Through the Valley

As 60 through the valley all alone
Though many walk beside me and before
And many may follow, yet alone is
each),
hear low voices in an undertone,
Striving on wounded human hearts to
The balm and solace of Celestial speech.
So long it seemed blurred, unmeaning
sound,
But now l grasp its import-tense, pro-
found
As 60 through the valley.
AS 60 through the valley. whose deep
streams
Are fed by tears that flow from human
eyes
(Those rivers without bridges to the
Save as we build them of our fragile
dreams),
see an Arch of Triumph dimly rise,
Through which my shadowed path
will wind at last.
The Voices whisper, ''Just beyond that gate
The souls you hunger to behold await,
Ash 60 through the valley.
AS 60 through the valley. life makes clear
Three radiant truths like torches for my
mind:
The road to knowledge is the road of
prayer.
The tranquil heart creates the listening ear.
God tells his secrets but to souls resigned.
So, patiently upon my way fare,
With emptied pitcher moving on my course,
Knowing that shall fill it at the Source,
As 60 through the valley.

My Bank Roll

Little bank roll ere we part,
Let me hug you to my heart.
All the year I've clung to you,
I've been faithful, you've been true;
Little bank roll, in day
You and / will 60 away
To gay and festive spot;
I'll come home but you will not.

The Spirit Legion

The vague white wind
That blows in gusts
From men who are dying,
From armies long dead,
Has touched our shores
And stirred our banners
Where all eyes were heavy
And all hands numb.
Forms we watched
So easily striding
To meet adventure
Beyond strange seas
Return in vision
Stern, importunate,
Judging, demanding
The asking dead.
Burned free, burned clear
Of wrath or envy,
In spirit rising
From ash and fame,
Young ghosts come back
With grave, keen faces
To view our profits,
To question the end,
They will shrivel old oaths,
They will char old treaties,
The old ways shall wither
Under perceant eyes;
As we love them dead
Will they cleanse US living;
We shall feel their lightning
Though blind, long blind.

Shine Just Where You Are

Don't waste your time in longing
For bright, impossible things.
Don't sit supinely yearning
For the swiftness of angels wings;
Don't spurn to be a rushlight
Because you are not a star,
But brighten some bit of darkness
By shining just where you are.
"There is need of the tiniest candle,
AS well as the garish sun;
The humblest deed is ennobled
When it is worthily done;
You may never be called to brighten
The darkened regions afar;
So fill, for the day, your mission,
By shining just where you are.''

Try This
A little dash of water cold,
A little leaven of prayer,
A little bit of sunshine gold,
Dissolved in morning air,
Add too your meal some merriment,
Add thought for kith and kin,
And then as a prime ingredient
A plenty of work thrown in,
Flavor it all with essence of love
And little dash of play;
Then nice old book and glance

Complete the happy day.
Sig: Take daily and repeat.

CITY MAIL DELIVERY FOR
PINEHURST AND VICINITY

City delivery service will be extended
tomorrow by the Washington city post
Office to the residents Of Pinehurst. and
that section lying Immediately east Of
Chevy Chase. This section hitherto has
been getting rural delivery once a day
Beginning tomorrow residents in the
section named will get two deliveries Of
mail a day and all parcel pest privileges.
This extension Of the service has been
looked forward to by the city post Office
for more than a year.
Expansion of the U street postal sta
ton to a carrier station. with seventy
letter carriers working directly from
that station. was postponed by the city
post ofice today until Monday. The
carriers were to have been transferred
from the main city post Office tomeefow.
1t was decided that the transferral to-
morrow would involve too much work
on the part Of the carriers, since the
mail on the first Of the month is always
Tremendously heavy. BY bostponing the
opening of the station as a carrier sta
ton to Monday the carriers will have
all Sunday to get their desks in readi-
ness for the opening.

Uncertain Quantities Loom.

But. while there is much talk Of
ness men, politicians. male and fe-
male, whose opinions were obtained
seemed to be absolutely unable to
say what their respective regions
would do in the primary or electoral
campaigns. Two big uncertain guam
titles loom up-labor and the woman
vote.
Movements inside the parties rather
than the rise and fall of individual
candfdacies, are interesting now. The
women Of sthe west unquestionably
are for the league Of nations. and
presidential candidates who. cannot
show a good record on that subject
Is articulate now in strikes and in
dustrial warfare, but any candidate
whose attitude on industrial ques-
tions Is suspected of being friendly
to a reduction of excess profits taxes
or to big business generally may
centers of the east. but in the west
and among the rank and-file workers
of the country he might as we'll ex-
pect defeat.
My observations and analysis on
this trip lead me to believe that the
west not only may decide our next
presidential election again, but that it
may ludhc uccp luTOduS upon Iu0 east.
The desire for a third party is en-
countered here and there, but it is
not pronounced, because no leader ap-
pears who can start or organize such
movement.
On the other hand. western repub-
licans think they can reform the re-
publican party on the inside better
than they can on the outside. The
important thing to bear in mind is
that the leadership Of eastern re-
publicans in the Senate has made the
west much more of a. doubtful guam
tity than it was three months ago.
The republican party still has the
greater opportunity, provided It be-
comes the truly progressive party Of
the country. but the democrats, with
their inclination to radicalism, have
the same chance to win the liberal
strength beyond the Mississippi. The
west is waiting the outcome of the
next few months Of strife over social
and industrial and moral questions to
determine which Of the two old Do
litical parties viii be the lesser Of two
evils by November, 1920.

Talk Of Candidates Persists.

Talk Of Candidates Persists.
Talk of candidates persists every

ment in favor of any one man has
| come to the surface in any consid-
[ cradle area Of our political map. In
think very highly of Leonard Wood.
Today there is still much talk of him
for President, but other candidates
seem to.-have taken the stage and
| split up what was at one time fair
ly uniform sentiment. The idea that
has been fostered by the friends of
candidates who are rivals of Gen.
Wood! And when Gen. Pershing
., came home, he, too. got little atten-
ton as political possibility for the
same reason.
Without attempting to say what
sentiment will be six weeks or a
month from now, 1 should say that
Herbert Hoover's unostentatious re-
turn from abroad, coupled with his
straightforward statement that he
wasn't a candidate for President and
would not become one. made a hit
with western folks, who promptly set
about thinking about him for Presi-
dent. just as they used to every time
Justice Hughes told some state that
intended to put his name on the bal
lot that he was not candidate and
did not wish to be voted for in the
primaries.
Gossiping About Hoover.
&c. of all the returning candidates
Mr.. Hoover's returning remarks have
set political gossips-democrats and
republicans-talking of the former
food administrator. But they do not
know to what political party he be-
longs. He is a business man type,
which makes 1t appear probable that
he is republican: but he supported
the President in his appeal for a DEM
ocratic Congress and Is enthusiastical-
ly for the league of nations. Thus
he has. at least, made Of himself a
non-partisan figure. He Is a Cali
fornfa progressive, with q tendency
to be as radical as the times demand.
On the other hand, he is not a good
speaker or campafgner, and, 80 far as
the party politicians go. he knows
nothing of the art Of political mix
ing and hates the processes by which
men get delegations to support them
at political conventions.

Ireland. Also the Italian vote Is
counted on to be largely republican
on account Of the Fiume controversy.
Large bodies Of Czechoslovaks and
Poles are likely to support the demo.
cratic ticket in appreciation of Mr..
Wilson's efforts in behalf Of their
former homes.
But votes Of antagonism are much
more apt to remain than votes Of ap-
probation and the Czechoslovaks and
Poles may become part after all of the
general tide of the labor vote, while
the Irish voters who have a grievance
against the democratic party may
wreak vengeance for the accusations
of hyphenatism tossed their way by
the President. The danger to the
democrats is that many Of their party
workers are Irish sympathizers and

tions in many states because of Mr..
Wilson's attitude.

"You son-of-a gun!" said Louise Huff
to Ernest Truck, as she handed him a
broom. Get out of that chair and put
on this cap and apron or I'll take away
your allowance for a month! How dare
you leave this room in such a cond-
ton, you lazy, lazy son-of-agun!" and
although the crowd outside couldn't
hear what Louise said, they cheered
and shouted and pressed forward until
they threatened to break in the great
window in Aeolan Hall, where this
scene from ooh, You Women" was be-
ing filmed.
1t was fun, being a part of the crowd
which was furnishing the entertain
ment to draw the crowd to buy the
Liberty bonds, and we never realized
quite so clearly the lure of the movie
star. Thousands of people tried to get
in front Of that window, and we saw
nice, dignified women, with burnt os
trich in their hats, who looked as
though, they had husbands and children
uptown, wrestling with the soldiers.
whose painful duty it was to protect
the huge window. They fixed their
bayoncts in front of the glass and said
"They shall not pass!"
We, meaning Anita Loos and Frances
Marion and myself, were seated on u

urged John Emerson to remove his
coat; we removed ours without any
urging, and then Louise Huff walked
on and sprang her line about the "son-
of-a-gun."
Now Louise was stalling, because Mr..
Emerson hadn't given her any lines to
speak, and we were all convused as
she went on improvising! And then she
dumped Ernest out of the chair, pickle
up police Gazette" lighted ciga-
rette and sat down to enjoy herself.
1t was the first time she ever had
smoked cigarette, and if you knew
Miss Huff you would realize how funny
it was. She is such a dainty, pretty
little thing. ooh, Liberty! how many
crimes are committed in thy name"
And by and by, when no more people
could get on Forty-second Street and
the police reserves were called out
Dorothy Dalton went out to sell Lib
crty bonds to them and no one went
home. They all stayed to see Miss Dali
rton or to buy bonds, or both, and she
sold Uncle Sans Victory notes at the
rate of 81 900 worth minute. 1t was
a most satisfactory performance, and
we, had nice, virtuous feeling as
though we had done it ourscf.
And e<ery time the crowd showcd
signs Of fatigue, the sailor band playcC
or May Peterson sang "Thc Star

staged Il new scene from his new
picture.
And finally, ut O'Clock, everybody
who went out for luncheon came over

to Aeolian Hall instead, and the crowd
got so dense that no cars, motor or
surface, could pass, and the police re-
serves decided that it was time to do
something about it.
So Mr.. Emerson drew the big Star
Spangled Banner, which served as a
curtain, across the window and Louise
HUFF stopped smoking and Ernest Truck
took off his kitchen apron and John
Emerson put on his overcoat and
Anita Loos and Frances Marion put
on their Russian sables and we put
OIL our Russian sable and they rescued
Dorothy Dalton, and we all went over
to the Knickerbockcr for luncheon.
And it transpircd that Miss Dalton
had sold 100000 of Victory notes.
ooh, amt it grand and glorious
fceling!"
