THE PARTY

The house is bright with lights and lights
Like palace in the Arabian Nights,
Lights in festoons and lights in clusters,
In chandeliers and crystal lustres;
And all the length of the stairs broad way
Tapestries green and pink and gray
Tell a story of ladies' bowers
Hung with apples and paved with flowers;
And beyond an open arch discloses
An inner garden of palms and roses,
With lines of lilies against the walls,
And a fountain that falls and waits and falls,
And from the ballroom comes the beat
Of dance music and dancing feet,
And through the doorways of gold and glass
Figures of dancers pass and pass,
Lovely creatures in dripping laces,
And all have sad, unhopeful faces.
One person only yields to joy,
And he is footman--a round-taced BOY
Stiff in q livery of black and green,
And he laughs at something heard or seen'
Laughs with loud and lonely gladness'
Laughs perhaps at the dancers sadness;
He only seemed for an instant gay,
And he was instantly sent away.

RESULTS OF WAR;

RESULTS OF WAR.-If the war
goes on Until either of the belliger-
ents become vanquished, God only
knows. when that will be, or the out
come.
Countries have warred on different
occasions until one was defeated, yet
the same was repeated with greater
ferocity.
The rulers don't care how many
structures are destroyed, or how
many lives are lost, or how many
poor folks suffer, just so their whims
and .cankerOUs greed becomes what
they deem justified.
War never frees men and women,
but enslaves them and causes many
to be more dependent than before.
No nation can prepare so efficiently
but what others can prepare equally
as we'll, if not better. Advocating
peace is more apt to bring peace than
advocating war. Jealousy, religious
hatred and greed have ruined the
world.
More than one worthy arpirant has
gone down through fear Of being per-
secuted by prejudiced buldozers,

Did you notice the Tribune's OIL
factory editorial, our Mexican chill
dren and how they suffer from mall
nutrition?
Is it not strange that the Tribune
editor cannot smell mal-street car
service and maI-telephone service in
Chicago? All the membranes of his
smelling apparatus are dead on those
questions. He says that long dis
tance believing is safe qualification
for belligerent impulses.
Mr.. Cochran, do you think that if
the editor Of the Tribune was in Mex
leo, the Philippines or Europe, he
would be able to smell the wrongs
committed on the straphangers and

GERMAN PEACE NoTE.-Does
the German note to the U. S. mean
peace? Yes and no.
The subtitle brain at Berlin behind
that master stroke of diplomacy to
my mind had a more far-reachfng
motive. Germany wishes to show
the world of neutral nations" and
especially the u S., that the U. S.
has been selling war supplies to Eng
land, France, Russia, Italy and the
entente, and by thus arousing our
people to full realization of the
trade in war supplies gain the good
will and sympathy Of the U. S.
When that has become an estab-
lished fact Germany can then start
the most destructive submarine war
the world ever heard of with good
grace.
First she would attack British war
ships. A batdeship costs S6,OOO,OO
and a first class submarine costs
$SO0;9O0. A little submarine sticks
his nose out of the water, bang! A
big battleship goes to the bottom of
the ocean. Submarine sinks and goes
several miles away and then sinks
another battleship. In the under
the-sea game William has got George
beaten.
Do you think Germany wants
peace? Yes, do, but only on Ger
many's terms. At present all Ger-

OLD o R BIRTHDAY

Another year of age is on the banner of
the free,
The starry flag that proudly floats on land
and on the sea.
But touch of time has dimmed no star
within that azure field,
And still its white and crimson stripes in
glory stand revealed.
Though Haunted high amid the storms
when wind and oceans roar,
Though carried through the shot and shell
of battle on the shore,
IT'S just as bright as when 1t passed
through it's baptismal fires
In days of old when borne by Revolution
airy sires.
Yea. brighter is that glorious flag and
prouder is its sHell,
For it is famed aroun the world wher-
ever men may dwell.
From polar ice to tropic isle In triumph 1t
has gone
And from its stars all those oppressed
have inspiration drawn.
Amid the mighty nations flags 1t holds
an honored place,
For on its folds has never been the shadow
of disgrace.
And well it's known where'er that flag
upon its mission goes
That 1t is true to all its friends, a terror
to all foes.
Long may it wave and long its stars and
stripes in glory shine,
For where 1t floats there men e'er find a
patriotic shrine.
It stands for strength and sympathy, II
stands for truth and right,
And where it goes the eyes of men see
Freedoms sacred light.

icle-Telegraph.

WASTE DESCRIBED AS
GREAT AMERICAN Thief
Another Nation Our Size Could
Exist Six Years on Our
Waste In Ten.

By HAPSBURG LIEBE of the Vigilantes.
1t was away back five years in the
dusty past, when l was a perfectly
good filter of big log saws instead of
a writer of Indifferent power, that l
had my first real introduction to this
Brobdignagian. l had just left the
sawmill, in company with the sawyer
when l noticed an ordinarily but neat
ly dressed old man picking up kindling
that had fallen from a passing wagon,
We soon overlook him. l was sorry
for him.
"Old man. said 1, IF you'll come
around to the mill tomorrow I'll give
you all the kindling you can carry Off"
He laughed rather amusedly. Son."
he replied, I'm just picking this up to
keep it from going to waste. Waste Is
the great American thief"
We passed him by. The sawyer
nudged me and whispered: That's cid
So-and-so. He's worth a hundred thou
sand, and he's not accounted a stingy
man."
! got the lesson. I've since worked 1t
out very thoroughly-so very thorough
~, In fact. that l am able to tell you,
which Is apt to surprise you, that an
other nation the size of ours could have
lived six years on that which we have
wasted during the last ten years. And,
which is of even greater Importance,
both this and the other nation would
have been a better and stronger and
more efficient nation because of it.
Get that, Waste is beyond any doubt
the great American thief, just as that
philosophic old man told me.
1t is in our eating that we are most
im%moderate, most Incorporate, most
wasteful. We are, In the main, a ma
ton of meat eaters and boilers and
overeaters. We think that we save
time when we bolt our food, but we
don't; we lose time, because by SO do
ing we impair health and shorten life
to an extent that would be alarming to
US If we could only realize 1t. The
eating of much meat may be all right
for a digger OF bitches, but it certainly
Is unwise for those who expect to do
any amount of clear thinking. Over
eating is good for nobody. for so many
reasons that | cannot attempt to set
them down here. Let me break the
news to you that Germany, as a ma
ton. can put it all over us when 1t
comes to efficient eating. And Ger
many's efficient eating is one of the
greatest factors in the success with
which she has fought and is still fight.
ing the best forces of the civilized
world.
If you are a meat eater try cutting
out at least half your meats and sub,
stituting fruits and cereals and prop.
erly cooked eggs. 1t will surprise you
when you note how much your brain
and skin has cleared.
If you are a bolter try taking at least
half an hour for each meal, try leav.
ing business behind for the time being
try thinking of light and pleasant
things while you are eating-and note
the difference.
If you are an overeater cut out a
third Of your usual meal and see how
much sluggishness of body and mind
you'll be able to throw off.
If you are a combination of all three
it's a wonder you are alive.

DIDN'T KNOW MALVERN
 HAD AN OPTICIAN

A lady visited the Optical office of Dr. T. A. Mckee, one day last week, and stated that she was not aware that Malvern had an optician, until she read his ad in the Daily Record. She was born and reared here and has lived here all her life, and Dr. Mckee has been in business here for six vars, yet it took an ad in this paper to let her know this fact. Dr. sold her the glasses.
 The moral to this story is: Advertise your business in the Daily Record, and like Dr. Me Kee and hundreds of others who have tried it, YOU WILL GET RESULTS.
