"Th.s Also Shall Pass Away"

When morning sunbeams round me
shed
their light and influence blest,
When flowcry paths before me spread
And life in smiles is drest;
il darkling lines that dim each ray
l read, This, too, Shall pass away"
When murky clouds o'erhang the sky
Far down the vale of years.
And vainly looks the fearful eye,
When not a hope appears,
Lo. characters of glory play
Mid shades. This, too, shall pass
away"
Blest words. that temper pleasure
beam,
And tighten sorrows gloom,
That early sadden youths bright
dream,
And clear the old mans tomb,
Unto that world he We my stay,
That world which shall not pass away

LAWLESSNESS

Reviewing the stupendous collapse
of public order which results from
the bootlegging and blind-pigging
era under which the whole country
lies stricken, nothing in the sorrowful
narrative is so filled with poignancy
and condemnation as the sacrifice of
youth On the altar of illicit greed
Youth is the agent of the bootleg
ger and of the blind pig. Youth
idling in the poolroom and at the
"soft drink" stand is the ready con-
spirator in the profitable contest
against law. Youth, drifting uneasi-
ly on the fringe of social conformity,
is the inevitable captive of the "easy
road" The story of prohibition vio-
lation is the story of youth, thous-
ands and thousands of them plying
their illicit trade, running their risks
of prison and death, and hardening
themselves to a lifetime of outlawry.
What manner of men do these be-
come, these young men who, with
wealth and indulgence as the prize,
throw their energies into the scales
of lawlessness What is the atmos-
phere they create? What of the chill
dren they bring into the world? What
of the future effect on this country's
national life of a new generation OF
men and women, born and bred into
a tradition of contempt for the law
and tutored only in the desperate con-
ditions of the new underworld?
These are the questions which must
root every decent citizen in his tracks
and make him examine the depths of
his heart for the solution.-Sandusky
Register.

raided several times in the recent

slick enough to do the job and make
their escape without being detected
or leaving any clues behind.

Plan to Protect Game and Ade-
quate Hunting Reserve for
.. Northwest.
SEVENTEEN MEN FORM
FIRST AUTHENTIC BODY
Hunters Requested to Join in the
Program Started by Gopher
Gun Club.

The sport lover of st. Paul will be
pleased to know of the organization
of the Gopher Gun club last Friday
evening. The primary purpose of
this club is to protect game, fish and
wild birds of all varieties. Together
with this initial plan is the securing
of adequate hunting grounds to meet
the demand of the Northwest's s sports
man.
The acuteness Of the hunting facili-
ties for the average man, the willful
destroying of wild game and meas
ures to combat the two were discus
sed at the meeting. If the well laid
plans of the organization materialize
as expected. The race in the Twin
Cities will have hunting club to be
proud Of.
To Secure Acreage.
The purchase OF six hundred acres
by the club will be used as a hunting
reserve and fishing point. Cottages
will be erected where members can
go, take their families or invite their
friends to spend an enjoyable vaca-
tion or weekend trip. If the out
right purchase of this acreage proves
inexpedient then a lease will be Sc
cured. A local banking association
has agreed to lease one thousand
acres to the club on terms and con-
ditions that can be successfully met.
The necessity of such plan should
be obvious to every race person in
the Twin Cities and the far-sighted-
ness of the charter members Is to be
commended in their undertaking of
so necessary a program.
Seventeen Charter Members.
Seventeen men were at the first
meeting, which proved to be one of
great enthusiasm. The officers elect
ed were Grant Bush. president; John
Finanza, secretary, and Jack Black,
treasurer. The Gopher Gun club will
meet every two weeks, the next meet
ing to be held at the home Of John
Finanza, st. Anthony avenue and
Louis street, Tuesday evening, Sept.
Is. All persons desirous of becoming
members are asked to be present at
this meeting. The tentative program
of the season will be among the
topics of discussion.
