HSEMANE

IN golden youth when seems the earth.
A sumner land for singing mirth.
When 7ouls are glad and hearts are light,
And not a shadow is in sight
We do not see it, but there lies
A garden. each must some time see.
Gethsemane Gethsemanei
Somewhere his own Gethsemane.
With joyous steps we go our ways,
Love lends a halo to the days.
Light sorrows sail like clouds afar.
We laugh and say how strong we are.
We hurry on, and hurrying, go
Close to the border land of woe
That waits for YOU. that waits for me.
Gethsemane! Gethsemanei
Forever waits. G~ethsemane.
Down shadowy lanes across strange streams
Bril- over by our broken dreams
Behind the misty cape of years.
Gies . the great salt fount of tears.
The garden lies, strive as you may,
You e4nnot miss it in your way.
All paths that have been or shall be.
Pass somewhere thro' Gethsemanei
All those who journey, soon or late.
Must pass within the garden gate.
Must kneel alone in darkness there.
And b7ttle with some fierce despair.
God pity those who cannot say
Not mine but Thine, who only pray,
Let this cup pass. and cannot see
The purpose in Gethsemane.
G-ethsemane Gethsemanei
God help US thro' Gethsemane.

Hot Application to the
Abdomen Is. an Old Remedy

One of the old standby of doctors is
in the form of hot-water bags, hot
plates, hot congresses or wen hot fiat
irons. This produces a certain sense
of well-being and is supposed to relax
spasm and aid digestion. But the Jour-
nal of the American Medical Associa-
tion points out that all experiments to
ascertain how the heat acts fail to
prove that it acts at all. 1t is certain
that the heat does not actually pene-
trate the organs within the abdomen,
and it may be that whatever results
are obtained are brought about by way
of the V mechanism connecting
the skin and the internal organs.

Weaving of Artistic Rug as
Old as Greece Itself

Rug making is as old as Greece it,
self, but it was never made a CONNER
cial item. and it was rare indeed that
a weaver could be persuaded to part
with his rug. Greek rugs are of two
kinds, the heavy one used in winter
and the light n es used at all times.
In the beginning the designs were of
the simplest, but later the Greeks bor-
rOwed floral designs from the Persians,
which loan was amply repaid with the
development of Grecian art. Venetian
rugs are also very rare.

interallied flag and each with an Aus
trian commander and a mixed Austrian
and Italian crew, arrived yesterday from
Marseilles with complaining doughboys,
who threw biscuits from the ships that
rebounded like bsseballs from the pier
floors. They were the sort OF biscuits
unmarried parsgraphists accuse young
brides OF making. The doughboys said
they did not like the Austro-Italian style
OF cooking and were not appeased until
the Red Cross folks on the pier handed
out to them some real American prov
ender.
Disputes between Austrian and italian
sailors and cooks on the trip were
patched UP by labor union leaders, who
we're sent along to keep tho peace. The
Austr!Ans may not be permitted to 20

SAY HARBOR STRIKE
MAYLAST 6 MONTHS
Marine Workers Claim Settle
ment With Three Concerns
Coal Crisis Over.

That the strike OF marine workers in
the port Of New York may last six
months was the prediction OF several
strikers at union headquarters yester-
day. These men were boat workers and
not labor leaders whose control OF the
strike Is said to constitute the chief
obstacle 10 its settlement
Private boatowners declared yester-
day that tho situation. now seemingly
deadlocked. IL not worrying them. and
that the only hardship caused by the
walkout 10 upon the men themselves
who are forced TO support their families
on the meagre allowance given by the
unions
The strike committee held a meeting
yesterday morning in the hope that
some report would be received from
Mayor Hylan upon his intended action
to break the strike. but no word came.
II was said in other quarters that the
Mayor has little sympathy for the
strikers In view OF their threats in jan
uary. but that he is anxious to I'M
tangIe the port problem and probably
will take II. up soon.
The coal crisis is apparently over In
spite OF the navy's refusal to give the
public utilities OF New York any towing
aid in the transportation of coal from
New Jersey to Manhattan. John ].
Dempsey. vice-president and general
manager OF the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
Company. declared yesterday that his
lines would not be compelled to curtail
any OF its service. There is a surplus
supply on hand now. and he Is conf
dent the Railroad Administration will
give any assistance that may be needed
in the future.
After a meeting in strike headquar-
tiers last night attended by James L.
Hughes. Federal Labor Conciliator
Thomas L. Delahunty. Capt William
A. Maher. Paul A. Vaccarelli and a
dozen members OF the strike committee
1t was. announced that the union had
Effected a settlement with the Sydman
Lightersge Company, Joseph p. Clark
Coal Company and William Higgins, a
private boat owner. Pickets reported
that the boat owners had stormy meet
ing and that there was a split In their
ranks, but a visit 10 the Tow Boat Ex-
change disproved the statement.
Stephen Condor. manager of the
lighter captains union. reported tina I
longshoremen had struck on Piers 80,
81 and So of the Porto Rico line. Presi-
dent James Mcguire of the same union
estimated that 10 per cent. of the strike
was won. Several transatlantic ships
were held UP at Brooklyn piers because
