The reds need allies, and apparent ly are playing Mr. Roosevelt for a euc-cor. A boiling series of personal and personnel situations exists within the commerce department, and there seems to be some question whether the lid can be kept on until election. ' A reorganization of two or more bur eaus tn that department is considered Inevitable. Certain senators are aroused be cause no shake-up has developed In the air division, and also because Mr. Roosevelt delayed appointment of the maritime commission, with trouble developing again on the Pacific wa terfront.

But came an Old Timer, Delightful and gay, Who said to me kindly, O play whlie you may, Enjoy all seasons. Or blooming or gray. I told the Old Timer, Endearing my day, Like him I'd be cheery, As he told the way, Said he, eyes a-tw!nkle, I toll all I can. Contriving and trying To build a full man, Immuring tho gloomy, The moody, the sad, In dear, happy sunlight Of dreams that are glad. He smiled with love's largess. Though wrinkled and old, And still I am warmer Through tale that he told, Yet learning how loving Enlivened his heart, Transfigured his features As Jove played a part; While now as I follow Where Old Timer led, I smile at the shadows That fall on my head. I f'ee from depression, Filled up by despair. To roam where the v!s'as Are pleasing and fair.

The fate ne had fled since birth and once escaped last night stopped the heart that kept his malformed body alive for six days of harried ex istence.

During the lftst stages of the fight to save the baby's life when the doc tors were administering adrenalin. caffein sodium benzoate and giving artificial respiration, the father stood by his child's crib. He whispered: "How Is he?" "He's officially alive," Dr. M. L. Klnny replied, "but you understand this baby has no chance to live. He Is going to die. And his death may oc cur any moment.' "I hope so,'' Tafel answered. That's what I've been praying for all day." When Dr. Kinney broke the news to Mrs. Tafel, ;he said fearlessly: "Its still hard to take. Perhaps It was for the best.
