' ' ' Rippling Rhymes. 1ARM AND CITY The hours of night bring calm re pose upon the quiet farm; the weary husban.lmun there knows sweet slum ber's fullest charm. Refreshed in spir it, brain and brawn, he rises, wearing bells when dlpply roosters greet the dawn with idiotic yells. How different It is In town, where weary people weep; in vain the laborer lies down to have a slice, of sleep. The streets ate full of strident noise that jars the nightly fchades. and giddy girls and buoyant boys sing ragtime serenrulej. And batty speedsters whiz along In whanging motor cars, and greet with yells and ribald song the pale, disgust ed stars. " Belated plugs, with noisy hoofs, to stables gallivant, and vagrant cats on metal rooms attempt a bug house chant. And so the man who needs his sleep becomes a ghastly wreck; and in the morn he cannot keep from muttering, "By heck!" A right of sleep would soothe his soul, and heal life's sores and stings, but itiornina: finds him In the hole, and he exclaim, "By jlngs!" . Odds and Ends GIVE IUOIt TOREK OIF.KItS A lady received the following reply from a neighbor in answer to a ques tion as to why she allowed her chil dren and her husband to litter up ev ery room In the heuse. The sentiment will find lod,?ment in the heart of very home loving person In the land: "The marks of little muddy feet upon the floor can be more easily re noved than the stains where the lit tle feet go Into the highways of sin. Tlxe prints of the little fingers upon the window jnnes cannot shut out the unshine half so much as the shadows that darken the mother's heart over the one who will be but a name in the coming years. "And if my John finds home a i-efuge from care and his greatest happiness within its four walls, he can put his boots In the rocking chair aud hang his hat on the floor any day in the week. And if I can stand it and he enjoys it, I cannot see that it is anybody's business." S. R. Bulletin. Salem Students At 0. A. C. .

""vf 5 !i PERHAPS the most memcient body in the worm is tne United States senate. No other aecreszation of men talk so much and do so little and take themselves so ser iously. Any private business managed by such a body of incompetents would be hopelessly bankrupt. " Since convening last December the present session has spent its effort playing politics. None of the great reconstruction measures outlined by the president have been enacted. Peace is as far off as ever and the league of nations still on the distant horizon of dreams. Without constructive ability of its own, the senate can only employ its energies in destruction. Offering- no solution of the problems confronting the nation, it sav agely assails those offered by the executive. Without vision for the future, it is absorbed in ward caucus pol itics while the nation drifts helplessly in a sea of unrest. The senate's unfailing solution of national ills is in vestigation, with the object of creating political capital. It has spent a year investigating without action. War ex penditures, high cost of living, Bolshevism, railroads, strikes and every other issue has been met with an offi cial investigation in which some peanut politician sought glory. Abuse of those who have done something is the sen ate's occupation and recreation. It has the sluggards hat red for the doer. Day in and day out these public para sites have poured their demagogic venom over the presi dent, over Hoover, over Pershing, over all those with a record of accomplishment seeking thereby personal pub licity to promote their individual candidacies for office. The fact that the senate refuses to vote on the peace treaty and may adjourn without action upon it, thereby lengthening the period of uncertainty, unrest and discord, and prolong indefinitely the period of reconstruction, should surprise no one. In so acting the senate is merely true to form. The great surprise would be if after 125 days continuous debate, it acted definitely upon anything. - READJUSTMENT. ' ' When they have finished break fast," I said to myself, "John will bring the man over and introduce him to me." And I somewhat surreptitiously glanced into one of the long mirrors with which the room was adorned. Although in our hurry, we had-taken no baggage from Helen's,. I was very glad that my dark blue-serge was irre proachagly cut and tailored, and that I had early formed the habit of putting an extra lace collar in my hand bag. I had hardly finished these reflections when to' my surprise John and the man walked out of the room without a glance in my direction. "Why, he has absolutely forgotten me! Forgotten he is married!" I felt the tears spring to my eyes and then I laughed. "Did ever a bride have such an experience before?" My sense of humor saved me. Even then I did not realize that with John the idea of the moment, .the na tion of the moment, was all engrossing that he was able to sweep his mind clear of everything except the matter upon which he was bent. . Many times since then I have thought of this and I have come to the opinion that this is one of the reasons why men, as a rule, are more successful in their un dertakings than women. Wre women are too diffuse. I have never known anything or any one that has made It possible for me to dismiss entirely from my conscious ness, John Gordon, my husband. Yet I have had many other interests, amusements, duties and distractions. Perhaps it is because of this that I have not made a success of marriage If I, too, could have forgotten John for a little time I might have made my self more necessary tq him made him feel that I was worth pursuing again I wish I had felt this that morning. Instead, I was very young, and al though I laughed, there was a hurt feeling all the same. (Continued tomorrow.) SOME 400,000 coal miners are on strike in the bitumin ous coal fields for a 60 per cent increase in wages, and a five day six hour week. In New York drivers for butchers and provision deal ers are on strike for a 6-hour day and a scale running from $102 minimum to $245.50 a week. In Pacific coast cities, tailors are on strike for a 45- hour week with a wage scale of $1.00 an hour, including iuli pay lor holidays when no work is performed. Thousands of other strikes are in progress all over the country. Some of the strikes are justified by condi tions; others are political and with the avowed intention of confiscating property and bringing on revolution, all symptoms of national unrest. Profiteering, the high 'cost of living, the spread of Bolshevism, and the passions aroused by the world war are all contributing causes. Capital has been too greedy, workers have curtailed production and .lowered efficiency and alien vagaries have replaced the good old American doctrine of toil and thrift. The nation is passing through a trying ordeal-the period of reconstruction, readjustment of the old order to fit the new. Whether it weathers the crisis will depend upon the loyal co-operation of every lover of his country. Reaction and l'adicalism are equally dangerous. Progress can only come through the rule of reason. Increased production will lower the cost of living, the law of supply and demand will eventually eliminate pro fiteering. Bolshevism will go the way of other ""isms" and crazes and if law and order and common sense pre vail, stable conditions will gradually obtain and life re sume the normal. North Howell, Nov.c4.

Those very words tell the story: John was still "man" but I had become "wife." In some Indefinable way, John seem ed to have gotten the idea that .the wooing was over. I know that uncon sciously I had this feeling, and for th first- time since I had known John I tremulously asked, as I raised my face to his for the frlst nuptial kiss: "Do you really love me?" lTp to this time it had been John who had asked me over nnd over ngain if I leally loved him. But instead of ask ing me n gul n he brusquely answered: "Why. of course I do. Haven't I married you?" That was John's Idea of humor, and because it is never mine, we have for ever quarreled on the definition of the word. ' : The morning after we were married. John left mo to go down Into the din ning roam, saying: "Don't be long. What's become o' th' ole time wo men that used t' rawhide men iu pub. lie?

When I reached the dining room I found a number ot things which I never eat placed in an orderly row about my plate, but no John. For a moment my heart stood still nnd I won dered if I had been too long In dress ing. Then I decided that it had not been more than ten minutes and began to eat the fruit and toast which I se lected from the other food. Calling n waller, I asked him to take everything but the toast and cof fee-away .and then in as careless a manner as I could summon, I asked: "Did Mr. Gordon finish his break fast so quickly?" "No, inndame. just as he was order ing he saw- a friend across the room nnd he asked me to serve your break fast here and his with his friend.' I looked over into a far corner of the dining room and saw John sitting at a tnblo with a very dignified person age, a man of perhaps fifty years. In a mome it, T Intuitively understood the whole transaction. John hud seen this man, wli.i was probably one of his best clients, or one he would like to secure, ami had gone over to talk business with him dining the breakfast hour. My self-explanation satisfied me and I composedly settled myself to fin ish my breakfast, wishing all the time that John had left me his morning pa per.
