Articulation,

One of the sorry phases Of social
life is where people do not speak
plainly. They muddle their words,
and this is serious thing. because
muddled words argue muddled ideas.
A clear thinker will talk clearly. A
man who has a real conviction will
speak in words that can be under.
stood. 1t is a great American failing.
this thing of speaking indistinctly
The fault reaches a moral plane
Truth demands clear expression.
We attended theater the other
day and though we sat near the stage
we failed to understand much that
was said. This is an imposition upon
an audience. II we were manager o.
a theater we would turn of an actor
who did not speak distinctly. The
very pleasure Of attending dramatic
performance is in understanding what
the actors say. A movie picture show
has an advantage over a theater in
that, at a movie, we don't have tc
hear what is said. That is far pref
erable to going to a theater and moi
knowing what the actor is saying.
The subject of articulation ought tc
be made more of in the schools. Se

dose burden of my life!
Thus honest, rotund Hans Batter
man, proprietor of the novelty store
of Brookville. Hans was at odds with
all the world as he groaned forth the
dismal strain. Things were not going
evenly. He was too fat and placid
tempered to get mad, but he mourned.
Katrina" he next uttered, and
shook his head dismally.
Katrina was somebody to grieve
over or rather her loss to Hans, for
she was buxom, pretty as a picture,
and her thrifty sire owned two we'll
titled and well-paying farms.
On account of Katrina Hans had
removed his little stock of goods to
Brookville to be near her and pursue
his courting. Then perverse fates
came along. One of these assumed
form and substance in Jacques Le-
mOine, French to the bone, and dandi-
fed and brilliant as typical Partisan
exquisite.
Jacques boasted that he was a trav-
cling envoy in secret diplomatic serv-
ice. After he had once seen Katrina,
he got his speculative eye on the
sumptuous land holdings of her father,
and decided to WOO and win an heir
ess. He completely captivated the
vain and dazzled maiden. She chilled
Hans with her hauteur and indiffer-
ence He abandoned the field to his
rival, who lavished attentions and
presents on Katrina galore, and once
week came down from the city in
an automobile and assumed all the
greatness Of millionaire.
So Hans mourned, but in his easy
going way gave up Katrina as lost
treasure and tried to buckle down to

bought out the remnants of stock In
a bankrupt novelty store in another
village. He advertised a slaughter

waters. He partly earned, partly
begged what he ate. and slept where
night overlook him. For all that IN
his roustabout independence he was
the envy of all juvenile Brookville. In
his airy, original schemes of mischief
he was their leader and idol.
Among other things that Hans had
picked up in his nondescript bank
rupt store was a beautiful wax head
of Phryne. It was quite artistic and
he set it in the center Of his show win
dow as classical fixture in the way
of display and ornament. Another OBJ
vject was a fine magnifying glass.
Strolling by the store one day, the
conjunction of the two oddities
seemed to inspire the mind of wander

Then he ventured to enter the store.
"Good day. Mr.. Hans" spoke Gyp'
smooth as grease.
Hans regarded this unwelcome visi'
tor grudgingly and with suspicion. BE
recalled soaped windows, tattered dis.

them all to the reputation Of the out
