Squibs

Practically every Democratic pa
per you pick up has an editorial
whose theme is, "There ain t going
to be no panic" Why, who said
there was?
One OF the best we have read in
many day" Wife of Secretary
OF Agriculture, leads boycott on
eggs. Down with the storage high
prices. y The next day her hus-
band ISSUES publication from the
Department generating the Stor-
age Kings, saying that due to the
weather conditions the pullets are
a little late in their usual fall pro-
duction. The boycott has not been
heard of since.
Democrats are urging us to be
patient, that it is too early yet to
see the effect of Democratic policies
on high prices. Don t be disap
pointed is their cry.
Well, we are not-not in the
least.
Lots of applicants to enlist in
the Army. More than usual at this
time of the year, is a news item
of the Baltimore Sun.
There's a Reason-and it's not
Postum either.
A Democrat said to us recently
that Republicans would be awfully
disappointed if there wasn't a
slump in business.
But not so much as the Demo-
Gratis. A Republican sort 'o-fears
it might happen but has hope in
the blgness and strength of the
country's business to prevent it.
while the Democrat just naturally
feels it in his bones. 1t works like
the chills-he always has had them
N this kind of weather and looks
with dread the coming of tomor-
cow.
The reason we don't write any,
hing about the Currency Bill is be-
cause we are like Bryan-we don t
know blamed thing about it. We
agree with Wilson-hurry up and
get it done, it won't hurt our bank

W0MEN'S COLLEGE BECOMING A
REALITY

The Woman College is at last
becoming a reality. Years Of agi-
tation brought their honest reward
Ill the passage of the bill at the last
General Assembly. Now after
months of expectancy, the idea is be-
coming something really tangible.
We are just beginning to realize it
as a fact.
Heretofore it has all been so
vague, so distant. But now we
are beginning to sense the respon-
sibilities. We are realizing con-
crete duties in formulating definite
plans for the administration Of the
institution. "Higher Education
for our women-equal chance for
our girls "-have been very good
campaign slogans But now comes
the serious duty of effecting what
has been so enthusiastically advo-
Gated.
just what are we going to offer
hte girls Of the State? There is
general idea, of course. But de-
finitely, what courses of study are
to be offered? Here is serious
work for someone-a definite out
line of policy, Of courses offered,
should be given out to an already
inquiring public.
High School girls are already
planning for next year, s entrance
to College. Without some definite
information, we can hardly expect
them to realize the opportunities to
be presented here.
According to the usual practice.
this work would have to be approx
ed by the Board of Trustees before
it could be given to the public.
With this fact in view, it seems to
us imperative that some outline
should be made, discussed by those
in charge and presented to the pub
lie as early as possible. Prospective
students will begin early in the
year to ask for. definite informa-
ton, and TO insure the greatest
success, the information should be
forthcoming.

A Woman S Testimony

dted with testifying that real kissing becomes
monotonous during the second year OF marriage,

stops entirely before the eighth year OF mar

is written this subject, but there are
sensible ideas nevertheless, and the pure kiss
of love and of reverence Is a real and precious
thing 1t has ever been. The Ohio wife had
probably realized that she had not married a
man she loved she had not appreciated the
kiss of love. Certainly 1t is true. the Norfolk
Virginian-Pilot said in this connection, that in
the of many men and women who had
lived together for fifty years or more the asser-
ton of the Ohio wife is distinctly untrue. To
many of these aged couples whose love has
proved steady fame the daily kiss Of parting
and of greeting Is sweet and pure the

THE OLD MARKET BASKET.

Old-fashoned Richmond people will be warmed
toward Mr.. Bryan by the story printed In the
Washington newspapers that he goes to market
regularly every morning with his basket on his
arm and buys and carries home the family sup
plies for the day. 1t will recall the days when
the finest and most substantial gentlemen OF
the city went TO market regularly, each carrying
his own basket or followed by a man-servant
carrying II and will bring back the anecdote, of
dubious authenticity but delightful flavor. of
Chief Justice Marshall meeky trudging along
turkey for a iippant stranger. Whether the
story be true or not there is a suggestion In it
o! the soul of real. kindly democracy and SIM
plicity and sly and kindly humor that was the
soul of Richmond even when federalist sentiment
was strongest and her social life was most care
full.
In those old times the head of the household
was the head and the provider in a better sense
than merely paying the weekly bills. He knew
what he could afford and had pride in making his
money go as far possible in giving his family
the best he could select for its tastes and needs
Now the marketing is done by telephone and de-
livery wagon and the payment by check-too
frequently. We fear, after much dunning-and
the average midde-aged and young householder
hardly knows one vegetable from another or
beef from mutton, while the lady OF the home,
alas! contributes to the high cost OF living and
the monthly grumble by corresponding ignorance
OF values and is at the mercy of green grocer,
fish dealer and butcher.
Modern conditions make the personal market
ing impossible, in most cases. Grandsons of old
gentlemen who bIithely toted home their own
baskets every weekday morning would as lief
be seen walking In Franklin street. with a case
of leprosy as with a fine shad dangling from a
string. 1T is pleasant, however. to be reminded

An nrpERTrNENT QUESTION.


The vtrossso~ has no intention Of being oren-
sively inquisitive and II the question we are
going to ask our esteemed friend and contems
porary. the Danvills Regsster, is regarded as
such we apologize In advance and give assur-
ance that we will not feel aggrieved, though
bitterly disappointed. should the Register not
deign to answer.
The question is Of a personal nature and
for that reason 1t is all the more difficult for
US to put it. We hesitated when the desire for
information first came to us and we have shily-
shallied ever since When we sat down to pen
the query we hesitated: we hesitate now and
are lost Here's the question:
No We cannot do It. We haven't the courage
But, oh. we are anxious to know. II there were
some other way of learning that which gives us
SO much concernl Or. II we were not 80 curious
about the thing!
But then who can help being curious? Who
can help wanting to know how the Danville
Register knows so much about
There, we came within an ace Of asking It.
Another moment and it would have slipped right
out
II we knew whether the esteemed editor of
the Register were single married we might
know better what to do about this vexatious prob
lem II married he might fear to tell II single
1t might prove embarrassing. A way out sug-
gsts itself in the intimation made by the Register
that the Norfolk Virofnidn-P Pilot knows all about
1t and being OF the fact that the editor Of the
latter lives life Of single-cussedness. as he is
wont to name It. we will direct our query to
him:
How does the Danville Register know 30 much
about kissing? He tells US when and under
what circumstances kisses are sweetest; when
they should be delivered and how; when and why
they grow insipid or do not grow insipid In
fact, in detailed discussion Of the question he
tells all there Ia to tell about the subject Ger
tainly, we who were entirely ignorant before
reading his discourse, fairly wen-
formed, and can conceive of nothing else TO be
man, be he single or welded, should know so
much about thing that can be learned only
by experience and which requires two to give
the experience and several to give all he knows
How comes 1t, anyway?
This question Is directed to the Vfrgtni1n-
Pilot but If the Register cares to answer Its
kindness will be appreciated.
And there1l be no divorce between r R. and
the doctor
