SEEN ON THE SIDE
Morning..
BIT HENRY EDWARD WARNER.

Sweet 10 tho breath of tho morning.
Laden with dews from tho rose,
Diamonds tho petals adjoining
OF every fair flower that grows;
Wines in tho air. and tho winElng
or birds through tho vines and tho hedge
And just at my window they're singing.
Tho warblers that perch on the ledge.
Clear is tho sky, for drifting
White sheep DER it's meadows OF blue;
Wondrous the gray dawn that's lifting,
Disclosing each happier hue.
Slowly the carly day coming
Spreads out from tho gray and tho dun,
And lazy the browsing bee, humming.
Is awaiting tho warmth of tho sun.
Then suddenly. silently, lcaping.
The full light OF day floods the skies;
Up. up. NIL ye s!uggards a-sleeping!
Ope. ope all We wonderful eyes!
The glory OF day. 1t is calling!
On mountain and valley and plain
The blessings OF nature falling
And Gods in His heavens again!

WASHINGTON. September ITO
Keep check on the newsprint paper
situation. the Federal Trade Commits
sion will institute a system Of monthly
and weekly reports by manufacturers.
The aim is to keep publishers con-
stantly Informed as to the rate OF pro-
duction and consumption and as to the
amount OF paper stocks on hand.
Tho trade commission hopes that the
system will put newspaper publishers
in position to demand fair prices and
make II impossible for producers TO
raise prices through fear OF paper
shortage. The Canadian government
will be asked to cooperate in the
plan.

Sarah Bernhardt's prediction that the war
will end next May is worth considering, in
view of her acute intellect and her opportuni-
ties for observation. Moreover, she has no
doubt sources of inform ton close TO the top
of military affairs in France. Nevertheless.
though all of US are hopeful, there is no use
in being sanguine. Indeed, we must put
aside all thoughts that might hinder our

The American Secret Service. in the inter
ception Of the Zimmerman note to Mexico
and the discovery of the transmission of Ger
man code messages through the Swedish mill
lister in Buenos Aires, has scored two of the
scleverest achievements in espionage since the
beginning OF the war. The irst served as a
signal tor giving Count Bernstorff his pass
ports, and the Buenos Aires discovery will
result in definitely fixing Swedens position
among the groups of belligerents and neu-
trails. 1t may also result in inducing Argen-
