Altoona, Oct. S.-W. z. Foster,
secretary of the National committee
for organizing iron and steel work.

concerning his election from Johns
ton last night. He said:
City police and others took it
upon themselves to order me out of
town. A couple of newspapermen
met me on the street as l came from
the station. They told me the busi-
nessmen had met and decided they
would use Duquesne and McKees-
port tactics. They warned me there
would be a riot at Labor Temple
il 1 went there to speak. While
was taking lunch at a restaurant the
reporters told me the businessmen
were ready to "clean up" and that
they have elected the mayor they
want. On the street two city de-
tectives advised me not to go to the
hall. When 1 asked them whether
the authorities could not protect me
they told me the best protection
could have was to get out of the
town. I went to Conboy's hotel and
sent for him. When he came
told him I took the situation seri-
ously, as I did not wish to have
any disorder. We agreed to go see
the chief of police and the mayor.
but on the sidewalk a score or
more of men surrounded me and
was cut off from Conboy. They
headed me toward the Pennsylvania
station and 1 went. There was MOTH
ing else to do. A city detective ac-
companied us and we passed sew
eral policemen. My escort told me
they were ready to clean up. I told
them I had done more than any
man in Johnstown for months to
keep the mills going there and pre-
venting a strike, and they agreed
with me. I told them Conboy was
honest and asked them to give him
a square DEAL"

it is discussed freely at Washington.
Several of the departments and bu-
reaus of the government have taken
positive steps to "cash in" on the ten
year-old expectations that have exist
ed with reference to Central American
and South American trade.
The fate of the German ships that
were seized by the United States gov
ernment will be determined at the
peace table. In addition to the 100000
tons in the possession of the United
States there are German ships in
many ports of the world that will new
er again be operated under the flag of
the fatherland. The American losses
in ships totalled about $4,000 tons.
The extent of the English loss in
tonnage has not been determined, but
the amount is enormous. Before the
war England and Germany were the
principal factors in the world in for
eign commerce. By the fortunes of
war both nations are now secondary
to the United States.

The royal feast was done; the king
Sought some new sport to bahish care,
And to his jester cried: "Sir Fool,
hneel now and make for US a prayer"'
The jester dof'or his cap and bells,
And stood the mocking court before;
They could not see the bitter smile
Behind the painted grin he wore.
He bowed his head, and bent his knee
Upon the monarch's silken stool;
HIS pleading voice arose: 90 Lord.
Be mefcifuI to me, a fool!
mo pity, Lord, could change the heart
From red with wrong to white as wool;
The rod mast heal the sin: but Lord,
Be mercjfuj to me, fool.
|" 'Tis not by guilt the onward sweep
Of truth and right; 0 Lord, wa stay;
'Tis by our follies that SO long
We mold the earth from heaven away.
"Those clumsy feet still in the mire,
Go crushing blossoms without end;
These hard, well-meaning hands we
thrust
Among the heart-strings of a friend.
The ill-tincd truth we might have
kept
Who knows how sharp it pierced and
stung?
The word we had not sense to say
Who knows how grandly it had rung!
"Our faults no tenderness should ask,
The Christening stripes must cleanse
them all;
But for our blunders-oh, in shame
Before the eyes of heaven we fall.
Earth bears no balsam for mistakes;
Men crown the 5nave, and scourge the
tool
That did his will; but Thou, o Lord,
Be merciful to me, foolw
The room was hushed; in silence rose
The king, and sought his gardens cool,
And walked apart: and murmured low,
"Be merciful to me, fool"

BELGIUM FACING
POLITICAL CRISIS
Continued from page one)

Continued from page one)
cier's great personality and the ener-
gy he displayed in behalf of Belgians
during the war is said to have greatly
helped the cause of the Catholic party.
One cause of bitterness and ami
mostly in Belgium is the Flemish
movement which now is practically
dead owing to the efforts of the late
German governor, Won Kissing, to
make use of it to divide Belgium into
two parts. 1t is expected that the
Flemish movement will revive when
lief resumes normal conditions but it
is held in abeyance now through fear
that it might be construed as German
propaganda. King Albert in his speech
to the parliament after returning to
Brussels announced that the govern
ment will propose bill to create the
bases of a Flemish university at
Ghent, reserving the details to the
new parliament to be elected later.
Pro-Germans and "activists" who
supported the German scheme to drive
a wedge between the Flemish and the
Walloons in Belgium are now ostra-
cized socially. Many arrests have
been made in Brussels, Ghent and
Rruges. The people of Ghent divide
their hatred and bitterness evenly be-
tween the Germans and the "activ-
lists" Bruges is filled with a deep
rooted hatred of eevrything German
while Brussels ridicu}es both pro- Ger
mans and "activists."
In Brugos 153 women who dealt with
Germans were beaten and their hair
was shorn. In Ghcnt pro-Germans
and "aotivists," both men and women,
we're physically punished.

CHILD CONSERVATION

If, as it has been tritely said, "the
hope of our country is in the youth of
the land" then the preservation and
augmentation of the metal and physi-
cal efficiency Of the children becomes
of national Importance.
The prevention and correction of
physical disabilities which prevent
children from taking full advantages
,of educational opportunities offered by
the state is a prime duty of the state.
The beginning of the practice of
health supervision of school children
was for the purpose of controlling the
sO-called communicable diseases of
childhood. The scope of the work has
since been broadened so as to include
all defects.
The following is suggested by the
! Florida state board of health as a
practical plan of health supervision of
children attending school:
l. Provision and supervision of full
time school physicians and school
nurses. Making each county a unit.
2. Maintenance of health supervis-
ion of school children to detect and
correct physical and mental defects
and . control communicable diseases.
3. Determination of normal stand
ards of nutrition and development,
and adoption of measures designed to
promote physical development to in
crease vital resistance.
a. Practical instruction in the prin-
clpies of sanitation and hygiene.
5. Supervision of the home and
school environment for the prevention
of improper seating, illumination, ven
tilation and sanitation, and for the de-
lection of incipient cases of communi-
cable diseases.
6. Physical examinations to deter
mine the physical fitness of children
leaving school to enter particular in
dustries.
7. Education of the public to create
! a demand for health supervision of
school children.
! 8. Mental examination of school
children to determine and prescribe
the most suitable treatment and train
ing for children who are unable to
profit by the usual courses of study.

MOONLIGHT LAKE
NEAR DREAM LINE,
TO MRS. MOON AND MRS. LIGHT.

Just little quiet lake
Where moonbeams' faces culver,
And waking daylight's lances make
A billion dewdrops shiver
With a trllion scintilations
Brighter far than gems of nations.
When the wild flowers bloom their
brightest,
Here the wood nymphs dance their
lightest-
Shake their tresses to the wind
He's no faithful, constant lover,
But wayward tickle rover;
Yet their locks he'll often bind
Into coronets caressing
Their soft cheeks, and kisses pressing
On their lips while stars are blind
Tho our worlds a busy one,
Not an idle day
Hands must toll from sun to sum-"
Hearts may dream alway;
And vheir memory often strays
Back to dreams of other days.
And when dayIight's rays, declining
Meet the moonbeams lambent shining
Each in each their light dissolve
We can feel our dream-friends near
est;
Hear their soundless voices clearest;
And life's heart-thrusts we absolve
For, away from facts stern reason,
Drift we, with them for a season
In sphere our thoughts evolve.
Just a little quiet lake
Close by the sobbing sea;
Yet fair enough for love to make
A song for you and me
Of wondrous realms, of far transition
Where time-blown- dreams shall find
fruition.

Prices closed nervous, to 3 cents net lower with May 145 l-2 to 145 5-S and July 134 1-2 to 134 3-A. Oats finished 3-S to 2 1-sc down and provisions off 10 to BOG.
 Scantiness of stocks of corn here and at other leading centers led at times to rallies, especially in the May delivery, but none of the up- turns proved to be lasting and after midday reports of the purchase ot 100000 bushels of Argentine corn, April shipment at $l.35 c. l: F. New York turned sentiment decisively against the bulls. On the ensuing de- cline, May went more than six cents lower than the recent top.
