He pei-snaded him to run for governor of New Jersey and was his strongest advocate in his first presidential rexc. - . ; .-. ; ' , Then something - happened. The1 details of - this "Something" have never been, 'divulged, but. the love in Coloney Ilarvev's bosoiiK Was turned to .bitte gall and the affection to W'oi'mwood ash transmuted., "Now there is T - . , ' i , , ' i . . t - i 1 no political enemy so rutuiess, so pittuess, sp maneiousiy denuiieiatoiy as President Wilson's former protagonist and favorite. ;. . ; ; - -.- - ';:';.' :-,-''-''- - : ;And Colonel :Harvey. is. elewr.-devilishly clever His pen. is sharp as the adder's fang, his dictioli both trenchant and melodious, his sarcasm suncr ring, Jus jrbny xlelightfulj But through it all runs that,, vein; of persoiial vindictivcness, whicli'nuikes tBe' foolish rage," the judi cious smile, and the discerning remain cold and mire- The Achilles heel in dhe Colonel's annor is his 'insin cerity. .Take the League of Nations, for example. . Before the covenant was amended, Harper's "Weekly was not opposed to .the league principle, mercy no! but it was opposed to any .international arrangement which violated the Monroe, Doctrine, whichfmade it possible for a great world power like the United States to have no more vpting power tiian the smaller nations. . , .- .

In other words the redciibtabTo eolonel is against' the league if it restricts'Americn control, he is against the league if American control is not restricted. iOnly " love to hatred turned" could manoeuver a man as clever as tlie eblonel- into a position so ridiculous and indefensible.-: AMERICA HAS WHIP HAND. AS a matter of actual fact, "America can ) get along more cotnfortbly without a League of Nations and a peace of justice and equity, than' can Italy," France or Great Britain. Her mission to Paris was not one of self interest" but one. of disinterested devotion, to theawelfare of humanity and the world; If it conies to a, shew down, the United States holds the whip hand. At the nioinent it looks dark, but a shrewd gambler with a knowledge' of the true situation would not endanger his reputation by placing ins oets on a iriumpn ior i.merica mine ena.v COMMUNICATION. Havoc of the Bird Gun To the Editor:, Amdng . nature's choicest blessings at this season of the yeaare the beauty- and fra grance of ho fruit blossoms, and the sweet melody of the song birds of the Medford valley. . But strange to sa,y there are many who do not seem to , appreciato thi.s rich heritage of the springtime.- . On our way home the other even ings from the. business center, of. our. ity, we passed two boys,, each yilth a small gun in his :hani; ana upon overhearing seme of the conversation with .a group of .other boys, pledging them to secrecy, of a certain sort, im mediately we became suspTcipus of the purpose of the guns In the Hands of.thpse two boys. .' ; About an hour later, suspicion be came fact' when we sa)v .these two lads coming thru an alley with their guns oyer .their shoulder, and dan gling from the hand of one lad were three lifeless little birds not spar-. rows, but house finches. or red ,polls, birds that are amoiig the sweetest warblers that trill their rkh delight ful, melody, to us the ; livelong day who build their nests and .rear their little ones in the old: honeysuckle bower, or among the roses and vines that elamber over the trejllses S3 close, to:, the house. ; Itiseemo they almost, ask for our protection. ' ' upon inquiry we learned the boys had been requested three. times by., man in the neighborhood not to shoot at the birds, but despite the requests, the boys slyly crept near the bushes and brought down a beau tiful, malo bird while In the glory o( his song, and carried -hint dangling along with the other two they had killed, his beautiful splashes iof crim son on bead and breast protesting in mute appeal against such bird tragedies.- ' ' ' -..'-' ''.I .. ;'-. : Questioning the boys as to their knowledge of the laws for the protec tion of the song birds and the fines Imposed for killing them, they hung their heads, and said they sold them to a man in town who bought them to eat. ; , ' .SJlscreiliting this story that any man in Medford, would he guilty of encouraging the boys: to break the law, we .thought it more likely they wero . thus - trying lto . shlehl - them selves. ; All. we. could do at the time was to secure the names of the two boys. ! ) 'i,We coujd npt help .noticing . tfie entire , absence, of Me song birds in our vicinity that evening. Not a bird note anywhere. Even the robin who built her, nest pn: the ledge tinder the. cornice of. the, house, .and who regu larly every evening sang his- clear, strong, but tender notes at twilight from, tbertpp of,the;neaest telephone pole, was silent. t .
