REPLIES IN KIND
TO TOPICAL VERSE
o the Editor of THE TIMES

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
seems to be the opinion of some
authorities that tobacco Is an ally of
intemperance In strong drink. DR..
James Kent overlooked 1t in his argu-
ment against the tobacco habit, and I
would like to be permitted to refer to
It in . few words to Mr.. w. w. Pugh,
whose defense Of tobacco appeared in
Mondays Times. The views Kent
holds on the cigarette curse, / see
you've assailed In topical verse, and II
what you say about him is true, he
should in goodness take lessons from
Pugh. But I don't believe he thinks
that saint would ever I'LL his system
with nicotine faint, and, though you
answer the doctor in rhyme, 1t does not
alter the fact Of the crime that causes
a burning thirst for strong drink, which
with tobacco to hades' dark brink
brings innocent victims. there to endure
Undoubtedly, he admits. Mr.. Pugh
never of headache and govt complains
while firmly he on the wagon remains
but that will not prove him foolish OF
wise, unless his face shows a pieasan,
surprise when you on the scene with
money appear to exercise It with pretzels
and beer.
He does not expect q heaven to gain
through Islander. drinking, or being pro-
fame; but he thinks a planet where NOR.
tails dwell, should not by a stencil be
rendered hell; nor human beings

into the sPrit of Juvenile work, for
example-the full.blooded, robustious
kind Of work which makes so strong
an appeal to the matinee audiences.
1t was in this kind of work that
"Ty" shone conspicuously, while there
were hints that his work would grow
and ripen with the years.
But he feels that after all he has
been degrading his high calling by
using the fame acquired on the dia
mond to boost his reputation on the
boards. He has let It be understood
that he does not belong to that large
class of people who want TO be handed
down to posterity for gifts aside from
those which have enabled them to-
make name for themselves. What is
still more important, it seemed prob.
able that the strain of the one-night
stand was getting on the Georgian's
nerves. The mere stress of work
promised to spoil great artist of
the diamond without making SUI
premely great actor. So he has taken
q timely inventory of himself and de-
cided to lie fallow until the real game
opens up. If by any chance there
should be any falling off in his bat.
ting average it cannot be said that
''just for handful of silver he left
u.s." He will remain faithful to his
first love-faithful to the rooters who
know and glory in him. The public
will applaud him all the more when
he appears again in his familiar field.

GET GOOD ADVICE
FROM SUBORDINATES
To tho Editor Of THE TIMES:


The announcement that the new
Postmaster General. Mr.. Hitchcock, has
been able in a little over two years of
service to wipe out a deficit of millions
Is another instance Of what gems to
he the rule In the Government service,
namely. that 1t is new men at the
Ecads OF departments and bureaus that
accomplish the big things. whose doing
depends upon changes of procedure or
improvements of method
Over twenty-five years in the Govern
ment service here has shown to me
that not only are the big things which
the accomplishment of (or, ut least, are
credited to) new men, but also the
smaller economies and improvements
(which are seen only on the inside) are
lesser bosses willie they are yet new
to the places they from time to time
occupy or succeed to.
Speaking to a fellow. clerk a few DAYS
accorded with mine. He said that they
DID. asked him why were these things
so. He promptly stated what was 4

face value, office boy and editor came
to an amicable understanding with re.
spect to hours, services, and wages,
in pursuance of which we gather that
the Courier office was swept and kept
in order, copy found its destination
with due promptitudc, the "old man"
could send out for plug of tobacco
without unseemly exertion, while the
boy in the case got good exercise, kept
out of mischief, and was in fair way
of learning all the insides of a paper,
from setting ads to building editorials
on schedule X. And all this boy and
editor managed between them, for an
hour or more before school "took in"
and one or two hours more after it
''let OUT with work in addition thrown
in on Saturdays. Anybody who has
had experience with office boys VIII
know the Eden possible when real
one is discovered. When the Eden was
broken up the editorial cutlery was
naturally as panied rs indignant.
The author of this domestic tragedy
in the economy of the Courier was an
agent of the department of public in
structionS who informed the editor that
the phrase, "while the schools are in
session" referred to the term and not
to the daily sessions of the school.
The office boy and the editor were
alike guilty of misdemeanor, the one
for working, the other for paying for
the work. BY deduction, the place for
boy was strictly the school house,
the home, or the street corner. Other
wise, the law was violated, and woe
to the violators. The agent did not
defend the many absurdities deducible
from such ruling; he simply declared
it, and went his way, leaving the editor
to fume, and the office boy to remain
idle when he might have been learning
a useful trade and incidentally pulling
down weekly envelope making for
resource and independence.
Such an example is an apt illustra-
ton of many laws, State and national,
which, well intentioned and capable of
reasonable construction, are left to be
applied by the narrow souls whose oc.
equations keep them in q restricted
channel. 1t has been said that the
intelligence of legislation is less than
that of the least intelligent unit en-.
tering into the law-making body; but
it frequently happens, as in this case
of the editor and his office boy, that
even that humble standard of men
tally is not preserved when the enact
ed law comes to be imposed upon the
ue0ple.
