SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

The Pick and Shovel Man.
A soviet bunch
once had hunch
that they would dig ditch.
Each thought he knew :
Just who was who
and also which was which.
The talent rare
assembled there
made up 4 clamorous clan.
Nope felt that he
should merely be
a pick and shovel man.
In grand powwow
they raised row
until Of voice bereft.
They ran a bill
: and spent until
there was no money left.
That ditch. alas,
ne'er came to pass
mid skill to boss and plan,
Because, you see,.
not one would be
the pick and shovel man.

-, Deleterious Imitation.
Don't you sometimes lose faith in
human nature?"
Never" replied Senator Sorghum.
You can always depend on human
nature for. generous actions and un-
prejudiced opinions. That refers, Of
course. to genuine human nature,
which isn't always so easy to find. A
good many people feel that they have
to depend. on artifice and dissimula-
ton. Human nature, my friend, Is all
right. What makes the trouble in So
ciety is the de-natured human"

AFRAID OF SANTA
Black Tots at African Mission
Make for Place of Safety.
Confidence to the Men, Women
and Riddles.

\ N AMUSING story of how Santa
"A Claus frightened the black chill
dren at a mission station when he
first appeared to them a few years
ago, is told by the wife of mission
airy stationed at Bailunda, Africa.
They had celebrated Christmas at Bal
lunda before, but they never had had
Santa Claus; so Mr.. Slower, the mis-
slonary, dressed up as good Saint Nick.
"He had been padded and powdered
and packed until his own mother
would not have known him." Mrs.
Slower afterward related. presently
we gave the signal, the door flew open
and in walked Santa Claus. But, dear
me! What CONSERVATION He was
greeted with shrieks and grOans and
cries Of Let me out! 1t is the evil

people, fled to their bedrooms, fell
down upon their faces, crept under
chairs and tables-anywhere to hide

soon as he realized the panic he had

The girls arranged their bright-hued

The CHRISTMAS TABLE
Little Things That Add Much to
Success of Home Day.
How the Housewife Can Prepare Deli
cacies That Will Appeal to Both
Old and Young.

THE housewife can indulge in these
only in the earliest of her preparations
for the Christmas dinner, says Coun-
try Life in America. Soon she must
closely consider the feast which will
be suitable to her own household and
purse. If she is a wise house wife, she
will not make her festival over-elabo-
rate, whatever the size Of her income.
She will want something more than
wine and waters and rose" but she
will find that, if she puts her own best
efforts into the decorate ms, and ca
ters with thought for the tastes and
fancies and little memories of those
she is to serve, she will have charm
ing dinner, whatever the number of its
courses.
Much Of the pleasure of the Christ
mas dinner depends upon small things.
This is the occasion for the most
choice OF the jelly and pickles which
have been stored up In the simmer.
or course, there must be celery and
cranberry sauce, and the housewife
will, If possible, have some small
thing that is new to her household
a little luxury that comes in glass, if
the cost must not be heavy, or, If she
need not think of that, some far
fetched dainty with the international
interest of coming from Japan or from
the Philippines.
Dessert allows ample opportunity
for small pleasures and surprises.
One can hardly believe child's hap
piness complete without raisins and
almonds to eat in tiny sandwiches and
as philopenas. One always hopes to
see the old-fashioned kinds of candy
at Christmas-striped sticks and clear
sticks, and barley sugar, chocolate
creams, and gum-drops. They are
pretty for the table, and not bad for
children, and older people like them
for the sake of long-ago Christmas.

IRISH ELECTIONS
 ARE BEING HELD But Little Excitement Marks
 Early Hours of Polling

Dublin, June 16. (By Associated Press)-Poling in the parliamentary elections began at eight o'clock this morning and in all the Metropolitan districts the election clerks reported an average activity. There were few crowds and no excitement. Steady streams of voters of all classes and both sections filed into the polling places. No interference with the vot- CTS was reported.
 The property classes were in the majority in the mornings voting, and the inhabitants of the fashionable squares in the southern part of Dub in who had been expected to abstain were out in considerable numbers.
 The workers are expected to poll largely in the evening and the voting time has been extended to nine o'clock for their convenience.

days. The most noted of these spry young college lads is former Senator Cornelius Cole, whose 100 years make ] him Wesleyan's oldest alumnus. He made the trip from California, accompanied by his grandson, and said he felt fine after the trip. He makes little of his longevity, explain ing he doesn't think an exceptionally long life is anything especially desir- able. He says:
 T don't know how and why I have ial rules. I smoke I eat what I want and I have drank considerable liquor in my time.
 He was born at Lodi, N. Y, when Monroe was president, and was grad | uated from Wesleyan in 1S47 with twenty-two others, taking the degree of bachelor of arts. He was admitted to the New York state bar at Oswego, and just before the gold rush of 1S49, he and six companions went to Cali fornia, which he represented in the thirty-eighth congress. He was active
 in the passage of anti slavery legisa- tion, and recalls frequent conferences with President Lincoln in Civil War days.
 Senator Cole was accompanied by former Senator Watson c. Squire Of Seattle, Wash, eighty-four years old, a trustee of Wesleyan, from which he graduated in 1859. He was gover- nor of Washington when that territory was admitted to the Union and be- came the first senator from that state,

Treaty Signed in December.

| The Anglo-1rish treaty, signed last 1 December, under which the Irish Free
 State is being created, provided for the formation of an Irish parliament. The act to give the treaty effect.
 passed by the British parliament in l March, stipulated that elections to a l provisional parliament for the Free State should be held "as soon as may l be" after the passage of the act. These are the elections being held in Ireland today. The parliament so elected is to pass upon the constitu- tion for the Free State under which a permanent parliament for southern Ireland will be chosen.
 Lacking any constitutional division of the country into districts for the present election, the act of the Brit ish parliament stipulated that the prospective members be nominated from the constituencies which elect ed members to the parliament chosen under the Government of Ireland Act of 1920. Elections were held in southern Ireland that year under this act, but the parliament never came into being. Instead the members elected were declared by the Irish republican government at that time to constitute the membership of the Dali Eireann, or republican parlia-
 ment which, since the adoption of
 the Anglo-1rish treaty, has been al-
 lowed by the British government to function as virtually the recognized legislative body for southern Ireland
 It was the Dali Eireann, for instance,
 which passed upon the Anglo-Irish
 treaty itself, ratifying it, as will be
 recalled, by majority of seven votes.
 Contests Were Predicted.
 It was contemplated by the Brit
 ish government and originally by the
 Irish Provisional government headed
 by Michael Collins. that today's cleo
 tions should be freely contested and
 should virtually constitute a plebis- cite of southern Ireland on the ques- ton of the treaty and the proposed constitution. The opposition to such q plebiscite on the part of the repub-, lican faction, led by Eamonn de Val era, was so determined however, that late in May an agreement was reach ed between the Collins and de Valera factions that candidates previously agreed upon should be nominated by the two factions, comprising virtually an official slate, the members being chosen in the proportion in which the two factions are now represented in the Dali Eireann. or with a slight preponderance for the Collins party

The Jones-Miller anti-narcotio bill,

preventative measure adopted by
any country In the world dealing
with the manufacture and distribu.
ton Of opium and other life-sapping
drugs, became the law of the land
today through the signature Of

manufacture Of narcotics for
medicinal purposes only, and pre-.
vent the shipment OF drugs to and

Millions Of lives will be saved

The calling OF q world council to
arrange for controlling the pro.
ducton, manufacture and sale Of
narcotics in other countries Is being
considered by Federal authorities
as the next step In the fight TO
stamp out the dope" evil through
out the world.
The measure. which became a
law today, increases the penalty
imposed on Illicit drug dealers and
importers TO ten years" imprison.
ment and a fine Of $1,000.
In addition to ~ Federal narcotic
