STILL A.MAN-MADE WORLD

This world is yet a man-made world
and to the hearts and minds and souls
Of most men. there comes no feeling OF
thought Of any wrong when he falls
for the tempting wiles Of a pretty
woman.
! remember as though it were yes
terday what Dick said TO me as looked
at him with horror when he made that
speech about falling for Mrs. Utter
Don't Margie. don't draw away from
me. | love you dear, love you only,
and yet ! wonder if any woman un-
derstands the complex heart Of man
man who gives to one woman his love
and reverence the best part OF him
sef-and yet steals away at times to
some other woman for whom ha cares
nothing"
At that time Dick that speech hurt
me so much that it lOOsened away an
other little part Of my faith and trust
in you from the mOOrings of my love.
Sometimes l have wondered Of what
men really think the women who are
their wives are made. They seem to
expect them TO be saints who under
no circumstances could be sinners and
yet they are usually telling what a
splendid place in which to take a stroll
is the primrose path. Does a man never
realize that when a woman first finds
out that all her illusions have vanished
into the cold and icy fog Of dlstrust,
her first thought is that she will daily
along the path a little way and pick a
few pOsies? They want to see what
there is in prlmroses that men like so
well that they never get over the de-
sire to pluck them and pin them on
their coats for everyone to see them
wither and die.

u. S. Builds 118 Steel
Ships in One Year

By Newspaper Enterprise Association.
WASHINGTON, July s.-The giant
task OF building bridge OF ships across
the Atlantic for Pershing is coming
along better than even the most Op-
tmistic had figured possible.
The totals for the month of June are
not yet available, but for the first five
months OF the present year iiS steel
ships, aggregating s05,0O0 deadwelght
tons, were put into the water complete.
And Of these 263000 tons were com
pleted in May alone.
According TO Charles Schwab. direct
or general Of shipbuilding, the country
is just beginning to get into its real
stride.
The biggest hopes are pinned to Hog
Island and two other fahricating Yards.
In these three it is hoped to turn out
in a single year more than the great
shipping nation OF England has ever
turned out in a similar period.
When Hog Island is completed there
will be a launching every other day.
To give an indication of the steady
progress this nation has made in ship
building. consider these figures:
In 1918 we produced 2i5,602 dead
weight tons Of ships.
In 1916 we produced 52Os57 dead
weight tons.
In 1917 we produced 9Oi ,223 dead
weight tons Of ships.
In 1918 the Shipping Board expects TO
produce about 100000 deadwelght
tons.
And in 1919 ships will tumble into the
water so fast they will make the Kali
ser's head swim.

derstand that to be a saint one must
have the same courage it takes to be a
sinner.
am writing this. dear Disk, with
absolutely no feeling except one Of
analysis and philosophy and yet at the
time you said these things to me
thought my lot was the most tragic
on earth.
Is it because 1 have grown so old thas
cannot feel any more? Or is it that
my heart and my emotions are just ly-
ing fallow after the long time given
to seed time and harvest? Have / come
TO that splendid understanding that low
ing is a much greater thing-a much
more satisfying thing-in the end than
being loved?
To love unselnshly is the one thing
that puts one human being above an
other.
When we find that those we thought
loved us have been untrue to us--have
betrayed our love-I think the great
est pain is not because Of our lovers
unfaithfulness, but because our love is
wounded, or maybe slain.
God pity the man or woman who
comes to the time and place where
there is no love in his heart for anyone.
He will not have to die to know the
pangs Of hell.
When a woman is very young she
always looks to the time when she will
be first in someone's eyes; first In some
ones heart; first In someone's life. AS
she grows older she realizes this Is
almost impossible In this material
world and then II she is clever she
pours .herself out in loving and flndr
