More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES ]. MONTAGUE
THE EFFECT OF REPRESSION

-~@-~
Science has now discovered that elec-
trio waves are set in motion
by human passions.
My parents reared me in strict
And stern New England fashion;
From early childhood I was licked
For getting in a passion.
I grew as calm, serene and cold
AS is the Polar ocean,
And after I was eight years old
1 never showed emotion.
The people of the acting stage,
When any situation
Demands a show of savage rage
Can foam with indignation;
The lawyers making an address
Before stolid jury,
Can register acute distress,
Or roar with awful fury.
The person with a soul and heart
Through which wild thoughts are
flowing,
I'm told by scientists, can start
Electric currents going.
Which zigzag swiftly here and there,
And fill with high elation
Or brooding sorrow and despair
The people of the nation.
I'd like to send out waves which might
Arouse the sovereign voter,
Turn on the reading lamp at night,
Or even start my motor;
But I cannot !. Too late I see
That in my childhood's hour
Stern discipline crushed out of me
The light and heat and power.

gest that it be put in such posi-
ton on the bank building so that
it may be seen from any of the
main corners of the city and from

I also think that the Western

Plucked From the Plains
THAT PRETTY LITTLE GIRL
OF MINE

That pretty little girl of mine,
Who sits upon my knee,
With curly head upon my breast.
And fondly looks at me,
Will fill me with a sweet delight
To think that she is mine:
And how I love in her bright eyes
To see the love light shine.
She runs to hug and kiss me, too,
When e'er l come around,
And in my little girls embrace
The sweetest JOY is found.
Our homes place of sweet delight.
And like a dream divine,
When 1 am there and playing with
That little girl of mine.
That pretty little girl of mine
Is as charming as can be,
And she knows how, as older folks
To look bewitchingly;
And when a favor she will ask.
With eyes that brightly shine,
1t seems that can ne'er refuse

The breast-pangs of angina pee

The strain and stress of mental
work, or the destructive effects Of
worry, seem to be strong contribut-
ing factors in the development of
this vicious disorder which makes
so many people useless and helpless
because Of recurrent attacks. Every
disease must have certain toxemia
cause of physical nature before
such contributing mental causes
could have any possible effect.
Angina pectoris seems to be a kind
of neuralgia of the heart and AFTER
ial blood vessels. The toxemia re-
sponsible is apparently of the rheu-
matte type, and the same bad habits
which produce rheumatism in other
parts of the body are no doubt in
a large measure responsible for the
development of these neuralgia symp-
toms through the heart and adj
jacent arteries. Although this is the
fundamental cause, any irritation of
the gastro-intestinal tract may
rapidly precipitate an attack. Over

Incidentally, the one place I saw a

"wickedness" consists in the free

fact in mind and sometimes are re-
minded of it forcibly.
The recent experience Of General
Charles P. Summerall, the army's
chief-of-staff, may not have been
adequately explained. Summerall
was peremptorily ordered back from
the Pacific coast by his commander
in-chief after he was reported to
have criticized the administration
for failing to relieve the bad army
housing conditions.
It appears that the general was
speaking at private luncheon
where no reporters were supposed
to be present, and was explaining
to group of Californians why the
army couldn't establish an impor-
tant base in their territory.
Everything would have been all
right if he hadn't referred to the
administration" as he was said to
have done in published reports that
found their way out of the meeting.
On arriving back in Washington,
Summerall was kept waiting several
days before he saw the president.
But Secretary of War Davis called
at the White House in the meantime
and is supposed to have made ex-
plantations for the chief-of-staff.
Admiral Magruder of the Philadel-
phia navy yard, who stirred up so
much fuss with his criticisms of the
navy few weeks ago, was in the
capital the other day. He had only
one complaint on this visit and that
was made unofficially and privately
in the navy building. The admiral
thinks that the telephone operators
back at his navy yard ought to be
paid more money. They work like
lightning, the admiral says, and he
appreciates their speed and eff
cheney.
Admiral Magruder, take it from
your correspondent who met him for
the first time on his last visit, is
one Of the best.

Joy, pleased with her Importance
Of being the only person admitted
to Cherry's room, hustled in and
out, humping the walls with the
baby's crib as she awkwardly ma
neuvered it into Faiths room, and
making half dozen trips for Hopes
tiny clothes, soap, powder, nursing
bottles, etc. It was with sulky re.
luctance that she at last consented
to set out for school, leaving Faith
to her mornings homework and the
care of the baby.
She wanted nothing SO much as
to fall into her still unmade bed
and go to sleep, while this strange
Indifference and emotional apathy
lasted, promising her complete OBJ
livion. But there was the baby to
be bathed and dressed and fed;
three beds to be made, the bath
room to be made sweet and tidy
after Bob's tumultous session in it.
AS she busted and polished and
ran the vacuum cleaner she tried
to convince herself that she did
not intend to force herself upon
Cherry. If Cherry did not want to
see her, she certainly did not want
to see Cherry! She had had enough
of wheedling and notifying bad
tempered, selfish people. Good wom-
en-, unselfish women, women who
loved their husbands and families
devotedly were always made door
mats of. And she'd had enough of
being a doormat. From now on,
Bob and Cherry could do little
Cabling and modifying on their own
account, if harmony was to be at
tempted in this crazy household.
She'd show them! Nobody ever
wondered if she felt tired and i'll;
nobody tried to save her work or to
help her with it! Nobody tried to
win her into a good humor when
she felt dispirited and grouchy: Why,
she could not even enjoy the luxury
Of . spell Of the blues, for fear she
would depress her pampered sister
and husband. Well, she'd show them!

Editorial Comment
Politicians
(ToledO Blade)


Various explanations are published in con-
nection with the news of the resignation of
Mrs. Geraldine NJ Thompson, New Jersey
member Of the Republican national commit
tee. One story is that she quit active partcipa-
ton in politics on account Of the serious illness
of q relative Another is that she was disgust
ed with professional politicians who play
politics as game, yet often without regard to
the rules Of common honesty vital to any
sport"
Doubtless some men and women professional
politicians play the game dishonesty and un-
ethicaly. Most of them do not play it that way.
Politicians are recruited from the ranks of
lawyers, doctors, preachers, engineers, business
men, business women, workers of all kinds of
both sexes. They are fairly representative of
American citizenship.
Mrs. Thompson and other citizens can do
more to improve political conditions by getting
into politics and staying in than they possibly
can do by getting out Of politics.
We should quit only as Napoleon did,, when
there is nothing left but abdication.
