THE GRADUATE GIRL.
Girl of my dreams, with the flower-sweet face.
Girl of my heart, with the gold brown hair.
Gowned in the flimsiest fabric and lace,
Laden with blossoms, she’s waiting there
Merry and eager to enter life’s race,
Surely to-day there is none so fair.
Radiant and lovely, all willowy grace;
And watching, I breathe a prayer—
God give her courage to dare and do;
God keep my little girl strong and true.
Winged the years since that yesterday
Rose-leafy, helpless, she clung to my hand;
Fairies bestowed her—and flitted away—
A wonderful gift from a wonderful land,
A thread of gold through a life al. gray.
A jewel set in a gemless band;—
Light of my life, little comrade gay.
Some day you will understand.
Land of Memories.
Mattie Dodson in Buchanan Tribune.
As I sit. in the quietude of my room,
where the fire burns low, my thoughts
go back to the Land of Blessed Memo
ries. It is there that I see in the flick
ering firelight, or in shadowy corner of
the room, your face. Passing years do
not dim my vision of it. It is the same
yesterday, to-day and always. When
the shadow of adversity is round about
me this face, with eyes once lit with a
gre t love for me, lures me back into
the pathway of light, and brings heav
en’s sunshine into the soul’s darkest
night. Sometimes when I gaze into
this dream face there comes to my en

The Greatest of These is Charity
Mansfield Shield.
It has been said that faith may be
lost in sight, hope end in fruition, but
charity extends beyond the grave to the
boundless realms of eternity. In nu
merous ways and methods can charity
be exemplified. It may consist of the
giving of alms and the extending of the
hospitality of our homes to the stranger
who applies for food and shelter. Once
upon a time three strangers applied at
the door of a tent for food and shelter.
They were tired, travel-stained and
footsore. There was nothing about
their personalities to distinguish them
from the ot dinary travefers of those
early and oriental days. This mattered
not, however, to the patriarch who
occupied the tent. He gave them water
to drink, He washed their feet. He
prepared his festal board with a
sumptuous repast, and before the feast
was half ended he discovered that he
had entertained three angels in dis
guise. So should we be careful whom
we turn away. The stranger who ap
plies at our doors for food or shelter
may not be an angel in disguise, but
the tattered garments which only
partially cover his person, the dust and
grime of travel which conceal his iden
tity, may prove to be the livery of a
good man and a worthy subject of char
ity.
But charity does not consist entirely
in the giving of alms; it also consists in
the extending of the hand of love and
sympathy to the man or woman who
may have wandered from the beaten
path of rectitude. It is all right to feed
the hungry and clothe the naked. It is
all right to visit the homes of the sick
and vouchsafe relief to the habitations
of the distressed. These are human
benefactions and constitute a part of
our duty to our fellow-man, hut the hand
that is outstretched to the poor fellow
that is down and offers to lead him
back into the better way, is the hand
that dispenses true charity. Food,
drink and raiment will satisfy the phys
ical needs, but the aching heart needs
sympathy. Whenever a man or woman
falls from those standards of morals
which have been erected by the cus
toms and usages of society, it is the
tendency of the world to shove the
erring ones down the hillside and make
it almost impossible for them, through
their own resources and initiative, to
retrieve themselves. The spirit of
true charity is to restore the fallen
ones to their feet again and lead them
back to the top of the hill, where the
light shines and the way is clear.
And thus we have dealt with two of
the human virtues, friendship and
brotherly love, and the three graces,
faith, hope and charity. These graces
and virtues are the essential attributes
which men and women must possess if
they would fulfill the ideals which have
been established since the creation of
the race. They are the leaven that
leaveneth the whole loaf of human
happiness, and the man or woman who
is blessed with all of them is bound to
scatter a whole lot of sunbeams in the
world, and his or her good deeds will
endure as preciouH, hallowed memories
long after the possessors of virtues and
graces shall have crossed the “silent
river. ”
Old Dr. Knapp used to say that “the
people of the South seem to have a vir
tual mama for letting money slip through
their fingers, without letting any of it
stick.” And he was right. It makes
one almost heartsick to ride through
the South and see how much unpicked
cotton is being plowed into the very
ground that farmers are preparing to
put into cotton again. Another Baying
of Dr. Knapp’s is also brought forcibly
to mind: “We ought to use less fire and
more sense in dealing with our old
fields.” When will our formers learn
that “burning off” the fields does ten
dollars’ worth of harm through the de
struction of humus and fertility for
every dollar’s worth of good it can
possibly do in making grass more easily

A Boy Wanted.
Wanted—A boy who stands straight,
sits straight, acts straight, and talks
straight.
A boy who listens carefully when
spoken to, who asks questions when he
does not understand, and does not ask

his business.

A boy who looks you in the eye and
tells you the truth every time.
A boy who would rather loBe his job

the office wants him, the boys and girls
want him.

A Beautiful Thought.
Robert ./. Burdette, (who rcfcently died in Cal
ifornia.)
I watch the sunset as I look out over
the rim of the blue Pacific, and there
is no mystery beyond the horizon, be
cause I know what is over there. I
have journeyed in those lands. Over
there where the sun is just sinking is
Japan. That star is rising over China.
In that direction lie the Phillipines. I
know all that. Well, there is another
land I look toward as I watch the sun
set. I have never seen it. I have never
seen anyone who has been there,
but it has a more abiding reality than
any of these lands which I do know.
This land beyond the sunset—this land
of immortality, this fair and blessed
country of the s’uT—why, this heaven
of ours is the one thing in the world
which I know with absolute, unshaken,
unchangeable certainty. This I know
with a knowledge th»t is never shadow
ed by a passing cloud of doubt. I may
not always be certain about this world;
my geographical locations may some
times become confused, but the other
‘world—that I know. And as the after
noon sun sinks lower Faith shines more
clearly, and Hope, lifting her voice in a
higher key, sings the voice of fruition.
My work is about ended, I think. The
best of it I have done poorly; and any
of it I might have done better, but I
have done it. And in a fairer land,
with finer material and a better work
ing light, I will do better work.
