A Couple O'Rhymes
By
Reley Ryck
THEsTAY-Ar.HoME
Reley Ryck

Others may sing Of the Rolling Stone
Who snaps his fingers at carr
And accumlates naught but . polish
fine
In knocking from here to there.
But I sing the praise Of the Stay-at-
home,
Whose praise is 50 seldom sung;
Who sticks to his job in the fact'ry or
field
And is never from duty swung.
He is the man who gathers the moss,
The kind that is long and green;
He is the fellow whose years are fat
When the wander's years are lean.
For many q man has failed to find
The spot where the treasures Turk,
Until he came back to his own home
town
And settled himself to work.
Stout is the heart which chooses Alright
And willing the hand to do,
For Duty wears ever a fearsome guise
And those who follow are few.
But under the garb so tattered and
torn
Are garments Of texture fine,
And rich the reward Of the ones who
are brave,
And who patiently hold the line.
Pleasure may wait in the paths afar
And the lure Of the trail be strong,

MUST PROVIDE FUR
 JUVENILE COURTS City VIII Have to Act in Accordance With Order
 of Legislature.

The city government must provide a separate court room for the juve- nile court sessions, under a law which was passed by the recent legislature and which is shortly to become efGec- tive. Judge George ". hlett, who in- stituted q juvenile court plan in this city before the legislature enacted the law which provides for such a rcourt, has been holding sessions every Sa Saturday morning in the chamber of the court room. Each week several youthful offenders are aIraigned and lccturcd, In some instances boys and girls are sent to the several reforma- tories throughout the state when this course is felt advisable.
 It is probable that, rather than con- struct and equip a new court room in accordance with the law, the use of the common council chamber will be placed at the disposal of the court for the weekly session.
 The use of the chamber was denied the city court some time ago folloW- iuc a petition of the New Britain Bar association.

New Leader of Democrats

s Cordell Hull, of Carthage, Tenn. newly chosen chairman of the demo- cratic national executive committee, is known as the father of the present income tax law.
 He is considered the best informed man on taxation in the country.

 But he determined on law as a career and at IS entered Cumberland university.
 After his graduation he served one term in the Tennessee legislature and then left for the Spanish American war as captain.
 AS circuit judge in Nashville from 1903 to 1907, he was known as a quick decisive thinker.
 In 1907 he was elected to Congress, where he remained until the begin ming of this year During that term his most important work was the composition of the present income tax law.
