More Truth

THE LUCKY CANDIDATE.

THE LUCKY CANDIDATE.
The big party candidates soon will
set out
To hustle around for the votes,
And speak night and day as they
speed on their way,
Till they wear all the bark from
their Threats.
But Debs will recline in a cool, coy
cell,
Look out at the sweltering sky.
And dreamily smile as he murmurs
the while.
Say Warden. I'd like some more
pie"
He'll not spend the summertime
rushing about
It's lucky for him that he cannot
get out!
The big party candidates soon will
be forced
To HE them to chowder and balls.
And wilt with fatigue while they
talk on the league
In Redmen's and Oddfellows'
halls
But Debs will send out for the soli-
taire deck,
Play over the games that he
KNOWS
or calmly peruse the political news
Till the hour arrives for repOse.
It's lucky for him that he's forced
to refrain
From making a gruelling, killing
campaign
The big party candidates soon will
receive
Their faithful supporters in mobs,
Rich boosters and poor. all keen TO
secure
The promise OF good paying jobs.
But Debs. when informed that a
crowd IS outside
And still larger crowds are ex-
pected.
Each eager TO grace a good govern
ment place
Provided. of course. he's elected.
He'll say with a gentle and humor-
Gus grin.
SAY Warden, just tell the whole
gang I'm not in"

IRIS.

Greek mythology, which has sup
piled so many of the loveliest femin-
inc names in usage today is respon-
sible for Iris. 1t has a double signifi-
canoe and can be translated either
as the rainbow. or the flower which
the French call "fleur de lis" and
Americans term flag"
The former meaning is prefer
able, since the Iris of Greek mythol-
ogy was the goddess Of the rainbow.
In Homer's Hiad, she appears as
the lovely, swift-footed messenger
OF the gods, the feminine counter
part of Hermes. Her special as
signment was the bearing OF royal
commands from Zeus and Hera 10
the lesser deities.
The flower iris is undoubtedly re-
sponsible for the popularity OF the
name in England and America. 1t
