Rulers When we build, let us think that we build forever. Let it not be for the present delight, nor for present use alone, let it be for such work as our descendants' will thank us for, and let us think, as'we lay stone on stone, :hat a time is to come when those stoneswill be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say as they look upon 'the labor and wrought substances of them, 'Sce! this our fathers did for usf

It happened, so A D he said, that one night as he was sailing leisurely through the blue 8 7 heavens, he chanced to look into The Work Shop. There stood the Ham- 5 mers in a row before a long table, and one by one the Rulers passed before C9 them. As each passed, he was given a Grinder,-a big, noisy, unwieldy Grinder. Then, so the Moon said, the Rulers sat down-some here, some there, and began to turn the Grinders. Now what do you think- out came Chisels fsome carried rolls of paper tied with red and green ' ribbonj and Rasps, who tripped gaily along, and Pliers who marched seriously with books and pencils. 3 - All passed quickly to their tasks, and so the Moon said-st died i diligently until the Wrenches declared in loud voices, What slaves we 0 are! How low has fallen our race! Because our fathers lived by the on sweat of the brow, must we too toil? 62 The Clamps added dramatically- Agreed Shall we submit our' p selves to be the slaves of sewile tasks, shall we with straning sinews carry heavy loads? The Burnish-ers drew forth long sheets of paper and read- Yes, we ask you, fellow sufferers, shall we carry these heavy burdens through 9 the winter cold and beneath the sun of summer? See how strong we are! Shall we subdue our strength and serve Public Opinion? No. We shall 9 be free as air! ' k- just then the Keys came in and commanded Follow us. 9 G All the tools rose in wild confus'on and followed the Keys, who 3 led them into the Field of Promise. Here they joined the Drills, Brushes, A 1 Mallets, and Saws-but there were so many that by and by,-so the Moon declared, that when he looked again there were no tools, only a great . h heap of yellow shavings.
