THE CORDELE DISPATCH
WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
By C. ¥. Hinesley
When o fellow’s nights are sleepless,
When his appetite is gone
When his mind is all be-cleuded
When 1110_\\'01‘1<l seemg deadly
wrong.
Wien his eyes are moisture-laden
When he goes alone to pine
When his heart throbs are heavy
When the sun doth cease to shine
0! the question is casy answered
For his mind is sueh a whirl
Though the sun and stars he hidden
It was just that little girl.
She has failed to pay attention
And that smile became a frown
So his fondest hopes have faded
And his castles tumbled dowin
Yesterday his dreams were sweeter
Than they had ever been hetore
But today is life worth living?
Can he travel any more!?
All alone he sits and murnurs
Thinking of the days gone by
Tor to ]li:l'll there comes a longing
That the world cannot supply.
My dear fellow will you listen?
This message to you I bring
When the clouds seem the darkest
Tnstead of pining, sing.
This world is a wide world
But wider still the sea
For there are fisheg still uncenquered
And there remaineth one for thee.
One of the -greatest penalties that
can bhe imposed on a Hindu is that of

ostracism. No man may eat with

permit him in their homes.

DAWES DARES
Says the Philadelphia Record:
Charles G Dawes did not take him
self out of the list of possibilities for
the Harding cabinet by his testimony
before the Congressional Committee
investigating the war. He did that
when he accepted a commission from
President Wilson and went to France
as chief of the suppiy department
and served his country.
If he had stayed at home and de
nounced “Wilsonism” his chance of
becoming Secretary of the Treasury
would have Leen good. He is a Re
publican, he is a banker; he has been
controller of the Currency. He has
been more talked of for Secretary
of the Treasury than any other man.
But Mr. Harding would not appoint.
and if he were willing to, the Sena
torial oligarchy would not allow him
to appoint any man who helped his
country win the war.
The committee caught a tartar
when it put him on the stand. There
is a good deal in his testimony he

sides the profanity which figures
largely in some of the reports of the
hearing, For example, he was asked
about excessive prices paia for equip
ment and material and he answered:
“Sure we paid. W did'nt dicker,
Why. man alive, we had to win the
war, It was a man's job. We weuld
have paid horse prices for sheep if
the sheep could have pulled artillery
to the front.”
“Money was not wasted, but it
meant more cconomy, not only in hu
man life, but in money, to shorten
the war than to save a few millions
on contracts during the discussions
over which the Germans would have
got into Faris. The army had to have
an enormous amount of things and
have them at once, and the supply
depairtment got them. They came
high. But it is more economical to
pay $5OO for a taxigab to catch an
