Dear Birr It takes ftjOn gallons of
paint for the two big hotels at Coney
Island-Manhattan and Oriental. They
are painted once in three years with
Devoe lead and zinc.
Why so often? Three reasons : (1)
sea air euU paint j (2) sand in the wind
cut? ; (5) hotels, especially pleas
ure hotels, want freshness and color as
much as protection. Once in three
years is often enough and not too olten
to paint a hotel on a windy sand U-arh
How long do you think lead ami oil
would last there'.' One year. Is there
anything for you in this'.'

DECORATION DAY POEM.
An Ode l lltroura.
O, soldiers ! ye who sweetly sleep
From labor ami from toil ;
The sjHit are sacied where you rest.
Your blood has drenched the soil.
You sleep, the sleep, to awake no more.
Your souls now rest at ease ;
Could you return and see once more
Our nation, now at peace.
You fae'd the foe that we might live,
In freedom, not In strife.
With hearts as brave, as brave could le,
You saved our nation's life.
You left your homes, you left your
friends,
You heard the cannons roar,
And now the places w hich you left
l ou'll never see once more.
Hut grateful people ne'er forget
The work which you have wrought,
It settled fears, it settled strife.
Hut blood the prize lias Isuight.
The fields, on which vou hrtvelv
fought,
Our country to sustain,
Are land-marks of your noble deeds
Your glory and your fame.
No more the cannon lielehes forth,
Instruction, death and woe :
Hut all Is rs-aceand (juiet now,
And tears haveceas'd to How.
We boie the day w ill never come
Of misery, war and shame ;
To stun our nation of its grow th,
And rob us of our name.
And now, all you, who yet survive
Your days are rolling pant
And ere so many, many years
...Ml I . .1 I.

When all have joined that holy throng
V here Christ the Captain leails
Posterity will ne'er forgft
.jj'ourrand and noble deeds.
All hWL to tin se who mustered then.
Our rratftm for to save ;
With noble hearts you facen the foe,
And now we call you brave.
It(t then, all who sleep in peaie
our earthly toil is o'er
We hope th few that still remain, .
May meet you on your shore.
