JULY 10. 1920.
THE NEW PARTY.

The most obvious fact about the newly organized
third party is it's impracucality. The main trouble
seems 70 be that its promoters are a little too
earnest, and hence deficient in a saving sense OF
humor-whieh means proportion and common
sense.
Here are several grouLs several schools OF poll
teal and economic thought. with little in common
except a spirit OF radcatsm and a feeling Of deep
dissatisfaction with the older parties. Aside from
this mood. and in the purely intellectual part of
their programs. they have much quarrel with
each other as with the republicans and democrats.
II did not possible from the start that so
heterogeneous a party could get anywhere The very
idea OF a political party implies unity Of thought
and purpose, and that unity must be based on some
fairly simple ideal The "Farmer-Iabor'' party
seems less political organization than political
mob
True. there are vital differences too within the
ranks Of the republicans the democrats, but If
either of the older parties split up into con-
stituent parts having logical connection with each
other, II would hardly make than two clearly
defined parties The new party has the makings Of
half dozen.
Discomfort thus loosely organized may possibly
poll considerable number OF votes In an unsettled
year, when many citizens have some political
grievanee-or have been so partisanly poisoned as
TO imagine they have. II cannot possibly win an
election. though That requires something more
positive. definite, constructive and comprehensive
The party may therefore be expected either
to disappear. as so many minority parties have done
In this country. else eventually slough off its
ninorities and. under the leadership of its
strongest element, force recognition and amount

PARIS HALLS A
NEW SCULPTOR
Shepherd of French Wine
Country Wins Fame in
Marble.

PARIS, July 1S.-Paul Adolphe
Darde, awarded the envied Paris
Salon national prize for his marbles
"Faun" and Eternal Suffering" is
greeted by critics as a genius, in
the real sense of that abused word.
Darde. in the simple telling Of
his career, stands out among artists
He is not trained in the academic
way He was a shepherd in the
region of Lodeve, in the wine cOun-
try Of southern France. Son OF a
small farmer. he watched flock
or worked the ground until he was
20. He fought in the war and today
famous, he is only 81.
The big. powerful. blond headed
peasant. began drawing, he says,
when he was eight but felt his own
wav until he took a drawing course
in the Lodeve high school and later
studied at Montpelier getting, as he
saws. guidance IN his first steps.
Through the counsel OF his two art
teachers ne came TO Paris. He spant
five weeks here in the government
art institute and worked three days
in Robins studio. With that slim
grip OF the classic school and the
modernity of Rodln, Darde began
the working in marble and metal
that made experience his teacher.
Il have no preference in schools
Darde says. u love all that is beau
tiful in art as in life. He has been
likened most closely 20 Rodin. but
he admires first OF all the work or
Jean Goujon and secondly that Of
Barve and Rodin of modern art
The "Faun" is a massive, vigor-
Gus conception. sneering. cynical and
sensual. Eternal Suffering" re-
presents a woman's head. snake-e en-
twined. with a face, upturned ia
anguish and almost distorted as II
with physical pain.

JUST A DREAM.

I dreamed last night OF a place I
know
Away out west where peaches
grow
Where birds are singing the livelong
day,
out where the farmer Is making
hay
There the sun shines. glorious,
grand
Over a wondrous beauty land.
There's pastures green and shady
hooks.
Trees, and rocks and babbling
brooks,
Rolling rills and tangled vine,
Flowers Of fragrant hue divine.
Just a speck OF nature unfurled
That we may love better this beau
tiful world. g. c. P.

When life with tense excitement

We're wise 10 all this glory stuff
And war 10 US can't throw a bluff
Besides the game is awful rough.
No, thanks, well keep our seat.
We tell the world they fooled US

We're going 70 keep our seat.

No frost is in our feet

We'd rather stay out Of the muss
And watch from our back seat
But. bud. you know ar elephant
Won't keep us in our seat.

And take a ringside seat

JACQUELINE.

The most picquant name in the
lexicon of feminine appellatives Is
Jacqueline Her origin dates far
back in Biblical days when one of
the twin sons of Isaac and Rebecca
was called Jacob and the mother
predicted that he would supplant
the other. Thus his name came to
signify the supplanter" and JAG
queline. which is derived from this
source has the same significance.
AS the derivatives Of Jacob spread
throughout Europe, France adopted
Jacques. The great church OF St
Jacques at Liege spread the love
of the name in Flanders and it was
when the English and French were
mingled together in the camps Of
the Black Prince and Henry V that
the name spread into England.
The feminine Jacqueline had al
ready arisen. Henry Y called the
wild Jacqueline Of Hainault. Dame
Jack She. like his Flemish sister
in-law, JacQuette of Luxembourg was
named in honor of the saint OF Liege
The nurse Of Edward VI, whom Hol-
bein drew by the soubriquet Of
Mother Jack was called Jacquette.
Jacquelines in France are very
lAulAltA Ouo anu AAAC lltAAAtN - N-ANA NiAAN
ly popular in this country where its
ready diminutive, Jack sounds good
to Yankee ears.
Jade is Jacqueline's talismanic
stone. 1t is said 10 bring her all
around good luck and wearing it
she will find her hearts desire. Fri
day is her lucky day and 3 her lucky
number.
