MOVING DAY

Moving day in Richmond even in nor
NAL times, brings much additional work to
the telephone forces in all departments. Or
ders must be made out and checked, new
wires must be run, numbers must be chang
ed, changes must be indicated on the switch
board, new information must be prepared
for records-all this must be done in a
few days.
Last year from August 26 to September
8, 1887 orders were handled 05 per cent
of them in connection with the moving of
telephones; 238 orders were handled on Sept
ember /; 1906 entries of changes in names
and address made in the information
records; l7,776 special markings on the
switchboard were required.
This year, owing to the exceptional pres
sure under which we working and the
scarcity of labor and materials, our problem
will be greater than ever before. Some of
the removals will necessarily be DELAYED
Should yours be among them, we ask your
consideration. We shall be working at top
speed, much overtime work will be done,
and we shall get around to you as quickly as
the situation permits In the meantime,
please remember problem, and be patient.

REUNION FORETOLD

When Gilbert X. Chesterton, the
English writer, was younger by
dozen years than he is now he had
a dream of reunion OF England and
America. This dream he embodied
in a poem he called THE Anglo-Saxon
Alliance" Chesterton despaired of
his dream later, but that he prophe-
sled better than he knew is pointed
out by Edwin L. Slosson, literary ed
itor of the Independent, in six Ma
ior Prophets" published by Little.
Brown & Company, as a companion
book to Mr. Slosson's Major Proph-
cts OF Today" Mr.. Slosson quotes
this much of the poem:
This Is the weird of a world old folk.
That not till the last link breaks,
Not till the night is blacklist,
The blood of Hengist wakes,
When the sun is black in heaven,
The moon as blood above,
And the earth is full of hatred
This people tells its love.
In chorus, eclipse and peril,
Under the whole worlds scorn,
BY blood and death and darkness
The Saxon peace is sworn;
That all our fruits be gathered,
And all our race take hands,
And the sea be a Saxon river
That runs through Saxon lands.
Deep grows the hate of kindred;
Its roots take hold in hell;
No peace or praise can heal it,
But a stranger heals it well.
Seas shall he red as sunsets,
And the kings bones float on foam,
And heaven he darh with vultures,
The night our son comes home.
Few persons foresaw in 1905 wher
this poem was written that the Seas
shall be red as sunsets and that the
two great Saxon nations should broth
ers be in the worlds supreme clasf
of arms. And. as Mr.. Slossons points
out. Chesterton lost faith and repu
dated his prophecy in these words
81 have come to see that our hope;
of brotherhood with America are tn,
same in kind as our hopes Of broth
erhood with any other of the grea
independent nations of Christendom.
MIR Slosson's six Major Prophets,
in addition to Chesterton, are Bernar,
Shaw. H. G. Wells. F. c. s. Schiller
John Dewey and Rudolph Eucken.
Bisbee daily review. [volume] (Bisbee, Ariz.) 1901-1971, 1917-09-23

Just a couple of quiet, rather GOOD
looking young fellows, they are, typi'
cal perhaps of the best in Young
America. They haven't been in the
department very long and some or
their fellow workers haven't been
quite sure in their estimates of them.
But the Old Sage of the department,
the chap whose judgment of each new
come has always been alike unspar-
ing and unfailing, rendered his opin-
ion soon after they came.
They're boys with lot of stuff, "
he said.
The verdict of the Old Sage was cor
rect. The two young fellows have
proved beyond any doubt or refutation
that they are boys with a lot of
stuff" For the both OF them joined
Uncle Sans aviation corps. Very
quietly, without any swagger or boast
ing they went down and took their
examinations for entrance into the
suicide squad" Safe for the present
from the draft, they disdained TO take
advantage of the chance to enjoy the
comforts of civilian life. And with
equal disdain they refused 10 pick out
d soft snap in the army or navy, such
as their education might enable them
to obtain.
They have chosen instead the Great
Adventure. Pioneers they are, the
blood brothers OF they OF whom Kip
ling wrote:
Came the whisper, came the vision,
came the power with the need,
Till the soul that is not mans soul
was lent to us to lead.
1t seems queer, hard 20 believe, that
it is the quiet, earnest young chaps
like these who are to be the heroes
of the tomorrow that is now so near
Yet from among the like of these are
to come the Thaws, the Lufburys, the
Norman Halls of the red summer OF
1918.
They know that the odds against
them are big; that death in new and
strange and awful forms will claim
many of their kind But unafraid, de
precating both praise and sympathy,
they are going forth into the Great
Adventure. Men who write of the
deeds of the tomorrow will crown
their names with epic phrases, but to-
day they are still the quiet, unassum-
| ing young fellows with whom we have
associated in shop and office. Only
now, for the first time, we know them
for what they are-'boys with lot
of stuff"
