SEEN ON THE SIDE
The NncmtiOner.

Once every year fellow takes vacation
Two weeks soto rest his brain and brawn;
He figures that he needs the recreation,
And saves the price to go and get st on!
Approach the hour-hc shakes the dust Of toiling
And grabs his grips and hustles to the train:
For fourteen days thereafter he is broling !
In. country heat, or blisterins the main.
The place he takes himself is full of others
who also have the recreation bunch:
Life's fathers unclcs mothers. sisters. brothers
All seeking the indclinable punch"
Like them, he tumbes into summer clothing
And does the things they all do. with a zest-
And for the noncc, for toil~hc has a loathing
That's only cqualed by his thirst for rest
He fishes, bats the ball and tackles tennis
Goes boating or i'll noun aims climbs the heights:
lie eats three times Il day. and dares the mena &c
OF indigestion's mad nocturnal flights flor
Then having done each day the things prescribed
Nacationers. begins to count the days
And wonders what with these he ever tribed for
And weary grows of all their foolish ways
Once every year fellow takes vacation
He knows why he does it, but he does:
He leaves his work and hunts for recreation
The mountain air, the sea, the motors buzz
Returns to toll with blessings on the day:
Nacation's his--he cannot do without it
Yet wonders why lie went away.

dignity and unhnching devotion.
AS To the sneer at rhetorical embellsh-
ment. il is sufficient TO call attention to re-
cent comment ny leading British journals on
the simple, clear and lawless English in
which the Presidents communications in
variably are couchcd and to the fact that
the English far from tolerant of "rhetori-
cal establishment" But the Suns airy dis
missal OF the Presidents conception of this
countrys duty as merely "poetical" and as
too vague for practical application" points
directly the issue between him and his
opponents
In sense. humanity is an intangible con-
cept, as the sun says, but it is not true that
its obligations are underlined. On the con-
,rary. they are clearly outlined in the minds
OF men whose conscences have not been
dullod by ambition. or by the desire for
wealth, or by any OF the other weaknesses
which themselves weaken the claims of
humanity. And these obligations have
guided the President throughout his term.
So far as the internal affairs OF the coun-
Try have been concerned, he can hardly be
accused OF having dealt with the currency
question. the tarin revision, or any of the
commercial side OF domestic administration,
with anything akin 10 'poetical' lack of
sound comprehension and wise provision. In
his treatment of these questions he has kept
the house in order and managed its at
fairs Justly and wisely"
But the Suns gbe was directed AT his
policy with regard 10 other nations, and in
this his Underlined obligation TO the in
tangible concept called humanity has gov
erned him. In the midst of the greatest war
in history. ne has kept this country al peace;
ne has maintained its honor and dignity and
has compelled for il the respect OF the world
And he has managed to do this, not only by
complying with The obligations of humanity

SEATTLE MARKET LETTER

OF the run of fifteen loads of hogs
ON the market Monday, one load
brought 1925, and all good hogs $9.15
with fair hogs at $500 to 500
Prices are about steady today and the
outlook is for continuation of these
conditions. Hogs are coming in pretty
steady at present but the demand re-
mains good, Several cars of mixed
stuff promised for tomorrow's market
mostly hogs, and we expect an aver.
age of five cars of hogs per day the
balance of the week, but could handle
twice that amount at good prices
Only thirty-one cattle on the mar.
ket yesterday, mixed stuff, of which
nine fair two-year-old steers brought
$845. A load Of good steers from
Pendleton, Ore, in today, was sold
straight up at $S.75. They averaged
1888 lbs. Receipts of cattle are I'm.
certain with good demand. Three
loads of California grass cattle in
last week under contract, but grass
stuff will be scarce for a month vet
Sheep receipts are light, only few
coming In mixed carloads. The range
is very late this season, which ae
counts for no range stuff arriving and
sheepmen predict that it will be at
least a month before grass sheep will
be on the market in any quantity, and
until that time prices will remain high
as practically all the feedlOt stuff is
consumed.
