This is another way of saying that only those people who lift their voices in song know the joy of liviug. The wise man's words were echoed recently in Variety, popu lar news weekly of the stage. It called attention to the fact that quartets and choral societies were becoming popular again. And a radio speaker, remarking some days ago on the story in Va riety. told his audience that here was the most significant fact ob served in connection with the de pression and recovery from the financial chaos into which the United States was plunged nearly six years ago. “ When America begins to sing there is no stopping it,’ ’ he said. Into that one sentence the voice on the radio packed more truth than has been uttered by all the economists and statesmen since the United States began the long pull back to recovery. The pioneers whipped their hardships with song; and the American Ex peditionary* Force sang its way across France and up through Luxemburg and into Germany. LUMBER TARIFF With the signing of the new trade treaty which permits Ca nadian mills to dump lumber into the American market President Roosevelt appears to have stirred up a hornet’s nest. And witu the storm raging in the Pacific north west genial “ Jim” Farley, post master-general and custodian of our mails, is scheduled to speak in Portland Saturday. What the »boss of the democratic party hears while in Oregon will no doubt make his ears burn, and in deed^ it will make his hair curl. No satisfactory excuse has been advanced for the signing of the new trade treaty. The pact does not make reason, especially in the Bonneville Dam Area, where hundreds upon hundreds of lum ber workers have been employed upon relief work. It is not im probable that the President feels it is the part of wisdom to keep one section of the country upon dole while aiding another— and n ')•'* thickly populated section— to enjoy increased prosperity. Lurrl ^rmen are making much • >« and business throughout the northwest is concerned t;> *he leveling of tariff bar- riers, but the lumber industry survived an era of duty-free In tu ber prior to the Roosevelt aduiin- istatiou and mills will continue to operate. Greatest suffers will be mill employees, for the duty is being lifted at a time when labor is beginning to earn a decent wage again. And it is from labor, ra ther than from mill owners and agriculture, that the President may encounter the strongest op position. Labor can use the boy cott effectively if it choose« to act. and with public opinion solidly behind it labor may be ex pected to throw down the gaunt let. T IM E YOU OLD GIPSY MAN bv RALPH HODGSON Time, you old gipsy man. W ill you not stay. Put up your caravan Just for one day? All things I'll give you Will you be m.v guest. Bells for your jennet Of silver the best. Goldsmiths shall beat you A great golden ring. Peacocks shall bow to you Little boys sing. Oh. and sweet girls will Festoon you with May Time, you old gipsy. Why hasten away? Last week in Babylon, Last week in Rome. Morning in the crush Under Paul’s dome; Under Paul's dial You tighten your rein— Only a moment. And off once again; Off to some city Now blind in the womb. Off to another Ere that’s in the tomb. Time, you old gipsy man. W ill you not stay. Put up your caravan Just for a day? WHY W 0 R R Y Y I wonder why folk worry. There are only two reasons for worry. Either you are successful, or you are not successful. If you are successful, there is no reason for worry. If you are not successful, there are only two reasons for worry. Your health is either good, or you are sick. If your health is good, there is no reason for worry. If you are sick, there are only two reasons for worry. You are either going to get well, or you are going to die. If you are going to get well, there is no reason for worry. If you are going to die, there are only two reasons for worry. You are either going to heaven, or you are not going to heaven. And if you are going to heaven, there is no reason for worry. If you are going to hell, you wul be so busy shaking hands with your old friends, % that you won’t have time to worry. SO W H Y WORRY?
