There are some things I simply cannot understand.
 And one is how people can enjoy fine clothes and other luxuries when they owe money.
 How can they take pleasure in having things they know aren't fair ly and squarely theirs.
 Of course this includes the large class of people who permit them selves to live in uxury while they owe every tradesman in town.
 But it was not one of these people that got me started today.
 It was young girl of whom I know, a girl who comes from fine Greatly fine) antecedents. She Wanted to Keep Up With the
 Rest.
 Now while this girl was going through school money was borrowed to buy her pretty clothes so that she could keep up with the other girls Her father supplied the money for the schooling, but would not supply money for the extras.
 I will not criticise her for her lack of stamina in not being content with what she could afford. There is no greater strain in the world than to more money than you. That is why l would never send a daughter of mine to any school or into any so- ciety where all the girls had more money than she. It is too harsh

test for a forming character. And even If one rises above it, it's only at the cost of too many bitter bangs. And She Isn't Cramped for Money.
 If when she graduated from school and went out into the working world, this girl had immediately begun to pay back that money, that would have been all one could expect of any but an exceptional character.
 But she has made not the slightest effort to do this. Nor is she cramped for money. She has nice clothes, she treats herself to expensive pleas ures, she is most generous towards her friends, sending them flowers if they are sick, making pretty gifts for them. But the debt she cheerfully ignores
 Fancy Feeling Comfortable.
 Would you think she could be comfortable in her mind?
 Perhaps she isn't comfortable?
 Then why doesn't she pay it back if only a few cents at a time?
 No, I did not lend the money ft her so there is no personal animus in this.
 Perhaps there is some reason I do not understand. I know there some times is. But I can't help thinking the reason is all too simple

BY the dim light Of the moon you
could barely see the stream Of
doughboys pouring out of the shell

es. They said very little and trudged
along with that measured swinging
tread which enables Europe's veter-
ans to carry heavy packs almost un-
heard of distances
The stream seemed unending as
the United Press staff car picked its
way from squad to squad without
using lights, and without touching a
single doughboy. Finally one Sec

a ruined village. The press car
stopped, too, for beyond this point

The officers gave the order to rest
and lot of packs dropped to the

Their rifles they never dropped. In
