RIPPLING RHYMES.
By Walt Mason.
SOMEWHERE


a torrid wind is. blowing across
the whiting world, the sun new
curves is showing, the slSy's like
hammered gold; but somewhere
il is showing, and men complain
of cold. Somewhere the clouds
are dishing all kinds Of snow and
sleet. somewhere the boys are
wishing. while fhawing OUT their
feet, for weather fit for fishing,
a sport that can't be beat. The
weather's something awful, the
payements smoke and hiss. and
man hands out a lawful OF
language, hit or miss. and says
he has his craw fun of climate
such as this. But somewhere
men are freezing amid the frost
and snow, through arctic nights
they're sneezing, and colder still
they grow. and there's no way
of easing the agonies they know.
Upon the map I'm tracing the
lands with artic goods. where
furnished wolves are raeingA in
lonely neighborhoods, and polar
bears are chasing the voters
through the woods. The heat in
language spiteful. We roast till
we're disgiaced. but in those re-
gions frightful where snowdrifts
go 10 waste, they'd think it most
delightful II they could have a
taste. Somewhere mon dress
in leather, 10 shield them from
ths blast, and have chilblains
together, in wildernesses vast,
50 let US prize this weather,
which is too good 10 last.

ing. which came from Mr.. Johnson's
pen:
Last week, we spoke a word IN COM
mendation OF Mayor Harvey and the
manner with which he was facing the
city's financial problems. Tho con-
ference called by him seemed to us
to merit comment.
"Since that time, however, he has
vetoed the Harbor measure which.
In our judgment, is the one great out
standing opportunity for Wilmington's
development. Other advantages there
are. but none equal to this. Will
mington can never expect to realize
her full possibilities without this de-
velopment. Greater Wilmington can
never be a greater Wilmington with
out this harbor. With II. Wilmington
can come into its own.
I'VE regret that Mayor Harvey
looked too closely to the Ledger. View
ing the subject from the desk and
paneled walls of the directors room.
his vision was bit dimmed for the
moment He should have viewed the
question from the harbor or from the
roof of one of wilmington's great
office buildings for the moment. He
should have viewed the question from
these vantage points and escape the
vision. The future lures when you
glance at the river front. Big men,
big business, big cities and States
are seldom inspired in the counting
room. So we. are glad that Council
viewed the Wilmington of tomorrow
from the harbor and voted for develop
ment and progress. Greater Will
and wilmington of To-
morrow need no longer be mere BAN
ouet word pictures. Its reality is
possible--if the citizens work"

Sims Rebuke Offers New Doctrine.

Tatnall in Chinese waters once re-
marked that blood was thicker than
water and waded in. He was not rep
rimanded. In Cuba British Consul
once threw the British flag over
Americans who faced a firing squad.
He was not reprimanded by the Brit
ish Government. But now no officer
of the Government, except expressly
authorized, may say he hopes for
closer relations between the United
States and the foreign country whose
citizens he may address. Surely a
novel doctrine is this. What is an
American abroad to say If debarred
from expressing hopes for a firmer
friendship?-New York Tribune.

JUST FOLKS
by Edgar A. Guest
A TASK TO DO.

A tasa to do and a bite to eat
A coat 20 wear and a bed at night,
These four make up this life complete
All else is sham III YOU view right.
A task to do and a home TO keep.
wife to smile and a child TO love,
a place TO play and place to SLEEP
What more shall be in the Heaven
above?
One task is all that man can do.
One coat is all that man can wear,
He who has eaten a dinner through
Could eat no more Of the costliest
fare;
Gold cannot sweeten baby's smihe
Fame cannot better a good wife's
kiss.
Sleep doesn't come to the couch OF
stvle,
So rest content as you think of this.
Work is the father of appetite
Better the dinner that's truly earned
Than the silvered table that glows at
night
Where little is eater and much is
spurned:
Better he sleeps at the close of day
Who weary comes TO his humble bed,
Than the man who putteth no care
away.
Better ne wakes when the night is
sped.
The humble home and the castle wall
Shelter mems happiness, yours and
mine,
And God has given the same 10 all
And strengthened them by His love
divine.
A task to do and a bite to eat
A coat 10 wear and bed az night.
These four make UP this life complete,
All else is sham If you view il right

 OF AIR PHOTOS
Special Studies Being Made by
 Armies and Nations

Arcadia. Cal, Dee. S0,--NeW fields in engineering studies are being open Cd at the army balloon and airship school at Ross Field here, in the de- rartments of plotting from photo graphic maps. according to officers of the recently reorGani2od school. The plotting study room is equipped with an enormous photographic map em- bracng 250 square miles of territory, almost 10 Los Angeles, Of which Ar cadia is the center, The map is q mosaic of several thousand photo- graphs, taken by balloon or airship from an altitude of 500 feet.
 Cities Interested.
 As result of these studies by the Langley Field, Va. and Arcadia school the two great airshn schools of the army air service, q number of cities are planning to~use aerial photo graphic maps iu connection with city planning, traffic control, street wid- ening and fire protection work, ac- cording to army officers.
 n Other uses to which photographic maps are being put are preliminary investigations of watersheds hydro- electric developments, highway rail road and canal location, forest sur Neys and various engineering works.
 Methods Involved.
 Army air officers have perfected automatic timing of exposures to coy CT the proper ground area and at the sa me time secure the necessary over lap for the accurate fitting together Of individual negatives. This per mits taking Of pictures from the nov ing airship or airplane. Lenses have been discovered especially adapted for this type of work, and the officers have developed the technique cover- ing such details as the best height from which to take pictures for spe- cific purposes, speed of airpIane and maintenance of level flight 10 insure yerticality of view. The maps now v produced by air service photograph CTS according to officers, attain a ' high degree Of" accuracy and wealth of valuable detail
