The Chinks are scrapping with the Japs, in China far away; they’re ; handing out big healthly slaps, with hope to maim and slay. All day and night the big guns roar, the bullets whine and wail; the gods of war still I call for more to follow war’s grim trail. It’s war and so the big guns boom a heavy cannonade, foretelling famine, deuth and doom, the regular prices paid by those who want the big parade, the glitter and the flash, the uniforms and golden braid, the lust for lands and cash. However, we don’t give much heed to this far dis tant fuss; for front page they may vainly plead, we do not care a cuss. Weil let them fight till crack of doom, as far as we may care; because our papers have no room for distant rocket’s glare. Those heathen picked the poorest time to get themselves in print; their chances are not worth a dime that never saw the mint. For we have something better here to which our interest sticks; this is a presidential year—it’s time for poli tics.—Brick Smith.
