BY GARRETT P. SERYISs.

No, in my opinion it is not possible
to read the future by the stars. Those
mighty and distant suns were not
created to watch over the inslgn;il-
cant destinies of infnitesimal man.
But it is the planets, rather than the
stars, that the astrologers imagine to
have an influence over human affairs.
These planets are simply other
worlds, which revolve, like the earth,
around the sun. Some, like the
moon and Mercury, appear to be bar
rem balls of rock; others, like Jupiter
and Saturn, are evidently globes COM
posed mostly of clouds of gas and
vapor; still others, like Venus and
Mars, may possibly bear inhabitants
on their surfaces as the earth does.
Why should any reasonable man
or woman suppose that those far-cff
masses of common matter influence
the character, the adventures, the
achievements and the crimes of the
little creatures that crawl upon this
particular globe of ours? The asser-
ton that they do so is pure play Of
fancy. There is not the slightest
scientific evidence to support it.
Historically, astrology is extremely
interesting. 1t has played a great
part in the development of human
society. Kings, warriors. statesmen,
priests, popes and even astronomers
in old times believed in it. Those
were the days when real science had
not been born, and when the ignor-
ance of natures simplest facts dis
played by the most learned men
exceeded the innocence of child.
| Astrology is survival from the
age when generals, sent out with
armies to save their countries from
invasion or destruction, wasted days
and lost golden opportunities while
awaiting the reports of soothsayers
upon the omens derived from the APP
pearance of the entrails of animals
slain before an altar or from the di-
rection of the flight OF crows.
1t was one of astrology's sister
sciences" that kept the Spartars
waiting at home for change of the
moon before marching 10 Marathon.
where the fortunes of Greece and Of
all the western world were to be de-
cided, and which left all the glory Of
that day to be reaped by Athens and
its little ally, Platea.
The survival of astrology is due
principally to the deep-seated love Of
mystery among mankind. The great

their influences.
1t was strange, dark world that
astrology and its cognate supersli-
tons reigned over. But there were en-
lightened minds even then which peii-
etrated the mist. When you read Cae'
sar's personal history OF his great
campaigns in Gaul, you hear nothing
about soothsayers, or the entrails OF
victims, or the flight of cawing crows.
You hear only of sudden and desper,,
ate battles, of rapid and unexpected
marches, of victory upon victory, and

pices. Caesar reformed the calendar,
but he had no use TO astrology..

Is Concerted Action the Secret?
This afternoon one more large card
party was added to the list OF large
successful affairs of that ilk which
have been given at the Blackstone
this winter, when the members OF the
Political Equality league of the city
OF Omaha gave benefit card party
for suffrage. Arrangements for the
party were in charge of Mrs. Thomas
Brown and Mrs. Mary Dykeman VIII
liams. The latter was instrumental
in securing collection of handsome
prizes which were well worth the
effort put forth by the guests to OBJ
tain them. About $50 made reserva-
lions for the card party, tea and in
teresting program of music and ad-
dresses which the woman had ar
ranged.
Philosophizing upon the success OF
these large card parties--for their sue
cess has exceeded that of any other
form of entertainment this winter--an
excellent and intelligent young woman
OF your acquaintance and ours said:
1T is not the playing of bridge or
high five that draws so many women
TO these large card parties. 1t is
merely the spirit of doing something
at the same time that great many
others are doing something which
makes these card parties attractive.
Concerted action is the idea, just as It
is in community singing or playground
work"
This is a little thought for the So
ciety madame to ponder over. Why
does she like to attend these large
card parties which are so successful
in raising funds for worthy causes? Is
it because she is altogether altruistic
and merely wishes to contribute to
good cause? Not simply, for in that
case she might contribute to the
cause outright Is is that the prizes
offered are beyond her power. to pur-
chase? No; because the prizes are
very simple, although pretty and
worthwhile. After all isn't there
something fascinating about being
among throng of women who are
all carrying on some definite activity
at the same time that you are?
II must have been this spirit of con-
certed action which contributed to
the success OF the big Franco-Belgian
relief card party which was the first
OF its kind last fall, or the Jewish
women's war relief card party not
long ago, which was another success,
and which instigated the card party
of this afternoon in order to secure
funds for the suffrage cause.
