WHILE THE WORLD MOVES ON
BY LEoNIE DAVIS coLLISTER

While suffragettes are struggling for their rights
And becoming vandals of the boldest type;
While politicians all engage in fights,
And offce-holders' plums are getting ripe;
While all the world is wondering what move next
Jerome will spring for poor Thaw's extradition
While ministers are preaching from text
To keep us from the tango and perdition;
While old Doc Bryan's pling up the dollars,
And sex hygiene is quite the burning question;
While Brieux; and Shaw and other learned scholars
Are creating acute mental indigestion;
While Polaire wears ring upon her nose,
:, And Mexico is in mad upheaval;
While womans wearing few and fewer clothes,
And Uncle Sam is fighting the boil weevil;
While pious hypocrite with lots of coin
( y On Sunday quotes that blessed are the poor;
While the Tribune is handing it to Hoyne,
And plays that fail in New York go tour;
While aeroplanes are tumbling from the Skies
And motor cars are running down the toiers;
While sweet young things are making goo-goo eyes
And old roues are trailing after bro1ers;
While everyone is striving, toiling wishing
For gold, and all the pleasures it can't buy,
stroll beside the streams cool border fishing
And wonder which is best-the worm or fly.

it is:
"The men who serve will be- the

through monopoly by which all COM

said, is going to be changed.
To the business men of the country
he held out the appeal that service to

king had consisted of getting some
thing for nothing"
During bis speech Governor Wilson
predicted early independence OF the

try, when he said psrenthetically:
The Philippine islands are at pres
emit our frontier, but l hope we pres

Il cannot forget at this happy mo-
ment," continued the governor, that
confidence that has been reposed in
me and the privilege of service that
has been accorded me by the great
state of New Jersey. I want to give
myself the pleasure OF bringing to the
great state of Virginia the greetings
Of the great state of New Jersey, and
I believe that in doing 80 l suggest an

because a son of the south brings the

ton as president by the people Of the
United States means the final obliter-
alton of everything that may have
