Pluckcd From the Plains
HAPPINESS

Happiness is like crystal
Fair and exquisite and clear,
Broken in a million pieces,
Shattered, scattered, far and near
Now and then along life's pathway,
Lo. some shining fragments fall
But there are so many pieces
No one ever finds them ALL
You may find bit of beauty,
Or an honest share of wealth,
While another, just beside you,
Gathers honor, love or health.
Vain to choose or grasp unduly,
Broken is the perfect ball
And there are so many pieces
No one ever finds them all.
Yet the wise, as on they journey,
Treasure every fragment clear,
Fit them, as they may together,
Imaging the shattered sphere,
Learning to be ever thankful
Though their share of it is small
For it has so many pieces
No one ever finds them all.

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE
EXPLANATION

Americans have gone on an ice
cream jag."-A Visiting BritiSher.
Why does the gentleman, when he
retires
Ask to be called at the break
of day,
Telling his dear little wife he desires
To be crowned in the morn as the
Queen CT the May?
Liquor is banned in this glorious
nation
And unless it was only dream
Which affected the man with such
eager elation-
He must have been eating ice
cream.
Why does the golf player, homeward
returning
After the wane of the last ray of
light,
Say that the lamps on the course
are kept burning
And that most of the boys keep
on playing all night?
The tale don't produce the effect
he intended,
1t arouses an awkward disturbance,
instead
And yet as intoxicants never are
vended,
Ice cream must have gone to his
head.
Why does q man roaming somewhere
or other
After the shadows of midnight
fall deep
Call the policeman his kindly old
And softly entreat him to rock him
to sleep?
Policemen dent look on such conduct
as funny,
1t wakes in their eyes a fierce
sinister gleam-
But liquor is not to be purchased
for money,
So he must have been eating ice
cream.
Why are the night clubs kept open
till morning
And filled up with people of more
or less wealth,
In spite Of the doctors continuous
warning
That keeping late hours is bad
for the health?
Why do the walters, resplendent and
regal,
Reiceve many tokens of ardent
esteem,
They cannot sell liquor-because that's
illegal;
They must be all serving ice cream

WASHINGTON = President Cool
idge's return to Washington means

Mute testimony of the difference

nalisrn in this fair town was afforded
by a glimpse into the White House
pressroom a few days in advance
of the executives return.
Empty as candidates promises,
Not a soul in sight. The country's
biggest news font was deserted. On
a small table in the center OF the
little room lay a scattered and dis
heveled pack of cards, convincing
proof that things were very dull
indeed.
Now all will be changed. The
press cubbyhole will be packed and
on Tuesday and Friday scores OF re-
5orters will overflow into the lobby
outside, waiting for the handicap
which sends them dashing into the
presidents office to learn for the
world what the president has on
his mind which he is willing to
confide.
About those cards. Gambling III

forbidden. Everyone who comes to

London, May 17th. The tactics of the
Labour party in Withdrawing from the
House of Commons as a protest against the
Governments proposals for ALLEGATION of

mended by the Daily Herald, but all

the Labour party has precedence for its
behaviour, for all pa9ties IN turn have
acted similarly. 1t adds, but we do not
remember a single occasion when a par
ty which executed this manOeuvre there
by gained any advantage whatever,
either temporary or permanent. For the
opposition to walk out of the House Of
Commons is a manifestation of its pro-
per function to oppose. The chief in
terest now centres in the future tactics
of the party and a meeting will be held
today to decide whether they shall take
any further part in the proceedings on
