Mass, tells how President Wilson
was entertained on Thanksgiving day
at the home of his daughter, Mrs f.
B. Sayre. The President, after
climbing a mountain, sat in front OF
the fire on the hearth and read
poetry to the party Of relatives. 1t
was an idyllic scene. and an appro-

! suspects, however, that the number
of men in the country who also spent
a hour reading poetry was OF large
Among women the love for poetry
is probably as strong as ever. The
newspapers print more verses than
ever The bulk of them are lame OF
meter and slow in sentiment. But to
some extent they satisfy the human
need for other thoughts than dollars.
The writing OF poetry is not to be
commended to young men as means
of supporting a family. Many flut-
tering hearts bring poetry to the
newspaper office when they might
much better have spent the time
making bread
Perhaps the reason why we do not
read poetry more is that the keynote
of the day is achievement. Men like
to read accounts of big things done,
the digging Of Panama canal, the
strategy OF war. the accomplishment
Of business success. Competition is
the keynote OF masculine life.
The poetic muse travels differ

strife OF dollars to her mind are

INSTINCT.

What wonderful thing the instinct

wonderful land generally more GER
tain) than the reason of man. In the
heart OF metropolitan Boston, flanked
by the palaces of the city's ultra rich,
is a great reservoir, known as
Charles River Basin. Along it, for
miles, runs concrete promenade,
favorite strolling thoroughfare for
thousands. The basin is rigidly
policed. Save for rowing crews and
light pleasure craft, it is immune
from desecration by man. Every
year for weeks before freezing
weather comes, the surface OF the
basin is black with thousands of wild
ducks, who float serenely from its
head to its foot, diving every foot of
the way to nibble the sweet grasses
which line the bottom or to feed on
the abundant shell fish. THE same
is true of Denvers park) In Well
ordered columns they move like
armies down, down; then swiftly rise,
circle in great curves to the upper
reaches of the reservoir, then down
again, repeating as often as the
feeding is replenished. These wild
fowl, ordinarily SO wary. seem tol
know that here they are safe. AT
times they float so near the embank-
ment rail as to be almost within
human reach, but no gunshots ill
them with nameless terror; 10 missile
strikes them within sudden death. How
do they know the watery zones OF
safety amidst the noises and clangor
Of busy men? Whence comes this

one result OF the present war may

Both England and Russia will favor

England because a small neutral
state in the Holy Land will be the
best possible protection to Suez and
Egypt. Russia because IL will make
the way easier for her to settle Ger

borders. Continuing the Globe says:
The events OF the moment show
how Immediately Egyptian integrity
is imperilled by the fact that a right
OF way through Palestine is open to a
hostile power. Palestine must become
either British or neutral There is an

desirable solution.
