THE KNOCKER

The knocker sat on a dry goods
box
With his feet cooked up showing
holes in his socks.
While his wife at her work in a
pleasant way,
Was clearing the breakfast dishes
away.
She suggested to him. that he
clean up the yard.
But the knocker didn't feel like
working so hard.
The cleanup business was only a
fad,
It might do for children but not
for their dad.
So he sauntered off to the grocery
store,
And there we hear him knocking
some more.
He found men talking improve
men plans
And how to get rid of the old tin
cans;
They wanted to clean up the alleys
and streets
And teach the boys how to raise
onions and beets.
They wanted to make the town
spick and span
And they wanted to try and enlist
every man.
But here Mr.. Knocker injected his
knock;
And stuck up his feet and the
hole in his sock;
And suggested that he must be
earning his living
And time for improvements he
couldn't be giving.
So sauntering leisurely on down
the street.
He sought more congenial COM
panions to meet.
The next crowd he saw he thought
were his style.
And he sat right down just to rest
for a while;
Ut is true he had done no work
for a week)
So he settled right down with a
quid in his cheek.
But horrors of horrors, worse than
onions and beets,
These men were now talking Of
paving the streets.
Disguised that men should have
no more sense
At once he proceeded hard knocks
to dispense.
He knocked every man out of his
hearing.
He knocked every improvement he
thought might be nearing.
He knocked every merchant he
bought from on stick"
And the doctor who cared for him
when he was sick;
He called every banker a robber
and thief
And then knocked the butcher who
furnished him beef.
There wasn't a barber in town fit
to shave him.
And he had no need for religion
to save him.
He knocked every teacher from
bottom to top,
They neither knew where to be-
gin nor to stop.
He knocked the town officers over
and over,
They wouldn't compare with his
dog he called Rover.
And as far as county officials
would go,
There wouldn't one stand GHOST
of show. sSs
Commercial clubs. lodges, churches
and schools, H..
All who upheld them were nothing
but fools. IL ..
He knocked cause he never had
had any chance
To show to the people just how
| to advance.
He knew that his plans were per-
fectly right. HID
But everything now was simply a
fright. II. a~-@.e >.%s

programmed to present was used
and the program played was totally
different in form and character
than that advertised by them.
There is no question regarding the
quality of the music presented--it
was fine. But the obligation to
give the audience what 1t had
promised them did not seem to rest
very heavily on the program makers
nor was any excuse given for the
failure. 1t was not the program

of doing this sort of thing too
severely.

those listeners personally in a short
two-minute talk from WRC last
evening. Senator Marconi was not
on the program of the evening for
an addressi-and he did not make
an address as a matter of fact. He
simply chatted for a few minutes
congratulating the people to whom
he talked on having the best de-
veloped radio broadcast system in
the world and expressing the hope
thai he would be able to greet them
again at some future time.
Senator Marconi is in the United
States as a delegate from Italy to
the International Radio Telegraph
conference and spoke from his room
In the Mayflower Hotel. He paid
his respects to the Radio Corpora
ton of America as the greatest
agency for the development of
hrOadcasting in America and said
that it is through this development
that such enormous industrial in
stitutions as the General Motors
Corporation has decided upon
policy of radio broadcasting for the
cultivation of good will.
He. said he regarded the an
nouncement of the General Motors
Corporation, which was made yes
terday, as the best evidence that
hroadcasting of Entertainment and
culture is a fixed institution in
America.

 DOWN REVOLT OF WOMEN
Jacksonville Jail Scene of Excite ment-Cabbage or Candy
 Starts Trouble

Jacksonville, Fla. March II PS- A tear bomb late today settled nautlny of women prisoners at the prison farm here, which started over the question Of whether candy or cabbage should be included in the daily bill of fare.
 Leading the revolt was Laura Jp- thegrove, reputed member Of the Ashley Mobley gang, which figured in a series of killings in the state few years ago. She is serving 3O- day term for disturbing the peace.
 Five women had been protesting for some days against the inclusion 0. cabbage and the deletion Of candy from their diet. The ill feel ing came to head when Mrs. Ella Johnson, sentenced yesterday for 2 minor offense, came to the farm with sll outward signs Of an ambition 10 work.
 The five kldna pped her and bar ricaded themselves In the women's sleeping quarters. Rather than use violence 10 quell the disturbance tear gas bombs were brought into use.
 Even after the bundtne fumes be- gan 10 get in their effect the women resisted for some time but finally were driven to rip out screens and tumble out Of their fortress, The nutiny lasted nearly two hours.
