LESTER CALHOUN HAS
T TASTE OF REAL WINTER
AX ANCIENT WEAPON
Samson slew his thousands with
the jawbone of an ass. In his hand
It was an efficient weapon and creat
ed consternation among the enemy,
While its use as an implement of war
bo far as history records ended
then and there, the same old jawbone
is causing some consternation today.
It was used at Portland yesterday
when Floyd Hyde, the shipwrights'
delegate to the labor convention,
stated with much gusto that "Russia
is more democratic than the United
States." and that "the United States'
troops now in Russia are interna
tional scabs."
It was the same old jawbone that
is so commonly found controlling
labor conventions; the jawbone of a
radical, disloyal agitator. As a rule
these hot-headed members are in
the minority at such meetings, but
through persistence and hard fight
ing, coupled with a super-abundance
ot the above-mentioned jawbone
they generally secure control and
take the bit in their teeth.
Hyde is furious because the Unit
ed States is interfering in Russia. He
states that "Russia today with her
soviet, representing 80 per cent of
her people, has a better representa
tlon than we are getting."
As proof that Hyde's rail tings
are merely jawbone brayings, we
will state that neither he, nor any-
other man in America at the present
time, knows-of the true conditions In
Russia. That country Is torn asun
der with anarchy and revolution and
divided into many factions. Every
thing is chaos and there Is no way,
until an election is held in which all
of Russia's people have a right to
vote, to determine what proportion
of the people belong to any certain
faction or party. Hyde is making a
wild guess stabbing at what his
Bolshevik! mind Imagines and his
utterances prove him an undesirable
He should be listed with others to
be deported.
. It is just such radicals as Hyde
that harts the cause of organized
labor and gives It a black eye.
There are many of us who do not
understand just why our soldiers are
In (Russia, but no true American
would ever dream of calling our boys
Jn khaki fscabs," which would also
Infer that President Wilson, who
sent the boys across, is a "scab."
The man who applies such a repul
slve name to our president and the
boys who went forth "to fight for Old
Glory deserves to be manhandled In
'the roughest possible manner.' A

THE FLU
When your back is broken andv your eyes are blurred.
And your shin bones knock" and your tongne Is furred
And your tonsils squeak and your hair gets dry.
And you're doggone sure you're going to die;
'But you're "skeered" you won't and afraid you will .
Just drag to bed and have your chill, . t
And pray the Lord to see you through,
For you've got the Flu, boy; you've got the Flu.
When your toes curl up and your belt goes flat,
And you're twice as mean as a Thomas Cat,
And life Is a long and dismal course,
And your food all tastes like a hard-boiled hearse;
Then your lattace aches and your head's a-buzz, -,
And nothing is as It used to wuz,
You've got the Flu, boy; you've got the Flu.
' What is it like,, this Spanish Fu?
. Ask me, brother, I've been through,
It Is by misery out of despair, ....
It pulls your teeth and curls your hair;
And thins your blood and brays your bones,
And fills your craw with moans and groans; -
And sometimes, maybe,' you get well.
Some call it the Flu J call It Hell,
