committee from further considera-
ton of the case.
Senate conferees prepared today
to surrender their demands for fed
eral reserve provision in the army
bill. They will try for concessions
from the house for larger and more
numerous summer volunteer training
camps.
II Senator Kenyon, Of Iowa, is
physically able. he will continue
speaking on the rivers and harbors

of the longest speeches in senate
records. BY recessing instead OF
adjourning last night, friends of the
measure compelled him to take the

hold 1t until 6 p, m, as he did yes
terday. BY Monday, other senators
will be prepared to begin speaking.

The sky was blue, and crimson glow
ed the forest,
The golden rod a flaming flower
burned,
The harvest from the fields was we'll
nigh garnered.
When home the weary prodigal re-
turned.
And all the love that had for years
been holden
Went out to greet the careless, way
ward boy;
Forgiveness and a feast were spread
before him,
The wine OF welcome filed the cup
of Joy
They kissed the prodigal, their way
ward boy.
The winter sky was dark, and clouds
of ashen
Went hurrying through the cold and
otOA hA6atB
When past the nov drifts deep and
chilly barrier
The hayward girl returned in direst
plight.
And from her wan and haggard face
they turned them,
And closed the homestead door upon
her shame;
To piercing wind they left her lone
to cover,
Beneath the leaden sky to pear the
blame
They spurned the hayward girl with
cries of "Shamet"
