Selfish Ewes

A New York theatrical manager
said:
American ragtime is sweeping Eu-

posers get no credit and no cash
either.
Hence our composers can't help
looking at this ragtime furore with
sad and perhaps selfish eyes.

AT THE PRINCESS

Besides witnessing a drama
that has stirred human souls since
the days when drama was young,
"Sapho," as presented at the
Princess theater this week by
Miss Warda Howard and the Rich
ards players, is an artistic mas
terpiece. Gowns that cost hun
dreds of dollars, scenery and eff
fects that would stagger the aver
age stock company's manager, and
a cast of actors seldom gathered
together in a small theater, COM
bine to MAKE this weeks play a
triumph for the producer.
Miss Howard wears one gown
a shimmering, clinging vision of
loveliness--that cost $500 In
Paris. She has others of nearly
the same elegance. and the other
women players in the cast are
equally well costumed. Since the
play is Partisan. it was necessary
TO have the costumes fashioned
after the last French models. and
Manager Richards spared no ex-
pense to give his patrons the best
In Partisan gowns.
Sapho" needs no introduction
But the presentation this week is
given after a translation made by
Miss Howard when she was a col
lege student, and entirely eIemin-
ates the usual suggestiveness that
accompanies the French play.

An Original Source

Mary Goode, the woman who squealed on how
the New York cops were matchmaking keepers Of
disorderly houses, is to lecture upon the social
evil, to the annoyance of who think she isn't
fit.
Why notq She knows her subject from the in
side which ought to be the qualification of any lee
turer. And if we want the real truth about com
mercialized vice probably shan't be able to find
it without commingling with those who do know.
Mary IS former business isn't thing to be proud
Of, that very certain; but she showed pluck in
the way she braved the grafters and it may be that
this same quality can be harnessed to still more
useful service. The adage runs ''Set thief to
catch thief, = and possibly Mary would do better
as pursuer Of the vicious than some who excel her
in responsibility, but not in experience.
The first thing of ALL in this vice quest if it is
to be productive of any real good is, it seems to U.S.
to discard cant and get down to facts.
And the second which is even more difficult, is
to be willing to face them when we find them.
That's why we think that Mary may have some
thing worth hearing
The best of men have not dsdained fellowship
with pubIicans and sinners.

city with Ringing Brothers cir

the most daring high-air perform

more money than was ever before

thread-like cords of steel. To
these they cling merely by their

PEACE
BY Berton Braley

When all our monuments are dust,
When there's an end of every trust,
When aviation's safe and sane,
When bankers cease to work for gain,
When Justice and the law agree
And get along along in harmony,
! When strikes and lockouts are no more
And there's an end of bitter war,
When all of us shall have our share
OF food and clothes and Gods good air,
When women cease to think of dress
And cost of living groweth less,
When all men swear off smoke and drink
And there's nobody in the clink,
And life no more is grim and glum,
But glad as the millennium,
When all the racial rancors fled
And love sets every heart aglow,
When all the Mexicans are dead
Then there'l be peace in Mexico!

Answered by Mr.. Cynthia Grey.
Last winter I froze two OF my
upper front teeth. In the extreme
ly hot weather this summer they
have itched a great deal. Can
prevent this ?-E. B.
There are two ways to prevent
the itching. The first is by hold
ing piece of ice against the
teeth. but as a rule this is incon-
venient, and besides, the relief is
only temporary. The better meth
cd is to massage the teeth tyfice
a day for several months. The
relief will be permanent.

Grooming to dimped three-months- sold child,
tired mother sat door sill in blistering ten
ement in New York's crowded East Side one
in July.
A woman she had met but once drew near and
proposed to take baby to park for the afternoon
The woman looked kind and neighborly, the
mother was ready to drop and fresh air would do
baby so much good So the precious burden
transferred and mother went YEARLY to her
household duties inside
The hours wore away, twilight came and no
sight of baby Soon it was bedtime and still no
word of baby. In panic the mother applied to
the police But it was little information that she
could give.
Days passed. Then weeks. One month"; to
day, the mother heard feeble cry outside and
flew to the door, to find baby kicking its chubby
feet in basket the step below.
This was what had happened:
THE WOMAN WAS A PROFESSIONAL
BABY BORROWER.
In New York. as in most cities there are
fresh air funds to send tired mothers and
gasping babies to the country or seashore. The
woman, having no baby of her own, had de-
cided to get free outing on the credit Of an
others child. There are women who do that
regularly.
Selfishs Yes. Cruel9 To be sure. But not
more selfish, not more cruel than the arrangement
of things which compes babies to come into the
world with no other chance to fresh air and to
wholesome food than comes through charity.
Do you wonder, then, why when charity is Of
fered so many prefer justices
