The names of James S. Sherman
and John w. Kern may not have been
particularly familiar to the country at
large before their nominations, but
what is to be said of the other vice
presidential q nominees? There are
Aaron S. Watkins, Samuel w. Will
liams, Ben Hanford and Donald
Munro, but who knows who they are
or where they live or upon what
tickets they are running? Their
homes are respectively in Ohio,
Indiana, New York and Virginia and
they are the vice presidential candi-
dates on the Prohibition, Populist,
Socialist and Social Labor tickets,
but who they are is an unanswered
question thus far in the campaign.

Don't waste your time in longing
For bright. impossible things,
Don't sit supinely yearning
Fol the SwiftnesS of angel wings;
Don't spurn to be rushlight,
Because you are not a star:
But brighten some hit of darkness
Ry shining Just where you are.
There is need OF the tiriest candle.
AS we'll as the garish sun:
The hin.blest deed is ennobled
When t is worthily done;
You may never be called to brighten
The darkened regions afar;
So fiji. Tor the day, your mission
BY shining just where you are.
