Poets and Pourboire

D OBERT BRIDGES has been getting
~ f1O0 a year as British poet laureate,
and the matter has now become the subject
of inquiry in the House Of Commons. 1t is
complained that Mr.. BrdgCs's muse has
been loaing. Where. people in England
are saying. is tho ode on victory, the paean
on peace. that the defrauded British public
had right to expect? And some parlia-
mcntary wags even go so far as to suggest
that in lieu of the hundred Qnid the old
custom be revived of giving the laureate
butt of canary wine. This, they say. might
purge the tSciturn poet of his silent humor
and set him singing like Il mayis. And they
pretend to cast Sleeps eyes back at the
Ndays of jolly old All Tennyson, who was
always ready with n ditty. fresh baked for
instantaneous release as soon as any big
event came kissing over the wires.
All of which We dcplorc. Mr.. Bridges
is too good poet to be hccklcd in this
way. If he has been dragging down n hun
drcd Quid without writing any poems for ii.
bravo for him. Mighty few poets ever
succeed in getting the better of the little
brass grill. During the course of the war
Mr., Bridges did one thing for which all men
who love beauty arc perpetually his debtors:
hr compiled the lovcliest anthology in the
English language (it is called THE Spirit of
Man. and it would do any sodden heart
good to refer to it, and as one of the hum
hlcst Of his fellow workers We protest
against these lowbrows in the House of
Commons trying to hustle him into turning
out copy before he feels the dcmiurge bump
ing round in his skull.
As for that butt of capary, he ought to
hav" it anyway, in addition to the f1O0.
Poets get far too little pourborc nowadays.
If the House of Commons doesn't look out
it will budget poetry right out of exist
encC.
What a boost for the airplane business
if the government should decide to own the
railroads. And think of the simple hearted
exultation of Henry Ford.
1t is said that the railroads need more
economical management. In that case we
would suggest for director general the al
ready famous individual who runs three
motorcars on the slack of $50 week pay
envelope
Hard cider contains as much as per cent
alcohol. and our Chester county correspond
ont assures us that a brass footrai is being
installed in the famous cider mill on the
West Chester pike.
We confidently expect to see number
of apple trees condemned to penal servitude

The death Of three
CarcIeSsness boys following an cX-
Somewhere plOsion Of dynamite in
local stone quarry
sharply draws attention to apparent laXlty
in storing tho explosive. Boys will be boys
and nQuistivcness is boyish attribute.
Undoubtedly the youngsters had no right to
enter the Toulouse where the stuff was
stored but death is too great a penalty
for II childish indiScroton. and the men
who made such an indiscrction possible are
morally responsible for the tragedy.
