A Fathers Strange Discovery About His
Child

In the December Woman's Home Com
panion nurse tells about some of her
extraordinary experiences. Once this
nurse was hired BY New York woman
| to take care of her small boy Jack The
name Of her employer was Mrs Ransom,
and Mrs Ransom kept the fact of her
having hired nurse to take care OF her
/ son a secret from her husband. The hus-
band thought it better to have his wife
take care Of their child, but the wife was
too lazy TO do the work and secretly
hired the nurse. The nurse goes on;
Il had been there a little over three
weeks when the crash came. Jack and

Mr.. Ransom had come home unexpected
~ with a bad cold She had started to
run across to the park and warn me, but
he had seen Jack and me coming around
the path, so the best she could do was
to give me the tip of what was ahead
OF me.
Mr.. Ransom was very quiet. He
talked to me very nicely, and did not
discuss his wife. which made me respect
him, He said ] looked like good girl
who probably would do his son no HARM
but he believed in mothers rearing their
own children as his mother had reared
him. He paid me two weeks wages; so,

sousa's Band Thanksgiving Night.

The popularity of Sousa band con.
cert is the direct result OF the genius and
instinct of John Philip Sousa in knowing
what to give his audiences. He has
been criticised at times for mixing the
bright with the serious, but his own ex-
PLANTATION for so doing makes human
and unanswerable defense OF his meth
DDS. He says;
"When You go to a play-say one OF
Shakespeare 's-do you blame the dram
atist if you are made to laughi Do you
want your money back on that account :
If you find a joke in book written by
George Meredith (you don't, but in a
book by Dickens, Balzac or Thaekeray,
do YOU throw the book aside. or even
think less of it because of the humor in
| it? Tell me-"
"Yet Shakespeare, Dickens, Thackeray
and Balzac We're all tragic writers. And,
to say the least. the function of music
is not to picture the dark side OF life"
"In the Inconsistencies of every
musician lies the conviction that i am
expressing now. The prime business of
the artist is to entertain, to delight, to
bring laughter and color in a gray and
ioyless world. Imagine world without
music, paiting and books. Think of il,
you could not whistle in the bathroom
any morning if no one had composed
tune; you would be a dull boor If no
books had ever been written; lacking
the work of painters and designers, your
walls would be barren Of interest, your
furniture would be more hideous than
most of it is now, your houses. clothes,
gardens there would be no gardens, no
theatres, no pretty dresses in the streets.
All life turned drab color"
"The artist sits in his study, writing.
painting, composing the JOY and color of
life. You know the saying, Art is the
expression of mans joy in his work. He
works best who works in joy, and his |
own delights he transmits to world |
that is hungry for joy"
II am proud of the fact that / have !
been called the Kipling of music Kip /
ling Is a very great man, q puveyor Of I
infinite pleasure. Mark Twain taught 7
us not to take life too seriously. Even
in his works there are tragic passages,
such as occur in the lives of the mer-
riest of us. But with him the human
interest and the comedy prevail; so il
should be with u.s."
That Sousa is right, every one will 4
