To Meet Mr.. Jones and Miss Smith.
By DOROTHY DIX.
The Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.

In tens of thousands Of American
homes, at this season of the year,
there is being enaC,ed a domestic
drama that is either tragedy or come
dy, according to your Ioint of view.
They who went forth to college last
fall plain Eobby Jones and Sallie
Smith have tuIned to the bosom OF
their families Mister RCtert Algernon
Jones and Miss Sara Smith, and their
bewildCred parents are realizing. with
amaZement aud despair, that of aM
strange people under the sun there is
none with whom they are so little ac-
quainted as with their own children.
Bobby Jones. who went away. was
such a Dice, jolly. enthusiastic lad.
and he was so proud OF his parents
and his home and his town. The
Robert Algernon Jones. who has come
back, is a blase creature who has dis
covered that the world is stuffed with
sawdust, and is generally cinders, ashes
and dust. He patroniZes everybody
and everything. from the Deity down.
He calls his home town a hole not lii
for a dog to live in, and Goes not con-
ceal the fact that he considers his
father and mother superannuated pro-
yincialS whose opinions are only to be
accepted with plying liberation By
enc who has been privileged to have a
wider outlook on life.
BY George. can you beat it," says
Father. surveying Bob-Robert over
the rims of his glasses, II have al
ways regretted that l did not have
the advantage of a good education
when l was young, but II this is what
college does to a boy, I thank God
that the only education ever had
got In the University of Hard Knocks,
which, at least, beats some common
sense into the thickcst head"
And then father gives a contemptu-
GUS glance at Robert Algenon's fam
bryant hat and tie, his dinky little
stick. and the two sit up in embar-
raised silence when left alone to-
Sether because they have not got
enough points of mental contact to
even start a conversation.
And mother looks at Sal-Sara eX-
actly as the old hen who hatched out
swan must have looked at her fipdS-
ling. The Sallie mother knew was a
sweet, simple, clinging little girl who
flushed to the roots of her hair IL you
spoke to her suddenly.
This strange Sara is an aggressive
young woman with radical opinions
about life and expressing ones own

Another benevolent organisation is
the Swiss academic relief association
dents who are now prioners OF war
with scientific books and periodicals,
so as TO enable them 20 continue their
studies during captivity.
Swiss relief commission for war
hostages was also founded In Basic
as early October 1914 This commits
sion undertakes TO locate the hostages
and TO put them into communication
with their families and friends: IL also
makes constant efforts TO alleviate
Invalid Prisoners Cured.
But amenz all the numerous chari-
table undertakings which Switzerland
maintains on behalf of the war suf-
ferers, none has claimed the worlds
attention as much as the hospitaliza-
ton OF invalid prisoners of war in
the various health resorts OF that
While IT seemed improbable at first
that tho beliigerent countries would
permit any OF their men TO stay in
a foreign health resort during the
war, the continued and combined ef-

and disabled prisoners Of war re-
suited in an agreement TO the effect
that sick German prisoners held IN
France and French prisoners held
in Germany could be transferred TO
Switzerland for a cure. A most sue
cessful start was thus made t.. the
spring Of 1916 and the arrangement
has since also been extended TO Brit
ish invalid prisoners held in Ger
many and sick German prisoners held
in England.
A further humane act has TO be
credited TO some 800 Swiss hotelkeep-
ers, who, in spite OF bad business,
were generous enough to offer a gra-
tuitous sojourn OF three weeks TO
more than 1000 war nurses.
1t may not be generally known that
Switzerland has also had the privi-
lege Of extending courtesies 10 many
thousands of Americans who were
staying there or had fed to the Alp
inc republic at the outbreak Of the
war. Americans have since often en-

question as to payment. They ac-
cepted post-dated checks and promis-

relying on the good faith OF their
guests, and even went so fas as to
accommodate some OF these travellers
with a small loan.
