POETRY
LOG OF SEVEN SEAS.

Oh, this is the log of the Seven Seas.
 of the Arctic ice foes white. Rubber and fur and polar bears and
 the long black Northern night; or the wide Pacific1s pearls and spice.
 and the Indian Oceans sheen When full moon shines on a dingy
 sail and bleaches the brown la
 teen,
 The trade winds call to the stormy Hcrn where the racing clippers
 spun 4 wake of foam like a4scarf of lace
 trailed through from sun to sun. Or the lonely. locks of Panama from
 deep to deep invite The ship to shorten a voyage long by
 6 trans-Pacific flight. There's Q beckoning fan from far
 Japan and bales of silk to go And the smell of tar on the Hongkong
 wharves where rancid ebreezes And wheat that waits at Russia gates to pour in the freighter's When the crimson terror has passed
 away and the guns of death are There are lines snowy and satin
 smooth from the Irish coast to
 bring
 Through the wild North seas that bow
 like a pack of gray wolves
 spring
 And treasures rare from the low dark
 shores where Africa steams and
 stews,
 And rugs from Asia that time has
 toned to wonderful reds and
 blues.
 The Caspian and the Baltic, too, and
 the Adriatic send Their greetings forth from the busy
 docks where a thousand odors blend;
 And away down deep in the Spanish Main the bones of the buccan- eerS
 Begin to stir to the tales Of wealth on a hundred island piers. For fresh from the matchless victory to which it led the world The peerless flag of the free again for a conquest is unfurled, Its glittering stars and glowing stripes are leading the great parade Of merchant ships to the Seven Seas to capture the ports ot trade. -Ainna Irving, in the New York Sun.
