OMETHING CHEAP AT LAST.
why sit that radiant smile
IIIumes my marble cheek?
Who do dance full many a mile,
Performing steps unique!
Why does our Liberty's great lamp
Warm al the hearts Of men?
The two-cent stamp, the tWo-eent stamp
Is on the throne again!
WHAT do care though butchers say
That steaks are higher s6I7
What boots if that more rent pay
To keep my domicile?
What matters it my wife must scamp
On things that needed are7
The twO-cent stamp, the twO-eent stamp
Is back again at parl
IT'S true that clothes, and hats, aad shoes
That am forced to buy
Resemble those that angels use.
In that they hit the skyI
But little do think of feet.
Or covering for my brow,
When | receive the tiding sweet
That stamps are cheaper nowI
n MOTHER with the baby frail,
For whom dea Ii holds the door,
Rejoice, although the miLEman's scale
Is up a cent once more!
Rejoice, though hunger may be near,
And human hope has passed.
Rejoice, 0 motherl since us clear
That stamps are down at lastl

He travels fastest who travels alone"
Thus spal1e q singer whose name is
well known;
But who'd travel fast II in travelling
He Closes &c the door on the joy and the
OF friendly converse on the things
that he sees
With we1l-loved companions, and
loses the trees.
The gardens. the flowers. the lad and
the lass,
The fields and the forests. the grain
and the grass.
And all Of the pictures that tell Of
the days
or those who dwell nigh to his fast
travelled ways2
Let who viii go fast go as fast as

And speed like the wind over valley

For me I'll go slowly and pause as I

To JOY in the comrade that goes by

And give Ger the things Of the far

# seeing them means I must travel

CHRISTMAS TIES DIFFER
WITH EACH YEAR. e.

Who designs the christmas neck
tieS?" Every man knows what is
meant by this phrase. Annually,
about this time of year. they appear
in the stores and show windows. in
boxes and out. in phalanxes. in fes-
toons and sheaveS, and in single splen-
dor like "Kohinoors.'
They are no more like the neckties
of other seasons than Easter eggs
are like those obtaining on the other
1854 days of the year. In fact, they
rather resemble the article to which
they have been compared.
Strange swirls of color transverse
them: they are not exactly futurist.
or cubist. or pre-Raphaelite, or post
impressionist, but partake of the na-
ture of all those schools of art, with a
decided leaning toward the general
color effect of perfectly cooked and
partly opened Spanish omelet, or of a
busy artists palette.
Gone, laid away on shelves and in
stockrooms, at this time of year, are
the usual styles-the plain colors, the
substantial knitted scarfs, the bows,
quiet or bright, even the usual loud
patterns. Their substitutes must loom
up to Friend Wife, unused to tie-buy-
ing at all other seasons, as desirable
innovations. but one man can spot
another wearing a Christmas tie on
land he can see him a dickens of a
ways. if wearing a "remembranceO.
Question number two at once comes
to mind here-where do these Yule-
tide ties go? Few men sport them
after New Year. Ashmen would be dis
inclined to wear them. Yet they can't
all be laid away, increased until an
other Christmas in order to be re-
donated. for the stores annual crop
comes as suddenly and as numerously
as the crocuses in the spring.
But the first question is the more
puzZling. Perhaps somewhere in a
high mountain range lies an almost
inaccessible hamlet whose simple, yet
skillful. inhabitants preserve the art
of Christmas tie designing handed
down with canonS intact from father
to son, and from mother to daughter,
just as the Navajos perpetuate the de-
signs of their well known, all-wool
blankets, or as the Swiss wood -carvers
make the same bears. channels and
stays as were popular in the time OF
Wilhelm Tell.

COAL MINERS HAVE CHANCE
TO TRAIN FOR BETTER JOBS

sible for other miners to do the same
thxg Bischoff said:
Certainly it is. But they will not
do 1T, except in the fewest possible
cases. They haven't the DESIRE the
ambition. They would rather put in
their idle time fishing or hunting or
playing base ball. They have little
desire to study, and less to save
money.
Established Extensive Courses.
The West Virginia Coal and Coke
Company few years ago established
extension courses of the University
of West Virginia at all of it's mines
These courses include mining engi-
neering. steam and electrical engi-
neering. and several technical sub
jects. in addition to regular academic
courses in extension work.
The company provided comfortable
buildings for it's schools. 1t paid all
of the expense for text books, sup
plies, etc, even down to scratch pa
per and pencils. The courses cost the
men absolutely not a cent-nothing
but their time.
AT several OF the mines interest
was SO slight that after struggling
along for a few months the extern
sion schools were closed and aban-
doned. When only one or two men
out of a couple of hundred showed
enough lnlcTCSt " otlch 10 tHtlT
studies even for one month it was
deemed impossible to maintain the
schools. other mine forces showed
more interest. and the schools were
kept up. I am proud TO say that
several young fellows who completed
these extension courses afterward
graduated from the university and
are making good in responsible office
positions But when one considers
the opportunity and the number of
IoI HAr co1xv
Of the whole number of miners in the
company's employ, it is rather dis
couraging.
Foreign Born. Best Students.
An interesting point brought out by
Mr. Bischoff was that men Of foreign
blood were in the majority among
those completing the extension courses
offered free by the company Italians
or young men of Italian parentase
outnumbered the Americans who com
pleted the courses. with Scotchmen
and Welshmen a close second. These
men. too. it was stated. saved more
money than did their American fell

! miners employed in all of the COM
pany's mines near Ellkins. several
thousand in all. less than 300 started
the courses, and fewer than $50 COM
pleted them.
The men do not seem to have any
desire to better their condition, if it
involves effort or sacrifice on their
part" said Bischoff. IF wages can
be increased through increases in the
union scale. all well and good. The
union will see to that; and the union
| will see to improving working con-
ditions in the mines. and, in a way. to
! improving living conditions as far as

company goes much further along that

U. S. TO CARE FOR MEN.

Former service men needing med
ical or surgical treatment as a result
of illness or injury suffered while in
the Army or Navy may become pa
tients in an Army hospital. public
health service hospital or local civil
ian institution, and have all expenses
paid by the government, according
to an announcement by the War De-
partment.
A bulletin acquainting the men
with their rights and which is being
given wide distribution, says:
ANY discharged service man who
is in need of medical treatment and
feels that his illness is due to wounds
or other disabilities received or ag-
gravated while in service should at
once see the nearest Army hospital
or local representative of the United
States public health service for an ex-
animation. Addresses may be ascer-
tanned from the postmaster. The
American Red Cross representative
and state or municipal health officer
also are able to advise service men
about their cases and should be con-
suited.
"If discharge or other papers show
ing that the disability was existing
at the time of separation from service
they should be taken along, as they
VIII be of help in making a decision
on the case. However. if these papers
are not available the man should not
hesitate to apply"
