Ripping Rhymes
THE SECRET SORROW
BY Walt Mason

AS Boswell to James Beeswax Jing,
my task will soon be closed; he would
not smile or dance or sing, as optim-
lists proposed So men have said he
was crouch because he heaved no
smiles, but rose repining from his
couch, and groaned in many styles.
But ere he left these scenes of strife,
he said to me, sold scout, my relatives
have spoiled by life, and put me down
and out. Oh, / have uncles by the
score, who ate all l could earn, and I
nave n1eces twelve or more. and |
have aunts to burn. My wife has cous-
ms by the ton, and countless nieces,
too, and they would eat up the mon
that for my toll | drew. They lust
dropped in three times a day when
meals were on the board; with CLEAN.
ing fangs they came my way, on foot
or in ford. And I'd have fred each
hungry bore, but wife would not agree
the more that f1ivYered to our door, the
happier was she. l broke my springs
and stripped my gears providing tea
and toast, and thus through long and
weary years | fed hungry host. AnC
people thought me full of guile because
my face was grim; I couldn't dance
around and smile, or sing a hoop-ls
hymn" He breathed few despairins
pants, then his tired form was still,
and forty sons-in-law and aunts cried
Did he make a will?"

One Young Mans Opportunity

The eldest son of the late Henry P. Dawson,
the New York financier, has entered upon ca
reer that would cause no comment were he in
England, but which is unusual in this country
says the Indianapolis Star "He will devote HIM
self to public service He had the opportunity
to succeed his father in business life banker,
but the father made it clear that he would be
pleased if his son should devote himself to public
affairs After due deliberation and some time
before the elder Davisons death, the son made
his choice and as his first step became candi-
date for membership in the New York state leg
islature, and is now serving his first term.
"By his fathers will he is made millionaire
$4500,O00 being the bequest and he is therefore
free to do as he will with his life without con.
Germ for the means of living. It is great free
dom and if he makes wise use of his opportunity
he may accomplish much for his country. He is
evidently not visionary who plans to preach
reforms in advance of public sentiment, leaving
others to carry them out, but undertakes his
work in practical way. In fact, he speaks OF

his undertaking as practical politics. meaning
by this what Theodore Roosevelt meant, namely
the achieving of political reforms and honest
purposes by legitimate methods-the use of the
machinery provided by our institutions for such
service.
Theodore Roosevelt, who had but moderate
means, devoted himself to public life for the
good of his country. How far his ambitions went
when he entered the New York legislature is not
known of course, but he saw an opportunity to
serve in small way and took advantage of it,
and did the same for each opportunity that pre-
sented itself later. He went far and not many
careers will compare with his, but each man who
undertakes to serve the public honestly and
faithfully and spends his life in the cause will
achieve probably far more than he realizes. Gift
ford Pinchot is a rich man, who has devoted his
life to a special public service, and whether or
not he has succeeded in his effort to become gov
ernor of Pennsylvania, he has to his credit the
fact of having been leading spirit in the move
ment that has awakened the country to the i'm
portance of forestation.
Because of his wealth young Dawson will
be ranked by the jingoes and cheap agitators as
capitalist, and therefore corrupt, for there is
class of people who cannot conceive of a rich man
working unselfishly for public cause. But if
ice to his country, and what better should any
man want? Honest men of high purpose are
everywhere needed, in state and nation, in city
and village, and he has set fine example to his
countrymen."

stroyed. The accumulation of sand
and silt drifting into the depressed
open space through centuriese caused
the filling which has recently been
evacuated.

unknown strength, were outstanding
features today as voters of both par
ties prepared to nominate candidates
for United States senator and gov
ernor in the statewide primaries in
President Harding's nome state Tues
%day.
The attitude of these two elements,
1t in conceded, will largely determine
the makeup of the tickets. but thus
far there has been no indication they
will vote as a unit for any candidate.
An immense field entered for the Re-
publican nomination for governor, for
which there are nine candidates, and
divisions along other lines. has pre-
vented a qualification OF this vote, al
tho the union labor vote IN the con-
tests for the senatorship will be cast
against Senator Atlee Pomerene and
Congressman Simeon d. Tess, political
observers say.
It is not believed. however, labor
can defeat either veteran legislator,
and all prophets unite in predicting
their nomination.
