I have \ not the paper b<1 ore mo. but the sen| timent ;s true and was beautifully expressed. And by the way, if I am not that is: thA nnem that the ! HilCiaiVV-ii mwv * | printer or the editor or somebody j | about the office balled up. I reckon! ; I i'hat expresses what I want to say. | Anyway the last lines were somewhat; j mixed, and I did not keep a copy. I : read the other day a prose poem on the ! same subject, which expresses the! 1 same idea a little differently, and I : wart to give that io you also. This article is headed, "Which Are You?"; ! When you read it I want you to answer! :r.e question tor yourself, and 1 would! ! be - lad to havp some of the answers! pent ;o me. And then 1 hud another J 'idea expressed in some quotation! which I made, thai the man who thinks ! stands alone, or words to that ef ect.1 You know, it is a queer thing to me, or j I think so. 1 am getting so that mem-| ory docs not seem to be as good as it' used to bo. I am afraid that I am get-! : ting to be a little like Mr. -Tiggs in ( ,j "Bringing Up Father.'' There are ; three things I can't remember, and I i have forgotten what the third is. I am ! afraid that it is e.idence that I am not as young as I once was. In fact, not i as young as?well, there is a fine opportunity in this day for young peoi pie, and sometimes I wish I had lived | away back yonder before the war, and i then sometimes 11.eel that I would just I like to be about sweet sixteen now, { and that if I was, I would turn things i . ; wrong side up. or upside down, and to I great things before I reached my four ! score and ten, or even before I reach! ed three score and ten. But I have | wandered away off from the subject, or ; at least, what T started out to do. ; Well here is the prose poem: o * WHICH ARE TOTJr i Uhere are two kinds of men in tnis world? The Man Who Has >~o Enemies is the man who is no good to himself ? or to his country. He agrees with everybody and everything, it you ask his opinion on a subject, he finds out ? ^ ? i nrWAAC U'ltV* i your view ui it anu iucu agi tco nnu you. He never does anything, so it is impossible to find fault with his action. He never says anything; consequently none have a chance to take exception to what he says. \ Ha ic a rin-nnfbin? and a sav-noth . ing. ! His idea of life is just to simply I breathe, eat and sleep until his ana! tomical machinery wears out, and then die. The Man Who Has Enemies is the man who does things ? who makes things happen; who brings things to pass; a big cog in the wheel of progress. He has plans and stri'V?es to put them into execution. If he meets opposition and obstacles, so much the better?the greater the obstacles, the greater become his efforts and determination to succeed. He thinks things and has the nerve I ! r\ A r? v* rv A J +/-v AVTWAfif* T"> 4 r? + <M1 OrVi 4" C? duu iiiaiiuuu-u iu CApicoo 1113 iiiuu^uio, not stopping to enquire who it does or does not hurt. i .. ?a. i Xow, gcod friends, one and all, | which are you?

It is the man or the woman who does things that is going to run up against some who will not like the things he does. 'As for me, i would ratner a man do something wrong sometimes, than do nothing at j all. I would hate to feel that I was just here breathing and eating and sleeping, and would simply stay around until the machinery ran its course. Of course I know that I have enemies, but I only pity them. If I did not, I would feel that I had done nothing at all. o Talking about eating and sleeping, did you read that advice of Thos. A.

You have heard of him no doubt. (Well, he is one oC the big men of this generation. I don't care much about so much sleep but I do like to eat.
