THE MAN FOR ME
BY o. LAWRENCE HAWTHORNE

I don't think much of the man who
waits
For opportunity to call,
The chap who falters and hesitates-
His chances for success are small;
For while he frets and condemns his
luck
And tries to prove that times are bad,
Somebody else with heroic pluck
Has won the prize he might have had.
1 don't think much of the man who let's
His circumstances change his mind.
I'm not surprised that a drifter gets
Discouraged when he falls behind.
For never yet has a race been won
Without a purpose and will;
No deed worth doing is ever done
Without tenacity and skill.
Give me the man who has fixed a goal,
Who knows just what he wants to
do
A fellow working. with heart and soul
To put forceful program through!
My hat is off to a man of might
No matter what his name may be-
A man who knows that his course is
right
And undismayed puts out to seal

WHEN JANE GOES BY
BY o. LAWRENCE HAWTHORNE

I hear a certain lady say,
When Jane goes by,
Another stunning dress today!"
When Jane goes by.
1t matters not what time of year,
What time of day, or who Is here
The folks downstairs begin to cheer
When Jane goes by.
Somehow some Junior Hawthorne
knows
When Jane goes by,
And calls, "Oh, Mother, there she goes!"
When Jane goes by.
And now 1 must confess to you
That 1 get quite excited too
And enjoy a secret view
When Jane goes by.
It surely is a pleasant treat
When Jane goes by;
Refreshing breezes find our street
When Jane goes by.
She looks so sweet an everything
She always makes it seem like Spring,
And saucy birds begin to sing
When Jane goes by!
A waiter always looks as If he had
just got up.

DELAWARE MAY GET LARGE
sum FROM UNCLE SAM
continued from page u


either through legislation or by
executive order.
The main argument used to urge
passage of the resolution is that the
Federal government should be ready
to right a wrong and that, if the tax
was illegal, as contended, the money
should go back to the persons from
whom the tax was collected or their
heirs, or to the states of which they
were citizens.
It is contended that the tax as i'm
posed during the years 1866 186!
and 1868, will be held illegal and
while those who paid it, or their
,heirs, can establish their claims,
most of the money undoubtedly Will
escheat to the states whose citizens
.paid it.

FILIBUSTER HALTS
FARM AID VOTE
Backers of Corn Belt Measure
Give Up HOPE of Adoption,
Seek Speedy Action

Washington-The fi1ibuster against
the rivers and harbors bill appeared
on the floor of the senate and pre-
vented an agreement to vote on the
farm relief bill. Adherents of the
corn belt measure have given up hope
of its adoption by the senate and were
ready to vote. Senator Charles L.
McNary of Oregon, in charge Of the
bill, asked for unanimous consent to
begin voting on amendments. Sem
ator Frank B. Willis of Ohio objected.
Immediately Senator Pat Harrison Of
Mississippi inquired of the Ohio sena-
tor whether he was filibustering
against the measure. Senator Willis
evaded the question. Senator Claude
Swanson of Virginia wanted to know
whether the senator from Ohio was
trying to prevent adjournment and
whether he was willing to stay here
all summer. Senator Willis, who is
the leader of the filibuster against the
rivers and harbors bill, because it con-
tains the Chicago diversion provision,
told the senate that members of the
committee on commerce which has
charge of the rivers and harbors bill
desired to participate in the discussion
of the farm relief bill.
