NILKMAID'S SONG
From Robin Hood

Annabel-
Oh. an ideal milkmaid's a thing of
grace,
She's a creature Of poets fancy,
With Hssome figure and laughing
face.
Her hands are ieweled and oh! so
white,
And her ewes like diamonds bright,
And her step is fairy light.
She's the manner and mien of my lady
fine,
And even her cows are idvllic kline,
Such milkmaidens poets and painters
find,
And it's proper TO add we are Just
that kind.
Nay, the kind Of milkmaids that you
describe,
Are milkmaids seen very rarely.
The real milkmaid is old and fat.
Her figures something 10 cavil at,
Her hands are rough and her
gown home-spun,
She but sings when her work IS
done.
OF all her life Ills the saddest tale
When a COW kicks over a trimming
pail;
Here life's a merry round It's said.
OF rising and working and going to
bed.

NEEDED:-AN APPROPRIATION
TO KEEP THE ENFORCE
NENT STAFF INTACT

Enemies Of Prohibition enforce
ment, particularly that element actu-
ally engaged in the illegal manufac-
ture and sale Of liquor, will be cheer
ed by the news that the Prohibition
enforcement department is compelled
to withdraw more than two-thirds Of
the enforcement officers from the field
for a period of forty days Such
action will leave these criminals free
in some sections to reap harvest
unmolcsted. This applies TO those
states where no state enforcement
code is IN effect and also to the moon
shining districts in some Of the
southern states.
In those states where adequate
codes are in operation, the work Of
the state. county and city enforce
ment officers will be increased as =
result " the withdrawal Of federal
agents from the field However. in
such states the booze criminals will
not have everything their own way.
Mr.. Kramer says Of the 500 mem
beers Of his staff to be retained but
$50 are actual enforcement officers.
The rest Of them are employed in
the offices and must keep to their
posts in order to maintain the organ
ization.
And this foolish policy of giving
the bootlegger and moonshiner right
of way in certain sections is the re-
suit Of the failure Of Congress to
make adequate emergency apppropri-
alton To- meet the situation! The
Treasury Department asked for a
sum sufficient to maintain the present
enforcement staff up TO July !. but a
penny-wise- pourd-foolish decision by
Congress left the Department 5000
600 short.
Looked at purely from the dollars
and cents standpoint. the refusal to
grant the full amount asked for by
the Department was mistake, for
the Prohibition Department is more
than paying its way. But looked at
from the standpoint of good govern
ment the decision is more than a mis-
take, it is a tragedy.
II is difficult to estimate the harm
forty days of lax enforcement would
do the cause Of law enforcement.
