WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN.
But We Are Saved From It by Skill
 in Equilibration.

From the New York American.
 During these seven Rooseveltian years the congress has become more and more galled by the executive yoke. He has been a feared and, therefore, hated parsonage in Washington, at the very time when his popularity outside was most exalted.
 And Eow the galled team has turned on it's driver. When he is about to lay aside the whip of power, the galled yokemates slash out with their heels at their former master.
 There is large food for thought in considering what might have been. If MT. Roosevelt had been elected to an other term, the next four years might have been a period of historic and tragic strife between the executive and legislative branches of the government Congress could govern the Philippines and Porto Rico, the Panama zone, Ha waii, and all the territories by a parlia mentary commission and create con gressional army and navy for that pur pose-at least, so the supreme court hal said. It could lop of cabinet portfolios abolish the forest reserve and do ava, with secret service.
 | Americans have no fear of such gov ernmental chaos, though our forms ap pear to European students as danger ous mixture of irreconcilable conflict of authority. The American catastro phe expected by foreign students is far ther and farther away.
 ] Perhaps it is the very necessity 10 reconciling our three different but co equal powers of government that ha produced skill of equilibrium in tn
 United States is incomprehensibl abroad.

1.-THE DEVIL

That much discussed comedy drama, .'The Devil" over which critics nave rayed unrestrainedly and to which audi ences in the east have docked uninter- ruptedly. is now invading the south, where it is being greeted with extreme coldness, if not absolute hostility. scant receipts rule in the theatrical box offices, and protesting newspaper notices are the rule the day following the per formance.
 .sThe Devil" strikes the South as mildly amusing-after fashion. But virtue does not trample vice in the end. and nobody lives happily ever afterward; hence, Dixie does not warm up to "The Devil as Dixie is wont to warm up to things of more uplifting persuasion.
 The cynical philosophy of 'The De yil'' may have awakened a responsive echo in the hearts of the New Yorkers but below the Mason and Dixon line there seems to be nothing doing in the enthusiasm business. It may be that the South has taken "'The Devil toe seriously; it may read-or thinks Il reads-a subtle meaning even between the lines of the play that grates or it's nerves, offends and shocks its better nature. They are more or less sensi tive people down that way, and 1t oft times happens that theatrical manager mistake their desires, and things tha have spelled success in the east spel disaster in the south. The general aver age inferiority of the companies tour ing the south may have something t do with this; certainly ''The Devil seems to be play that requires delicat handling by thoroughly competent pee
 pie to insure it's impressiveness.
 Taking it up one side and down tn
 other, however, we believe the play tha
 is fashioned on cleanliness and sunshin
 does please more generally everywher
 than any other kind. There is an el'
 ment of danger in trihing with goodnes

 ing, after all
 O what authority and show of truth Can cunning sin cover itself withal! And so the people now being calle on to testify to the merits of "Tf , Devil'' down Dixieway appear to , inclined to give evidence against u plaintiff. They prefer, perhaps, show 5 of homelier construction and wholesor l. CT appeal, so to speak. Which may 7 old-fashioned without being at all u 9 sound!

POOR SAINT VALENTINE
Time Has Taken Absurd Liberties with
 His once Revered Name

The paradoxical, not to say absurd, antics of time were never more quaint ly exemplifed than in this matter of St. Valentine, says Richard Le Gallien- ne in the February Delineator. Never was insult more whimsically added to injury than by the arbitrary associa- tion of the stern and slaughtered saint who fell martyred beneath the clubs of the Emperor Claudius, somewhere to- ward the end of the third century, with the joyous and essentially pagan fes- tival which takes his name in vain. Recorded as "a man of exceptional chastity of character, ito be asso- eiated with Ophela.'s beautiful, heart ] breaking song:
 And l maid at your window | To be your valentine,
 and to be grossly libeled by Charles Lamb as ga rubieund priest of HymeD,
 tended with thousands and tens of thousands of little loyes'N
 The historical fact is that poor St
 Valentine s reputation as saint was sacrificed to that astute policy of the
 Christian church, which, finding the old
 pagan festivals too deeply rooted ir the popular sentiment, changed theii name to that of some Christian saint
 and adopted them for its own. Thus Valentines s day was original, feast of Februata Juno, and, on th' [ night before, boys would draw th'
 names of girls in order to divine wh' | should be their sweethearts in the com ing year. The church frowned on thi
 innocent game and substituted tn z names of saints for sweethearts-
 whereby, it may be supposed, the gam , would somewhat languish. Yet, Il . spite of the church, the old pagan man q ner of playing the game has gone on un . til this day; and the country girls wi still pin five bay-leaves to their pillow 4 on St. Valentines $ eve, hoping to drear 1, of their "young man., and by diver z other sorceries strive to wrest from tn
 future the secret naturally nearest t
 the human heart--the face or name O
 the beloved. For the sternest of saint
 cannot prevent the world from keepin 7 immortally young, and the birds WI 7 go on mating on the fourteenth of fel ruary in spite of all the deerees of tn
 church.

THE HOPE or ZION

If is undoubted that within the past year there has been new and power full impetus to the Zionist movement
 which has for its prime object the re-
 establishment of Palestine as a center
 for the Jews. Only recently in wash
 ington MT. l. Zangwill, one of the lead CTS in the Zionist movement, man who has devoted his best energies to the fui- 6llment of his dream that after long centuries of exile and oppression the
 derelict Jew may return to his ancient
 anchorage. e A writer in Van Norden's Magazine points out that the revival of the con stitution in Turkey, with the promise
 lit holds forth of autonomous freedom to the different nationalities of the Otto man empire, is bound to help the Zionist
 cause along, and already prominent He
 brews in many lands are looking to-
 ward the Holy Land once more as the final hope of redemption for their an cient race.
 The Zionist movement, when 1t comes, |, if it comes at all largely, is not going , to be matter of sudden upheaval, but , rather one of natural growth. Already we may learn from the consular reports B that trade and commerce in Palestine have enormously increased of late years 9 and that this prosperity Is due very - largely to the incerase there Of the Jew v ish population. It is to the advent oi l. the new Jews in Palestine that the new t railroads are due and that the telephone = and telegraph now connect the princi is pal cities and even some of the colonies s. A few years ago and Palestine wal r. little better than decayed ruin; to 1t day there are 2,000 public buildings 1t schools, libraries, churches, and other in e. stitutions scattered throughout tn " country. And year by year the Jewis ,e Ipopulation--due almost entirely to tn
 Zionist agitation-is increasing apac or and the progress already made give B. bright promise for the future.
 d. As in Ireland the Gaelic movement " being helped along through the childre ty in the schools, who are being taught tn nt ancient language. so in Palestine tf ty educational facilities that are being pr
 yided are made to keep up with u he Jewish traditions and with the Jewi'
 spirit. The children in kindergarten
 and in the schools are being taught
 the original Hebrew language, which na. one of the remarkable phenomena we the new development. By the aid di- societies interested in the Zionist nov CT. ment a school of arts and crafts th. been established under the name me .,gezaleel the name of the hi ant craftsman mentioned in the Bible. ,ox Says Prof. Otto warburg, of Berl ces the head of an important committee ,er- Zionist work: ''The Palestine comm
