DON'T BE A STACKER

t1iHE man who refuses to do his share
= toward keeping government clean and
efhcient in time of peace is just as much
a Stacker as the man who tries to get out
,of bearing arms in time of war
The slackers are primarily responsible
sfor whatever bad government there is,
whether they be the rich and educated
who spend election day automobiling in
re mountains or playing golf at the
eountry clubs or whether they be the poor
2and ignorant who sit in their shirt sleeves
4 At home with newspaper and a pipe.
We shall know on the night of Septem-
lber 6 how many slackers there are in
this city, because then the registration
rolls will be virtually closed.
Tomorrow is the first DAY OF registra-
tlon. Citizens will have an opportunity
Ito get their names on the rolls between
and o'clock in the morning and a and
10 o'clock in the afternoon. These hours
make it easy for workers to register be-
fore they go to business in the morning
\ or after they go home at night. But the
\ wise men will register in the morning
at the first opportunity
Mr.. Moore's suggestion to the employ
n ers that they give their men the time off
reeded to register without any reduc-
tion in pay is an appeal to their public
spirit Many men have to leave home
before o'clock in order to get to their
lpiace of employment on time. If they
are assured before they go home this
4 afternoon that they will not be docked to-
1 morrow if they are late because of a
visit to the place of registration it is
likely that thousands of them will get
their names on the roll who otherwise
u ould take their chances of getting reg
lstered at some other time.
And the suggestion that they register,
however they may intend to vote, coming
from their employers ought to be infiu-
ential for good. If the employers are not
siackers the employees will be less likely
70 neglect their civic duties.

SELF-DETERMlNATlON IN NCLoCKS

"TNHE powers not delegated to the
United States by the constitution
nor prohibited by it to the states are re-
served to the states, respectively, or to
the people"
Thus in virtue of the tenth amendment
to the federal constitution any organized
community in the land, or indeed any in
divdua person, can adopt a daylight
saving plan. OF course, the solitary time
fixer is quite out of it. He is like a man
with an crratic watch but towns and
states to which the farmers objections
to the artificial clock do not appeal can
by concerted action continue to live by
the least onerous economy born of the
war.
A powerful movement in favor of the
advanced hour hand is already under way
in New York. The Pittsburgh Chamber
of Commerce urges the enactment of
notwithstanding ordinance by the City
Council The Philadelphia Chamber of
Commerce is to discuss the Pittsburgh
idea tomorrow.
1t is well worth considering for in this
city the light economy was productive of
nothing but good. The schedule for an
industrial community is admirable.
Within the past two years it has resulted
in the saving of millions of dollars here
in addition to giving the workingman
healthy and enjoyable new recreation
hour.
1t is said that local lf-determination
in time will occasion great confusion in
the railway schedules. Yet, if the fiat
clock be respected in large enough dis
trict, suburban service in summer can
adhere to it, while the time tables can
briefly and clearly specify on what sys-
tenn the through trains operate. For
years many western cities have differ
entiated between train time and local
time.
The obstinate pigs and cows dictated to
Congress its repeal of the daylight
saving law. If sufficiently populous
metropolitan districts sincerely want it
they can still defy the farmyard The
constitution backs them up.

THE HEART or A ROSE

on, THE heart of rose is a beautiful
" thing
The heart of rose in bloom.
'Tis born of the sun, the earth and air:
Tis dipped in dream of colors rare,
Alive with natures hue.
Oh. the heart of a rose in its tender bloom
The heart of rose so true
Its secret you guess as you tenderly press
Its heart to the heart of you.
Oh, the heart of rose is a wonderful thing
The heart of rose in bloom.
"Tis bathed in its sleep by the midnight dew
'Tis Graded to rest by the earth that drew
Its bloom from the depth of it:
'Fis touched by the tip of an angels wing
As it sweeps along unseen.
Its fragrance rare will free from all care
And message of love will bring.
Oh, the heart of a rose is perfect gift
The heart of a rose in bloom.
'Tis sweet with the scent of awakened earth 4;
'Tis a-thrill with the joy that gives it birth
While laved in the suns bright ray;
'Tis sweet on the rift of the winds wide
drift
Till its petals trembe away.
Or. perfect gift is the rose you lift.
Tho its bloom doth last but a day.

All the war is DER, they say.
And peace does reign once more-they say,
But you and I who ride the "L,"
Have quite a different tale to tell:
For we go over the top each night.
And beat the doughboys, when we fight
To jump in first and get scat,
Or cen place to rest our feet.
We're finally settled and ali looks rosy,
When some big Hun steps on our toes.
This brutal act brings forth rude cries,
And we bayonet him with our eyes.
The battles done, the guns cease firing.
We grasp that strap with efforts untiring,
But our feminine neighbor with her pine.

Scratches our cheek, and makes us sore.

Is said by her, and leaves her free,
And we smile our sweetest as martyr

And stihe the desire to bawl her out, too.

With fiery temper, and exhausted patience,
And we sigh as We think of tomorrow night
When we must buck up for the same old
