est composure: "I rejoice my

COME TO GIT REDEMPTION.
Tor De Land's Sake;''
Them All.
Take
Some very amusing things
happen in the various ollices of
the local hoards of the country,
and while some of the clainiR
for deferred classification are
meritorious, a great many of
them are alisolutely laiighahle,
Mr. A. J. Huiming, Jr., chief
clerk of the Loral Hoard of Her
tie county, N. ('., tells about an
old negro who dropped into his
ollice a few days ago.
"Boss," said the old man,
"1'se come fur to git redemp
tion." "How's that, I'ncle !'" in
quired the clerk.
"W ell, you see, it's like dis:
You all is 'gw ine tor take niv
hoy away tin in ineaiid sen' Ii i m

to star ter death, an' 1 wants

"Why, old man," said the
clerk, "that hoy of yours can
send you fla every month out
of his pay and furthermore the
governmens will pay you an
additional $H each month, ma
king a total of $25 per month
for your support. Wouldn't
that do for your needs ?"
"What's dat you say, hoss?"
I'se to git $2.i every month fur
dat hoy in de army ?''
"That's right."
"Kur de Lawd's sake!" and
the old negro became really ex
ited. He began talking to
himself and tiguriug a littlo.
After a while he turned to the
elerk:
"Look er here Hoss," he said.
"You all gil dat hoy off to war
as soon as you all can, and Hoss
I'se got three moio hoys dat 1
wants you all to git off to de
war as quick as"
"Theduece you have!" ex
claimed the clerk. "Where are

"Why de's over in Virginy

TELL ME SO.
The people who have so much sympathy for those who have gone
beyond all earthly help, might use a little of it in every day life to a
good and excellent purpose. The idea of kicking people when alive
and then lor a person to weep over their grave w hen dead is what too
many of us do and is one reason w hy the world is no belter today.
Speak your kind words 10 the living, and when you are dead you need
not care what is said of you.
If you love me tell me so,
Wait not 'till the summer glow
Fades in autumn's changeful light,
Amber clouds and purple night;
Wait not 'till the winter hours
Heap with snow drifts all the (lowers,
Till the tide of life runs low
It you love me tell me so.
II you love me tell tne so,
While the river's dreamy How
Molds the love-enchanted hours,
Steeped in music, crowned with Mowers,
lire the summer's vibrant days
Vanish in the opal haze;
L:re is hushed the music Now
If you love me tell me so.
If you love me tell me so.
Let me hear the sweet words low;
Let me know, while life is fair
While in womanhood's first blouni,
lire shall come dark days of gloom,
In the first fresh dawning glow
If you love me tell me so.

GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY AHEAD.
Will Nations Arise To It When
War Is lindcd ?
It is assumed that when the
war ends it will be necessary
for all nations to develop as
never In-fore their natural re
sources to make good the want
age of combat and to lift the
crushing bunions of debts
which will press every people
actively or passively involved,
I'lidoubteilly this will supply
the urgent necessity of compell
ing humanity to attack the des
ert and jungle regions of the
world now left to the possession
of the jackal ami the savage.
This thought opens a pleas
ing vista of possibilities. In
South and Central America, in
Africa, in Asia, lies unused
millions of acres, untouched
billions of miii'Tal wealth. 1111
estiniateil billions' worth of
timber, which, if tamed, de
veloped exploited on soiiii- in
ternational co-operative basis
would not only sullieeto pay all
the war and rehabilitate all the
shattered regions, hut, to make
wealth, comparatively speak-I
ing, the possession of every,
I amily.
Truly, out of the wreck of
civilization, on the material
side, the world has an open
chance to rise in greater splen
dor and strength than it has
ever known, to realize the
dream of the prophets of the
golden age. Hut will men and
nations rise to the opportunity?
