O fool, and how should we know
what IL was all about?
Go 20 the men who sowed the CROP
We simply threshed it out
Wordy statesmen sowed the crop.
And fore God il yielded nightly,
As line on lire Of stalwart men
Swung wide in their swaths ful
doughtily.
From an eastern sun 10 q western sun,
We reaped in the harvest field;
And when he rested at eventide,
The ravens garnered the yield
And with the night the cleaners came,
Ruthless and cunning-eyed
And took their toll of the fallen crop,
Peering from side 10 side.
On row, on row OF Human Chaff,
And here and there the Grain.
And Peter stood at Heavens gate
Sitting the souls OF the slain.

ANY American bicycle maker who
seeks information as to the best means
of introducing his wares abroad and
particularly in Italy cannot do better
than consult report on this subject
made to the state department by United
States Consul Johnson at Venice. The
consul says that while the Italians
make n fair bicycle, the people gener-
ally prefer foreign wheels. and II the
American maker can supply three
grades, about $3.50, s6s.S5 and sl15.SO
each. there can be no question that a
good market can be found. He adds:
las yet. in Italy, women have not ta-
ken very enthusiastically to bicycling,
but the interest taken by them in this
district is daily increasing. especially
those who aspire to n position in the
fashionable world, as 1t seems to be
quite the proper thing and in excel
lent form for woman OF a smart set
TO be an expert bicyclist."

moncd NJ. Delyannis. the premier, this
morning. and called upon him to tender
his resignation. His majesty subse-
quently entrusted the opposition leaders
with the task of forming Il new Cabi-
net.
The King entrusted NJ. Delyannis, the
retiring premier. with full powers to
represent him during the formation of
the new Cabinet and only insisted that
NJ. Teotaoki should enter the Cabinet.
The leaders of the opposition then
went to Parliament house, where n
meeting of the opposition delegates was
held. The leaders afterwards had an
other conference and drew Il list of
ministers which their leaders presented
to the King. The names will be sub
mitted to the legislative assembly to-
morrow and Il vote of confidence will
be asked.
Following is the official list of the
new Cabinet minister's:
Premier and Minister of Marine-M.
Rail-.
Minister of WARM. Tsamovos.
Minister of Finance-M. Simopoulo,
Minister of Education-M. Carapanos.
Minister of the Interior-M. Tcotaoki.

minister of marine, was the leader of
the opposition. He has been minister
of justice and minister of the interior
and is well known throughout the
country as an able lawyer and orator.
lie is fifty years old and studied at the
University of Athens and at Paris.
The public tension is much relieved
by the change of ministers, and 1t Is
