ST. PETER AT THE OATH.
Flt. Peter stood guard at the golds n
gate. • .
With solemn mein kind an air sedate,
When up • to the top of the golden
stair
A Haan and a cabman ascending there,
Applied tor admission. They came
and steed
Before tit. Peter, so great mad good,

And *liked St. Peter to let them in,

iWith ;a scraggy beardtetr upon her
chin.
Th. initis was *heed and thick, and
Hie stot:dealt was built eo it rounded

leis face was pleagpnt and all the
while
He wore a kindly and genial snipe.
The choirs' in the distance the echoes
woke,
And the man kept still while the wo
titian spoke.
"Ob, thou, who
said she'
"We two come hither beseeching
thee
To let us enter the heavenly land,
And play our harp/ with the angel
band.
Of me, St. Peter, there is no doubt,
There's nothing from heaven to bar
me out.
I've been to meetings' three times a
week,
And almost always Fd rise to speak.
"I've told the einnere about the day,
When they'd repent of their evil way;
I've told sway neighbors --I've told 'eni
all

I've showed them what they'd have to.

If they'd pass in with the chosen few;
I've marked their path of duty clear--
Laid out the plan for their whole
career,
"I've talked and talked to 'em loud
and long,:
For my lung ar;6''good,•and my voice
ie strong,
So, good St. Peter, yotu'll clearly see
The gate of heaven is open for me ;
But my old man, I regret to say,
Hasn't walked in exactly the narrow
way.
He smokes, and he swears, and grave
faults he's got,
And I don't know whether he'll pass
or not,
guardat the gate,"
"He never would pray with an earn-
est vim,
Or go to revival, or join in a hymn,
So I had to leave hitn in sorrow there
While I, with the chosen, united ,in
prayer:
He ate what the pantry chanced to
afford,
While I, in my purity, sang to the
Lord ;
.and if cucumbers were all he got,
It's a chance if he merited them or
not.
"Buc 0, St. Peter I love him so,
To the pleasures' of heaven let him go.
I've done enough, a saint I've been,
SVoa't that atone ? Can't you let him
in ?
By my grim gospel I know 'Lie so
That the unrepentant moat fry below,
But isn't there some n'ay you can see
That he may enter, who's dear to me?
"It's a narrow gospel by which I
pray'
But the Chosen expect to find some
way
Of coaxing, of fooling, or bribing you,
So their rela ions can amble thtough ;
And say, St, Peter, it seems to me
This gate isn't kept as it ought to be,
You ought to stand by the opening
there
And never sit down in that easy chair.
"And say, St. Peter my fright is dim-
med
But I don't like the way your whisk-
ers are trimmed,
They're out too wide, and outward

They'd look better, narrow cut
straight across.
Well, we must be going our crowns to

Tne man stood as a piece of stone -

A life-long, settled idea he had

That he would certainly have to go ;
Tnat if ebe went to the region dim,
There wasn't a ghost of a show for

Slowly he turned. by habit bent,
To follow wherever the woman went,

tawa to Toronto and front Toronto to
WVindsor that there may be an inlet and
an outlet for the pleasure of the American
tourist. The motorist is selfish and he
moat take a larger view of the question of
the improvement of our highway, and I
think his selfishness should be sacrificed
on the altar of the common good
Then we have the politician who con-
siders the party advantage before the
public good. Both parties ere reasoning
on the opportunities and bonefite it will
give them, more than they are the pub-
lic benefit that will be derived. If they
can snake it appear that they are working
for us, and if they can pull the wool over
our oyes and retain our allegiance- and
get the Advantage for their party, they
are satisfied. Party advantage and party
expediency trust be sacrificed upon the
altar of the common good, and until that
is done we cannot expect to accomplish
all we are hoping for in connection with
good roads.
What can we, as an Association, hope
for in connection with this natter? I be-
lievewe can hope that the flame which
is kindled here will create such aconsuming
fire that this selfi,hness, no matter where
it comes from, will be placed upon the
altar and will be consumed by the fire un•
til the gold only is left, and then the
roads will be -built.
In conclusion I aaish to‘say, that I be -
['eve these things are possible if we will
only sacrifice our selfishness. Good
roads are absolutely necessary if we are
going to maintain the present position of
Ontario. The greatest asset of our
country•to-day is not its timber or its
mines but it is the agriculture resources,
and we as an Association should do every-
thing we possibly can to encourage the
agriculturist and make it easier for him
to reach -his natural market. We must
make farming more attractive, and if we
do that we will build for ourselves a mon-
ument which will be left by us as a herit-
age for those who will follow. I thank
you. (Applause )

An exchange gives the following
account of what happened to a family
too stingy to take their home paper.
He says :
"We once knew a man who was too
stingy to take the newspaper in hie
home town and always. went over to
borrow his neighbor's paper. •
"One evening he sent his son over
to borrow the paper, and while the
son was on the way be ran into a large
stand of bees, and in a few minutes
hie face looked like a summer squash,
"Hearing the agonized cries of the
son, the father ran to his assistance
and in doing so ran into a barbed wire
fence, cutting a handful of flesh from
his anatomy and ruining a $4 pair of
trousers.
"The old cow took advantage of the
hole in the fence, got into the corn.
field and killed herself eating green
corn. Hearing the racket, the stingy
man's wife ran out of the house, up-
setting a four gallon churn full a f
cream into a basket of kittens, drown-
ing the whole flock. She slipped an
the crearn and fell downstairs, break.
ing her leg and a $19 set of false teeth..
The baby, left alone, crawled through
the Spilled cream into the parlor and
ruined a $40 carpet. During the ex-
citement the daughter eloped with the
hired man, taking the family savings
bank with them."
Down in South Carolina they caught
an old negro roost•robher "wino the
goods on him," and the sayiog goes,
and forthwith haled hien into court to
stand trial for chicken•etealing. When
old Rastas was placed in the dock the
(judge said: "Now, Uncle Ras, 1 sup-
' pose you realize. .that you're in a court
of law, and you clnite realize valet •a

The prospects for 1014 are ranch brighter now than they
were at this time last year. Winnipeg is bound to grow, hard
