MORE TRUTH THAN POETRY.

(By James j. Montaguc.)
We've got to get rid OF the oldiash

He's bound to accord her continued
And live by her side for the rest
Of his life.
For people OF intellcct-tied by tho

Or once in fortnight take dinner -"
gether,
Or go for Il stroll in the parl1-and
that's all.
1t bolws all the dust from the butter
fly's pinions,
1t dries all the dew OH the tender
est rose.
To live in the sclf-same domestic to-
minions,
With Il man who is constantly blow
ing his nose,
TO watch him gulp onions and swal-
low spaghetti,
And hack 1t his nails with Il mani

It's wiser to see him but once Il

To Wow him dollcd up i'll the costli-

With pair Of mauve spats and a

Which, crihbed i'll Il parlor would

For love is Il fragile and pcrishing
flower,
That pines on it's stem II the light
is too strong,
A marvellous nectar which swiftly
turns sour,
And posons the soul il one keeps
it for long.
So hail the new and submit to
it mcel1ly.
Don't live in the house with the
wife of your heart,
Call her up on the phone, or take tca

Or the loVcbird romance will take
wings and depart.
And if YOU would keep her young
love ever vernal,
And hold her affections forever in

by making her passion profound
and eternal
Why go the whole limit-don't see

Wilson Goes to
Boulder Meet

Joe Mack Wilson of the North Canon
high school, left with Prof Frank
Hickey, the athletic coach of THE
school, to take part in the State Inter.
scholastic field meet there. Joe Mack
made some remarkable records for
the school here, and the records of
the other scores in all prominent ath-
letic meets in the state show that his
records here were not surpassed.
The Canon track team made very
good showing, and more of the team
would have gone to Boulder but for
the fact that the meet was held on
Friday, the field day date in Canon
City, and the boys could not attend on
that account. and being Officers in the
cadet corps of the school.
The Boulder meet is to be the de-
Gliding point of the championship
school. and the determining of indi-
vidual honors among the states high
school athletes. The local school will
have a very strong man to represent
them at the Boulder gathering. and
its supporters are expecting that Joe
Mack will bring back a good share Of
the honors to the school.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-Repre-

pressed his opinion on the operation
of the railroads by the government.
before the railroad deficiency appro-
priation bill passed the House: The
bill before us carries an appropriation
of 5000, 100000 to pay portion of the
loss INCURRED through the operation
of the railways by the Federal gov
ernment Mr.. Good of the commit
mittee presenting the report. est.
mates the total loss at $1,375 .000, 600
Whatever may be our opinion of this
Federal control during the war. we
should not forget that It cost the peo-
pie at least that amount for a service
during that period of character
which would not have been tolerated
If the railroads had been under private
management. But under the circunI-
stances the people patriotically put
up with all kinds of inconveniences as
became good citizens. Now they
must pay the high cost of government
operation. 1t may be q matter Of
opinion, but 1t has always been mine
that II would have been better II the
roads had been left in private control.

restrictions the railroads would have
