"IIan wants but little here below, nor wants that little long," the poet wrote, long years ago, and he was headed wrong. Men think that creed has little wort'li, and view it with a grin, for they not only want the earth, but want the fence thrown in. The more a humble mortal gets, the more he wants to own, and even when he's rich he sweats to add an- other bone. This world, would be a sad old vale, and life would be a fright, if people didn't want to nail 'most everything in sight. Invention would be lying dead, it's triumph all unknown; man wouldn't have his folding bed, his clock or tele- phone. Pale Science wouldn't scale the heights where now we see her trot, and we would miss the useful lights that cost so much a watt. All joy would see its epitaph, and noth- ing would amuse, and I would have no phonograph to play "The Fox- trot Blues." Man wants the earth, and it is well that he should for it yearn; that he may see his bundle swell, he makes the pulleys turn; he hooks his wagon to a star, from sloth be turns away, invents a gun or motor car, or paints a "Stag at Bay." When man quits wanting fame and gold, and everything in sight, this planet will be dead and cold, as Luna looks tonight. -By Walt Mason, ORGAN RECITAL. An organ recital was given in the Coven Presbyterian Church on last Tuesday night. Prof. Anderton, or- ganist and choir master of James St. Methodist Church, presided at the organ. There was a large crowd and everybody enjoyed the music.
