SEEK SAFE HAVEN ON FARMS
Some Rich Men Are Said to BE Paying
Landowners to employ" Their
Sons to Escape Draft.

Government agents have been at
work in Queens investigating the cases
of several farmers in the Newtown,
Flushing and Great Neck sections who
are reported to have accepted money
to keep sons of wealthy men on their
payrolls 80 as to escape the draft, says
the New York Herald. The agents
have obtained the names Of young men
who registered as farmers but who, 1t
is said, have not been filling the soil.
Government officials have been told
that farmers have been well paid by
wealthy parents to employ the
youths. According to reports that have
been openly discussed in these Sec
tons at least a dozen farmers have
men on their payrOlls who do not
know a grubhook from a cultivator.
These men, according to the story, are
supposed to report daily to the farm
ers and to receive wages Of Sc week.
Instead Of working on the farm the
young men are devOting their time to
playing golf or driving about the island

On the Editor,

A magazine editor of New York
prides himself on his knowledge Of
poetry and on his delicate critical
sense of the same. His friends often
Joke him about this.
A noted illustrator laid on the edi-
tors desk the other day a couplet that
RANT
"Help us save free conscience from
the paw
OF hireling wolves whose gospel is
their maw."
The editor read the couplet, then
laughed heartily.
did you write this?" he said. "By
George, it sounds like you. Better stick
to the pencil, boy. Look at that rhyme
paw and NAV. Why, it sounds like
the S. o. S. call of kids in distress.
Paw and mawl Geewillikins"
"I didn't write It," said the illustra-
tor.
ooh, you didn't Ell? Who did,
then?"
"a duffer named Milton" said the
Illustrator. "John Milton. Ever hear
of him? He was the author of little
thing called Paradise Lost believe,
but these lines are cut out Of a sonnet
written to Cromwell in 1862. I"
But the editor had tainted dead
away.
