DR.. ELIOT CHOOSES POEMS.
Names Three That He Says Every
Child Should Know.

experimenting his famous "tive.foot
shelf OF books" the reading OF which.
he said. would give anybody a liberal
education, DR.. Charles w. Eliot. presi-
dent emeritus OF Harvard. has selected
three poems which he says every child
should know. They are The Village
Blacksmith" by Henry Wadsworth
Longfellow: "Abou Ben Adhem." by
Leigh Hunt, and ITO a Waterfowl"
by William Cullen Bryant. DIR. Eliot
quotes the verse:
He hears his daughters voice.
Singing in the village choir;
And II makes his heart rejoice.
II sounds to him like her mothers
voice
Singing in Paradise.
Nov, any child s or 10 years old"
he adds, will take that all in and will
learn from II that the blacksmith had
daughter who could sing. and that
she sang sweetly In the village choir;
and the blacksmith had had wife,
whom he loved most tenderly. and she
was dead and she sang with him, and
now she was singing In a happy next
world. in Paradise, and the blacksmith
liked to go TO church because he heard
his daughter. who reminded him OF
her mother. All that is in that little
verse. and Il is a beautiful picture of
some Of the best parts OF human ex.
perience.
Take another poem. very well
known to us all, but seldom used, It
seems to me. for children-Leigh
Hunts "Abou Ben Adhem" ("May His
Tribe Increase'). There is a poem
that any child of 10 years will take In.
and II presents a series of delightful
pictures, and at the end comes very
compact settlement Of the whole Uni
tartan theory about character.

ligious education is Bryant's Water.

BUSINESS DEPRESSION AND THE
I RAILROADS.

President Wilson, as usual, when It
comes down to debate and the tes;
OF logic, energies from the conflict OF
ideas with flying colors. Discussing
the superficial criticism of his asser.
ton that the business depression is
largely psychological" he proves the
truth of II by such witnesses as Chair
man Gary Of the steel trust and other
representatives OF the steel industry.
Statistics show that the new tariff
law is In no way responsible for pres
ent conditions. and that timid business
interests, which protest against trust
legislation, are the victims OF their
fears rather than of the facts.
In one direction, however, the
President does see a concrete and real
cause for slowing down In the general
business gait, and that is in the cur.
tailment In expenditures which the
railroads have been forced to make
because OF their inadequate revenues.
The economy which they have been
compelled to practice has affected the
activity Of the steel industry, which
is largely dependent on railroad or.
ders. This has been felt, to certain
extent. in all other branches OF bust.
ness. as we'll as In financial circles
all keeping pace with the railroads
and awaiting the action OF the Inter.
state Commerce Commission with re.
gard to the increase In freight rates.
The remedy for the depression, so far
as II Is due to the handicap placed
on the railroads, is obvious, and, In
our judgment, should be applied with.
out delay by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The reaction from de.
preston to confidence would be al
most instantaneous II the railroads
were put in the position to increase
the efficiency OF their service and to
develop their plans for betterments
and extensions. The psychological"
depression would take wings and fly
away like a nightmare II the energies
Of the country were relieved of the
load put upon them through failure to
permit the railroads to earn a fair
living.-Baltimor Sun.

When Napoleon called for troops, my
father joined the army and fought at

The United States will not demand
indemnity nor reprisal OF Mexico. This
may be all right, but II looks like our
effort at benevolent assimilation"
comes little high. Is II Just to the
taxpayers to burden them with an
expense of many millions for the sake
of quieting the internal strife of an
other Nation? II our movements in
Mexico were TO redress wrongs and in
dignities suffered at the hands Of
Mexico, then the expense could 90 to
the limit and the people would never
murmur. But after having received
the indignities and our demands for
redress utterly ignored and no move
whatever made to enforce them, II
looks little hard and unjust to go to
all this expense in order that Mexico's
troubles may be settled. Besides we
have no assurance after the troubles
are settled that peaceful conditions
would continue for thirty-six hours.

A LESSON FOR BOYS.

George H. Hermann, plain, un.
pretentious pioneer of Houston, has
Just presented that city with a site of
2S5 acres of land worth half a million
dollars for park. 1t was a princely
gift and great public demonstration
was held at the city auditorium last
Sunday afternoon when Mr.. Hermann
formally delivered the deeds to the
property to Mayor Campbell. To look
at Mr.. Hermann, plain, dignified old
gentleman, no one would imagine he
was a man of large affairs, yet he is
several times a millionaire. In his
presentation address, the following
words in regard to himself are an in
spiration to all young men who will
give them heed:
II am the son of man who was
born at Davos, Switzerland. in 1891,
who afterward went to France and
served under Napoleon the First.
