 No one can fail to notice in studying the third term tradition that opposition to third terms is always most pronounced in those who are opposed to the potential third-termer anyway.
 More than 100 resolutions have been introduced in congress in effort to solidify the third term tradition into constitutional law, but up to now 1t remains what 1t always has been-either an in- consequential political superstition or a bulwark of free government, according to your point of view and who's running.

THE WIND STORM

And now the contour Of the mountains crest Has changed to choppy seas. As agitated waters wash New virgin lands of mystery. The evening star returns in dazzling dress, Bright herald of the twilight hour. Birds and foxes are watching Tn the shadow of the pines, As the flame of day expires Above silent peaks Of greenish gold. New fantasies are woven: Eternitys great spell Enwraps the limbs of men Where falling stars seek desert dust.
