Copyright. 1922.
ROME, Italy, July 8.-The Italian
Confederation Of Labor. representing
1,250.00o laborers. has decided at the
annual congress in Genoa to continue
it's alliance with the Italian socialist
party and to urge the socialists to per-
init their parliamentary group to vote
for government which promises to
limit the action Of the fancisti and to
prevent the present terrorism exercised
agains. the socialists in many parts Of
Italy.
Hitherto the socialist party has al
ways been against the cabinet and its
125 4 deputies have constituted the
nucleus of the pcrmaine Mt parliamentary
opposition. But the apparent completely

bands that recently obtained the trans
fer from Bologna of Prefect Mori and
have now occupied by violent means
the city halls in Cremona, Rimini and
Adria after driving out the regularly
elected socialist administrations. togeth-
err with the general complacency with
which government officials observe fas-
cisti violences, has led the workers to
believe that their interests can best be
protected If the socialist deputies give
their votes to a friendly cabinet.
If the confederation's vote is accepted
favorably by the socialist party the COM
ing of a government of the left in the
Italian chamber may be expected.

that the middle class, the patron OF

taste and execution. In two months

High Standards Of Acting.
The theaters and opera houses
work under the greatest difficulties
. The pay of most of the artists would
not tempt an American truck driver
, to go to work. The more famous are

abroad But the average standard is
! extraordinarily high. The perform
ances of Shakespeare in particular
are brought off with vivacity and in
telligence. The singing at the ma
, tional opera house is. taking an av-
erage of all the principals Of per-
formances. fine.
Thus. though the audience has
changed for the worse. the artists OF
the Munich theaters have been car
rying on according to their ideals.
But Munich has been exceptionally
successful. Most of the provisional
cities already show the change in
the quality of their repertories and
performances. And the theater In
Berlin where the newly rich are su-
preme. has completely succumbed.
For most theaters the fine repertory
system has been abandoned. and the
stage is given over to long runs OF
dirty farces and tasteless operettas.
The writing of music, though II had
already fallen upon evil days before
the war. is still vigorous. though the
most 'uncompromising composers are
literally starving for their ideals.
Pictures are still painted in great
quantity, and the taste has not no
ticeably declined. although the young
er artists are tossed about among the
most extreme modern theories.

sizes are produced with exquisite to-
biography and binding. On the other
hand. current popular literature
seems thoroughly debased. Only the
sensational or the salacious is sold;
the serious and intelligent writer
cannot hnd market. 1t should be
said. however, to the honor of the
German publishers, that they still
print new scientific works in consid-
erable quantity, at financial loss.
Poetry Is sterile but interest in poetry
is still lively.
The German traditions in science
have been splendidly maintained. not
through the support of the new rich
but through the devotion Of the scien-
lists themselves. The hospitals of
Munich. for example, are amasing in
efficiency. Research work continues
restlessly. although the laboratories
are actually often too poor even to
purchase pure alcohol for expert
ments.
The universities are active. There
are in Munich more than $4,000

they can find no justification in the
facts of the life about them. Men:

Fortunately this cultural deterfora-

by increasing doses OF the most poi

RAZORBACK HOG HELD
CANDIDATE 70 MUSEUM
Florida Native Porkers Becoming
= Extinct, Says U. s. Depart
ment of Agriculture.

GAINESVILLE, Fla, July 8.-"Some-
body ought to have genuine Florida
razor-back mounted before they become
extinct They're hard to find now"
Thus does no less an authority than
the bureau of markets and crop esti-
mates of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture here officially
confirm the suspicion that the porker
around which so many yarns nave
been spun soon will be candidate
for the museum.
The Florida farmer is responsible
for the passing of pack of bones
and bristles chock full of mischief.
The "razorback or native hog, usually
could work his body into any place
his nose could enter. He was reared
on q farm, but was permitted to roam
the woods until he became half wild
and only a photograph could portray
the damage he could do once he
wormed his way into a plot of culti-
waited ground. AS an article Of food
he was worth little.
Florida farmers for several years
have been stocking their places with
pure bred swine and now have reach
ed the stage where discussion n~of
pigs pedigree is regarded as Of ex-
treme Importance. Cooperative sales
Of fine pigs, boys and girls pig clubs
organized and operated under the
supervision of county agricultural
ganizations Of hog breeders sounded
the death knell of the razorback.
There is every indication that the
razorback soon will be extinct. Flor
|idians have said his backbone formed
Fan edge sharp enough to cut fence
rail and many tourists believed the
old yarn that the hundreds of thou
sands of pine trees on turpentine
farms in the state, with the bark
chipped of on two sides to a height
of several feet, were damaged by the
razorbacks sharpening themselves
preparatory to cutting another fence.
Snakes and alligators are rarely seen
outside of, zoos and now the razor
back is passing.

NEW LIBRARY CATALOGUE

The new library catalogue shows that
there has been approximately 1000 new
books added to the library. Many books
formerly held as reference books have been
transferred into other classi6cations and
can be drawn in the regular way. Now,
that the new catalogues have been distri:
buted, is an opportune time to call your
attention to the fact that you should keep
from IS to 20 uncancelled numbers on
your library slip. In filling out your slips
be sure and make your figures plain and
do not crowd them together. The libra
rian has to read the name and numbers
and if they are not distinct you cannot
blame him if you do not get the books de-
sired. First and second gallery slips are
collected by the night captain on Sunday
and Wednesday evenings, and from the
third and fourth galleries on Monday and
Thursday evenings. Books are delivered
on the following day.

Radiantly in its celestial sphere it shown,
'Emanating ecstatic joy, to bodies terres-

Peace, song and mirth all earthly cares
displace.
Myriads of angels singing to harp and
Tyre,
Momentarily the infinite space did span,
Linking the immortal with mortal man,
BY harmonious strains from the seraphic
choir.
The unvoiced dreams of mortal hearts
were there
Divinely reproduced, share on celestial
Magnifcently transformed, more sublime,
more vast.
One feeting glimpse, yet it conveyed to
This wondrous truth in vivid reality;
"Filled with peace and rapture, thou art

Mary, dear sister, are you lost?
No! you are found;
To me, your BROTHER here on earth you're
lost;
But from Heaven l hear a sound,
The angels have gathered around you.
Oh, the beautiful songs they sing,
1 can hear their voices plainly
AS they around you circle in ring.
Dear sister o'mine,
l have counted months and years away,
In the morning and at evening,
Since you departed this earth that day.
For you were not only my sister, but friend
and pail
You were all in all to me,
God knows how much l miss you,
Every day think of thee.
Dear sister o'mine,
Many were the joys and pleasures
l shared in your company;
But since the day you went to heaven
Much of Life's brightness is lost to me.
For my thoughts forever dwell on you,
Now beyond the Crystal Sea.
Dear sister o'mine,
The River Jordan cannot divide
Our love that was stronger
Than the ever strongest tide.
Dear sister, your brother is praying
When the day that is to be,
That the Master will bid him welcome,
So he can join and forever be with thee.

THE QUEEN OF MAY

Hear the happy children sing,
Like the larks that heavenward wing,
AS they rally around the pole
Perched upon a grassy knoll;
Each with streamers in their hand,
Frolicing like fairy band;
Laughing, dancing in their play,
Proclaiming to all, it's May Day.
All, such excitement ne'er was seen
AS when they came to choose their queen !;
But soon it became very plain,
That none would do save sweet Lorraine
Fair as an angel from the sky
And as graceful as butterfly,
Fitting about on the grass so green,
Dancing the dance of the May Day Queen.
Whirling at the finish she courtesied to the
ground,
Thus with bowed head she was crown'd
With a wreath of flowers rich and rare,
Springs fairest offerings all were there
Lovingly entwined, embracing their stems,
Creating the finest of royal diadems;
cortege gay,
Sang, hail all hail the queen of May!
Such day can ne'er be forgot
To the mother gray, or the wee little tot;
Who laughed and danced and sang with
gee,
But still to small for queen to be.
Yet queen she was that very same night,
Crowned by fairies much to her delight
Who carried her off to wonderful scene,
Singing, hail all hail, the fairy queen
