The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-03-10

If you could go back to the days of your youth,
Whose glories you often declare,
You'd doubtless awake to the unvarnished truth
That they weren't so remarkably fair
You'd fret at the hardships you had to endure,
And the greatly praised 'old-fashioned way"
Would strike you clumsy, unhandy and poor,
And you'd long for the life of today.
If you could go back to the days long ago,
When life $50 simple and kind"
You'd think that the trains were dstressngly slow
And the street cars were badly designed;
You'd find that the past you have talked of so much
Was not quite exclusively gay,
And you'd long for the luxuries, comforts and SUCH
Which fill out your life of today. 3
If you could go back to the "Old Fashioned Folks"
Of whom you frequently prate,
You'd find that their clothes and their thoughts and
Were those of time out of date,
You'd learn that the folk of the old days. in sooth,
Were formed out of commonplace clay
AS we are-and then, in the days of your youth,
You'd wish you were living Today.

Government Lets Contract for Mother
of Torpedo Boats.

WASHINGTON. June 6.-P1ans for the
submarine tender Bushnell made pup
lie at the navy department today ris-
close the fact that the vessel not only
is to be an entirely new type IN the
navy, but will be altogether unique as
a war craft. The contract for the
construction of the Bushnell was
awarded to a ship building concern in
Seattle, Wash. Her cost will be close
to one million dollars and she is to be

hoising apparatus will be installed
wherewith a submarine damaged or
sunk can speedily be lifted to the sur
face of the sea and a towing machine
will enable the mother boat to tow
five of her brood at one time. The
little fleet will be independent OF a

permit of speedy repairs while capa-
cious tanks are to be installed to carry
sufficient oil and gasoline to supply
the submarines for many weeks.
The Bushnell herself will be driven
by a single screw turned by turbine
engines. Her displacement will be
$500 tons and with a battery of four
five inch rapid fire guns and torpedo
turbine she will be able to protect her

Would Cut out Nlilitiamen's Pay.

Washington, June 6.-Secretary
Garrison is working on a militia. pay
bill which would remove militia Off
GERS and men from the official payroll
of the United States. The militia,
however, still would be paid out of the
national treasury The secretary has
not yet formulated the details. 1t has
been suggested that the desired object
could be attained by apportioning the
federal money to the several states in
proportion to the number of their
militia, the pay to be equal to that of
the regular army in proportion to the
time actually devoted to militia ser
vice, provided the militiamen attain
the same efficiency as the regulars.
BY this arrangement the several states
and not the United States would be
the paymaster of the volunteer forces.
