It was the dash from town to town or from countryside to countryside In which we who followed his car in a huge reeling motor bus bad to participate. On some days he was scheduled for six afternoon speeches In towns fifty or more miles apart After breakfast we, of his following, would clamber Into the vast bus, take our seats, get a firm hold on a strup, set our teeth, and dash forth. Ahead of us was the candidate, listening to advisors who were giving him tips us to what to talk about to the next audience, and paying scant attention to them. Ahead of him were other retainers, talking over suggestions and plans to lay before him, and ahead of them were either two uniformed motorcycle policemen or a flivver containing state policemen. In ten minutes after the start we were making fifty miles an hour. The sirens on the police cars or cycles shrieked like, fire trucks racing through a city, the limousines rocked and swayed, and the motor bus leaped from depression to depression on the road like a giant Jack rabbit. Rural motorists, truck drivers, farmers, appalled at the din, drew op beside the road and gazed at us with paling faces as we sped by them. Children raced beside the way shrieking madly. Men and women darted from farm houses and gaped over the fences at us. But on we rushed, unheeding. Presently there was a signal from the sirens ahead, the brakes ground all along the array of cars, and we came to a stop In front of a school house or a town ball. Out hopped the candidate, Into the building be rushed, made a speech, hands, paused to shake then we all went Into our equipages and forth we embarked o'er the hard high road. On one occasion we found the audience consisted of children who would have to wait for another ten years before they attained voting age. The candidate was a little tak en aback, but be made a short speech, asked them to tell their parents about It, and away we raced again. We learned afterward that by some mistake we had got Into the wrong hall, but there was no time to fuss about that Soon we began to glimpse church spires and the tops of skyscrapers over the trees and low hills, and knew that a city was near. I sat back with a sigh of gratitude. Here at least the pace must slow. Not even a political caravan could make Its way through city streets at sixty miles an hour. I lit a cigar and prepared to take a few minutes of ease. They were never taken. Outside the city we slowed down, but only to exchange our rural guard for a covey of city mounted policemen, and these gentlemen had motor cycles, not horses. Before I could catch a fresh breatn, they set their sirens going continuously, and in their wake we rocked and roared along, around corners, over streets under repair and down narrow lanes, never once slackening our gait. If we came closer to a truck or a street car than the drivers had reckoned on, we merely shifted over a few feet while two wheels hiped up on the sidewalk, scattering startled pedestrnlns left and right, and proceeded on our way. How we ever got through, and how a hundred people or bo ever had the agility to escape us, Is something that will forever remain a secret to me. But we did it, and presently were flowing forth from the bus and swarming Into a hotel. But not to rest Three minutes after our arrival the candidate was making a speech and shaking hands. Five minutes later he was telling us what would be his plans for the afternoon. In another one minute we were forth and to the harvest field again. Night brought no respite. There were two, and sometimes three speeches, frantic battles to get into the balls and out again, and often blenniura." dashes through the night to some A mass of assorted bills fills the suburban hall which the local boys INFORMATION had forgotten for the nonce, but Inlegislative hopper.

With convictions such as these, no wonder Mrs. Wilson feels that poetry Is the Inalienable right of every child. From knowledge born of her own experience she declares there Is spiritual kinship between poet and youngster. "Both are Imaginative, curious, full of wonder and Idealism. Both love words for their own sake.' When It conies to selecting poetry for children much of the choice should be left to the child. life 1 Crush and stir 3 BAYER Aspirin Tablets in H glass of water. 2 throw your Gargle Thoroughly head way back, allowing a little to trickle down your throat.
