MOTH ER'S DAY

She would grant us all we seek,
Give her strength where we are weak.
Beauty? She would let it go
For the joy We yearn 10 know.
Life? She'd give it gladly, too.
For the dream that we pursue;
She would toll that We might play
That is ever mothers way.
Not enough for her are flowers,
Her life is so blent with ours
That in all we dare and do
She is partner. through and through; ;
Suffering when We suffer pain,
Happy when we smile again,
Living with us, night and day
That is ever mothers way.

Tender, gentle, brave and true,
Loving us whate'er we do,
Waiting. watching at the gate
For the footsteps that are late,
Sleepless through the hours of night
Till she knows that we're all right,
Pleased with every word we say
That is ever mothers way.
Others sneer and turn aside,
Mother welcomes us with pride;
over boastful of us, too,
Glorying in all we do,
First to praise and last to blame,
Love that always stays the same,
Following us where'er We stray
That is ever mothers way.

As Others See 1t
mo CHILDREN ARE WANTED"
(Tonnn Tin,eSl

(Tamna TiTesl
In checking the listing cards at the tourist M
formation bureau ii is there are no less than 10
cards which state that children wanted" in the
homes CT those who have rooms for rent This is one
the crimes. against humanity, advertise house
keeping rooms and top of that state mo children
wanted The citizens of Tampa would do well TO take
this question in hand and where the persons who have
rooms for rent and advertise in such manner they
should be placed the retired list
These persons. who don't want children are scat
tered all the city and in Seminole Heights.
The Times has list of those who want to rent their
rooms but who care for the future rulers of the
land.
In many places throughout the country these peo-
pie are placed sort of black list and all other
places rented first in preference to theirs 1t is be-
lieved this would, if tried in this city, eliminate
some of this practice.
We had fattered ourselves that city was free
that species of ghouls who have place in their
hearts homes for the little Of the earth, but il
seems mistaken. 1t would show at least, Dc
regard the opinion Of the world these people
who think of their furnishings than they do OF
human beings would refrain from advertising then
rooms for rent.

TIME TO ACT

Acting Mayor Howen, OF jackson
vile, has called a mass meeting to take
steps to preserve law and order ana
the security of person and property. Il
is time to act not only at Jacksonville
where disorders are little if any worse
than at all other cities Of equal size,
but throughout the whole country.
The law is on trial Never before
in the history of this country has there
been such widespread and contemptu-
Gus disregard of public authority. Each
day has its long tale Of burgIaries, rob
berries, murders, thefts, arsons and
other crimes; as well as its chronicle ct
men lynched, whipped, tarred and
feathered or subjected to other outrages
by men pretending 10 be on the side CT
law and order.
The criminal class and the seIf-con-
stituted law and order class rival each
other in their disregard of the law Of
the land
1t is time 10 act. Speculation as to
the cause Of the crime wave can wait
till the wave subsidies The public
must decide whether this shall be a
government of law, or land Of an
archy. 1t is up to the people. They
must come to the rescue, rot as vigi-
lance committees, not as lynchers, not
as an independent force OF any kind,
but as upholders and defenders of the
courts and public officers as they now
exist. If an organization IS required,
it should be nation wide IN its scope,
and the pledge Of each member should
be, Il will obey the law, enforce the
law, uphold the law.
We need no secret punitive organ-
cations. no star-chamber tribunals,
nothing that savors of terror or mys-
terry, but a bold, open determination to
see that all the laws are enforced and
all the guaranteed rights of the people
respected.

HANDICAPPED
rooms for rent.

worthy gent, with stately bow.
Stepped out upon the stage of life,
a wreath of laurel on his brow
And in his heart contempt for strife.
Fames ladder he essayed to scale
That he might rank above the "cod,"
But failure camped upon his trail
Because his name was "Ichabod"
A damsel tripped across the lea
And gaily chased butterfly
Whose tnts defed all artistry;
~ hopeful sparkle in her eye.
But. though she covets lasting fame.
She cannot hope to grace the screen
And set the movie world afame.
Because her name is Angelina.
When life young !. set mark
| must decline to tell it's height.
And daily warbled with the lark,
And longed to join him in his tight
But if reach that lofty peg
Tord which | strive from day to day.
I'll have to stand upon keg
Because my name is Joshua

MiDWlNTER SORROW

Alas there's troublbe everywhere, according to the
daily newa, and countless cupboards are bare OF
pumpkin pies and oyster stews, and children wall and
tear their hair because they haven't any shoes And
we might preach those who lack the pies that human
critters need, reminding them how, some months back
they cut gorgeous swath. indeed, and how we urged
them then to pack in brine the kopeck and the seed.
But preaching is an empty graft when human innarl;
madly ache; there always is mighty raft OF sermons
when kids call for cake. when folks yearn TO SIT
abaft a large and luscious siroin steak And SO Wen
brighten up the lives of those who walk knee deep
in and stake the poor gents and their wives from
abundant stack of dough- the Christmas spirit still
survives in all of u.s. we'd have you know. Wen spring
our platudes when next prosperity around is seen,
when workingmen perpleXt by absence OF the
good long green pie is better than text when meals
are few and far between.

Contrary to the popular belief, it
is not the frost which causes the
leaves to put on their gay colors in
the fall. This bright coloration is
caused by the sap retreating to the
roots which results in a chemical re-
action. Such action is FASTENED by
frost or cold weather but many times
the leaves begin to turn before there
is any nip of frost in the air.
