OPEN AIR SCHOOLS.

During tho war thousands Of chill
dren In France were huddled In homes
and schools--and some OF the exiled
ones In barracks even-away from the
open air because of the daily menace
In their skies. Many children lived in
cellars or caves and many attended
schools In subterranean places. Some
had even TO carry gas masks to pro-
tect them from tho poisons I'm the mir
on their way to and from school or et
their lessons. The terror OF fhe bomb

those valleys, but the pcstllonce tthe

NEIGHBORS NOTICE 1T.

Both New York and Chicago are so
large that they are sufficient unto
themselves and are indifferent as to
what the rest OF the world says or
thinks of them For that matter,
much Of New York's population seems
ignorant OF the existence Of human
life outside the boroughs which make
up Greater New York and some day a
modern Conan Doyle will mount a
lecture platform and charm New
Workers by description OF life and
customs in other parts of the United
States.
Yet IL there are residents of the two
great cities who hear OF the outside
world they must feel annoyed now
and then at the continued reference
made by the outsiders to crime waves
for no matter bow indifferent one may
be to his neighbors, he is likely to re-
sent their criticism OF affairs in his
own home and that is Just what the
neighbors OF New York and Chicago
are now doing. Even now Boston
paper asserts that 1t has five men al
work in the borough of Manhattan
studying the records in police stations
courts and prohibition headquarters
so as to secure data as to New York's
wickedness.
The borough In question has 9
population Of 2.2S4.103 and since the
beginning Of the present year 1t has
seen 101 homicides and 22l holdups
and robberies. During the four weeks
ended on Tuesday last the record was

FRENCH PRESS ON GENOA.

The Communist organ Humanite
bitterly attacks the Poincare govern
ment today for its stand against
Bolshevism at Genoa Referring to
grave incidents which risk the life
of the conference" provoked by M.
Barthou, II says; 'Barthou manifest
ly excited the irritation OF Lloyd
George and Schanzer In reopenins the
incident OF the Hapallo pact and then
suspending the experts work on the
Russian Question" Referring to the
British criticism of France at Genoa,
the Temps says tonight: There are
people who reason thusly-Rathenau
and Chicherin treated behind the con-
ference's backI therefore a check up
of the conference was sought by Pre-
mier Poincare. Rathenau and Chich-
ous for France; therefore the person
responsible for this entente is Barthou.
We are not asking for thanks but we
have a right to expect our English
allies to understand that their interest
is tied up with ours and that our
country's danger makes us clairvoy-
ant. Give us credit for not being
blind or destructive"
The Journal des Debats signals an
effort to throw the blame on France.
/ In 1914 the Berlin and Vienna Cabi-
nets used every ruse TO make Russia
or France take the initiative in
hostility. To-day" it says, "the So
Wet delegates, who regard France as
their principal enemy, are allied with
the Germans against us. Unfortu-
nately they benefit by singular com
plaisances. 1t is no reason for us not
TO remain calm--quite the contrary. >

DAYLIGHT SAVING.

Daylight Saving went into operation
in Wilmington. yesterday, and will
continue uninterruptedly for period
OF hve months, ending on the first
Sunday In October. It's arrival wac
welcomed, no doubt. by large majori-
ty OF our citizens.
This saving OF an hour of daylight
each day for rccreationnl purposes
consists In simply turning all time
pieces ahead an hour and conducting
all the affairs of life In accordance
with this change. Its result is. simply.
that we get up an hour earlier in the
morning and 20 to bed an hour earlier
each night. And II Is surprising how
easily we accommodate ourselves to
this change, so that under the new
system our daily conduct seems as
regular and orderly ae during the re-
maindcr of the year.
Unfortunately, the change is now
brought about by local regulations
| only, and Is not as completely eate-
/ factory as though II was n national

summers II prevailed under an act of

The benefit of daylight saving, ever

HOME.

HOME.
Here's where the sweetest laughter
rings.
Here's where the praise is good,
Here's where the merriest robin sings.
And not in the distant wood
Here at the end of my little street
Is all that maketh nfes struggle
sweet.
Here's where the fairest OF blossoms
grow.
Modest, and small and few;
Here ID the friendliest tree I know.
Faithful and staunch and true;
Here in these walls by the weather
stained
Is all the splendor of life contained.
Here's where the mother and child
await
The day and its toiling end,
Here by the side Of our humble CRATE
We welcome our truest friend;
over this roof as the years go by
Are the brightest stars and the clear
est sky.
Here are my dreams and the distant
goal,
Here Is the life l build,
This am striving for, heart and soul;
Here till my hands are stilled
Always and ever 1 want to see
Love at the window on watch for me.
Nothing of Joy could my strength at

II ever these walls should fall;
Pomp and glory and wealth were vain
| Were TO possess them all,
II there was no home on a little street
To make the struggle for victory sweet.

A SOVIET sURE-THING BET.

Nothing more Joyous has come out
of Genoa than the contention OF NJ.
Rakovsky that the Russian Soviet
government. having nationalized
property. cannot return 10 investors in
other countries their property IN Rus
sia, while on the other hand, having
nationallzed property, it can collect
for itself property of Russians in
other countries.
To take an extreme example which
Nj. Rakovsky in principle accepts.
John Jones of London has 10 rubles
in Russian bank and Pan Andreye-
witch OF Petrograd has rubles in a
London bank. The Soviet govern
ment claims the right TO take all the
10 rubles neither Jones nor Andreye-
Witch has any rights In the matter. II
England wants to keep Pan Andreye-
vtch's 5 rubles. let her turn Com
munist and nationalize IL.

RIPPLING RHYMES.
By Walt Mason.
FLAPPERS,

My aunt WAS once a fiapper,
and tapped rebellious wings;
but now she Is a scrapper for
old, time-honored things. I've
heard some CHASTITY rumors that
when she was eighteen she wore
a pair of boomers upon the viii
lage green. And there were
protests priestly. and every
righteous dame denounced her
course as beastly. and said it
was a shame. The moral weekly
paper gave auntie half q page,
and said her shameful caper
discredited the age. Revolt was
auntie's passion, when she was
young and fair; she rode a horse
man fashion, and bobbed her
sorrel hair. The fiappers now
around US imagine they're
unique, determined to confound
us by some unseemly freak
But it's old stuff. my masters;
the damsels of tho past were
wont to shock their pastors.
and make them stand aghast.
We see the pullets moulttng as
hens have always done, and
damsels were revolving way back
in 'S1. My aunt was busy flap
ping In bygone sunny springs.
and now we hear her yapping
for old and changeless things.
And maidens now rebelling
against the whichful whence,
when older will be yelling that
young girls have no sense.
