While the contest rumbles all about. ~
While the leaders hurry to and fro,
While the speakers agitate and shout,
While the streams of oratory flow,
Mid the talk that no one understands
Mid the noise that a1lithe country fills
Don't forget the weary hearts and hands
Don't forget the childre in the mills!
While talk of tariff and of trust
Dream of referendum and recall,
Down amid the clamor3 and the dust
Childish toilers labor till they tall.
While the for ballots RACES on,
While the keen excitement ever thrills
Don't forget the faces pale and wan,
Don't forget the children in the mills!
These, who never know the Joy of play.
These, whose youth is Iflched away by greed,
Turn to JUS their faces pinshed and gray
Asking for comfort In their need
So, amidst the tumult and the press
Don't forget the cruel toll that kills;
Hear them moan in utter weariness
Don't forget the children in the mills!"

The robbers cut all the telegraph and
telephone wires and built a sort of a
barricade of rolls of woven wire at the
bank corner and also in the rear where
men Were set to watch.
Some of the men evidently came
from the west as a motor section car
was taken from there and run about
five miles northwest of the Worthing-

around and let go, returning here at
6:10 and colliding with some cars In

One of the robbers was injured by
the explosion as blood was found on
