WE WERE NOT

By GRACE E. HALL


CAN you forget the myriad things
~ That made the cycle of those
years:
The witcbery Of tender springs,
The autumn leaves, the tears,
The gray mists blurrlng out the view,
The somber scenes across the way,
The unsaid things we sensed and knew
Each passing dayf
Can you forget the mystic thread
We woye on fancy's magic loom
Into those days that now are dead
Dead as that first springs bloom?
We watched the gray doves come and
go.
Stood at the window while the rain
Tapped with ghost-touch soft and
low
Against the pane.
The hours were commonplace. we said,
And wished for scenes some other
where,
We saw the sunsets, gold and red,
Watched snow-clouds Gil the air;
Heard song birds in the trees above,
Had all Gods gifts, and yet
We were not satisfied with love-
And now-regretl

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS


yTy HEN, In the literature OF
w today, II is necessary to use
q synonym for defeat" or "foll,"
the word sbaffie" 10 recognized
eQnivalent--bus the origin of the
verb presents an interesting
study In ancient customs and
medieval practices, for 1t was
formerly applied to particular
species Of physical punishment.
Thus, In Beaumont and Fletch-
er's king and No King" a cow
ardly soldier recounts his expe-
riences by saying 'sThey hung
me up by the heels and beat me
with hazel sticks so that the
whole kingdom took notice OF
me for baffied felon."
Battling" In the days OF
chIvalry was the name given to
the ceremony In which a per-
jured or recreant knight, either
personally or In efiigy, w<as hung
up by the heels, his escutcheon
blotted, his spear broken in two
and either his body or his like
ness beaten by the bysfanders.
This pleasant little pastime is
described by Spenser, who writes
In the 'Faerie Queen:
and after all. for greater in
fanny
He by the heels him hung upon
tres,
And banned SO. that all which
that passed by
The picture OF his punishment
might see.''
The accepted meaning Of the
word today is therefore fgura-
tive, rather than literal--an echo
Of the days when knighthood was
In flower.

The Perrine-Jonas Co., one of the
largest general merchandising estab-
hshments at Waitsburg, Wn., made an
assignment last week, which proceed
ing is said to have been due to the
continued low price of wheat and 9th
er farm crops. That is one of the rich
est farm sections in the Northwest. If
conditions are such as to cause distress
there, it is little wonder that all farm
ing districts are feeling the pinch, and
it seems strange that the powers that
be win not recognize this fact and
make an honest effort to remedy the
difficulty. Certainly it is time to
s'quit your kidding. =

Foreign Advertising Representative
THE AMERICANA PRESS ASSOCIATION
WE ARE STILL CHASING EN-.


The constant criticism of the place
in which we live and the praise of
some other near or far away point, is
one of the greatest causes of unrest
and the continual changing of location.
Some of these criticisms may be just
and true, and so may be some of the
praise of the other point. But as
rule there is exaggeration in either in
stance and often much injury is done
the credulous victim who is always
looking for something easier or better,
and is constantly changing locations.
AS a rule the place we are living in
is not bad as some paint it, neither is
the prospective location as good as we
have been told it was and expect to
find it. Our forefathers, ages ago
when they were small boys, were told
that there was pot of gold at the
end of the rainbow and the number
who are still chasing after it seem to
be on the increase, with the result al
ways the same. In stormy weather the
rainbows are more numerous which
increases the number of seekers after
that easy pot of gold that may be had
only for the finding of it.
