Sing sad songs for me
Christina Rossetu.
7 would not have your pain too great
You who have known enough OF palm
Yet if when had passed the gate
could return again
And see you (but myself unseen)
Musing with grief little space.
The shadow of what might have been
Reflected in your face.
Not over-sad, not bowed too much
By sorrow, it would be a sign
OF comfort even in death to such
An exiled soul as mine.
She will not q would say forget,
When time has checked her plying tears
l loved her so, nor quite regret
Those past and futile years.
I would not have the shadow fall
So darkly that you could not see
Beyond the irrevocable wall
Dividing you and me.
would not stay an unquiet ghost,
To stir a useless grief, to keep
From you the peace you need the most
Or vex your troubled sleep.
And yet my heart cries out to know
CAS- if the dead felt any painD
That you will miss me when | go,
Not to return again.

food its OUTPUT Of work will of necessity
be reduced" But clearly the assumption
was that the accustomed supply" was not
excessive, for in the next sentence 1t Is
added chat slight reduction of food be-
low the necessary amount causes large
dimunition in the working efficiency OF the
Individual" The accustomed supply IN
Germany before the war was probably
more than sufficient for the average man.
Some very interesting remarks on the
effect of lowered nutrition on large I'M
selected population in Berlin have lately
been published by Professor Klemperer,
director of one Of the great hospitals
there. His observations have convinced
him that no one need be uneasy merely be-
cause he is thin in these days, loss OF III
or even 90 per cent of peace-tlme weight
being normal under current conditions.
The rations in the hospital Of which he has
charge are greatly reduced, yet even with
considerable diminution in the protein
intake recovery is generally as quick as IN
ordinary times. He speaks well of the war
bread and notes a remarkable decrease In
govt and diabetes, as also in neurasthenia.
On the other hand, tuberculosis seems to
have increased in severity, but this has
been the experience of other nations, too.
Professor Klemperer's expert judgment
NAV serve to correct the excited accounts
we have had from impressionable travel
lers, who perhaps did not realize that be-
fore the war Germans were too much
given to gluttony.

Tell Ii All
From The Chicago Tribune

from The Chtcd0o Irto""e'
In an address before soldiers the other day
the Secretary Of State, after detailing some
of the offences of the German government
which have brought us into the war, con-
cluded: "But there is more, far more. some
day hope the whole tale may be told IL
will be an astounding tale, indeed"
We hope that official precaution will not
postpone that some day unduly. Many official
secrets must wait, of course, but the ex-
pediency of publishing as much as possible In
illustration of the policies and practices OF
our enemy is clearer, perhaps, to US who are
directly in touch with public opinion than to
men immersed in heavy official work. What is
very urgently needed at this time is an intelli-
gent organization of notwithstanding
not only comparable to but surprising that OF
a Presidential campaign.
Instead we have Mr. Crcel and Mr.. Daniels!

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The other day, while reading some OF
Dickens's minor writings, came across the
inclosed allegory which was published IN
Household Words" for February, ls55-when
military affairs in the Crimea were at their
worst for England, the expedition to :he
Baltic had failed. London was full of woful
stories of the sanitary conditions of the army
and the Aberdeen ministry had broken down
and given way to Palmerston. The aIlegory
seemed to me SO like a commentary on the
present state of our affairs that | copied 1t
for you. 1t is interesting reading.

4 Change In Servants

Wher the dismal news Of his great loss
was carried to the prince he suspected his
godmother very much, indeed, but he knew
that his servants must have kept company
with the malicious beldame and must have
given way to her, and therefore he resolved
to turn those servants out of their places.
And so he called to him a roebuck who had
the gift of speech and he said: "Good roe
buck, tell them they must 60" So the good
roebuck delivered his message, so like a man
that you might have supposed him to be
nothing but a man, and they were turned out
but not without warning, for that they had
had for long time.
And now comes the most extraordinary part
of the history of this prince. When he had
turned out those servants, Of course he
wanted others. What was his establishment
to find that in all his dominions, which con-
tanned no less than 100000 of people, there
were not above five and twenty servants alto
gether! They were so lofty about it, too,
that instead of discussing whether they
should hire themselves as servants to Prince
Bull they turned things topsy-turvy, and con-
sidered whether, as a favor, they should hire
Prince Bull to be their master! While they
were arguing this point among themselves
quite at their leisure, the wicked old red
fairy was necessarily going up and down.
knocking at the doors of twelve of the oldest
Of the five and twenty, who were the oldest
inhabitants in all that country. and whose
united ages amounted to one thousand, say
ing: "Will you hire Prince Bull for your
master? will you hire Prince Bull for your
MASTER" To which one answered: 81 will if
next door wll'; and another, 81 won't if over
the way does; and another 81 can't if he,
she or they might, could, would or should"
And all this time Prince Bulls affairs were
going to rack and ruin.

Ships to Nowhere
Now. this was very bad conduct on the part
Of the vicious old nuisance, and she ought 10
have been strangled even If she had stopped
here: but she didn't stop here, as you snail
learn. for a number Of the princes subjects
being very fond of the princes army VINO
were the bravest of men, assembled together
and provided all manner OF eataoIes ana
drinkabes, and books to read, and clothes 70
wear. and tobacco to smoke, and canoles 70
burn, and nailed them up in great packing
cases and put them aboard great many
,hips. to be carried out TO that brave army IN
the cold and Indictment country where they
were fohting Prince Bear. Then up comes
the wicked fairy as the ships were weighing
anchor and says: "How do you do, my chill
dren? What are you doing here?' I'VE are
going with all these comforts to the army,
0odmother" "Oho," says she. "A pleasant

time forth those enchanted ships went sail
ing against wind and tide and rhyme and rea-
son. round and round the world and when-
ever they touched at any port were ordered
off Immediately, and could never deliver their
cargo anywhere.
This, again, was very bad conduct on the
ought to have been strangled for 1t II she
had done nothing worse; but she did some
thing worse still, as you shall learn. For she
got astride of an official broomstick and NUT
tered as a spell these two sentences, ION her
maiesty's service" and 81 have the honor to
be. sir, your most obedient servant" and
presently alighted In the cold and inclement
country where the army Of Prince Bull was
encamped to fight the army Of Prince Bear.
On the seashore of that country she found
piled together a number Of houses for the
army to live in and quantity OF provisions
for the army to live upon and quantity OF
clothes for the army to wear, while sitting in
the mud, gazing at them, were group OF
officers as red to look at as the wicked old
woman herself. SO she said 10 one OF tneH'
"Who are you, my darling, and how do you
do?" ~ am the quartermaster generals de-
partment, godmother, and am pretty WELL
Then she said to another: "Who are yotl my
darling, and how do you do?" 81 am the
commissarat department, godmother, and |
am pretty we'll" Then she said to another:
"Who are you, my darling, and how do you
do?' 81 am the head of the medical depart
ment, godmother and | am pretty well.'
Then she said to some gentlemen scented
with lavender who kept themselves at great
distance from the rest: "And who are yo7t
my pretty pets, and how do you do" And
thew answered. "We-aw-are-the-aw
staff -aw-departmen godmother, and we
are very we'll indeed" az am delighted to
see you all, my beauties" says this wicked
old fairy-"Tape!" Upon that the houses,
clothes and provisions all mouldered away,
and the soldiers who were sound fell sick,
and the soldiers who were sick died miser-
ably, and the noble army Of Prince Bull
persisted.

REGISTRATION FALLS OFF
WHEN BOOTH is MOVED

Since the registration booth has
been removed from the first floor 10
the second floor of the city hall the
number Of registrations has dropped
considerably. according to Harry
Engel. chief clerk OF the registra-
ton. on Thursday, when the booth
was on the lower floor. 107 men and
% women registered On Friday,
after the place had been moved TO
the door OF the council chambers on
the second floor, but 81 men and
nine women registered.
This falling of is directly attrib-
uted 10 the fact that the new loca-
ton is more inaccessible, and those
in charge Of the registering are hop
ing that the booth will be moved to
the house just north Of the city hall.
where the ground floor can be had
without interfering with other de-
partments OF the city's business.

IN
INDIANA TOO SHORT
Prof. Farrell of NOtre Dame
Says State SoIonS Can't
Do Work in 81 Days.

The Indiana legislature should
be made 10 work until it's business
is transacted" declared Prof. Will
liam Farrell Of Notre Dame univers-
ity last night in an address on the
State Constitution" before a meet
ing OF the Civic and Franchise
leagues in the auditorium of the
South Bend Training school. 1T is
in session only 81 days out Of two
years. and can not possibly COM
plete its work in so short a time.
Any important bill, such as prohi-
bition, would consume more than
Is days in the making; three such
bills would take up the entire ses-
sion.
New York's assembly has been
at work since January 1, and hasn't
begun TO adjourn" he continued.
"Indiana's law making is just as i'm
portant. The new constitution
should provide 10 give assemblymen
a straight salary, and TO make them
remain at the statehouse as long as
any business remains 10 be transact
ed"
Prof. Farrell outlined for his
audience the history and provisions
Of the present constitution, explain
ing the need of a new one and the
steps necessary to provide for it,.
He advised that issues of deep inter-
est TO the people. as prohibition or
women's suffrage, should be en-
bodied in the constitution rather
than submitted to legislative action,
TO provide against REPAYMENT by
succeeding assem- blies.
Following Prof. Farrell's address
a social program under the direction
of Mrs. Alma O. Ware, was held.
Several folk songs were rendered by
Mrs. Walter Fassnacht, and Miss
Lillian Martin followed with violin
selections. An amateur orchestra,
conducted by George Fickenscher,
featured the musical program.

stated that most authorities are OF
the opinion that thu var would be a

bear that fact in mind. He also call
ed attention to the fact that while
the government sent men TO the con-
CentratiOn camps clean and strong.
there was no proof that they would
remain so, for the drilling and train
ing occupied the entire time OF the
officers, and the morals of the men
were uncared for.
