THE MAN WHO SIGNED

Arthur Griffith, the man who signed the treaty
between Ireland and England which De Valera is
trying to block, used to put the name of "Cuguan'
to some of his articles in the United Irishman.
That has a kind of Gaelic look, but in reality is
Kafir Padrac Colum tells the New York Tri-
bune that it means 'The Dove" or "The Gentle
One" Griffith may indeed be hailed as a har-
binger of peace if the treaty goes through One
thing that commendS Griffith to many people is
his opposition to Larkinism When James Larkin,
the rough, not to say tough, customer from Aus
tralia provoked labor troubles in Dublin, Griffith
bitterly opposed him. For that hideous crime
many of the mtants still describe him as a re-
dictionary. Padriac Colum paints a picture of
him as a man that Belfast will look upon as "a
safe and sane Irishman of the South That
would seem to be a pretty good type of leader for
the south of Ireland to rely upon in these troub-
lous times. 1t is interesting to note that Grit
fifth is a man with trade, and one of the best
He is a compositor. He founded the United Irish
man and not only did the bulk of the writing in
its early days but helped to set up the paper on
Tuesdays. He is declared to be one of the great
est political journalists Ireland has produced
and it has been the birthand of many brilliant
political writer's. They say in Dublin that Crit
fifth writes with an iron pen. But he puts into
his articles, whenever the opportunity offers, de-
lghtful humor. When he deems it necessary he
can be terrifcally satirical If the Irish Free
State comes into being it will be a monument to
Griffith and a triumph for a conciliatory, friendly
man who knew the proper moment when "to take
occasion by the hand"

RUBBISH

Old Hiram Jones says he saw a tree
A-lying out in the street today
Waiting in front of Jones's house
For the rubbish man to cart away.
And you wouldn't have thought that a few
days since
1t had place on kind of throne
Where rugs were soft and the air was warm,
And lights and gladness shone,
And children laughed as they plucked the
toys
That its branches bore, all me,
You wouldn't have thought had you seen it
today,
1t was ever a Christmas tree.
Old Hiram Jones says he saw bunch
OF prisoners down at court today,
Shorn by the law of pride and hope
Awaiting their time to be locked away,
And you wouldn't have thought had you
seen them there
Faces expressionless as stone,
That each of the lot had one time been
A kind of king on a kind of throne
With father whose heart was full of them
And mother whose JOY of life were they
Old Hiram says he saw bunch
OF prisoners up in court today.

when our wads were SO diminished
that we couldn't build shack; and the
landlords, profteering, came like
shearers from the shearing, truculent
and domineering, to remove our little
stack. Now we build our little shan
ties, build our neat, three -conered
sheds, and our grandmas and our
aunties will have roofs oyer their
heads; and they'll plant sweet peas
and lilies and materials for chilis,
and the rent hogs have the willies as
they curl up in their beds. Oh, the
better days are coming when the
building booms begin, and the plumb
ers they are plumbing, and the timers
gayly tin; every gent will have his
cottage where the flies succumb to
swattage, where he'll eat his humble
pottage-and the rent hogs growing
thin! WALT MASON.

This is story that told in Tennessee We will
not vouch for the truth of it. However in position
to state that business who advertise in The Columbus

this to be fact because they tell us

COPY-BOOK MAXIMS

Professor W. B. Pollock, of Meridian, is adj
vocating another copy-book maxim to be used in
the schools playing in the streets is dangerous
He feels sure that if the children were compelled
to write this in their copybooks there would be
marked decrease in accidents to children.
Nevertheless, we can remember many worthy
maxims that we wrote in our copybooks at school
which, had we but taken them to heart, would
have saved some of us older folks a good deal of
later trouble We can remember them perfectly
all the way from the early bird to the stitch in
time the silk purse and the sows ear, the more
haste and the less speed, the look before the leap
and all the rest of them. But somehow they al
ways remained abstract maXims not necessarily
intended for personal application
However it is pleasant to know that Professor
Pollock still retains his faith in copy-book max
inns and evidently an ardent belief that the mod
ern child is more receptively impressionable than
previous eras.

The following article appeared in
The Pioneer, high school paper pub
lished by the South High School
Grand Rapids, Mich. This paper is
"by the pupils and for the pupils.
Because of this fact, the editorial on
music is all the more significant
We received hint that it might have
been prompted by teacher Of music
but what does that matter? The i'm
portant fact is that the students con-
sidered the editorial Of enough i'm
portance to devote the editorial space
to the subject. This is the editorial:
Is Music Related to School Life?
at is not until recent years that
much consideration has been given to
music as a part of public school edu-
cation. The average American thought
of music as an establishment of some
sort, not as a necessity.
But the inroad which music has
made into the life of the public school
during the past ten years seems to
indicate that the general public is
coming to recognize and accept, more
and more, the vital Importance which
music holds in relation to our every
day life.
eve find music in all the grades
given by teachers who have
specialized in such work. Careful
study has been made in different
places to determine what is the best
suited for the needs of the pupils at
the different stages in their school
life. Always, the idea has been tc
bring the pupil into closer touch witt
good music and better music, through
bands, orchestras, glee clubs, choruses
and special courses.
"Many people have become alarmed
over the craze for jazz Music which
has been so evident of recent years
1t is not the purpose of this editorial
to condemn jazz Music; surely a
little bit of it ought to go long
way. But you can't get rid of Jazz
merely by it's condemnation; you must
make them want something else and
give them something else before you
take away what they already have anc
can appreciate.
"And an appreciation of better mu-
sic can only be brought about by ar
education in music, step by step. Tho
pupils in literature classes are not
to know how to appreciate
the great literary works until they
have been several years of cearful
and consistent work. Why
should anything different be expected
in the music work, for is not music
the literature of notes?
"And is not the school in a position
to do more toward bringing about
ssch an appreciation in a larger num-
Der of people than any other one or
ganization is able to do!

American moving-picture companies insist upon
a heavy tariff on foreign films, declaring that the
employees of the studios in the United States can
not live on the parsmonious wages paid in Ger
many, France and other countries that have en-
barked in the moving picture game. This is
probably true as to certain outrageous salaries of
alleged stars which might with profit be reduced.
This would mean a reduction in admission to the
theaters which would not be a bad thing for the
people at large

DECLINE AND FALL

At the recent State convention of supervisors
of music in Michigan it was suggested that all
Jazz be barred from the public schools. No
positive action was taken, but it was the sent-
ment of those present that the Jazz fever was
waning fast and that by simply discouraging the
stuff it would soon die of itself. Now that about
all the means and groans and CHASTITY tones have
been trapped and exhibited there are no fresh
fields in the jazz domain. Even the merry dancers
have found that for a steady diet it is finer and
easier to frolic to the music of sober and re-
fined orchestra than to the CHASTITY revels of
Jazz band. The jazz has had its season-an un-
usually long one-and another generation is at
the door ready to give it the AK. 1t may be able
to furnish its own requiem, but that is about ALL

THE MARINE CORPS

The Marine Corps has done itself
proud in guard duty about the mails.
This service is one of the best pos

combat organizations in every war,
