iiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiHiiiii,
"IF"
By "Uncle William."
While pondering one evening In a retrospective vein,
As to why the world was always In a tiff ;
We figured out conclusively that most of trouble came
From disregard of the subjunctive "If."
If wily politicians wouldn't tamper with the vote, .
If men would always vote as they saw fit, 1
If railroad corporations hadn't congress by the throat,
Reform would make a most decided " hit."
If soulless corporations weren't scattered through our land,
If capital bad with labor no dislikes,
If employer's didn't crush mankind beneath an iron hand,
There ne'or would be necessity for strikes.
If wives would stop ''henpecking" and husbands stay at home,
If children would stay off the streets at nights,
If real good-hearted follows wouldn't fill their skins with rum,
There would be no dispraceful family fights.
If gossips wouldn't congregate to air their neighbor's faults,
If everybody stopped the use of slang,
If on foreign emigration our laws would call a halt,
There might be fewer criminals to bang.
If ladies, whon they go to church would doff their monster hats,
If children wouldn't fidget on the seat,
If everybody listened to the truths the pastor spake,
Then church would be a goodly place to meet.
If bad men didn't gamble and horses weren't raced,
If youth would shun the gilded dens of vice,
If every evil, wicked thought from mind could be effaced,
This world would be an Eden in a trice.
If every one who went to church bad heavenly thoughts in mind,
If churches aimed to keep religion pure,
If conscience weren't smothered and blind didn't lead the blind,
The millonium wouldn't long be coming, sure.
If we only weren't joalous when our neighbor has success,
If we only wouldn't covet what he owns,
If we wouldn't take advantage of a comrade in distress,
There wouldn't be so many sighs and groans.
If people would but follow up the matchless "Golden Rule,"
If backbiters would but sheathe their fangs of spite,
If rumsellurs didn't handle stuff that makes a man a fool,
This world and all that's in it would be bright.
If everyone attended strictly to their own affairs,
If each one loved his t.eigb.1 or as himself,
If half grown lads and lassies lidn't aim to put on airs,
All bickerings would be laii upon the shelf.
If each one tried to koep his si ul clean, spotless pure and white,
If hypocrite's would doff rol.glous robe,
If all mankind wore honest anl would try to do what's right,
God's recording angel would be sans a job.
If, in short, we each one tried to live the very best we knew,
If we kept the ten commandments pure and free,
If to God, our country ind to self we ever would be true,
"What a gathering of the faithful there would be."
GOOD COUNTRY HOME.
Paper Read by Mrs. A. J. Sprague at
Farmers' Institute in Paradise.
If I were as wealthy as the Goulds or
Vandorbilts I would never be contented
anywhere but in the country. When
people, who have lived in the country
all their lives, talk about retiring and
move into town so they will not have
so much work to do, they make a great
mistake. While it may bo a change
from one kind of work to another, give
me the work in the . country home.
With the present system of rural free
delivery of mail, the farmers' telephone
and later parcel post, who would ex
change the quiet and seclusion of a
good country borne for the most palatial
mansion in the biggest city in the
world ? I am sure I would not, and if
each one here lived up to thoir honest
convictions they would agree with me.
My idea of a good country homo is to
have the buildings judt as comfortable
and convenient as the means will per
mit. There are but very few farms
where the water could not be brought
into the house and also into or near to
the barn with trifling expense. There
are many conveniences that are possible
in the country home equal, or better,
than those in the city home, while they
cost much less. As to the furnishings
they may be just as elaborate as we can
afford, while the out side surroundings
should be mods as attractive as possible,
and in this we have the advantage of
thofe who havettheir homes in a city or
large town, as there is more room for a
nice yard or lawn, which adds so much
to the appearance of the home.
And to enjoy a good country home I
think the first essential would be to be
the owner of it. The most common
place objects became interesting as soon
as we possess them, and in no other
thing is this more true than in the
enjoyment of the borne, for that is
where ill of our Interests center. Men
will fight longer and harder for their
homes than for anything else in the
world.
Next we should look to the state of
our conscience and health. If we have
a guilty oonscieuca we could not enjoy
our surroundings, be tbey ever so
magnificent, while if our conscience is
clear we could enjoy, the humblest home
if it was the best we hud. Almost the
same might be said about health. We
might have the best of health with. a
guilty conscience, or a clear conscience
and poor health. But given good
health, a clear conscience and a good
country home and anybody who could
not enjoy them would hardly enjoy
heaven itself.

The girls basket ball team of the
Reynoldsville High School played a
match game with the Beechwoods girls
last Friday evening. There seemed to
be a close competition among the mem
bers of our team to see who could move
the slowest. No prize could be awarded
because five girls tied for first place and
the judges were in despair. After the
spectators had waited about thirty
minutes for the game to begin the score
was announced to be 38 to 2 in favor of
the Beechwoods girls. But as the
captain said, "we held them down to 38
anyhow." The next game will be play
ed with a slightly heavier team from
Kline's school house.
