Men.

Man to man they stood in decades past,
Striving each to gain the others store;
Mind barbaric ruled their lusty limbs,
Ruled, too. their passion. Such OF lust as dims
The light of manhood, ruled them still in war.
Where strength alone survived. Twas
natures cost
Centuries intervene. Yet once again
Those savage instincts rise and trample down
All shrines Of culture, affairs built to learning,
Christian temples. Human beasts are yearn-
ing
For their brothers blood with which to crown
Themselves in glory; to face their God as
men.

by the sending of unnecessary arti-

suit in drastic curtailment OF these
privileges unless people heed the warn

says the department, shows that two

The daylight saving bill, under
which all clocks in the United States
are to be set forward an hour in the
spring and set back again in the fall,
will go into effect Sunday, March 81.
The bill was passed by the Senate last
June, and was passed by the House
Friday with an amendment adding a
month at each end of the period in
volved. Saturday the Senate
adopted the House amendment, and
the bill went to the President. Be-
ginning Monday, April /, the people
of the United States will get up an
hour earlier than now, and go to
work an hour earlier, though the
clocks will lie them into the belief
that they are keeping the same hours
as usual, and after awhile they will
forget it. Then. on Monday, October
Is, there will come a morning when
they can revel in the luxury of an
hour longer in bed, unless they forget
to set the clock back an hour the day
before.
