Gathered by Our Special
Correspondent.

Warren lodge No. 4, F. & A. NJ, was
well represented at the Dubuque Oxus
Grotto picnic held at Platteville last
Thursday, August II. Every one en-
jOyed the festivities with a good time
and good fellowship and enjoyed the
hospita 'ity of the residents of Plates
Vile Baseball, horseshoe pitching
and other athletic contests were put
on but had to be cut short on account
of the excessive heat. In order to in
crease acquaintanceShip among the
members prizes were offered WiscOn-
sin MasOns introducing themselves to
individuals named by a committee.
Yves Hymer of Potosi introduced him
self to Prophet Chas. Falkenhamer
and was awarded a box Of cigars.
The members of Warren Lodge No 4,

While excavating on the Burlington
road down near Blake station few
miles below Potosi one day last week
railroad employees unearthed a small
CT of n Ioo+
first supposed to have been there for
couple Of hundred years, at least an
inscription gives a date of 1886. 1t is
in a good state of preservation. Rev.
FIR. Scheffer went down and viewed
the statue and gave his opinion that
from the lay of the ground it had not
been there more than zen or fifteen
years. A gang of Italian laborers
worked for the railroad company at
about that time and it is presumed
that the statue was placed there by
them. (The judge thus, in matter
Of-fact manner, disposes Of the Herald
interesting and romantic story of the
discovery of the shrine to be noted on
our front page. However, we will let
the story stand. 1t is much more. in
teresting to believe that some white
haired and black shocked French
father, with reyerent hands erected
the shrine while his dusky Indian con-
Verts stood in mute awe and watched
the holy office. Yes, the prosaic Judge
shall rule this column alone)

failure from the side-splitting antics
of the Youngsters. DR.. Bernhardt

'nigger dancer" but when he made
his appearance as the first number on
the program, the audience or KIDS
yelled and shouted so at his makeup
that the little fellow go frightened
ana refused to perform. The magic
box sure had the bunch guessing.
The boys are going to put on another
show later and are already rehears-
ing some new acts They charged
one cent admission and the total re-
ceipts were $1.0S. The interested
parties cleared SC each. Guess there

LIFE'S EQUIPMENT
Copyright, 1922, by Edgar A. Guest.

Here's how l figure it out" says he
with my ears to hear and my eyes to see
And my legs to walk and my hands to work
And head to bow and cap to jerk,
Whenever dame that | know goes by
It's well equipped for this life am |.
Kings and princes and high and low
Have noses to smell when the blossoms blow
And eyes to see but don't suppose
A king smells more with his royal nose
or sees more charm with his kingly eye
In the pink of the orchard blooms than l.
But eyes and ears and legs and hands
Don't always follow the same commands,
And some find beauty in dollar bills,
And some in the streams and the misty hills;
Some people hear nothing but mortal words
And some tuned to the songs of birds.
Some grapple with facts that stiff and cold,
some hands tender and others rough,
And some are gentle and some are gruff;
But each must follow lifes pathway through
Doing the things which he likes to do.
Now find Joy when tramp about,
Up hill and down, for my legs stout,
And my ears and eyes can pick up things
That are maybe lost to the wisest kings;
And I'm always grateful when day is through
That Pm built for the things which like to do"
