C. COMPANY WANTS
MORE RECRUITS

Capt. r. j. Mcdonald is making
great plans for the taking of G Co.
to the Devils Lake encampment ON
June oath. The captain is decidedly
proud of his company and has every
reason to be as it is one of the best
in the state. G. Co. is one of the few
militia companies that is up to the
full enlistment strength of 1O2 men.
However, Capt. Mcdonald states that
he wants six more recruits to take
the place of those who will complete
their enilstments before June 10th as
he wants to go to encampment with
a full company. The militia camp will
be held at Devils Lake for two weeks
this summer, from June 10th to June
24th. Those who belong to the COM
pany are planning on a real good va
cation as the camp grounds are To-
Gated on the banks of the lake at
Chautauqua and all the pleasures of
summer resort life will be had. The
camp grounds are being cleaned up
and put in first class shape for the
arrival Of the troops and the boys
will be made comfortable in every
way for their stay at the lake. VAL
ley City has always been proud of G
Co., from the time of it's formation
years ago. 1t is one Of the best, if
not the best, in the state and if it is
possible for the company to 60 to the
encampment with the limit of 1O2
men it will reflect credit to this city.
If there are any young men in this
city or county who enjoy summer
camp life or who wish to enjoy the
benefits of military training, and be
paid for it, this will be a good OPP
portunity for them to join the COM
pany. However, only six men can be
accommodated at this time so speak
quick or you may be too late.

THE NURSERY
by Ellen Creelman

Every home, if possible, should con-
tain one room for the child's especial
use. Not that he must always be con-
fined to the nursery, or denied the
privileges of the entire home, but
that he may have the privacy of a
room in which to commence his edu-
cation through play uninterrupted by
many of the activities of the home.
The child should be required to
spend part of the time in the nur-
sery. This he will gladly do without
coercion, provided he has a pleasant
room, suitable toys and protection
from intrusion as he attempts to de-
velop his mind through play.
There should be a sunny exposure,
good ventilation and low windows pro-
tected against accidents. The child en-
joys pictures of the outside world as
seen from the windows. The blue sky,
the Wind-blown clouds, rain drops,
wind storms, sunbeams, flowers, trees,
and birds afford him a continuous
source of pleasure. In fact such pic
lures acted upon by his keen imagi-
nation frequently record more vital
and lasting impressions upon the
child's mind than those hung upon the
walls.
The walls and woodwork of the
nursery should be finished in soft har-
monious colors, while the utmost
cleanliness and neatness are neces-
sary.
The nursery walls may be relieved
by pictures Of interest to the child.
There is a wide selection of suitable
pictures from which to choose. But
there should always be a picture of
"Mother and Child" pictures of the
child's near-at-hand environment, hui
man life, plant life, animal life, nat
ural phenomena, also pictures illus
trating nursery rhymes. These should
not be hung Unfortunately upon the
walls, or they may destroy the beauty
of the room. Many pictures may be
kept in portfolios or presented
through picture books.
There should be growing plants in
the window boxes where bulbs and
seeds are frequently planted which the
child may care for. His interest in
them is natural and ought to be cher
ished.
The furniture should be simple,
with the chairs and tables of suitable
height placed correctly as regards
the light. Cushions are useful upon
the floor.
There should be cabinet with low
shelves and individual places for all
toys and play-materials. Every nurs-
cry should contain sand table.
The child should play as frequently
as possible in the open air, and be kept
away from the distractions of the
street.
The nursery should be an attractive
room, for the child learns more from
Incidental impressions than from di-
rect teaching. In fact the child's
whole environment should aid the nat
ural development of his mind: pro-
tecting him against undesirable i'm
pressions, guiding him happily to-
wards the goal Of education good
habits.

THE BLUE AND
THE GRAY
Francis Miles Finch

BY the flow of the inland river,
Where the fleets of iron have fled,
Where the blades of grave grass
CULVER,
Asleep are the ranks of the dead;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day.
Under the one, the blue;
Under the other, the gray.
u.
These in the robings of glory,
Those in the gloom of defeat,
All, with the battle blood CORY,
In the dusk of eternity meet;
Under the sod and the dew
Waiting the judgment day
Under the laurel, the blue;
Under the willow, the gray.
From the silence of sorrowful hours
The desolate mourners go,
Lovingly laden with flowers
Alike for the friend and the foe;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the roses, the blue;
Under the lilies, the gray.
So with an equal splendor
The morning sun-rays fall
With touch impartially tender,
On the blossoms blooming for all;
Under the sod and the dew
Waiting the judgment day
'Broidered with gold, the blue;
Mellowed with gold, the gray.
So, when the summer calleth
On forest and field of grain:
With an equal murmur falle!h
The cooling drip Of the rain;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Wet with the rain, the blue:
Wet with the rain, the gray.
Sadly, but not with upbraiding,
The generous deed was done;
In the storms of the years that are
fading,
No Drawer battle was won;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the blossoms, the blue;
Under the garlands, the gray.
No more shall the war-cry sever,
Or the winding rivers be red;
They Danish our anger forever
When they laurel the graves Of our
dead!
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Love and tears for the blue;
Tears and love for the gray. ;
