The Worlds Prayer
By Miss ALLeen Blake
"A. p B.

An International Song Dedicated PreSidss Harding
Since life began Worlds historys been wrought
With mems grim battles oft renewed and fought;
Progress has taught the evil of our
And peace is dawning with a newer day.
The force of might-not rght-has often ruled
And all the world in armament been schooed;
Please God no graveyards where we kneel
But ioin our hearts and hands for common veal
Mems minds We'd for better make
Destructive forces for destruction sake;
From Chaos and confusion there shall rise
Enduring peace and everlasting ties
Chorus
We pray for peace on earth, good will toward all;
Nav love instead of hate hearts enthral
We pray every nation the right;
That truth and Justice rule in place of might
That armament forever ceases its reign;
nd wasting may meier return again.
Long may world be bright
With freedoms holy light
And sing
Create God Kingl

We hear good deal about what is
being done in textile centers of the
South for the benefit of the children
of operatives, and the effort there is
deemed worth telling the world about.
1t is doubtful if the best the cotton
mill communities of that section can

Weary Business of Strikes

Recently the miners went back to
work. In getting a s30,OOOOO a year
wage increase hey have lost about
s13,5oO,OOO in wages during the IS.
day strike. The loss to production is
estimated at 100000 tons. Railroad
men laid off because there was no
coal to move and have lost many
days pay. The general disiocation to
business inevitable in any strike, how.
ever short, is levying it's toll. How
foolish and unnecessary the whole
thing looks, with its settlements that
settle nothing, its heavy costs to all
concerned and its certainty that we
must go through the whole weary
business again and yet againl-Phila.

II There Were No Tariff.

Farmers are dissatisfied with prices
for their wheat, but they are appalled,
when they think how much lower the
prices would be if the Republican Con.
gress had not enacted a tariff that
shuts out Canadian grain. Millers
would be glad of the opportunity to
buy at the lower prices quoted for the
Canadian product. In any event, a
larger supply in the American market
would inevitably depress the price still

Says
By John p. Medbury.

A PROMINENT writer says
IA that by 1898 the White
- IA House will be occupied en-
tirely by women. Maybe he's
right, and if this is true then the
Vice President will no longer be
q silent figure.
There's no reason why a wom-
an shouldn't be President. A lot
Of them are just as good golf
players as men.
They could fill the Cabinet
positions perfectly. There's not
a married woman in this country
who wouldn't make an excellent
Secretary of War.
Most wives are good cooks and
any man would be glad to nOmi-
nate his wife for Minister Of the
Interior.
And a lot of them are so used
to working that they've had
plenty of training to fit them for
the Department of Labor.
The average married woman is
30 used to grabbing her husbands
pay envelope every Saturday
night that she'd know exactly
how to act il you put her in the
Treasury.
II a woman had been President
four years ago England wouldn't
have our dough now.
The chances are we'd have
theirs.
A woman wants to see what
she's getting for her money, and
Stanley Baldwin didn't bring any
bargains over here with him.
OF course, some women gossup
q whole lot, and our lady Presi-
dent would probably have US at
war with every foreign nation.
Bnt she wouldn't let our SOL
diers fight it out on a battlefield:
shed want the last word herself.
The extent Of our warfare
would probably be the women
from the different nations get
ting together and calling each
other names.
Then whichever side got lock.
Jaw first would lose.
Still. the most pitiful sight Inn
aginable would be to see our
lady President and her girl Cabi-
net arguing over a lot Of bills.
1t il not at all unlikely that
we may have q woman President.
But can you imagine some for.
eign diplomat calling at the
White House to see her and have
her send out word that she's busy
IN the kitchen.
However she could attend to
the Government affairs In the
morning and do her housework in
the afternoon.
Instead Of being on the golf
course most Of the time, she'd
spend her leisure hours around
bargain counters.
These foreign diplomats had
better do all their arguing low
because If this county ever gets
q woman President, there's no
use talking.
