RUDE RURAL RHYMES
Fast Time

o in the good old pre-war days, which all sane men delight to praise, when Phoebus chased away the dark, the farmer rose as did the lark. Since legislative Jabberwocks began to tinker with the clocks and strive, like Joshua, at will to move the sun or held it still, he now must rise ere peeps are heard from any self res pecting bird. The gent who brings fresh milk to me was wont to start to town at three. To pail that milk for you and John, he had to quit the hay at one. In his snug bed he might not tarry for fear of kicks from Dick and Harry. But now i'll summer, spring and fall the milk man never sleeps at all, for when he takes the downward track he meets himself just coming back. We view old Sol with grave alarm when summer days are overwarm, but when we ask what time it is, that ple-faced planet Is q whiz. I'll tell the world the job is bis. And so I dedicate rhyme to this here daylight slaving time.

talists, with but one idea-to down the poor workingman.
 With ignorance after q time comes indifference. The mere fact that one holds a job or position, at which it has been possible to perform the usual duties in desultory manner now and then, with no deductions made on the pay check, is conclusive evidence that the company has a bottomless treasure chest. Then comes indifference as to both quan- tity and quality of work performed, so long as it passes muster by the immediate executive. The natural outcome is dissatisfaction. Then in order to appease the desire for an intangible something, one of two things is usually considered the ailment-the wages of the working man or the working conditions of the workingman.
 When the ailment has progressed to certain stage the uncomfortable condition is given temporary relief by talking about it. Then comes a union meeting, with the same ignor- ance of and disregard for essentials, at which spectacular oratory fans the spark of discontent into a flame of hatred, injustice and eiudice. A strike follows.
 So-called labor leaders in order to hold their jobs prate about the evils of the soulless corporations, whose slave-driving executives will squeeze the last drop of blood from a man and then discharge him. Rank pro- paganda. But as long as such men draw large salaries for throwing oil on the flames of discomfort, what care they for the suffering of strik- ing brothers?
 Big, business generally was at the mercy of it's employees for the past several years-for which the public paid. Now the time has come when the public is asking questions and is no longer willing or able to pay ex- horbitant charges. The result is that the working man or woman must realize they must stand their share Pof decreased profits Strikes to en- force anything different will prove futile and will result in only greater losses to the working people,

COUNTY PRESS CLUB

A new disease has broken out in Litchfeld County and while it is confined to practically only two places at present, it is thought the entire county will be infected within a short time. It is not an obnoxious disease; in fact we believe those who contract it will be rather delighted with it's effects. An analysis reveals the fact that the germ or "bug" breeds on good fellowship and in terest in the newspaper game. The mingled sensations which accompany the disease are joy, love of the game, interest in the craft and a broader aspect of the game generally.
 The only requirements, insofar as we have been able to learn, are that candidates for membership must testify to the fact that they have been inoculated with a germ, which, through propagation results in the victim being actively engaged in the newspaper business, in an editorial or business capacity. The entrance requirements therefore should serve as protection against other germs antagonistic to our particular bugs. Furthermore, interest will center on one subject only--the advancement of the craft for public and personal benefit.
 Now it has been proposed that when a sufficient number contract the disease, that they forthwith get together under the name of the Litchfeld County Press Club. Once this has been accomplished they take a very solemn oath which binds them to rest neither day or night until every person eligible has been laid low with the sickness and promises never to seek cure, Bugs or germs are generally considered an abom- ination, but we have the word o1 such famous scientists as Lou Stone George Peterson and others that this one will receive warm reception.
 The next step for members of the craft interested in this bug is tt render opinions that conference may held for the purpose of viVi section.

A LOSING FIGHT

While this and nearby towns of similar size are affected by the rail road strike in small way only, com pared to cities, interest is undoubted- ly more widespread than in larger places. Cities with large foreign population are partially the cause for this condition in which indifference and ignorance of happenings outside their small sphere are of little inter est And it is these same two quail ties which are playing no small part in the present strike. By this is not meant illiteracy nor ignorance of the varying degree of expert knowledge which the several branches of rail roading require.
 The ignorance to which we have reference is relative to the admins tration of such a gigantic business system and proposition as are the railroads. The very magnitude of the undertaking is beyond the com prehension of the average man. While the men who keep the wheels turning may be able to tell the quail ifcations of an engineer or a con- ductor, or the requirements of a roadbed, they are at complete loss when dollars and cents--profts and loss-are brought up for considera- tion. Ignorance of these essentials leads to speculation of the rankest sort, in which the. chief officials of the railroad are always bloated capi-

The Rnoster

The rooster is a lusty bird; in all the land his voice is heard, a proud and naughty bird by heck who t!aps his wings and curves his neck. From east to west, from perch to pole, his morning bugle echoes roll, arousing men from snoring deep and maidens from their beauty sleep. He hunts for worms with main and might, and finding one, with huge delight, to whet his harem's appetite, he calls his wives with trill and hum, then, humor great but manners bum. he eats it up before they come. Now whether Red or Plymouth Rock one half is he of all the flock, and chickens mostly favor dad in quail ties both good and bad. But when the matching seasons over we must restrain this gallant rover, must shut him up in lonely state and keep the layers celibrate. Their eggs will thus repay our. toll when fertile ones would quickly spoil. The man who'd be a fresh egg booster must seggregate that old he rooster.
