Beatrice June 7-8-9 1910
Trobably thousands of Sunday
school workers in Nebraska are now
looking forward to the state conven
tion not that thousands can be there
but because of the general interest
in what promises to be the greatest
state convention yet held The pro
gram commands the attention of ev j
ery Sunday school teacher and offi
cer both in the strength of its
speakers and the comprehensiveness
of the work taken up j
The general state secretary met
recently with the chairmen of the lo-
cal committees at Beatrice who will
have charge of the work of handling
this great meeting and they are fully
alive to the magnitude of the task
before them
The entertainment
committee purposes finding places
for 1500 delegates Three of the
largest churches centrally located
will be open to the conventions
needs for regular and overflow meet
ings The Y M C A will throw
open their building to all the men
attending the convention with priv
ilege of baths reading and writing
rooms etc The assignment com
mittee is working out plans whereby
arriving delegations however large
can be handled very quickly and
with accuracy and precision
There should not be a Sunday
school in the state which is not rep
resented at this convention which
will mark a distinct epoch in Sunday
school work in the state

A MEMO
By
Ah there is dirge in the
funeral note of this
Memorial day I
And Death oh death
is the bugles breath
as the music melts
away
But Come oh comtI
is the call of the
drum come into the
graeyard lone
And the blossomingpray
as a tribute lay on the
soldiers crumbling
stone
We are old and bent as
we marshal now in
the days of cur na
ton s peace
And we dream no more
of the cannons roar
but of strifes and
lifes surcease
GRANT AT THE FRONT 1863
HAL DAY REFLECTION

1861
LOVE
Ah ihere was thrill in
the bugle note of the
days oi sixty one
To strife to strife 1 was
the shrill of the fife
to strife of sword
and gun I
And Come oh come
was the call of the
drum com ro t
crowding rarLs
And march away to the
martial fray by the
Rappahannocks
banks
We were young and erect
as we marshaled then
for the great repub
lics cause
And we dreamed of fame
and a deathless name
and the heros high
applause

MORE Y0UMGEST VETERANS
Recent
Discussion Brings Forward
Two Under Sixty
That highly interesting hero the
youngest veteran of the civil war
continues to bob up serenely now and
then He seems to be almost if not
quite as numerous as the hist survivor
of the charge of the Light brigade
at Balaklava The surprisingly large
number of men still living who enlist
ed when mere lads helps to uphold the
statement frequently made by indi
viduals and proved by the records of
the war department that the great
conflict was fought and won by boys
young fellows who enlisted in their
teens The records show a preponder
ance of such early enlistments
Last March a New York paper print
ed a brief obituary of the youngest
veteran who had just died at the
age of sixty two The editor received
a flood of communications from claim
ants to that distinction One modest
veteran from Brooklyn signing him
self simply Cavalry wrote I served
two years and six months and am not
yet sixty two Then F Blemly liv
ing in another part of Greater New
York giving his birth date as Jan 31
1S49 came forward with this state
ment I served under Sheridan and
Custer in the Shenandoah valley until
the close of the war and I have a
year yet to hang on to the saddle be
fore I reach sixty two
Youngest Veteran Blemly was check
mated by Charles Carr of Brooklyn
formerly of Company C Fourth Ohio
cavalry who said he was born March
13 1S40 nearly six weeks later thn
Blemly and served throughout the
Atlanta campaign under General Sher
man
From Nw cae the claim of
David W Ryan nny fifty nine years
old who orved a busier hi Company
H Second New Jersey cavalry Young
est Veteran Ryan seemed to have th
pennant but Mic Inel Duiioho of Au
burn N Y assaultel If- position and
captured rlie stsrtlard leiir still uu
der fifry nine Lorn Ma 27 1S51
Donoho joined DLpppn nils zojive
and went to the front in loGl After
ward he served with the One IluudreO
and Ff y ninth New York regimen
being sustcreJ out at Syracuse Aug
19 1SG3 Youngest Veteran Donoh
according to this record was only
ten-year-old when he joined the zou
aves and began to wear the basrr
breeches and the soft sash belt of tha
branch of the service
It is highly probable that if thi
friendly controversy had extended t
the west there would have been sever
al youthful veterans somewhere arounc
the edges of sixty to lay claim to the
honor

f AST year saw Lincolns triumph Oer his tomb
The century plant of fame burst into bloom
And all the earth was filled with its perfume
T was most meet that in that selfsame year
The skies above his land should wholly clear
And the last clouds of section disappear
that was his own dream He sought to write
FOR
But one word Union On the futures height
It now is written in eternal light
W
HATEVER stress of madness or of crime
Shall rack ihe world that covenant sublime
Is now secure through ail the storms of time
AND one who sits today in Lincolns seat
Has made the bonds of union more complete
Has made the naone of union yet more sweet
THE new time over 11 the laoid is born
Over tfie cottons snow aoid silken corn
The north and south clsp hands aoid face the morn
OER blue and gray strew flowers with loves perfume
And for a wreath to strew on Lincolns tomb
Weave the Word Union out of fragrant bloom

knee
About the great big war that helped t make the

And while she dreams of future days theyll come
so soon so fasti

SAW THE BRIGHT SIDE
He Made the Most of an Unploasant
Situation
A group ot men were discussiug
human uature and the difliculty ot
looking always on the bright and gilt
tering side of things when the dingy
dark brown side is uppermost and
seems destined to remain uppermost
Its a great thing to cultivate ti
disposition to make tho most of things
in this life remarked a man who used
to drive trotting hbrses for a living
The most striking Illustration I et i
bad of that was In a big liure race al
a fair down the state about ten
year ago The man driving ulutig
side of uie let his horse swerve iu the
back stretch and my sulky was u sei
That caused a general mixup aud a
colored driver right behind me gut un
loaded aud his sulky broken to pieces
Well I lay there for a minute and
then as I didnt seem to be much hurt
I started to get up
Hey boss don yo go gittin up
yelled the colored driver at me excit
edly
Why I asked him some puzzled
Cause he answered H
right wha yo is and In a minute
theyll sen roun hyah and haul us
back pas the gran stan in a caih
hiage
Sure enough they did and when
we drove up that home stretch In the
open hack they sent for us that col
ored man was the happiest person 1
ever saw Now thats what 1 call

COURTSHIP IN
The
PORTUGAL
Way the Young People
Begin
Their Lovemaking
The most important event In the life
of a Portuguese woman is marriage
Next in importance are the early days
of courtship for a Portuguese court
ship is the essence of romance and
the ways of the Portuguese lover are
singularly picturesque Here is a lit
tle drama in which Cupid is stage di
rector If a young Portuguese sees in
the street a pretty girl with whom he
would like to become acquainted lie
follows her Chaperons are not im
possible obstructions He follows ber
right up to her very door and notes
the address Next day he comes again
and if the young lady approves of him
for she certainly saw him the day
before she is on the lookout
Sometimes hard fate in the guise of
an angry parent prevents her and
then the gallant youth is kept waiting
Sooner or later she leans over the bal
cony aud smiles at him The happy
youth ties a note to a cord which the
fair lady drops from the balcony The
next day the young man comes again
This time he rings at the door If the
inquiries which the young ladys elders
have made prove satisfactory the
swain is admitted to make the ac
quaintance of the young lady After
that courtship in Portugal Is about
the same as it is in Kankakee or Kala
mazoo Leslies Weekly
Not a Laughing Matter
Cut off from family and home by a
relentless tide fat Mr Bodger had
been forced to clamber till he gained
a pathway cut in the cliffs face It
was a uarrow path and Mr Bodser
was no uarrow man Getting more
frightened every moment he proceed
ed warily along the fast diminishing
way till at last it faded suddenly Into
what the poets would call sweet noth
ingness Already he was overlap
ping and it was impossible to turn
An excited crowd watched his pros
ress from above
What on earth am 1 to do gasped
Bodger desperately on his four inch
ledge as be gripped a tuft of seaweed
with one hand
