The Changing Sky
One of the most surprising results
of the cross motion of the fixed stars,
as projected on the background of the
sky, is the gradual falling to pieces of
t'he familiar constellations. The staAi
arc moving in all sorts of directions,
some faster and sonne slower, and the
inevitable consequence must toe that in
a few centures the whole face of the
heavens will be so changed that if wo
could come back again to our earthly
life we should not recognize them. Of
course a very long period of time will
be required to produce a very great
transformation.
The Knd of the War
The war will end, they blithely singr,
Next fall, next winter or next spring.
As though the forces thus unpent
Coulfl In so 'brief a time be spent;
As though they marked not all who
strive
And all who witness, all alive,
And set a seal upon the morn
Of generations yet unborn.
Nay, when a thousand years have fled
And all forgotten are the dead,
If one who passed In battle hate
Still holds that thought beyond the
gate, ,
Still holds that lust, beyond the dawn
The war will still he raging on.
The war will end. they blithely sing.
Next fall, next winter or next spring.
