club that was conceived by son of
one of the promoters a false cry was
raised against it and falsehoods told
about the motive behind it, so it was
finally dropped. That was one of the
most ignoble things that ever dis

felt it ever since. Children are the
most human of all people Also they
are the most innocent. because they
have not been contaminated by civili-

have not had it in Palsade They
have nowhere to go evenings. no place
to slip into after school hours, not
even a school gym. What they have
at the Palsade school is of the most
Indifferent and primitive kind
If there was ever need for some
thing to be done for the children of
community it is here in Palisade The
enterprise that was killed by fools

hurt in a spot where consideration and
attention should have gone hand in
glove with the love all honest people
have for children. 1t is to be hoped

ALL is NOT GOLD THAT GLiTTERs

That trite old saving that all is not
gold that glitters finds daily exemplifi-
cation in our lives The origin of the
aphorism must have obtained from the
particles of shiny substance found in
iron pirates, a stone containing iron
ore and which is yellow and shines
when broken like pure gold. When
exposed to the atmosphere the yellow
soon furnishes and appears as so much
rust.
So with people. We see the men
and women who have all the evidences
of the most luminous wealth and
worth of character They fairly gilt
ter with fine show on the surface. and
we soon come to think that they are
pure gold. They make a fine show
they put their best foot forward and
many times cut quite a Swath before
their fellow man. And sometimes they
go along through long period of their
lives in this fashion, appearing some
times even wonderful as men and wO-
men, only to find at last that they are
only iron pirates. They are not pure
atmosphere of time has furnished their
reputation, and the rust of insincerity
appears, and they find themselves just
like the other stones in the gully, no
better than the rest discarded, cast
aside, found out-not fit to go into the
crucible where all that is best and true
and pure gold comes out.
If we can so live that the pure gold
of character can be put to every test,
if it will submit to the wash of acid
even, we shall have proven our worth
and wOrthiness. We must understand
that superficial virtues are not lasting.
We cannot be one thing and live an
other. After awhile the hammer of
fate comes along, cracking into char
acter revealing the fit and the pure
and proving the crucible gold that is
in us. Being fit is the great thing in
life, for when we live unworthily we at
last show our true colors

THE AMENDED LEAGUE.

Since it was precisely stated when
il was first published that the cOnsti-
tuition of the League of Nations as
then written was for the direct pur-
pose of inviting public discussion and
criticism and since this is exactly
what took place, what more natural
thing was to be looked for than that
the league draft be changed as seemed
most desirable from the criticisms?
If anybody will answer this question
in the negative after reading the re-
modelled constitution it would only be
because of opposition to the League OF
Nations on general principles. The
things that were apparently not plain
before have been changed into easier
passages that were not easily under
stood in the original draft are now re-
duced to palmer language.
But with these simple facts before
the public mind there is still cry that
the senate will make a fight against
the amended constitution. In the
meantime this was to be expected.
There are still many disgruntled ones
who do not like President Wilson'S
part in the Paris conference who
would oppose the most perfect docu-
ment that could be devised that would
guarantee world peace if he had any
thing to do with it, OF course if a
League of Nations will not preserve
peace nothing else could. The worlds
greatest men have conceived the pres
ent plan, and the one thing to do is to
give it a trial The Impotence for a
peace treaty with Germany is largely
responsible for the opposition to the
league. But, regardless of everything
else, the speed made on both the peace
treaty and the League of Nations has
been without precedent.

THE JAPANE Sc.

There has been a great deal of talk
about the part now being played at
Paris by the Japanese government
Reports have come that Japan pro-
poses to have certain race rights placed
in the League of Nations compact that
would make her the racial equal of
any other country on the globe This
no doubt is a commendable ambition ::
but, unfortunately for Japan. ever
since this has been Il world there has
been question of race equality, and it
will probably never be changed till the
end of time Japan has made great
strides as peOple-moSt commenda-
BILE advances. She has proven her
prowesS in comparison with other ma
lions. She has made for herself an en-
viable name in many other respects
But the other day when the covenant
was signed in Paris she failed TO insist
upon her race equality amendment
and so the document went into history

DOWN STAGE.

Mr. J. J. Shubert, prominent theat-
rical producer, returned to New YORK
on the Aquitania after a two months
visit to London and Paris, bringing
with him contracts for many new plays
and the appearance of numerous art
lists. During his stay abroad Mr.. Shu-
bert saw all of the principal plays and
remarked somewhat humOrously that
the impress of the American theater is
to be seen everywhere
Among the most important contracts
made by Mr.. Shubert is an agreement
with Henri Bernstein, famous French
playwright, which gives to him the ex-
elusive output of Mr. Bernstein for the
next five years. The first play by Mr.
Bernstein under the contract will be
Judith" biblical drama, to be fol-
lowed soon afterward by La Griffe.'
Mr. Bernstein, remembered here for
THE Thief is now in his prime, and
this contract is expected to result in
giving the American stage the first
views of what may reasonably be con-
Sidered the best works of this author
BY Il close working arrangement
made with Mr.. Charles Cochran, one of
LondonS most successful producers,
Mr. Shubert has secured the exclusive
English and American rights to BAL
Tabarin" This is now current Paris
musical hit, and when it is produced in
London and New York Mr.. A. H.
Woods will be associated in the prof.
ect With Mr.. Cochran the Messrs
Shubert are going to produce in New
York early in September the drama "In
the Night Watch" which is now play
ing i'm London. where it is a popular
success. Miss Madge Titheradge, seen
here some years ago as the leading wo-
man in "The Butterfly on the Wheel"
is enacting the leading role in "In the
Night Watch" and negotiations are
under way for her return to America.
A similar arrangement was made
between Mr. Shubert and Grossmith
and Laurillard, and the first joint pro-
duction is to be "The Belle of TrOu-
Vile" This is a musical comedy, and
Mr.. Lawrence GrOssmith will be fea-
tured. 1t is to have an early fall pro-
duction in one of the New York thea
tiers, under the direction of the MessrS.
