WHAT figure inure Immovably

Than that grave strength mo
patient mid ho pure,
Calm In good fortune, whan it
wavered, aure.
That mind serene. Impenetrably just.
Modeled on claaalo linen so simple they en
dure?
That soul ?o eoftly radiant and eo white
Tbe track It left seems lean r.f Are than
MM
Cold but to euoh as lov? dlatumpeiatureT
And If pure light, oa tome deem, be th?
force
That drives reJolclnK planets on their
course.
Why for hla power benign seek an 1m
purer source?
Ilia waa the true enthusiasm that burns
long,
Domestically bright,
Fed from Itself and shy of human sight.
The hidden force that makes a lifetime
strong,
And not the short lived fuel of a song.
PuBHlonleHs, way you? What Ih passion for
Hut to Bubllrae our natures and control,
To front heroic tolls with late return,
Or none, or such as shames- the con
queror?
That fire was fed with subatunoe of the
KOUl
And not with holiday stubble, that -could
burn,
Unpralaud ot men who after bonfires run.
Through seven alow your a of unudvpneing
war,
Equal when fields were lost or fields were
won,
With breadth of popular applause or
blame.
Nor fanned nor damped, unquenchably
the same,
Too Inward to bo reached by flaws of idle
fame.
Soldier and statesman, rarest unison;
High poised cxumplo of great dutlea done
Simply as breathing, a world's hqnpr worn
As life's Indifferent gifts to all men born;
Dumb for/himself, unless It were to Cod.
Hut for his barefoot soldiers eloquent,
Tramping the snow to coral where they
trod.
Held by his a wo In hollow eyed content;
Modest, yet firm as nature's self: un
blamed
Suvo by the men his nobler temper
shamed; 1
Never seduced through allow of present
good . -
By other than unsettlng lights to steer
New trimmed In heaven, nor than hla
steadfast mood
More steadfast, far from rashness as from
fear;
Rigid, but with hlmfelf first, grasping still
In awerveless poise the wave beat helm ?f
will; r
Not honored then or now because he
wooed ,
The popular voice, but that ho still with
stood;
Broad minded, high soulcd. there is but
one
Who was all this and ours, and all tnen's,

About The Castor Bean.
Hamlet, N. C? Feb. 3. ? It Ls be
lieved that Pro-Germans are endeav
oring to interfere with the conduct
"of the war, nnd are spreading the
following rumors -with respect to the
growing of the caM^r bean. Investi
gations are being Carried on now ' to
trace these rumors Uy their source,
i These pro-Oermans are telling H that
the castor bean is a very difficult crop
to raise and that it Is impossible to
harvest and thrash them* and insin
uating that the beans are. not being
grown for the government.
To fcuch rumors no .attention should
be paid, "because this Governm eat
would' not ask the fa/mers to do some
thing that was impossible, and the
government has fixed a very liberal
price so that it will he very profitable
to grow these beans. The beans, when
gathered, if put into a barn in a
dry - place, will thrash themselves Just
as a cotton boll will open, and an
ordinary velvet bean or pea holler will
with a few minor adjustments thrash
them. The Government needs these
beans, and It is g*Hng to surmount
any difficulties met with by r the farm
ers.
- Mr. T. 8. Evans, Asst. Development
Agent of the Seaboard Air Line Rail
way, with offices at Hamlet, N. C.,
who .has undertaken the planting of
10,000 acres of these beans to this ter
ritory for the Government, says that
he believes that .when the formers
found out that these rumors were the
result of pro-German propaganda they
would come to the support of the
Government arid would take these con
tracts in a short time.
Privates Earle K. Iioird and Charles
P. McCarthy, of Damp Wadsworth,
