ARIZONA POET
SECURES LEASE
ON OLD MANSION

People who have met Sharlot M.
Hall will be interested to know that
on June 20 a lease was signed by
which Miss Hall, the well known Arl-
zona poet, came into possession for
the term of her life of the old log
building at Prescott. This building
was for many years known as the
''old capitol" and officially as the
''old gubernatorial mansion but bet
ter known to most Prescott people
as ''The old Fluery House."
In 1917 the state of Arizona pur-
chased this property from the private
owners and turned it over to the city
of Prescott to be preserved as a
landmark of early Arizona.
Various plans for it's preservation
and use have been suggested but
nothing definite was done until a
life lease was given Miss Hall.
Miss Hall will occupy the building
and place her collection OF historical
objects there as soon as possible
Eventually the grounds will be made
into park of native shrubs ana
wild flowers and the old building
will be restored to as nearly the
original as possible.

Even such spirited and rhythmic poem as Mase-

Not of the princes and pledates with periwigged

The men of the tattered battalion which fights till

Dazed with the dust of the battle the din and the

The men with the broken heads and the blood run

But the lads who carried the koppe and cannot be

Not the ruler for me. but the ranker, the tramp Of

The slave with the sack ON his shoulders priced on

The man with too weighty burden, too weary a

The sailor, the stOker of steamers. the man with

The drowsy man at the wheel and the tired lookout

Poetry and Revolution

Revolutionary poetry may be the result either
OF deep protest or discomfort OF radical change
in society. There revolutionary poetry In Rus
sia before the late Revolution of the Bolsheviki
and there revolutionary poetry, too in Ger
many in the eighteentwentes, long before the pro-
letariat organized into either party or union
1t Is clear that certain dissections and definitions
are imperative. In the first place. revolutionary
poetry. it is obvious, is the result of an exciting
and agitatng social urge. 1t could scarcely arise
In placid society. 1t discloses the existence of
social struggle and conflict. The artist is often
unaware of the entire Implications and extensions
of his revolt. OF course, there artists who are
consciously revolutionary in their social attitude
as well as their esthetc. The latter however are
fewer In number than the former. The reaction
of the artist Is part Of the behavior Of social
change. The extensity and intensity of his revolt
is dependent upon his chemistry of character
well as his degree Of social vision Social vision
alone does not give genius to the artists touch
but it is the necessary background for great social
art, the production Of moving social beauty.
Poems OF protest are abundant; poems Of feyo-
lution are few. poem such as Francis Adams'
To the Christians.
Take, then. your paltry Christ,
Your gentleman God.
s We want the carpenters son,
pAQ e. With his saw and hod.
We want the man who loved
The poor and the oppressed
VINO mated the rich man and king
And the scribe and the priest
We want the Gailean

It's your good taste' that prefers
bastard "God!"
is certainly denunciatOry of the bourgeoisie, but
with its Christian sentimentalism is assuredly not
a poem of revolutionary vision. Margaret Widde-
mer's Factories is poem of social appeal:
/ have shut my Little sister from life and light
(For a rose for ribbon, for wreath across my
hair),
/ have made her restless feet still until the night
Locked from sweets of summer and from wild spring
air;
I who ranged the meadow lands, free from sun to
sun,
Free to sing and pull the buds and watch the far
wings fly,
have bound my sister till her paying-ti is done
oh, my little sister, was it Twas it /?

How shall she pass scathless through the snit dark?

! who could have love and mirth before the light
went by,

Sister, my young sister,-was it I?-was it L?

breast

and lawn,

West End Citizens Leave
Council Change Decision
to Their Judgment.

The West End Citizens Association.
after lengthy discussion last night,
decided to leave its delegates to the
Federation Of Citizens Associations
free to exercise their judgment on
pending proposals to change the make
up or powers of the Citizens Advisory
Council.
Grover w. Ayers, one of the West
End delegates. told his associates that
giving the council too much power
would weaker the federation itself.
Mr. Ayers said that he was willing
that Federal employees as group
should have proportionate representa-.
tion on the advisory council, but that
he thought the trade organizations of
the city had a right to object to a
council made up largely of Govern
ment workers and others.
w. I Swanton of the Columbia
Heights Citizens Association, and a
former member of the council. was a
guest at West End last night and
outlined the work the council has
done.
Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter praised the
members of the council for the pub
lie spirit that prompts them to give
much of their spare time to civic
endeavor, and urged the West End
citizens not to oppose a movement
that is trying to do good work. Since
no formal action was taken, the West
End delegates will use their own dis
cretion when the question of revising
the councils constitution comes up.
The West End group designated
Mrs. Rafter to represent it in the
District Public School Association.
The meeting. presided over by Frank
Van SAINT. was held in Corcoran
