When FIRST bcbcld her. her face was fair.
And long were her tresses Of raven-back hair,
When | played in my babyhood glcc.
But anon the roses began 20 fade
And streaks oi gray the long years made
As she tocd and planned for me.
But in my childhood did not know
What made the deepcut wrinkles grow.
As went my thoughtcss way.
Nor did interpret those anxious tears
That glistened with hope for future years
When my mother knccled to pray.
Nor could ! in manhood quite realize
What message OF love cleaned in her eyes
AS | turned TO face the world.
But I've since felt her presence many time
And with il courage and hope sublime
AS the banner I've unurcd
And at last the lapsed years have taught me TO see
What that mother of mine has meant 10 me,
AS I've climbed the rugged ways:
For all that am or can hope to be
Are the fruits OF the virtues and hopes tina, she.
Implanted in childhood days.
She's slept the slumber OF peace ior years
But often see her through memories tears,
AS gently she soothcs my pain
And at times when the tcmptcr has almost won,
Her soft voice says, BE good boy, SON
And fight the battle again.

water were salty to the taste, but
it was understood from officials OF
the company, that it was water that
had come from strata of sand above
the reported oil sand, which flow
had been cut off by the setting OF

1t is entirely possible that in bail

PEASANTS ARE killed
FOR TRYING TO EVADE
RUSSIAN GRAIN TAX
Especial to The Palladium

ROSTOFF-ON-DON, Russia, Dec. Is.
The death penalty is being inflicted
in the Kuban and Don districts upon
peasants who attempt TO evade the
grain tax which the government has
instituted instead of money taxes. AT
Krasnodarsk a peasant and two Off
Gals whom he bribed to assist him in
lodging the grain levy were all shot,
and radical steps are being taken
throughout South Russia, to check the
banditry which the Moscow govern
ment denounces as nothing more than
an effort to escape taxation.
General Budenny, the cavalry leader
who figured so prominently in the
fighting against General Wrangel and
the Poles, has been made a member
of the central council in the Caucasus
which is endeavoring to check move
ments against Moscow government
authority. In a recent report he an
nounced that the best results are OBJ
tanned by taking hostages in the var
ious villages and forcing the villagers
themselves to capture the bandit lead
ers and surrender them. Where the
villagers have refused to give up the
bandits it has sometimes been neces-
sary to destroy the villages as a warn
ing to other offenders.
