COUNTED AMONG THE BARDs

Lloyd George has blossomed out as
a bard.

prime minister's first poetic effort
Lloyd George has written the
words for Welsh song, full OF eu-
phonlc phrases such as "Glewion a
fegir vn ell COL"
Translated into English, the pre-
mier's poetic effort is as follows:
While hills their shadows fling
athwart the dale
Stalwarts will ever rise within their
pale,
While they. as watchers, guard the
placid land
No lack shall be OF patriots to com
mand.
Cambria's children dare deceit and
spite.
Rocks of our nation constitute our
might.
And as the hills from cloudy fet,ers
rise.
When jocund Phoebus wakes the
morning skies,
SO flees the bondage holding Wales
in thrall,
Dawn OF the morning-listen to It's
call!
Children OF Cambria, light is near
al baud.
Morn breaks a; last, and dawn Is
o'sr the land.

DAVIDSON May
Be CANDIDATE
FOR U.S.SENATE
Lieutenant Governor States
That He Will Not Run For
This Office Again

HOUSTON, Tex, Feb. 27-Lieutcnant
Governor Lynch Davidson gave to press
representatives today the following
statement:
1t is not my intention to be a candi-
date for reelection TO the office of lieu
tenant governor of Texas. / make this
announcement because good and sub
stantial men over the state have ex-
pressed their desire to me to become
candidates for that office, but are un-
willing to announce in the event il was
my purpose to offer for reelection. Ii
is only fair to them that | now announce
my intention not 10 run for reelection.
THE consideration and confidence
given me by abe people of Texas invokes
my deepest gratitude. The office has
given me opportunity for some splendid
constructive work. Whoever is chosen
to the office will find il post Of i'm
portance and one voters should be care
full to fill with man capable. not only
of being lieutenant governor, but of be-
ing governor of this state.
The people of Texas, the legislative
body and the Texas senate particularly,
have made il a pleasure 10 me TO fill
the office of lieutenant governor. Four
years Of public service, first as repre-
sentative from Harris county. then state
senator from the sixteenth district and
next lieutenant governor. has brought
to ne the realization that never before
has the services of able men been so
much needed in the affairs of state and
nation is is the case today.
Lieutenant Governor Lynch Davidson
indicated the possibility of being can
didate for the United States senate. and
said he would only be prevented from
doing so by pressing business demands.
He emphatically reaffirmed the doctrine
so many times before expressed that
every man of ability and capacity, and
particularly the outstanding business
men of the day. should subject them
selves to the call of the people. and the
people should call them TO active parti-
cipation in the affairs of government.
And stating further. in proof Of his be-
lief in that doctrine, he was at all times
open TO any demands made upon him by
the people Of Texas.
