J JFightiig tiieir way through smoko and fire And savage beasts and' sava^ ire, Acrbsf this continent entire Cjhanging the savage wilderness To the fair homes we now possess. We nave assembled here to-day A tribute of respect to- pay To those whom we msy well address As veterans of the wUdemesa. To these our local pioneers Whose patient toil in by-gone years Wroaght oat from nature's stern array These well tilled farms we see to-day And that we may appreciate The blessings of onr present state. Compare om present situation With theirs in pioneer relation. Compare the fields you're tilling now With those your fathers' had to plow Your farming implements compare With their old stile of farming ware. Your roads o'er which you ghde with ease With theirs amongst the stumps and trees. Compare your dwellings large and fine With their rude cabins seven by nine, Sometimes so small as to lequire To cook before an out door fire Compare your tables now supplied With luxuries from land and tide. With theirs, in pioseenng days When the best meal that^they could raise At sundry times was Johnny cake Mixed with cold water from the lake. Think of men selling first grade wheat Fitted for market all complete Two weary days unon the road For marketing a single load. For forty cents per bushel paid. And even that in store pay trade. Think of men working h?)lf a day To «et ten cents with which to pay The postage on a single letter, Becouse they couldh'c do any better. What would you think to pay a teuv And walk ei^t miles to get it then. Now you have markets, shops and stores And mail brought even to your doors These things we name in part to show The obligations that we owe To those who pioneered the way For these advantages to-day,' And may their children ne're forget Their obligations, or the debt For where we owe a sacred claim; ' And have not means to meet the same. It helps somewhat to bring content • To make a fair acknowledgment But this you can in part repay By filial, kindness evBiy day And by preserving in your turn What they there worked so hard to earn These noble farms the homesteads dear On which they toiled for many a year And leave a sacred trust to yon Transmit them to your children tqo. The tree beneath whose sheltering shade In early cbildfapod you have played Preserve it with especial care Because your father set it there. The handiwork your mothers made For household ornaments displayed, Save it, preserve it to the last A sacred reUc of the past. You see these aged pioneers Are bending with the weight of ydirs These frosty locks so thin and gray Were thinned by many a toil-Spent day, And nights of watchfulness and care Have furrowed the brows that once were fair. A few more tide-waves ebb and flow WiU bear them on where all most go. They'll leave behind a montunent The record of a life well spent. In thtise fair farms their hands have deared In buildings that their hands have reared, In these green trait trees evezywhere Planted and cultored by their care. An when npon the boiial plain Th^ rest These records shall remain In witness of their grand saccess In battling with the wilderness. Oh 1 make the evening of their days Li^t with affection's filial rays Steady thcor steps as they descead On life's last giading to its end, j jti. 5*!«;, Doing as, you'd haye children dp t «; ;...t When yoh are old and feeble too. -p^i^ -j Bat vnlLjb^^se ladies be content ,,^ 'r ,, '• i^ Witho|i| ojote woi^ of homnlimeiM; t--- â- _ iDidn'i thesd' ofd mothen do tiwix ahare- .â-  Of pioneer work evez3rwhf|«.'i iBening with perfect resignation IcSL s^udcnss, hardship and. privition, In^»mde wilderness to nudce, t« A home fm tinojlr dear efaildreDa falpe.? ., Do yoa siipjibBe^^v?uJd hayAndd; It was not best for men to wid?

"Tis where two pure ccmgenial hearts Are wedded fast by copids axts, And beat in perfect unison. Their hopes, their joys and sorrows one. Yet it requires peculiar skill To run the m^rimonial mill Smoothly and kindly year by year And haye no clashing in the gear. To selfishness we all incline We have too much of me and fiUne Toe much I wont too much I triU I To clog the matrimonial mill. And discord, too. is sometim'es made. About the stock each puts in trade, The wife may bring a smaller sack 6f com to mill upon her back. Still if she does the best she can, Call it our meal and be a man. Allow no jealousy or strij^ To sour the very meal of life. Let all the products of the trade. A sort of common stock be made, And use it only as you should In commt-n for the mutual good Have no dividing wall or hne. Let all be ours, not, mine and thine. A man may Say my boots, my plow. But he had better say our cow. To moke a proper application, I give you here an illustration A gentleman but newly wed. One morning to his new wife said, "1 now propose my plans to vary," "And think I shall enlarze my dlury," "Otir dairy, dear," the wife replied, "Would sound much better to yotur biide." "My dairy," said the man of cows, "Our dairy," say, repUe4 his spouse, "My dairy." still the man persisted, •f[)ur dairy, sir," the wife insisted. Her eyes were snapping sparks of fire, She seized the broomsick raised it higher, I And on his luckless head and back Blow followed blow whack followed whack. The man had heard old people say. That he who runs from fight away May Uve to fight another day. And hoping thus to save his head He quickly dove beneath the bed. He saw at once the wife He'd j;ot, Was dressed for business on the spot Was even pleased to find that trait So well eveloped in his mate, And further saw it was not best With such a spirit to contest. And wisely thought it best to yield. To her the well contested field Then cautiously put out his head From neath the covering of the bed, "What do you wont she fiercly cried?" "I want our. hat" the man replied. That was enough, the fight was done Thenceforth their interests were one They'd no more jarring, balks or hitches 'Twas our cows now, onr boots, orur pdtita- lOOTU, Let husbands l^m oiir cows to say. Before the broomstick comes in play. Holland Donncil. Holland council met at Vogan's Hall for the transaction of ImaiiMSB. Members all present Beeve in the chair.
