Lies Little Ironies
Some of 'life's little ironies: :" The
fact that letters to GrantwoOd or
Edgewater posted in Palisade have to
be sent first to Hoboken, then back to
their destinations. Can you beat it?
No. except in Edgewater or Grantwood,
where letters for Palisade have to go
through the same roundabout fOrmali-
ties. 1t is all easy to understand
when You know why the necessity eX-
lists, which is that there is no other
way to get letters to these points, for
the reason that there are no carriers.
The trolley cars take the mail bags to
Hoboken, and there being very little
mail for these points named, it is not
of enough consequence to make up spe-
cial pouches. Besides, this is an era
of progress.

I WANT YOU
By ARTHUR L. GILLIAN
For the Palisadian


I want you when the shades of falling, ny
And purpling shadows drift the land;
When birds to loving mates calling
I want the soothing softness of your hand.
when the stars shine above me,
And Heavens flooded with the bright moonlight
you with your and lips to love me
Turnout the wonder watches of the night.
want you when in dreams I still remember
The ling ring of your kss-for old times sake; ~
With all your gentle ways, sweetly tender,
l you in the morning when wake
I want you when the day is at its noontime,
Sun-steeped and queor drenched with sheets of RAM
1 want you when the bloom in June-tme;
you when the volets come again.
want you when my soul is thrilled with passion; e
I you when Pm weary and depressed;
1 want you when in lazy slumbrous fashion
My senses need the haven of your breast. 4
I want you when thru field and wood Pm roaming;
1 want you when Pm standing the shore;
I you when the Summer birds homing-
And when they've fown--I want you and more.
l you dear, thru every changing season;
I you with a with a smile
1 want you more than any rhyme
l want you, want you, want you-all the while.

THE TOILER'S INSPIRATION
By CHARLES THOMAS LOGAN

By CHARLES THOMAS LOGAN
(Republished by Request.)
The busy men and women, too, who toll
All day with purpose clean and intent right
Are to catch the incense when they rest
Which from labor right performed and best.
Whoever works with head upift and high,
Is first to catch the beauty of the sky
There are dull weavers at the looms of life
Who onward toll through shadows that are rife
And have ending in the west; they sigh,
"The days works fnished-the rest is nigh"
They do not have the spirit the strength
To raise their heads to their fullest length.
Oh hapless hearts! Did you but only know!
There is cherished hope that does not glow
The brighter for the higher, nobler thought
Your labor strong and true ideals have wrought
If made to march as others do,
The clouds at last will let the sunlight through.
You may not know, but you with loving ease,
Dispense sweet sunshine almost you please,
And lighter make the load you think SO hard
To bear; and also help to brighten those
Who fan would falter and give up the task
You do all, if only you but ask
There are no shadows that can come to us, -14.
Which will not pass if we but wait the hour;
No tears that will not dry if we but try
This PLAN to lift our hearts to the sky
Gods stars shining in the meadows there
Their light glows and everywhere
Gods purpose in the weaving pictures of
The trees and grass and violets love,
That humbly show their coors in the sun,
Is little things look upon
May come the thought revealed in Him and then y,
With conrte hearts we pause and say Amen!
If we go joyfully along the way
Of helping others all can may,
There is benedcton
That will not follow each and every plea
We make to God to keep us near His side,
Forever there to live forever there abide
Along the ways of life and in the fields,
Are glowing, matchess blooms that Nature yields
That sometimes shed their fragrance just for you,
Because thoughtless tramp them under shoe,
And do not catch their meaning as they go
The dullard mind finds nature
