We need so much in the flush of youth
When the heart is pulsing with life’s
rich tide; .
We long for beauty and love and truth
With a hunger and thirst unsatisfied.
We toll for fame and we grasp at power.
Our souls are attuned to the world’s
mad strife.
All heaven and earth seem our rightful
dower—
For we need so much in the rush of
life.
We need so little when life Is done
And the spirit soars from its chrysalis;
From our careless Angers, one by one.
Drop the useless treasures we shall not
miss.
The glitter of gold, the hoarded heap
Of prizes and praises so hardly won.
We will barter them all for a dreamless
sleep—
For we need so little when life is done!

last clubs In the American League
Johnson pitched a caliber of ball that
made him stand out more prominently
and above the pitchers whc were on
winning teams. It has often been re
marked that had Johnson been with
the Cubs, Giants, Tigers or Athletics
when those teams were winning pen-
nants he would have established some
pitching records that would have stood
for all time.
And Joe Jackson has been prevented
from playing In a world's series be
cause he happened to be under con

up to last year. There is still a
chance for Jackson realizing his ambi
