Ye Smudge Pot
By Arthur Perry
A week ago, the Justices of the
state supreme court, according to
reports In the press, announced
that If they were properly ap
proached, they would recommend
that Moasrs, Wlllos and Kelley,
doomed to die at the end of a
rope, be Instead retained for llfo
within stnto prison walls. These
tidings were conveyed to the Gov
ernor, who telephoned the Justices.
' or one of them, and was Informed
that tills was correct. The Gover
nor then granted a reprieve of one
week, which will expire Thursday
at 12 M. o'clock. Tho Jurists
hailed before the executive, neatly
sidestepped, with the allegation
that they "were misquoted." It
took thorn almost a week to dis
cover tho misquoting. All of this
puts tho Governor In a hole, and
. gives citizens a chunce to specu
late on the "political significance,"
If any, of the proposed hangings.

Considerable complaint Is being
filed against the weather, which

been asked to call It up on the

now a fine mess, and by tnklng

straighten It out by Krlduy noon.
If no adverso conditions ure en

Presldent Campbell was accom
panied by another professor who
brought his young son, "Ilald-wln,"
to see the ball game.
Baldwin was as full of slangy
monosyllables sb his father was of
classical polysyllables. During the
game Baldwin frequently used the
words "Gosh, keen, dumb and
simp," while his parent's vocabu
lary may be gleaned from tbe fol
lowing dialogue:
President Campbell: This Is the
first baseball game I have attended
for many years. I like baseball,
particularly the throwing.
Professor B.: Yes, the throwing
Is Interesting such speed and ac
curacy. The English are
greatly amazed by the ease with
which the American ball player
gathers In a ball of high trajectory.
P. C: Yes, It shows a wonder

I question the accuracy1 of that de
cision at first. Of course I am glad
to see our boys win but

P. C: Perhaps you are right.
What are the boys chewing gum,

P. 11.: - Possibly but the visible

P. C: la It possible! That
catcher's mask is fairly awollen

P. B.: An cxamplo of adolescent
imitation. You see, the coach
chews tobacco it la a professional
habit and of course in some cir
cles H la an evidence of robust
masculinity. Some boys chew to
bacco, others grow whlskors. 1
shudder at tbe thought of combin

P. C: It presents another angle
of the perpetual problem. That

Only four or five hundred people

I view with, admiration the
man who does things well,
whatever his vocation It's
splendid to excel. The tailor
finds much pleasure In his ab
sorbing game, as, with his tape
line measure he walks around
my frame; I am not an Apollo,
I'm bulging here and there, and
here and there I'm hollow, and
have no beef to Bpare. My
limbs have little beauty, my
waist is like a hill: I'd look
like art agouti but for tho
tailor's skill. But he surveys
my outline, resolved to make
me trim: the shriveled line, the
stout line are all the same to
him. And when the suit Is
finished, and I triumphant go.
my bulges are diminished, my
hollows do not show. I look
as i-mooth" as thunder, a rah
rah lad, In sooth, and friends
and neighbors wonder how I
preserve my youth. With glad
enthusiasm I pay the tailor's
bill, and, In a fervid spasm, 1
praise his wondrous skill. How
fine the skilled mechanic who
sizes up my car. when it Is In
a panic." with all Its works
ajar. A lot of workmen tinker
around . my ailing wain, and
deeper yet they sink her in
grief. And cause me pain. They
know not what's the matter,
they have but little skill, they
spend the time In chatter nnd
charge like old Sam Hill. Ah,
then It ls a blessing to f'nd
the man who knows: who heals
the breaks distressing, so that
the motor goes. The world Is
Jammed with tollers who botch
all that they do, and they're
the chronic spoilers of Joy and
comfort, too. And so it is a
pleasure to meet the man of
skill: he is a peach, a treasure,
a beacon on the hill.
London was amazed when Henry
Ford made a speech of only 29
words. Governor Smith's daughter
would call that extreme verbosity.
Her speech, when, her father ran
for governor last time, was 21
words shorter than Ford's London
speech. "I hope you will all vote
for father," was the Bpeech. and
they all did, apparently.
Commander Byrd's air voyage to
the South Pole will be useful, as
well as romantic. He will probably
send back hia planes to protect
tht m from crumpling, crushing ice,
while be spends months In Antarc
tic exploration. Gentlemen whose
business Is making money after
others tell where it can be found,
expect many things from this Byrd
adventure. ,
There Is copper In the Antarctic
regions, and gold probably. Ice
cold old 'fields near the South
Pole would draw crowds as did the
hot African fields.
For gold, men will go anywhere,
run any risk.
Commander Byrd will also hunt
the new retreat of the Antarctic
fur bearing seal, which has retired
from its old haunts, and bring back
information about whales, very nu
merous near the South Pole.
Important scientific news is
hoped for from the expedition, in
cluding Important data about the
tides In the Antarctic ocean. But
reliable information about the new
gold fields ls what the crowd hopes
for.
