Work and You Work Alone.
New York Sun.
Strike ?nd the world strikes with
you. work and you work alone; our
souls are ubluze with a Bolshevik
craze, the wildest that ever was
known. Groan and thre'll be a cho- v
rus. smile and you make no hit; tor
we've grown long hair and we . i
preach despair, and show you a dally 1%
tit. Spend and the wing will cheer
you, save and you have no friend;
for we throw our bucks to birds and
ducks, and borrow from nil who'll
lend. Knock and you'll be a winner,
boost and you'll be a frost; for the
old sane ways ?>f the pre-war days
are now front the program lost.
Strike and the world strikes with
you. work and you work alone; for
we'd rather yell and raise blue hell
than strive for an honest bone. Hunt
and you are it leader, toll and you
are a nut; 'twas a hitter day when
we pulled away front the old time
work-day rut. Walt and there'll bo
a blowup, watch and you'll see a
slump, and the fads ami crimes of
tltcst* crazy times will go to the nation's
dump.
The ferry across Catawba river between
Kurt I ..awn anil Lancaster has
been reopened fur trattle after IS
months of suspended operation. It is
at the site of the l?ancuster and Chester
hriilKo. The Hat, which is controlled
by means of a wire cable, has
a capacity of six automobiles at one
time. The r?.?td is very nooil on the
Lancaster side of the river, but not
sm itood on the Chester side, especially
in wet weather. In fact, when
the weather is wet. automobiles will
do well not to fc.icet their chains.
