Ripping Rhymes
BY WALT MASON
EIGHT ARE DEAD

Eight airmen lately have been slain
while rushing mail across the waste;
to me such labors seem in vain; oh,
why this everlasting haste? Eight
men are dead and in their graves,
young chaps cut off before their prime,
since some official saphead raves that
mail must go in record time. The
letters that the airmen took. when
stricken out of life by fate, would have
been just as good, gadZook, If they had
been a fortnight late. The most of
them were doubtless duns, announcing
retribution sore. unless indebted sons
of guns cOughed up at Johnson's Gold
Black Store. \ lot of price lists and
the like composed the dead mems
treasured mail; comic strip of Pete
and Mike. and blue sky promises of
kale. l have a large and haunting
bunch that makes one fact exceeding
clear: There was no letter in the
bunch that could not wait at least a
year Eight men are dead and gone TO
waste, their brave hearts stilled for
evermore, because of this indecent
haste that fills the world with fur and
gore. The old time methods were the
stuff, and all this maudlin haste is
bum; our letters travel fast enough
they always jolt US when they come.

Our Foreign Service

THE hope said to be expressed by foreign
governments that new men placed by President
elect Harding in the foreign diplomatic service
will be trained diplomats and experienced men,
and not merely party men, will be strongly echoed
on this side,'' says the Indianapolis Star
Put in another way, the wish will be that
they shall be Americans first, with the interests
of their country at heart and an intelligent
knowledge of what those interests are.
Previous to Mr.. Wilson's advent the consular
service had begun to be established on merit
basis. If a consular agent showed a fitness for
his work and served American commercial inter-
ests acceptably, he was not turned out when
new administration came in, but was kept in the
service and in line for promotion to more import
ant posts. Some even became ministers. The
coming of the present administration naturally
brought about many changes, in order to make
room for deserving Democrats Mr.. Bryan,

Dinner Stories

Little Bessie, aged five, after calling
her mother several times during the
night and receiving no reply, said,
Mother, are you really asleep. or are
you just offending you're telephone
girl?'
Here is another story which the
collector of true dog yarns might like
TO add to his list. A gentleman had
n dog whose eyes were remarkably
different in size. Whenever a stranger
dined at the house tho dog played a
trick on him. He would first get fed
at one side of the guest, then go
around to the other side, and pretend
TO be another dog,

G. Glow did the Passion Play"

sion Play" a dramatic representation
Of the sufferings of Christ, originated
from vow made by the inhabitants
of the little Bavarian village in 1858,
with the hope of staying plague than
raging. The original text probably
was made by the monks of Ettal but
The parish priests have since carefully
revised the text. The music was COM
posed by Rochus Dedler in. 1914. The
play is given by amateurs in a purely
reverential spirit. and not for gain. It
requires a cast of about seven hundred
persons In 1901 an $4,000 playhouse
was erected especially for the play,
which is given every ten years. The

author of this phrase, placed good many such
Democrats in the service during his short term
in the cabinet. To what extent in eight years
the merit system has been overthrow in this
department will be shown later, but there prob
ably will be many new appointments for the good
of the service and while these new men doubt
less will be Republicans, they should certainly be
chosen because of ability and fitness rather than
for their deserving qualities-that is to say,
their skill as party workers.
I'm the rebuilding of our foreign commerce
there will be special need for intelligent and we'll
equipped men as consuls. We have suffered in
the past from incompetence and Indifference on
the part of these officers, but keen wit, general
commercial knowledge and familiarity with
Americas special trade possibilities were never
more greatly needed than they will be for the
next few years, and the equipment of the ar-
pointees in these respects should be the first
consideration. Wilson appointees in the service
who have proved their fitness in these respects
should not be disturbed. -.
CAS- for the diplomatic department-the am
bassadors, ministers and their attaches-they
should be chosen also with special view to their
training and general equipment, for our nations
interests abroad need the attention of our best
men. Much stress has been placed by the people
of the country on the Importance of having able
men in Mr.. Harding's cabinet, but it is fully as
important that the men sent abroad should all
be aqual to their duties"

two victims were charged. Regard less of what they may or may not have done, it was not the province of the men who took the law into their own hands to pass judgment and inflict punishment.
 It is brutal and cowardly for a mob to whip man, but such treat ment of woman, even though she may be guilty of the blackest crime, is a blot on any town where it oc- CUTS. There was time when Bir- mingham had bad reputation. That era is past, and a recurrence of mob violence cannot be tolerated.
 It will do little good at this late day for Governor Kilby to offer a reward for the members of the mob who whipped C.\S. Cooley and Mrs Alexander, but the grand jury's re- port may strengthen the determina- tion of city and county authorities to maintain order.

-------------------,s'--- - COLONEL AND CHARLIE

From the St. Louis Post Dispatch.
 The English can never complain of a lack of attention on our part. We have sent them our best in the way of golf and tennis; we received their Cbesterton with huge laughter, and theis Drinkwater and Dunsany with packed houses. And now they are De- ing edified by that pair of peerless entertainers, Colonel Harvey and Charlie Chaplin.
 It is a close race for space in the London papers between the redoubt- able Colonel and the matchless Charles, dispatches say. Each has his special appeal. nor is the advan- tage so greatly with the movie king as might be suspected. Does the lat ter bid for laughter with feet and cane? The Colonel counters by mak- ing a speech. What though the com edian wiggles m1stache and scalp his rival squares the match with Love to the Prince-S
  London birth foreshadow victory for him in the race for British esteem We who have seen the versatile Colo nel become democrat and then repub- lican, original Wilsonite and fore- most of the bitter enders" are req sonably willing to wager that he can furnish proof of English birth If the exigency requires it. We know to what degree the colonel possesses what the sport writers call change of pace.'
 At any rate, it is a spectacle to be- muse both vulgar and judicsous. Per- haps it will end, as many rivalries have, in consolidation Why noty They doubtless have many interests in common. What a vaudeville com bination it would make: Chaplin and Harvey, Jugglers and Acrobatsr' Let the show go on.
