Ripping Rhymes
By WALT MASON
Sleep.
= go > **+++*% =

Sleep, balmy sleep, of which the
poet writes! with that in stock, sue
cessful are our nights. If man can't
sleep when to his couch he goes, If
he can't draw some hours of calm re-
pose, if midnight hours but fret him
and exhaust, his life is vain, his world
killing frost. He may have fame in
both the hemispheres; admiring men
may greet his nobs with cheers; the
welcome" sign may hang across
the street when he to pruneville turns
his princely feet; but all his honors
tawdy are and cheap, if night hours
come an dhe can'th go to sleep. He
amy have wealth heaped up and heap
ed again, his bins and vribs may
groan with iron men; he may have
yachts and stately parks and grounds,
and hunting steeds on which to ride
to hounds, but such possessions have
no worth or charm, life is failure
and false alarm, if sleep won't come
when he retires to bed, while hours
drag on with weary feet of lead.
While | can sleep / envy no ones
luck; the millionaire can keep his
snowy buck; the statesman great may
revel in his fame, all shining marks
can play their lustrous game; sleep
the night through like man, and
rise at dawn to do the best | can.

WILLIAM OSWALD'S DISCOVERY
By Edgar A. Guest.

ny A&BOA 80 S
When William Oswald Effingham
was Dor nhis parents said
There never was a child before with
such noble head.
With pardonable modesty they raved
about his worth
And called their precious little tot
the cutest babe on earth.
As William Oswald alder grew his
folks more loudly raved,
Before his face they praised to all
the way that he behaved,
They told the clever Thugs he did,
repeated all he said
Until at last they had completely
turned the youngsters head.
Because he heard his parents brag
about hi mday and night,
He got to thinking that he was the
brightest of the bright.
He didn't seem to notice when they
gave him his degree
That ninety other fellows shared his
brilliant company.
At last into the world he went in
search Of gold and fame,
And was shocked to find that no one
seemed to recognize his claim
1t troubled hi mand grieved him and
it left hi mmuch depressed,
To discover no one though him any
better than the rest.
Now he knows that there are others
who can do what he can do;
That some know everything he knows
with something added too.
And he tells his foolish parents when
they boast of him at night,
That the world is full of people who
are marvelously bright.

THE PUZZLED HUNS
BY James J. Montague.

They only wanted Belgium, and
scant two-thirds Of France
Perhaps hundred miles or so be-
yond their Marine advance
They merely wanted all the cash that
Paris had in bank
To portion out among their Gratis and
other men Of rank.
They had no hunger for revenge
these simple, kindly Boche
Would just have hanged a few big
men--like Clemenceau and Foch.
For all the paltry spells Of war their
appetite was small
And now they've lost they cannot see
why they should pay at all.
OF course they might have used some
ports like Liverpool and Brest
AS targets for their warships when
they held schutzenfest.
They might have seized the allied
fleet-but only as means
Of making safe the future os their
supersubmarines,
And also to lombard such towns as
seemed little lax
In coming promptly over with bill
lion dollar tax.
Such magnanimity was theirs that
roundly they condemn
The conquerors who rudely plan to
make demands of them!
They meant to dominate the earth"
but only to secure
For all the people on its face the
blessings of Kultoor;
And no one could object to kings of
such restraint and poise
And nobleness of bearing as those
Hohenzollern boys.
Six such great-hearted potentates
have never yet held sway,
Not even one--that we recall--at
least since Nero's Gay.
And now instead of treating them
with homage and respect
The allies ask indemnities-and
swear that they'll collect!
AS for us Yankees, they assert that
we should not forget
Theat they were planning to annex
the U. S. Aust yet
They meant to let us go along and
jog the same old gait
Till we were educated for a model
German state;
Till Deutschland Ueber Allies" was
the only song we sung
And haben-gewesen-habts tripped
lightly from each tongue,
And we--for whom they'd planned
all this, insist that they come
through
With what they owe for what they've
done! You bet your life we do
