IN MEMORY OF GEORGE TRAIL.
"The day has come, not gone, Thy
sun has risen, not set;
Thy life is now beyond the reach of
death or change,
Not ended-but begun.
o noble SOUL o gentle heartl Hail
and farewell"
George w. Trail died at his home
near Lexington Saturday morning
April End after suffering for two
weeks from a wound inflicted while
attending strictly to business.
Funeral services were held at the
home April A. at 8 p. M, conducted
by Rev. Waters and other ministers
of Lexington.
A good, noble man is gone, a duti-
full son, a loving husband an indul-
gent father, and a firm friend.
Yes, we know he was a true friend
by the reciprocation of Friendship
displayed during his illness and at his
death. Scores of men and women
came to pay tribute to his memory,
words failed to. express their love and
sympathy, so they heaped flowers
Gods messengers of love upon his
casket and about the room in which
he lay. Flowers, beautiful flowers of
every hue. Surely there was not a
loving word unexpressed, for there
were pillows, sprays, wreaths and
baskets Of flowers, the handles Of
which were entwined with tulle that
floated out over the blossoms like a
veil that seemed to soften the whis-
pers of love and sympathy that each
blossom uttered.
This multitude Of friends did not
dispense when the services at the
home were over, but followed him to
his last resting place each one anx-
ious to do n thing more to show
their love for him, and their great
sympathy for the dear little wife and
ten year old son who are left to
mourn his loss and to struggle on
through life without the love and
tender care he has so unselfishly law
ished upon them. A sainted mother
and a father who have travelled down
the stream of time and are resting
at the rivers brink, leaned so heavi-
ly upon him and looked to him for
help in their declining days, they too
are robbed of his priceless gift he so
tenderly shared with them.
Little wife, He who gives beauty to
the stars, fragrance to the flowers,
and life to the child, gives gifts of
unmeasured value to thee, so think
not that He hears not your petitions.
Unanswered We, the prayer your lips
have pleaded,
In agony of heart these past few
days.
Does faith begin to fail, is life declin-
ing.
And think YOU all in vain those fall
ing tears?
Say not the Father has not heard
your prayer
You shall have your desire, some
time, somewhere
Unanswered yeti Though when you
first presented
This one petition at the Fathers
throne,
1t seemed you could not wait the time
Of asking
So anxious was your heart to have
it done.
II years sha pass Iheh uo iiol ues-
pair,
For God will answer you, sometime,
somewhere.
Unanswered yet? But you are not
unheeded,
The promises of God forever stand
To Him our days and years alike are
equal
Have faith in Godl 1t is your Lords
command.
Hold on to Jacobs angel, and your
prayer
Shall bring a blessing down, some
time, somewhere.

various subcommittees OF the Dali

Mansion House. His coming was merely

slackening OF public interest in these
sessions. evidenced BY the failure II

CareIessness of Youth.

Here is the problem and programme
for youth to shape. and SO far. | am
bound to say, youth does not seem TO
be bothering its head very much.
From all those crowds Of youth now
playing on the seashores of countries
east and west no message comes to the
old men who in Supreme Council and
League of Nations conferences ana in
Cabinets are arranging matters which
will vitally affect their interests. their
bodies and their souls.
The young men and women of to-
day seem to have learned nothing
from the awful lesson Of the war and
to have no philosophy beyond that of
present pleasure and the same ambi-
tions as those of the world before the
war.
would like to see an international
council of youth, not revolutionary
but liberated, drawing up it's own pro-
gramne. formulating its own decisions
and shaping its future policy while
President Harding's peace conference
is in session. ! would like 10 see its
profession Of faith. for upon that more
than upon the Washington conference
depends the future peace and happi-
ness of mankind.
If il is the old fierce scramble for
wealth. the old conflict between classes
for power, the old superstition that in
crease in luxury means increase in
happiness. then there is not much
hope. But there would be greater
hope if youth, demanding happiness as
q natural right Of humanity declared
its faith in service for the human
family in friendly. scientific coopera-
ton rather than in blind, brutal con-
fiict between nations and classes. in
fair reward for good work, in health
Of body, in beauty as the ideal Of life
in honor as the highest wage of State
in tolerance as the price Of liberty and
in good fellowship as the duty of civil
liZed communities.
Youth should be scheming how to
translate such abstract ideas into ac-
tual practice by education, by coopera-
tive industry. by town planning, by re-
placing our heritage of ugly things
through a renaissance Of arts and
crafts. bv bringing a greater chance
for happiness TO a multitude Of work
ors. by cleansing civilization Of its
plague spots and of inherited and un-
natural evils, and by the rescue Of
stricken peoples whose malady Is a
reproach to the world.
