JUST FOLKS
BY EDGAR A. GUEST
THE NIGHTLY RONR.

THE NIGHTLY RONfP.
I know no better Joy than this.
When every irksome task Is done
A youngsters rosy lips 10 kiss.
A small boy waiting for his fun.
There's nothing when the day is
Ger
Quite like a romp upon the floor.
Oh. fame rewards US for our toll.
In gold the thinkers draw their
pay.
Crops compensate the well-tilled
soil,
But children sweep our cares
away;
He has a Joy worth working for
Who nightly romps upon the floor
The single man may work for self
The lonely man must work for
gold
But little JOY there is in pelf.
We must have higher dreams 20
hold;
And he IS happiest who can say
He works for children day by day.
oh. he can daily meet HIS task.
And smile beneath his weight Of
care
Nor any special favor ask
II children wait his love TO share
For every evening he returns
Unto the smiles his courage earns.

More Truth
Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE
THEY DON'T SAY WHAT THEY
MEAN

DON Il Il " ALA4
MEAN.
With shivers running up my spine
And thrilling with delightful
shocks,
I heard the hero speak this line:
You brute III fell you like an
OK"
1t sounded brave ard noble then;
It filled my soul with shuddery
bliss;
But when I thought OF it again
II quite defied analysis.
For every OK is kind and meek
OF gentle heart and placid feature
And not a one would ever seek
To fell a fellow creature.
With lowered brow and cleaning
eye
In accents clear and deep and
firm
I heard the bastard villain cry
you wretch. I'll crush you Ike
a worm,"
II had a fine and moving sound
The sentiment was bold and
strong.
But on repeating 1t I found
The smile was put in wrong.
I've looked on worlds OF worms be-
tween
The Hudson and the IrTawaddy,
But I am sure I've never seen
A worm crush anybody.
Last night I viewed another play
And how my blood was set astir
what time I heard the lady say:
I'm going 10 shoot you like a curi"
II seems 70 me that this brief line
Expressed a fiery sentiment
And vet / simply can't divine
Exactly what the lady meant.
For though the average bow-wow
VIII bit if YOU his tail should step
on,
I've never seen one that knew how
To use a lethal weapon.

President Will Say Whether
U. S. Takes Part in Settlement
Of Aland Island Case

WASHINGTON, Oct. IA President
wilson is to determine whether th. re-
quest Of the League of Nations that an
American member be appointed hy hin,
10 serve on the proposed international
COMMISSION to attempt s. settlement Of
the Aland Islands case is to be granted
At the State Department. today it
was pointed out that there existed no
bar to an American representative on
this commission, notwithstanding that
the United States has not ratified the
League of Nations. It wa. advanced
that the ownership Of the Aland Isl
ands had been in controversy for more
than a hundred years and that the
views Of the United States q. to the
future Of the islands doubtless would
be welcomed.
1t was recalled that the appoin tment
Of Elihu Root as member Of the
board to discuss ar international court
had come from the League Of Nations
and the former Secretary Of State had
served as the American represen tative
on that body. This was held out as a
precedent for American participation
IN the Aland Islands case.
The proposed commission is to ap-
nroach the governments Of Sweden and
Finland and the inha abitants Of the isl
>ands and report back TO the league any
solution reached TO settle definitely the
future of the disputed territory.
