HELP THE HORSE THAT HELPS
YOU.

From the New York Evening World
The unprecedented number of hors-
es killed by the heat during the past
week, and the untold but only too evil
dent sufferings of the rest of the noble
equine army, must have impressed ev-
cry one who owns or drives an animal,
with the many but in large degree
remediable causes of suffering that
sadden the city all through the sum-
mer. The veterinarians assure us that
horses are better taken care of today
than formerly, because they are worth
double the money they were before the
automobile put breeding farms out of
business. If this is the only reason it is
not very reassuring. Anyway, when abb
normal heat comedies with such a
scarcity of water that special dispen-
sation is required to keep running the
meager seventy public drinking foun-
tains that serve for the entire Greater
City of New York, it goes hard with a
poor beast. even when their masters
are kind and thoughtful. In two many
cases these latter mean better than
they know in caring for their dumb
charges.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
CHANGE IN DRAMATIC STYLE.

From the New York Evening Post.
When a successful play of twenty
five or thirty years ago is revived crit
les invariably hasten to point out how
theatrical and "old-fa shioned' dram
attic fare used to be in the last genera
ton. And, in a sense, the criticism is
quite justified. The sentiment of for
mer day clogs; the herOics only amuse
us. Even so expert a workman as Sar-
dou feels the changes Of time. His set
scenes-rage, denunciation, jealousy,
terror-are nowadays dismissed as
melodramatic. Actually, the difference
is one of manner and not of essence
We are quite as fond of melodrama
today as people were thirty years ago,
if by melodrama one means impossi-
Bile human beings acting in an impossi-
BILE way And, if anything, we are more
sentimental today than the Victorians
were. Only, once upon time senti-
ment voiced itself in nicely turned
and nicely balanced sentences succeed
ing each other in oratorical form. To-
day even sentiment has a lot of "go"
to it. On the stage, as in the maya
zines today the broad shouldered
young man who addresses spasmodic
halfsentences to the only woman in
the world is as popular and as often
sive as the heroes were in the age of
vapors and antimacassars.

Harold Durrell OF Boston is wise. A
graduate OF Harvard, son of a wealthy
man, society fayorite and an athlete
who made a record he has taken his
place behind the counter of a small
suburban grocery store 10 learn the
business. Clad in the clothes of a
grocer's clerk, he is learning how to
sell goods and tie up bundles.
"W-h-a-t" said his friends, shocked
Harold Durrell clerking III grocery
store! Why should he do such an
erratic thing:"
But young Durrell is not erratic. He
is just keen. wide awake, level
headed sort of chap, unspoiled by for
tune.
He admits his course is rather unu-
sual for young man so favored. But
he says Il man cannot begin business
at the top OF the ladder. and he is de-
termined to show that college life has
not untitled him for serious effort.
Also he is gritty. 1t is said of him
that he is OF strong will power, and
when he sets out to do Il thing, what
ever it may be, he usually ends with
achievement.
And he is thorough. He says to
know thing well at all one must
know it through and through. There
fore he must begin with the alphabet
of the grocery trade to qualify for the
position higher up
Wise young Mr.. Durrell!
His father, retired jobber. also be-

although he wanted his son to do
something else, he could not discour-
age the boy by reciting the hardships
incident to the long apprenticeship one
must go through to master the grocery
any business should be mastered.
1t is pretty plain that if in his COL
lege life they got his head up among
the stars his feet remained planted on
the ground. Many a college graduates

and he has failed because he insisted
upon starting at the top.

HENRI DUNAUT'S DREAM.

Henri Dunaut was a wealthy young
man. Like many other sons of the
rich, he knew nothing better than to
spend his money for personal pleas
ure.
Then one day he had a vision. 1t
was the vision of the Red Cross. n
dream uniting the whole world under
one banner for the relief of huma II
suffering. Yes, it was only a dream
men said.
But Henri Dunaut started out to
make his dream come true. Like
Paul, he was not disobedient to the
heavenly vision. He spent his life
and his fortune in orga niZing the In
ternational Society of the Red Cross.
1t was a gigantic realization of a gi-
gantic task. the uniting of the world
of men in works of common mercy.
What was money beside this dream ;:
And so Henri Dunaut literally became
poor that the world through his pov
erty might become rich in pity and il
deeds of mercy
And the world forgot
Not long since it remembered what
it owed Henri Dunaut. the founder Of
the Red Cross. He was old and poor
having impoverished himself in his
labOrs. He was voted the Nobel peace
prize. which will amply provide for
him until his death.
Who of the moderns has dreamed or
accomplished nobler dream? Talk
of captains of industry-the world is
tired of the stories of material sue
cess. Here is captain of mercy
Here is a man who has syndicated the
coed Samaritan.
Where battlefield or fire or food or
earthquake or pestilence may be, there
is the race of civilized men leagued
together for the succor of bruised hui
manity.
We talk about the brotherhood of
man.
Here is a visualized brotherhood,
colossal union of human hearts,
merciful mission in whose labors of
love is no distinction of race or creed
or color And Henri Dunaut has been
one of those of whom the world was
not worthy.
But now
Now the world will not forget until
he is dead. The world has Il way of
remembering its modest heroes only
when they die.
The world loves you. Henri Dunaut.
