TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
THE SINGING FIRE.

The Fires still singing the song you knew
In the nights when the Mother was singing loo
Singing the child in her arms TO sleep,
Who trembed to hear the witch wind creep,
Or over the housetops storming. cry
To the ghostly dark and the starless sky.
Life is sweet life is long:
With never sigh or farewell song;
Life is laughter, and life is play,
And the Dark will dream itself away.
That's the song the Fire sang to you,
There-where the Mother was singing too.
It is singing the same old song tonight
To the wintry dreamer, with temples white,
After the years. rain dark with tears
After lost dreams of the beautiful years!
For the singing Fire has never known
That the listening dreamer dreams alone.
Change friendly Fire. that singing word,
And let this song in the Dark be heard:
"Iife is lonely and tempest tossed,
Too long-too long when Love is lost!
But the Fire still sings the old loved song;
Life is sweet as life is long,

OUR LABOR LEADERS AND OTHERS.

The Gate City few weeks ago reproduced
the remarks of prominent labor leader OF
Great Britain which had been Incorporated IN
a speech in opposition to strike methods as fol-
lowed by the workers in England. Not all the
British labor leaders are of this man S type, IN
fortunately, but there are enough OF them to
keep the labor movement from going over the
preeipiee into bolshevlsm. W. A. Appleton Is
an English labor leader whose standing with or
ganiZed labor cannot be questioned, since he
was elected only a few months ago, at the Am
serdam conference, as president OF the Fedora
ton of Trade Unions of the World, and holds
that place now. He gave out statement re
Gently In which he spoke very plainly about the
radical efforts to bedeVil the government and
involve the whole industrial situation in CON
fusion. He said
The tragedy which threatens overwhem
Britain proceeds in regular fashion fash Gradgany,
upon the people IN the expectation that misery
may advance revolution and exalt the demagogues
who would become antocrats
1t is no anaiyzing intentions nation
faced with strangulaton can only deal with er-
fects and the effects the propaganda which these
revolutionarfes have fathered are eliminating in
The friends OF the really responsible for
the troubles in the mines and on the railways and
in the docks may argue that all of them are atrt'
lists but to the average it very much
as if their altrusm was fos abroad and not for
that they have brought English industry into peri
lous circumstances and British workmen TO the
certainty of grave suffering and possibly starya
ton.
Faced with restriction of output of coal and
an inefficient and costly system of railways, faced
daily with sporadic strikes, what will the govern
1nent do? What will the nation do? The answer
to the first question is easier to find than that OF
the second. The government will do what it has
been doing since Mr. Asquith gave his fatuous ad
vice follow prices with wages. 1t will temper
ize in the Micawbean hope OF something turning
Salvation lies now, always, with the nation
Upon the in which il faces the situation
everything depends. Each individual must accept
his own share of responsibility and perform his
task
The flooding of mines and the cessation of work
On railways destroys wealth and rots food. 1t is
useless talk Of taxing wealth which chicanery
and folly destroyed of enjoying food which
unreasoning railway men have left perish.
Every man and and child in Britain will
have to pay the past and current weeks fol-
lies and the poorest will most because they
will pay actual suffering, while the we'll paid will
only incur the disadvantages of straitened cir
cumstances.

It is said to be an open secret IN washington
that the message read at the opening OF the
present session of congress was not written by
Mr. Wilson but was the joint work of Supreme
Cont Justice Brandeis, man known as Inter

of contradictory assertions that appear through
ont the document are, no doubt, thus to be ac
counted for.

AN EMOTIONAL ELEMENT.

We appear to have moved long way from
the proposition and position that we as ma
ton were too proud to fight, for the new con
tention now is that we ought as matter OF duty
to take hand in every fracas that breaks OUT
anywhere on earth. Many excellent citizens
are converted to this new view and favor CIV
ing the council Of a league OF nations wnat
amounts to a blank check signed by trustfui
Uncle Samuel and power of attorney to put
America into action III any dispute that may
arise.
When it is recalled that every president from
Washington to Wilson has driven home to the
hearts of our people the fundamental American
principle of refraining from lnterlneddlng III
the affairs of Europe and restraining Europe
from meddling with ours, it Is clear that there
i an emotional element among US to Wnoin the
wisdom of five generations of Americans IS
,foolishness to be scornfully cast aside.
The American Legion is out to Danish the
lsswork slacker'' By this term Is meant the
man who does not really want a job but masks
this desire to dodge work under plea that ne
icannot get one The Legion proposes first to
see that men out of work are given opportunity
Ito 90 to work at decent wages; then to.see TO
it that these men do go to work or else are pat
under some compulsion to move on to some
other community and condition in which they
will work How much of present unemploy-
,nant is due to work slackerism is not known,
lint it is evident there is more work needing to
he done the land over than there are workers
to do it.
