WOMEN AND COMPLIMENTS


You great, big, beautiful doll" sang
Barclay Sill, softly, as he took his seat
beside me, when Jim got up TO dance
with Eliene at Donna's party.
You are splendidly original. Mr.. Sill. h"
was my comment. II have been com
pared TO a baby doll either outright
or by implication by nearly every man
IN this room this evening, and each one
mas seemed to think that he was the
only one who was clever enough to
think OF that great compliment"
We'll, did you not expect IT, when
you got yourself up in that costumeg"
he asked, In surprise.
While might.haye hoped for some
one to have cOmplimented me-" l an
swered honestly, Il really expected the
compliment would have more originality
and more Of a ring or sincerity"
Willy do you think the other men
do not mean it?" he asked, II assure
you | mean IT,"
NO you don't. You would have said
the same thing, or rather YOU would
have hummed the same air TO any wom-
an who was dressed as I am whether
she were sixteen or sixty. IL comes
always TO the masculine mind that the
greatest compliment he can pay a wom-I
an is to call her something that is as
absolutely useless as a baby, and the
more trite the compliment is the more
men Will say it. l confess, however.
Mr.. Sill, that l thought you at least
would say something different"
Barclay Sill looked somewhat fused
and then he blurted out, what do you
want me TO say2"

Children Must Not Throw Glass
Info Street, Judge Prickeff Rules

ways come as something Of a shock to
the spectators. Blanche Emmallne had
told circumstantial story Of the out
rageous language to which she had
been subjected. and Of the swift ven
seance she had taken upon her en-
emies.
However this meant nothing to
Blanche Emmaline's mother, when faced
with the possibility Of having to pay
lgnace's doctors bill. She announced
calmly that her little girl had not
thrown the glass, but had happened
to be passing when another child threw
il. Blanche Emmaline was plainly sur
prised at this; in fact, everyone seemed
surprised but Judge Prickett and Mrs.
Snow. The latter told her story with
a gravity and assurance that defled sus-
picion.
From here on the case became con-
fused. There were so many charges
and counter charges, contradictions and
reversals Of testimony, that IL would
have required dozen lawyers to un-
tangle it.
Very wisely, Judge Pickett did not
try. He has learned by experience that
It does not pay. An understanding OF
all the ins, and outs is not always ne
cessary for rendering a wise decision.
The decision In this case was clear and
to the point. Polish children must not
call colored children names. ColoreO 4
children must nCt throw glass, bricks. |
scrap iron or stones, no matter what
the provocation. All children had bet /
ter keep of the streets as much as pos
sible. and the court will see to II that
these particular children do.

be assigned to guard duty.
Orders have also been received by the

Assault and battery has very
grown-up sound. It suggests adult
rage, patrol wagons and hospitals. II
is not exactly the charge you think of
in connection with an alteration be-
tween two little boys and a girl, all
under nine, which took place in a back
yard on a sunny summe rafternoon.
But the law makes no fine distinc-
tiOns Of this kind and so Blanche En-
maline Snow foun5 herself before
Judge Prickett in the Juvenile Court
yesterday to answer 10 this high
sounding accusation. 10 must be ad-
mitted that Ignace Presyznirs nose
testified eloquently TO the correctness
Of the charge. in spite Of the tender
years Of the defendant.
Blanche Emmaline is six, small for
her age, and colored. The Polish boys
who appeared against her are aged five
and nine, lngace being the younger.
Blanche made a brave attempt 10 con-
vince the court that II boys call you
names you are justified in retllating
with heavy pieces Of jagged glass. The
Judge was not entirely unsympathetlc.
He conceded that he objected to be-
ing called names himsef. but no
adroitness on Emmslne's part could
make him admit that the worst names
Justify throwing glass. When he hint
ed at milder measures, Emmaline
thought she had him, and promptly
testified that she had tried a stick
first, but that this had only stimu-
lated further insult, and that nothing
Is as eilcacious in sifencing Polish
boys as a long range glass attack from
behind the gate at the end Of the yard.
II was an eloquent defense, yet it left
the court unmoved.
Next, Mrs. Presyznll endeavored TO
show cause why Blanche, Emmallne's
mother, should pay the doctor for the
generous supply Of adhesive plaster that
Ignace proudly wore. II was after this
hat Mrs. Snow introduced one of those
)uzzllng bits Of evidence with which |
IS court is so familiar. but which al
