More Truth
Than, Poetry
By James J. Montague

THE PICTURES ON THE PANES.
When the autumn leaves are drifting
in the breeze that hurries by
Where the silent trees are outlined,
sharp and clear against the sky,
When the birds have all departed
save a lonely crow or tive,
And the brook CLEANS cold and
steely as it winds the meadows
through:
You can see beside the window
while the rosy twilight wanes
Troops of little furry fairies, paint
ing pictures on the panes.
Pictures of enchanted forests, filled
with wierd and spectral light
Every bough an arch Of jewels, every
blossom frosty white
Pictures of amazing cities such as
only fairies see
In the world beyond the rainbow
that is closed to you and me.
Pictures OF astounding creatures, un-
like any that we know
Birds with sparkling frosted feath-
ers. beasts built all of spotless
snow.
Wrapped in snug and cold proof
nantes to and fro the fairies
pass,
WELDING tiny skillful brushes on the
smooth and shining glass.
All night long their filmy forests and
slim lowered cities rise
Till the morning star is hanging like
a lantern in the skies.
Then they pack their paints and
vanish. and We'll speak for them
in vain
Till the sunshine Of tomorrow fades
their picture from the pane.
Oft we wonder as we waken from
some fascinating dream
OF a iewelled cob web forest and
slender silver stream
That we're sure that we remember,
where in this dull world of ours
We have ever CHANGED to wander
through such bright and flmy
bowers,
Never even half suspecting that we
saw them long ago
On the panes the fairies painted in
the winter twilight's glow.

present, which were not mentioned
during the evening"
And John don't forget 70 throw
the tickets over the door. and I'll be
there with my little old corn pepper
YOU bet. Better put some gum on the
tickets or tie on some other heavy
instrument for fear they Iaight get

Dir. John Zuver.
City.
Dear Sir:
see you are on the reception
committee for the Press club cab
aret next Tuesday night. so that
suppose you won't have any trouble
getting into the party for nothing.
but you are unique in this respect
because a lot Of other members are
going TO have II OF, a time gettin'
in. Take me for instants. had five
and a half all saved TO take my
family and suddenly it turned cold
right in the middle of November
and l had 10 buy a half dollars
worth OF egg size and it looks as If
I wasn't going TO be able 20 make
this big annual brawl OF the news
paper folks unless YOU help me with
a plan which I herein outline.
Next Tuesday night John after
YOU have gotten your woman and
your swaller tail past Manning and
into the hall, and have got your
children herded IN the check room
downstairs under lock and key.
couldn't you just kind OF toss your
complimentary tickets over the door
TO me. I'll be waitin' just outside the
door with a corn pepper so that I'll
be sure * catch them okay. You see
you'll be standing Just inside the en-
trance of the feed room y, mere the
reception. committee and Manning
always stands. You can hold the tic
kets in your hand and when you see
somebody coming in that you agree
with just make a wild gesture as II
you were glad 10 see them. raise
your arms at an angle and quietly
toss the tickets over expect our
little scheme will work fine unless
nobody comes in that you agree
with. which will leave me in a hole
what you might say
In this case I'll have myself PACED
in the feed room. and come in to
answer the bell hops call.
The cabaret this year is going to
be a find so 1 understand John and
there will be a big crowd there at
the tap of the gong on Tuesday
night. / am on the program but of
coarse there will also be a number
of other good acts. The biggest OBJ
stacle the committees and Bill Dun
kle have had to contend with this
year is TO fill in the time between
opening OF the main gate and the
starting of the show. In formerly
years, this time has been taken up
with a banquet but Abe Frank can
only afford TO serve what you might
call a lap lunch these days for three
bucks, so that the committee may
arrange to fill in with some hot dogs
on the side or have some member
read off a few of the menus like
they ust 10 serve in the old days be-
fore prohibition set in when the
boys didn't pay so much attention
TO what they ate

Ring Lardner and Jack Lait have
been invited 10 come to Tuesdays
party. Ring may come late, but
Jack likely won't be here on account
of South Bend having gone into the
dry columns by a gratifying plural
ity in the last election. IF Mr..
Lardner attends he will be asked 10
make a speech. This should be a
great drawing card and the mere
announcement will likely pack the
ball TO overlooking. Mr.. Lardner's
five word address before the Press
club in 1911 will long be remem-
bered. Doc Smith of the board Of

Another difficulty the committee
is facing is 20 prevent guests from
leaving the feed room after the
walters are through It's a sure
guess that some will still be hungry
and it would be mighty awkward TO
the committee If about IS would
walk out and go over 10 Kables for
awhile or go down and romp around
in the cash and carry until 1890 or
IL o'clock. Imagine how embarrass-
ed we would be if Fred BRYAN and
Fred Miller got a gnawing at their
vitals about s o'clock and walked
out on us and came back a couple of
hours later with a dozen hambur-
gers under their arm 10 pass around
at their table. 1t wouldn't look right.
This banquet is going 70 be radi
cally different from other local
food holdups this year; Nelson
Jones isn't going TO be toastmas-
ter. Sam Schwartz has kindly con
scented to act. as Mr.. Jones Is busily
engaged in getting out his annual
report on trained fish hounds and
performing beetles he has known.
Mr.. Jones will be present however.
but he will have his cutout closed
you might say. Mayor Carson is go
ing to be there, but the committee
hasn't planned anything rough on
him like they did on Mayor Keller
one year. Carson hasn't done any
thing since he came into Office, or
at least nothing that we could make
laffs over and Of coarse them there
old bull pen jokes have gotten
threadbare from constant use just
like the policemen have got the key
10 the bull pen looking like a ladies'
hairpin from constant use. So the
mayor will be there -incoGnito. but
ne won't be poked fun at, if the
committee has their way about IT.

AFTERMATH OF WAR

Edward Shlegelmelch, who went
overseas with the Eighty-tifth division
arrived hmoe last week with his dis
charge. He saw service in the st
Mihiel drive and suffered wound in
the right hand which kent him in a
hospital three months.
DR.. Odin Vida, in the dental corps
with the army of occupation in Ger
many, has been promoted to major
| He is stationed at Paleha.
Private Harold Hanson, the fifth OF
six Hanson brothers. in the service
to return arrived home with his dis
charge last week. He had seven
months service with a surgery de-
tachment in the Toul sector and was
close to the actual warfare all the
time The only brother still in the
service, Delmar Hanson, is at the
Great Lakes station.
Three of the largest transports were
en- route to America last week with
boys of the 85th division, largely Wis
consin and Michigan boys and large
numbers of local soldiers may soon
be expected. Those not detained for
hospital treatment will probably
shortly receive discharges at nearby
cantonments.
Joseph Staalson, whose induction in
to the military service seriously Grip.
pied the Pilot staff, arrived home this
week, wearing gold chevrop indicat
ing over six months overseas service.
He was in camp on this side many
months and crossed over with the lllth
Field Artillery, 29th division. He
never got into the fighting but was
with the troops uuder orders to attack
the Metz forts when the armistice was
signed November llth.
Last week relatives of John Stephen
son OF Liberty received letter from
comrade of Johns relating that he
was killed ia action on September 2S,
1918; that his pocket bible bearing his
name had been picked up on the bat
tie field. The last heard from him had
been letter dated September 25th.
The war department has 40 record of
his having been killed or wounded.
Capt. Charles Anderson who left
this city TO attend the first officers
training camp at Fort Sheridan nearly
two years ago, is back in America, and
is expected here in about week. Re
went overseas with trench mortar
ba ttery.

SPRING ELECTION

The spring campaign certainly liv-
Aened up before the finish. The Social
Il lists imported Mayor Daniel Hoan OF
milwaukee last Thursday. He had a
L hall full at the Orpheum. He talked
about an hour, mostly on the packers
and their alleged sins. 1t wasn't even
a good Socialist speech. He urged the
people to vote for Socialist candidates
for the aid it would give to the pres
tige of the party throughout the
country. Candidate for mayor, Georg-
enson spoke briefly and was distinct
disappointment. Two years ago he had
an issue and was full of fire. This time
he had nothing to tain about and he
fioundered around pitiably trying to
|create an issue by petty fault-finding
The meeting was fizzle.
Saturday Mr.. l.. M. Kotecki, Mil
waukee comptroller, made ringing
|anti-socialist speech to big crowd at
|Zboralsh's in the Seventh ward.
Monday evening Mayor Schroeder
and John Healy addressed a meeting
lat Liberty hall on Polish hill and the
same evening Mr.. Schroeder and A. l..
|Hougen spoke to a fair sized crowd at
the Opera house. Hougen stripped
Socialism bare and after drawing a
horrible word picture of it asked if
we were to turn out business admin
istration to give this thing prestige.
The fight for two city school offices
developed into a scrap of dodgers and
space. John Kelley sprung
a sensation by declaring for a high
school in the Third ward

CITY COUNCIL NOTES

The council met in special session
last Friday evening
The big business was definite action
for new bridge at Tenth street. A
sketch of the proposed new bridge has
been on exhibition in a downtown
show window. 1t is two-leaf bascule
bridge and one the city may well be
proud of. The city engineer has been
on work on plans for the piers up
river to which the old Tenth street
structure will be moved as soon as
things are in shape to begin work on
Tenth street. The formal resolution
now adopted was upon request of the
U. S. war department which has not
approved the plans.
At the special meeting the city at
torney was instructed to look into the
recent decision of the Supreme court
reducing street car fares at La Crosse
and to take steps necessary to get the
decision in that case applied here If
possible.

LAKE SHORE ROAD

The interurban trolley line was
last week moved six feet further from
the lake where it skirts the edge of
the lake bank just beyond the Little
Manitowoc. For years the edge of the
ties have been out of the bank and the
thing never looked safe. The driveway
on this mile or more Of unimproved
road is like the pictures one sees of
roads before taking" in paving ad-
vertisements, only worse. 1t has been
impossible. To build four or five
miles of concrete highway and then
leave a mile or so of connecting link
of deep, sticky clay for years Is a
business proposition that bewilders
those unfamiliar with governmental
red tape,
