The inevita BILE flood of books about
San Francsco's disaster is upon us
The bad taste of such exploitation is
self evident. Now Is not the time to
emit half baked accounts in high
falutin mock heroics, wildly exagge"
rated, full of errors and lurid tales
They would better be left imprinted
Laird & Lee are guilty of "Glimpses of
the San Francisco Disaster a book of
badly done photographs. many plainly
faxed, and THE Doomed City"
worse than-awful, melodramatic and
decidedly inaccurate history of the
earthquake.
Henry Lynden Flash formerly a staff
officer under Gen. Joe Wheeler in the
southern army, has considerab BILE fame
as a poet, and it is a pleasure to have
his fugitive works now gathered into
neat volume, for his verses are ones
to read, to think about and to turn to
again and find new beauties. The
themes are varied. but for the most
part the poems have to do with human
life Flowers and nature are well and
good, but they are significant only as
they touch the lives of men and women,
men and women who love and sin and
strive and die, men and women who,
though they fail, are yet the noblest
and ultimate theme of poet and artist
This Is not the indefinite meandering
sort of verse, idle singing of sum-
mer's day" The human note makes
these poems worth while and gives a
vitality that Will live

Huber's great volume, just issued, is of

broad sociological and humanitarian
scope, as well as its practical character.
Few families escape entirely the
menace if not the actual attack of
tuberculosis. Consequently the dinec-

while the message he bears of hope and

WHEN HEARTS WE'RE TRUMPs

Each trick so deftly won and turned,
But emphasized the victory earned
When hearts were trumps.

A conscious blush or dimpled smile
Made every card seem worth the while
When hearts were trumps.
When hearts We're trumps. she often

And led, as almost every maid
Who would not lose, nor yet begin
TO grant tFat she did wish to win
When hearts were trumps'
When hearts We're trumps. the light

With pride my happy bosom swelled
AS though L owned the hand i held
When heats were trumps.
Then hearts were trumps. How long
The days are dimmed with webs of

And deal as gently once again
Would hearts be trumpsE

THE MAN AT THE DESK

The Man at the Desk has a patient look
AS ne writes and writes in his open book.
And he bends his back to the task before
Like galley slave to his hand-rubbed oar.
Columns of figures he marshals by,
Piled up decimals mountains high
Which seem to sing to his well-ruled brain
His long, monotonous life-refrain:
Debit, credit, voucher pay
Discount. balance, day by day;
Carried forward interest, duns-
So the monotonous river runs"
The Man at. the Desk with the patient
look
Has followed the rule of the copybook-
'Early to bed and early to rise"
Yet he's neither healthy wealthy. nor
wise
Honest, industrious, sober, chained
To his office CELL he .4as long remained
Dead of am mbition, busy of pen,
Adding up figures for other men.
Debit. credit. remit amount,
Carried forward close account;
DaybOoks, draftbooks, interest, duns--
SO the monotonous river runs"
The Man at the Desk with the patient
look
Has written his life in the open book
Has charged up Youth with small
amount.
And crossed off Love as a closed account.
Yet bright are the tears In his faded eye
AS the column of figures marches by
Black Of ink and with mourning brave.
Like last parade to yawning grave.

GLANCE Of jailer Eaker late Saturday
afternoon and made his escape from
the Paducah Jail.
Saturday evening NorthHeets wife
called to see him, and, as is the
custom, Jailer Eaker allowed the
man to see his wife in room down
stairs. While the man and his wife
were talking, the telep hone in the ad-
joining room rang, and as the jailer
went to answer the phone Northfeet
made a bold dash for liberty and gai-
ned the street before the jailer could
lock the door and give chase.
NorthAeet was formerly street
car motoIman, and was charged with
forging several checks and getting
them cashed at the Rodfus gro
Gerry.
Mrs. Northfeet said Monday after
noon that the escape was entirely un-
expected to her, and that her hus-
band only grasped an opportune mo
ment and made his escape.

AUSTRALIANS GOOD METHODS
In Caring for Poor and Unfortunate
Children.

%ot only has Massachusetts dealt
well By Its own poor and unfortunate
children, but 1t has led social reformers
In other places to follow many Of It's
examples. as club women learned at
Middleboro the other day when Miss
Alice Henry of Australia told them how
children are saved I'm her country. In
deed. 1t seemed. as Miss Henry's story
went. that Australia has set up even
higher ideals than our own in caring
for its little wards. They have there
fewer institutions for children In pro-
portion to the population than we have,
since they have found that better re-
suits are obtained when children are
given to the care OF motherly women,
In their own homes. 1t Is altogether
from the chIld's point OF View that
these homes are selected. He is never
placed I'm q household for the purpose
OF enabling a family 10 make a living.
1t is we'll known that every little child
Is better physically and morally for
little mothering, and only the women
who have the instinct OF motherhood
are allowed To care for them. Neither
is the care of many children allotted
TO one woman. AS n rule but one child
goes TO n family, occasionally two are
housed together, and in rare Instances
three children left with one woman 1t
has been found that the best method
for maintaining this care of the chill
dTen is through the combined work of
n voluntary committee and paid in
spectors. The inspectors are women
chosen from among those who have n
strong love of children They inspect"
from the chlldS point of view. 1t re-
quires a large expenditure of time. la
Dor and money to give so much atten
ton to the wards OF the State. But II
is felt that the rights of children are
sacred. and that to give them an in
dividual care and regard Is to furnish
their little lives with the background
which VIII help to make them good ana
grateful citizens.
