SO sad. and then a kindly thing occurred
to cheer me on my lonely, quiet way.

had seen that lovely play called Hearts

you the little English girl who didn't un-
derstand the working of the phone up in

turned around. and saw one of the
girls who had so laughed at me before.
! nodded, and lump came to my throat.
l felt Just like the story-girl in Hearts
Adrft'-for | was drifting, drifting all
alone, quite penniless, and with no friends
at all.
II know I blundered dreadfully today"
sadly said.
"Oh. Ish gebibble about that my dear"
said she after you left, we all did feel
real mean. The boss pitched into us just
right and left-sad you were real lady
and we all were NUTS l know I'm
tough, but I should worry. Still, l did
feel SO sorry after l seen you run right
out like that. l chased right to the
elevator after you, but YOU had gone"
Il know l acted stupldiy, and proved
quite inefficient, too I said 1t was
the best thing 1 could do to go!'
The girl seized both my hands in hers.
Say, kiddo now" she cried, maybe
you amt the sweetest, most forgving
little soul, Let me advise you about get

II cannot-but I'd like to learn" said |.
She nodded sagely in reflective mood.

you could learn within a week from now,

Her language did seem strange, but
still I saw she was a kindly girl. and l
accepted her kind offer then and there.
A FRIEND AT COURT.
"If you are stuck for money" she con-
tinued cheerfully, Just take my tip, and
pawn thing or two. I have another

To the Editor OF the Woman's Page, Evening
LcdOcr:
Madam-Woman' sphere Is the home
a very trte phrase. indeed! Is the
woman perpetuallv bound to her four
walls by the marriage vows? The mod
ern woman fortunately does not take
this archaic view. She Is hungry for
culture and self-development, the aCquisi-
tion of which comes mainly from con-
tact with the great world outside, far
from her own Penates
Recently | heard propounded a very
workable and rational solution of one
phase OF the marital problem. whereby
the irksome and monotonous round of
existence can be much mollfed and
frightened by an occasional interlude of
wholesome relaxation.
This plan does not go to the Havelock
Ellis extreme, but provides for one night
of absolute freedom each week, for hus-
band and wife. They may go whither-
soever their interest may impel them,
the man to his club, the woman to hers,
perhaps, or to some other object of
feminine interests This occasional
break in the daily aye yearly. intimacy
will help to dispel the dread dullness and
boredom that hovers about so many
homes today, and makes for so many
marital mishaps.
As a bachelor, contemplating matri-
mony. I humhly offer this suggestion for
the careful consideration of those already

party councils that made the United
States the greatest nation on earn.
Gradually, however. the powers OF
wealth and privilege got control Of
the party organization and it failed
to respond to the heart throbs of the
great middle class which are the life
of any party. The power of IN
trenched privilege had its grip on
the organization OF the party and
temporarily, at least, they wrecked
the party Whether the Republican
parry can come back depends entire
ly whether its leaders are willing to
return the absolute control OF the
party to the rank and file.
This, in small way, is the Issue
at the meeting of the Republican
state committee next Tuesday We
do not seek to dictate, but we venture
in all humility to suggest. a large
number of voters in Vermont are
suspicious OF the Republican party
because they feel or suspect that the
rank and file of the voters do not
control it but thai it is too much in
the hands of lawyers, bankers, manu-
facturers, and other rich or inhusn
tial men and that the great middle
class do not have much to say.
The one thing that the state com
mittee can do that will amount TO
anything is 20 take steps to return
the absolute control of the party to
he rank and file of is membership,
The state has voted overwhelmingly
for direct primary in the making
of nominations, but we may nos set
4 law in season. Let the Republican
state committee. provide for Repn5
lican primary and formulate plans
to turn over the whole party ma
chinery to the Rer ublican voters
Any other plan will be futile.
There should De nc talk egon OF
filing vacancies on The committee
with an idea OF getting together a
group Of men who can pull tie party
through It cannot be pulled
through by the main strength of any
bunch 0f lliticians.
There is a tendency OF the rank
and fll Of the Republicans and Pro
gressiyes 20 get together in spite OF
the yceiferous shoutings Of alleged
leaders who are crazy 10 have them
join but who want to hoin the tie
that binds. II may be that the two
parties can get together hu. the long
time leaders of the Republican party
should know that If they do 1t won't
be under the old board OF direc .ors.
Some OF the Progressive leaders may
we'll learn the same lesson. For Il
time their followers may be doeile

in the long run the party which is
not controlled by its great middle
class will be wrecked by some in.
