Thou Art the Queen Of FiowcrA
From fhe Toronto Man and Empire.

There came at purple even
An angel from the skies,
To bear a Sft Of Heaven
To gladden. human eyes;
So now I see adorning
My green and dewy lawn
This. flower Of the morning,
Born at tho early dawn.
Thou art the Queen OF Flowers.
Thou sweet, enchanting rose,
The fairest N the bowers.
Kissed by tho breeze that blowei
30 sway my heart forever
And make II beauty's throne,
That I. indeed, may never
Dwell in this world alone.
Upon the air ascending
How fragrant IL thy breath,
with dainty doors blending
Beyond the lands OF death;
The holy incense offered
Upon tho golden shrine
The sweetest ever prohered
Before the throne divinA.
TN pftick thee for the maiden
VINO pledged her love TO me.
Whose heart II richly laden
with its. sincerity;
She shall become tho wearer
OF thee, my rose divine.
For none indeed 10 fairer
Than this sweetheart Of mine

At the Margin Clerks Desk.

In the springtime, Just as the buds
were swelling on the trees In the
parks, they began to 60 to the brokers
in Wall Street, men Of all conditions,
Of all callings, Of all experiences ex-
cept experience in Wall Street trad
ing. They took with them their hard
earned savings or their easily ac-
quired SURPRISES; savings or surpluses
they would not PUT into Uncle Sans
bonds or into the prosaic guardian
ship of the savings banks.
Some had a thousand dollars, some
had double a thousand dollars, some
had half thousand dollars. They
had read Of trading on margin. Many
Of them did not understand Its de-
tails. but all Of them felt that it Of
fered a broad path to wealth won
without work. They had read Of 1t
in books, in magazines. In the news
papers. They had heard of shoe
strings run info tanyards, of coppers
transmitted into gold by the alchemy
of Wall Street buying what you could
not pay for. }
None of these knew of selling short :;
to the innocent In the stock market
selling short is a practice Of infamy
not less than mystery. Besides, didn't
]. P. MORGAN say "Never be bear
on America?
So they bought stocks, bought on
margin, bought trustingly and conf
IDENTIFY. And stocks went up. Paper
profits began to appear. Price adj
vances were encouraging. Opportu-
rities to sell out were frequent. But
who with gains to his credit In Wall
Street can be content>with hundreds?
Not the novice. He begins to dream
Of thousands. He forgets the limited
capital he is operating on. He hears
tales of rich winnings. Safety first
slips his mind. His stake Is small in
the huge transactions in which 1t is
engulfed; he forgets how large 1t is
to him.
The margined accounts grew. There
were profits any seasoned trader re-
tanning hlsfiear bought wisdom would
have seized. But the new specula-
tors wanted more. and they held on.
Their paper profits rose higher, their
commitments became deeper. And
then the market turned.
Even when the edlfice Of profits be-
gan to crumble many of these specu-
lators would not sell. though to- sell
meant easy money in their pockets,
fine vacations, bills paid or neat
stacks of Liberty bonds. They an
ewered the call for more margin with
what they could raise and prayed to
the god of gambling for a turn In the
current. Thus they held ON until the
bottom fell out and their brokers,
unable to get more margin in to pro-
tect their holdings, sold them ont.
Then the margin clerks began to
scratch accounts of their neat books
They scratched diligently all last
week; toward the end of the week
they scratched furiously, their work
far behind the downward progress Of
the market. Their scratching spelled
hardship to many. disaster to not n
few. The margin clerks deal with
impersonal accounts; the thousands
they scratch nut are book entries; but
their scratches spell sorrow to the
fellows who wouldn't let go.

Those Not in the Railroad Unions.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir: Can
you inform curious clerk what the
railroad unions are trying to do to the
clerks and other worklngmen who can
not seek more wages? Or does 1t cost
more for the railroad men to live than
for others? I for one think they have

Vain Cries From the wilson League.

6ence In Its entirety In order that the
citizens of the United States may be
informed Of the exact nature of the
propaganda SO industriously carried
forward in behalf of WooDRow VIII
SONS project to submerge American
independence and American nation
ality In the supersovereignty of the
proposed League Of Nations. The cor
respoDdence consists of two kilograms,
the first of which was received by the
gentleman to whom it was addressed
on the day after 1t was sent on its
devious way beginning in this city:
''NEw YoRK, N. Y. 6, via NEWARK,
Ohio, August z. 1919.
"A. H. HErsEY, Hotel 7raymore, At
Iantio City, N. j.:

sary. Win you join ninety-nine

.minai Building. New York;
"GEoRon w. wtcKERsHAM, CLEvE-
LAND II. DODGE. ALTON b. PAR
KER, JACOB II. ScHIFF, HERBERT
HOUSTON Treasurer Financial
Committee"
The cause in behalf of which this
frantic appeal for allopathic doses of
the stuff of which corruption funds
are made is in a bad way. So far
as the individual to whom this tele-
gram was sent is concerned 1t must
go without the dosage prescribed by
the eminent specialists who compose
Mr.. WILLIAM Fl. TAFT's financial ad-
visory board. Major Kelsey replied
as follows Immediately on receipt of
this cry for help:
"Mr. HERBERr HousroN, Treasurer
Fisdncial Committee League to
En5orce Peace, Neto York, N. Y:
Telegram received. Personally
and officially. as president OF the
American Protective Tariff League,
am opposed to the covenant OF the
League Of Nations. and II were to
contribute anything to a propaganda
in this connection 1t would be against
the adoption OF the covenant of the
League of Nations without reserva-
lions. I aeree with the position of
Chairman LODGE and Senator BoRAH
as announced in the newspapers OF
to-day. Very truly yours,
"a. H. Kelsey,
President the American Protec-
tive Tariff League"
In these two messages Is the formal
confession Of the advocates of Ameri-
can surrender to the League of Ma
lions that their scheme of national
cmasculation has been rejected by the
American people, and 1t marks their
last despairing effort to pile up OBJ
stacles to obstruct the broad road on
which intelligent, sane and far sighted
Americanism marches irresistibly for
the complete salvation of the Ameri-
can Government from the policy of
folly to which WOODROW WILSON has
endeavored to commit 1t. Together
they form heartening document for
all citizens Of the United States whose
idealism is not corrupted by IRA tional
doctrine and whose political virility
has not been sapped by the worship
Of false gods.

BAKER MEETS HUGGINS.
Home Run King Tells Yankee
Manager He Is Busy Builder.

BALTIMORE, Md, January IS
After an hours conference with John
Franklin Baker at the Hotel Emerson
yesterday afternoon Manager Miller
Higgins left Baltimore for New York
feeling confident that the Maryland
manufacturer of home runs would be
in the Yankee lineup during the 1919
penhant race. But the wee strategist
realizes for the first time in his life
that q bali player cannot have any
thing else on his mind when he is
building a house.
After the conference Baker would
not say definitely that he would play.
but his enthusiastic manner. his words
and his attitude toward the game
left no doubt these. things surely
must have made a deep impression
upon the pilot Of the Highlanders.
Moreover, the midget manager, IL he
is q student of human nature. must
realize that Baker would not have
left his beloved Trappe or torn him
self from his plans for his new home
to meet him in Baltimore unless he
had q very decided notion that he
would stick on the diamond.
Higgins also talked with Wilson
Fewsfer, the sensational young Bal
timore infielder. who now is through
with the Steel League. That this
player also will report to the Yankees
there is no doubt. But neither of the
PLAYERS signed a contract--at least,
each so declared.

800 ARE INOCULATED
AGAINST INFLUENZA
Employees of Bureau and Engraving
Submit to Public Health Serv-
Ia ice Experiment.

incubation against influenza. which
is regarded by the public health SER
vice as doing no harm even IL its eff
cheney is not proved, has been per-
formed upon about 800 employees of
the bureau of engraving and printing.
The public health service, in under
taking this experiment. is DESTROYS to
determine the exact value of inocula-
tion.
Recent attempts by surgeons of the
public health service and army medi-
cal reserve corps officers to transmit
influenza experimentally have pro-
duced nothing but negative results,
although eighty-six men in all have
been exposed deliberately both by
inoculation with the supposed germ
and by contact with victims of the
epidemic.
"The foregoing experiments, though
extremely interesting" observes the
public health service. do not, of
course, warrant final conclusions. 1t
is hoped that it may be possible to
carry the studies further and that
results may be obtained that will DELI
nitely settle the nature and mode
of spread of the virus of epidemic
Influenza.
"For the present the sanitarian will
do well to continue to apply the gen
eral principles of control that are
based on the justif1able assumption
that the disease is a droplet infection,
giving, however, increased attention
to a point that is suggested by these
experiments namely. an infective
period at the very earliest stages of
The attack.
1T would seem to be wise to give
renewed emphasis to the Importance
Of going 10 bed at the slightest indi-
cations of Illness"

ef1Za is reported in Georgia. South and
