And welcomes every breeze.

Enough to so where Nature filings

RIpPLISG RHYMES.
BY Walt Mason.
THE pARrAH.

The man whose credits on the
blink is known by all upon tho
street. and it is sad to see him
stink around the town on furtive
feet. He has a frightened, hunted
air. no tranquil hours BY him
enjoyed: he lodges here, ne
lodges there, the merchant
princes to avoid Perchance he
is a gifted scout, the fire Of genius
in his glim, but he has worn his
credit out. and there's no welcome
sign for him. No smile Of greet
ing warns his heart as he goes
shutting down the street, but peo-
pie say, in shop and mart, There
goes Jim Jinx, the blamed old
beat" His children suffer for his
sins, when to the schoolhouse they
repair, scorned by the grocer's $
stall fed twins. and by the village
butchers heir. Ills wife has met
a cold rebuff in nearly every store
in town, when she would buy on
tick some stun to make herself .

their way. because ne doesn't
bring the kale TO pay his bills on
settling day. And it is strange
that any man will such a state Of
things endure, and be the village

simple cure. Let him but show
a wise desire to pay his creditors
their mon. and nothing more viii

eERmANy,s BELATED DECISION.

Germany's belatod but final accept
ance of the reparations terms would
have been made earlier, possibly, Il she
had not received false aid and comfort
in the belief that -, Harding ad
ninistration would act as a buffer he
tween her and the demands of the
Allies.
Il was only after Mr.. Harding an
nounccd. during the visit Of Rene Nivi-
ami to these shores. that the United
states would not interfere with the
reparations matter that Germany de-
cided that she would have TO pay up to
the hnt. The decision Of Mr.. Harding
to have our representatives ait IL the
Allied conference was another blow
which told Germany t9at her last card
not a trump--had boon played. and
that the time to settle had arrived.
The German decision would no doubt
have been made at least two months
earlier il Nj. Harding had embodied
in his inauguration speech tho same
vigorous statement toward Germany
which he made after he had finally
clarified his mind on this matter. But
even so. it is better to have his action

JUDGES IN GOWNS.

. Former President Taft. alarmed at the
prevalence of crime. says that Judges
should wear gowns when sitting on the
bench. MIR. Taft reasons that man is
impressed by what he sees. and believes
that the siliSen drapery would cause tho
average person 10 respect judges more.
and that it would cause n feeling of
awe in the breast of criminals.
MIR. Taft's reasoning is good MS far as
il goes. Man is impressed by visual
evidence. He desires n symbol for every
value i'm life, and must have It even
when he is called upon to fight for his
land. But the time TO impress culprits
and others Is not when they are brought
to justice-but before n crime is com
nitted.
The only way to do that is To begin
at the root: let judges. by their wise
handling of cases. by their refusal TO
he swayed either by mob passion or
political expediency, create in the minds
of men and women tho healthy respect
which is due the law. Then parents
will be careful to teach their children
propcr respect for the law which Judges
interpret and uphold The judge in
n silk gown might cause n criminal TO
trcmbIe Mt the knees when brought 90
tho bar of Justice. but it would have
little IL any influence in preventing
that man committing crime.
