denly upon it from around a corner. He crashed into it and was

for that indifference with his life.
Young Mothers
Here's a hand to the young mother,
who has
Courage to do what she knows to
be'right,
When she falls in the way of temp
tation?
She has a hard battle to fight;
She, who strives against self and
her comrades,
Will find a most powerful foe;
All honor to her if she conquers,
A cheer to that mother who says,
"no"!
There's many a battle fought daily
The world knows nothing about;
There's many a brave little mother
Whose strength puts a legion to
rout.
And she who lights sin single
handed
Is more a hero, I say,
Than he who leads armies to battle
And conquers them on their way.
When you are tempted, young
mother, be steadfast
To do what you know is right.
Stand firm in the honor of mother
hood,
And you will o'ercome in the fight.
May the right be your cry ever,
In traveling the rough road of
j life,,
j And dear God, who knows who
are the heroes,
"Will give you strength for the
strife. '
