In that time has found to do.

First they turned their willing h ands to

Keeping lovers off the step Of the library so favored·

Here the girl s sho wed iots o! "pep.''

Then they noticed that the workm en At the dorm were far too s low· That the job would not be fini shed Till the ground was white with snow.

So a l:>unch o! sturdy m aidens, Firm, although they looked so meek

Rushed into the scene of action · ' Finished it in just a week. '

Then at 0hristm as- tid e. the g irli es, Since they loved th ei r teach ers so, Gave them each a brand-new Fordie; Now their travelin g is n't s low.

When Miss Ellis in the chapel, Ch anged her office hour s each day; Then our g irl s became excite d, Fix ed for her a nother way on a little platform

With her megaphon e she'll stand

To i"lform the ea ger stu dents

And you ou g ht to see the chapel!

Peru's Good Railroad Connections.

Who said I'eru had poor r ailroad con nection s? No one did who has given the subject car efu l and unprejudiced thought Six days in the week Peru has better railroad conn ec ti ons north. south, east and west than nin ety percent of th e towns of Ne br as ka, an d just as good as lots of the town s for the seventh day. Thin gs ar e commonl y good or bad by compa ri so n, a nd if thi s is true, Peru has fine railroad connections.

Then why a ll this talk a bout Peru an d her railroad connecti ons? There are just two cause s for the talk. Year s ago Peru had poor railroad conn ecti ons. At that time the "talk- geyse r began to spout and it bec ame a ha bit ev er s ince with a larg e numb er of peo ple. Th e other cau se is du e to th e la ck of Sunday train s whi ch would not be used by ove r one percent of our go od people if we had one, for th e s imple reason that th ere is not a more pl easa nt place on earth in whi ch to spend the Sabbat h than ri g ht here in our own commu ni ty Thi s is evid enced by the fact that thru o ut the summ er month s auto parti es by the scor e vi s it Pe ru fr om a ll o ver south -ea stern Nebraska, to spend th e Sabbath afte rno ons enj oying th e be a'\lt iful scenery and the coo l shad es of th e campu s wood s.

THE NEW PATRIOTISM

By Edgar A Gu es t.

It isn't enoug h on the Fonrth of July

To se nd up a r oc ket to br eak in th e sky;

It isn't e noug h, as we've all come to know,

To hang out Old Glory and mak e a big show

To s tand up and cheer

F or th e Fl ag once a year

Is a ll ve ry we ll in its limited way,

But what we mu st do

For thP Red, White and Bl ue

Is to love it anrl honor it day af te r rlay.

It im' t enough on the Fourth of Jul y

To t ake off you r hat as the Fl ag 's pass ing by, Or stan d wh en " Th e S tar Spangled Banner" is played And ch e er as th e sol di ers go pa st in parade

It is a ll vpry well

Your de votion to te ll

On the Fourth of Jul y by a· brillian t display,

But th e Flag that you lov e

As it ripp les abo ve

N eeds so methin g of se rvice fr ·1 m you every day. The test of you r love 's not th e Fourth of Jul y, Or the cos t of th e r oc ket s yo u send to the s ky; It isn 't the way that you act once a year , Or the flags yo u display or th e speec hes you cheer; Th o yo u may he co r rect

In th e outward respect

Which on certain occasiond you publ ic ly pay , Th e proof of yo ur lo ve

For O ld Glory above

Is th e service you give hP. r, d ay after day. Time was thatt th e Flag asked put little fr om us; Men could be sa ti sfied with th ei r holiday fu l l; But the Mo therland now nee ds ou r s tr e ngth and our prayer,

We love and protec t her and gi ve her ou r care.

For all we hold dear

Every day in the year

We must g uard a ga in st all who wou ld bring her to shame;

We mu st teach men th e worth

Of th e bes t land on earth, We must live for her glory and work for her fame. -Selec te d.
