THE DEFINITE MR.. HUGHES

Mr. Hughes is worried over the expression used in the
Federal trade commission bill, concerning unfair COM
petition" He thinks t is not definite enough and says
so in simple language His eucdatlng statement Is that
T cannot accept the crude statement OF Suggestion ta
the antitrust law has been clarified by definition" Ii 1t
puzzles Mr. Hughes the rest of the world may as well give
I'D irving to understand it. AS member OF the Unlted
States supreme court he assisted in deciding that the
United States gave the OregonC California railroad com
panv certain lands in Oregon with the understanding that
these lands must be sold actual settlers in quantities OF
NOT more than 100 acres and not to exceed SOU per
acre He decided that this gift had condition qualify
np it but that in spite of this the lands were given to
the company in fee simple He decided that the company
must sell the lands settlers provided In the grantng
act but at the same time said that no time was hxed
in the granting act in which the sales were to be made
that the company need not sell them any OF them unt
If pot ready SO to do In other words that 1t need not
them at ALL His decision in brief was that the ralroad
company must sell the lands provided IN the act put that
it need not sell them at ALL
After few judicial gymnastics like that anything tal Una
is not plain to Mr. Hughes is beyond declpherng Inc
trouble is that he cannot tell in every day Engsh just
what he means about anything. Il cannot accept the
crude statement of suggestion that the ANTITRUST law mas
been clarified by definition" is about as close as ne can
come to it and that needs someone not betogged W'h
judicial wisdom to define 49,
He saws: "Why there is not businessman IN tne
country who knows what the act means or what ne snoo
do or not do under it." Is there lawyer Judge
or anyone else in the country who can tell Wnat shGu oe
done or not done under that decision OF MI justice
Hughes in the land grant case? Mr. Hughes pro1ouhu
and knows much especially about that case VIII ne not
kindly throw some light on what 1t means!

HER SIDE-AND HIS
THE "OPEN DOOR"
by ZOE BECKLEY

Cora, girl, you're a brick! You've
hit on the very solution hoped for
compromise. I might have known
you'd see 1t that way, little true blue
wife that you are And David's arms
closed about Cora so tightly that her
answering words came in a muffled
squeak:
1T was Katie's suggestion, tell yotL
Davy. But see it all as plain as day
light now. OF course, you can't go
wandering og to those bohemian par
ties all alone, belonging neither to the
married set nor to the bachelors And
as Katie says, it's-it's darling of you,
Davy. to want me to go with you
everywhere. All husbands don't. L
realize it now"
'Shucksw said David disparaging,
but pleased. And because you're so
sweet and sensible about it, kiddie, 1
won't ask you to go to many of those
parties; just now and then, Ell, dear7"
Cora nodded and was going to say.
ooh, often, but the telephone rang and
she rushed to answer it, Wanda Lau-
rence's voice greeted her, and, as If
the gods of truth were eager to apply
test, there came AN invitation Ito
just little informal party at my
house" But Wanda was very nice
about it. II know you're not terribly
keen on gay parties. dear" she said,
and you survived one so recently.
I'm not going to insist on your coming,
Cora, If you don't feel like it. But
we wanted you so much, hon, and
those two nice chaps from Yale are so
insistent that l just had to promise
to call you up. Do come, dear, IL
you're in the mood; but don't feel
you have to. I'll understand"
Cora put her hand over the instru-
ments mouthpiece and turned to Da-
vid. TITS Wanda asking US to an
other agar at her house tonight after
the theatre she said with a mock
tragic grin.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1916-10-10

We won't go. dear" answered Da-
Vid promptly. "Here-Iet me answer;
I'll tell Wanda she's a duck for ask
ing us, but we won't go. That would
be rubbing it in little too hard"
Cora pushed him away good humor-
edly, took her hand Off the mouth
piece and answered Wanda cheerily,
Dave says wen come" No,
I'm not MARRYING myself a bit I
really want to. Yes All right,
then-see you later
mo, Corakins you've only yourself
to blame for that" cried David as his
wife hung up the receiver. crossed the
room blythely and kissed him on the
ear.
know why 1 accepted? Well, 1t
was because l felt 1 didn't have to,
Davy. You can call 1t human ma
ture or feminine foolishness or any
thing you like, but it makes all the
difference in the world how thing
is put up to you. Before, Davy,"
Cora went on. dropping her gaze and
twisting a button on her liege lords
coat IT felt had to go to those par
ties or appear grumpish and hateful.
You didn't seem to understand what
an effort 1t was to me to pretend I
was enjoying myself. thought that
you werewolf little selfish, Davy,
in dragging me so often among a lot
of folks where ] don't fit in, But it's
different now, dear You were so
willing not to go tonight and Wanda
was so sweet about it, tool It's like
being in a room with the door open.
If YOU have to stay in 1t you don't
want to- But if you needn't. then
you don't mind
David bent and kissed his small wife,
1T understand, baby. You're a trump.
And to prove I'm In earnest about
meeting you half way, I'm going to
bring you home when the clock strikes
IL; and this is the last jamboree we'll
go to for-well, for ever so long"

all the side shows; those especially de-
signed for foolish old men like you; 1
never approved of those things in tents at }
fairs that women can't see besides, Mr..
Caudle, what are those shows, anyway?
Never went in onei Don't lie to me, sir;
I don't believe you missed single trick
yesterday. And can just see you hold
ing on to somebody on the roller coast
err Just suppose you had met with an
accident, Mr.. Caudle; think of the humil-
iation / would have suffered when / read
the headlines in the paper, saying Mr.
Caudle, aged So, had been found at y
o'clock last night at the fairgrounds with
a broken leg q fractured skull, and
that he was accompanied by partD
composed of lady and gentlemen friends
from out of town.
IT suppose you had your fortune told
too, Mr.. Caudle, by one of those queer
looking oriental women. That's a very
intimate thing, Mr.. Caudle going into one
of those little tents with strange fe-
male and having her hold your hand
while she makes eyes at you and pre-
tends to read your future. There's no
use for you to go to such a creature to
know your future; I can predict that
better than anybody else; you'd better
never let me catch you, Mr.. CaudIe, with
one of those women holding your hand
or you'll be holding your head with one
hand and grabbing for help with the 9TH
er, when I get through with you, sir"
And I can picture you, Mr.. Caudle,
flirting and acting silly with strange
girls at the fair who were tickling you
with feather busters and throwing con-
fetti in your face. You couldn't help It?
Don't tell me that, sir.8 People don't
throw confetti in your face or tickle you
unless they are encouraged to do it, No
body would dare to tickle me with a ,
feather duster or throw confetti at me.
I'm respectable woman, the mother Of
eight children and my age and dignity
mean something to me, sir! Pah! It's
disgusting. Mr.. Caudle! if there's any,
thing hate it's gay old man. who
thinks he's fascinating and attractive.
When do you expect to settle down and
behave yourself like a middle-aged gen.
tleman should? No wonder you stick
your head under the bed clothing; I'd
do it, too, if I had gone to the fair
and behaved as you did. No, Pm not
making myself ridiculous, Mr. Caudle; it's
you that has already made yourself so;
I'm ashamed of you; feel that I can
never hold my head up again. Oh dear!
Oh dear! Why was I ever born
wornan?"
