Barney gazed into the face Of
Lucas Cullen who stared at him with

dim, pink light upon his skin lost a

Beyond the Profit of Today.

AT the general faculty meetings
which are held the first of each month
Superintendent Richards has been Civ
ing the teachers at least one practical
thought outside of the professional study
that the teachers are making. Last
Tuesday at the general faculty meeting
he read the following poem by Berton
Braley in which he emphasized the fol
lowing lines:
II seek for fortune. Lord. nor claim
To scorn the recompense l earn;
But help me- as l play the game,
To give the world it's just return"
And also:
"Guard me from thoughts of little men
Which blind the soul TO greater
things"
The entire poem reads as follows:
"Lord. give me vision that shall see
Beyond the profit of today
Into the years which are to be,
That I may take the larger way
OF labor and achievement; so
Help me fashion, staunch and sure,
A work my fellowmen shall know
As wrought to serve-and TO endure
l seek for fortune, Lord, nor claim
To scorn the recompense I earn;
But help me. as Ilay the game,
To give the world its just return,
Thou mad'st the earth for all of us;
Teach me. through struggle, strain
and stress
To win and do my share. for thus
Can profit lead to happiness.
Guard me from thoughts of little men
Which blind the soul TO greater
things:
Save me from SNUG content and then
From greed and selfshness it brings;
Aid me to join that splendid clan
of business men who seek to trace
A calm, considered worldng-plan
To make the world a better place.
LORD. let the faith Of these be mine,
A creed creative, simple true,
Let me but aid in their design,
Let me but share the work they do;
Teach me to hold this task above
All lesser thoughts within my ken,
That thus I may be worthy Of
The name Of Business Man. Amen

CAN GROW NEW TUSK IN YEAR
Discovery Is Made That the WalruS
May Prolong Worlds Vanishing
Supply Of Ivory.

A remarkable discovery at the seal
rOOkeries on Pribilof islands may pro
long the worlds vanishing ivory sup
ply.
Last summer an obnoxious bull
walrus was mauled by government
seal keepers, and In the fight one OF
its long tusks was broken of This
spring the same recalcitrant mammal
returned, and to the surprise Of both
natives and attendants the tusk had
grown out five inches, the end still
showing the ragged edge of the break.
II is now believed that An annual
crop of this excellent ivory can he
harvested by cutting Off one-half of
one tusk each year from the bull
walrus. The one left intact Is used
by the mammal in digging clans and
sea food In year the stub would
have grown out enough to serve as
pickax, so the other tusk could be
sacrificed for the fancies Of man.
Walrus ivory Is In great demand
in China and Japan where II Is
utilized for small carvings.
