Of Certain Persons The Newspaper Man   Voice of the flying day, he toils         That men may win success; Earth's sweetest harmony for him         The whirr and roar of press.   The Poet   Flinging soul-wealth to all the world,         Healing earth's ills by love, The poet visions things unseen,         The cross and One above.   The Singer   (Madame Schumann-Heink)   The mounting glory of her voice         Lifts to realms eternal; Her soft notes weave the woof of dreams . .         Paradise eternal. __Ignatius I. Murphy.
