Good bye, proud world, I'm go-

A segret qook in a pleasant land,

Where arches green, the live*

Echo the blackbird's roundela'y,
And vulgar feet have never trod,
A spot that is sacred to thought

Railway mail clerks have been shown Ijy Postmaster General
Burleson that he is indifferent to their task of working all kinds
of iTregular hours, since in the face of the increased cost of living
be has cut down their pay. This is a shameful act, and it is to be
hoped that congress will over-rule Mr. Burleson. Every big org-

day. The birds were in full
tune. Everybody felt like loan'

New York, Jan. 31.—George
W Perkins and Everett Colby to-
day formally requested William
R. Willcox, chairman of the Re-
publican national committee, to
call a meeting of tho committee
"to disenss fully and openly the
grave and important questions
that confront our country to-
day."
"We are unwilling to believe,"
the communication stated "that
the national committee will be
short-sighted and reactionary if
called together for a free and
o|>en conference on the affairs of
the country. If the national
committee, after such a confer-
ence, should decide that the Re
publican party shall remain re-
actionary, this ahould be known
at once so that other alignments
can be immediately made and
no time should be lost in prepar-
ing for the tight of 1920."
