For peace he wrought,
His constant thought
Being how TO shield his realm against
Strife'S baleful star.

| Being how to shield his realm agains
strife's baleful star
| That is almost as good in its wa,
| poets laureate OF North Carolina:
! II seen Pa come, stepping high,
AS was of his walk the way"
Another verse of Austin's is this:
Round Royal shroud
mournful crowd
Is all now left of one but yesterday a
King.
The Times, which has a practical
turn of mind, processes not to be able
to understand how the mournful
crowd standing around tho shroud car
possibly be accounted part of what
was yesterday King" and Austin
might say, it is not necessary that the
the only thing that the Times does
not understand. 1t doesn't understand
Taft. 1t doesn't understand DR.. Cook
or Hearst or Henry Watterson. or the
South. or Mr.. Bryan. Why pray
should it be expected to understand
Austin? lie doesn't understand him
self.
The Times is right, however. in
thinking that there must be thou
sands of poets in Great Britain who
could turn out something more fitting
to this occasion than what Austin has
| written. We know that there are tens
| of thousands in the United States whc
could do far better without half try.
ing This. we judge, from some of the
things they have done on occasion
There was a certain ode to Taft writ
ten by one of the sweet singers of the
/ South on the occasion of his visit tc
one OF the oldest of the towns in thi.
part of the country, from which thc
following is taken by permission:
"Tis peace, sweet peace. that our ma,
tion all crave,
And not humility that causes us tc
rave:
/ Let the white man rule in his. elcgan
grace,
| And the colored man conform to hi.
| secondary place.
| Let bygone days be cast aside,
And welcome orr hero with hearts
open wide"
That is really better than anything
Poet Laureate Austin ever wrote OF
ever will write. 1t is sound in its
philosophy, truthful in its description
of the attitude of the people, and il
has a poetic swing about it that imme-
dately catches the confidence of the
reader. This sort of thing is being
done every day in the newspapers OF
the United States. The Times says
truly that "the muse of the Poet
Laureate has failed to rise to the oc-
casion.' The American muse never
fails to rise to any occasion. The
Times would doubtless like to receive
poems from all parts of the United
States on The Death of King Ed
ward"

A MUSE THAT CANvr SING.

when King Edward died. Neither do
we. 1t has too many feet in some of
It's lines or not enough in others. 1t
can neither be said nor sung; but it pos
sesses at least the quality of distrib-
uting the load of sorrow which the
English people feel between grief for
the Royal dead and amusement at the
official bard. No one would enjoy it
more than King Edward himself If he
could be here TO read 1t. Here is one

Had this been the first time the
Colonel had retracted an interview, and

unfortunates who feed the flames of
the Ananias Club. AS 1T Is. we, OF
