I've watched him change from his
bibs and tilings, from bonnets
known as "cute," -To
little frocks, and later on I saw
him don a suit;
And though it was of calico, those
knickers gave him Joy,
Until the day we all agreed 'twas time
for corduroy.
I say I've seen the changes come, it
seems with bounds and leaps.
But here's another just arrived he's
playing mibs for keeps!
The guide posts of his life fly by.
The boy that is today.
Tomorrow morning We may wake to

And in his place will be a lad we've
never known before,
Older and wiser In his ways and filled
with new-found lore.
Now hero's another boy today, count
ing his marble heaps .
And proudly boasting to his dad he's
playing mibs for keeps!
(Copyright, 1921,
His mother doesn't like this change.
She says it is a shame
That since he plays with larger boys
he's bound to lose the game.
But little do I mind his loss; I'm more
concerned to know
The way he acts the tlmas when he
must see his marbles go.
And oh, I hope he will not be the lit
tle boy who weeps
Too much when he has failed to win
while playing mibs for keeps.
Playing for keeps! Another step to
ward manhood's broad estate!

destiny, or fate.
Yet from this game with marbles,
played with youngsters on the
street.
I hope you'will come a larger boy. too

And by these mibs which from his
clutch another madly sweeps.
I hope he'll learn the game of life
which must be played for keeps.

WHAT THE FLAG SAID
-f (By Franklin K. Lane.)
I AM not the flag ; not at all. 1 am but its shadow.
I am whatever you make me ; nothing more.
I am your belief in yourselves, your dream of what a
people may become.
I live a changing life, a life of moods and passions, of heart
breaks and tired muscles
Sometimes I am strong with pride, when men do an honest
work, fitting the rails together truly.
1 Sometimes I droop, for then purpose has gone from me, and
cynically I play the coward.
Sometimes I am loud, garish, and full of that ego that blasts
judgment, but always I am all that you hope to be and have the
courage to try for.
I am song and fear, struggle and panic and ennobling hope.
I am the day's work of the weakest man and the largest
dream of the most daring.
I am the constitution and the courts, statutes and the statute
makers, soldier and dreadnaught, drayman and street sweep,
cook, counsellor and clerk.
I am the battle of yesterday and the mistake of tomorrow.
I am the mvsterv of the men who do without knowing why.
I am the clutch of an jdea and the reasoned purpose of reso
lution.
I am nd more than what you believe me to be and I am all
that you believe I can be.
I am what you make me ; nothing more.
I swing before your eyes as a bright gleam of color, a sym
bol of yourself, the pictured suggestion of that big thing which
makes this nation. My stars and my stripes are your dream and
your labors. Thev are bright with cheer, brilliant with courage,
firm with faith, because you have made them so out of your
heart;' you are the makers of the flag, and it is well that you
glory in the making.

ME would think that the war had taught us to value a thor
f I nnarhlv iin-tn-Hate naw and an efficient air service if
nothing els6 in the way of military preparedness. Yet
some people consider it the height of wisdom to slash theaval
appropriation bill regardless of the fact we are not in the
League of Nations or any other world combination for preserv
ing peace. These people view with disfavor the strengthening
of the navy although we are admittedly outclassed at present
by Great Britain and regardless of the fact Japan has an am
bitious navy building program under way. They are unmoved
by the fact our administration is pledged to change the Panama
canal tolls act in seeming disregard of a treaty with England.
They are unmindful of the fact tiie status of the Anglo-Japanese
alliance is not yet determined. They fail to consider that
part of Europe is under a bolsheviki regime that makes open
war on democracy and that the rest of the big European states
never know from day to day what dangrers they may face on the
morrow. Our pacificts ignore the fact that the world has been
shown to be small and that when a big fire rages the flames
may easily reach our shores.
These people are making a mistake. If they had their way
they could lead us into blunders that might prove disastrous.
We want peace and disarmament and we should be actively
leading a world move to make peace and disarmament effective
and sure. But until we do that and bring about security it
would be insane for America to neglect its sea strength. Until
we get a fire department we can count upon it would be folly
to tear the fire extinguisher from the wall and the hose bib
from the kitchen sink.
A Southern Oregon paper expresses the hope of the state
about the 1925 exposition in Portland is that it wont be run like
the Portland 'ball team-
Much to the joy of the farmers the wheat market is taking
on some needed weight with the advent of springtime.

Take by Force Positions of

ROME. May 1!). (O. P.) Italian
soldiers who were mure or less mutl
lnted during the war lutely have taken
the law into their own hands and have
sw.'irmecf in thousands into many of

many young women who gained a foot

Newspapers are being flooded with
letters, some few of thrm arguing that
he women clerks have earned the
right to work if they please, and to
ipport themselves, but most of the
riters telling lurid and terrible talcs
of the frivolity of these daughters of
Eve; of the little work they do and
the great amount of time they waste
on flirtations and on their toilettes: of
the alleged subversive effect they
have in well-resulated ministries, and
of many families whose peace is said
to have been undermined by their
dangerous proxmity to staid and re
spectable men.
At any rate It appears that soldiers
who have served their country have
made good their claim to the coveted
positions and, both in Rome and In
many provincial towns the edict has
gone forth that the girls must go.

MEMBER OF HOUSE OF
COMMONS WHO KNIT
SOCKS PASSES AWAY
LONDON", May 19. (A. P.)
The death of J. Oithcart Wason,
member of parliament for the
Orkney and Shetland Islands, re-
moves one of the most original
characters in the house. Jlr.
Wason was "8 years old and
stood six feet six inches In
height.
He developed the curious ha-
bit, some years ago of knitting
socks during slack lime In the'
commons, not actually in the
house but in the tea room or one
of the whips' rooms, while unin-
teresting debates were going on
in the chamber.
He said his original purpose
in learning to knit was-to corn-
mend himself to the women-
folk of Orkney and Shetland
during his electoral enmnaftma.
but he found afterwards that it
was a sootliinir occunntinn for
dull hours.
VICTIM OF ILUCT LOVE
W lvTIIKuFI KLD, Conn.. May 19.
(U P.) The hanging of IClwood 11.
Wade, scheduled fur tonight, will be
the third death to result from a man's
wild infatuation for another's wife.
When the youthful milk wagon driv
er became unduly alternative to the
fair Mrs. Ethel Hutchins Nott in the
summer of 19!0. there was no shadow
of the Impending tragedy. Both prin
cipals apparently lived happily with
their respective families In their homes
In Bridgeport. Mrs. Nott is 3d; Wade
is 23. The latter has two children,
Oertrude 5, niul-lClbert 3, - and Mrs.
Nott had two children, tieorgc 5, and
Mildred 3.
The first death was that of George
B. Nott, gambler by profession, who
was attacked while sleeping In the at
tic of his homo and later killed in the
struggle. A heavy piece of pipe, a
carving knife and a revolver were
used. The persons who committed
this murder were, according to testl
mony at the trial, Klwood B. Wade
and John il Johnston, who was em
ployed by Wade on the lutter's milk
route.

The second death was that of John
ston's aged mother, who died Febru
ary 28 of a broken heart.
And the end is not yet. When Mrs,
Nott stands trial she will be faced by
Homer S. Cumings, state's attorney
and former chairman of the democrat
ic national committee, and the main
instrument in sending Wudo to the
death house.
Johnston, it was believed, may es
cape with a light sentence for his part
in assisting the prosecution in Wade s
trial. This 20-year-old youth was the
first to break down and tell the police
of the murder.
The murder of Nott was carefully
planned, and deliberately end method
ically consummated. None of the
principals with the exception of John
ston, appeared' unduly excited when
committing the deed, testimony at
Wade's trial revealed. A player piano,
with a roll of jazz music on it, was
played to drovn the sounds of the
struggle.
On Sunday morning, August 29,
George Nott came home after being
out all night, slapped his wife's face.
went up to the attic and to bed. Mrs.
Nott called Wade on the telephone.
Summoning his hired man, John
ston, and getting a heavy piece of pipe,
the two men drove to the Wade home.
Mrs. Nott admitted them, and the pair
crept up the stairs to the attic after
shedding their shoes and stockings.
Raising his heavy pipe Wade struck
-Vott five times over the head. Nott
awoke, screaming and grappled with
his assailant. Wade then fired twice.
Airs. Nott emerged from nij Inner room
and handed Wade a . huge carving
knife, it was testified at tho trial.
Physicians said they found 1" knifo
