BIG BUSINESS9-DESPOT? fContinued from page 922 ly be regarded as feeblefminded lunatics to be treated with tender care so that our last days might be passed in peace and quietness. Such being the case, we who wonder if all the noise and turmoil of Big Business is worth while, probably 'belong to that unfortunate class of people, always mourning for the good old days-who were born a hundred years too late. TO THE TREE ON OUR FRONT LAWN f'Cont'd from page 36,2 I was happy-happy in knowing that within me there was that throbbing, pulsf ing quality of life, which would soon manifest itself in new limbs and tender leaves. This happiness gave way to fear, for one day I felt the cold inhuman touch of a trowel around my roots, and I was lifted from the mothering sod into a truck. It was at this point that I entered your life, for I was planted on the front lawn of your home. I was frightened, my roots could not seem to accustom themselves to their new dwell' ing place, the telephone wires interfered with my branches, and 'how I longed to be in the country, to sway with the summer breezes and bend with the winter storms, to have the little violets raise their heads to me and say good' morning, to have the cattle sleep away the peaceful hours beneath my swinging boughs. That was my dream, but I was destined to grace a city street and so I have to love the people who pass by-the weary, the sad, the lightfhearted and the gladebut best of all I love the little ones whose childish laughter floats up to ine, sweet as any June love song. What was once my dream is so no longer, for God is my Creator. He made me beautiful. I-Ie made mt' Elo give shelter to His people. I have found my talent and so happiness is mine. Thank you, Oh Maple Tree. Often I have wondered how much like me you were. Now I know that love, friendf Ninety-four ship and an understanding of God and all persons, are what you and I need to make our lives beautiful. THE MAN FROM THE CITY fl'CON't,d from page 38j The next afternoon Zep Hilton burst into the barber shop waving a newspaper in his hand. Across the top of the paper was the screaming headline, Jeffrey Smithson and Nancy Packett Return. From the story under this caption, I have taken the follow excerpt: jeffrey Smithson, the famous actor of two generations ago, has returned from retirement. He retired about twenty years ago, while at the height of his pop' ularity. Mr. Smithson's retirement followed a report that his fiancee, Miss Nancy Pack' ett, also a stage star, was lost, when the vessel, in which she was returning from an Australian tour, was sunk in the Southern Pacific. Contrary to reports, however, Miss Packett succeeded in reaching an island out of the path of steamers. Fortunately, the island was inhabited by friendly na' tives, and although she has been maroon' ed for the past twenty years, Miss Pack' ett suffered no ill effects. The lovers, who are overjoyed at their reuniting, are planning to be married at once. It is rumored that the couple are to be starred in a new play, produced by their friend, Mr. Henry Mortimer. During the last twenty years, Mr. Smithson has been operating a tobacco shop in Pineville, north of here, under the pseudonym of jefferson Smith. In case you would like to find out more about Jeff, drop in at Bill Clipper's barber shop. Bill will tell you the more intimate details of Jeff's life there, and invariably wind up his yarn with, Dogf gone it, I always knew that fellow was somebody from somewhere. ' Fl! Ulf lk 'lf He: fwaiting outside a grocery storej I thought I'd get tired waiting for you. She: I thought you would too. EASTERN ECHO
