Its sentiment is very beautiful,
and particularly appropriate for a
mothers’ organization. It was writ-
ten specially for the purpose by
Mrs. F. L. Jaccard of Ft. Worth,
Texas.
Mrs. Elkins requests that all mem-
bers of the local P. T. A. clip the
words of the song and bring them
to each of the sessions of the dis-
trict meeting, that all may join in
the singing of this P. T. A. song.
LITTLE CHILD SHALL LEAD
When the gentle Sky-Mother has
cradled the Sun
And has left him asleep in the
West,
Then a frolicsome child is so weary
of fun
That he comes to my arms for his
rest;
And the cares of the day quickly
drift far away
As the joy of my life I enfold,
And I cuddle him tight with a
God-given right;
For he is my own, whom I hold.

Chorus
Sleep my dear one, Take thy Rest
In thy Mother’s arms caressed,
With the world shut out from sight,
You are God’s and mine tonight.
Soon the 'drooping white eyelids
are quiet in sleep
And the fingers are twined around
mine,
Then I draw him yet nearer for
thus would I keep
From the envious vision of Time;
But in spite of my care he- will
come unaware
And will tell me my laddie is grown,
And must take a man’s place, in
the thick of the race
While I shall be watching alone.
But my loved little child I shall
never forget
These in effable moments of Peace,
Though the Future may crown you
with Fame’s coronet
Your dear hand I shall never re-
lease,
For with Memory’s grasp it will
strengthen its clasp
Till you lead me as onward you
plod,
Thdugh the World may impede,
Little Child, you shall lead
Till you leave me at rest with our
God.

With the arrival of the baseball
equipment which includes one dozen
bats, a dozen balls, and a catchers
outfit, Coach McDaniel has made it
known that baseball practice is to
begin within the next few days.
Prospects for a winning nine are
very brilliant and McDaniel should
convert these rookies into a pen-
nant winning club.
Archie Vickers is about the only
player who has had outside ex-
perience as a player. Vickers is a
firy southpaw pitcher and has play-
ed with various independent ball
teams of this community. Most of
the Pirates hopes are put on Vick-
ers.
Jack Morrow, a righthander has
also showed up well as a pitcher
and will probably be used as a
moundsman or a second baseman.
Frank Dehniseh has also signified
his willingness to aid the pitching
staff or play in the outfield.
