HARRISBURG STAR-IN DEPENDENT, FRIDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 26, 1915.
FORESHADOWS COURSE OF
SOCIALISTS AFTER THE WAR
Berlin Feb. 25, Via London, Feb.
26, 1.49 A. M. —A speech which
Reichsberger Heine delivered at Stutt
gart several days ago is attracting
much attention as foreshadowing the
probable course of the development of
the Socialist party after the war. Herr
Heine said:
"The present war shows the neces
sity to make discrimination in military
matters between what is necessary for
the national defense and what they
hitherto have opposed as militarism.
The fatherland must be defended and
the Socialists must vote money for mak
ing all technical preparations therefor.
The Socialists undermine their own in
fluence by saying ' No' to any and all
military measures.
"The Socialists must adopt a policy
for increasing their own influence over
the government. Thev must avoid all
revolutionary talk and seek the use of
the existing state of affairs to improve
the welfare of the working classes."
Herr Heine ndiculeu, amid thvs
laughter of his hearers, the policy of
the Socialist leaders in studiously
avoiding appearing at the courts of the
German rulers lest such action be con
strued as recognition of the monarch
ical institutions.
"This," added Herr Heine, "seems
laughable now when princes and thoir
sons are manfully confronting the ene
my, buying for the country that which
we refuse them —the salvation that iB
due to every decent man."
The "Vorwaerts," though it repre
sents the radical wing of the party,
admits that Herr Heine expressed the
views of a section of the party loaders.
The newspaper summarizes the speech
without protest against a single utter
ance, but indicates that a discussion of
it must be postponed until after the
war.
MIST AND RAIN HiNDER
OPERATIONS OFTHEALLIES
Tendon, Fob. 26. 2.25 P. M. —The
Official Information Bureau gave out to
day another of the semi-weeklv com
munications from the frcnt. It follows;
"The period since the last communi
que has beeu marked by a thick m.st
and rain which culminated on the 24th
in a heavw snow storm. Operations
consequently have been hindered. In
spite of bacl weather, however, our air
craft carried out their duties. Co-oper
ation between aviators and the artil
lery has been particularly close.
''Near Ypres intermittent fighting
continued along the canal without any
change in the relative positions of the
opposing forces. Many gallant acts
have been performed during the recent,
fighting in this neighborhood.
"Our machine guns handled par
ticularly well cne occasion when they
rame into action in the open and in
flicted a considerable loss on the enemy.
"Along the remainder of our frout
tho enemy's artillery fire at times has
been somewhat heavy. No infantry
attacks by either side have o.x-urred.''

Frank Jewell Raymond
Gives Last of His
Series of Business
Talks in City
ORDER TAKERS
ARE VALUABLE
Speaker Tells Salesmen to OiTe Pa
trons Only What They Need. Since
Day of Orab Is Past, He Says—
'' Question Box" Answers
The various degrees of making a
sale were taken up in regular order
last night by Frank Jewoll Raymond in
his final talk in the series on "Making
Good in 'Business." It was the best
talk of the series and another capacity
audience crowded the Technical High
school auditorium.
The speaker dissected the sales per
son in his first speech, the customer in
the second. Ilis subject last night was
"Making the Sale.'' Jle defined the
various stops, ably illustrating his
■points with little anecdotes as he pro
gressed. Tho steps outlined were, first
gaining attention, second, holding inter
est; third, securing confidence, and
last olosing the sale. The talk was in
telligible because it was preceded by
talks on the contracting parties, the
salesman and the customer.
Mr. Raymond divided the clerks into
three sub-divisions, order-makers, order
takers ami order-shakers, the second
class, of course, including the valuable
persons who makes tho sales, while the
order-takers perform the functions-'of a
slot machine and the order-shakers ruin
future sales bv bad treatment of pos
sible purchasers.
He cautioned the salesmen to sell
what patrons really need, saying the
day of grab is past and that the day
of build and hold is here.
An hour was consumed after the lec
ture in the answering of questions pre
sented to the '"question box." Every
body was given an opportunity to have
his difficulties solved by presenting
questions, and the answers given by
the business evangelist invariably
helped his hearers.

CLASSIC WAR POEMS
Selected by J. Howard Wert
No. 13. TH E FALL OF POLAND, OR
BATTLE OF WARSAW
BY THOMAS CAMPBELL
In connection with 8 previous poem of this series some fact# were given
in regard to the unhappy fate of Poland. Perhaps the most vivid description
of the final battle which sealed the nation's fate is found in Campbell's "Pleas
ures of Hope." The leading stanzas are hore presented.
Our new land of freedom felt a special interest in this contest because the
Polish leader was the gallant Thaddeus Kosciusko who had fought so valitantly
for us in our Revolutionary struggle in which he rose to the rank of general.
Of noble family, born in 1756, Kosciusko, after the success of our struggling
colonies, return«d to his native land and signalized himself at the head of one
of her armies in 1792 and 1793; and when the Poles rose up against their
oppressors in 1794, he was made their generalissimo, and dictator. He was
wounded and taken prisoner by the Russians at the fatal battle of Maciovice,
October 1, 1794, and the complete downfall of his country soon followed. Ho
closed his unstained and noble life in Switzerland in 1817.
The very fields over which the Poles and Russians fought 120 years ago, for
months, have been deeply dyed with the blood of tens of thousands of the
Russian and German armies locked in a death struggle for the possession of
Warsaw.
O sacred Truth! thy triumph ceased awhite,
And Hope, thy sister, ceased with thee to smile,
When leagued oppression poured to northern wars
Her whiskered pandoors, and her fierce hussars,
Waved her dead standard to the breeze of morn,
Pealed her loud drum, and twanged her trumpet hornl
Tumultuous horror brooded o'er her van,
Presaging wrath to Poland and to man.
Warsaw's last champion from her height surveyed,
Wide o'er the fields, a waste of ruin laid;
O Heaven! he cried, my bleeding country save!
Is there no hand on high to shield the brave?
Yet, though destruction sweep these lovely plains,
Rise, fellow-men! our country yet remains!
By that dread name, we wave the sword on high,
And swear for her to live, with her to die!
He said, and on the rampart heights arrayed
His trusty warriors—few, but undismayed;
Firm-paced and slow, a horrid front they form,
Still as the breeze, but dreadful as tho storm;
Low murmuring sounds along their banners fly.
Revenge, or death, —the watch-word and reply;
Then peal'd the notes, omnipotent to charm,
And the loud tocsin toll'd their last alarm!—
L
In vain, alas! in vain, ye gallant few!
From rank to rank your vollev'd thunder flew:—
O! bloodiest picture in the book of time,
Sarmatia fell, unwept, without a crime;
Found not a generous friend, a pitying toe,
Strength in her arms, nor mercy in her wo!
Dropp'd from her nerveless grasp the shatter'd spear,
Closed her bright eye, and curb'd her high career; —
Hope for a season bade the world farewell,
And freedom shriek'd—as Kosciusko fell!
The sun went down, nor ceased the carnage there,
Tumultuous murder shook the midnight sir!
On F'rague's proud arch the fires of ruin glow.
His blood-dyed waters murmuring far lielow;
The storm prevails, the rampart yields away.
Bursts the wild cry of horror and dismay!
Hark! as the smoldering piles with thunder fall,
A thousand shrieks for hopeless mercy call:
Karth shook—red meteors flashed along the skv,
And conscious nature shuddered at the cry.
O! righteous Heaven! ere freedom found a grave.
Why slept the sword, omnipotent to save?
Where was thine arm, O \jengcance! where thy rod
That smote the foes of Zion and of God!
That crush'd proud Amnion, when his iron car
Was yoked in wrath, and thunder'd from afar?
Where was the storm that slumber'd till the host
Of blood-stain'd Pharaoh left their trembling coast,
Then bade the deep in wild commotion flow,
And heaved an ocean on their march below?
Departed spirits of the mighty dead! ,
Ye that at Marathon and Leuctra bled!
Friends of the world! restore your swords to man.
Fight in his sncred cause, and lead the van!
Yet for Sarmatia's tears of blood atone.
And make her arm puissant as your own!
O! once again to freedom's cause return
The patriot Tell—the Bruce of Bannockburn!
Senatorial trio is in charge of all big
bills and all of the Governor's appoint
ments.
