THE MAN WITH THE
DOUGH

(The following parody on Edwin
Markham's famous poem, "Ihe Man
With the Hoe," was read by Toast
master Norman Hapgood at the din-
ner rendered Senator Burton X.
Wheeler and his leading counsel IN
Washington, recently. The toastmas..
ter refused to reveal the identity OF
the author, but, nevertheless, the
audience got great "kick" out OF
the clever lines.)
Bowed by the weight of currency he
comes
Seeking more dough and gazing on
the ground;
The emptiness of money in his face;
And in his track the sorrows of the
world.
Who made him dead to honor and
good faith,
Seeking to buy all things that can be
bought,
Seeking to buy the things no one can
buy?
Who loosened and let down for, him
the law?
Who placed upon his brow the crown
of pride?
Who bred the powermadness In his
brain?
Is this the State our fathers made
and gave
To grant domirions over coal and oil,
Send out marines and loot the public
lands
And thrill to passions of sweet "nor-
malcy?"
Is this the Plan they planned who
wrote our Law
And marked our ways upon the an
cient roads?
Down all the stretch of He'll to its
last gulf,
What crime is more contemplate than
this?
Betray a public trust; steal common
wealth;
Bring ruin unto honest men; and
Debauch nation to enthrone the
Thieves!
o masters, lords and rules in all
lands!
How will the future reckon with this
man?
How answer his brute challenge in
that hour
When Wheelers, who are welcomed,
shake the world?
How will it be with Dougherties and
Dough,
With those who bought and sold men
and the law,
When People shall begin to talk out
loud
After the silence of our shameless
day?

Trade Unions Mean
a Lot to the Average
LabOring Man

Take away the trade union and you
take away the only hope the average
workingman has of bettering his con-
dition. A wage worker is not like a
stock-juggling financier; he has no
hopes of sudden wealth. Every dol
lar in his pay envelope must be earn
ed by hard work. He is not generally
speaking, like the bank clerk; he has
little hopes of being picked out and
promoted. The chance of the worker
being made superintendent at a sal
ary of $4,000 year, is about as prob
able as his chance of being sent to
Congress. He has nothing to sell ex-
cept his labor, and no means of get
ting higher price except through his
trade union.

THE TWO SIDES OF WAR

All wars are planned by older men
In council rooms apart,
Who plan for great armament
And map the battle chart.
Out along the shattered fields
Where golden dreams are gray,
How very young their faces are
Where all the dead men lay.
Gray haired and solemn, in their
pride,
The elders cast their vote
For this or that, or something else,
That sounds the warlike note.
But where their sightless eyes stare
Beyond life's vanished joys,
I've noticed nearly all the dead
Were hardly more than boys.

ALLIE BAA's CHRISTMAS

Allie Baa is a rag doll. You know
her whole name is Alice Gustava Ariel
Star Carol Carmen Cucumber Green.
Her mothers play name is Mrs. Gu
cumber Green.
Allie Baa was her mothers fayorite
child. Now perhaps with real mothers
it is just as well that they should not
have favorite children, but when one
has family of cloth animals and
dolls It is really quite fair to have ?
favorite doll.
Then, too, the others seemed to I'M
derstand. Gyp. the dear little dog,
who had belonged to Mrs. Cucumber
Green's brother before he had be-
longed to her. was so sweet and so
gentle and such dear, dear dog, that
he would never dream of being Jeal-
GUS.
Why, even some of the sawdust and
cotton kept coming out from his legs
and feet and he never complained.
Nor did his face ever lose its sweet
expression. Gyp was perfect dar-
ling.
Then there was Johnny Naples.
Johnny was quite gay with all his
many coIors worked into his worsted
suit. He was thin and his body was
loose and moved easily.
But Johnny was as good-natured as
he could be. He couldn't have been
jealous of anyone.
AS for Allie herself, she was so won
derful that no one could have minded
having her receive all the affection
possible.
Now Allie always came down to the
Christmas tree. Mrs. Cucumber Green.
