TAKING UP THE BURDEN

The thin lonely days wore on. The
weather turned suddenly warmer and
on certain mild spring morning
Annie was told at the hospital that
her husband was almost in condition
to go home.
"Of course, he will need care and
good food" admonished the young in
terne with the usual disregard Of all
probable resources at the command
OF those SO glibly advised. "a relapse
is dangerous in pneumonia. Watch
him carefully-no draughts, no exer-
ton. he mustn't go back to work too
soon. Plenty of milk and eggs to
build him up. Then he'll be all right"
Annie said nothing. She was think

she could get the most money on by
pawning. That afternoon she chose

With $11.90 in pocket Annie felt
almost rich. With rigid skimping she
could get along two weeks on that,

And two weeks hence Bernie would

So Bernie came home from the hos

there is a chance that something may
have happened to him. Are women
over seventy always quarrelous and
apt to be unreasonable? If you can
advise me l will be greatly obliged to
you. CHEF.
A woman of seventy is apt to be
cuerulous and unreasonable. al
though some at that age are just as
sweet and agreeable as the others
are hard to get along with. You are
doing exactly the right thing in be-
ing tolerant and considerate Of your
grandmother. She will not live many
years longer and you will always be
thankful that you cared for her when
she became dependent, with the same
faithfulness and consideration that
she showed you when you were left
| in her charge.
OF course you should be able to en-
Joy yourself in the evening. To go
away from home every evening as
some boys do would be a bad prac.
tice. Be independent in this matter
and when you know you are doing
nothing unworthy Of yourself, take
your pleasure fearless Of your grand
mothers scolding. She will have to
learn that you are old enough to de-
eide some matters yourself.
Have you taste for shop work?
If you would enjoy 1t and take inter
est in it think you should give up
your position in the shipping room
and get shop experience. With your
intelligence there is no reason why
you should not advance rapidly in a
shop. Your letter was written and
expressed beautifully, and in spite OF
the few years of schooling you have
had, you write better than many col
lege graduates.
believe you will hear from your
father again. His love for you and
your grandmother will bring him
back to you. Perhaps he has had
financial reverses and his pride keeps
him from writing now. Never lose
faith in your father no matter what
your grandmother thinks. Perhaps
his life would have been brighter and
better if he had had the faith of his
wife and mother to encourage him.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: / am in my

not see then that more schooling
would be of any benefit. My grand
mother brought me up, for my father
ana mother separated when l was
only little boy. They went their
ways and 1 never saw my mother
again for she since died. Ny father
has always been good about sending
US money regularly. But now for
the last three years or more that
have been working he has sent very
little and that irregularly.
l do not know him very we'll, have
not seen him since l was twelve, but
my grandmother said he was unde-
pendable. She Is very old and frets
a good deal when I go out an evening
for good time. seeming to fear l
may turn out like my father.
l want to be fair with her for she
has been like a good mother to me,
but 1t seems after working hard all

fun at least a few evenings a week.

MAKING AMERICANS

THE school for Americanization of
~ aliens being conducted by Judge
Joseph Burlington in the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals is one justified
by existing conditions, as it doubtless
will be by results.
If it ever was the duty of judge to
inquire into the character and ideals Of
applicants for citizenship that duty ex-
lists today. An American, secure in the
right to life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness, has the added right to make
sure that the aliens upon whom he con-
fers the privilege of brotherhood shall not
upset the constitution on which his rights
are founded.
So there is appositeness in the lee
lures which the learned judge. daily de-
livers to citizens in the making. Aliens
must be made to realize that citizenship
is big and important thing, which car
ries with its blessings solemn respon-
sibility.

KINGS, NATIVE AND FOREIGN

A LBERT of Belgium is king Some
- where at home he has a crown and
a scepter and royal robes and all that
sort of thing. Yet he has never exer-
cised and never aspired to the sort Of
absolute power that William z. Foster is
trying to grab as dictator to labor in
the steel industry. King Albert could
not paralyze the business life of whole
communities nor could he subject some
odd millions Of men to the misery that
follows upon class lawlessness and wide
spread economic waste. There is no king
in Europe who would not shrink from the
theory of absolutism that fascinates Mr..
Foster just as it used to fascnate some
of the industrial barons in the past.
Europe has found way to be free of
autocrats. 1t knows how to keep it's
kings in order. Albert of Belgium has
his acknowledged function. He is the
visible symbol of the state and he aims
to be an inspiration to national loyalty.
The world is filled with less admirable
rulers who, while they ache to be auto
Gratis, insist that crown is something to
be despised by free men.

of every great organization Of men de-
pends very largely on leadership.
Those who presided at the first as
semblage of the legionaries at Harris
burg yesterday are plainly sincere in
their expressed desire to keep the new
organization of veterans out of politics
Unquestionably the time will come when
selfish men will endeavor to use the
American Legion for their own pur-
poses. 1t is then that the returned
soldiers who wish to preserve in civil
life the causes for which they fought will
have to stand guard if the prestige and
the usefulness of their association are
not to be alike seriously impaired.
