An Old Fashioned Mother! From the autobiography of Andrew) Carnegie this very human reference to his old fashioned mother is found:| “Among the manifold blessings 1 have to be thankful for is that neither) nurse nor governess was my compan- ion in infancy. No wonder the chil- aren of the poor are distinguished| for the warmest affection and the closest adherence to family ties and are characterized by a filial regard far stronger than those who are mistak- enly called more fortunate in life.! They have passed the impressionable | years of childhood and youth in con- stant loving contact with father and mother, to each they are all in all no third person coming between. The child that has Nis father a teacher a companion and counselor, and whose| mother is to him a nurse, seamstress, | governess, teacher, companion, hero-| ine and saint all in one, has a heri-} tage to which the child of wealth re- mains a stranger. There comes a time, although the fond mother cannot see it, when a grown son has to put his arms nro his saint and, kissing tenderly, try to explain to her| that it would be much better were she to let him help her in some ways; that, being out in the world among | tor men and dealing with affairs, he some: times sees changes which it would be desirable to make; that the mode of Ufe delightful for young boys should be changed in some respects and the house made suitable for their friends to enter. Especially should the slav- ing mother live the life of ease here- after, reading ‘and visiting more and more and entertaining dear friends. “Ot course, the change was very hard upbn my mother, but she finally recognized the necessity for it, pro- bably realized for the first time that her eldest son was getting on. ‘Dear mother.’ I pleaded my arms still around her, ‘you have done everything for Tom and me and now let me do something for you; let us be part- ners and let us always think what is best for each other. The time has come for you to play the lady, and some of these days you are to ride in your carriage; meanwhile do get that girl in to help you. Tom and I would like this,’ The victory was won and my mother began to go out with us and visit her neighbors. She had not to learn self-possession nor goof manners—these were innate’ and as education, knowledge, rare good sense and kindliness, seldom was she to meet her equal. I wrote ‘never’ in- stead of ‘seldom’ and then struck it out. Nevertheless my private opin- ion is reserved.” Where's the Water Wagon From his home at Willow Grove, Pa., John Philip Sousa the great American march king, takes his pen in hand and add something to the gaiety of the world on something oth- er than music. His latest communi- cation is this: “An old friends has written asking if I can give him the whereabouts of the well known and beloved water wagon so much in evidence during the days preceding prohibition. He says its disappearance is as great & mystery as the identity surrounding the individual who struck Billy Pat- terson. “During the greater part of his life he would get on the water wagon and ride sometimes a month, sometimes two, three or six months, and on one occasion he liked the going so well he sat by the driver on that aqueous Vehicle from New Year's Day to the following Christmas! Since the eighteenth amendment Went into effect he sadly misses his periodic ride. He has been so busy sampling various kinds of home w, battling with booze, hobnobbing with hootch, sipping synthetic bran dies and gins, monkeying with moon- shine, guzzling swizzles and concoct: ing all sorts of cocktails out of al) sorts of things he feels run down and badly needs a ride on the water wagon. With tears on his pen he writes the water wagon was a great refuge and barrier against the demon Rum, for when that fiend nosed in, exhibit ing his alcoholic antics, he would give the old soak the merry ha! ha! by mounting the water wagon. He also writes that in his opinion the Jitney of prohibition might be safe riding for some, but he believes it's a rotten carrysll, for it often skids on slippery places, is a poor hill climber, and you can't depend on the clutch going down grade. Can you tell my friend where the water wagon is? JOHN PHILIP SOU: August Fields These are the fields of light, of tran. quil air, Of butterfifes and breezes warm and sweet 4 As honey; here the heavy bloomed buckwheat Riots with blossoms which the gold bees sharo; The corn js in full tassel, everywhere Faint shimmering sunlight and the green earth meet To mingle in caresses soft and fleet; The far flung hills a purpling mantle wear. Here have I found the place of my desire, Here life is lovely as some ancient lay, Here beauty and simplicity conspire To fill quiet hours with joy, here would I stay Finding from every care a glad re- lease As nature lends me something of her pence.

C. Gardner, president of thé aa- sociation, speaking of the St. Law: rence river project, say “The-stream has the steadisst flow of any great stream on earth. Fresh- ets and droughts do not affect it. “The mean flow, from ‘a recotd of 60 years, is 240,009 cuble feet per sec- ond. So large a figure is hard to sense. Think, if you can, of a gigan- tic drop of water 77 feet in diameter, and one of these drops every second, every tick of the clock, beginning— when?—and ending—when? The mind is staggered by the contemplation. ‘A river with a current of two and one-half miles per hour !s a good lively stredm. At this average cur- rent the St. Lawrence flow could be are Demcratic. These pensions make it possible for mothers who canfot work outside the home te keep their families together. In 19 Republican states women are pr hibited from working in mines, In 37 Republican states the hours of labor for women are effectively | mitted. Twelve Republican states prohibit women from working at night in certain industrits. No Demofratic state has such limitae tions. 4 It was the Republican party leaderc who were the pioneers in originating the National Child Labor Law, led by Senator Bev= eridge, en Indiana Republican. ‘The Supreme Court has declared the Child Labor Law unconstitu- tional, but the party in power bas set about to find some way to frame a law which will be conq stitutional. If this cannot be done an effort will be made to amend the constitution. One thing the Republican party is determined to do is to protect children in laden, Such a law safeguarding children ranks infinitely higher im the in industry than have Democratic states.
