There are graves in southern valleys
where the sweet magnolia blooms
Where the birds sing in the morning
o’er the soldier’s lonely tombs
There are graves on northern hillsides
lapped in the winter’s snow
Who are the lonely sleeps but God
alone may know
It may be your blue-eyed darling oh
mother with snowy hair
Who marched at his country’s calling
so young so brave so fair
In the flush of his glad young man-
hood he left you long ago
If he be the lonely sleeper there is
none but God may know
Oh wife that mourndthe lost one
through all those lonely years
Whose heart is weary waiting whose
eyes are dimmed with tears
It may be the one that left you to
bravely meet the foe
In the valley or on the hillside there
is none but God may know
We only know that they are sleeping
our brave and gallant dead
Unnamed their place of slumber no
stone at foot or head
To tell the weary watcher whether this
be friend or foe
Who sleeps the sleep that knows no
waking but God alone may know
Then bring the fresh sweet blossoms
oh mothers with hearts still sore
O’er the loss of the blue-eyed darling
whose footfall is heard no more
Though thy hands may scatter the
blossoms upon a stranger's breast
Some hand and some heart as tender
may deck thy darling’s place of rest
Yea scatter the fresh spring flowers
alike o’er each lowly head
Little indeed to us it recketh who
are the silent dead
Asleep ’neath magnolia blossoms or
lapped neath northern snows
Let our hearts breathe the glad thanks-
giving thank God our F&Vner knows

EBERT & HENRY CARMEN
SWINDLERS OLD TRICK GETS
BANKERS IN BUSY OKY CY
I — 1 '
Police and private detectives are on
the lookout for a young man about 28
years old light hair and blue eyes
' height 5 feet 8 inches and weighing
about 140 pounds who fleeced Okla-
homa City banks out of sums varying
from $10 to $50 by a short change
swindle
Rushing into the banking houses at
the busiest hours of the day the bun-
co artist i nhis shirt sleeves bare-
headed and with a pen behind each ear
had the appearance of an active young
business man his stall being so per-
fect that paying1 tellers) in several
banks were easy prey
Going to the teller’s window at an
uptown bank the young man asked
for change for a $100 bill Obliging-
ly the banker peeled og a $50 bil land
five $10 bills Incidentally he inquired
where the stranger worked He was
told at the store next door The trick
is an old one
Then it occurred to the stranger
that he didn’t want the $10 bills and
he asked for another $50 instead the
banker laid it on the counter Fumb-
ling with the $10 bills the stranger
picked up the extra $50
“Give me back that $100 and vjp will
get this correct” he told the banker
who handed over the hundred and was
given back the change except $50
Several customers were waiting at
the window and the stranger stepped
asidS for a moment to allow the teller
to serve them
When the banker looked for him he
was gone and also the $50 Realizing
that he had been stung the banker
went to the place where the young
man had said he worked No such
person was known there
By the same system the swindler
got $10 each from at least four other
banks
The people who do the most borrow-
ing never invite you to dinner
A soft answer may turn away
wrath but sometimes it comes hard
“I imagine I am in his office talkirig
to him” ' '

THAT’S THE SECRET of one business man’s suc-
cess in talking over the telephone £
He pictures himself face to face with the man with
whom he is talking U
He “sees” his man over the telephone
And he talks to him with added carefulness and con-
sideration and courtesy because he knows that all
depends on his voice and manner of talking
The practice of trying to “see” the man you are talk-
ing with goes a long way toward making all your
telephone conversations pleasant and more of them
