tary substitute for St. Helena one
of the prettiest spots in Holland.
There is nothing in the estate he has
purchased or in the surrounding COM
munity to suggest a place of exile.
Seems Above Sea Level.
Doom, like Amerongen, is one of
the few villages in Holland locat-
ed on ground that seems to be above
sea level. Instead of canals and bikes
and the monotonous fiat land occu-
Il pied by sleepy looking black and
white cows and pompous, fat wind
mills which form the unchanging
scenery of most Of Holland, the coun-
try about Doom, while generally fiat,
to Sc sure, but here and there a faint
suspicion of hillock, and the white
stone or pink brick roads wind quite
frequently through forest land
most of it the private preserves of
the Dutch nobility.
| Hundreds of automobiles pass
through Doom daily during the sum-
mer season, for it is on the main
highway from Amsterdam and Rot
terdam to Arnem, which passes the
Hohenzollern estate. From this road
through a long avenue of stately
trees is visible one side of 1.-The
House of Doorn." There is also al
most a constant procession of BIZ
cycling tourists, and the two main
hotels, with their white painted little
veranda cafes, and the pensions, J"
or boarding houses, do a rushing bus
mess all through the summer. In fact,
caring for summer tourists seems to
be Doorn's only means of livelihood.
The country for miles around is dott-
ed with handsome villas, summer
homes of wealthy people of Amster-
dam or Rotterdam, and the more
pretentious castles of the Dutch aris-
tocracy, who live there all the year
round, emerging daily from the old
time feudal castles for carriage rides
behind slow but sure Dutch horses
! driven by solemn looking coachmen
in tall black hats. Some of the no.
bility have automobiles and nearly
every Hollander has his bicycle.
Quite Easy of Access.
Doom is quite easy of access to the
ordinary tourist One travels by ex-
| press Train from u u SClC, d ll1CCSH
or twenty minute ride, to the station
Driebergen. There he boards train
of small but comfortable cars drawn
by steam locomotive only one size
larger than those operated for chill
dren in American amusement parks,
and this miniature railroad runs
down the highway, with its narrow
track at the right of the automobile
road, toward Doom and Amerongen.
1t is a thirty-minute ride from Drie-
| bergen, and the train, at the melan-
choly signal of tin horn blown by
the conductor, stops within a hum
bred feet of the entrance to the es-
| tate.
There are no guards about the es-
tate now nor walls nor meats to pro-
tect the house from the curious pass
erby 1t is forbidden, however, to
walk in the 200-acre park without
special permission, which is not be-
ing granted just now, as Herr Ho-
henzollern's furniture and art treas
ures, fifty-one big van loads, valued
at something over $4,000,000, are
being stored and placed preparatory
to the moving out of the Baroness
Van Heemstra de Beaufort, and the
moving in Of the former emperor late
in December or early in January.

ABOUT BABIES

Babies are delicious little things.
Everybody loves baby. Soft pink
cheeks, downy hair, and little fingers
that curl around your thumb are tiny
bits of fuses that burn a hole straight
through to your heart.
There is not grown-up, who, hold
ing bit of humanity in his lap, would
not give his own life to save the child
from torture or harm. Too often.
however, the things that can be seen
are not the things that would harm a
little child.
The hosts of bacteria which the
scientists have thrust out upon our
imagination to play havoc with our
selfish isolation make us realize that
thousands of little babies have no ade-
quate protection from the innumera-
BILE hosts One of the forms of altru-
ism, which the effort to disentangle
ourselves from our own selfish desire
to protect our own children has
brought about, is baby shows. The
war, however, eliminated baby shows,
just as it did white bread and FIVE
cent sodas.
White bread has come back Sodas
will soon be cents But what about
the baby shows?
A baby show is not only contest
of beauty to flush the heart of the
winners proud mother. 1t is also a
comparison along scientific lines to
show and teach the mothers of any
community what their children lack
and what they ought to have. 1t is a
method of standardizing babies-and
everyone knows that standardized
goods increase in value
1t has been two years since Colum-
bia has had baby show. The war is
over. Let King Baby reign again.

THRIFT AND PROSPERITY

October 10 has been designated in
the United States as Thrift Day. We
have our regular observances OF In
dependence Day, Thanksgiving anG
other holidays, but we neglect. for the
most part, to keep in mind that econ
omic factor which made them all pos
sible
Industry plus saving is the keynote
of thrift. Had not our pilgrim fore
fathers practiced rigid economy, had
not our revolutionary ancestors de-
MED themselves to win their struggle,
we would not have our Thanksgiving
Day or Fourth of July to observe now.
This nation awoke to the pressing
necessity of thrift during the past war.
Before the United States launched its
forces across the Atlantic, its people
were wasteful. careless population.
Toward the close of the war the econ
nv and thriftinesS of America made
itself felt in crushing blow to Prus-
sian autocracy.
Americans are again spending money
with reckless hand. One of the sur
est methods of combating the high cost
of living lies in work, hard work, and
consistent saving. Thrift Day comes
as a welcome reminder that we must
continue the practice.

four-act play, written with the express
purpose of creating public sentiment
against the semi-vulgar makeup of
some present day girls, the way they
walk, the transparency and cut of their
clothes.
Though the production is repulsive,
it hits the mark. 1t strikes at an evil
and when the reader has finished the
play there is no doubt what evil the
author of the play was aiming at. Its
gruesomeness would discourage the
average reader before he had gotten
far with his perusal of the book.
