And crying and signing
And sorrow undying,
Will never change seed that vol
sow.
Be careful Of your acts,
Fer words can cut and deeds bring
blood,
And wounds are stubborn facts.
Whether sleeping Or weeping,
The seed that's sown will grow.
The rose tree brings roses,
The thorn tree discloses
IT'S thorn as an index OF woe
Be. careful of your friends, boys,
Nor walk nor mix with vice,
and fly when sin entice;
The seed that that one is sowing
Through time will be growing,
And each will gather his own,
In JOY or sorrow,
To-day Or tC morrow.
You'll reap what your right hand

And when temptation will ensare
Remember mothers nightly prayer
FOR YOUR WIFE
Tell her not to hate me so;
Bet even now she does not know
I keep you two together.
Tell her how easy I can plan
To encourage you, her man,
To have-to hold-to understand.

Laugh at your pleadings
With childish banter
Turn away when all the time
Inside aches and gnaws my mind
The lies I tell when your kiss salts

Go Before Voters in
Special Ballot.

Two. directors from a field of sever
candidates will be named at the
annual election for district No. L

thorized to conduct a recreational pro-
gram jointly with the city of Ely and

the recreational proposal.
In order to carry, the proposal
must receive majority of the total

The question to be decided, as con-
tanned on the official ballot, follows:

A PROCLAMATION

Whereas Ely has established a traf-
fic safety record that dates to August
1892, and
Whereas this record leads cities
in the United States in Ely's popu-
lation class insofar as the records of
the National Safety Council show, and
Whereas Ely has been given awards
for 1910 for traffic safety and home
safety by the Minnesota Safety
Council, and
Whereas it is my earnest desire that
the citizens of Ely work increasingly
to preserve these safety records;
Now therefore I hereby proclaim
May Is to "a as Ely Safety Week to
inaugurate a campaign to keep Ely's
thoroughfares and homes free from
accidents.
JOHN KAPSCH.
Mayor, City of Ely.

Some one who evidently reads The
Miner has sent in communication in
which he says: Il have often wondered
how long it would take you people up
around Ely to wake up and protest
the running Of your resort country by
people IN other states. who have never
seen the Superior National Forest or
the Quetico Park?" We casually men
toned this IN last weeks issue and find
that some people liked the story while
others felt like cunning for the writer.
Be this as it may. We still maintain
that we up here, cannot live on
scenery and must, in order TO eat, mix
a little timber and mining with our
diet and our everyday life. Unless we
have this helpful assistance, We
(meaning all of us) might as well move.
1t is our opinion that the attacks
made on the Forest Service were in
spired by the Quetico-Superior park
bunch TO discredit the service in fur
therance of their park scheme. Tim
Der is a crop and in order to save it
should be cut when ripe, the same as
wheat. oats and other grains. The
mining industry needs timber as well
as the woodworking industry, paper
mills, etc. 1t seems kind of foolish to
go to the west coast, Canada, and the
southern states to get timber TO
supply the industries Of Minnesota.
Why not also question the attitude
of the farmer who sells a few cords
of his own puIpwood during the winter
or the mining interests who were
forced to log more timber than needed
the past year in order to save two
million feet blown down in the storm
Of two years ago.
