ERE YOU LIE. DOWN TO. SLEEP

Ere youslie down to sleep in the night Sit still awhile, | And nurse again to life your gentler Self Forget the restless noisy spirit of the day.. And encourage to speech The soft voices within you that whisper Of the peace of the Great Still Night And occasionally look out at the quiet stars. The night will soothe you Like tender mother folding you Against her soft bosom, and hiding you From the harm of the world After the days struggle There is no freedom like unfettered thoughts : No sound like the Music of Silence. And though behind you Lies road of dust and heat And before you the fear of untried paths: In this brief hour J You are Master of all highways, , And the universe nestes in your Soul. Therefore, in the night Sit still awhile and dream awake Ere you lie down to sleep,

said about il from n critical standpoint

mass Of words with no concrete or

most serious complaint. 1t Is trite to
speak Of industrial unrest and social
conditions. the right 10 strike and the
right o: society 10 protect itself against

GENERAL LEONARD WOOD

General Leonard Wood scores first
b,ood in tho contest for the Republican
Presidential nomination. The action OF
South Dakota puts him distinctly in the
ever, strong sentiment for his candI-
dacy, which is likely to prove very en-
barassing 10 opposing aSprantS. In"
Wood candidacy seems 10 have back of
il. a large number Of influential. acttv"
and experienced public men. and per
hans. more potential than that. there IS
= weli-dcvclopcd sentiment, widespread
throughout the entire country.
II is \ remarkable fact that Of all the
men engaged IN the war on the part OF
, the United States. either wearing the
uniform. or in civil service, Leonard
! Wood has captured the Imagination Of
the American people. and more particu-
larry of the American soldier to great
! er degree than any other man. Yet he
! saw no active fighting. and was rele-
| gated to the rear by the jealousy OF
martiucts in tho War Department. HiS
soldierly conduct. under very irritating
conditions. and the splendid record ne
made nj various army camps. undoubt-
! edly impressed the American public to a
! very great degree. General Wood
! however. is more than 4 soldier. He
has proven himself to he capable ad-
ministrr,or and a far-SiGhtrd STUDENT
of public affairs. Among our public
men. particularly those connected with
the army. he was the first to recognize
: ID, defci,ncies Of our military orsani-
: cation. nnd devise some practical meth
, cd Of overcoming those deficiencies in a
measure.
While TIE American people admire
and respect General rershinS and the
many other gallant officers associated
! with him. and while no one belitties
their achievements in the least, We
; think IL is not unfair 10 say that Leon
ard Wood today speaks with greater
authority than any other man In the
! United States army. Present indica-
tons are that his candidacy will be Wig
, orously pushed by the capable men VINO
seem To have taken it in hand. and 1t
will not be surprising II it assumes
most formidable portions.
