WHAT Is FAILURE?

By H. E. Prall
A bold youth determined to make some new mark
A high mountain climbed, a new light in the dark;
He did not succeed before he was dead,
But, because of his courage, the world stepped ahead.
AS fearless that brave band who neer reached their goal
AS that man who won and discovered ''the pole"
The man who gets credit for blazing a trail
May owe his success to a thousand who fail.
A traveller, wandering, dying of thirst,
His life is a desert, and doing its worst.
His wandering ceased, he is digging a well,
He died at his task, but we drink where he fell.
A farmer is doggedly working his land,
That he's failed" is apparent on every hand.
He slaves and he struggles until he is dead,
But, because of his labor, the world has its bread.
One came to a river and forded its tide,
Then paused in his course on the other side;
He buided a bridge but his life he lost
While we who have followed have safely crossed.
The civilization of this mighty earth
Has risen and prospered in things of real worth.
Because of a Form to a rugged cross" nailed;
Because of the efforts of those who have failed"

Snow Penetrating Mississippi
Valley Blocks Roads
in Wide Area.
BY the Associated press.

By the Associated Press
KANSAS CITY. March 27.-One life
had been claimed and several persons
were missing as Spring blizzard swirled
deeper into the Mississippi Valley to-
day, leaving roads blocked by snow over
wide strip north from the Texas Pam
handle to the Dakotas.
The fatality attributed to the storm
was reported from North Dakota. Bud
Fountain, 13-year-old boy. caught in
the blizzard when he went to put his
dog to bed in barn near Red Cloud,
Nebr., was missing. Searchers also had
made vain efforts to find John Ukelsa,
baker, lost near Gordon, Nebr.
Cold Penetrates Texas.
Near zero temperatures extended into
Texas, with high wind piling up heavy
drifts OF snow through the western por-
lions of Oklahoma. Kansas and Me-
braSka as the storm moved eastward.
Trains were delayed and highway traf-
nc virtually stopped.
Much colder weather was forecast for
the States along the Mississippi to-
night and tomorrow. with snow pre-
dicted southwark in Tennessee and
Kentucky and freezing weather along
the Gulf Coast of Texas and Louisiana.
Mercury readings were below zero at
many places in the Dakotas. Fargo re-
ported four inches of snow Light snow
was falling at st. Paul, and Chicago re-
ceived a mixture of rain and snow with
much colder weather predicted.
Highways Left Blocked.
No attempt was being made to open
highways in Western Nebraska until
the drifting stops. Several motorists
caught in Western Kansas suffered
frozen hands and feet. Six inches Of
snow in some localities with near zero
temperatures were reported.
Fruit crops in Central Texas were
threatened and truck growers and
florists in the vicinity or Corpus
Christi were warned to prepare for
killing frosts before Sunday. Damage
to fruit from the hard freeze was
feared in Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri
and Arkansas.
The Texas Panhandle was fighting
its worst blizzard in years. Buried
under an 8-inch snow, with a raging
wind out of the north whipping it
into waist-deep drifts, traffic was
paralyzed.
