They touched
Our hearts
For Serbia
We helped
And gave
Relief.
Our efforts then turned
From that worthy cause" to
Stricken Armenians- who
Needed our cash.
And the thought
Of their poverty
Opened the spring
OF our generosity.
We then were told
To gather our gold
For the fatherless
Riddles of France
So we worked our hardest
And worked our friends
For these poor little
Kids overseas.
Flu-stricken Poles
Have stirred our souls
Ano tears rained
Down our cheeks. Ga
But our tears are gone
And our eyes are dry
And our hearts beat
An even tune.
Our emotions
Are stilled-
We are dumb to the cries
When they come
From over the foam
We know of course
That our hearts :
Are hard
And we're soulless
Sinners y
And stingy wretches
And yet
We feel
That if some kind soul
Would start a drive
To- o,.. o,,,~. 1,&+l>

to keep Dan? Why didn't she let him
go so that she, Lucy, might have him?
Lucy had thought of herself so much Of
late as heroine Of fiction, she had told
Inez Holt so often that she was certain
that Dan was in love with her, and in
honor bound couldn't speak, that she
had actually come to believe it herself.
Lucy was certain that Dan would come
to her with an offer OF marriage If Julia
would only release him.
She crouched there on the stairs lis
tening and heard Julia come out OF the
back parlor and go through the hall to
the door. She heard Dan come in, and
then there was brief hesitation. Lucy
could not see but she was certain that
Dan had taken Julia into his arms and
was kissing her. She shivered little.
Then she heard them come along the
hall and go into the back parlor. She
listened intently, and then the faint
glow that came into the hall from the
lighted room beyond, was suddenly shut
off. Julia had closed the door.
Lucy clenched her hands in fury. She
felt that something dramatic was going
on behind that closed door, and here
was she shut out, unable to hear n
thing. It was the more maddening be-
cause she felt that she, ought to hear.
It concerned her vitality, for she was
one Of the principal figures in this tan
gle whether the others realized it or
not.

lawn bench in front of his place for his
own use during idle hours.
Young men Of the town grew to like
the bench, and Goodman at last found
that he sometimes had to stand up,
even though he owned the bench.
So he complained to the police.
Patrolman Billy" Fair, of the Main

would see that loafers were kept away
from the bench until the store re-
opened today
But as fast as the policeman would
order one crowd away another would
assemble.
Then Policeman Fair lifted the bcncl
to his shoulder and carried it to the
police station. There it was safe, and
the reserves enjoyed having it around
for they found it comfortable.
When Goodman went to his store this
morning and found that the bench was
gone he reported to the police that
some one had stolen it.
He was assured that his piece of
furniture was safe and would be re-
turned to the corner whenever he gave
the word.

An EXTRA SESSION.

In the closing hours Of the session
the Legislature went on record as
agreeing to pay the States part of
the ante-bellum debt of the old State
on the terms submitted by the Vir-
ginia Debt Commission and appoint
ed a committee TO report suitable
bill or bills to an extra SESSION OF the
Legislature to be called soon to pro-
vide suitable measure for raising the
money needed. Other subjects TO be
considered at this extra session, on
each of which committee to prepare
a suitable bill was appointed, are the
State Constabalary. purchase OF the
bridges between West Virginia and
Maryland. the primary election law
and on site for n government sani-
tarium for soldiers.
A conference Of prominent business
men Of the State which strongly
urged the payment of the debt was
held in Charleston during the closing
hours of the session and its declara-
ton favoring the payment of the debt
no doubt had much weight in Undue
ing the Legislature to go on record
for settlement without further de-

OUR NATIONAL CLOWN.

Every generation must have its
public clown. Senator Sherman is
elected to that place. Once, and he
was just a local institution, just
known in Illinois and by q, few folks
IN Washington, floor pages, etc. But
now he is a world institution. His
resolution directing the President not
to tell America what has been &C
complished al the Peace Conference
until he has made report to the
Senate will forever stamp him as the
clown of this time. A clown must
do the idiouc thing in perfectly
serious way, else he don't get his stuff
across. At this no man in all history
has been more successful. But Sher-
man did not intend to be a clown.
He takes himself seriously, and real
ly thought he was doing a wise thing.
So he is not only a clown, but he is
a foolish clown.
The President will doubtless report
to the people. He has not forgotten
that he received his commission from
the people 1t is not probable tina:
the President VIII even apologize for
SO doing to our national clown. Sher-
man will wonder why, and in so do
ing he will still play his part as
clown

ORGANIZED GREED WILL 60 ON TOUR.

Senator Dorah has announced that
certain business interests have en-
pOyed him to make tour through
the country to make speeches against
the League of Nations. Despite the
fact that h" belongs to the same party
aS does MI. Taft. he Is to undertake
to minimize Mr.. Taft's approval of
the League of Nations as now tormu-
lated. Mr.. Borah objects to the
Monroe Doctrine being established
to govern any part of the World save
here IN America. That is the funda-
mental thing in the constitution Of
the League OF Nations. Borah wants
Us to keep that doctrine here at
home.
The simple fact Of the matter is
that Organized Greed is to fight the
League of Nations either because it
desires to iiscre,'it the President here
at home, or else because it is willing
that war may continue IL political
Issue can be made
The tory element n American polt-
tics IS willing u erdanger the peace
OF tho world if it may only dominate
the government of America.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL THEY SAY.

Paying no respect or courtesy TO
the very reasonable request of the
President that there be no discussion
Of the Constitution for the League Of
Nations. given out and published
throughout the country last week,
until he, the President, had had an
opportunity to go over the instru-
ment fully with the members of the
Senate and House Committees on
Foreign Affairs, which he proposed to
do without delay on reaching Wash
ington. Senators Pettigrew, Of Wash
!ngton, Borah, of Idaho, Republicans,
and Reid, Of Missouri, Democrat,
sailed in assaulting the proposed con-
stitution in unmeasured terms con-
demning it as In conflict with the
Constitution Of the United States,
likely to involve US in entangling al
liances with European nations and
IL other respects Objectionable.
1t Is sufficient TO say here that ex-
President Taft, admittedly an able
lawyer, of long experience as a Judge
and often spoken of as a suitable
man for the U. s. Supreme Court
bench. takes issue with these Sena-
tors on both Of the points mentioned.
These Republican Senators. in oppos-
ing the League of Nations are plac-
ing themselves and their party in a
hole; If they succeed in rejecting the
league scheme they leave the world
exposed. possibly within few years,
10 another worlds war, probably
more dreadful and devastating than
the war just ended with the inciden-
tai burden on all nations Of constant
preparation for war. If they accept
it, after all they have said, they must
admit improper motives In opposing
1t. lack Of sense or ability TO judge
the proposed constitution correctly
and lack of vision in failing to see
the hope the league holds out 10 the
world Of relief from the horrors of
war. Should the Republican party
oppose and defeat the League-and
it seems to be drifting into this re-
dictionary position-it will rob the
world Of the dearest hope men have
ever cherished and bring to all the
peoples OF the earth a crushing dis
appointment In failing to realize
what thoy had hoped for as the su-
pren,e blessing Of victory--relief
from war as a means Of settling in
ternational disputes.
The Senators opposing the League
fail to observe that the world of to-
day is not the world that Washington
knew, that times ard conditions have
changed and men must change with
them II they hope to keep up with
the march OF progress.

THE FIFTH LIBERTY LOAN

The House Ways and Means Com
mittee agreed last week to issue
short term notes maturing in from
one to five years, for not more than
seven billion dollars. At the same
time Secretary Glass announced the
Loan would start not later than April
21st.
Secretary Glass vas given author
ity to issue one or more of four differ
ent kinds Of notes. One kind would
bear interest at per cent. and be
exempt from all Federal taxation :;
one would be at comparatively
high rate, possibly S per cent. and
subject to all Federal taxes; a third
would bear a moderate rate, prob
ably 4 IL per cent and be exempt
from normal income tax leyies; the
fourth would be exempt from taxa
ton up to certain amount.
In denomination the notes would
probably correspond TO past Liber-
ty Loans and the total Of these notes
will not be over seven billions of
dollars. AS yet the Treasury Depart
ment has not decided whether II will
use the notes as Congress passed leg
!slation some timo ago authorizing
the issuance Of six billions of dollars
worth OF bonds and there is a posi-
bllity that both may be used.
There are some people who do not
know and cannot see why the Gov
crnment should have need Of this
amount OF money after the war Is
over. At the time the armistice was
signed we were spending over fifty
millions day and up to the present
time there hasn't beon any appreci-
able decline in the costs Contracts
have to be filled, our boys have to be
returned home, ships that are on the
ways have to be finished and other
things too numerous to mention all
call for money.
The Fourth Liberty Loan brought
II to the Treasury nearly sevo- hill
lions. At least one half OF this had
10 be paid out TO take up treasury
certificates issued to banks through
cut the country to finance the Gov
eminent Until the Fourth Loan was
caTri I'd.
1t is the same now, the Govern
ncnt is again borrowing from the
hanks and mas already borrowed 3d.
SS5,67S,000 and by May 1st, when
the first payments on the Fifth Loan
will be received, 1t is estimated that
the full amount Of the coming Loan
will lave been borrowed.

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS,

William Howard Taft, rs President
of the League to Enforce Peace,
says:
"A deliberately planned campaign
IS gong on. intended to convince our
Peace Commissioners and the Allied
Nations that the rank and file OF
Americans do not want a League of
Nations and that the Senate will not
ratify a treaty that puts the United
States into the League"
III the campaign succeeds-if Eu-
ropean statesmen are convinced
that President Wilson's demand for
league does not represent American
feelings. or If he himself is convinc-
ed by it that the country will not
back him lin demanding that the
Senae ratify treaty establishing
a strong league-we will lose the
only opportunity that will come to
us in our lifetime 10 make the world
safe through a genuine League of
Nations"
BY this language President Taft
reveals two things; first, that he
recognizes that President Wilson is
doing the sane, sensible and patriot
&c thing when he brings about the
League of Nations.
Second. that there are people here
in America who do not want the
world made safe and free from the
dangers and carnage so recently ex-
erienced. President Taft urges
that community meetings adopt res
oluticns advocating the League of
Nations. and that copies thereof be
sent to our Senators, and TO Presi-
dent Wilson and to William H. Taft
at 100 West 42nc ST., New York
Mr.. John Raine. of Rainelle, is the
! designated County Chairman of the
League 10 Enforce Peace. and ne will
he glad to assist in such meetings as
may request It,
