THE FIRST DAY
What is it fills the fathers heart
With pride and JOY enough to start
A first-class wholesale blessing mart?

What makes a father kick his heels
High in the air? What most reveals
The wild, tumultuous Joy he feels?

Like forty thousand birds in spring
And bet he's papa to u king?
What makes father ten times glad?

to a deputation of Silesian ladies on
May 1S: II always regret that so little
influence in politics is allowed to the
better half of the human race. l do
not expect ladies to deliver speeches IN
parliament but I believe that the re-
suits of our elections would be more
national and more satisfactory II they
were more under female influence than
now. Honest German women, wives
and mothers, do not appear in public
as socialists, and I therefore believe
that female sympathy with our politi-
cal institutions is much stronger bull
wark against social democracy than
our revolution bill would have been II
