Like the voice of a murmuring
stream,
A verse I could write filled with

In making the syllables flow
In any such style, for the critics

And say that 1 stole it from Poe.
In fact they'd do worse, they
would dig up the verse
And prove that 1 stole it from

Which never employed any time

But the critics would sheer while
they made it appear
1 had cribbed Sinclair Lewis's

Still further they'd go; they would

That I'd cribbed Mr.. Lewis's

read seven ways
And get a new meaning each
time,
You could never make out what the

Yet the sound would be simply
sublime.

SOME DAY.
Some day they'll know why we worry
When into the road on flying feet
They venture the dangers of the
street;
Some day the youngest of them will
know,
Although he laughs at our fears
today,
Just why we watch him out there
at play.
Some day they'll know why we wills
per No"
When they wish to wander where
danger lies,
And bring the tears to their youth
full eyes;
Some day they'll learn what we
dreaded so,
Some day they'll find, in the years
TO be.
What only the parents of children
see.

Enemies and political opponents or Woodrow Will

Secy Tumulty, the closest the president,
in position to know all the facts, gives far diff
ferent interpretation
The inclination OF Pres't Wilson was to permit
Roosevelt to go abroad-but there had been deter
mined a definite policy of selectve service under
professionally trained army officers
To have broken the rolcy to crafty the wishes

entire system The private inclination presi-
dent gave way to the greater good
The retention OF Col Wood in this country,
claimed by his friends political act. due
Gen. Pershing. to Woodrow Wilson.
Pershing had been given full command and full
responsibility. His job to win the and
handicaps of selection of his assistants was placed
upon him.
The American commander did not want Wood and
he was kept at home for that reason and for no
other He not martyr a political
sacrifice.
The judgment of Pershing vindcated by re-
suits. He did win the The he selected to
come confirmed his good opinion OF them.
Woodrow Wilson did trouble to shift the
burden of criticism which came TO him from these
acts, in which he had part other than to cling
a fixed policy. q definite policy which he had
worked out to win and which did win.
He bore the shafts that those whom ne relied
and whom he placed in authority might be free
10 do the big job marked out sor them.
The revelations OF Tumulty should be welcomed
by all fair minded men and women who may have
been led to believe by the haters of Wilson that
