More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES ). MONTAGUE
TO AN EGG

If Keats could have torseen cold
Storage)
Thou still unpoached associate of
ham,
Embryo broiler, whose maternal ties
Were sharply severed, while thy
screaming dam
Awoke the echoes with her rau-
cous cries
What little boys who sought. to rob
the nest
Which sheltered thy remote and
futile birth
Have lived their lingering years out
and grown old
And mingled with the mute, un-
needing earth
While thou whose tale of years is
still unguessed
Weret lying in carton, dark and
cold? n
Who are these coming to the market
place
To ask the price the years have
brought to thee,
And when they learn it, cry with
paling face
mo omelet, no souffle today for
me-"
What little child in Butte or Balti-
more,
Chicago, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Kali
ispel
Is empty of it's eggs this wintry
morn?
And little child thy egg-cup ever
Shall vacant. be, and not soul to
Why it is desolate shall ere re-
tur1ll fttit
Oh oval shape, soft edible whose
need lti.t 8
We fell, but feel in vain at break
fast time, .B}f
Oh treasure that few poets could
succeed
In buying with the proceeds OF
rhyme!
Remain within thy vault, cold pas
toral;
When old age doth this generation
waste
Thou shalt emerge, in midst of other
woe
Than ours, to jeer at man, to whom
thou say'st.
Money are eggs, eggs money, that is
Ye know on earth, and all we need
to know!

folks. Reform waves spread quicker
if they can dive their toes in these
sacred precincts and once Congress
passes a law for the district it's much
easier to get to pass a similar law
for the rest of the country
The fact that Congress has cooper
ated SO amiably in helping to prove
that theory is partly responsible for
the contempt in which it is held here
on its home grounds. The system
permits a congressman who may be
ability of all sorts of unethicaI prac-
tices to go back home and point to
a public record of righteousness. It's
a great fayorite for those who know
that their districts are hotbeds OF
bigotry and intolerance.
Such congressman, with an eye to
the blue nose vote, will again train
their loud speakers on the helpless
populace during the 10th Congress
when the Lankford Sunday closing
law bill is brought up again.
Representative Lankford, a for
mer city judge in Douglas, Ga, says
that Washington is the nations
"Sodom -of Ungodliness." His bill was

perennial here and friends of cler-
gymen and others who appeared
against the Lankford bill, the hear
ings were one long bedlam.
This year the blue law proponents
are more confident than ever, al
though only the fact that Washing
tonians have no vote would seem to
hold any hope that Congress would
pass such a bill
The opposition has been led by
the National Association Opposed to
Blue Laws which promises to bring
on group of nationally prominent
men to appear against the Lank-
ford bill when hearings are held
this year. Bowlbys organization, the
Lords Day Alliance, has been rails

its secretary treasurer is Linn A. E.

Not An Optimist

Tommy Jacobs, the cafe man, was
defending the increased prices to
dine without wine, "They blame it
on the cafe man, but anyone who
keeps house knows that the cost is
increased long before it reaches us. OF
course, the following is supposed to
be joke but it is the serious truth,
nevertheless.
Mrs Jones, you know, phoned the
butcher and asked him to send her
q dollars worth of meat. And she
added, if I'm not at home, poke it

The farmers are at odds over
what sort Of relief they want to
protect them from the laws of supply
and demand. More proof that the
farmer is a poor business man-no-
body ever heard of large corpora
tions squabbling in Washington over
the tariffs and other projections
they desired.
"Pulchritude," said Mayor Jimmy
Walker, to Ruth Elder, "is no bar
to courage" Nor to anything else
that we can think of.
Perhaps President Coolidge actu-
ally derived a thrill from having
all the transoceanic .fliers in to lunch,
but it's a good bet that the idea
was Mrs. Coolidges.
The story of the 52-year-old Hol-
lywood man who was killed in an
accident caused by his attempt to
kiss the lady driver is just one
more proof that driving should be
done in the back seat.
