C., THURSDAY, JANUARY 1, 1942 Along Life’s Way By WILBORNE HARRELL - The Will Within . Our men may sleep beyond the sea, , In smoking heaps our homes may lie, . But in our souls we will be free, More fateful, chains, than just to die. . It echoes deep in wooded lane, , It clatters in the cities’ marts, - It thunders on our sea-washed main— . This will that burns within our hearts. 1 It wings its way across the skies, ‘ It crashes on high mountain’s slope, It lingers where the eagle flies, A blaze of glory, faith and hope. ’ This will within was hewed by hands Inured to blood anti sweat and toil, And with this will we hold these lands, We live and die upon this soil, i • COLERAIN > # « Mr. and Mrs. Roy Pancoast ami - children, of Percyville, Va., spent the i Christmas holidays with Mrs. Estelle ‘ White, i Mr. and Mrs. John L.
