The conversation at recent social
affair turned to the beautiful indiffer-
ence of some children, when this story
was fittingly related by Representa-
tive Frank L. Greene of Vermont.
Recently a small party named Bes-
sic had a birthday. and little girl
friend of her own age was invited to
come around and help her celebrate
the glad occasion. Both were given
cake and things. and afterward they
happily pranced of to the upper part
of the house
Two hours later the mother of Bes-
sic went to look for the children and
found her sweet child sitting alone In
q great armchair nfbbling on rem
nant of the dainty repast.
why, Bessie" exclaimed the sur
prised mother, glancing around the
room. where is your little frfend?'
I'VE were playing hide and seek in
the attic" calmly answered Bessie, as
she continued to nibble her cake, land
gave up looking for her quite long
time ago"

University Functions.

What is the matter with our univer-
stiles is that all the students are
schoolboys, whereas it is of the very
essence of university education that
they should be men, writes George
Bernard Shaw. The function of q uni
versity is not to teach things that can
now be taught as well or better by
university extension lecturers or by
private tutors or modern correspond
ence classes with gramophones. We
go to them to be socialized; to acquire
the hall mark of communal training;
to become citizens of the world in
stead of inmates of the enlarged rab-
bit hutches we call homes; to learn
manners and become unchallengeable
ladies and gentlemen. The social pres
sure which effects these changes
should be that of persons who have
faced the full responsibilities of adults
as working members of the general
community, not that of barbarous rab-
bic of half emancipated schoolboys and
unemancipatable pedants.

GROWING a Character.

Character is what you are. Repu-
tation is what folks think you are.
Sometimes they are so well balanced
that you can't tell one from the 9TH
er, says Grit. But more often the one
is libel on the other. Folks exalt
virtues that do not exist and condemn
follies that are purely subjective and
personal Much depends on who re-
ports you Friends are always chari-
table and interpret our lives to best adj
vantage Enemies can see no good in
us and report as they see. So repu-
tation may fiatter or condemn Not
so with character. This is something
beyond external observation. 1t Is the
life itself as lived amidst its motives
and obstacles. Few people can know
its real value, for even you do not al
ways know just what you are capable
of being until the emergency demands
display your worth. What you are in
the face of severe testing is character.

CALLS BOYS TO THE coLoRs
President Wilson Asks All Between
Ages Of Sixteen and Twenty-One
to Join Working Reserve.

Young men of the country between
the ages of sixteen and twenty-one, not
now employed, are called upon by
President Wilson to serve the nation
by Joining the United States Boys
Working reserve. In a letter made
public by Secretary Wilson of the Ia
Dor department, the president says 1t
is the patriotic duty of these young
men to use their spare time in produc-
tive work and help support the nation
in the present Crisis. The presidents
letter follows:
"Permit me to express my great APP
probation of the great work underta-
ken by the United States Boys Work
ing reserve of the employment service
of the department of labor. To give to
the young men between the ages of six
teen and twenty-one the privilege of
spending their spare time in productive
enterprises without interrupting their
studies at school. while their older
brothers are battling in the trenches
and on the seas, must greatly increase
the means of providing for the forces
at the front and the maintenance of
thoes whose services are needed here.
1t is a high privilege, no less than
patriotic duty, to help support the ma
ton by devoted and intelligent work in
this great crisis.
Let me express the hope that the
young men of the country not now per-
manently employed may eagerly enter
the Boys Working reserve to fit them
selves by training and study for good
citizenship and productive service. In
this way they can show themselves
worthy of patriotic fathers who have
fought for democracy In the past, sus-
tain their patriotic brothers who are
fighting for it today, and command the
affectionate pride of the brave mothers
who are silently bearing the burdens
at home"

German People Not Permitted to

EFFECT ON PUBLIC FEARED
Copy Issued by Committee on Public
information Shows important
Passages That Were
Suppressed.

The German government did not
dare to communicate to the Ger
man people the full text of Presi-
dent Wilson's war message of
April 2, 1917. 1t feared the infIu-
ence which the unabridged text
of this message might have upon
the opinion Of the people. There
fore the official message of the
president of the United States
was presented to Germany in an
abridged and distorted form.
The committee on public infor-
nation Of the United States gov
eminent has prepared a copy Of
this message showing the pas
sages which were suppressed in
the report Of the Wolff Telegraph
bureau when the message of the
president was published to the
whole world. These passages are
shown in boId-faced type in the
following copy of the message.
The Wolff Telegraph bureau is not
only under censorship control of
the German government, but has
been consistently employed by the
government for the PRONUNCIATION
OF official opinions.

CONSIDERS PROFITS OF
RETAIL COAL DEALERS
DR.. Garfield of Fuel Administration
to Make Recommendation on
Scale Of Prices.

DR.. H. 4. Garfield. government coal
administrator. today had under consid-
GRAFTON the question of coal prices and
profits to retailers. He was expected to
make an announcement either late this
afternoon or tomorrow. He already has
gone over the Federal Trade Commits
sioEs recommendations regarding a
scale of retail prices.
Until an announcement by the fuel
administration Is made retail prices in
Washington are not expected to change,
except for the usual 10 cents increase
per ton. effective tomorrow, as at the
beginning of each month since May. Re
tailers still are in the dark regarding
the possible effect on retail prices of
the federal price regulation. though
they believe that cheaper coal Is not in
sight.
Coal operators who were in Washing
ton several days to protest against the
Federal Trade Commissions scale left
last evening. They will not come back,
they said, unless they are called here
by DR.. Garfield. Some of the operators
said they believed the fuel administra-
ton may make some changes in the
present scale TO smooth out Unequal
tiles.

SENATOR LEWIS CARB
A RARE HALF AND HALF
AT JAPANESE EVENT

Senator James Hamilton Lewis
isn't left-handed: neither IL he
graduate of Greenwich Village
or any other center Of new and
startling ideas. And last nights
reception to the visiting Japanese
ENJOYS at the New Willard Ho-
tel was not a masquerade. But
the Illinois senator's costume
surely conveyed some such tieas.
As long as Senator Lewis was
wedged closely into the mass of
guests he looked all right-con-
ventional xpiKe-tafied Coat, open
faced vest, cleaning white shirt
front and ALL except a flowing
black tie Of the Ebert Hubbard
variety. But when shif- oc-
CURED that cut him out Of the
mass the effect was startling.
The senatorial lower extremi-
ties were clothed in white trous-
ers; white canvas shoes were On
his feet, and he wore white hose
When Senator LOWS came IN he
sported a natty straw )ti and
carried n swagEer stick. but he
quickly deposited these under one
of the rustling palms in the
lobby.
The effect of those undulattng
black swallowtaits over ;ne white
trousers made the senator the
''connoisewer of all eyes" But
Senator Lewis las not one whit
perturbed: IT was his regular
summer evening uniform for So
cial functions. ani rot disguise.
