LONGSHOREMEN ARE

A decided impetus to the reorgan-

both of which the 1. w. w. figured
conspicuously, the membership of l.

reason that members we're unemploy-

Saw but the shadow fall. and knew not when,
Or in what fair unfamiliar guisc.

Had found II fast for many grcvous day;

And touched Eternity

Leaving no footprint of the road it trod,
Straight rs an arrow cleaving to its mark

But fell asleep outwearied with the strife

AN OLD DISPUTE SETTLED

The announcement that the United
States Supreme Court has finally settled
the TeNas-Oklahoma boundary dispute
ought to be gratifying to the people, in
general, of both states, irrespective of the
division OF wealth thus effected. For it
is to be assumed that the highest triFSnal,
after considering the vast amount of evil
denCe presented, reached conclusion as
nearly just as was humanity possible "in
the premises" Inasmuch as the decision
represents compromise between the
conflicting claims OF the two, states,
neither of them, as whole, can "crow
over the other. Nor is there any occa-
sion for either of them to display the
opposite emotion. AS judged by the
courts findings, each state was partly
right and each was partly wrong.
Probably one of the most complicated
cases ever tried before the Supreme Court,
this one grew out Of shortcomings for
which neither Texas nor Oklahoma, or
any OF the personal claimants of the rich
oil lands involved, is to be blamed. How
ever, blame does rest upon those who
resOrtcd to violence in the high stages
.of the dispute, when state rangers and
other officers, ARMED to the teeth" were
dispatched to the territory in question.
The settlement by the Supreme Court
points two morals. One pertains to
orderly, constitutional government; the
other has to do with the importance Of
exercising foresight whenever and wher-
ever real property is concerned.
To settle such disputes as that arising
from the discovery of oil in the Red River
VALLEY is one of the most important func-
tons OF a supreme tribunal such as the
one for which the constitution of the
United States makes provision. There
are certain basic principles which must
be practiced in any country il that coun-
| try is to remain at peace with itself or
with other nations. Those principles
must be defined Enthusiastically, and not
departed from under any conditions or
circumstances. In other words, there
must be constitutional government in the
strictcst sense OF the term. Although
| this country is not now adhering to its
constitution as closely as it once did, II
nevertheless maintains far greater facil'
tiles for the rendering of justice, and II
a peaceful way. than does many foreign

countries of Europe could agree upon

There's no legend told;
Just quiet place, and strange place.
From times mddlin' old
In my raw years and my ripe years
I've come and gone there.
And have seen naught and have heard nauGht
OF ghosts, foul or fair
In the long field, in the owllight,
The young lovers stray:
By the wood-end. in the sunlight
The small children play
When their loves made, or their games played
Mouse-quiet, home they'll steal.
They've seen naught. and they've heard naught;
But maybe, they feel!

That can't rest in the earth's breast,
Nor yet face the sun.

That some ghosts dare show
We see naught and we hear nHught,
But, deep-down. we know.

to time the reporters saw Under-Sec-
rotary of State William Phillips, but,
if the under-secretary will pardon my
saying it, which he will not, that
helped them not at all. Mr.. Phillips
is such an under-secretary of state

Which is a disgression, but not so
dnimportant as it may seem to per-
sons who are not engaged in trying
to find out what the State Depart
ment has, may, or will do. All that
day Colonel Harvey, secluded in the
Presidents library, gave the head of
the nation the story of Europe as he
sees it. There are people hereabouts
who think that Secretary of State
Hughes is, perhaps, not SO readily
softened by sentiment as is his chief
and who suffer from the new disease

hear what Colonel Harvey is said to
have said. Bat that has nothing at

The point of this story is that Col

washington, ID. c., Jan. 17.-One of
tbe diplomatic secrets around the State
Departmcnt that is about as secret as
the Third BALKAN War is that Secretary
Hughes and Colonel Harvey detest each
other. Maybe that is too hard word
that detest Maybe they only dislike
each other Perhaps their mutual feel
ing does not rise to the level Of hate.
Perhaps they merely think of each other
as President Harding's principal mis-
takes. That is why the newspaper
men watched the events which clust-

"What did Colonel Harvey tell the

1.-The Secretary of State has not yet
seen the ambassador to the Court of
st. James's," was the answer, in low,
bitter tones.
So they trooped to the office end
Of the White House The doughty

President Harding in person. We are.

Ear Hygiene.
BY ii. Ad6ington Bruce.

At this season of the year it is partic-
ularly important to guard against in
fcctions of the ear. This because it is
during the winter that throat and nose
troubles are most prevalent, and these
may all too readily have ear trouble
rs sequel, by reason of the intimate
connection between throat. nose and ear
through the Eustachian tube.
Obviously, then, all general hygienic
measures which serve as preventives of
catching cold"-ample ventilation in
the home, avoidance of over-eating.
keeping good hours, keeping out OF
crowds when fGtigued. etc.-render val
liable service in safeguarding the ear.
But there are special precautions to be
taken in the ears behalf should a cold
unfortunately be caught.
One Of these, and the most necessary,
is to beware of blowing the nose vio-
lently. All who do so blow the nose
run the risk of forcing mucus end dis
ease germs back into the Eustachian
tube, causing at least temporary deaf
ness, and possibly setting up an infec-
ton with which the ear specialist may
find it hard to deal. -
For the same season violent spraying
or the nose is TO be avoided. On no
account should 4 current of liquid be
used in the nose, because of the danger
of forcing injection not only into the
ears, but into the sinuses. with possibly
resultant abcesses and even eye disease.
If spraying has to be done. n warm.
mild, antiseptic solution should be used,
without the exercise of force.
Another precaution of protective
value 10 the ear is to wear cotton in
the cars whenever motoring in open
Cars--Or in closed ears, il for any rea-
son they are draughty. So. too. it is
well TO use cotton or some other cover
ing for the ears it sleeping in a room
into which strong current of air is

And be careful not to poke anything

| It's:
I'm healthy ear no more wax forms

natural course the wax works to the
fore gradually, and comes away impcr-
ceptibly in superficial washing by q
cloth over a finger-end."
If the ear is plugged with wax that
defies removal by washing, and that iE-
dicates its presence by n constant ring
ing in the ear, consult an ear specialist
| He can be trusted to remove it harm
lesSly, whereas efforts to remove il
ones self may have more or less serious
consequences to the ear, besides being
futile.

cssary to inflict corporal punishment

live a good deal like white trash and
she looks draggle-tailed and w"c.he-

"If you think it will do any good"
I assented. I did not take any inter-

the Thompson boy with COOL advice
would be his disappearance from her

Thompson boy over again, and nc IS

She made diplomatic ovecturts to
him by offering him work. Most of that
work ] could have done myself if 1

that makes no difference. The poor
kid was clad to get the money and

of telling his troubles he il Dragging
about his boy. In consequence he has
held his latest job and Mrs. Thonp-

But good advice. without tn" lack
