to Confer? Because Confer had acquired great notoriety for his attacks on the army, and young Bernstein, foolish and headstrong, followed evil counsels, and thought it fine thing to tell Confer all about it.
 Years of study and seclusion made Bern- stein one of the finest dramatic authors of his day. His new piece, "Apres Mol, was. staged at the Comedie Francaise with all the magnificence it's merit de- served This was too much for the in- spirers of IAeuvre so the letter was published and sold at the doors of the theatre. The public was told that it was shameful thing for a deserter to be given such honor at the House of Mo- Here.
 In reality, Bernstein was attacked be- cause he was a Jew. The unruly in- cdents, the scandalous scenes, that took place every night during the perform ance were against the Jew" rather than against the ''deserter'
 The growth of anti-Semetic animosity in France Is becoming very noticeable. The Action Franchise and the Autorite have fallen into line with the Libro Pa role and there Is the additional menac of the labor syndicate's campaign against Jewish capitalists.

 The promise was not an easy one, for he is passionately fond of the new sport and has won a name for himself in le monde ou Ton 8 envole." But his future wife had begged him to remain on terra firma once they were married. and SO with a heavy heart, he went for a last long flight, and, after a joyous exultant canter in the air he imprinted pas sonate kiss on the wings of his beloved aeroplane and bade it farewell forever Some of his sporting friends said he was wrong to listen to his wife. while others-older and more sedate men-said he did quite right, that single man might risk his neck if he liked; his life was his own, and, so long as no one was dependent on him, he had only him- self to consider. But, if he married, the position was no longer the same
 The aeroplane Is inseparable from cer- tain dangers, and no man. even the most expert and careful. can assert with cer- tainty that, once he leaves the gorund he will return to it with safety. Even if there be no flaw in the machine-and some defects are hidden from the scruti- ny of the most prudent mechanic-the air is a capricious element and none can tell what a sudden gust of wind may do.
 Is it wise, then, for an aviator tc risk making his wife widow. perhaps after a few months, few years, of mar. ried life. To judge from the answers given by the most closely > interested opinions vary quite as much as they dc on the harem skirt. No hard-and-fasl rule can be laid down; each case must be decided on it's merits.
