you are for time befogged in A sea OF

that the tramp you are IN quest OF is various

in the dictionaries have permeated the
consciousness of the American people,
and have found vivid exp rsssion in the

The hobo himself, however, thinks
that great injustice is thus done him.
In particular, he resents being called a
tramp. Between the two terms there is,
it appears, q nice distinction, which was
drawn the other day for the enlighten-

A Deserved Rebukc.

Even partssanship, we incline to believe
will not deprive Secretary of the Navy
Danielw of credit for the manly and com
plete manner in which he rcbuked Admiral
Sims for his disparaging references to our
navy in testimony before Congress
committee There is no doubt Admiral
Sims himself, in time, will come to deeply
regret his carping. even malicious, COM
ments upon the work OF the navy, so
patiently undeerved
To the average citizen IL will appear
that Admiral Sims was piqued because
he was not permitted to have his own
way In directing our naval operations IN
European waters. Also there Is an utter
lack of approval Of what he announced as
his way in respect of operatlons-the
withdrawal of submarine chasers from
convoy service to engage in active war
against German submarines. Both ser
vices were of great Importance, but the
prime necessity was TO safely convoy

THE BLAME.


When Walter Notanickle fell in love
with Mabel Lee,
Her parents said: Good heavensl Such a
match can never bel
This young man is beneath her; he'd
disgrace our family name;
To have him for a son-in-law would be
lasting shame"
So they promptly said TO Mabel she must
choose another spouse,
And they ordered all the servants not To
LET him IN the house.
Now Walter Notanickle heard the orders
and he said:
Though the old folks do not like me,
its not them | want To wed;
They can think up names to call me til
their brains are In a whirl,
But they'll wake up some fine morning
and they'll find I've got the girl. !"
And fair Mabel said TO Walter: Spite
of all my parents say,
i will take YOU for my husband" So one
night they ran away.
Mabel ats at night
And sadly realizes that her parents had
It right,
For Walter Notaniclkle has turned out To
be no good
And is treating pretty Mabel as her father
said he would;
And the old folks sit in sorrow, and they
say that it's q shame,
But they never think one minute that for
this match they're to blame.

Americans into France. What Of IT,?
President" dc Valera tells us that those
for whom he speaks wished for the triumph
Of the armies against whom we were
fighting. We. denied ourselves that we
might send food and ammunition TO
France. If he could have ha his way,
not an ounce of it would have reached her
shores. Rather it would have gone 10

Yes. Politics. Do real Americans have

SELF HELP.

Individuals, communities, states and
governments do not need much help
from others, but they need TO learn how
to help themselves Adversely in a blessing
If it teaches the victim how to help him
self. Development of initiative not only
often helps one over the hill he is climb
ing, but gives him ability to climb other
and larger hills. The so-called tough luck
is often a godsend when it gives one a
better knowledge of his own resources and
teaches how he may put them to better
use.
The city Of Chicago has recently given
an illustration of what a community may
do when it uses its own powers to help it
self in time of trouble. The city had a
crime wave. Holdups, robheries, burglaries,
safe-cracking and other forms of crime
developed with great rapidity. The city
did not ask new laws, made no criticism
of officials: it just helped itself. The police
rounded up all the ioafers IN the resorts
Of vice and looked them over They brought
