There was another Importnnt
meeting In tho Poets Corner Satur
day evening. In tho absence of the
President Jack Flanagan, who had a
bnnquot engagement, R. O. Graves
called tho rhymesters to order. Tom
Dennett nroso nnd said ho disliked to
mention it but ho heard nit ugly ru
mor to tho effect that Jack Flanagan
did not wrlto tho pooms to which hi
namo was attached. Frank Parsons
promptly aroso and snld ho hoped It
was not professional Jealousy that
prompted tills fling at an absent
brother. Mr. Parsons nlso BaM he
wished to present a now namo for
consldorntlon, Hnrry Winkler. The
Quiet Obsorvor sold ho desired to
absolve Mr. Dennett from any reflec
tions of professional Jealousy ns his
verso wos of a different school of
poetry; besides ho nlso hoard tho
rumors concerning Flanagan's auth
orship and enmo prepared with a de-
fonBO which ho would road If thore
woro no objections. As John doss
was also nbsont thero woro no re

sented tho following:

(Lines provoked by tho question:
"Does Jack Flanagan rcnlly write

Does ho wrlto his own stuff? What

Why, Jack Ib a scholarly boy.
Ho pours without any suggestion
Tho Inngungo you'ro suro to onjoy.
I
He's ns fast as a ghost ns a typist;
Ho can rnttlo It off In n trice.
His pooms nro truest nnd rlpost
And you don't hnvo to pruno 'cir
or slice.
His stylo Is conclso, elenr nnd toppy.
He smoothes It nnd puts It nwny,
And tho finicky gent rending copy
Is hung up with nothing to say.
Why, Jack Is a classical writer
A poet both Insldo and out.
Ills pooms nro heavy or light or
Havo no rhymo or renson nbout
Ho also can slug llko Caruso

"Lot's tnlk It over."
This "unknown" nuthor han seer
fit to point nut Judgo Coke's unques

mitted him to bo n lawyer of un
questioned ability, nnd by Innuondos
would draw In question his Integrity.
So, tho only question to bo determin

Judgo Coko received tho largest votr

Why, oven this "unknown" author
(who It would seem Is nshamod of
his namo) says; "Against Judge
