Reward Of Merit.
Perhaps no one will thank you for the
efforts that you make
To spare the feelings Of friend or
foe
When you listen to story just for old
acquaintance's sake
And laugh at anecdotes Of long ago.
Your great forbearance toward the man
who slaps you on the back
And wrings your hand until It's linn
and lame,
Its due appreciation on this earth may
sadly lack,
But the angels will record IL Just the
same.
Be patient, friend, and do not smite
the person at the play
Whose rhythmic feet keep tapping on
your chair,
Nor threaten him who huns the tunes
the orchestra may play
Or to his friend relates the plot with
care.
IT'S true, your little sacrifices made
from day to day
Scant notice from the busy world will
claim.
They may be dismissed as trifies, as the
crowd moves on its way,
But the angels viii record them Just
the same.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PH1LANDER JOHNSON.

Uncertainties.
Now April, with complete disdain,
Displays her moods In every place,
The poor thermometer in vain.
Endeavors to keep up the pace.
One day warm zephyrs lightly noat
And next a sullen sky you scan,
And as you don your overcoat
You also grab a palm-leaf fan.
You think that you ere long will wear
A hat Of straw; and next you fear
That you.must have with cunning care
A muff adjusted to each ear.
And when toward wooded heights you
make
A journey, lured by poisoning charm,
You wonder If you'd better take
Some snowshoes underneath your arm.

THE FARMER AND THE SPECU.
IATOR

The farmer raises the wheat but the commission
man makes the dough.
When nature is kind to the wheat grower and
sends him rain and sunshine as if by ORDER re-
sulting in bountiful harvest the law of supply
sits on his neck like the Old Man of the Sea on
Snbad the Sailor. 1t means low prices. Too
much wheat
When nature is cruel and rain takes a vacation,
leaving the hot sun to scorch the plains, and roast
grasshoppers, the speculator takes the law of de-
mand by the ear and imprisons it in an elevator.
So it looks as if bad crop is no worse for the
farmer than good one.
The commission his brain. 1t makes
10 difference whether he votes the Democratic or
Republican ticket he is master of his fate and the
captain of his SOUL if any,
This year the farmer thot high price would
help to make up for a scanty crop But he reck-
nned without his speculator
The commission grabbed every bit of ele
vator space in sight and started in boarding corn
for a rise in the market. That rise is bound to
come. The farmer is left without place to store
his grain. He is at the mercy of the commission
men, True he can get better price for it across
the Canadian border, and make profit over what
his produce commands here, despite the payment
of duty. But the patriotic American commission
men are bowling for an embargo on grain exports
to Canada and they may be successful. It seems
that robbing the farmer is one of the favorite
American sports.
The farmers helped elect Hoover president.
Hoover organized a farm relief board and placed
Mr.. Alexander Legge, the 100000 chief of the
Harvester company at the head Of it. The farm
ers voted for Hoover and High Prices They are
getting it in the neck. They would be better
off if they elected Al Smith. Al and Herbert
were simply competitors for the job of serving
Wall Street. Herbert won-that's all.
So far, LegCe has confined his activities to pull
ing the farmers leg. He is chanting new YER
sion of, you'll get pie in the sky when you die"
If the farmer can, "wait and pray, live on hay"
he'll be alright.
In the meantime what about telling Mr. Legge
TO shake a leg and do something? If Mr.. Legge
doesn't give the farmer relief, President Hoover
should relieve Mr.. Legge of his job.

THE UNIVERSAL DRAFT

The Veterans of Foreign Wars is in favor of
universal draft that would "take the profteering
out of war" So is the American Legion. So is
your OLD
That there are naive people in this world who
believe the is made of green cheese cannot
be gainsaid. There people so gullible that
they think the earth is flat and that prohibition is
a success.
But the holeess doughnut goes to the sap who
believes that war can be run without the element
of profiteering.
The late made thousands of brand new mil
Eonaires The next war will in all probability
make twice many The next war will be fought
by the young manhood of the United States, with
the capitalists cheering them to where "the leaden
hail pours thickest and steel meets steel with the
sharpest clang" In other words, it will be the
perience of the last learned again.
Secretary of War Good has written a draft bill
which is before congress. The veterans are
skeptical of it. 1t seems to them only measure
to draft man-power and let capital escape. Bless
their hearts What else did they expect?
If those who want war and help bring such a
terrible catastrophe on the people had to do the
fighting there would be war, but as long as
those who have to do the fighting support capital
ism what can they expect? God only helps them

SECRET DIPLOMACY

"Open covenants openly arrived at" was one of
the famous twelve points enunciated by the late
Woodrow Wilson, as the basis for postwar poll
cy, which would bring peace and happiness to war
weary humanity. Well, you know what happened.
After the war the diplomats of the great powers
met in sound-proof cellars and guarded their
crets with zeal and some success. The masses
could not be trusted.
Came the farm relief board.
The purpose of this board was to aid the farm
ers and particularly the grain growers. One would
imagine that they should not have any secrets
from those whom they were organized to assist.
But it seems they have

But when few farmer papers from the North

THE PROTECTIVE TARIFF

Walsh and Wheeler, professional democrats, are
now denouncing the republican tariff program
Their course of reasoning may be traced to their
pretended ability to distinguish the Republican the
cry of tariff for protection" from the Democratic
theory of tariff for revenue only" Under both
theories the high cost of living has been outstand-
