Washington. D. C., Aug 2s.-At-
tacks on the Kenyon and KendricS
bills for regulation Of the packing in

senate agricultural committee. E. NJ
Ammons, former governor Of Colo
RADIO. headed a delegation OF II cattle
men from that state IN opposition to
the legislation
I'm not opposed to regulation by
law" Mr.. Ammons said. But I am
opposed to laws which give discre-
tionary powers to officials to make
laws.
IF you want to divorce packers
from ownership Of refrigerator cars
I think you might as wen take away
their delivery wagons-pass a law and
say so. The same for stockyards. Our
experience IS that when yards are
owned by people interested in the
business. we get more facilities and
owns them just for investment.
Stringent LAWS Sufficient.
"HSor do L think you ought by IL
cense to control market news. for that

Written for The Catholic Bulletin by
DR.. James Henderson,

The sun is coming back today
Bout ninety million miles away;
He's turned his face, | see him smile
And. you may bet tbs one worth
while
When Sol swings back, and down the
spheres!
He's done SO now those. many years.
Long fore Walt Mason with his knack
OF rhyming, shamed the Muse, alack!
He's coming back. at least we say
Oh no. we're going down his way
In space where he SO coyly swings,
To deal us winters. falls and springs
Where verdant grasses spread and
sweep,
And birds go winging in their sleep
Where splashing rills and stones moss
grown
Give nature just the proper tone.
0 let us live as now his beams
From out the heavens in full
streams
Set soul and pulses all aglow,
AS fast they race across the snow;
Full iubilant we sit and hope
To see bright days, and vistas Ope
Where swaying fields and balmy
winds
MAY race along. feet-fOoted kinds:
Delicious scents, melodious dreams
AS walk we by low rambling streams
He's coming back, he's coming back
Or, we are going with our pack.
Come, children, take your joys along
And you can puddle to his song
With pantaloons rolled 'bove the
knees.
Yes, you may do bout as you please
With Soils glad smile to light the
way, .... 49,.

THE NOBLE PINE.

AS the sun goes down on an aurora
night,
The long white shafts reaching far,
Seem to rest on the top of the tall
pine trees,
Guiding as did the Bethlehem Star.
Beneath the mansion of the north
The Red Men called their home.
Here the missionaries under Hennepin
Found them meath it's sheltering
dome.
The lessons that they taught them,
brave,
AS they turned from idol worship
To the Christ that died to save.
For years they roamed, this humble
race,
Through forest hall that's past;
The noble pine protecting them
From summers heat and winters
blast.
Sweet song birds from every cline
Assembled there in spring,
With voices low and notes so clear,
They made the forest ring
The fleet foot deer and fawn,
The moose, the elk, and bear,
The very forest seemed to bid
! A welcome to them there.
But soon the white mans greed,
| Read this mansions knell,
AS column after column,
Side by side theysfets I
From run to mill they passed.;
! From mill, until at last,
| The mighty raft, the noble pine,
Is a memory of the past.

THE PRESENT.

Many person looks out with I'M
seeing eyes upon landscape through
which he is passing: even though the
country be strange one. So strong
is his mental vision of scenes just
left, or of those he is to meet, that
for the moment the present is COM
pletely obliterated.
1t were decidedly more sensible to
leave the memory of the past and the
pleasurable anticipations of greetings
that await us at the elimination of
the journey. and enjoy to it's full the
wales that are SO fieeting. We may
not pass this way again.
The delights of a journey does not
consist alone in the welcome awaiting
us, but in the scenes and incidents by
the way as we'll.
Thus we picture and dream of the
joys of the great tomorrow of heaven
and fail to extract the heaven-senl
joys of the present.
| Memory stretches across such voids
| of time. Faith reaches to the farthes
| limits of eternity. The present con
| tains the essence of the two.
We heap so much upon the altar O
remembrance that we allow the fire!
to die upon the present, thereby miss
ing the joy and peace which it nigh
minister unto us.
We are dead and blind to the i'm
palpable influence of the things abou
us. We have not learned to see O
listen. In vain Nature sings her songs
in the sunshine, the flowers, the bah
bling brooks, while our thoughts ar
dwelling upon joys that await in tn
tomorrow which may never be ours

POLICE DOGS DURING THE BAL
81 KAN WAR.

After several attempts had been
made to damage the railways used for
the transportation of Greek troops into
Turkish territory. dogs were employed
TO guard the lines, the Greek Govern

the purpose. The result were excel
lent. AT Larissa in particular the en-
tire railroad line was efficaciously pro-
tected by dogs.
So much interest was aroused in
Europe by this new use for dogs and
the success of the experiment that re-
ports were officially asked for by the
various European military authorities
concerning the special training of the
Gogs.
