And virtue punish, sin reward.
While judgment slumbers, justice

And then some day mighty hand

No little gods shall rule the land.
But God shall rule, and men atone
The little gods are many-lust,
Extravaganza and idleness,

And fippant speech, immodest dress
The little gods shall rule awhile
Their little women. little men
Ind then the Only God will smile
And set the world to rights again.

phrases has originated.
l suspect that il had some sort of
a military application in the begin,
nlng, that it meant that a soldier
should always face the front where
the band was playing and where the
action was going on.
There are, as l understand il, only
two explanations for soldier being
shot in the back.
One Is that one of his own men
TOO excited to take proper aim, wound
ed him unintentionalIy. The other is
that he had his back to the enemy
and was running away.
The fellow that is facing the music
never gets hit in the back.
That is just as true off the field
OF battle as it is on it, And it proves
that there is only one way to fight and
that is facing the foe squarely.
You never can evade REAL trou-
BILE. You may defeat it. You may
overcome what seems insuperable
But to do that you have to FIGHT
it, not FEAR it.
And the best way to battle any /
thing is to face it squarely, fight it
fairly.
III you ever saw two boxers in the
ring and one of them fought with
the side of his body towards the
other. you will have noticed perhaps
that the man who fought sideways

that was farthest from his opponent.

forth as clear and sweet as before.

Miss F'agan and Mr.. Osborne shared
the stage with their fellow musician,

in unison with the recreation of their

came in double measure. The recreation
was absolutely identical with the orig
