70 The wlsE-A BARGAIN

TO THE WlsE-A BARGAIN
Said the Slumchild to the Wise
To the people of place and power
who govern and guide the hour
To the people who write and teach,
Ruling our thought and speech.
And all the captains and kings
Who command the making of things
Give me the good ye know,
That 1, the Child, may grow
Light for the whole day long,
Food that is pure and strong,
Housing and clothing fair,
Clear water and clean air.
Teaching from day to day,
And room-for a child to play"
Then the Wise made answer cold:
These things are not given, but sold.
They shall be yours today
If you can pay.
'Payr' said the Child, PAY you?
What can l do?
Only in years slow length
Shall 1 have strength.
| have not power nor skill,
Wisdom wit nor will
What service weak and wild
Can you ask of a little child?"
But the Wise made answer cold:
Goods must be bought and sold;
You shall have nothing here
Without paying-paying dear"'
And the Rulers turned away
but Ine Cnllu CTitu On otdJE
Wait! 1 will pay!
For the foulness where 1 live,
Filth in return l give,
For the greed that withholds my right.
Greed that shall shake your might.
For the sins / live in and learn,
Plentiful sin / return.
For my lack in home and school,
Ignorance comes to rule.
From where l sicken and die,
Disease in your homes shall lie.
My all uncounted death
Shall choke your childrens breath.
Degenerate-crippled-
l degrade the human race;
And the people you have made
These shall make you afraid!
II ask more. ] take
The terms you make;
And steadily, day by day,
i will pay"

AT BROOKLYN TODAY.

New York. Feb. 24-An Italian
bomb explosion, similar in character
to many which have taken place in
this city within a year, occurred in
Brooklyn today. when Peter Locates
music store in Morgan avenue was
wrecked. Locate had received many
so-called BLACK Hand" letters, but
having refused to pay for immunity,
his store was first blown up last
spring In December last another
bomb left on the stoop demolished
doors and windows. Since then he
had received several letters demand
ing money, but ignored them, result
ing in the third attack today. The
lives of Locate, his wife and three
children, who occupied rooms in the
rear of the store, were endangered
but they escaped with slight injuries
A few months ago the body of an
Italian was found IL the street near
Locates store with a bomb in the
pocket 1t was believed he had been
delegated to commit some outrage,
had failed and been murdered by his
associates for his failure.
