z I Wonder when the moonlight falls —
‘ In golden glory on the sea,
And every little lisping tide
Is fraught with ocean’s mystery,
If life’s good angels come to us ___
Through the soft silence of the night,
‘Bidding us keep our priceless faith,
Our sure belief in truth and right:I think. there is nothing comparable to a moonlit
wmight by the sea; there is a magic in moonlight at all
"times, but by the sea shore, with a golden path reachamg from one’s feet, out over limitless leagues of restfless waves, and leading to some unknown region far
‘away, its effect becomes irresistible; all our olden
fancies and dreams come back again and life’s better
‘amgels whisper .of those eternal verities that nothing
«can destroy.
‘The most precious things of life are indestructible;
Wt Gs g60d ‘to realize that fact, when we are tempted to
$earthat our civilization is disintegrating and that our
dreams of better days to come may never, never
cume true. We may still keep our tryst with faith, hope
and charity and . -like to remember that of the three,
eharity is the greatest. Not faith, though upon its wings
«ourminds may soar beyond the limits of time and
oo not hope which lends us courage to go on
ing dreams and working for their fulfillment,
Amt charity, which keeps us here upon the earth, among
our fellow men.and points the way to human service,
ssympathy and understanding.
Truth, justice and right cannot but survive, even
wma world of chaos they cannot be denied. “Truth
ecrashed to earth will rise again,”’ justice though blind
‘will triumph im the end, right will eventually over«gome wrong.
Let us not forget mercy, tolerance and forgiveness,
‘these also are indestructible. Let us remember the lines
wwritten of mercy by Shakespeare many years ago:
The quality of mercy is not strained,
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath; it is twice blessed;
. It blesseth him who gives: and him that takes.”
’ Oh, yes, life’s better angels still walk the earth
“even in these days of strife and confusion they come
20 bless us yet. Let us welcome them and cultivate
aheir gracious company. Let us look from the dark
shadows of the past and of the present and envision
ahe future that is to be.
Night and shadows will flee away; there will be
ssunlight after rain and dawn succeeds the darkest
might. This strange world of ours always has been and
talways will be looking for the light, ever and always
wmoving upward and onward.
Uncle Silas says: ‘] wish I had a dollar for every
ftime the words, ‘the man who’ were spoken during
ithe late Republican convention.”’

elp Ease Steel Shortage
IRON SPRINGS, UTAH—A fleet of Fruehauf Dump Trailers
working in the huge Utah iron pits, is contributing nobly toward relie
of the steel shortage in the West. Day after day these trailers, ownet
and operated by Utah Construction Company, deliver 750 tons of or
from the mine to the crusher at the railhead. Loads average 50 ton,
and each trailer makes 15 trips daily. Ore from the Utah mine is con

were getting over 20% a year on their investment.
. “If we leaves ‘alf for boss, ’E’s doin’ well.enow.” one
old timer explained to me, but actually, the take was
f}much less than that. As the stopes where the best of
the rock was broken showed free gold in the face, it
was the duty of the “specimen boss” to make the
ounds first thing, and fill his bag with the more obvious
pieces, which he broke out with a hand pick. But he
could not prospect the muck piles, and muckers and
machine men alike had small tobacco sacks hidden in
under turn sheets and other places, which they filled
with their ‘‘take’’ about once in two weeks and carried
to the surface on a string tied round their waists. In the
change room, this was easily concealed fom the not
very strict watchman by changing your shirt first and
letting the tail drop down. :

planned to give his living room
that “new look”—planned to carefully refinish the woodwork and
replaster the walls.
Every time Will got out the
putty to start filling in the cracks,
a neighbor’ stopped by to-pass the
time of day — and first thing you
knew, there was a group of us helping Will do the job up right. After
Will called a halt to the evening’s

From where I sit, so long as Will

everything else, we’ll all be happy
to help Will change the looks of his
living room any time he wants.
