nothing special against her. But
he's such a remarkable boy and so

You're right. too. What did his
mother say to that?"
"She said of course he was young.
But his father had been settled like
when he wasn't more than twenty
two, which is just Gerald's age.
And she said they'd married when
they wasn't as old as Gerald and
Maude."

There wasn't? Indeed there was!

Nine. SoreI to Teach Ameri-
cans How to Attain Ideal
In the Art.
BY CECILE SOREL
(Fnmous Primn Donna of the Com
edie Frnncatse.)

PARIS, April ell am going to
the United States soon to teach Amer
leans how TO love.
How am ] going to do that?
Through the medium of a series of
French classical plays. The art of
being successful in love consists Of
living in the midst of artistic beauty
and luxury. 1t is essential that the
home contain the most beautiful fur
niture. Surrounded by splendor one
is bound to acquire beauty Of soul.
Most women mistake passion for
love. They believe they can hold a
man by dragging him down. whereas
real love means the wise use Of pas
sion to bring out the finest traits in
mans nature and stimulate noble
thoughts and usefulness.
Some women geniuses have a mag
netism which attracts men. Such
women should not marry and have
children: their mission is to fulfill a
social duty by inspiring men.
A woman who sees her thought
carried out by a brilliant man feels
joys as keen as though she had
brought a child into the world.
Instead of being Interested in their
own lives, the leading women of the
world should get together and agree
upon the best ways and means OF in
fluencing men. The world then would
be better managed, for women's ideas
would be carried out by men who
have greater power of action.
Womcn's clubs, instead of acting
directly with governments and cities
in behalf OF reforms should consci-
ously influence men and thus change
the whole currents OF politics and
diplomacy.

Secret of Love Found in Paris?
They're Going to Bring 1t Here!
Leaders of Dadist Creed,
Known as "Modern Adam
and Eve," Are Coming.

PARIS, April 21.-Celine Arnauld
Eve" leaders Of the Dadist creed of
converting the world into a paradise
of love. have arrived here after being
expelled from Switzerland.
They propose. they say. to go to
America soon to establish there a new
Garden of Eden. which will be their
headquarters for organizing propa-
ganda to combat Billy Sunday, John
d. Rockefeller. jr.. and others whose
theories Of Christianity they declare
to be absolutely wrong.
The proposed pilgrimage to convert
America Is compared to Brigham
Young's famous Odyssey to Salt Lake
City.
Here is what Celine Arnauld said
today about the creed which he and
Tiara represents
"The world ma. Just only been
born. 1t is the foundation OF Dadism.
which is based upon the conviction of
Tiara and myself that the world is
hopelessly wrong
WARS and peace conferences will
not remedy things: the only solution
ls simply to go back to the year l
and rebuild civilization. Like all true
prophets, we are prosecuted and de-
rided and called dreamers, fakirs, and
fools. but | affirm that Dadism Is the
sole true religion.
ut is the virgin mlcrobe whence
will spring an absolutely new and
perfect world within which there will
be no wars, no alcohol, no vice, no
despair, no poverty, no starvation, no
work, no marriage. and consequently
no dlvorce-only love.
THE proposition is simple: we are
determined to recreate creation"

The First Athletes.

The Greeks were among the first
to insist - gymnastics as part of
the early training of the child.
They acted on the principle OF "a
sound mind in a sound body" and
thus the moral training OF the
young was included in the physical
work carried on in the gymnasium.
At the religious festivals a feature
was made of public games, for
which the athletes were carefully
prepared at the expense of the
state. Swimming, wrestling, leap
ing and running were the chief ex-
ercises. In later centuries the at
tention paid to athletic exercises
decreased. but in recent years there
has been a revival in every country.

they get on fine. But I had plenty
to say against that-telling her
how Gertie Prentice and Lou Jensen
treated their mother-in-laws after
they had the sons fast and tight. i
just plum discouraged her, and if
she don't put a spoke in the wheel
of that early marriage it's because
I've lost the gift of gab.'
At this stage of her conversation
the lady, who had evidently not lost
the gift of CAB, departed from the
car. So l don't know how much
further her other gift of meddling
went. Nor do l know why she
meddled. Maybe she was a near
relative-a close friend-one who
had some personal reason for not
desiring Gerald's marriage to the
girl he's evidently ideRlized and
gone straight for and worked for
during five long years of his youth.
Maybe she has a daughter of her
own she's saving for Gerald. Or,
n grudge against marriage. Or an
objection to happiness.
But l fancy it's none of these
which were in the background Of
her consciousness when she inter-
fered and did her worst to spoil
the happiness of several people who
were contented and loving until
she came along to sow the seeds Of
dissension.
1 think the lady of the car is
just one of those all-too.frequent
and none-too- agreeable souls who
like to put their finger in any pie
in the neighborhood. A meddler. A
tinkerer with destiny. A profess
sional cream-sourer. A warped and
yet placidly self-satisfied destroyer
of happiness.
That's the worst Of meddlers-
they are convinced they're doing
folks a good turn!
