More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES ). MONTAGUE
A HARD LOSER

l like a man who cannot quit,
Who though his chance is slender
OF winning, never will admit
That he must needs surrender.
l like a man who in "a fight
Though sli m m er grow his
chances,
Turns neither back nor left nor
right
But stubbornly advances.
When airplanes first sailed DER the
sands
On fleet and snowy pinions
Where sheiks, commanding swarthy
bands
Once held their proud dominions,
Though still the same old tropic
sun
Shone on the desert rover;
The camels plodding day seemed
done,
The sheik's domain seemed over.
Yet did the Arab cease to fight,
Or scrap his beasts of burden
And yield to the invading white
The victory or guerdon?
Not he; upon his sunburnt brow
Were set no shameful trammels,
The master of the desert now
Is breeding faster camels-

Propelled by camel power
Across the desert ever can
Make seven miles an hour
Against two hundred-even more
Which men achieve in flying,
Yet I admire the Arab, for
The lad does keep on trying.

director of the farmers national
council, was talking to Washing

especially in the form of co-opera-

but how much better off, at that,
the farmer is than he used to be.
"The farm today boasts its auto,
telephone, tractor and radio set,
tiled bathroom and player piano,
whereas the gaunt farmer of the
past would trudce into the general

canned goods with hungry eyes and
