The surgeon touched her arm. My
son is at Yprcs." he said. The nurse
stared at his calm self-controlled face;
1t gave her fresh courage. She handed
the scalpcl to him quite steadily and
the operation proceeded.
Presently four ordcrlies entered,
bringing on stretchers two wounded
Germans whom they placed in Il corner.
Neither the man nor the girl. bending
over the table. raised their eyes until
turned to the unconscious men where
they lay on the floor. AS the nurse
was behind the surgeon, he did not see
how white her face became while he
made his hasty examination.

to her. Nurse, l said you might rest,

The Small Town snob.

Tom Bodine in the Paris, Mo-, Mer-
curry: An English literary critic, now
visiting the United States, makes the
assertion in a public interview that
snobbery is OH the decline and is
rapidly coming to an end the world
over.
True perhaps everywhere. save and
except in the country towns. In the
cities. where the big issues of life are
constantly weaving back and forth in
the shuttle of human progress, men
and women alike are acquiring the
sense of real social values and are
daily becoming more democratic. The
very bigness of our complicated
modern life and it's collective trend is
forcing this attitude upon them. In
the country town life is vibrating but
family in response to the forces that
are shaking the world. and vision, at
best, is still small.
Here remains as yet the petty love
of differentiation. Women seek it, to
be more exact, assume it, and men,
while deriding it, in secret cherish it.
Here mediocrity is still unduly as
sertive and here the Ounce. unable to
achieve "apartness," sets up the bar
wonderfully devised Standings vary
from the ownership of Ford to a
Winton Six and from a bungalow to
a Greek porch.
Here we have with US still the Pod
snaps and the. Veneerings those who
ARE" those who "ain't," and those
who want to be-wi,h a saving mix
ture, be it added in mitigation, of a
few people really born with a sense of
self respect. Culture. so-called, has
come apace--at least it has come
but it is in the abortive stage and has
brought as yet no sense of that
spiritual enrichment and intellectual
renewment that comes to those who
allow their interests and their SYM
pathies-the real end of culture. Here
| folks are still divided into two classes
those who are common" and those
who are not.
In the country town Misses Teeny
and Tiny still edit the village herd

ever shifting quality" of the com.
munity must abide. The great world
goes spinning by. the pageantry Of
increasing democracy unfolds their
eyes. but they neither hear the one mol
see the other. The ancient order
changes slowly. but 1t is changing
Even Madame Parvenue. IL q few

that the Rich family are Ordinary

Father Wa. Un.vmpathetic.

Detroit. MIMI. Herald: Many of the
stories that are being told about we'd
ded life deal with friend mother-in-
law. Occasionally one is told of the
father Of the girl. One has just come
to our attention.
The young man was greatly agitat-
ed. If not frightened. as he walked in
to the august presence of the power
that is. After great deal Of STAN
mering and many false starts, he
blurted out, "Sir, your daughter has
promised to become my wife,"
Instead of the expected reply the
young man was hit with a volcanic
bombardment that sounded something
like this:
well. you needn't come to me for
sympathy. You might know something
would happen to you. You have beer
hanging around our house four or Ave
nights . week for three or .fou,
years"

THE HANDsHAkE.
He may be rich for all know.

He may be rich for all know.
He may be clever in his way;
A dozen men may come and go
To do his bidding, day by day;
He may be really on the square,
Perhaps for what is fine he stands;
To know him better don't care
Since we shook hands.
His fingers barely closed in mine,
He did not give pressure fine,
But in my hand he let his lie
AS dead and cold as any fish
That's long been washed upon the
sands;
To know him further I've no wish
Since we shook hands.
like the good old hearty grip
From men who look me in the face
And clasp my hand in fellowship.
They are the men that l embrace,
I'm glad to pass the others by,
And join with that true hearted band
That looks brother in the eye
And grasps his hand.
