One remark of a powerful speaker
comes to my mind: II would rather"
he said, "be ashamed of my ancestors
than that they should be ashamed OF
me-"
There's food for thought You owe 1t
to the race to go on, uplifting yourself,
improving, lettering, changing your en-
tire character. You have no right to
rest calmly on the laurels won by your
great-great- grandfather. You are fail
ing If you have not done something
little better than the lord whose crest
you are using. Shame on you, If you
are content to be the descendant of
commanding crusader and are not fight
ing in a modern world for q modern
principle of right in your own way
Ancestor worshipers will never be
anything in these days. The woman
and man who have the right view of
their line of descent will respect the
people OF their great family, and will
turn their faces toward the present-day
problems.
A descendant of the peasant should
command just as much OF your respect
as of the feudal master, If he has proved
his individual worth.
Do not consign the family crest to the
ash heap But do not talk too much
about it. The other person without
coat of arms but with some good red
blood. will seize the opportunity to do
something while you are looking back
ward.
Did you ever think where YOU and the
peasant might end if you went back far
enough? BARBARA LEE.

meanwhile, 1t was good to be alone, and
he had much to think of. He was out

hills to the waters edge. A turn Of the

hardly necessary to say that he had
done nothing worth while. His time had
been devoted to worshiping his ances-
tors. His life had been practically
wasted so far as doing anything goes.

If you analyze the tocsin type you will

one. while the other murmured some
thing about getting cooled off.
That man who rides in an elevator
with a woman OF his acquaintance and
is carried roofward gratis with his
hat still on is positive burden to the
man who is a gentleman born and who,
getting on, would raise, and keep raised,
his hat as in the presence of any wom-
an, and he does It to his great discom-
fort, because he places the other man
al a disadvantage. which embarrasses
the woman.
There are choice few, who, knowing,
do the correct and gentlemanly act
without fail, and to these excuses are
unknown. These are they who proclaim
no reasons for or against politeness, but
with whom 1t is innate. They would as
soon sit still IN front OF waiting wom-
an in a trolley car during a twenty-mile
ride as they would stand hated while
they rub shoulders with a woman or

The proverbial "womans reason" for
removing the hat may be about as shall
low as those masculine suggestions for
keeping It on; but several are offered by
way Of diversion and that they may
clear the air of a coming storm-and
then, too, altruism enters in.

could ride the big rapid without serious
mishap. She had called for help, and
four feet deep, though she could swim
like a wild duck. She had even been
careful not to wet her hair.
And worst of all, instead of going to
attend to that hypothetical packing, she
had padded a mile from camp, to their
own Cozy Cove to do this thing. A
great light came to him. and he gaZed
at her, sternly, dripping unrepentant on
the floor of the boat The day was still
warm. A sudden thrust of his paddle
brought the canoe swinging around
again, and a pull headed her up
stream. The girl looked up inquiring-
ly, but ne made no sign. Still averting
his eyes. he pulled back to their cove,
unanswering the amazed question of
her glance. until they were again in the
shelter of the bushes fringing the quiet
pool. With his baling sponge he dried
the floor as well as he could, threw the
painter over the hook of a branch. and.
finally, folding his arms, with the air OF
a judge pronouncing sentence, he said.
Now aren't you ashamed of yourself"
The sun had gone down, camp supper
was well over, and it was a cold and
shivering but aggressively happy pair
that finally pulled their canoes up on
the gravel and demanded beans and
coffee from a scandalized pair of cooks

chocolate in exchange for a full and
complete apology for missing the third

not love him, did not ant to marry
him, and was very, very sorry he had
been led to believe that she could and
did. but it had not been her fault.
They had known each other week,
and. IL he had thought she was such
an easy conquest as that, well, she was
very sorry, but he was quite mistaken,
and would he please take her back to
camp as quickly as possible, as she had
to pack. Her manner had left him no
room for any doubt of her sincerity.
and he had started to paddle listlessly
back to the tents, until the nervous
tapping of her foot against the ribs Of
the canoe convinced him that there
was need for haste, and a few deep
strokes brought them up on the shore.
He steadied the canoe while she stepped
out upon the big rock that served as a
landing, watched her as she slowly
walked up the little beach, backed off
and turned up stream. She was going
