had remembered me, had cared
enough to call.
81 will see him-jusr as Leola
wouldr' ] wh;s9red to myself when
again a stray feeling that Everett
would not approve swept over me
as l descended the stairs.
This is so good of you," Kemp
remarked as l entered the library.
what isl" l asked saucily, cal
lowing you to entertain me when l
was bored to death by my own So
ciety."
Mr.. Graham is not at home?'
Then, after a second, 81 had hoped to
find him."
An embarrassed flush made my
face burn as | replied;
"We only returned from visit to
my old home this afternoon, and
like all busy men Mr.. Graham found
matters that needed his attention., y
yet although l had spoken glibly, !
had a feeling that Walter Kemp did
not accept my excuse. Ny resent
ment against Everett increased.
But soon l forgot Everett in lis
tening to the airy persifage of my
caller. His brilliant dark eyes look
ed down into mine with the same adj
miration in them l had seen that
day when he lifted me from the dusty
road after our accident.
How | cudgelled my brain in vain
for witty repartee with which to re-
ply to his nonsense. But he SEEM
ed to be satisfied and soon l was chat
ting of my visit home, my delight in
meeting all of my own friends, and
the party mother gave the night be-
fore we left.
ooh, that | might have been hereV
he said with mock regret. "Am |
never to have dance with your"
eff we met at some private house,
yes" | answered in the same careless
tone. "But Everett-my husband
does not approve of my dancing in
public places with anyone but him
and that not often"
81 don't wonder he is afraid of
losing you. If you belonged to me,
I would buy a desert island and
lock you up on it,
ooh, how dreadful!' Then to ease
the situation, l asked: "Shall we
go into the music roof? Would you
like some music?" He rose and fol
lowed willingly enough, Then as |
switched on the lights he said:
81 see you have a victrola. We
can have a dance together right
now" and without waiting he open
ed the machine and adjusted pop
ular fox trot.
Tomorrow - Kemp is forbidden the
house.

Was this true of Everett? Had his

PATTERSON SHOW PHASES
Many New And Novel Features AT
Big Carnival On Maxwell Lot.

The best carnival abrasion that
has visited Columbus in may seasons
is showing this week at The Maxwell
lot on South Seventh street.
1t is the famous Paterson Shows, an
aggregation that has made the rounds
Of the big State and Tri-State fairs
for the past several seasons. The show
is characterized by its clean and
wholesome attractions, the base and
cheap attractions SO prevalent about
cornivals being conspicuous by thea
absulce in the Patterson shcws.
There are many new and novel fca
lures on the midway, including az
aerial fight attraction, handsome new
merry-go-round, the Win, wonder
lands galore, motrodrone G, ferris wheel
trained animal show, and athletic at
fractions.
The usual freak attractions arc
there as are the "Kewpie' and Bah
Doll stands that have s1,iolanted
the famous Teddy Bear racks of
former days.
As pane ca to drive dIll care
away the Patterson shows are hare
to beat for wholesome outdoor atsrac-
tons.
This is real honcst-to-goodness
criticism of the Patterson Shows and
is not inspired by the easy p,atitldes
of professional press agent, ror the
inflated claims of thu ovuer or any
member of the executive star Of the
shows.

HoNoRING THEIR SOLDIERS.

The good people of Caledonia are
going to honor their old and young
soldiers al Caledonia on Armistice
lay, Nov, 18th. 1t, seems that the
people of the whole county might
en- er into the spirit of this occas-
ion and celebrate the return of the
soldiers as well as the coming of
peace At Caledonia all the people
Of District one will gather together,
a greas barbecue and basket dinner
viii be served, speeches appropriate
to the occasion will be heard, and
the occasion will be one of general
rejoicing and Qualification.
Armistice Day should be cele-
brated all over America and it
should be observed here. Like a
flash came the blessed news one
year ago, and the whole world
went wild with joy. The widest
demonstration ever witnessed here
was staged, the largest parade and
it lasted far into the night.
Should the occasion be forgotten
SO soon? Should thesfirst anniversary
be allowed to pass unnoticed?
Should the sacrifice and sorrow, the
tragedy of war which Swallowed so
many lives go unno.iced? Are they
rot worth preserving and remem-
bering? Surely they are, and Ar
mistice SDay should be observed
here as a general holiday, and we
should have some occasion worthy
Of the great period it commemo-
rates.

boys to become active, performing
all sorts of JOBS with an alacri4y
that will stand in vivid contrast to
heir demeanor before the first
signs of the circus appeared. And,
likewise, quite large number OF
unclesA and aunts are looking about
raking up ncquaintances among
their nephews and nieces. They are
saying that dhey will probably have
to go and carry the children to see
the animals" But deep down in
their hearts they know they would
not miss the circus if there was not
a child within a thousand miles of
here on circus day.
The enthusias ic young man ahead
of the Hagenbeck- Wallace shows
confessed that he was at his wits
end today. He stated that the big
show has gone on increasing year
after year until now he finds words
inadequate to express the immen-
sity of the circus this season. 1t is
described as bigger and better"
than ever before. This year three
long trains are used to transport
the big amusement organization.
Twenty-Five separate tents are
necessary 70 accommodate the
Hagenbeck- Wallace shows, and they
are so large that they cover q
small sized farm. The big arena
tent is $40 feet in length and among
the largest ever constructed. 1t is
supported chiefly by six enormous
center poles greater than those on
: he biggest sailing vessels. The per-
Torrance is given in three rings
and on two stages. The Carl Hagen
beck trained wild ANNALS perform
in massive s.eel-girded arena.
More than 300 performers take
part in the program.
During the engagement here,
performances will be given at 2
and s P. M. The doors will be
opened an hour earlier to the
Hagenbeck ZOO. The parade will
start at 10 in the morning.

Williams Speech
Against The irish

WASHINGTON, Nov. l. Efforts of
republicans to sweryc the frishman
from his loyalty to the Democratic
party because Senator Williams of
Mississippi, some days ago, made a
speech critical of the Irish, have ap.
parently been frustrated.
For the democratic committee, in its
Washington headquarters, has infor-
nation from New York, New Jersey,
and Illinois that Irish political leaders
of those states, while resentful Of
what Williams said, and resentful
towards Williams, personally, regard
the secator simply as the senator and
not as the democratic party
Since the Mississippi senator made
his remarks which many regard as un-
fortunate, the republican publicity
committee has covered the territory
wherein Ilish predominates with lit
erature making it appear that Viii
liams was the party, or at any/rate,
was on that occasion, the spokesman
of the administration. As Irishmen
compose the bulk Of the Democratic
party above the Mason-Dixon line and
east Of the Mississippi rive, republi-
cans were aiming at the Democratic
vitals. But they failed to consider, it
it indicated, the natural wit Of the
irish.
Speech is Revised.
Republicans are making a great hull
abaloo cut Nof the fact that Senator
Williams, after delivering his speech,
Withheld it, FOR revision, from the
Congressional Record They claim
that when he did insert it, he failed to
insert macy of the paragraphs which
contained alleged excessive bitterness
towards the Irish What Mr.. Will
liams printed, however, was not neces-
sarily offensive. He denied that the
Irish won the revolutionary war for
the col,uies, or whipped the South in
1865. He referred to an alleged pro-
pensity on the part of the Irish to
boast of this and that, and of having
discovered all countries, having won
all wars, and deserving credit for
every good and perfect deed. But
there was little which tended to assail
the honesty and chastity of the Irish
race.
Senator Williams delivered his
speech from the republican side of the
aisle. When he concluded, he sat n
the seat of Senator Penrose. When he
finally yielded the seat, and retired
from the senate, Senator Penrose hu-
morously attached placard to hrs
chair. 1t bore this inscription:
This seat is the property of Pen
rose of Pennsylvania
