Bruce Telford left the city with a
well-stored suitcase. The next after
noon saw him ringing the doorbell Ut
the old mansion where he had spent
so many happy hours. The servant
recognized him with a start and
showed him into the parlor.
There were old familiar aspects to
the room, and there IN the alcove was
the special corner always given to
dead Mr.. Burton. The caller even
recognized his desk, his armchair. his
favorite books. 1t looked as though
this was a spot sacred to the memory
of the beloved parent, preserved as Of

Telford took up one of the volumes.
He instantly recognized classical
author from whom Mr.. Burton had
frequently quoted. Almost uncon-
sciously he turned over the leaves.
He smiled in sad retrospect as he
noted a line that had been favorite
with the dead man, and. following the
context, turned over new leaf
No marvel that he started! That
volume had probably remained I'M

pages lay three letters. They were
yellow and faded with time. Each
one bore an uncanceled stamp. Un-
doubtedly given to Mr.. Burton to mail,

placed them temporarily in the book
and they had never been mailed.

said: ITS not like ours"
Mrs. Case asked: "What kind Of

Mrs. Case said: "Why, 1 never

John Quincy Adams was a stjckler
for regular hours at the White House.
Promptly at ten O'clock every night
all lights had to be blown out. He
believed in going to bed early and
getting up early. During the summer
months he arose at four o'clock, and,
accompanied by his son John, who
was his secretary. would hustle down
to the Potomac and indulge in a good
swim for an hour or two, while Mrs.
Adams was overseeing the prepare
ton Of good breakfast for them.
When it became too cold for SWIM
ming he remained in bed until six
o'clock, and would then take a brisk
walk up TO the capitol and back be-
fore breakfast.
Adams was great student Of as
tronOmy, and had a telescope on the
roof Of the White House so that he
could study the heavens at night. He
planted many trees in the White House
grounds and urged members Of con-
gress to collect seeds and send them
to their constituents.

Ring Out the Old!
Ring II, the New!

ND now we hear the tollns bell,
a That sounds the Old Years dying knell.
And safe within the fleeing past
Its good and evil will be cast,
To oft return, in future hour,
Brought by retentive memory's power.
And what the New Year, ere its close,
May have in store, no mortal knows.
But If all men were good and true,
And would their Christian duty do,
The world would seem to hear again
"Sweet peace on earth, good n i'll to menl"
Then all could shout, the whole world through,
ring out the Old! Ring in the Newt"
Nh, THINK of those bound do wn by sorrow,
" Now longing for some glad tomorrow
To tighten up the heavy load,
That they must bear upon ife's road,
Who journey on from cay to day,
Along life's cold and rugged way,
Still longing, as they onward tread,
For deeds undone words unsaid,
Though friendly smile or kindly band
Two things at every ones command
Would help to seothe the gn.wns pain,
Or break the links Of sorrows chain.
So, Christian friends, your duty do

" Some think that ignorance is bliss,
While ruthless hands and scheminx fools
Make rule or ruin their vicious tools3
With no respect for God man,
Destructive methods their plan,
Not using reason for defense,
Resort they to fools violence,
Imaginary wrongs they'd right,
BY senseless torch dynamite.
Oh, rulers of our mighty land,
Check this vile scourge with f'rmer hand!
Then tranquil peace will come in leu
Ring out the Old! Ring in the Newt
DEAR this in mind, what ser befall,
= The hand Divine rules over all.
And when we greet the glad New Year.
With all its joy and social cheer,
Let each resolve his best to give,
That this old world may better live.
And as we go but once this way, :.
Let's shed sweet sunshine's golden ray.
And bring good cheer to hearts bowed down
By adversity's cold, sullen frown.
Then when the sands of life run,
Well hear the welcome, "Well, we'll done!
Come, reap the joys prepared for you!"
Ring out the Old! Ring in the New!
