THE HAMMERS OF THE CLYDE.

On lovely Scotland's quiet streams
I sailed in olden days Of joy;
built fairy house Of dreams
When but boy.
Q lost white days Of shining peace!
happy time sadly gone
The voice OF Memory will not cease.
Though dogs of War rush madly
/ think of hours that used to glide
Like silver on the river Clyde
And nova thunder greets my ears
When in the bright September day
l wander with my doubts and fears
Where the Clyde's waters laugh and play;
A thunder that is strangely sweet.
A sound that stirs my troubled mind,
Voices that sing and then repeat
great anthem for mankind.
I'VE Great Britain's conquest" with pride
Roar the glad hammers Of the Clyde.
I'VE are her soul made vocal now
We build new dream for the old;
Louder and louder, bark.
To speak until Wars tale is told
We shall not fail; shall not
Until proud ships are on the sea.
And again the old soft peace
In golden days that be-
We speak, and cannot be dened!'
Shout the wild hammers OF the Clyde.
And they pound their glorious song.
And they sing the long day through,
And Right shall triumph over Wrong
And the wise dream at last true.
No sweeter music have heard
By any rushing flashing stream;
flushed is the light song the bird
For this enduring iron theme.
Let not the Hun our strength deridei"
Shout the loud hammers OF the Clyde
brave blest voice! sounding note,
Like brave challenge you float;
On the four winds Your song is whired
And who doubt that you shall

Until the world is rocked to rest

SIDE TALKS
The Peace of Mind" Margin
RY HIUU OAA1ERON

Some friends of mine who have been coming up in the world so far aa income. goes were considering the step which folks who come up ill the world nowadays are pretty sure to take.
 Think how much more we should enjoy the bridge club if we didn't have the long trolley ride in front of us,'' urged the husband.
 "I know that" admitted the wife
 And think how much oftener we could go out to see your folks if we had one," went on the artful tompter.
 "I known that, too'', said his wife Surely if the Aldrichs can afford an auto, we can," he persisted She Wants to Enjoy Breaking Her
 Glasses
 We could", said the wife, If we were willing to do as they do. But that's just what I don't want to do l want to be able to enjoy breaking my glasses
 Her husband laughed. Yes. he said, T suppose there is som ething in that"
 And then they explained.
 bIedhluS her glasses was a sym bOl, of the innumerable uneXpected little expenses that make life a misery for you if you are living on an income that just covers your nor nal routine running expenses. Any Unexpected Demand Was a
 Tragedy.
 In the days when their income was divided up, so much for rent, so much for food so much for clothes. so much for spending money, etc., if she broke her glasses Cor any similar unexpected demand came up) it was tragedy.
 NoW' she said If I break my glasses, of course Pm sorry and yet in another way I enjoy it. I can send them to be fixed without won wering where the money is coming from to pay that bill. And it's such a perfectly blessed relief that I feel positively happy. Now if we should get machine at just this stage it would simply mean that that sur plus would be swalled up. And I couldn't break my glasses any more" Can you afford 10 break your glasses, reader friend
 And Such People Have My Deepest Sympathy. Of course there are thousands of homes where the income is so small

MOLLY ENTANGLED'
 LYCEUM OFFERING

For the latter half of the week the
 picture on the Lyceum program will
 be, Molly Entangled' starring your dainty faVoritc Vivian Martin. This
 picture is a charming Irish produc-
 tion and the old fiddler is there and
 the dancers, old and young, colleen and smithy, Vivian Martin herself makes such a wee, Winsome colleen that it is hard to understand why she was not cast in an Irish role long ago. As gay Molly Shawn, she is married to the wrong man who re- fuses to expire at the appointed time, all the while loving big Irish Barney such is the fate of Vivian Martin in her ncfeSt pictur, it sOunde, a bit gruesome. In realty it is not how
 ever, only appealingly funny and quaint and lovable as only Vivian Mar tin could lHvc made a situatiin ot that sort. This phOtopIay seemc of have caught the very spirit of Ire tiVating person of the small star, to whom the part is eminently suited

Do Mothers Err?

When we hear of so many school girls and girls in stores and offices who are often totally unfit to perform Arrangement peculiar to their sex, might this not have been prevented by the mother who, perhaps through neglect or carelessness, failed to get for that daughter the one great root and herb remedy for such ailmentst Lylia F..

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

Baked beans will be more digest 1ble if teaspoonful of ginger Is put into them.
 Add few chopped tomatoes to the scrambled eggs. The flavor will be very good.
 When you punch the holes for eye let work, lay the linen on a cake of white soap.
 If very warm bedroom slippers are desired, they can be lined with Shaker flannel.
 It is a good idea to keep one pint Jar just for melting chocolate, then no chocolate is wasted

EDITH STOREY ALONE
 WITH LOT OF MEN

The feature at Fox's theater to- day is Edith Storey, in Treasure of the Sea-" with several of the popu- lar Fox featurettes.
 Edith Storey is the only woman member of the cast. All of her supporting players are men, who play roles of striking ability.
 Treasure of the Sea- is a story of romance and high adventure. Miss Storey has the fascinating role of Margaret Ell1ins, a girl who does not know the meaning of fear Inde- pendently of each other, Margaret and Jim HardWick find an old ship which, laden with gold bullion, was wrecked in the days of 49. Each is determined to have the treasure. In the process, Margaret, 'The Lady of the Sea- becomes a girl outlaw, cer- tain events making her believe that she is entirely within her rights. There are thrills in every reel and an absorbing story running through out After subjecting Jim to danger, Margaret is obliged to save him from it, and does so with nobility and herotsm. The picture is one that will live long in the memory of the spec tators.
 Tomorrow's feature is the New Britain favorite and also PlainvilIe's talented daughter, Norma Talmadge in Missing Linl1s," a gripping five reel drama of suspense, mystery and absorbing interest. She is admirably supported by Robert Harron, one of the most popular juvenile leads on the screen today. There will also be several short features of added in tereSt.

 Yes, it was great hour in the Old Testament times when men began to call upon Jehovah" The Bible is frag- rant with prayer. It runs all through it's pages like sweet incense unto the Lord. The great figures in it were men of prayer. Abraham, Jacob, Moses, sam uel, Elijah, Job, Jeremiah. Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah and others were great inter- cessors. They poured out their hearts to the Lord. Some of the special prayers of David come down to us as fresh and vigorous as if they had been but uttered yesterday. But best of all, the Master Himself spent much time in prayer out in the mountains. His life on earth was

LUKE MLUKE SAYS

There is no crime that woman | won't forgive if a man tells her that love for her drove him to 1t. l women like to say that they mar ried for love But the truth of the matter is that lot of them married for meal ticket.
 A girl knows a whole lot of things that she doesn't want her steady beau to know that she knows. And what has become of the old fashioned old maid who wore cork screw cur1s and kept a pug dog and a parrot?
 We don't know much. But we do
 know that you can find out more about
 a man by playing poker with him for 10 hours than you can by going to
 church with him for 10 years. You do not have to measure the bot tom of the skirts to see that they
 are narrower than they used to be. You merely measure the amount of stockings you see when the dear things get on the street cars. We do not blame fat women for wearing straight front corsets when they go out. If the fat men had any sense they would wear them, to.

An uncorseted effect and an invisible waist will help us poor nuts to for get the war for a few moments. all roosters and most men need very little excuse to start growing. Get confidential with the soprano and the contralto in most any church
 choir and the soprano will tell you that the choir needs new contralto and the contralto will tell you that the choir needs new soprano. Of course it is none of our business. But when a girl tells fellow that he can have kiss if he can catch her,

 This spirit of amity and. oneness of purpose existing between the north and the soulh and which has been mani- festly so intensified by the world war, is feelingly portrayed by Col. J. A. Watrous, retired United States army officer and federal veteran of the civil war.
