LOSS AND GAIN

I'd like to be boy again, care-free
prince OF JOY again,
I'd like to tread the hills and dales
the way used TO do;
I'd like the tattered shirt again, the
Knockers thick with dirt again,
The ugly, dusty feet again that long
ago | knew.
I'd like to play first base again, and
Sliver's curves TO face again,
ia like to climb, the way | did, u
friendly apple-tree;
For, knowing what | do today, could
not wander back and play,
I'd get full measure OF the JOY that
boyhood gave to me-
Ia like to be lad again, a youngSter,
wild and glad again,
I'd like to sleep and eat again the
way | used TO do;
I'd like 10 race and run again, and
drain from life It's fun again,
And start another round of JOY the
moment one was through.
But care and strife have come TO me,
and often days are glum TO me,
And sleep is not the thing It was
and food Is not the same;
And have sighed and known that |
must journey on again TO sigh,
And have stood at envy's point
and heard the voice of shame.
I've learned that joys are fleeing
things; that parting pain each
meeting brings;
That gain and loss are partners here,
and SO are smiles and tears;
That only boys from day TO day can
drain aud fill the cup OF play;
That sge must mourn for what is lost
throughout the coming years,
But boys can not appreciate their
priceless Joy until too late,
And those who own the charms
had, will soon be changed tC
men;
And then, they too will sit, as | ant
backward turn to look and sigf
And share my longing, vain, TO be |
care-free boy again.

To Disregard the Law"

In juggling with the State Game laws
the last Legislature, by some muddle or
other. left them in such shape that they
prohibit the shooting of rabbits in Della
ware this year. This prohibition has in
cited considerable indignation among
sportsmen, and TO remedy the situation, 1T
is said, "the State game wardens have
agreed to disregard" the provision that
would make the coming season closed
one.
This is most surprising; even astound-
ing. What right have officers entrusted
with the administration of a law to disre-
gard any Of its provisions? They have no
such right; they do not haye even dis
cretion in the matter.
When it is deliberately agreed that
public officials shall disregard the law
they are appointed to enforce. and sworn
to enforce, how many ordinary citizens
may be expected to have proper respect
for any law7 1t is not the duty of public
officials to correct, by dereliction in duty,
the muddling mistakes of stupid Legis-
latures. It is for them to enforce the spirit
and letter of the laws as they find them,
leaving corrections of mistakes or cor
rection of manifest blunders to the law
making authority.

HAVING 1T BOTH WAYS.

Governor Cox's attack was 10 unex-
pected by the Republicans that they
were not at first sure which one of their
fianks he had struck. He had really
struck and crumpled up both their fianks.
But they seek 10 make defense, now
on this wing, now on that Senator
New sallies forth to declare that the gov
ernor's words about the League are so
weak and ambiguous as to be pltlful.
But ut the same time a member OF the
Republican National Committee hurries
to the front toaffirm that Mr.. Cox's adj
hesion to the League IS so uncompromls-
ing that he must be fought off at all
hazards This uncertain sound of the
Republican trumpet is nowhere more con-
spicuous-or, we may add, more laughable
-than@ in its party press OF this city.
Here is what theITribune said: .'Those
who expected Governor Cox to speak
out concerning the League cherished a
vain hope. His three-eolumn contribu-
ton does not contain single plain and
unequivocal declaration. But of the
same part of the governors speech the
Sun writes: This is explicit and specific.
1t is conamendable for its directness and
candor. 1t is admirable for its unqualified
commitment
Well. the Republicans cant have it
both ways They can't shout III the
same breath that Governor Cox is a
crawling evader and also a bold defer.
Which is it, gentlemen? You will find that
you must agree among yourselves what the
battle-cry is to be before you can with
any hope of success call out to youl
puzzled followers: Nov then, all to.

WILSON, OR LENINE2

Last year the world had chance to
choose between Lenine and Wilson, with
the odds on Wilson. That choice was lost
when the treaty was defeated in the Sen
ate.
Since then the issue has been increas-
ingly between the, renascent imperialism
into which Europe has been drifting and
the internationalism of Lenine. Can it be
said that the odds are as strongly against
Lenine as they were before the League
of Nations was defeated in the Senate?
Let Mr. Wilson's opponents denounce
Lenine and Trotzky to their hearts con-
tent. 1t will not alter the fact that the
song of triumph chanted at Moscow over
the discontinue of 'eapitalism? is an ode
to the men who killed the Peace Treaty,
wrecked the League of Nations and made
the world what it is today.-Springfeld

PRESS COMMENTS.
THE BOY SCOUTS ABROAD.

One OF the most interesting Of the
world conventions of this year, 1920,
comes to a conclusion at the end OF
this week. The Boy Scouts lam
boree," held in London and attend
ed by Scout delegations from thirty
four countries, has been q great success
from whatever angle it may be viewed.
There are 3O1 boys from all over the
United States in the American delega-
ton, and, according to the reports that
have been coming across, the American
Scouts have been "doing things"
1t was down on the program that
every delegation should show some
thing and do something illustrative
Of the country from which the varl-
GUS delegations had come and illus
trative also of camping out life as each
particular delegation had experienced
it in the backbone country. The
American Scouts have been showing
the delegations from all over Europe
some real thing Red Indian camp life
with a few picturesque tonches that
the Red Indians never thought about.
They have even resurrected the Indian
war dance, which the good Indians
of this enlightened schoolhouse and
cow-barn era have almost forgotten.
Wnlie the JainDoTee piopei tios.'
at the end of this week, the entire Amer
lean delegation has been invited to visit
Paris and tour the region of the great
battlefelds as guests of the French
government. And then they are to go
to Belgium as guests of the Belgian
government and will probably be Mt
Antwerp at the time of the Olympic
games The time when they will take
ship for the homecoming voyage is not
yet certainly determined, though August
20 has been tentatively named as the
date.-Baltimore American.

A STRANGE CRUSADE.

It's going to be crusade rather than
a campaign, says the gentle voice of Mr.
VIII II. Hays Unlucky choice OF words,
Will For a crusade was always a rather
unselfsh proceeding, involving affairs
overseas and the joining of hands with
other nations. A crusade was certainly
an entangling alliance. Well, WELL And
in this crusade what part does the Lu-
bricating Leader play-iPeter the Hermit?
or Urbane the Second? or Godfrey of Cold
Bouillon?
But we perceive Will Hays is right. A
crusade, obviously, for the purpose
double-crossing the League. The object
of all the crusades. one remembers was

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkah. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle. and is very
harmful Mulsified cocoanut oil sham
poo (which is pure and entirely grease
lessl, is much better than anything else
you can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly iniure the hair
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich. creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and SCALP
thoroughly The lather rinses out easily,
and removes every particle of dust, dirt.
dandruff and excessive oil The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get Mulsihed cocoanut oil
shampoo at most any drug store. 1t Is
very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months.
