Just before Christmas a Teller
feels awful blue.
And he is mighty worried too,
For the final tests will soon begin
And do not end until Christmas
when
They spoil all the Christmas fun.
For how can one dream of a rocket
or a gun
When he has exams. in mind?
And if he dreams, he'll fall be-
hind.
He often wonders if the children
of all nations
At Christmas have to take exam
nations,
If he knew a country where they
do not,
Be it cold, temperate, or be it
hot,
For that country he'd at once set
sail,
Regardless of sun, rain, sleet or
hail.
Then teacher says, Children,
this is an easy test,
And each of you must do your
best,
For it will soon be Christmas
time
When all to higher heights should
climb"
Then a Teller begins to work
Resolving that no work he'll shirk
But all resolutions have an end
And then if ever a fefler needs a
friend.
For he has forgotten all he knew,
And his neighbors say they have
too
Be it Latin, French or Greek,
/ Every exam. is but a freak,
But examinations are over at last
And a little later he. finds he's
passed.
To bis helper he feels like kneel,

For joy! Amt it a glorious feel.

PrOhibitiOnists See No Break in Long
 Period of DrOuth

Washington, July 10.-Because of it's bearing on the fate of wartime prohibition, President Wilson's view that completion of demobilization of the army would depend upon the speed with which Germany executed the military terms of the treaty, and which the pact was ratified by the various nations, was widely discussed today in congressional and other cir cles.
 Prohibition advocates expressed the conviction that Rehabilitation would not be completed before the country became dry by constitutional amend ment next January 16. They said Germany had from one to four months in which to carry out the military terms; that the president believed American troop should be maintained on the Rhine durine that time, and that in all probabilities the men there could not be brought home and mus tered out much before the first of the year.

have never forgotten her joy at seeing
me and her tender greeting. She got
into the buggy and rode home with
us, holding me in her rap. Uncle Pea
body and one of our neighbors had
been out in the woods all night with
pine torches. l recall how, although
excited by my return, he took off
his hat at the sight of my new friend
and said:
"Mr. Wright, l never wished that
/ lived in palace until now"
He didn't notice me until held up
both feet and called: Look a there,
Uncle Peabody"
Then he came and took me out of
the buggy and l saw the tears in his
eyes when he kissed me.
The man told of finding me on his
little veranda, and l told of my ride
with Dug Draper, after which Uncle
Peabody said:
I'm goin' to put in your boss and
feed him, Comptroller"
And I'm goin' to cook the best
dinner I ever cooked in my life," said
Aunt Deel.
When the great man had gone Uncle
Peabody took me in his lap and said
very gently and with serious look {:
You didn't think I meant it, did
ye?-that you would have to go way
from here?"
Il don't know" was my answer.
"'Course l didn't mean that. l just
wanted ye to see that it want going
te do for you to keep on tippin' things
over so.''
That evening as was about to go
upstairs to bed. Aunt Deel said to
my uncle:
"Do you remember what OIL Kate
wrote down about him? This is his
first peril an he has met his first
great man an 1 can see that Sile
Wright is kind O. fond o. him."
l went to sleep that night thinking
of the strange, old, ragged, silent
woman.
