their report and recommended that
the little soldiers case be reopened,
but the records containing his name
had been lost.
When the little soldier heard it, he
coughed up a mouthful of red tape
and expired.
He was clothed in a shroud of red
tape and buried at government ex-
pense. He was carried to the grave
yard in hearse lined with red tape.
The harness and trappings of the
horses were of. red tape. The driver
was tied to his seat with red tape.
The casket was lined and covered

When the grave had been filled, a

on the mound, and they also were tied

THE PARABLE OF THE TWO SOL.
DIERS AND THE RED TAPE

Now there were two soldiers, one
of whom was large and the other
small. The big soldier was drafted
when the war was almost over, and
sent to a training camp, where lie
drilled and fattened for three montf ,
and gained fort; pounds. When the
war was over he went home without
ever having left his native state.
Therefore, because that he had
saved his country, he considered
every man, woman and child and all
the Americans yet unborn as his debt
ors. And he asked his government
| for compensation, pension, voca-
tional training, reconstruction, money
for cigarettes, money for pipe tobac-
co, for an attendant, for an assistant
attendant for a groom of the bed
chamber and for an hundred changes
of raiment All these things were
added unto him, and he bought Life
Insurance, a dressing gown and slip
pers and took, wife, so that Solo
mon in all his glory was not so well
arrayed. And he abode in such lux
ury as he had never dreamed of in
the days before his military career,
and he waxed exceedingly.
Now the little soldier, forseeing the
great catastrophe that was TO engulf
the peoples Of the world, had volun-
teered, and he went with the first
division Of his countrymen that ever
trod the sacred soil of France.
He carried his rifle in many battles
and did his duty humbly without
question or hesitation. He went over
the top, he carried hand grenades, he
did his bit on OUTPOST and sentry.
And when the day Of tie great battle
came, the morning star looked sadly
down upon the fields of France and
the Yanks were ready.
The little soldier advanced into
He'll with the remnant Of his COM
pany. And even as he helped TO
smite the enemy, even as the enemy
was flying in confusion, a wave Of
German gas swept down the lines and
a mighty shell burst above the head
of the little man, and ne fell and

M<nGARET STAHL
Berea lgke Chapel, Monday,
February IS

Amongst American women Play
Readers, Margaret Stahl is probably
the most widely known, the most
highly honored, and her position as
great Artist, the most securely es-
tablished. In her more than twelve
years platform experience she has
lived one of the busiest and most ex-
acting lives, but she has made every
thing in her experience and study
contribute to the one end, her plat
form art.
One Of the chief features in Miss
Stahl's presentation Of a play is that
she is distinctively a creative artist.
She is not an imitator; she is not
mimic. Imitation is not a virtue;
originality is. And Miss Stahl is
prominently a Reader with insight.
originality and power. Thru the
most winsome personality she intro
duces her own emotional and intellec-
tual conception; she seeks natural
ness and humanity ip her character
izations, rather than any affected or
initiated accent or Evolutionary trick.
If the stamp Of public approval
represents real appreciation then
Margaret Stahl has had that in
abundance. Probably no Reader to-
day has a finer record of recalls than
she.

limo TO Call n Halt

THE pending bill in Congress TO authorize
the appointment OF nineteen more Fed
eral judges to handle the increasing num-
Der of cases that are docketed in Federal
courts is encountering strong opposition
and may fail OF passage. Senator Over
man, OF North Carolina. attacked it as
"pork-barrel' legislation strictly, and Sem
ator Norris. Republican. of Nebraska, went
to the extreme Of favoring the abolition
OF all inferior Federal courts and the trans
ference of their jurisdiction to the State
courts TO avoid duplication IN administering
Justice. He characterized the FEEDER /
courts as the rich mans tribunals, declari :.
IL cost more TO try cases in the Federal than
in the State courts
or course, his proposal to abolish all in
ferior Federal courts is absurd bu, he is
right in his view that much of the business
now passed on by these courts could he bet
ter administered by the State courts. and
at less cost. This could be remedied by
legislation limiting the jurisdiction of these
interior courts to suits which properly be-
long there and nowhere else. Undouhted-
~. Senator Overman stated fact when he
asserted that the underlying motive of the
pending measure is to provide nineteen
more pieces of pie" for hungry Republi-
cans. The fact that cases are piling UP
in the Federal courts is the fault of Con-
gress in passing unnecessary legislation that
steadily increases the supply Of grist for
Judicial grinding. AS class Federal
judges do not work harder than Judges of
State courts or than other men. They are
able TO take long vacations every year, and.
generally speaking. their lives do not seem
to be marked by any considerable strenu-
osity. II is true that prohibition has made
considerable new business for the Federal
courts, but with the cooperation of the
State courts and peace officers they ought
TO he able to take care OF this new bust
ness.
This is time when the overburdened
taxpayers OF tho country are demanding
the strictest possible economy to lessen the
load they have to carry Hence, they do
not look with favor on this proposal for
permanently saddling this new cost on them
The people would welcome curtailment of
the public pay roll. and heavy reduction
III the number of Federal jobs. With the
Treasury already facing Il deficit of more
than S200,OO0,000. il is time to put the
brakes on creating new offices. For many
years we have been creating new offices in
the most reckless way, and have greatly
broadened the sphere OF Federal activity,
at enormous cost 10 the people The time
has come TO call halt in that tendency
and so in the other direction. This is what
the Republican party promised in the last
campaign and It should be held TO that

direction and strengthening OF the Virginia
system is best known And 1t should be re-
called that the achievement which the States
budget represents has made the Virginia
