THE PRAIRIES

1 love the prairies broad and free,
For there know and there feel
My heart is not thing of STEEL
Lost in this tawny, fragrant sea
l breathe and hear that minstrelsy
Which Natures vibrant chords reveal,
And Natures tuneful songs appeal
To all that's best and good in me.
The stars, the clouds, the azure skies
And viewless vastness all combine
To broaden life; my spirit flies
Beyond the worlds low level line
Till, lost, forgetful of life's sighs,
1t dwells in miraged realms divine.

Where blooms the Wait-awhile flower

And the Some e-time-or-ot scents the

And the soft Go-easys grow?
1t lies in the Valley of What's -the-use,
In the Province of Let-her-slide;
That old ''tired feeling" is native there,
It's the home of the listless I-don't care,
Where the Put-it-off's abide.

IT'S TIME TO STOP

Sometimes, perhaps, when you're feeling
blue
As by-gone days are confronting you
When you're gloomy and sad and your
spirit is low
And your mind is wondering to and fro
When the trees and flowers and birds and
their song
Seem all out of place and utterly wrong
When man and beast you're trying to
shun
And you hide yourself at the sight of the
sun
When the things you once thought were
worth while to do
Seem trivial and base and even untrue
When glorious nature seems empty and
prone
And all your ambitions have vanished and
gone
It's time to stop!
And open your eyes and grit your teeth
And blame your condition on the cold or
the heath
Or anything else which comes to your
mind
Then sharply look forward-forget what's
behind
Don't bid the unwelcome visitor "stay"
Who clogs your brain and spoils your day
Who robs you of such which is justly
your due
Your right to iVe-if only you knew
How unselfsh nature with arms open wide
Bids you welcome to stop and abide
And share in her gifts of joy, not of sor-
By exchanging the past with the thoughts
of tomorrow.

inventions to the purposes of peace are at
work in many fields. The camoufage de-
partment of the navy plans to lessen the
the danger of collision at sea by painting
ships in way that will make it easier to
tell their true courses and that will in
crease their visibility. Microphones and
geophones, which used to reveal the
whereabouts of German guns, will help
to find imprisoned miners. Successful ex-
periments indicate that before long the
radiophone, which enabled men on the
ground to communicate with men in aero
planes, will be found in the front yards of
country houses. Poison gases are being
used in fighting insect pests.-Ex.

BASEBALL

Donahue, who pitched for the Saltwater
All Stars, last Saturday, held the local
swatters at bay, while his teammates
pounded out vistory of ~ to 7, in a
seven inning game. He was given ex-
cellent support which enabled him to keep
the ten hits he allowed pretty well scat
tered.
Thorn, who opened up the mound work
for the locals, lost control when his sup
port wabbled and after it had blown up
entirely in the second round he was taken
from the box and relieved by San, who
seemed to fare no better than his predeces-
sor. VOL pitched the last two innings of
the game and as he had no support at all,
his opponents were allowed to run the
bases at will.
Several hits were charged to the local
pitchers when they really should have
been classed as fielding errors. The book
of rules states that when fielder fails to
make any effort to field thrown or batted
ball he shall be charged with an error.
Several such instances as this occurred in
Saturdays game and especially so in batted
balls. Each and every time the fielder
was eliminated from an error and the
pitcher charged with hit. Hereafter
such errors will be credited to the fielder
who is responsible.
Saturdays fasco was a humiliating
defeat for the locals and hard one to
understand by the fans, and especially so,
by its coming at time when the locals
are at their best. AS the box score gives
a complete record of the game, we pass it
on to the readers to digest.

THE OLD BOG LANE

THE OLD BOG LANE
When the golden sun is setting, an the
twilight hour at hand,
And in waves of magic beauty phantom
night enfolds the land,
Then 1 let my thoughts go drifting far
beyond the Western main,
And in dreams again wander down the
Old Bog Lane.
Once again a barefoot "gosoon" by the
hawthorn hedge stray
Or I'm romping through the meadows
amid the new-mown hay;
An I'm list'ning as in old times, to the
softly-falling rain,
An hear the cuckoos calling, down the
Old Bog Lane.
/ can hear Bundoran Convent tolling out
the midday bell;
Hear the feathered songsters warbling in
the primrose dell;
Hear my colleen shyly whisper, as she
promised me again
That she'd always be my sweetheart by
the Old Bog Lane.
So I'm leaving here tomorrow, something's
Turing me away;
There's tugging at my heart-strings an
call must obey;
So I'm goin' back to Irelan' where in sun
shine or in rain
I'll find lovin' hearts to greet me near the
Old Bog Lane.
