numerous. well-dressed and gay.
\ waiter-not necessarily obse-
Quious-conducted Big Jim" and
his wife to a table.
Play that menu straight across
for what you like. Dele" said
Big Jim" It's you for a trough
Of the gilded oats tonight. 1t
strikes me that maybe we've been
sticking too fast to home fodder"
Big Jims" wife gave her order.
He looked at her with respect
She had mentioned truffles; and
he had not known that she knew
what truffles were. From the wine
list she designated an appropriate
and desirable brand. He looked
at her with some admiration.
She was beaming with the in
u"cent excitement that woman
derives from the exercise Of her
GreEariouSness. She was talking
to him about a hundred things
with animation and delight. And
as the meal progressed her cheeks,
colorless from life indoors, took
on a delicate flush. Big Jim"
looked around the room and saw
that none of the women there had
her charm. And then he thought
Of the three years she had suffer
ed immurement, accomplishing
and flush of shame warmed him,
for he carried fair play as an
item in his creed.
But when the Honorable Pat

NJ fNfA Nf l.
saw them and came over to the
quarters stretch. The Honorable
Patrick was a gallant man, both
in deeds and words. As for the
BlaTney stone, his previous ac-
tions toward it must have been
pronounced. Heavy damages for
breach Of promise could surely
have been obtained had the Blar-
ney stone seen fit to- sue the Hon
orable Patrick.
Jimmy, old mani" he called; he
clapped Dougherty on the back;
he shone like a midday sun upon
Della.
Honorable Mr.. Corriean-Mrs.
Dougherty." said big Jim"
The Honorable Patrick became a
fountain of entertainment and cd
miration. The waiter had to fetch
a third chair for him; he made
another at the table; and the wine
glasses were retilled
"You selfish old rascal9r he ex-
claimed, shaking an arch finger
at big Jim" Ito have kept Mrs.
Dougherty a secret from us"

her long CLOSED petals and around
her the room became garden.

without a vocabulary.

What S in a Name?
10Y
BY Mildred Marshall

Joy is one Of the glad" nsmeA
It stands alone as an abstract viz
tue. popular in this PoIlysnns-ish
era. But it has an interesting ETY.
mological history as well. Il
comes from the Greek 'Tovsi.- or
which the Latin equivalent is Jo-
Gus: the French joies and the Eng
lish JOY.
From jocus came the Armoricsn
prince. Jodocus. belonging to
family which migrated from Wales.
He refused the sovereignty Of Brit
tsny and became a hermit in Pom
thieu. where he is now remembered
as St. Josse The feminine Of his
name. Jodocs. - still popular in
Wales. England formed from IL
JoCoss, which strsiEhtVsy became
Joyce.
The latter form is much used in
England today as well as IN this
country. where its construction IS
generally Joy, despite the fact that
Joy has the right to separate cN-
istence The French Jocelyn is =
graceful and musical equivalent
adopted by US and in popular OS-
age.
The turquoise is Joys taIisnanic
stone. 1t is the symbol Of rros-
perItN though IL is the simplest OF
stones and has the power 10 PRO
teCt its wearer in any venture
whether from disease or accident.
Tuesday is her lucky day and / her
lucky number.

WOMEN FACING
GIGANTIC TASK
Hard Work Ahead to Reg
ister New Voters and Get
Them to Polls.
BY CONSTANCE DRENEL.
public Ledger Seryice.)

Ratified and satisfied! There was
a sigh of relief all over the country
last week that the question which
has been occupying so much public
attention these last few months had
at last been settled. Now the States
which are affected by the Federal
suffrage amendment are busy set
ting the necessary machinery in
motion to take care of the new
women voters Owing to the short
ness of time between now and the
elections, much work wilt bave to
be done to properly assess and reg
lister the women who will take ad-
vantage of their newly acquired
franchise.
Had the 'thirty-siX State legisls-
lures ratified last spring. as women
suffrage leaders had been led to
expect. the new League of Women
Voters would have been spending
these months in getting out the
women vote. 1t is readily ac-
knowledged that a lot of educa-
tion and persuasion will be neces-
sary TO get the women out. Though
this long suffrage campaign has
helped in arousing more women to
interest in the vote than a shorter
would have done. still II
is going to require some work to
get the home woman" out. Citi-
zenship schools held by clubs and
suffrage associations have already
helped lot. But the ambition to
draw out a huge woman vote for
both parties is now under a handi-
cap because of the short time al
lowed.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait. inter-
national suffrage leader, when COM
nenting on the. joyous finish of the
suffrage fight. voiced something of
this sentiment. Since vote. for
women is now an accomplished
TACT she said. what are women
going to do with the vote? Are
they going to draw back their skirts
n disdain from all interest in poll
tics on the ground that il is cor
rUpt? Are they going to join the
army of kid-gloved men sIackers
whom l have heard proudly boast
that they would not touch politics
with a ten-foot pole? Or are they
going to help swell Americas
army Of voters who put conscience
and thought into the scales with
party politics and party candi-
dates"

The Head Nurse
Debne Public Health.

Trippingly on the tongue comes
the phrase public health" but just
what do we mean? One of the best
definitions was given recently before
the American Association for the
Advancement Of Science by DR.. c. A.
Winslow. Part Of his address. which
was printed in full in Modern Medi-
cine, follows:
Public health is the science and
art OF preventing disease, prolong-
ing life and promoting physical
health and efficiency through organ
ized community efforts for the ssni-
tation OF the environment, the con-
troll OF community infections. the
education OF the individual i'm the
principles OF personal hygiene. the
organization OF medical and nursing
service for the early diagnosis and
preventive treatment OF disease. and
the development Of the social ma
chinery which will insure to every
individual in the community stand
ard Of living adequate for the main
tenance of health.
I'm the development Of the public
health campaign Of the future along
such lines as these, ii is obvious
that many different specialists Of
fundamentally distinct training must
contribute their special resources to
the common task. Ignoring all
minor specialties. there must be at
least the following seven types OF
highly qualified persons in this field:
The physician, the nurse. the bsc-
teriologist. the epide mioloEist. the
engineer. the statisticisn and the So
cial worker.
FINALLY. there is the administra-
tor who organizes and develops the
work of all the rest"

Big Jim" Dougherty was trou-
bled. There was a being at his
side whom he did not know. He
thought of the sober-hued plum
age that this bird of paradise was
accustomed to wear in her cage,

that he had married four years
before. Shyly and rather awk-
