(By Nina Holland Covington.)

HE dust is on the carpets. there are rents
Il in several frocks, the stockings need a
mending and likewise all the socks; but I've put
away my needle and the cleaning just can wait,
for the flowers all are blooming and the ground
is full of bait; there are
JUNE, JUNE, JUNE. fish just for the catching
in yOnder shady pool,
there are fields and fields of daisies, and the
woods are fresh and cool. There be many of my
neighbors who have houses wondrous neat,
frOcks and socks are always mcndcd, and their
BOOKINGS hard to beat. But they're missing
lots of pleasure as they toll the Hvelong day,
for the World Of Natures calling and they ought
to be away. There arc many days a-coming
when ! can mend and sweep, but when the
worlds so lovely 1 just cannot indoors keep.
So here's a hand for roaming, for "a1l the
earth's in tune" and my heart with Joy is hum
ming-for it's June, June, June.

That where North Carolina sits is the head
of the table is again given demonstration. Mr..
c. F. Tomlinson, Of High Point, has been unani-
mously elected president Of the T. P. \. Of
America. His selection shows that the J. I. A
in session at Omaha wanted only the best, and
that is the kind which is offered by North Caro-
lima. Progressive, alert, able, President Tom
lfnson can be relied upon to push T. P. A. inter-
ests to the front. Both Mr.. Tomlinson and the
T. P. A. are to be congratulated.

A DIAMOND INDEED.

The recently issued Diamond Anniversary
Number" of the Nashville Christian Advocate
was a diamond indeed, a number most httinely
commemorative Of the long existence of the
magazine, which was in reality celebrating the
eighty-first anniversary of it's origin, being The
1ineal successor Of the Western Methodist begun
in 1884, the Advocate dating it's seventy-fve
years from 1910.
Raleigh, all North Carolina indeed, takes pride
in especial in the Christian Advocate because
it's editor is DR.. Thomas N. Ivey, a North Caro-
linian, for years in the Methodist ministry IN
this State, going from the editorship of the Rail
eigh Christian Advocate to the editorship of The
Nashville Christian Advocate, the correctional
organ of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South.
The Christian Advocate is a great church
magazine, and in all the years OF its history il
has never been better conducted than 1t is now
In it's career it has seen the church grow and
make wondrous advance. It has been a factor
in the work, and it was a pleasure to all the
church, to all the friends of the editor, and #
the Advocate, to send it the best of greetings
on it's Diamond Anniversary Number

WHAT'S 1T WORTH would like
readers of The Day Book to help me
fix a scale of prices for rewards.
Some seven years ago I was walking
east on, 1 believe, Warren avenue
about two blocks west of Robey
street, at about $50 p. m, in the mid
die of December. There was a ter
rife wind and snow and close to zero
weather. There was vacant prop
eTty there on the north side of the
street and wandered over into this
field until I stumbled over fat man
who was down on all fOurs on a small
ice pond. His coat sleeves were frOz-
en- to the icy snow and he looked like
a walrUs spread out. He was drunk
as a lord and laughed with a sleepy,
silly laugh. I said: '"Wen, brother,
what is the matter?" He said: "Are
you brother of mine? am only a
blue lodge man." I replied: eve are
all brothers in this world and belong
to the same human family" He wore
a diamond ring as large as a hickory
nut, which l could have taken. He
was just limp, but I learned by a
card in his pocket where he lived
and struggled until I got him home,
about two blocks away. The servant
let him in the back way. He reused
himself enough to tell me to come to
that saloon across from Lewis Instt'

Submarine Prisoners.

One of the earliest Of Mr.. BalfouY's an
nouncements in the quality of First Lord
Of the Admiralty is that in future German
submarine prisoners will receive the same
treatment as other prisoners of war. This
is a sensible decision; indeed, it is difficult
to account for the former policy except
as a concession to popular clamor.
1t is quite natural that the feeling
against the officers Of submarines ran
high. The commanders of German cruisers
had always shown a decent consideration
for non-combatants, and though their
naval officers generally had not distin-
guished themselves in saving lives, none
Of them had shown such gross cruelty and
wantonness as those concerned in the con-
duct of the submarine warfare against
commerce. Five years ago Germany, In
common with other nations, signed an in
ternational convention on the law of sal
wage imposing a duty on the master Of
every merchant vessel, $50 far as he can
without serious danger to his vessel, her
crew and her passengers, to render as
sistance to every person, even though an
enemy, found at sea in danger of being
lost" Yet there is abundant evidence that
on several occasions German submarines
have deliberately interfered with the work
of rescue after having sunk vessels full
of innocent non-combatants.
1t was diabolical indifference of this
sort that led to demand for special treat
ment in dealing with submarine prisoners.
Yet it was imprudent to make distinc-
ton, because nothing could be easier than
for the Germans to take revenge on Eng
lish prisoners. And this is what they did,
OF course.

First Results of the Seamen's Act.

The disastrous consequences of the La
Toilette seamen's act are already appar-
ent in the announcement made by the d..
rectors Of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company. These consequences were clear
ly foreseen long ago by shipping men, and
will cause no surprise to any one except
possibly to some few ill-advised and mis-
guided friends Of organized labor and to
certain politicians who chose rather 70
follow their leaders blindly than to give
heed to the warnings of the men most
competent to judge of the merits of this
short-sighted and mischievous piece of
legislation.
What is to be the ultimate fate of the
Pacific Mail is still Uncertain. The ships
may be sold or leased or turned to &C
count in some service where the restric-
tons of the seamen's act will be less
deadly. That is a question which con-
Germs the directors and the stockholders
of the company; the point of interest to
the American people is the threatened ex-
i
cific Ocean. The inevitable result Of the
preposterous measure designed ostensibly
in the interest of American labor is 10
deliver over transpacifc trade to Tire
japanese. The provisions of the seamen's
act are such as can only be met by the
subsidized japanese steamship lines, and
in the natural course of events the jap
anese will soon acquire a monopoly of the
trade between our Pacific ports and the
Orient.
At present ships engaged in this trade
are manned largely with Asatic crews,
but the new law provides that no shin
shall be permitted TO depart from any
port of the United States unless she has
on board a crew not less than seventy-five
per centum of which in each department
thereof are able to understand any order
given by the officers of such vessel" Such
crews, II has been pointed out, are simply
unobtainable. Mr.. Schwerin, the general
