Practical Optimism.

An English playwright and an Ameri-

optimism and ten per cent. pathos. )"
said the playwright, There can be
no such sharp division; no play was
ever so built. And anyhow what is
optimism, if it isn't merely a blind be-
lief that tomorrow will be better than
today" And the editor did not seem to
answer when he said: 4 know a poet
who in an unromantic age has sung his
fame around the world. His simple
code is the ancient one of always doing
hardest the thing one can do best. To
the poet that thing is song. To you
song is good playwriting; to me it is
getting out a good paper. To all Of Us
it is the JOY of achievement because
right achievement is truth and truth is
melOdy-the ring of fine workmanship
q thing not dependent on blind belief,
but on a steadfast realization that
there will always be another tomorrow
for another try. call that practical
optimism; Rostand calls it 'Chantec-

SECRETS OF ToAST-MAKING
Cut Bread Night Before so That Sur
face Is Dry Before IL
Is Toasted.

The secret of having crisp toast is
to cut the bread the night before. so
that the surface is dry before it is
toasted. Another trick is to have the
slices, when toasted, stood up on edge
In some place where they can be kept
hot until they are served. II the slices
are placed one on top Of the other
they become soggy.
For toast that is to be used as the
foundation for poached eggs, mush-
rooms or any creamed food, half an
inch is the correct thickness, hot
water is distributed over 1t evenly
with q small spoon, and melted butter
spread on with bristle brush, which
comes fo1 the purpose. People who

 SAYS B ERG E R
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH l

INDIANAPOLIS. May 11.-Superin- tendent of I office Martin Hyland issued an address tonight that red flags could not be carried tomorrow in the socialist parade here in connection with the socialist national convention.
 Hyland said the display of red flags might incite rioting. Congressman Der ger of Wisconsin of the socialist na- tiOnal executive committee. when told of the order said, "Hyland is a fool. there will be no rioting unless the po- lice start it. Socialists are peaceful. We do not start riots"
 Aside from recommending the estab- lishment of party printing plant, the executive committee transacted busi- ness today of a purely routine nature. The establishment of a printing plant, it was explained, did not mean another party newspaper, as that is prohibited under party rules.
