(The Bard of Bittinger has written

following is considered worthy of at
tention by critics.-E Editor The Re-

One ship goes east and one goes west
With the self same wind that blows;
IT'S the set of the sail, and not the
gale,
That settles which way she goes.
So with each life, in this world of
strife,
Though the tides run high or law;
IT'S the style of your pluck and not
your luck,
That brings you veal or woe.

WON'T MD BLACK
SEA BLOCKADE
invitation of England and France
Rejected by U. S.
BEATING COMING TO WRAN GEL
State Department Issues Statement
Saying U. S. Has Never Taken
Part in Any Movement
Against the Soviets.

Washington. Nov. 2.-An invitation
from England and France to partici-
pate in the blockade of the Black sea
ports in the interests of General
Wrangel, the anti-BOlshevist leader,
has been rejected by the United States,
1t was announced by the State depart
ment
Not only has the United States de-
clined to permit its ships now at Con-
stantinople to assist, but it has cabled
to Admiral Bristol, the American COM
missioner at Constantinople, desiring
to know at whose instance the block
ade was ordered, against whom it is
directed and for what purpose it was
begun. Belief is expressed here that
the blockade is to help General Wran-
gel, who is reported to be in severe
straits as a result of huge offensive
now being directed against him by the
soviet armies. The State department,
however, is without information on
that point.
One Ship Held Up.
At least one Italian merchant ship
has already been held up by Brit
ish cruiser. A representative from the
Italian embassy called at the State de-
partment and gave formal notice that
Italy is opposed to the blockade on the
ground that it is illegal and contrary
TO the demands of humanity, and that
1t is in violation of the interallied
agreement with regard to trade with
Russia
This position, it is understood, is
practically shared by the United
States. The State department point
ed out that all restrictions between
the United States and soviet Russia
have been removed and that any Amer
lean is privileged to conduct trade who
cares to do so.
May Enter Vigorous Protest.
Hence if it should develop that the
blockade was instituted for the pur-
pose of shutting off trade between So
Wet Russia and other countries such
as Italy and the United States, it is
likely that this country will enter Wig
orOus protest on the side of the Ital-
ian government An official of the
State department said:
"The United States has never taken
part in a movement against the soviet
government on the contrary, we have
opened up trade and any one who
wants to trade with them has the priv.
ilege of doing So"

Savannah, Nov. 3.-Negro women

Norway has hundreds of mighty water
falls from which an enormous aggregate
of electric power is obtained. This gives
Norwegian manufacturers important ad-
vantages for it supplies an abundance of
power at low cost and practically assures
a monopoly in industries requiring large
quantities of electric current, such as the
fixation of atmospheric nitrogen, the pro-
duction of aluminium, etc. In the past few

TRUTH, THE BASIS OF LIFE
CONTINUED from page l.


The fruit of this knowledge is, as it
were, gift of the Gods; it is the truth"
that makes men free, not only free from
every lack and Limitation, but free from
sorrow, worry and care, and, is it not
wonderful to realize that this law is no
respecter of persons, that it makes no diff
ference what your habit of thought may
be the way has been prepared.
With the realization that this mental
power controls and directs every other
power which exists, that it can be culti-
waited and developed, that no limitation
can be placed upon its activity, it will be-
come apparent that it is the greatest fact
in the world, the remedy for every i'll,
the solution for every difficulty, the graft
fcation of every desire, in fact that it is
the Creators magnificent provision for
human emancipation.
Like most individuals, you find that you
have reached the borders of the Promised
Land, and still hold husks of the swine
herd that Fear has thrust into your hands,
knowing we'll that these alone will keep
you standing without until the feast is
over and done. But recognition of the
need of the meat of the kingdom, and a

you within sight of the mansion. This
modicum of insight is the impetus or

SO you persue your journey and pass on.

Said to me, be firm,
Turn not to the old wrong.

Cause life to be song.
Said l to me, be glad,
Cause the dark clouds will pass,
And sweet times may be had,
With the poor and good class.
Said l to me, choose love,
For hate is in the way,
Choose the good to speak of
And keep old Nick at bay.
Said 1 to me, think right
That each act may be pure,
For thoughts dark as the night,
Will spoil the mind, Pm sure.

AUTUMN

Summers days are dying
AS autumn's glory spreads;
l hear the soft breeze signing
Where the asters lift their heads.
The lovely stately maple trees
Now change their summer frocks
And each mischievous lazy breeze
Tosses the corns bright locks.
In every hidden wayside shrine
Some autumn Aowerlet strays,
Each lazy bee doth here recline,
'Tis here the cricket plays.
The beauty of the goldenrod
AS she lifts her golden head,
Reflects the handiwork of God
In autumn's glorious spread.

beats on my heart
Like a brazen hammer with terrible blows,

boyhood,
Filled with the scent of the rose.
And sometimes, when the clamor of life
seems endless
And my soul is bowed with its weight of
pain

AT the end of hawthorne lane.
Oh, do not smile at such simple memories
They keep us young, they keep the man.

And sometime we will all go back con-
