SAHARA NOT ALWAYS A DESERT

A French explorer and geographer
claims to have found evidence that great
river once flowed across what is now the
Sahara desert to the Mediterranean. The
present lake Tchad, he believes, represents
what was formerly the backwater of this
river. The level of this lake is not con-
slant in modern times; in the past IS years
its waters have been slowly falling though
at times after periods of unusual rainfall
the lake has spread beyond its usual bed.
Neolithic relics which have been found
indicate that prosperous communities once
dotted what is now vast parched desert
region.-Ex.

ME AM BILL

AT the end of the day jes' like to set still
In my chair on the porch and think of old
Bill.
Bill was a Teller that used to know,
We was mighty good friends in the long,
long ago.
And old Bill, somehow, tho he didn't talk
Had lots o good thoughts, an his actions
was such
That you jes' kinda felt that in him you'd
found one
That was tryin' to live like it ought to be
done.
Bill was considerable older than me,
But that didn't keep him from tryin' to see
If somehow, when everything seemed to
60 wrong,
He could change tears to smiles and sighs
into song
Jes' seemed like his life, which was too
short by far,
Was spent helpin others to find some
bright star
That 'ud guide 'em an cheer 'em, an help
'em to find
Some way O putin their sorrows behind.
Bill has been gone now fer many year,
But ketch myself oft wishin' he was still
here,
With his smile and his song and his kind
quiet ways,
To brighten and tighten the cloudier days.
But he's gone-old Bill's gone to his long,
final rest
Seems kinda too bad-but Gods ways are
best.
So now of an evenin' jes' like to set still
And think DER and DER of the days spent
with Bill.
There's something bout mem'ry that's hard
to explain,
Sometimes it brings pleasure, then again
it brings pain.
But the past is all gone, amt no way. to
change,
An the future we're facin' is all kinda
strange.
So 1 keep on rememberin' the past that
was good
An tryin to live day by day as should,
In the hope that the future that lies ahead
still
Will bring us together once more-me and
Bill.

MY FRIEND BILL

have the very best of friends
A man can ever boast;
He shelters me, supplies my coal
And buys my steak or roast;
He wraps me in an overcoat
When Winter winds are chill,
And treats me to a good cigar
This friend, whose name is "Bill."
He gives me books and magazines,
And tickets to the show,
And makes my balance in the bank
To fair proportions grow.
I'll never want for bed or board,
Or wherewithal to fill
NV pipe, while l can clasp him close
My friend, the Dollar Bill!

MY PHILOSOPHY

l allus argy that man
Who does about the best he can
Is plenty good enough to suit
This lower mundane institute,
No matter eff his daily walk is subject for
his neighbors' talk,
And critic minds of ev'ry whim
Jest all get up and 60 for him.
It's natcheral enough, guess,
When some gifts more and some gifts less,
For them-uns on the slimmest side
To claim it amt fair divide;
And I've knowed some to lay and wait,
And git up soon and set up late,
To detch some feller they could hate
Fer goin at faster gait.
The signs is bad when folks commence
A-fndin' fault with Providence,
A-balkin' cause the earth don't shake
AT every prancin step they take.
No man is great til he can see how less
than little he would be
Ef, stripped to self, and stark and bare,
He hung his sign out anywhere.
My doctern is to lay aside
Contentious and be satisfied
Jest do yer best, and praise or blame
That follows counts jest the same.
I've allus noticed great success
Is mixed with trouble, more or less,
And it's the man who does the best
Who gets more kicks than all the rest.
James Whiteomb Riley.
