When Bill Shake smote his boomin' Tyre
To edify the race,
He didn't set the world on fire
The world knew not his face.
He had TO go and sit and fish
And catch enough to eat:
Quite unrepaid his condish,
His purse 1t was depete
The people used to poke the fun
AT him and give him slams
But now his plays being done
BY half million hams.
They murder Shakespeare every night
From Halifax to Nome:
They chant his lays, often right
From Toxic to Rome.
They used TO laugh at what he taught,
And said he must be drunk
But still he wrote down every thought
That has been thunk.
They used TO think he a fool
To write things for the stage
But now his is the greatest school
And the dramatic rage
Take notice, boys, of old Bill Shake
And what they did to him.
Then buckle to your work and make
1t go with pen" and win.
Don't care what any may say
Don't give it up and sob;
You'll be hero sure, some day
If you stay on the job
They may ignore you and then
Or mean things may be said
But folks will recognize you when
You've been long time dead.

CLOSE BARS IS
ORDER SENT To

Lasker Acts on Daugherty's
Decision to Enforce Prohi-
bition at Sea.
By WILLIAM p. FLYTHE,
Universal Service.

Chairman Lasker OF the United
States Shipping Board has sent
wireless messages to all American
vessels on the high seas directing
them to close their bars Immediately.
snip masters were warned that
no liquor can be served after recciIr
or the dispatch. So anxious are of.
ucials that the decision of Attorney
General Daugherty be enforced that
Mr.. Lasker demanded acknowledge
ment of the order.
The following message was sent
TO all American operators:
The sale, transportation, or pos.
session OF liquor on ships opera ted
by you Is prohibited. | want to make
II clear that the sale or service of
liquor on American vessels should
be stopped at once, whether in port
or at sea.
Il want to have it thoroughly
understood by everyone concerned.
II you have not already done so

or in foreign ports and secure
acknowledgement to be sure there
IL no misundersta nding."
This action was made necessary
because Of some confusion concern.
ing the hastily drawn up regulations,
ii was said. Many operators believed
they could serve liquors on board
ship until they reached an American
port and telegraphed for instructions.
Officials of the Treasury and State
Departments are trying to straighten
out many of the tangles in the new
ruling. Department Of Justice ex'
perts are busy preparing legal
opinions in anticipation of court
action. American ship owners AS
well as foreign governments are ex-
peCted to violate the regulation to
force a test case. In this way, II
was said, II could be rushed to the
Supreme Court and a final decision
made. \
Shipping Board officials said tina t
while II was regretable IL was none
the less true that the decision would
do much harm to American shipping
especially in the Orient and Latin
American waters.
Whatever joy thers may be in en-.
forcing the regulations will not 90
to dry agents. Treasury experts
hold. Prohibition officers can not
interfere with foreign shipping. I
was said. Under the law they are
internal revenue agents and have
to confine their operators to sho:e
duty. Officials of the customs
service will be called upon to see
that there is no liquor on ships. II is
believed. This has been held in re.
cent court decisions.

BY JOHN r. ADAMS.
Chairman Republican National
C0n vultfa.

The Republican majority in the
Senate Of the next Congress will be
maintained. The House will have a
normal Republican ma jority. The
C a m pal ign Of Misrepresentation
launched against the present Con.
gress has failed Of it's purpose.
The agricultural sections OF the
United States know the condition
they were in when the Republican
party came into full control in
March, 1921. They know that from
the moment the present Congress
began to function, conditions began
gres and the Republican Administra-
ton are going to be endorsed in that
section Of the country.
Industrial Prosperity.
The situation in the industrial
centers is almost parallel with that
in the agricultural sections. Dem.
ocratic politicians cannot get rid Of
the very unplea asant fact that when
the present Administration came into
power. there were, in round numbers
5000, 900 men out OF work. This es
innate Of unemployed. March, 1921,
was made at that time by no less
Democratic authority than Samuel
Gompers. Such widespread unem-
ployment was not an accident. II
did not come about overnight. I'm
employment was serious as early as
the summer of 1920. when the Demo.
cratic Administration was IN tull
bloom.
Industrial wage.earners are gen.
orally employed today. The reports
of the United States Department OF
Labor ever since the summer OF
1921, after the influence OF the Re
publican Administration and the ef-
feet OF Republican legislation began
to be exerted, show a steady Increase
in the number of men and women
employed. Not only has the army OF
unemployed, which existed when this
Admin ,stratiOn came into power, I,
found employment, but II has fonnd
enrployment at a good wage. In
number OF basic industries wages
have been increased in the last y"'.f.
What Is true of the wage-earner
Is true of the business man. The IN.
creased activity which has marked
the industrial world in the last nine
teen months has given a tremendous
stimulus to all lines of business
Deadlock BOgie.
Conditions are improving every
day. Outside of the natural incl.
nation to give a vote of confidence
10 the Congress and the Administra'
ton which so largely contributed to
this improvement, is the certain
knowledge that in event a Demo
,rotio roporess were elected IL would
result in a deadlock" of the entire
governmental machinery. There
would be two years OF paralysis. and
much OF the good done thus far
would be lost. No further improve
ment would be made. The day OF
return to normal conditions would
de indefinitely postponed.
All Of these things have received
the serious consideration of the vot.
ing public and as a result there is
conviction among a decided majority
Of the people that public and private
business can be best served by the
election of q Republican Congress.

NEW YORK. Oct. 10.-Mrs. Enrico
Caruso, widow of the Italian tenor,
and her little daughter, Gloria,
abroad since April. returned by the
White Star liner Adriatic and were
greeted at the pier by Mrs. Carusos $
sisters, Mrs. F. w. Goddard and Mrs.
w. T. GIenny, and her brother, Ro-

Mrs. Caruso learned Of the death
of her father. Park Benjamin, and
her mother while in Italy. She met
her lawyer. Alfred E. Seligsberg. on
the pier and, after a consultation,
gave out this statement:
II have determined to join my
brothers and sisters to prevent not
merely an unjust disposition OF my
fathers estate, but to show now
utterly unjustified was the unnatu-
raj attack upon all the children.
Il cannot believe that father was
himself when he executed such a
will ! regret that the influence
which induced such a will must be
aired in court. They caused our
family, including my dear mother
much sorrow in fathers lifetime
and the result after his death is
most unfortunate to everybody con-
cerned.
1T is distressing to learn that
after mans death and before his
children can be heard a paper con.
tanning such cruel and unwarranted
statements rejecting upon every
one of his children can be filed in the
public records. ! cannot conceive
that such a will will stand"
