THE OUTCAST

Reginald Wright Kaufman
They would not hear him. How they smiled
That he, who talked with courtesans
Who said: "Be led as by a child"
Who supped with low-browed publicans
Should dare to preach! A hare-brained boor
A rustic in city stew
They could not listen-that was sure
They could not listen then; can you?
And when he turned to violence,
Assaulting brokers-men of peace
The priests themselves, in self-defense,
Surrendered him to the police
A sweat-staned working man to them,
They jeered him up the hill of death;
This carpenter of Bethlehem,
Jesus, this chap from Nazareth.
What has been shall be; so today
In strict accordance with the law
We boot the jay and turn to slay
We send our Christs to Golgotha;
Where rotting novels bring the rents,
Where there is darkness and disgrace,
Where there are "model tenements"
We keep the rascas in their place
And so, in children bleached by toll
In Working-wOmen starved to shame,
In farm-hands fettered to the soil,
In trades you scarcely dare to name,
In shop and office, mine and mill
With bloody brow and riven side,
With hands that wrought your safety still
VIRTUES Labor, crowned and crucfied.

EDITORS POOR EVERYWHERE

A visitory to a 81 al town lost
his dog. an animal which he priced
very much. Rushing to the office of
the local newspaper, he handed in
an advertisement offering five shill-
lings reward for the return of the
dog.
Half an hour later he thought he
would add to this advertisement the
words: "No questions asked" So
he hurried off to the office again.
When he got there the place was
empty save for a small boy who
looked very sulky.
where's the staff?" asked the
tourist, glancing around the de-
serted room.
"Out looking for your dog!" was
the retort.-London Tit-Bits.

But Harding, in his great wisdom,
Has outdone all such feats,
He's given US prosperity

And if We'll tighten up our belts.
Some time he'll make US fat.

state of the expanding nation. One

The old-type examinations were
excellent examina tions for securing
men and women who could turn in
and teach a school from the iirst t"
the eighth grade. 1t has been said
that the person who could pass the
old civil service examinations best
was bright eighth grade pupil, who
had not had time to forget how to
work mathematical problems, who
yet remembered all his grammar
rules, who had a fresh hold on spell
ing and from whom Father Time
had not wrested the exact locations
of cities and towns and the bound
aries Of states.
The falsity in the theory of those
old exams" lay in the fact that they
were not to secure school teachers,
but people who could handle the null
titude of practical questions compris-
ing the civil work of the govern
ment. A man might be able to work
in the most excellent fashion on
land cases and yet not be able 80
fathom one of those old 'rithmatic
problems for his life's sake. A man
might be genius in dealing with IN
dians, both taxed and untaXed. and
still not be able to correctly bound

their reservation.

Senator Hitchcock,

Mr.. Hitchcock wants another term
in the Senate. The formal announce.
ment has just been made. The pri.
mary election will be held July 1s.
When Mr.. Bryan left Nebraska
there were those who jumped to the
conclusion that the change OF resi-.
dence would be greatly to the advan.
tage of Mr.. Hitchcock; that the latter
would now be the undisputed master
of the democratic situation in the state
and able to mold things to suit him.
self.
This was hasty. Mr.. Hitchcock has
a contest on his hands. There is op.
position to his denomination. A farm.
ers' movement is on, and the anti.
Wilsonites in the party are not
pleased with Mr.. Hitchcock's record
as a Wilsonite in the Senate. In the
primary campaign he will have some
thing to explain.
Mr.. Bryan is 50 active always, and
SO certain to appear IN some way IN

Sewage in Rock Creek.

Discovery of sewage in the waters
Of Rock creek where the children
bathe makes its necessary to check
the use of this water until it can be
purified. Obviously the youngsters
cannot be permitted to use the creek
so long as there is any possibility that
they will contract typhoid or other
diseases borne by sewage. The exam
nations thus far made show the water
TO be in bad condition. 1t is known
that in several districts north OF
Washington sewage is turned into
Rock creek. The suburban sanitary
commission is now to be asked to
abate this nuisance, and if the com
lnunities that follow the present prac'
tees do not correct them they may be
enjoined by the federal government.
Apart from the question of the
health of the children who use the
creek for bathing, it is plainly unde
sirable that this stream should be used
as an open sewer. 1t is the chief fea
ture of the largest park in the Dis
trict. 1t attracts to its banks multi
tudes of people. The pollution of the
stream is an offense to them. It's
waters should be kept clear. If the
practice of using it for sewage dis,
posal is not stopped now it will in
crease with the development of the
suburban areas of Maryland. and the
time cannot be far distant when the
creek will be so foul as to drive away
all frequenters of the park.
Prompt measures are necessary in
this case. The use of a small open
stream for sewage disposal is the
poorest possible method. The com
munities that adopt it have nc
thought for others, and must be made
to change their system of sewage dis
posal to conform to the laws of public
health.

The Day of the Flag.

Observance of Flag day has become
national custom without the estab-
lishment of an additional holiday. The
day is observed in many ways, by the
display of the flag, by brief exercises,
by special publications. In one way
and another the attention of the peo-
pie Is directed to the fact that the
flag has reached another birthday an
niversary and to the story of it's
origin. This makes for good citizen
ship.
The flag may become a common
place to many if it is not thus occa-
sionally emphasized as a symbol. It
should never be regarded as a mere
bit of decorative bunting, used to
give color to a building on ceremonial
occasions or to designate certain off,
cial places. Whenever seen it should
be recognized as token of national
ity. and its components appreciated
in their full meaning.
(, The flag Is seen so often that prob
ably few pause to grasp its signifl-
canoe. Every feature Of it has gym
boIic value. There are the thirteen
etyinea, sAven red and six white. rep}

observation is convincing that there
is as much fun to be had in PLAYING

the game. If mitt salvaged from 4

Tor no self-respecting boy would try
TO play ball without giving at least
an imitation of possessing a mitt.

is alert.
