Jirnmy's Haircut

Jimmy's had a haircut!
How the folks all stare!
It's so short you see his skin
Showing through his hair.
'Twasn't what he had before.
Cut all round bowl;
1t was in that barber store
By the candy pole.
Jimmy's had haircut!
We were there to see,
Looking through the window pane
All the boys with me.
He was worried there alone,
Trying hard to grin,
On kind of great big throne,
Wrapped up to his chin.
Jimmy's had a haircut!
Course it scared him some;
All those shears and cups and things
Sort of struck him dumb.
Jimmy's mother saved curl
She feels bad, | know,
That he wasn't born a girl,
And could let them grow.
Jimmy's had haircut
My! it made him proud!
Walking out. while all of us
Followed in the crowd.
He got pretty rich that day,
Fore he went to bed;
He made every fellow pay
ust to smell his head Selected.

Seeking For Happiness
By Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

Seeking for happiness, we must 60 slowly;
The road leads not down avenues of haste,
But often gently winds through byways
lowly,
Whose hidden pleasure are serene and
chaSte.
Seeking for happiness, we must take heed
Of simple Joys that are not found in speed.
Eager for noontime's large, effulgent splen-
dor,
Too oft we miss the beauty of the dawn,
Which tiptoes by us, evanescent, tender,
Its pure delights unrecognzed till gone.
Seeking for happiness, we need must care
For all the little things that make life fair.
Dreaming of the future pleasures and
achievements,
We must not let today strive at our door,
Or wait till after losses and bereavements
Before we count the riches in our store.
Seeking for happiness, we must prize this:
Not what will be, or was, but that which is
In simple pathways hand in hand with duty,
With faith and love, too, ever at her side,
My happiness be met in all her beauty.
The while we search for her both far and
wide.
Seeking fol- happiness, we find the way
Doing the things we ought to do each day.

From Here And There
Lies CruCible

Liz y VI OOlOlS
The rarest minerals of the earth,
The jewels that graced the bust
Of Cleo, queen of royal birth,
Were found within the dust.
The pearl whose matches lustre vies
With tears of saints now dead,
Was once grain of sand despised
Upon the oceans bed.
And so with men; they reach the seat
Of every last desire,
Who rise from out the dust, defeat;
Up thru the purging fire.
They gain the hope the heart has set
Both honor and name,
Who climb above the slime, regret;
From rotting she'll to fame.
No human is too low to soar,
No king too high to fall;
Bejeweled as is the dreaming hour
Lies crucible holds all.-Selected.

HEROIC MEASURES
 TO ENFORCE PEACE
Arbitrators Would Use Compul-
 sion to Do Away With War

Mohonk Lake, N. Y., May 18-The use of military compulsion by a group or nations to prevent war which is the most radical feature of the plan advo- cated by the league to enforce peace, was debated today before the Lake Mohonk conference on international arbitration. The proposition was fa- Vored by Herbert $. Houston and Dr George Haven Putnam of New York. and opposed by Dr. James l.. Tryon or Boston, director of the New Eng
 land department of the American
 Peace society, and Alpheus H. Snow of
 Washington, D. c.
 Peace between nations' said MT. Houston, just as does peace within
 nations, must rest on force. Pence must be put on a war footing, and it's advocates must quit the forum for the field, if need be, to fight, not to urge war but to establish peace"
 The international tribunal at The Hague,' Dr. Putnam said, had the weakness of presenting no provision for the enforcement of the decisions Of the tribunal. We hOll that at the outbreak of the war the United States ought to have placed itself at the heao of a league of neutral nations with the aVoWed purpose of doing what might be- practicable to maintain the prin- clples and precedents of ne'ltrals, and to prevent these from being under mined through the pressure of the re- qulrements, real or assumed of the com batantS"
 Dr. Tyron's view was that the United States might wisely Cooperate, if need be, with other nations to use force for the preservation of public safety in specific emergency like the Boxer rebellion as it arises, but be ir a position to withdraw when it con- sldered the purpose sufficiently full filled, without taking the obligations or an alliance with all it's possible en- tanglements
 An arrangement for international police" he declared, Tor any kind of plan for an international force other than for temporary purposes, presents very grave difficulties, ard in one sense a dilemma. Without world fed eration it looks impracticable and world federation at the present time is impossi ble.'
 MT. SnoW's conclusion was that the plan of the league to enforce peace was impracticable and dangerous, chiefly because it proposes to use joint instead of united force and pro- vides no executive to determine and direct the force
 Both MT. Snow and Dr. Tyron ad- vocated working toward a more stable international order through the de- velopment of The Hague conference idea.

and convincing work Astounding in
strong dramatic climaxes, growing out
of the clash of human passions.

ther, Marietta played by Louise Rial.
Luigi is in love with Rosa (Theda

sionate Italian soil. Comes to the
village Pietro warner Oland), a dap

tive village to dazzle the eyes of the

to fOrsake the provincial Luigi and,
with Pietro as her companion, taste
the glories Of the new country be-
yOnd the sea.
The scene shifts to New York's
seething colony, known as Little It.

donna of Mt Carmel, the most sacred
feast day Of the Italian colony. On
the breast and cloak of the Madonna,
there flash in the brilliant sunlight
the consecrated jewels. AS the bril-
liant radiance of the gems finds its
reflection in ROsa's midnight eyes, a
gangster who is bitterly jealous OF
/ Pietro, whispers to the luxuriantly
beautiful young girl.
"My love for you consumes me like
living fire. For you l would even
steal the sacred jewels from the Ma
donnas consecrated breast"
She whispers back
ITO such a man and such a man
only, would l give myself Yes, down
to my inmost soul"
Luigi, lurking near, overhears hel
words. With a quick leap of The
pulse, he realizes that the gate tC
Rosas love is open to him. THAI
night he visits the church of the Ma
donna. When he energies he clutch
es to his breast the consecrated jew
els.
Suddenly the night is split by 4

the heavy booming of the bell of the
Chapel of the Madonna The robbery

With a wild cry, rung from the
depths of her soul, Rosa rushes into
the streets From this point on, "Sin'
