A chair at a Red Cross sale in
Kansas sold for $142, while a
much more valuable mule brought
only $34.75. It YiUo sometimes
happens that the Red Cross gains
the least from those who are able
to give the most. Hut the chief
thing about the Red Cross is that
it always manages, somehow.
Speaking of the candidacy of
F. C. Harley, mayor of Astoria,
the “ beer and wine” candidate for

says; "O f course, if Harley should

SUBSTITUTES
The German» are feeding
On substitute meat,
The flour they are kneading
Is substitute wheat.
Their cattle they fodder
On substitute hay.
And life’s growing odder
And odder each day.
They smoke—with great loathing—
Their substitute weeds.
And aubstitute clothing
Is made for their needs;
They’ ve substitute money
And substituse cheese
And substitute honey
From substitute bees.
They settle their quarrels
By substitute law.
Their substitute morals
Cause deeds that are raw.
Their car wheels are creaking
With substitute grease
And now they are seeking
A substitute peace.
And when they are peeved by
Real woe and distress.
They're tricked and deceived by
A substitute press;
Their thoughts and their ways, too.
Are sure to be odd
While Kaiser Bill prays to
A substitute God!
