Doesn't Want Widow to Get BIN

To the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir-Why Is your cartoOnist, Sidney
Smith. SO anxious to see the Gumps
disinheritcd, and the Australian mil
ions 60 to this designing widow? He
seems to stand alone in this desire.
Thus far ! have not seen one Of your
correspondents who desired to see Uncle
Rim disposed Of in this way. Think Of
what 1t would mean to have a good.
healthy American family get hold Of
these millions, instead Of scheming
widow, who would spend It in paint,
powder, head adornment and other dis
reputable ways to vamp young men and
show them royal good time with the
"cush" that Uncle BIN worked so hard
to accumulate. Any one can see-with
probably the one exception, Mr.. Smith
that this Zander woman doesn't love
tncle BIN. MARY r. JORDAN.

IA. Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sill am not a protagonist for the
Aonus TO the ex. soldier. neither am

,he bill, as far as am concerned per
sonally, It won't make me mad. IL the
MI ia passed I will accept It's pro-

nae of Il, mighty good use to. but
"a. shocked to read In the newspapers
tbe account OF the speech made by
Major General Waller, of the Marine
Corps, upon the occasion of dinner
s,ven BY q naval post Of the American
Legion In the bellevue Stratford Hotel
( cn the night Of January 2S.
General Waller charged In his speech
4hat many of the men who are interested
n The massage of the bonus bill were
torced into the service at the point of
= bayonet; that 1t was unfair to him
Tthe Genera. J to be mu ctesl In the form
n taxes to furnish money to provide
these "loaferS," as he characterized
them, cash to spend in a few weeks OF
idleness. He made use OF the word
'Ioafer" several times during his
speech against the proposed bonus bill.
lie was not justified In giving express
don to the ugly words that he hurled Mt
the gent. .emen interested in the passage
Of this bill. His language. was insult
ins to those who are working for the
biil, AZ we'll as to oil cx-service men
who served the colors. Now let us see
about his charge regarding the 'bayonet
point urging men into the service. a
bill was passed by Congress known az s
The Selcctivc Service Act that to nll
intents and purposes stopped enlistmcnts
automatically, No one in the draft ase
could enlist after the draft boards got
running smoothly and functioning as
they were intended to function. Only
draft dodgers were forced into the serv-
ice at the point Of n bayOnet. Enough
money has been spent by the Govern
lnent on the Bcrgdol brothers to pay
The bonus to whole regiment OF ex.
service men who did their full duty
TO the Nation us the records Of the
War Department show only an iniin\.
tesimally small percentage Of the great
body of young men In the draft ase
we're forced to 60 into the service under
pressure. 1t cnn be said that all the
young men in the draft age were fully
sensible Of their debt to the Nation.
and only in cases like the Bergdol
brothers were bnyonets necessary. and
draft dodgers are not eligible, for the
bonus under the wording Of the pro-
posed bill.
How then could General Waller stis-
matize the protagonists Of the bonus Bill
by charging they were forced into the
service at the point of bay6net?
The fact that he Is a high ranking
officer in the United States Marine
Corps makes his charges all the more
serious.
The writer was just common, or
dinary soldier during the war, proud
that he was able to fulfill his obligation
to the Nation in the time of a nationa.
crisis. We were worked hard. had few
comforts, and were glad to retire to
civil life when the war was terminated.
Yes, III accept the bonus, and l am
anything but a ''loafer!'

essrudss Maid Everything

<vt"o Eottor 0f the Evening Pwotc LcooeT!
Sir-Qne Of your correspondents
states that she pays her. maid $1o a
week and calculates that the maid costs
necessities. This may be true OF this
writer, but I think thousands Of the
dcmestics who read your paper could
tell you q different story.
My mistress, in her purchasing, seems,
to forget that she has maid who must
have q certain amount Of food In order
to keep her health and be able to work.
There are four In the family, not count.
ing myself. and the mistress always
purchases for four, and rather skin,p-
ingly Mt that. She expects everything
prepared to be placed on the table, and
I am to get what Is left.

family had finished. entirely bare 9f
food Of any character. Where do come
in? The mistress keeps a careful &C;
when there Is nothing left after q meal, ,
and prepare several eggs for myself,
the mistress will come into the kitchen
and ask me: Where are the eggsI
purchased half a dozen yesterday. We
need butter. do we? just purchased a
pound yesterday"
She seems never to think OF my hav.
ing to be fed. never drink tea. and
after she learned this fact, she stopped
purchasing coffee and has tea every
meal. Your correspondent speaks about
her maid doing so much reading. She
must give the maid the opportunity !;
mine don't. During the day l never find
time to sit down, and am busy. until
o o'clock ut night. and II my mistress
catches me sewing or mendins, much
less reading, she will accuse me Of be;
ing extravagant with the electric light.
and insinuates that II was properly
employed I would find no time to sit
around evenings, and waste electric
light, when should be in bed resting
to conserve my strength. This IL an.
other aspect of the question.

Wants RemajnIno Verses

To the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir--I am very anxious to get the re-
naming verses Of poem which contains
the following:
They sat On the limb OF q crabapple tree.
A boogie. a spook and n little banshee.
And tho wind blew north and the wind blew
free.
And II was merry meeting.
The boosie had eyes rs big as q plate.
The spook wore shoes No. 20.
And the banshee covered her horrible pate
With o ghostly kind Of sheeting.
T. s. DOUGLAS.
