In Memoriam.

CHEEK. In loving memory Of my little ron,
HAROLD HENRY CHEEK
He came to me when all the world.
The happy world. was fair;
Bright blossoms grew on every side,
/ clasped the tiny hands in mine,
And kissed the dainty feet,
For. oh. his coming made the world
Seem fifty times more sweet.
He went awsy when all the world,
The sad old world, was bare;
The leafess trees stood shivering,
And snownakes filled the air.
peaceful smile played round his lips.
But. oh. his going made the world
Seem fifty times more drear!
know that up beyond the stars.
Where purer spirits dwell,
When rings iife's twilight bell:
And though the years that roll between
Bring many grief and tear,
His presence in that home OF light
Makes Heaven seem more near.

The Past and the Future

We know that we are more fortu-
nate than our fathers. We believe
that our children shall be happier
than Wa We know that this century
Is more enlightened than the last.
We believe that the time to come will
be better and more glorious than this.
We think, we believe, we hope. but
We do not know. Across that TIRES
hold We may not pass; behind that
veil we may not penetrate. Into that
country II may not be for US to 20. It
may be vouchsafed to us to behold
1t, wonderingly, from afar, but never
to enter In. II matters not. The age
In which We live Is but a link In the
endless and eternal chain. Our lives
are like the sands upon the shore;
our voices like the breath OF the sum-
mer breeze that stirs the leaf for a
moment and is forgotten. Whence we
have come and whether We shall go.
not one OF US can tell. And the last
survivor OF this mighty multitude
shall stay but q little while.-By

A Typical Crusade"

A typical crusade to redeem aban-
doned women Is announced In Chica-
go.
One of the Chicago newspapers
publishes an article In which the
following paragraphs occur:
Chicago women have banded
themselves together under the lead
ership OF Virginia Brooks. West
Hammond's girl reformer. for giant
vice crusade TO end only with the
emancipation of enslaved girls found
in the disreputable districts Of this
city.
Club women and working girls
will be found In the legions follow
ing the modern Joan of Arc in her
march upon the city's organized vice,
as soon as the West Hammond cru
sade Is ended. Unconditional sur
render will be the cry first. last and
all the time with the Amazon-like
band.
"Strongholds Of vice will be storm
ed and, figuratively speaking, RACED
to the ground. The multitude OF
soul deadened slaves will be carried
away bodily to be freed by the pro-
cess OF social conversion. For that
purpose the homes OF the crusaders
will be thrown open to the outcasts.
Virginia Brooks and her feminine
army believe they have solved the
problem which has caused the failure
Of many crusades in the past. The
question What will become Of the
girls?"-destroyer Of so many we'll
meant movements-has lost its force.

soeIaIIsm and PROHIBITION.
e Editor OF The Times:

To the Editor OF The Times:
Dear Sir: I have just finished read
ing today's paper. which have sub
scribed for because. firstly, have at-
mired the position you have taken
with regard to progression and, Sec
ondly, your position on clean jour
nalism.
I was quite interested In an article
entitled, Kick from a Friend" The
writer certainly hit the nall on the
head In his remarks. While am con-
WINGED that The Detroit Times Is the
best paper published In this city, yet
II has many times completely ignored
the movements OF the original Pro-
gressive party In the land today. You
say ever so much about the progress
sive spirit OF Gov. Wilson, of New
Jersey, just little about Theo. Roosc-
welt, nothing but pessimism for Tat.
and he richly deserves It. and decided
ly much less about the original pro-
gressive political party. the Prohibit
ton party and the Socialist party.
also read an article from So
cialist showing where the Socialis.
party stands with regard to the teu-
perance question. From his view
point majority should rule, and from
the wording In his remarks. that ma
jority should rule regardless of the
righteousness OF the principles that
may be advocated by minority, or
the unrighteous quality OF said prin-
|ciples. II seems TO me that IL a ridicu-
lous statement TO make and more SO,
to stick to. II the majority wants
hell on earth instead of its represena-
tive, the minority body must quietly
and unprotestingly submit. In
righteous indignation should all peo-
pie, who believe. and In their respec-
tive strength, work for the further
ance OF civic righteousness. say NO"
to such ideas. The country at large
could not be taken collectively. Ia
that sense OF circumstance. each local
ity must decide for itself. Such Is
the position that loud-mouthed organ
ization, the Anti-Saloon league, takes.
