While the contest rumbles all about
While the leaders hurry TO and fro,
While the speakers agitate and shout
While the streams OF oratory how,
Mid the talk that one understands,
Mid the noise that all the country fills.
Don't forget the weary hearts and hands,
Don't forget the children in the mills,
While we talk OF tariff and OF trust,
Dream OF referendum and recall,
Down amid the clamor and the dust
Childish toiers labor till they fall.
While tho war 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 fched away by greed
Turn TO us their faces pinched and gray
Asking us for comfort In their need
So. amidst the tumuh and the press,
Don't forget the cruel toll that kills;
Hear them moan in utter WEAKNESS.
Don't forget the children in the mills

ORIGIN OF eEYsEas.

Geysers are found in only three
places inEthe world, according to {
publication entitled "Geysers" JUS
Issued by the Department of the In
terror. These three regions are Ice
land, where geysers were, first dIscov
erred, New Zealand, and the Yellow
stone National Park, in which these
natural steam engines are more. nu
merous and OF greater beauty than IL
the two other areas mentionedIL.lr
the Yellowstone the geysers are found
In detached geyser basins, or fire
holes, as they were called by the first
explorers, and the groups possess In
Giyidual peculiarities which give char
acter and interest 10 each locanty
The most noted OF these basins" Is
however, that known as the Upper
'Geyser Basin OF the Firehole river, one
Of the headwaters Of the great Mis-
souri,. The whole floor OF the valley
Is fairly riddled with springs of boil
ing water, whose exquisite beauty is
Understandable. Light clouds of fleecy
yapor curl upward from waters OF the
purest azure or the clearest of emer
aid, and. encircling rims of white mar
ble'like silica, form fit setting for such
great gems. A'large part of the valley
floor Is covered with thelwhite deposit
OF silica known as siliceous sinter
deposited blythe overflowing hot wa
ters. The weird wilderness of these
areas. the gaunt white trunks Of pine
trees killed. by the hot waters, the
myriad pools OF steamfng crystal, and
the white clouds floating of from the
chimney.like geyser cones, form a
scene never to be forgotten by those
fortunate enough to behold It.

Praise fer General Foster.
An incident particularly pleasin9z "a
the friends Of Adtutant General Fos lsr
and to all members Of the national
guard OF Florida occurred a few DAYS
ago upon the occasion of the visit OF
General Robert Shaw Oliver, the ss-
ststant secretary OF war, to jackson
vile. Upon invitation Of the Jackson
Vile Board OF Trade General Foster
Went over to Jacksonville to assist ii,
welcoming the secretary and To be
present at the functions arranged in
his honor.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1912-01-31

General Oliver in conversation with
msmbers Of the reception committee
and officers of the national guard said
that the department had noted with
great satisfaction the splendid inn
pr0vement and progress in training
and equipment which was being made
In the national guard Of Florida.
Colonel MscWilliams and other Of
f1oers who were present, say that the
secretary was very complimentary In
his references to General Foster and
the work which he is doing with the
state troops. saying that his ability
and efficiency were fully recognized at
the war department and that he (Sec-
Rotary Oliver had personally recon-
NEEDED to the secretary Of war Gen
eral Fosters appointment as a mem
Der Of the national militia board.
The Importance of this statement
will be better understood and appre-
ciated when it is explained that this
board IL organized under an act of
congress and Is composed Of five Of
ficers selected from the national
guard of the several states, and that
Il acts as an advisory board to the
Secretary of~WRr in matters relating
to the organized militia.

Paris Queen of Carnival
Was a Working Girl.

While it may be too late to even
consider a suggestion for this season,
The Journal merely calls attention to
the fact that last year the queen Of
the Paris Mardi Gras festivities was q
working girl and that the carnival
season was the greatest ono the
French capital had ever known.
The king chose as his queen q
maiden from the ranks OF the thou
sands Of working people and the car
nfval committee provided the cos
tunes for her. which she. Of course.
could not provide for herself, It is
said that all Of Paris was delighted
at the gallant young kings decision.
New Il there IL anything more ro-
mantle. or il there is anything the

destroyed crops and prevented the cul-

An agent Of the American Red Cross
who has recently Travelled throughout
the famine districts reports conditions
Of starvation OF the most terrible and
appalling character.
Until peace IL restored in China and
the functions of efficient government
are established, these conditions must
continue, save g relieved BY the
charitable efforts of other countries.

Committee has created strong and
ef1clent organization with agencies

districts This body, which comprises

and Chinese merchants and mission
aries in Shanghai, viii render assist
ance as means may be available.
Able bodied natives will be employed
in repairing dykes, canals and roads
and thus enabled to support them
selves until new crops can be har-
vested.
In the name of humanity the Red
Cross calls once more upon the Amer
lean people to come to the relief OF q
sister nation with that prompt gener-
oAity which has never failed IN time
