True Success Story
By r. u. MacArthur
A poem is accepted! Suddenly a New vista unfolds. to Will Carleton. two years out of col- lege.
The . which first appeared in the Toledo Blade” made its author famous overnight. it was titled "Bet and I Are Out". That's how Bill Carleton. Michi- gan's favorite son. stepped across the threshold of the old farm home into the green fields oi literature. Thus began the career ot a young man who later became a notable figure as a song-writer. lecurer and journalist.
Born on a form two miles east of the village of Hudson. Lenawee County. Michigan, he was chris- tened "William Mciirendee Carle- ton". His parents. John and Cc- listia Carleton were pioneer set- tlers who came to the district ten
years before the birth of their son in 1846. The boy passed his earliest
years amid plain, quiet surround- ings. lie was frail, sensitive and dreamy. a born humorist who had the ability to touch the heart- strings of all who came under his influence.
. . . In later years. he liked it) tell an anecdote of himself which sheds some light on his boyhood days on the farm. Carleton had gone to the fair held in a neighboring town to hear
Cassius M. Clay, a Kcntuckian. make a speech. but seeing so many people milling about he
could see nothing of the eloquent southerncr. so he clbowed his way through the crowd and finally come to fi tree which he climbed. Among its branches he had a good view of all that want on.
The great southern orator. to illustrate the ignorance of his political opponents. cried out with an emphatic gesture, "They don't know any more about it than that boy in yonder tree." A thousand eves were at once focused upon the blushing youth.
"The sensation", said Carleton, in telling the story years later. "was very much as if somebody
had poured cold water dcwn my neck. I tried to hide among the branches, but that didn't work, so I descended from the tree and
ade myself scarce. They laugh- c at me when I got home and said I should have stayed and fought. it out."
Like Burns, Carleton was able to picture the homcliest aspects of life and treat. them in such a way that he never failed to have an apprcci.-ttive audience. The great. evangelist. Dwight L. Moody. had picked Carl:-ton to recite hymns for 9. gathering cf Chicago urchins and so well did the -boys receive him that he was encored over and over again until becom- ing cxhausted, he would escape through a side door.
Besides "Betsy and I Are Out". Carleton wrote a number of popu- lar ballads. among them "Over The Hill to the Poorhouse". "The First Settlers Story". "Gone With A Hnndsomer Man", "Out of the Old House. Nancy”, and "Uncle Sammy".
. . .
After many years absence in the East, he returned home and his own people gave him a great. band. Plowman. clcrgymen. shopkeepers and school children all run after him like the boys and girls ran af- ter the plcgl piper, to honor the man who had taught. them that there was poetry and beauty in all that lay ubout them.
A short distance from the Curle- inn farm stands the little school- house where will learned his three "R's" It is called the Curie- ton School”, and a portrait of him hangs on the "wall along with the picture of President Tru- man. ,
"Betsy and I Art: Out" was bas- ed on data ):ai.llcrt'rl' while Carle- ton was rm-crtmz n rlivorcn case for a lo:-nl paper. "Over the Hill to the Poorhnusc" was inspired when he convcrscd with the in- mates of a country home for the destnulr nt-or Hlllsdalc. "The First. Rn1tIc1”s,Story" was largely the slrrry of his picnccr parents in the days when they struggled against tcrrible odds to clear their holdings. ,
. . .
Carleton gained his first exper- ience as a newshound with the "Westcrn Rural", illustrated farm and family magazine published in Chicago. Later he become part- owncr mid editor of the I-illls-, dale Standard.
Asa-tinting church of the "De- troit Wcrkly Tribune", Will Carle- ion worked on the paper two days a week. the rcmninder of his time being occupied with lecturing and writing on various topics, nu 0i which 3l3DGars to have been gvreedlly gobbled up by his pub. lishers.
During his first trip East to confer with his publishers (1873). he took time out to see many ms. iorlcali shrines. Here. too, he got acquainted with Mark Twain. John Hay, and other literary men of the place. He returned en-

our lst North Eustico Company: has just "Gvrowed and stowed. um. Topsy, The Field Secretary had. a really terrific evening on Wednesday with 30 Guides all anxiously waiting to be passed for tests. The meeting grew longer and longer but we surely had the most. varied meeting ever held and managed to get in somethinl-I 01 everything.
Mrs. Ralph Dumont, a Com- missioner of Charlottetown. came along to help and she was the grandest assistance as she passed 12 Tenderfoot Guides while the
Field Secretory passed for the Second Class Test. g The Leader, Mrs. C. Lnskey is
unfortunately so busy with other duties that she is unable to help very much. but Mother Superior and Sister st. Mary. with the help of the senior Guides, have kept the Company going splendid- ly, and it is a grand credit to Rus- lico. The politeness and general deportment of the Guides is a genuine pleasure and although the evening was a little hectic. with trying to crowd so much in it was most enjoyable to the visi- tors.
It was Mrs. Dumont's Guide meeting for ten years she told the girls that she full of renewed enthusiasm for Guiding, and how pleased that Rustico was her first meeting. To see the joy of Guiding as demon- llllrillcd is a. thrill for anyone and cannot help but make one feel proud and glad to be a part of such youth organization. The work of passing the tests pro- gressed rapidly due to the fact that the girls knew the answers and had obviously been working on them.
Isobel Blacquierre helped with the Recruits and is working with 4 other Guides on the First. Class budge. Indeed Mother Supericr said that much of the actual Com- pany work had been carried on by these Senior Guides. Girls pass- ing the Nature and Trail test were: Alvire Gallant, Cavnnelita Blacqulerre. Annette, Blucquleurre, Vnunda Gallant Joan Doiron. Shirley Gallant. Emily Ann Pet- ers. Guelda and Jean Gallant, Inez Doucette. Velda Blacqule-rre. Helen Doucette. Annette Declair. Mildred and Betty Gallant. Those passing the Tenderfoot were: Patricia Gauthier, Frances Doiron. Marie and Audrey Gallant, Bernadine Gauthier. Hazel Doiron, Thelma and Mary Gallant, Leona Doiron, Virginia Gauthier. Marie Pineau and Mary Gauthier. stalking games were played out- side with much merrlment and trails were laid demonstrating the correct signs. Perhaps the most. important event of the evening was the enrollment of 12 new guides. Guides all marched into horseshoe formation to a musical accompaniment by Isobel and the Recruits were introduced to Mrs. Jenkins in the correct manner. At the completion of the ceremony prayers were led by Mrs. Jenkins. who spoke on the importance of the Promise.
Mrs. Dumont congratulated the Guldcs on, their splendid progress and Mother superior spoke also. The Guides were told of the pro- posed Nntlonnl Camp in 1952 and ndvlsed to keep up their guide work. Photographs of the Toron- lo Rally were passed around. The evening closed with a lovely
first and was
Camp-fire. singing. evcnsong and Tops. The Guides thank- ed the visitors for coming
and went home making plans for the proposed picnic hike to be held with the Field secretary in August. How about August 12th, Guides?

indeed. Black Pussy looked very fierce indeed. His yellow eyes had an ugly look. The sharp, curved claws in his front toes were show- ing as he crouched.
"I'm going to catch you and eat you.” growled Black Pussy. "That's what I'm going to do. I'm going to catch you and eat you.'
Little Jim didn't try to run away, lie remembered what. had happened with Peter Rabbit. He made a sudden little jump straight toward Black Pussy, and stamped with his little black feet. He threw up his tail. It was all so unexpect- ed that Black Pussy hastily back A little, Then he tried to get around behind Little Jim. Little Jim turned so as to nlways face him. Each time he stamped his feet and threw up his tail and made all the hair on his small body stand up. trying to make himself look bigger than he was. "Why don't you catch me and eat me?" he asked. '
"I will." growled Black Pussy.
But Black Pussy didn't. do any- thing ol the kind. Long ago Black Pussy had been tnught an un- pleasant. lesson by Jimmy skunk

Little Jim had made a most im- portant dlscovery. He had discov- ered that for some unknown rea- son his neighbors were afraid of him. Just what that reason was he would find out later.
