For Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE
WORTH TAKING A CHANCE

WORTH TAKING A CHANCE
Time was when 1 envied the people
who fled
To the lands of perpetual sun,
AS soon as the leaves. Of the forest
turned red,
And the summer was over and
done.
'How lucky they are" would
often complain,
'"To follow the birds in their
flight
To the glorious southland, while I
must remain
Where the snow drifts lie dreary
and white,
And the billiards. that blow in this
blustry cline
May we'll cut me down in my
prime
But now a distinguished physician
has found
That all of my notions were
wrong;
One must stick around home all
the whole year around
10 De nedIIny ana nearby anu
strong.
The people who follow the birds
on the wing
And journey each year to and
fro
In order to dwell where it always
is Spring
Rarely live beyond sixty or SO.
The home keeping birds like the
crow and the hen
Outlast both the robin and wren.
And so, though cannot pack up
and depart
AS soon as the weather grows
cold,
No changes of weather will weaken
my heart,
And I'll probably grow very old
While the folks who go fitting all
over the map
On the quest of perpetual May
May, so we are told by this medical
chap,
Be dropped in their tracks any
day.
They are risking their lives by pur-
suing the Spring,
And I wish 1 could do the same
thing!

British Public Baked
at Sanitary Methods

The meeting Of the congress Of the
Royal Sanitary institute recalls the
strong opposition which sanitary re-
formers once encountered. The Times
in 1854 rejoiced that Chadwick had re-
ceived a pension which would enable
him to leave dirt and disease alone !:
"Aesculapius and Chiron, in the form
Of Mr.. Chadwick and Doctor South
wood Smith, have been deposed, and
we prefer to take our chance Of chol-
era and the rest than to be bullied
into health"
Another complaint was that their
activities had established "a perpetual
Saturday night, and Master John Bull
was scrubbed and rubbed and small
tooth-combed till the tears ran into his
eyes, and his teeth chartered, and his
fists clenched themselves with worry
and pain"
What would the writer of this pro-
test say If he could see the public
health service today? According to
his standard by this time Master John
Bull ought to have been washed alto
gether out of existence and poured
away with the soapsuds.-Manchester

Samoan Natius Still
Believes In Old Oath

White men who introduced the sys-
tenn Of plotting land and the survey
or's methods Of defining boundaries,
brought with them to Samoa the white
mans method Of administering oaths.
So, officially, the native Samoan
places his hand upon the Holy Bible
to swear that title to a certain piece
Of land belongs to him.
But those who have lived there long
know that, at heart, the native does
not have the degree Of fear when an
oath is taken upon a Bible that he
had for the old Samoan oath. Where
grave issues are at stake he Is apt to
discard the modern form for the old
one.
While the old manner varied in the
different villages the common rite was
to take a bunch Of grass and lay 1t
on stone or other object that repre-
sented the family or village god.
The contesting parties would say
with hand resting on the grass, I'm
the presence of this whole assembly,
I lay my hand on the grass. II have
declared falsely may suddenly die"
1t often happened that one making
a false oath would be seised with su-
perstitious fear that would overcome
him or cause him to confess.
The meaning Of the grass was that,
should the oath be false, he and his
entire family be exterminated from
the face Of the earth and their habi-
tation covered with grass.

Sudden Jungle Quiet
as Night Approaches

There Is some noise in the jungle
all day long, according to African trav-
elers. but just at nightfall 1t becomes
oppressively quiet. Not sound is to
be heard for while, but this does not
last long, for all Of sudden there are
many noises to be heard that were not
experienced during the day.
Jackals begin to yelp and hyenas to
howl, Immediately followed by hun
dreds of other lesser denizens Of the
jungle. These noises keep up all
night, approaching at times and then
receding, so that the camper is kept
at qui vive all the time, not knowing
when some animal will poke its nose
into his presence.
Every other noise sinks into insig-
nificance at the roar of the lion, which
seems to shatter the atmosphere.-Chi-
cago Journal.

Provinces "of Age"

The two Canadian provinces Of AL
berta and Saskatchewan attained
their majority September 1. Each Of
these provinces is twenty-one years
old. Prior to 1905 the area embraced
by Alberta and Saskatchewan had the
status of territories administered
largely by the Canadian federal gov
eminent. At that earlier date the
combined population Of Alberta and
Saskatchewan was approximately 400,-
900. Now, according to census taken
by investigators employed by the Ca
madam Pacific railway, the combined
population of these two provinces Is
100000. Since their birth as prov
inces the annual agricultural produc-
ton for Alberta and Saskatchewan
has increased from $40,OOO,OO0 to
7S5,OOO,OOO.

Coats Good Qualities

The goat is one Of the most misun-
derstood animals living in domesticity.
From the very dawn Of history it has
played an important part in the prog
ress of mankind. By the Semitic peo-
pie, round which our history centers,
the goat was highly esteemed. Its
milk was considered delicious; its
meat was food for guests. 1t is now
a lover of men and unlike it's relatives
of the bovine world, it appreciates the
association of humans-especially chill
dren-and never wanders off to soil
tary pastures as do the cows and
sheep. 1t almost equals the dog for
fidelity; certainly is on par with
the COW and sheep in utility.
