LILAC TIME

The linnet and the throstle. too, and
after dark, the long halloo,
And golden-eyed tu-whit, tu-whoo, OF
owls that ogle London
For Noah hardly knew a bird. OF any
kind, that isn't heard
AT Kew, at Kew, in lilac time-and o,
so near to London
And when the rose begins to pout, ana
all the chestnut spires are out,
You'll hear the rest, without doubt,
all chorusing for London.
Come down to Kew in lilac time, in
lilac time, in lilac time;
Come down to Kew in lilac time, 1t
isn't far from London.
And you shall wander, hand in hand,
With Love. in summers wonderland;
Come down to Kew in lilac time, it
isn't far from London.

Newspaper Syndicate)
Astrologers read this as an un-
fortunate day until evening. Mer-
curry, Venus. Jupiter and the Sun
are all in Dalefic aspect. Late in the
evening Venus changes to friendly
sway.
1t is a time in which to hold m
abeyanee all important matters, es-
pecially those having to do with
commerce or banking.
There is sign read as forecast
ing rumors disquieting to business
affairs, but these will be exaggerat-
ed.
The signing of contracts or leases
during this rule is to be avoided,
since disappointment is indicated.
Women who have large ambitions
should not put fate to the test while
this configuration prevails. 1t is an
especially unfavorable time to seek
any sort of political appointment.
There is a sign read as disturbing
to men and women who are in
places in the Sun. since the stars
are likely to cause them to feel de-
pressed, irritable and doubtful Of
their own abilities.
Warning is given that in trade
there may be unexpected declines
where large orders are expected and
this may be especially noticeable
where clothing, millinery and the
accessories of women's dress are in
volved.
Newspaper criticisms of women
as well as men who hold public
office are forecast. Women should
cultivate the judicial and imperson-
al attitude toward the world, the
seers declare.
This evening should be an auspi-
cious time for the lighter forms of
social entertainment, since the rule
is conducive . to careless gayety,
dancing. and even love-making.
Marriage today should be FORUM
ate, provided the wedding ceremony
is performed in the evening.
Astrologers foretell the growth of
efficiency in business methods in the
United States and an increase in
the demand for scientific training in
all vocations.
While Russia is to suffer from
continued internal trouble there is
a promising rule for the nation.
Many Americans will go to the prin-
cipal cities to identify themselves
with great undertakings.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is
should be careful in the handling
of money. They should avoid spec
ulation.
Children born on this day may
work hard for a living but they
should be successful. These SUBJ
jects of Pisces usually have method
ical and Industrious tendencies.

Mrs. Harding Tiireless
Worker Speaks Plainly

WASHINGTON. March 4:-Flor-

Lady of the Land, possesses an un-

many subjects and she does not
hesitate to speak her opinions
straight out from the shoulder.

a kindly and delightful mistress.

All her life Mrs. Harding has
been a determined and tireless
worker, not only in the details of
her household, but in the broader
field of business and community

ing been a rugged power of the pio-

and she went to work in its business
department. She applied herself to
advertising and circulation prob
lens with an eye for efficiency all
along the line. She watched the
original purchases of print paper
and materials and she stood at the
presses and gave instructions to the
newsboys daily before they started
on their rounds with the finished
product.
1t is said of her in Marion that
when she became the wife of the
struggling young editor she told her
friends she expected to make him
president some day. and It is known
that at some of the most discourage
ing stages of the preconvention
campaign last year 1t was she who
insisted most vigorously that the
night be continued.
During the strenuous days when
thousands were marching to the
front porch of the Harding resi-
dence on Mt. Vernon avenue she
was the most active figure about
her husbands headquarters. She
was beside him every time he spoke
at home or away; she shook hands
with as many men and women as
his offices from morning until night.

Mrs. Harding, drawing the porch
chairs back against the wall for the
night and softly whistling a quiet
little air of contentment.
"You seem happy enough" he
called across to her.
