The Matter Of SavInp

Sir-One OF your correspondents seems not
to have graspcd tho meaning Of my anti

and almost necessary. Nobody approves Of
eXtravaganCe ond waste (although no great
work was ever accomplished without them),
but saving carried too far is worse than
both. IL everybody were to save all they
could. In less than year half of the pco-
pie would bo out of work and the rest
would soon be paupcrlzed by the low prices

drop: 30 would wages, and production would
almost cease. How would people be able
to save II they could not find work? Spend

OF course. on'y put in banks Is loaned
to others to spend, but business men won't

the people don't also spend. The dollar
spent usefully by the individual Is the
foundation Of prosperity. This country is
the richest and most progressive earth
because it's people are the frcest spcnders

Few can make money IN country whcrc

V',ts' belt very much like the Sam Browne
''it was worn In the Civil War by cavalry
anu sucn infantry officers who preferred
sIceled Scabbards to the leather things that
uic TIPS fell off from. They served to re-
neFe the diaphragm or gizzard or something
from the weight OF saber and revolver. A
I'Cture OF myself taken in 1903. sttll In my
possession shows tho shoulder belt.
Many Russian troops have suspended their
swords In this way. with the scabbard rings

doubt allows drawing the weapon for a
sudden slash perhaps half n second sooner
than with the hilt In front. Just as the pres
ent practice OF carrying n pistol muazle TO

sedes the old position Of the hip.
Asnttcs invariably have the shoulder belt
to sustain their side arms. In the ':un-
changing East" no doubt Alexander. Keno

the hump" and the Americans "a grouch.'D
BY Stephen Peil
An American Soldier in France
Whon you hate the war and hate your
work.
And you'd welcome a German shell,
That would land at your feet or over your
head
And blow your soul to he'll;
"hen you hate your chief and you hate
your pals
And you curse yourself to sleep;
AFTER smoking hundred cigarettes
Or counting million sheep;
When you hate the sight of a uniform,
Or the sound OF an aeroplans,
And the thought OF a greasy motorosr
Just nils your heart with pain;
"hen you look st tho river with longing
or sneak for your peace Of n load
Crhoush you know damned well that in war
time
A man can't take that road;
When you hate tho bark OF q soixante. .auinze
Ana lOath the sight OF a gun:
fou can bet ton francs TO a demi.sou
you've got ''le cafard," my sonl
IL generally comes when you're In repose,
And you haven't enough to do
UT you've hit the ''pinard' a bit too hard
And IL left you a triae blue:
The clouds that gather are darker than dark,
ANA the day gets blacker than black:
fou think or your sins, both little and big,
For a thousand cons back;
the Girls you've kissed, and the girls you've
missed
10 shooting across your brain;
iou long FOR the sight OF a powdered nose,
Ana an evening gown again,
foure tired OF looking at soldiers
you're sick Of the khaki shirt;
You sigh for the sound Of a womnn's voice
Ana the swish OF a slken skirt.
"heh inc things you've done that you
shouldn't
Ana the things that you've left unasone
are rocking your soul into fragments
you've got 'ie cafard," my son.

"keep Smiling"

To the EdttOr OF the ErCuND Public LCdOcr:

you prevail upon the peopl, TO continue TO
"kcc9 smilinE" as the only way to over
come the conditions in which we find our
selves at present To walk around with
II sad and serious look will not bring any
better condition TO us.
This Is all very well for advice. but It
's Elighty hard sometimes to follow. My
husband n locomotive engineer for eight
years. has. up until this slump. made over
$3.50 II month All things are reducing.
even wages When prices go up wages are
tho last thing to increase. Let the first
reduction in anything como along and 1t
doesn't take long for wages to come down.
Union men cannot have their scale of
wages lowered. but what's the difference
when hours are reduced? Our check IS now
averaging $3.50 month.
And tho newspapers are advising us TO
keep smiling and buy wisely what is nee
essary to help us all over the grade onto
the Lowell road again. That's a wise re-
mark in some cases, Ia lovc to buy, but
with our bare living expenses. taxes and
our yearly payments to make on our place,
It keeps the woman Smiling to fix over
and fuss up old clothing that once was
considered too old to wear. It's all well
enough to keep smiling and buy wisely. II

Glong. know this complaint does not alone
show tie condition on the elevated, but 1

He sailed away in gallant bark
Roy Neill and his fair young bride.
lie had ventura all In that bounding ark
That danced DER the silyery tide.
but MS heart was young and his spirit light,
And he dashed the tear away,
As he watched the shore recede from sight
or his own sweet Dublin bay.
Three days they sa.rd and a storm arose.
And the l!ghtening swept the deep:
And the thundercrash broke the short repose
or thh weary seaboys sleep
Roy Ncill, he clasped his weeping bride.
And no kiss'd her tears away:
'Oh. love. twas fatal hour" she cried
when we left sweet Dublin bay
On the crowded deck OF tho doomed ship,
Some stood In their mute despair:
And some more calm. with a holy lIp,
Sought the God OF the storm in prayer
'She has struck on the rockr' the seamer
cried.
IN the breath OF their wild dsmay
And the ship went down and the fair younS
bride,
That sailed from Dublin bay.
