ROBABLY no other modern nation could furnish a scene like that at Genoa when, on the hills overlooking the Mediter. ranean, around the newly unveiled monument to the patriot Garibaldi, fifty thousand Italians applauded with leaping hearts their living national poet. Fifty surviving veterans of Garibaldi’s famous expedition were present. The tender reverence and enthusiasm of the crowd almost overwhelmed these red-shirted, scarred old men, But the poet the glorified figure of the occasion, Real national poets are rare these days. Who else has one? Not this country, not England, nor France, nor Germany, Not a poet of | the nation, in the sense that Italy acclaims d’Annunzio. Even though | the hes to call him home from Paris he is still superbly hers. More than any other country of to-day Italy mingles its poetry with its polities, Each inspires and animates the other. If Italy goes to war it will be with patriotic stanzas on every lip. Among other peoples, patriotism is only half articulate. In Italy it needs and finds its poet. —— ‘The trial tires the Colonel. off the witness stand. He has to spend so much time SIGNS OF A SPINE. OLITE and extended correspondence with the Public Service Commission was for long the Interborough’s vnfailing resource when it felt like evading orders, It must be shocked to find the old game no longer goes. After it was notified last March that it must remove al! woos @are from the subway before Dec. 1 next, the Interborough began its letter writing tactics by objecting that unless it could shift the dis- “earded wooden cars to the elevated (at the city’s expense) it could mot promise to take them out of the subway. The Public Service Commission now replies that every wooden ear must be out of the subway by Dec, 1, 1915; that what is or is not one with them afterward in nowise affects the order, and that no more ife or bute will be considered. The people of this city may congratulate themselves. Thanks to publicity and criticism, the Public Service Commission has developed signs of a spine. The Interborough has,just one fact to grasp. It has less than seven months in which to do away with the barbarous menace of wooden cars in a supposedly fireproof subway, —_—_~-4¢e2—__ ARBOR DAY. “Give fools their gold and knaves their power; Let fortune's bubbles rise and fall; Who sows a field, or trains a flower, Or plants a tree, is more than all.” Hits From Sharp Wits. — A neutral is known by the company for others, we are too apt to for he doesn't keep.—Boston Transcript. i for us,—Mem- | oe 1 Where there's a will there's a way, often, of breaking it Columbia State.
