is stated that the President is con
sidering the appointment OF james
Branch Cabell, the Richmond novelist to
a position abroad, either as consul, Oras
a secretary Of legation That the Pres
dent wanted to do something for the
writer is evidenced by the fact that he
recently had him at the White House to
luncheon. This is somewhat significant
when taken in connection with the TACT
that there is no doubt that when Pres
ident Roosevelt first considered the APP
pointment OF a Cabell to the position OF
postmaster OF Richmond. he Thought
James Branch Cabell was the applicant
and there are some who say that even
when the appointment OF Roy L. Cabell

seem a doubtful supplement-, she
said frankly. 81 feel like postpon-
ing it until 1 have somewhat satisfied
my desire for pleasure. But al
ready the gossips are counting up the
number of seasons since I made my
debut, and public opinion has a COM
polling force. For fear that in some
weak-minded moment I should give
up my freedom before I was ready to
do so, joined the club.''
A Chicago girl who lately fell heir
to a large fortune celebraed the event
by joining the Thirty Years Marriage
Club.
"Why are you tying yourself down
in this manner?' asked friend.
"Tying myself down? Not bit
of it!' was her spirited reply. 81
am gaining freedom. As soon as the
estate is settled up I will be off to the
other side of the water. Until I
am thirty the United States will see
very little Of me, for shall be going
up and down the world, into all its
strange places. In my wanderings
I will be quit Of fortune hunters.
When thirty comes I will have had
my I'll of travel and if I marry my
quiet hearthstone will be animated
by pleasing memories"
Both Of these are in doubtful
landing among their fellow-members.
Their views seem hardly to embody
the club ideal which is, in the main,
the doctrine Of self-development.
Pleasure is. not the aim Of the clear
eyed young women who have signed
the thirty-year pledge.
"Each of us was put into the world
to develop our own character, our
own ability. We must follow the
path that leads to that one of them
said. "Nor is the object an entire
ly selfish one, for each individual
achievement raises the standard of
human excellence.
The speaker was a musician, just
returned from years study abroad.
In addition to her concert work she
is studying the theory at Columbia.
"My ideal is to write my own
songs,' she added cit will take
until I am thirty to obtain the requi-
site knowledge Of harmony and coun-
terpoint.'
The girls who share her fiat are
enthusiastic club members. One is q
reader with a magazine publisher.
''I am having a practical course in
English" she explained, "and it
leads to an editorship.'
