THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES Z. TRACEWELL.

Advocates OF dawn, all those who love
| the early hours Of light, find that Nature
makes many converts In hot weather.
Then even the most obdurate in the
cool hours Of the morning admit the
pleasant character Of this best time Of
the day.
From to 6 am. are ranked by many
as the very best Of the "a hours.
Hot, sticky weather puts q premium
on cool, dry air.
The nearest to 1t we ordinarily find
In Summer comes just in the time
mentioned.
Those most sensible citizens, the birds,
have known this for generations.
They begin to chirp at the first peep
for at least half an hour.
This is the chorus of the dawn, loved
by all those who have sense enough to
listen to 1t.
The world throws many gift unseen
at unopened eyes.
~
Insomnia, in a mild degree, has given
many a person an entirely new list Of
interests.
One of these is the morning chorus
of the birds.
The hearty sleeper misses 1t.
He is in the half -daZe which comes
after the first good sleep.
The first hours are precious, the latter
not so much so.
Still he is very much asleep during
those latter hours Just when the birds
are tuning up.
The light sleeper surely has the best
of it here, for he is fairly well wide
awake.
He misses no note Of the bird
symphony.
We have heard the bird chorus de-
scribed as akin to the tuning up OF an
orchestra, but surely it is not exactly
that. 1t is, rather. the symphony itself.
-
There are wise users Of Natures bene-
fits who manage to get the most from
her gifts.
A neglected gift, we may think, Is
that of the cool morning hours at this
time of year.
During long hot spells, especially the
hours mentioned hold the most comfort,
but that is not all. They are supremely
quiet.
The outbreak of the feathered song
sters does not last long After that sue
ceeds the most blessed quiet OF the live
long day.
Those who love to read, for instance,
well may find the very early morning
the very best time Of all. The same Is
true for writing.
Gardening is good, too, between 4
and 6 o'clock.
Garden inspection IS even better If
one desires to see the flowers at their
best they must be seen with the dew
on them.
The early morning hike Is not known
to as many persons as 1t should be. Yet
because of the comparative GOODNESS OF
these hours, even in the very hottest
weather, they are ideal for this form
Of amusement.
Then, too, streets are free from traf1c.
One will not meet on such walks one
tenth the cars ordinarily encountered
Just a few hours later.
The light effects of morning are en-
tirely different from those OF seemingly
similar hours in the evening.

Brain Trust.
A brain trust I should like to form,
Reliable and neat,
To shield my head against the storm
And not permit cold feet.
I'd like some rapid way to find,
No matter what the pains,
To know, when make up my mind,
1t is made up with brains.
And when I seriously move,
As now and then I must,
I would be sure the brains will prove
The kind that can trust.
The brain trust I would truly prize
My welfare will not shirk.
1t might be hard to organize
And maybe will not work.

It Is the difference between an in
cressing and waning light.
While each period has its merits, there
Is probably more to be said for dawn
both from an artistic and human
standpoint.
The two are not the same.
We might recognize the superior ar
tistic qualities of increasing light with
out in the least agreeing that the time
Of day held more for humanity.
In Summer, however, there Is not
much question about 1t.
Six O'Clock in the evening usually Is
breathless. Every one knows the peculiar
lack of wind at that hour. It Is famous
In song and story.
Six o'clock in the morning is fresh,
cool.
Usually there is some breeze stirring,
even on the hottest day.
This Is q comfort those who growl
about the heat should keep in mind.
1t is there for them II they are willing
to accept it consciously.
True, 1t Is there too, II one Is asleep.
The little birds in the trees open their
bills the farthest, as they sing the
loudest. and all together, to greet the
dawning, but the person asleep hears
them not; they are wasting their efforts
as far as he is concerned.
The universal balance of things keeps
true, though.
Hundreds of persons are awake, listen
ing, enjoying.
The cool of the morning, the bird
music-these are worth going to bed
little earlier for, so that one may be
really awake to greet them and know
them at their full value.
How sensible are sounds of Nature!
Consider the difference between the
rasping hum of some insect on hot
night and the curious, unvarying sound
Of applause after every radio number.
The latter resembles coal being put
down a chute, but because it is the same
each time, Just noise, it means nothing.
The noise of the insect means great
deal.
1t is his life. love, bread and butter.
1t Is he, life on o tree.
bullfrog in his pool.
It is not a meaningless noise, as
monotonous as it Is.
1ncTc Is SOHlcIllIllB plCdsiAb AIA ASo
very harshneSs, because it is a serious,
well-intended noise, without hypocrisy.
The French theater had its claque, and
had to pay for it. Modern radio makes
the members of it's studio claque pay for
the privilege-and how they do applaud,
in order to get their moneys worth
evidently.
Give us the sensible, hearty noises of
Nature.
Especially in the early hours when the
air is cool and sweet, even on the hot
test days.
Then the world is able to forget the
heat lulled by the good air, clean and
fresh.
This is air-conditioning with music,
but one must get up early to receive It's
full value, especially to appreciate It's
music
The birds wait on no man, only on
light. which, having received. they give
thanks for in the only way they know.
In the midst of busy days let us not
forget to show gratitude for such gifts
as are ours.

She has lucid mind that makes her rate
With women prominent in halls Of state,
Yet in the civic clubs to which they
throng
Her voice Is lifted only in q song,
And the bright hair that sweeps her oval
face
Is natural as her unstudied grace.
Often at eventide she gives me aid
In problems that life's politics have made;
Her delicate sagacity is sure e
To solve them in a way that will endure,
And she imparts a sense of zest and

Although she seems as fragile as .

REYNOLDS HITS
WORLD COURT
Calls Instead for Peace
Based on "American
Standards"

WASHINGTON, Ian. %. (UP)
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt last
night advocated American adher-
ence to the world court to safe
guard the youth of the future"
from death on the battlefield.
The presidents wife on radio
program followed Senator Robert
R. Reynolds, D., N. c., who called
the tribunal "this court of trick
cry and chicanery." Earlier in the
day Father Charles E. Coughlin,
Detroit, and Will Rogers, common
tator, had spoken against joining
the court.
Reynolds pleaded for peace
along the American standards OF
justice" rather than "the kind OF
international justice that will be
dished out to US through the world
court, a court presided over by,
and controlled by our enemies who
owe us money and won't pay us
those we befriended and who have
proven to be ingrates-who are
jealous and envious of u.s."
He pointed out that three wars
of conquest were now raging be-
tween members of the world court
Japan and China, Paraguay and
Bolivia, Italy and Ethiopia.
