The air is like wine; DER hilltop and
valley
The sun sends it's arrows all slantlingly
down;
| While summer defeated, now makes its
last rally
And goes to its death clad in russell and
brown,
Those last summer days, now vanished
So brief in their gladness and keen in
their JOY
They sleep with the roses, and rest with
the clover,
And fade like pleasure, without an
alloy;

The November "Smart Set"

There are thirty eight signed contribu
tons in the November "Smart Set," and
no magazine can offer greater variety OF
stories and poems; certainly Nd standard
is higher The novelet te which opens the
issue is called "The Surrender" and is
written by ]. H. Twells, Jr. 1t is pow
erful study of divorce, presented with
great insight and feeling. The scenes
many of which are dramatic in the ex-
IRENE, are laid in Paris, and the author
reveals an intimate knowledge of the
French capital.
A timely essay by the distin guished
dramatist, Clyde Fitch, entitled "The
Play and the Public" will be widely read
and discussed. Mr.. Fitch writes from
the inside, and everything he says on a
dramatic subject is spoken almost ex
cathedra.
In the long list of short stories it is
difficult to choose any particular one
which could be called "the BEST" for all
are superlatively good. Gouverneur
Morris's The Honeymoon" will certain
ly stick in the memory of numerous
readers. 1t is wonderfully Photographic
and strikingly original. In different
vein George Horizons. "The Office Hun
ters," an amusing picture of political and
social life in Washington. ''Marmony
Jeck," by Grace MACEDONIAN Cooke, is a
breezy Western tale with plenty of the
wholesome atmosphere of the plains.
Viola Roseboro's 1.-THE Actress that
Remembered" is story of player folk,
artistic and with an underlying note of
pathos. "A Rose in Ice' is the story of
manly newspaper reporter and society
girl. written in Herbert D. Wards direct
style. James Huneker's "The Eternal
Duel" occupies only a little space, but it
is cameo like as one of Maupassant's
masterpieces. In addition to these tales
there are others by such writers as Edna
Kenton, Charles Battell LOOMS, Virginia
Woodward Cloud, Robert E. MacAlarney
Charming Pollock, W. ]. Henderson and
Arthur Train, besides a story in French
by Hughes LIE Roux and an essay by
Kate Masterson.
The number is rich in excellent verse
Among the contributors are Edith N
Thomas, Theodosia Garrison, Edward
W. Barnard, Madeline Bridges, John
Vance Cheney, Richard Burton, P. Nc
Arthur and Madison Cawein.

INDIANA TOWNS
STREETS OF PEARL
Waste Mussel Shells from Button
Factory Are Utilized to
Good Advantage.

Leavenworth, Ind, Dec. 8.-While
other towns and cities are struggling to
halt greedy street contractors and are
content with such commonplace paving
as asphalt, block and brick, Leaven-
worth contentedly witnesses the work
OF a local company that is paving her
streets with pearl. 49, -. 49,.
history. It became river landing on
the Ohio early in the last century. The
landing was at the foot of the Knobs,
a range of high hills that follow the
Ohio from point near New Albany
The place became the center of river
traffic for Crawford county. Soon af-
ter the landing was established a store
was opened there, and around that
store has grown town Of thousand
inhabitants.
The county seat was established and
remained in Leavenworth until eight
years ago, when it was moved to Eng
lish, fourteen miles inland.
The old courthouse is now pearl
button factory, as the manufacture Of
worth 8 chief industry. The fresh-wa-
tier mussel has it's home in the beds Of
inland rivers and lives in a she'll that
opens and closes like book. During
certain seasons the shells lie open, and
it is then that the mussel-fshers bring
them: in by the ton. The fishermen go
out in boats and with brazil made Of
wire drag the river. AS soon as the
wire touches the mussel it closes the
shell over it and is brought to the sur
face and deposited in shell boats. .
The streets Of Leavenworth are paved
with mussel shells. After the drills at
the button factory have cut disks from
the shells, the remnants are thrown in
a pile in front of the factory. The
street commissioner of Leavenworth
scatters the shells over the highways
and they make an ideal pavement. The
hoofs of the horses quickly grind the
shells to powder. Then the rains turn
the dust into a solid mass.
