LIFE FROM DEATH
Changing. fading. falling. flying.
From the homes that gave them birth,
Autumn leaves In beauty dying
Seek the mother breast of earth,
Soon shall all the songisss wood
SILVER in the deepening snow.
Mourning in its solitude
Like some Rachel in hcr woe.
Slowly sinks yon evening sun.
Softly wanes the cheerful light.
And. the twelve hours labor done.
Onward sweeps tbs solemn night.
So on many q home Of sadness
Falls. oh. death. thy winter sioom:
Stands there still in doubt and sadness
Many Mary at the tomb.
But ~ genial spring returning
Will the sylvan pomp renew.
And tho newborn fame Of morning
kindle ralnbows In the dew.
So shall God. His promise keeping.
To the world by Jesus given.
AXE our loved ones. sweet'y sleeping
At tho breaking dawn OF heaven.
Light from darkness. life from death.
Dies the NO': not the soul;
From the chrysalis beneath
Scars tha Rpirit to Its goal.
Father. when tho nournprs come
With the slowly moving bier,
Weeping at the open tomb
For the lovely and tho dear.
Breathe into the bleeding heart
Hopes that die not with the dead,
And the peace OF Christ impart
When the Joys OF life have fed,

Philadelphia. October 10. 1922.
THE RED RIVER woYAaEuR
BY John Greenieaf Whittier
Out ana In the river Is winding
The links OF Its long. red chain.
Throush belts OF durky pine-land
And gusty leagues Of plain.
Only at times . smoks-wreath
With the drifting cioud-rack Joins
The smoke Of tho hunting lodges
or tho wild Assiniboins.
Drearily blows the north wind
From the land o: ice and snow;
Tho eyes that look are weary,
And heavy the hands that row.
And with one foot on the water,
And one upon the shore.
The Angel Of Shadow gives warning
That day shall be no more.
Is It the clang Of wild sesssi
Is It tho Indians yell
That lends to tho voice Of the north wind
The tones OF far-off bell?
1ha voyaseur smiles as he listens
To the sound that grows apacs;
Well he knows the vesper ringing
OF tho bells OF st. Bonifacs
The bells Of the Roman mission,
That call from their turret twain.
TO the boatman on the river.
To tho hunter on tho plain
Even so In our mortal journey s,IS&
The bitter north winds blow. - ~
And thus upon lifes Red River 'yas
Our hearts as oarsmen row. "i'
And when the Angel of Shadow
Rests his feet on wave and shore.
And our eyes grow dim with watching
And our hearts faint at the oar.
Happy IL he who hearsth
The signal OF his release
All. the bells OF the Holy City.
The chimes Of eternal peace!
The above poem was suggested by reading
the following passage In "Minnesota and
pass slowly along the lonely road that leads
me from thee. Selkirk. mine eyes do turn
continually to gaze upon thy smiling. golden
feids, and thy lofty towers. now Furnished
with the rays of the departing sun. whils
the sweet vesper bell rcvcrb"ratcs afar and
strikes SO moarnfully pleasant upon mine
ear. feel satisfied that, though absent
thousands Of weary miles. my thoughts will
always dwell on thee with rapturous emo
tlons."
At midnight. with tho lSst stroke OF the
clock unhering the 17th Of December. 1891.
The eighty fourth anniversary OF Whittier's
birth, tho bells Of St. Bonface rang a joy

STRONG PLEA FOR REDUCTION
IN THE COAL FREIGHT RATES

George II. Gushing. for tho American
Wholesale Coal association. declared
that railroad earnings would be SUM-
c!eut to allow sharp reductions In the
rates on coal with the resumption OF
normal traffic. He nxed the measure OF
the reasonable rate as not moro than
nifty per cent In excess OF April 1917,
charges. and estimated that tho average
annual production OF the next nve years
would be above FIVE hundred million
tons. Railroad revenues from this
source. he said. would be far morN than
required to maintain a six percent re-
turn on their capital.
+. J.. Kelley. for The state OF South
Dakota. discussed the various increases
granted on coal during the four years
to date, as compared with the drop In
price OF agricultural products and said
that the charges now were excessive
and unreasonable. and not justified -
