Ona time In my boyhood
I cared not to play.
But came an Old Timer,
Delightful and gay,
Who said to me kindly,
O play whlie you may,
Enjoy all seasons.
Or blooming or gray.
I told the Old Timer,
Endearing my day,
Like him I'd be cheery,
As he told the way,
Said he, eyes a-tw!nkle,
I toll all I can.
Contriving and trying
To build a full man,
Immuring tho gloomy,
The moody, the sad,
In dear, happy sunlight
Of dreams that are glad.
He smiled with love's largess.
Though wrinkled and old,
And still I am warmer
Through tale that he told,
Yet learning how loving
Enlivened his heart,
Transfigured his features
As Jove played a part;
While now as I follow
Where Old Timer led,
I smile at the shadows
That fall on my head.
I f'ee from depression,
Filled up by despair.
To roam where the v!s'as
Are pleasing and fair.
Again in the purple
Of life's mental power,
Again in the glory
Of love's healing hour,
Again in a region
Where giving is' gain,
In light of the valley, ' x
The peak and the plain.
o when you have trouble,
Forget It awhile:
In flight of your fancy.
Forget It ani smile.

The fate ne had fled since birth
and once escaped last night stopped
the heart that kept his malformed
body alive for six days of harried ex
istence. It was a painless end, the kind of
"mercy death" his father had hoped
for, against his mother's wishes.
Starvation had been decreed by a
"bottomless', colon, and from the start
the father favored letting "nature
take its course."
The mother's pleas won out, and an
operation on Tuesday stayed off
death. But the child was doomed.
He had no chance from the begin
ning, it was disclosed by an autopsy

physicians gave up the battle at the

"He's officially alive," Dr. M. L.

going to die. And his death may oc

"I hope so,'' Tafel answered. That's
what I've been praying for all day."
