ART AND THE MOVIES.
BY s. Z. KISER.

THE saddened critics are complaining
Il About the "art" in movie shows;
Condemning the excessive straining,"
They mourn the absence Of "repose."
According to the critic, zero
Is registered in movie "art."
Because the handsome superhero
Tears realism all apart.
THE critic always thinks it's treason
L To art, that is, when picture plays
Depart from logic and from reason
And penetrate untrodden ways.
But what care | about such trifles?
Let life be sordid, if it will;
Why be artistic, If art stiles
The effort to impart thrill?
I WANT to see the villain thwarted
L And all his evil plans upset;
| tingle, watching the assorted
Mishaps that fill him with regret.
Fling realism to the dickens,
Let art and. logic both go, too;
For me the plot that always thickens,
The virtue that comes bravely through.
WHAT if hellovely maiden hurries
W., Where evils lurk, as she must know
That is the least of all my worries,
Il helps to make the fillum "go."
Away with critics! Let the structures
They pen disturb your soul no more;
When 90 in to see the pictures
Icheck my logic at the door.

No Money for Soldiers,
BUT

~ HERE is much talk about
buying buildings in which
q the various foreign ambassa-
dors may be housed abroad.
The idea is that gentlemen Sc
lected to be ambassadors abroad
should live in suitable style.
Nobody seems to know just
what suitable style" for one
supposed to be representing a
republic and a DEMOCRACY
would be. The general idea is
that "suitable style" would be
a palace of the first class, with
plenty of room for flunkies with
powdered hair in the hall and
dining room, large drawing rooms,
etc.
An ambassador only gets about
seventeen thousand dollars a year
at most, and it seems to some of
our officials "cruel' to expect
him to house himself.
All this will interest soldiers
who have been told that the ma
ton can't "AF'FORD" any
bonus.
If the nation can't afford a
soldier bonus, if the Republican
party can't afford to keep the
word and promise of its own plat
form, and give the men what they
ought to have, how can it afford
to buy palaces in European capi-
tails for ambassadors" that are
in reality no more than exalted
and well-paid messenger boysi

OBEYING ORDERS
By ANGELA MORGAN.
VVTHEN woman seeks carnation to
" twine in her hair;

VYYHEN a woman seeks carnation to
" twine in her hair;
w When a woman with decoration would
make herself fair,
Say not she is trivial, thoughtless or proud
or vain,
Say MT she is empty of wit who would scorn
When 10 woman with beautiful eyes looks up
at her lover
Lo, sHe is answering swiftly summons
above her;
Lo, thsre is secretly sounding a clarion word
BY otEfr ears unheard.
She is obeying orders far greater than we
may know.
Look !fShe tries a jeweled rosette and then
Little she dreams of the infinite pattern
Little she knows how she follows larger
command
Fiat Of nature or love or whatever you
please
Hidden design of forces higher than these
Call it the human will or the Will Divine,
Something beyond your vague volition or
She is obsying a Word high up, my friend,
(You nortI any other may see the end)
All we know is the lovers eloquent sigh,
Leap of the olden fame from eye to
Out of their love new lives, new worlds shall
spring,
Out of their quest the (futures) quest have
answerings
Buckle your shoe, dear maid-be fair as you
will.
Beauty and n: are shaking this planet still!

Builders of
Civilization

IN the adjoining picture few
ignorant men are hacking at
the foundations of civilization.
1t is foolish work, for if the
structure fell they would be
among the first to be crushed.
Our present order has many
faults, but the axe, the bomb and
the torch would not make it
better.
In an interesting article by
Maxim Gorky in a recent paper,
you may have noticed this SEN
tence:
People want to eat as much as
possible and work as little as
possible; they want to have all
the rights and have no duties.
That is true of the destructive
forces in human society. 1t is not
true Of the constructive forces.
Maxim Gorky has been living
amid scenes in which destruction
has been more obvious than con-
struction, but such scenes are rare
the normal of life is the anthill
or coral reef, where in ordered
ranks the workers build.
People want to eat because they
have to eat to live, but when their
work is made creative and at
tuned to their spirit they do not
dodge or skimp it-they find the
work-day too short.
There is a growing clamor for
rights from folk not half so keen
about the attendant duties.
But in fairness let us not over
look the great multitude of men
and women who are conscious of
their duties, and conscientious
and patient and continuously dill
gent in unobtrusive performance
of them.
Even in times of greatest up
heaval, such as those through
which the world has just been
passing, these builders of civiliza-
tion outnumber the wreckers.
The great majority of them are
modest folk who get and want no
publicity; who, indeed, do not
know that they are doing any
thing valuable or heroic.
They toll and sacrifice and plan
and save because it is in the ma
ture of man to do so.
But if we wish to speed the
constructive processes and make
less popular the tendency to hack
at their foundations we should put
a little more appreciation around
the builders.

DEPOSITORs TO BE FINGER-PRINTED

All postal savings depositors must now be
finger printed. This supplements the present
