PRELUDE TO .EvANcELINE"

PRELUDE TO "EvANGELINE"
This is the forest primeval. The muf-
muring pines and the hen1locks,
Bearded with moss, and in garments green
indistinct in the twilight,
Stand like Druids Of old, with voices sad
and prophetic,
Stand like harper's boar, with boards that
rest on their bosoms.
Lend from its rocky caverns the deep
voiced neighboring ocean
Speaks, and in accents disconsolate an
swers the wall of the forest.
This is the forest primeval; but where
are the hearts that beneath it
Leaped like the roe, when he hears in the
woodland the voice of the huntsman?
Where is the thatch-roofed village. the
home of Acadian farmers
Men whose lives glided on like rivers that
water the woodlands,
Darkened by shadows of earth, but reflect
ing an image of heaven?
Waste are those pleasant farms, and the
farmers forever departed!
Scattered like dust and leaves, when the
mighty blasts of October
Seize them, and whirl chem aloft, and
sprinkle them far Ger the ocean,
Naught but tradition remains of the beau 4
tiful village of Grand-Pre.
Ye who believe in affection that hopes,
and endures, and is patient,
Ye who believe in the beauty and strength
of woman's devotion
List to the mournfuI tradition still sung
by the pines of the forest;
List to the Tale of Love in Acadie, home
of the Happy.
POSTLUDE
Still stands the forest primeval; but far
away from its shadow;
Side by side, in their nameless graves, the
lovers are sleeping.
Under the humble walls of the little Catho-
lie churchyard,
In the heart of the city, they lie, unknown
and unnoticed.
Daily the tides of life go ebbing and flow
ing beside them,
Thousands of throbbing hearts, where
theirs are at rest and forever,--
Still stands the forest primeval; but un-
der the shade of its branches
DwelIs another race; with other customs
and language.
Only along the shore of the mournful and
misty Atlantic
Linger few Acadian peasants, whose
fathers from exile
Wandered back to their native land to die
in its bosom.
In the 6sherman's cot the wheel and the
loom are still busy;
Maidens still wear their Norman caps and
their kirtles of homespun,
And by the evening FIRE repeat Evan
geline story,
While from its rocky caverns the deep
voiced, neighboring
Speaks, and in accents disconsolate, an
swers the wall of the forest.

What We Forget
Between
Is and SO

Schools teach, and nearly every home applies
the rule against coffee and tea for children.
When middle age comes, great many
people remember the facts about the caffeine
drug Of coffee and tea, and how its regular use
NAV disturb health. Often they have cause to
remember what it has done to them.
How much better it would be not TO forget
and avoid the penalties!
Postum is pure cereal beverage delightful,
and safe for any age-ar any time. Good for
breakfast at home for all the family; good for
lunch at the club or restaurant; good with the
evening meal; good with late night dinner
good on any occasion. Postum satisfies, and it
never harms
Whynot be friendly with health, all the time?

LAWYERS ELYSIUM
NEARING COMPLETION
Buildings Finished for Club De
signed to Be Great Home
of Legal Research.
By the Associated Press.

ANN ARBOR, December 20.-The
Lawyers Club. designed by the Uni
versity of Michigan to be the out
standing place in the Western Hem
isphere for legal research, has COM
pleted its buildings. They are the
gift of William w. Cook, a lawyer of
New York and a Michigan graduate.
Dean Henry NJ. Bates OF the Michigan
law department, has said of this club
When the whole project 10 COM
pleted and operative we shall have an
equipment and an organization for
the development OF lawyers of high
class, lawyers fitted to become leaders,
never before attained in legal edu-
cation anywhere. When we shall have
completed our library, outstanding &
among law Libraries OF the Western
Hemisphere for its comprehensive
scope, with the living rooms avail
able for visitors, the opportunity for
judges and practicing lawyers to
come here and study their cases and
prepare briefs will be so unusual
that a substantial stream of guests
may be expected. They will have ac-
cess to the great library, will have
quarters in which they may dictate
or consult with assistants and also
opportunity to consult with the spe-
'cialists in various legal fields who
make up our law faculty"
The plans for the library, now only
partly realized, include complete data
on the legal beginnings of the United
States; aso on the beginning OF all
constitutional governments; activities
of all constitutional conventions;
complete records OF all cases involv-
ing international law and methods
OF procedure in courts Of all countries
on the globe.

BALTIMORE, December 20.-Fif-
teen thousand cottontail rabbits will
be released in Maryland during the
first three months of 1925. according g
TO State Game Warden E Lee lie
Compte. Contracts recently have been
made for purchase of the rabbits.
which will be brought from Missouri
and Kansas.
There were $4,000 rabbits released
this year by the State game depart
ment. Efforts to replenish the rabbit
supply in the State have been made
during the past two years, It was
said.
While there is no way of ascertain
ing definitely the total number OF rab-
bits killed by hunters, investigation
by the State game department led to
an estimate OF more than 500. 900
killed last year Except under espe-
cially adverse conditions, which can
not be predetermined, the natural
propagation of rabbits plus the i'm
portation. should prevent any lessen
ing in the number of the animals.
The State game department will not
pay bounties on trapped rabbits as it
has been doing for the two previous
seasons.
During the 1922 and 1923 seasons
Mr.. LIE Compte paid a dollar for each
live rabbit trapped during the open
hunting season and released after the
hunting season closed.
