The Shock

IRON The Nco Statesman
Thinking Of these, of beautiful brief things
OF things that are Of sense and spirit made
OF meadow flowers. dense hedges and dark
bushes
With roses trailing over nests Of thrushes;
OF dews so pure and bright and fush'd and
cool,
And like the flowers as brief as beautiful;
Thinking of the tall grass and daisies tall
And whispered music Of the waving bents;
Thinking OF those high thoughts that passed
like the wind,
Yet left their brightness lying on the mind,
As the white blossoms the raw airs SHAKE
down
That lie awhile yet lovely on the chill
grass;
Thinking of the dark, where all these end
like cloud,
And the stars watch like Knights to Honor
vowed;
OF those too lovely colors of the East,
And the too tender loneliness of gray:
Thinking of all, | was as one that stands
Meath the bewlderng shock of breaking
Mortal-immortal things had lost their
power,
knew no more than sweetness in the
flower;
No more than color in the changing light,
No more than order in the stars of night;
breathing tree was but gaunt wood ard
leaves;
All these had lost their old power over me
had forgotten that ever such things were:
lmmortal-mortal, / had been but blind 9.
o the wild sweetness of the renewing
sense
That swept me and drove all but sweetness
hence!
As beautiful as bref-ah! lovelier,
Being but mortal. Yet | had great fear
That | should die ere these sweet things
were dead
Or live on knowing the wild sweetness
fed JOHN FREEMAN.

After.Care in InfantiLe Paralysis

1t is estimated that Of the children
stricken in the recent outbreak of acute
polionrvelitis about one-tenth recovered
completely; the rest Of the survivors, num-
bering some $500, are all more or less
severely crippled. This was to be ex-
pected. and in order to deal with the prob
lem the Commissioner of Health some time
ago appointed committee composed OF
pediatrists. orthopedc surgeons, neurolo-
gists. hospital superintendent and the
heads of nursing associations, together
with medical council Of twenty-one
physicians.
Hospitals, dispensaries and other agen-
cies TO the number of about fifty have
hitherto been doing what could be done for
these patients, but the burden is heavy
and the resources are limited. The COM
mittee. known as the New York Committee
on After-Care of Infantile Paralysis Cases,
has accordingly resolved to appeal for
funds to meet the needs Of the several
agencies. 1t is estimated that in order to
give proper attention to the large number
of cases that remain the sum required for
the coming year will be S250,000.
The money will be we'll spent, for, little
as we know about poliomyelitis, one truth
is abundantly established, that in large
percentage Of cases the evil results may
be relieved or minimized by skilful ortho-
pedic treatment. Even among children
badly paralyzed the most surprising re
coveries have been effected by patient at
tention, but the restoration Of function is
often long and tedious process, extend
ing over months and sometimes even years.
1t is only under expert direction that the
best results can be hoped for, but the inn
portant thing to remember is that in many
cases, seemingly hopeless, the paralysis has
disappeared in time. There is every rea-
son therefore for encouraging the endeav-
ors Of the After-Care Committee, and the
sum demanded seems small when it is con-
sidered how many may be saved from per-
manent helplessness.

It's admission 70 the Union wa. not rccog-
nized 10 Washington until March Q, 1921
Some states are more given 70 celebrations
Of their birth than others The centennial
Of the adoption Of the Federal Constitution
was duly observed. but The thirteen original
states did not celebrate separately their rati.
fcation Of the Constitution. which brought
them into Federal Union, Kentucky, Yer.
mont, Tennessee, Ohio and Louisiana have
already passed the one hundredth anniyer-
sary Of their admission 10 the Union and
Indiana completes her one hundred years of
statehood next month.
Missouri preempts 1920 for her celebration
and Maine is one hundred years old the same
year. Mississippi, Illinois and Alabama will
each be one hundred years old before Mis-
sour. Illinois, at least. may be counted upon
not 20 let her centennial year pass without
due celebration.

Hands and Feet

An English scientist, +. Wood Jones,
has made an interesting contribution to
the study of evolution in his "Arboreal
Man" According to his theory our earliest
ancestors never went on all fours on the
surface of the earth. They learned to
stand and to move upright in the trees
which were their earliest abode. The hu-
man child sits up before it can stand; the
human stock sat up in the trees before
il stood.
Then, standing up, arboreal man began
to move about from limb TO limb, from
tree to tree; arboreal walking, which en-
Outraged, and, in fact, necessitated, the
development of the hands for grasping
hanging on, reaching forward, swinging.
And, having thus developed his hands, our
earliest ancestor discovered, further, that
he could pick the fruit and nuts and ten
der shoots that were his food far more
conveniently with those hands than he
could with his lips and teeth Therefore
through dsuse, his protruding, prehensie
lips, his gripping teeth receded, his prog
nathous jaw became orthognathous, the
cranial part of the skull expanded, the
eyes passed TO the front and he began to
lay the foundations Of nose.
But where the hands learned to render
so many new services-including the car
rying Of offspring-the hind limbs were
called upon for an increasing work Of
grasping, holding, balancing and progress
ing, with the result that arboreal man
found himself In the course Of time the
possessor Of four fully developed hands.
Now, four feet do not lead far in the
struggle for mammalian supremacy, but
four hands DO not lead a great deal far
Their. Having learned to stand and move
upright in the trees, having adapted his
physique-his spine, his hips, his fat
chest, his internal organs--to that posi-
ton, our earliest ancestor, descending to
earth, found his second pair of hands not
only useless but an impediment to prog
ress He must change them into feet.
There is more. Arboreal life did not
favor large families. The offspring must
be carried in the arms of its parents, and
wen where il early accommodated itself

Come with me to the sullcn field
That by the somhre river lies,
And let us see the windy eyes
or the hungry dawn unsealed.
Let us see the bonny trees
Shod in darkness to the knees
That with their million fingers grope
For the sky as for rope.
Come and feel the darkness bled,
Faint and pass unknowingly,
See the far hills lift their head
And the serried clouds get free,
And the wanton unconhned,
Fearless. leaping. hcadstrong, blind

And shout the funeral ode of death;

Republican

From The NeW Age
No iewelled crowns their brows engrth
Who hold our lives in fee,
Who take their toll from fruits Of earth,
Their blackmail from the sea.
No scarlet coated sentries pace
Before their palace doors.
No chamberlain with gilded mace
Glides DER their waxen floors.
But in the noisy mart and bourse
Famine and want are born;
There glutted men with fraud and force
Corner Gods gift, the corn.
Richer than potentates of old,
Yet richer they would grow,
While bright with hordes Of Stolen gold,
Their Golfers overflow.
Children go clemmed and cold to bed
That dogs may have their fill;
And the hard price Of virtues bread
Decks many "A wantons frill
Sultans of sugar, Cars Of wheat,
Monarchs of coal and cheese
These tread mankind beneath their feet,
These be our tyrants-these.
