Extravaaance Not Habit of Rich.

Extravaganza, oddly enough, is not habit of the rich so much
 as it is of the poor. The Midases and Croesuses in every neighbor-
 hood are pretty careful of the
 dimes. They have a thrifty habit of squeezing the dollar till the eagle screams--and not so much is it through miserliness as
 through the habit of conserving,
 saving. With wealth comes the instinct l to save.
 Millionaires use the street cars, OF probably walk. People with slender purses loll about in taxi cabs. Only the very rich and the very poor can afford to dress ; badly. is the saying. Who ar" :; the people who dine with such retkIrSs rXtravagance after the thealrr in the cities? Among
 them are there many million aires?
 Not many. They are more like ly to have crackers and milk al home.

<" GUEST ART. tBy George Fitch.

'~>J >'Sc' oS iSShsj
 Cubist art is that emancipatcd expression of the rectilinear peri |pheries of cosmic transcendental- ism which is hest enunciated in passionate planes.
 If the reader does not under stand this explanation. he should be ashamed of himself. That the writer hasn't the slightest idea of what it means is quite another matter. For that is the true in- tenSiNrnesS of cubist art. Any fool can paint picture which he understands, but only a genius can paint a picture which causes him, when it is finished. to clutch his cascading hair with both hands and explain wildly: What ailed me when accomplished that?"
 Thus, cubist art is the qucs- tion of the puzzled painter to the intelligent observer. The paint ter, having had picture, and wishing to have it diagnosed be- fore he has another, exhibits it. It is then the duty of the observ- CT to interpret it. Under the cub ist system the same picture can be interpreted in ,000 different ways. One picture may repre- sent, to the trained observer. not only the battle of Waterloo, and the eruption of Vesuvius, but also a composite picture of the presi- dents and the great lumber jam at Chippewa Falls. The beauty of the system becomes at once ap- parent. By buying one picture, the investor can secure an entire art gallery, and can enjoy it for years, merely changing the sub Iject tag every morning, and vary ing his drinks little each eNen- ing.
 1 Cubist art is explained at length by the cubist. but the art is so much simpler than the ex- planatiOn that unless the con- positor will kindly pi line at this ipoint, the said explanation will not be reproduced.
 To paint cubiSt pictures re- quires great genius and self-re- straint. The painter must aban- dOn all previous ideas of art. na- ture and religion and paint as nearly as possible in straight lines. This can best be done in the ordinary straight jacket. SC popular in our leading institu- tions for the regulation of ad- vancrd and explosive thought.

DIRECT ELECTION . OF SENATORS
Continued from page i)

1900 and 1902. The proposed change on none of these Occa- sions won favorable report from committees in the Senate. With the House thus arrayed year after year in favor of the change. the Senate became the battle-ground. Senator Bristow of Kansas. took the lead in advocacy of me n;ling the Constitution alorg this line. In December, 1909, h" introduced his first res olu!inn. A year later he obtained a report from the committee, but a feature has been tackled onto hts pr.,l osal which brought on fight in the Senate, threatening to kill the entire proposition. This interposed feature was to amend other provisions of the Consti- tuition so far as to deprive the | federal government of power to supervise the state regulations as to the time and manner of- cleo tions.
 On February 28, just before the end of the session, the resolu- |tion was defeated by four votes.
 Senator Bristow reintroduced the resolution in the special scs- sion immediately following. The fight of the preceding session was refought, but this time the friends Iof the resolution won by a vote of 6l to 2i, or five more than the lrequired two-thirds.
 The House had passed a reso- lution which made it clear the federal government was not to in terfere with senatorial elections in the states. For weeks the measure was in conference. Fi- nally the House cOnferees receded and the House agreed to the Sen- ate measure by a vote of 237 to 39.

CAMPAIGN FOR
MORALITY LAWS
New Legal Standards Are Needed In
the State Of New
York

New York, Sept. Gas part OF
a campaign to establish new legal
standards Of morality in New York
state a group of sociological workers
announce their intention to stage
here a subscription performance OF
a play in which "for the first time
in dramatic history the perplexing
problem of the limitation Of offspring
now engaging the attention Of eugen-
lists and sociologists is dealt with"
Frederic H. Robinson of the So
Geological fund which is arranging
for the play disclaims any salacious
treatment of the subject, and pro-
poses to restrict the performance to
persons who are interested in soci-
illogical work. The movement con
templated for new state laws in
cludes making all births legitimate
and authorizing physicians to prevent
the birth Of undesirable children.
The play having this idea as its
motive is a dramatization Of a novel
which the sociological fund workers
hope will stir state legislators to the
need Of new laws governing these
matters. 1t is proposed to invite the
members Of the state legislature 70
attend the performance in body, a
scheme which IL carried out will be
new in the promotion Of legislation
in New York state.
The committee in charge OF the
sociological fund is made up Of many
well known men and women, includ-
ing John d. Rockefeller, Jr., Mrs.
w. X. Vanderbilt and Mrs. o. II.
