Politics.

Our politics are getting hot
And nov OH every hnnd
You can SEE the politician
Assembling his band
There are questions now propounded
OF nation alie renOwn
That are argued on the corners
vi every inst class town
Everybody has an idea
Of bow Things snOuld be run
And he ,toesn fail to tell chem
10 every mothers son,
Who will stop upon the corner
70 listen TO his tale
Or how he'll save the country
Many, many pounds OF "Kaie
His opponent is spendthrift
Who ought to be in Jail
And loudly on the corner
Ihls man he Will assa.l
The Issue" is the people
He'll stand tor this or that"
And should he be elected
Your shoulder he will pat
Now Friends don't you be buncoed
by any OF his talk
For If ne Is elected
You Viii have 10 walk the chalk
And after the election
He Will cone around and say
We've "*on' my boy, i've got the lob
All you've got to DO is pay
Just pay the same old taxes
As yuu We always had 10 do
For candidate Is not supposed
10 do what lie promises to. W. L. B

When he stopped to secure the elusive
button he saw "A pile of mileage books
under the piece of furniture and hshed
ont the 81. Although the room had been
occupied every night since June a, the
thiefs booty had not been discovered
Finding So many tickets in such an UNI
usual place aroused the suspicious Of
the guest and he turned them over to
the proprietor. The register shows that
man who REGISTERED as James NJ.

WHY YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU
AS A MEMBER OF THE RED CROSS.

The Red Cross is the one agency for
relief commissioned by the government
in case of war or disaster. Red Cross
nurses and doctors go into the field; but
most important duties rest upon mem-
bers at home.
In time of war the Red Cross must
equip and maintain field and base hos
pitfalls; find for anxious friends sick,
wounded and missing men; transport
them with tender care to their homes,
In time of peace it must be kept ready
for immediate relief in case of disaster.
The necessity for this was shown i'm tho
Galveston flood, the san Francisco fire,
the Titanic wreck, Ohio floods and
eighty other disasters. In all of these,
the Red Cross provided immediate shell
ter food, clothing and care for the sick,
dying ana thousands upon thousands OF
people temporarily dependent-distri-
buting more than sl5,000,O0O In money
and supplies
Your Red Cross should have a million
members. 1t is modifying the nations

THE GOVERNMENT AT WORK.

The scarcity of dye materials in this
country came near having remarkable
effect upon our currency not long ago.
There would have been just as much of
it, but We might have had pink five
dollar bills instead of green ones for
change This startling catastrophe was
averted by prompt action on the part
of Joseph L. Ralph. director of the
bureau Of engraving and printing. He
went to New York and bought all there
was on the market of certain pigments
necessary in the making of stamps and
money. a special shipment of dyes from
Germany was also arranged for.
This bureau produces all of the postage
stamps and all the paper currency used
in the United States. Forty million
stamps are made daily and distributed
to GOoOO postofices, These stamps
would cover eight acres. The amount of
money produced by the bureau is sim
plv staggering There is often enough
of it in sight to buy "A State. II is very

is no reason why we should become panic
stricken about it. People are used to

novel Because of fright parents deny
their children the very fresh air es-
