THE RED WOLVES.

They sought our shores as pilgrims
seek
A golden promised land.
From countries where strong tyrants
wreak
Their vicious wills upon the weak,
They sought our blessed strand.
From out its yoke each weary neck
Stretched toward kind freedoms
sun;
Where sceptered power would never
check,
Ambitions trend, nor try to wreck
A life so late begun.
Beneath the guiding arm
Of noble liberty,
They who had fled from vengeful
harm
Asked of our lands its gift of charm
And swift prosperity.
Today, like reptiles warmed and fed,
Upon us all they turn.
The flag they faunt is one of
dread
The hue of blood-aggressive red
And with mad hate they burn.
Hate-that their joys have multi
Piled;
Hate-that their souls are free;
Hate-that no chance has been de-
MED
For gaining honor, fame and pride
Here, where such chances be!
They sought our shores downcast,
forlorn,
And entered at our gate,
Each harboring the wish, unborn,
Our liberty, in time, to scorn,
Our land to desecrate.
Today, their purpose revealed
Their wretched schemes for power
To outraged justice they must yield
And know our land is not field
For Red Wolves to devour!

A FAMILY
MEDICINE
In Her Mother, Home, Says Thi,
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black
Draught. Relief From Head
ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.

Ringgold, Ca Mrs. Chas. CASTOR,
Of this place, writes: 81 am q user
Of Thedford's Black.Draught; in fact.
1t was one of our family medicines.
Also in my mothers home, when ]
was child. When any of us child
rem complained Of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave US
a dose of ack-Draught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chills. OF troubles of this kind. we
would take Black-Draught pretty reg
ular until tho liver acted well, and
We would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without It..
for 1t certainly has saved US lots OF
doctor bills. Just dose Of Black,
D-aught when not 80 well saves q
lot of days, in bed"
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
IN use for many years in the treat
ment of stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which It
now enjoys Is proof Of Its merit
If your liver is not doing its duty,
you will suffer from such disagree
able symptoms as headache, bilious
ness, constipation, indigestion, etc.,
and unless something Is done, serious
trouble may result.
Thedford's Black k.Draught has been
found q valuable remedy for these
troubles. 1t is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to It's proper
functions and cleansing the bowels Of
impurities. Try 1t. Insist on Thed.

FLIRTING WITH DEATH
Buying Liquor From BoOtleggers Is
Risky Business

Wood alcohol is causing many
deaths in America. Every day news
papers record tragedies of this char
acter, and all the victims are by no
means the riff-raff of society.
TO the ignorant there is no differ
ence between wood alcohol and grain
alcohol, yet one is deadly poison,
certain to produce blindness or death,
while the other is the basis of gen
uine whiskey. Opinions differ as to its
deleterious effects. Prohibition orators
have called it likewise poison, but
even in their widest flights of ora
tory they have not ventured to say
that its effects are so swiftly lethal as
those produced by wood alcohol.
Any man, or woman either, who
buys liquor from an itinerant bootleg
ger is running the risk of illness or
death. The bootlegger himself may
not know What he is selling, or he may
palm off any concoction for the profit
there is in it. The most astonishing
mixtures have been made and sold to
persons in quest of something with
"kick" in it, and the wonder is that
fatalities have not been more numer-
Gus.
If not already here, the time is
coming when the bootlegger and the
blind-tiger operator should adopt a
skull and crossbones as the symbol of
their Observation-Disclosures Age
Herald.

Big Increase in Wages

According to report issued last
week by B B. Hare, South Carolina
Field Agent of the bureau of crop
estimates, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, wages of male
farm labor have more than doubled
within the past five years.
Wages per month with board have
increased from $11.4O in 1915 to $27
in 1919; while wages per month,
without board, increased from $3.50
to $38.4O. In the meantime, wages
for day labor, for other than harvest
work, with board increased from
$3.50 to s1.6O per day, and without
board from SO.75 to $2.1O per day.
This means that wages for male
farm labor, when employed by the
month, not including board, was 143
per cent higher in 1919 than in 1915;
while wages for day labor without
board, in the meantime increased
180 per cent.
The estimated acreage of wheat in
the State sown to December l, was
10000 acres as compared with 208,-
900 acres the previous year. The
total acreage sown to rye was 49,
900 acres last fall as compared with
$4,000 acres sown the fall of 1918.
There appears to be an increase,
however, in the acreage sown as
cover crop.
The average number of cords Of
wood used per farm in 1919 was IA,
the value of same being estimated
at S4.40 per cord.

THE NEW BOOKS
.What Wilson Did at Paris,

Raw Stannard Baker, who had
charge of the press bureau of the Am
erican government at Paris during the
making of the Peace Treaty, is well
known as a writer on political SUBJ
jects. In hl most recent work, What
Wilson Did at Paris" he gives partic-
ularly accurate and important infor-
nation as to the actual difficulties OF
the Peace Conference and Wilson's
part in it. 1t is a work and a sub
ject of which the general public has
been in need.
Its chief value in the realm of con-
n .orary political writings is thai
it affords an insight into an affair
which has heretofore been shrouded
in mystery. The American people
have understood little of what was
done in Paris and this volume clears
the air to a great extent. The volume
makes no attempt to cover the con-
ference in detail. but merely under
takes to describe the work of our
President, the battles he fought, the
men he met and the principles he ad-
vOcated.
Particularly gratifying is Mr.. Bak-
er's clear analysis of the Japanese
question as it related to the Shantune
controversy. The volume might well
be termed a brief history of the
treary.
1T (the treaty. has in it all the un-
imaginative greeds, the fears. the
vanities. the petty interests of the
nations. II is indeed terribly naked
document; it makes one ashamed to
read it, for it lays bare SO brazenly
the very soul of modern civilization
and yet it has i'm it the finest aspira-
tiOns and hopes of the world; the be-
ginnings of a world league, the prin-
ciples of a new colonial policy, the
halting initiation of a new plan OF
adjustment between labor and capi-
tai. 1t is all there-just like life
for the new world to use as it will.
And the aspirations. the hopes. the
forward-looking, the moral aspects,
were all put there by our American
President-and no one else"
Mr.. Baker is a great admirer OF
President Wilson and the account is
in some points considerably preju-
diced, but he does not fail to give due

BLAMEs NEWSPAPERS FOR BIAS
/. N. Spencer Says. People Are
Thinking More for Themselves.


Thinking More for Themselves.
Biased misrepresentation is blamed
by l.. NJ. Spencer for the loss of pres
tige which he says the average Amer
ican newspaper has suffered in the
last few years. Mr.. Spencer. profess
sOr Of journalism in the University,
of Washington. gave this view in a
lecture before the students of the
School of Journalism yesterday morn
ing. In support of this charge. he cited
six recent examples of candidates who
had been elected despite almost unan-
imous' press opposition.
Authority is not respected as in
former years, according to Professor
Spencer People think for themselves
and disobey first impulses.
"COndemning the saxophOne does
not drive it from the orchestra" he
said. Hotels have the sign up that
you shall not shake a certain garment
worn by the fair sex, but this does
not stop the dance. If the Ark of the
Covenant were brought on the cam
pus and people were forbidden to look
at it, some freshman or sophomore
would not only look at it but would
write his name on it.
People think when they read
praise of man in the morning and
abuse of him in the afternoon that
someone is not telling the truth. The
papers must present both sides of a
topic fairly"

THE EVENING MlSSOURIAN
THE VANGUARD OF PROGRESS

Ever throughout the pages OF his
tory has the light of idealism point
ed out the true course Of. human
progress.
True progress is not content with
the old order, but dares to believe
that, in the unexplored realms OF the
future. lie possibilities for the better
ment of mankind, which need only
earnest endeavor of high purpose. The
dominating force of purpose has ever
fashioned the course of life for good
or evil.
In his ideals man pictures the
heights to which he longs to cilmo
His ideal is ever there, always DECK
oning and bidding him upward to
his goal. When he arrives at tne
long-sought prize, he discovers tha'
his ideal has been transplanted by a
reality. and. looking upward, he sees
a new ideal to which he need must
climb.
Not all men are, or ever have been
actuated by high ideals. Only once
has the world possessed Garden oi
Eden, but, throughout the ages. the
names emblazoned on history's pages
and perpetuated in peoples hearts
have been those of men who held the
welfare of man higher than the shac-
kles of conservatism or the undue
excuses of radicalism.
The world needs today, as ever
men with an ideal, men who know
that the world cannot stand still
without deterioration, that each new
wear must bring advancements In art
science and politics if man is to JUS
tify his being.
Consequently objections. to inter-
national cooperation for world peace
seem trivial, emphasizing as they DO
the retention of the old order OF petty
iealousies, emphasizing as they 40

iustice on which alone the world can
hone for lasting peace.

SPRING FIRES

Spring time is cleanup time, time
to burn up old rubbish that never
should have accumulated. But un-
fortunately, it is usually also time Tor
an unwarranted number of destructive
fires.
Statistics show the yearly fire loss
es in the United States to be $35O,Ooo,
600. At least half Of this damage Is
considered easily preventable If prop
er precautions are taken. And the
most popular time for fires OF the
preventable type seems to be in the
spring.
Spring is properly season OF re-
newed energy and life, and usually
carries with it feeling OF joyous
irresponsibility. But is the gratinca-
tion Of impulses for reckiessness
worth all the money that 1t costs
