Congressman George A. Castor OF
Pennsylvania. who was recently elect

coming of new phrase IN politics,
which is, "I've got to have it, says the
Washington correspondent of the ST.

not discouraged.

Town TALK
By The Man About Town.

I am told that Governor Carter has
laid down the doctrine that the execu-
tive should exercise a sort of adminis-
trative control over Il judiciary, and
so l am beginning to wonder if the
justices of the Supreme court will not
find themselves out of job when their
terms expire because they sustained
the county act after the governor had
declared it unconstitutional If stories
which appear to be eXcellently vouched
for are true, the governor recently I'M
dertook to tell Circuit Judge Robinson
how a court should be conducted. The
judge is candidate for reappointment
and has the endorsement of the Bar
Association. But Carter does not like
Robinson and he told the Judge very
plainly what he thought of his judicial
conduct. l did not believe, when 1
was first told about it, that the gov
ernor, who is not lawyer had actual
ly criticised Robinson for rulings made
from the bench, because the notion that
the judiciary is Independent of the eX-
ecutive department of American gov
eminent is so VIGOROUSLY fundamental
that it seemed impossible that an Ame-
rican executive would do such a thing.
But there are exceptions to all rules,
and as an American executive Carter
seems to be an exception to most of
them. SO let us rejoice in feeling that
if he serves no other purpose, he is
splendidly filling the position of the
Exception That Proves the Rule.

I have been credibly informed that a
new apparatus which will cause people
to get bigger appetites will shortly be
introduced to the islands. It is a dish
washing machine. The promoter was
stating the other day that one reason
the people here did not eat more was
because they soiled too many dishes,
but when the machine arrives he ex-
claimed everybody can eat double the
quantity for the dishes can be washed

Another thing which the governor
is reported among the legal fraternity
to have told Judge Robinson is that he
was sustained by the Supreme Court
too often. The judge has been re-
versed in his decisions less than any
other circuit judge here since anneXa-
ton at least. This, according to Gov
ernor Garter, shows lack of backbone.
1t shows that Robinson tries to decide
as he thinks the Supreme Court will
decide. 1 think there is a twist in the
governors logic somewhere, or else he
has assumed that the Supreme court is
usually likely to decide wrongly. 1t
would seem that a circuit judge could
not do better than decide as he thinks
the Supreme Court will decide, espe-
cially when that Supreme Court has
the honor of having been sele cted by
Governor Carter.

SWIMMING POOLS THAT COST .sf NOTHING. .

The brook or running stream of na- turai outdoor water gives a variety of chances for the man who wishes to live his life alright. The brook can be converted, with being diverted, into a swimming pool for boys by building a dam at the point where the banks do a little extra shelving and tend to form a natural basin. The bottom should be spaided out and made more of a reservoir in It's capacity and shape The dam itself can be made by fam fly of boys at the cost of the lumber and nails involved. The enbanl1ments are sodded. The sides of the spilway are made of wooden posts driven into the ground and boarded up. This makes a boxed-up affair, or rather two boxes, one on each side of the stream. These boxes are filled with sand, rocks and sods to make a solid cubic of re- sistance. The embankments run across the valley or depression of the brook
 hollow to the higher ground. By means of lever-pole (playing into a wooden jawed socket and weighted with a rock or pieces of iron)--the watergate can be opened against a strong head way of water. The water flows over the top of the spilway when it is elos- ed, and raising the gate the pond can emptied or reduced to the normal level of the brook.--Country Life in Arneri- ca

THE GE1sHA GIRL OF JAPAN.

There are many geisha training schools in Japan, but the best of them all is. I think, the one In Kioto to which I, with some difficulty, gained admittance. It is apparently delight full place, but it is a place of unremitt- ing toil The girls are apprenticed to these schools by their parents or guar dians at the age oftentimes Of six years, and for ten years, at least, they are put through such 6 course of train 1 ing as would break the spirits of girls less inured to unquestioning obedience to authority. Their physical training Is of great importance, of course and each little girl must go trough such ex- ercises, every day as will keep her li- tie body flexible as rubber; and after that is finished she must devote her time to tasks that far exceed in diffi- culty any schoolgirl work imaginable to one of us.
 No woman of ordinary mind can pos- sibly become successful geisha, be- cause she must be able to acquire and make use of every kind of worldly knowledge which win lend to her con- versation a vivacity and charm that will lead men to, seek her society. The dancing and the music are the least of geisha entertainment as it is un-
