WHAT THE PUBLIC WANTS
Popular Taste 10 Not Always for the
Best In Books. Plays or An
ecdotes.

1T is a regrettable fact said a
speaker at a Republican banquet In
Fort Wayne. that the most popular
men are not necessarily the best men.
the most popular books are not the
best books. and the most popular
plays are not the best plays.
Even In anecdotes" continued the
speaker. the public taste is bad I'll
tell you the kind Of anecdote the pub
lie wants.
"A Bostonian was showing his two
little girls through the poets corner
in Westminster abbey. Bessie, the
older of the two little girls, carried
a rose in her hand. When they came
to the marble effigy OF Longfellow.
Bessie rose on uptoe and reverently
placed her rose in a fold OF the poets
marble drapery.
AS the Bostonian departed he
missed his golden-haired younger
daughter. Turning back. he saw her
still lingering before Longfellow's
bust Then as he regarded her. she
drew herself up on her tiny toes and
placed something that glittered be
side her sisters red rose. And. smil-
ing happily. she ran to her father.
What were you doing. dear oneT
the Bostonian asked.
"'Bessie had rose and hadn't
