The Little Things.
Whenyou go not in the morning,
To begin the work of the (lay,
Don't neglect the little chances
you will find along the way;
For in lifting another's burden,
And speaking a word of eheer,
You will find your own elms lighter,
And easier far to bear.
What if you are in a hurrY,
And your business a pressing load,
Would yon pass by a suffering brother
Fainting beside the road,
For the help that. you might give him,
By only crossing the way,
To carry a bit of sunshine
To brighten his cloudy day?
NYC find 'tis the little things,
The little crosses and eares,
The little golden chances
Which make up the sum of the years.
If we take them with heart of courage,
And do the best we may,
They will be like a host of angels,
Flitting about our way.
And our lives will be the richer
And sweeter and better, dear,
For the helping one another,
And speaking the words of cheer.
Then let us be true to duty,
Though sometimes hard the way, •
For wefind that the crown of life conies
Through serving every day.

jured limb must have complete rest for

SCHOOL BOARD MEETING.
Organizer Arrested. •
General regret is expressed regard-
ing the case of Ernest Gartung, for
many years Superintendent of Or-
ganization for the Canadian Order of
Foresters. The Executive had enter-
tained suspicions for some time that
there was something wrong and it was
ascertained that there was a, shortage
in his accounts, and that cheques had
been drawn for a mythical organizer;
these cheques Gartung had got cashed
himself. On Thursday evening, Chief
Slemin of Brantford and a constable
searched the house of Mrs. Brazier,
where Gartung boarded. Just as they
were preparing to leave the premises,
after finding nothing, there came
three gentle taps on the rear door.
In an instant the door was thrown
open and the police, seizing the
stranger and bringing him under the
light, found that they had captured
their prisoner. He was a pitiful -look-
ing object, attired in tramp's clothes,
covered with mud and soaked with
water. He said he had been wander-
ing around the suburbs and had fallen
into the water. A loaded revolver
was taken from his pocket. On being
arraigned, Mr. Gartung pleaded, "not
guilty" to the charge of embezzle-
ment, and claims that others are
implicated., The shortage is said to
reach $5,000 or perhaps more. The
officers of the C. 0. V. express great
regret at the occurrence and general
sympathy is felt for Gartung. They
say the financial interests of the Order
are not affected, as trust companies
are behind them.
