Loves Dream
In the flower fields Of my soul
Where perfumy visions roll,
BY the God of love inspired.
In the days long pase acquired,
You float on celectial wings
Leading Heavens choir that sings
Loves old sweet song
Whose strains prolong
The harmony 1t brings.
Those love inspired dreams of you
God grant they may come true.
Give vigor to my weary heart
Which heavenly things alone impart,
They make brighter day
And light the trackless way
or the dark night
Making all bright
For Loves own future May.

Bending the Lid
The Echo de Paris is the paper of
the French capital that most clearly
and accurately voices the views and
desires Of premier Clemenceau. That
fact adds deep Significance to the
recent publication In that journal of
lengthy reports Of senate debates re.
necting rising hostility to the peace
efforts and ideas OF president Wilson.
Under the heading Of american Opin-
ION" the Echo gives prominence to
their special correspondent in Wash
Ington. Until the appearance OF these
Washington, dispatches Paris papers
have had almost nothing to say con.
corning public opinion in America.
Doubtless those in authority have
other means OF keeping informed of
the feeling prevalent in America. hut
of course the French public must de-
pend on the press for their informa.
tion. The Echo appears to have in.
augurated an intensive campaign Of
education among its readers to teach
thSm that Nh Wilson Ia not the
universal Idol Of Americans a. he
would have them believe.

by hand Marshall B. Lloyd, one of the
best known American machine inventors,
struggled many years over the task while
scores of others failed. Success has II

weave these fabrics thirty times faster
than the most skilled hand-worker can

gap of ages has been spanned in an in

Lloyd loom.
A machine is now en- route to Aus

heroes will be employed The facts that
physically deficient men can do the

the most efficient hand workers and that

aid it's wounded prompted the expendi-
ture of one-quarter OF a million dollars
