SHIPS
Today. If I were free, I think.
Id wander 10 the rivers brink
And watch the great ships steaming
by
The stream below. above the sky
And see those vessels bearing then
The countless hopes Of mortal men.
And I could lie upon the shore
And glimpse the mother at the door
Watching and waiting, every trip.
To see the coming of the ship.
For that great ship that carries
grain
Also brings home her boy again.
l wonder II the wheelsman knows.
AS he the guiding rudder throws.
How many hopes and dreams and
fears
Are burdened in the ship he steers?
Depending on his watchful eyes
The laughter OF a lifetime lies.
Men write his cargo down as. ore,
or grain or coal. but it is more
It's woman's smiles and women's
tears
And little children's happy years,
For human destinies await
The safe arrival OF his freight.
We are but smaller packet ships
Set out upon our various trips.
Chartered for sold. or skill or fame.
Listed and registered by name.
Yet burdened with the smiles and
tears
Our own must know throughout the
years.
The women and the children wait
For US each evening at the safe.
Glad when we safely come from
town
And desolate IL we go down.
Bitter their years IL we shall fail

THE CON INDUSTRY

out in Denver thirty-three men are in jail on
charge Of having heeced various victims of total
TAR above a million dollars.
The chief OF this gang old who
worked a day in his life. who has been known for
years as parasite. who has been standing beyond
the little group that attracted by the lavish
Spending OF other peoples money.
The million and more which this took away
from those they imposed upon came through
vices and traps old the present commercial
system.
Those who refused to bet upon "nxed" horse
races Eulibly invested in which they believed
mis- crowd knew would raFdly rise in value because
Z secret information strikes OF oil gold
In every case the victim who parted with his
money did so under the belief that he getting
something for nothing and that he obtaining
an unfair advantage OF other person.
Every one OF these victims had the hope OF taking
away dollars from some else the savings per-
haps OF a life time and in their hearts brothers
OF this gang OF sTindlers who will pay the
penalty for their crimes.
No honest ever cheated by confidence
man. It takes a potential crook twisted mind
70 fall for the schemes they present they
my appealing 20 the sentiment OF theft and the
appetite for the unearned.
Not that this excuses in any way the profession OF
the con man nor should tighten the sentences
which they richly deserve. They have refused to
work They have fattened on dleness They have
been eneumbranoes upon the earth. eating food
which should be turned 20 blood and bone and
muscle Of those who contribute something 10 the
common
But Il is rather a shame thst when they march to
ne prison cells. they locksteppei with their
victims who have also something to learn about
honesty and morality and might complete their
cducation behind bars
rh,rty-three crooks are caught. Ten times that
number are exposed in the light by their con-
II button OF the million. Men who are content with
homes; dollars never fall for such schemes.

SAFETY FIRST

Three thousand men and women will gather in
Detroit today 70 devise means Of cutting down the
waste OF human life through accident.
Last year in this country 1888 persons met un-
timely deaths through various kinds of mishsps
about 400 less than the toll IN the year 1919.
There slight falling off in the number OF
auto accidents increase in drowninEs in street
car accidents and in mines
When it is considered that the fatal accidents
comprise but small part OF the heavy toll due to
careessness rreventabie accidents the total loss
TO the country from this source becomes enormous.
For every person who is killed. there are perhaps
ZEN who through life crippled TO some degree
and just TO that degree. less efficient likely

The tragedy OF IT l. that most Of these accidents
could be prevented by some thought and the use OF
devices that protect life.
In one factory alone, the of gloves TO protect
hands OF workers from CRIME and dirt was found 10
have been responsible for seventy-hve percent OF
accidents FOR which compensatory damages were
awarded and paid
That there 200 men and women connected
less directly with industry who are trying
solve this problem prophesies that the solution
for many OF the tragedies will be found
This city Il vitality interested in this problem and
VIII be interested the industries grow and
a larger proportion OF the population becomes
gagged in the OF machinery
What be done the matter of elimination
Of accidents through education and safeguards is
shown by a comparison with England and Wales.
which more largely industrial in popula-
ton than this country
The number OF deaths from accidents Of all kinds
in these countries than half that C. this
Try in proportion to the total population.
In this country auto accidents stand second the
list. exceeded only by falls There 9,sss
deaths in accidents in the year 1920. All Of
these could have been prevented by safe driving
and proper lights. It is probable that half OF these
deaths were due TO defective lights or too strong
lights
Human life Is the asset OF the nation which
. difficult to replace Every person killed takes
away a real value from the forces for the common
welfare.
Let it be hoped that the Safety Congress will
devise reasonable regulations which be adopted
every state in order TO down the tragedy from

FORD'S BOMB

Il is rather unfortunate that at the very moment

crisis IN the railway and coal strikes and that he
Confidently expected that these matters would be
settled Henry Ford issuing order to close
Is plants.
The result OF that order demonstrates the big
place which the fivver occupies in our scheme Of

thrown out OF work. The estimate runs up 20 two
millions when those affected by the manufacture OF
the raw materials for hivvers included. Fords
own employees will number much than

TOO MUCH AMBITION.


I am not like the modest bard
Who wanted little here below;
I have no lofty disregard
For what is vulgarly termed
dough"
I'd like TO own a large steam yacht
And swift, expensive motor cars,
I'd like 10 have an~awful lot
OF fat, brown. ffty-cent cigars.
I envy portly money kings
Their opulence-acquiring greed:
Ia like 10 have all sorts OF things
That poets do not really need.

Or cry disdainfully, NO. sir"

That paid a hundred thousand per.
To get as much as Irwin Cobb.
To own John Rockefeller's roll.
or sit in Mr.. Hardings job,
Would thrill me to the very soul.
I fully understand a man
Who. as the world he journeys
through.
Attempts 10 get whate'er he can.
For life is brief and pleasures few.
But when former Russian prince,
Abiding in a safety zone
Beyond his country's borders. hints
That he would like 10 have the
throne,
And says that he Will march from
France
And hurry home 10 the Car
The minute that he gets the chance.
I think the fellow goes too far.
I'm not averse 70 power and fame,
No love for poverty I vaunt.
Is not my aim.
But that's the job I do not want,
