APRIL WEATHER
Birds the bough before the buds
Begin to burst in the spring.
Bending their heads to the April floods
Too much out of breath to singi
They chirp. Hey day How the rain
comes down.
Comrades cuddle together.
Cling to the bark as rough and brown,
For this is April weather
"oh, the warm, beautiful. drenching rain
l don't mind 1t, do you?
Soon will the sky be clear again.
Smiling and fresh and blue.
Sweet and sparkling is every drop
That slides from the soft. gray clouds;
Blossoms will blush to tie very top
OF the bare old trees IN crowds.
"Ob. the warm. delicious. hopeful raini
Let US be glad together,
Summer comes flying in beauty again,
Thru the fitful April weather.

If the mayor and the other four
commissioners, all of whom have made
a creditable showing and each of
whom has accomplished something to
the credit and for the welfare of the
city, should not be reelected, it is
certainly discouraging for any ener-
getic, able man in the city to under
take to give his services to Topeka in
the capacity of mayor or other COM
missioner.
If it is no credit to accomplish
something, or such accomplishments
are not appreciated, what is the in

to undertake to give service to the

Tennis TOURNAMENT TO

Patriotic Event in Place Of Middle
Atlantic Affair Opens Mon
day, May 2s.

The patriotic tournament to be held in
lieu Of the regular middle Atlantic ten
ais championship starts week from to-
morrow on the courts of the Columbia
Country Club. 1t is not likely that the
out-o town entry list will be large. as
no wins on challenge cups Will be
awarded and no prizes of any nature
will be given. A special effort, how
ever, is being made to secure as large
a local entry as possible. and it is ex-
pected that in the neighborhood of 125
players will take the courts for play at
pm. Monday. May %. The entry fee,
which is So. from such a field as Co
lumbia Club officials estimate will
gather will swell the war chest OF the
Red Cross by considerable amount.
George Lewis, a prominent player OF
the Dumbarton Club. and James Hop
kins of the Chevy Chase Club are both
at the officers reserve camp at Fort
Myer and will not be able to play. ].
Ballard Moore, former District cham
pion, is not playing competitive tennis
this year. It is probable that Connie
Doyle will reconsider HIS decision not
to enter any of the local events this
year and play in the middle Atlantic
event. as there will be no national IL
tie tournament. The list of events in
cludes the sectional doubles, the win
ners of which are not to play in the
preliminary rounds to the national
championship Of the United States; the
mems singles. women's singles and
mixed doubles.
Court privileges at the Columbia
Country Club will be extended to all
who intend to participate in the tour
nament for the week which starts to-
