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 For More Than

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 ROBERTUS 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 1910 4 Ci IJLL 6 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

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

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 making the most of things Cleve laud Plain Dealer 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
