Shooting Stors
BY PH1LANDER JOHNSON.

Illusion.
To the miser the moon is a coin of bright
gold
To the warrior bullet 1t seems;
To the lover a lantern which Cupid may
hold
To light up the pathway Of dreams.
To the sage It's a strangely mysterious
realm,
Whose study his life might employ;
To the sailor guide as he stands at the
helm;
To the infant coveted toy.
And the face that it frames every night
smiles anew
At the loves and the hatreds we find;
Since impressions depend on mans
point of view,
And likewise the state of his mind.

"You can't get something for nothing"
remarked the aphorist.
"And yet" answered the man who has
had dreams, II am sure all those purple
dragons and pink rhinoceroses got out
of that welsh rarebit were never put

"1s that man lobbyist?"
"My dear sir" answered Senator Sor-
ghum, there are no lobbyists. But there
must be patriotic people who give men,
bers of Congress advice on public needs
entirely outside their own range of ex-
perience."

The man who would advancement win,
Apologies must ne'er begin,
But meet all questioning with disdain
And make the other man explain.

had curious hobby. 1t was that of COL
lecting valentines and, after the Christ
mas card fashion captured the public
fancy, the collecting of the latter. He
must have been indefatigable in his
collecting, as much so as the most en-
thusiastic philatelist of today, for he
collected literally millions. The collec-
ton is contained pasted in no less than
$4,000 volumes of scrapbooks.
Nearly every one knows how impecuni-
GUS artists were in the 10Th century, as.
indeed, sney are now. Men who had
already achieved some note and others
who later were to become famous, seized
on every opportunity to pick up q few
extra dollars here, shillings in England.
francs in France, marks in Germany,
and so on, eagerly submitted designs for
Christmas cards-this new vehicle of ar
tistic expression-to publishers. The re-
suits. according to the old collections,
were somewhat appalling. The most
amazing varieties of designs were used.
1t was the great American caricaturist
Thomas Mast who invented the figure
which every one recognizes as Santa
Claus at about this very time and prob
ably for this very purpose. Others in
troduced the holly wreaths, winter
scenes, plum pudding motifs, and the
things commonly associated with Christ
mas. Not all the artists fell into this
line, however. For example, there is
really charming Christmas card designed
by Kate Greenaway which depicts
half dozen dancing maidens in costumes
which do not suggest Christmas at all
and strewing flowers and garlands not
ordinarily associated with the season.
Many rather well-painted summer scenes
appear.

present national defense, including the
Army and Navy, is costing 81 900 900 600
year. Projected plans NAV raise this
to $l,350,O0O000. That larger figure
gong along with reductions in relief out
lays and some other Government ex-
pendltures-would hardly strain this
Natlons economy or force American in
oustry to go on war footing.
One Dig question mark continues, how
ever 10 af1ect defense plans. That uues-
tlon mark grows from the Presidents
reference to hemisphere defense"
Army otncers, who know what is going
on IN the world, doubt If Germany or
Japan or Italy or any other outside ma
lion has any intention to send over a
Meet and an army to seize a foothold in
south or Central America. What the
officers do expect is that some nations
may be interested in stirring up revolu-
tlonS within the nations of this hemi-
sphere IN order to establish governments
that Will be friendly to the totalitartan
idea.
That raises the question: Does the
United States intend to police the ma
tions OF this hemisphere to keep down
revolutions and to maintain In power
governments that are friendly to this
country? If so, would this policy call
Tor permanent expeditionary force? If
not, just what does hemisphere defense
involve?
At the moment and in the period i'm
medlately ahead, emphasis is to be on
equipping the United States with q
strong Navy and with facilities that are
needed BY . modern but su,au Army.

REPLACEMENTS ON
 VOTING LIST SET
Personal Appearances at Registrars Office Only
 Necessity

By agreement of the registrars ot voters, and answering number of complaints received over the conduct of the recent Republican.devised canvass of voters which resulted in elimination of many voters whose names appeared last year on the list, there will be further conSidera- ton of the rights of these voters.
 By making personal appearance at the offlce of the registrars before the eve of election day, Nov. 6, iA has been agreed that voters may have their names replaced on tho list.
 This is in line with adjustment ol the matter made ct conference Of the Republican town chairman, the corporation counsel and the regis- trars yesterday.
 Some question as to tho number of persons dropped from the list was raised c while ago by various ofi- cialS after Republicans had claimed that the list had been "purged." Examination of this claim showed that the average number of removals had been noted but that the can. vassers had listed many residents of Waterbury in duplicate, even tripli- cate, which caused some eliminations that remain to be checked.
