! refer to the mother theme.
For mother is not only the oldest
it is also the newest word in the Ian
guage.
1t strikes little deeper note in the
heart of men than even wife.
The woman who bore him lies lust
bit closer alongside a mans ever
lasting soul than any other man o..
woman can creep.
It's nature.
It's the cryptic cogcncy of instinct.
It is the unanswerablc argument Of
blood
For any other person can let You
go if you are bad enough, but your
mother can not lot you go.
She stands by.
You may nout her and forget hor
outrage and mistrcat her. but deep
in her soul you can never he any
thing else but her baby.
She never forgetS you as that won
derful little life that grew in her
body, and lay on her breast, helpless
in her arms
We can forget, and do, those who
have done us favor. but we can not
forget those who have called out our
fercest fires of love and sacrifice.
There is a story heard told the

and has been done in song. but old W
new, sung or unsunC, it's a piercing
story Of tragic beauty.
It is of man who had become in
fatuated with an evil woman who
was very comely. So great was her
beauty that the man was mad over
her. And he swore to her in the en-
ccss Of his passion that for her there
was nothing in the world he would
not do.
Then the evil-hearted woman sml-
cd, in her lust for power, and pro
posed horrid test, so that her pride
might be stated by the acknowledgement
she could make man do anything.
"1f you love me so much" she
said, "prove it, by bringing me your
mothers heart"
So the man. insane from the heat
Of his infatuation, slew his mother.
and cutting out her heart ran with
it to the evil woman.
And as he was running, and car
rying the heart of his mother in his
two hands, it happened that he
stumbled and fell.
And as he fell the heart cried out
and said:
Have you hurt Yourself nv bov? ?"

speech in which he assaned the Repub-

ably on legislation proposed by the Ad-
ministration.
"People declare the time has come
for change in our national govern
ment," he said. ~ heartily agree with
them The change in question, which is
more vitality needed than anything else
for the good of this country, is change
in the personnel and control Of the
Congress. Give us a new Congress and
there will be change enough to suit
everybody"
Mr.. Roosevelt said the waste caused
through division Of responsibility and
duplication was Outrageous"
"In the matter of the navy, for in
stance" he said, few peopla, think
about the fact that there are actually
four navies. There is the navy under
the department of the same name; the
coast guard, under the Treasury De-
partment; the army transport service

Paper Clothes Examined
ByCrowds at Pulp Show
Sample Suit Is Dark Blue
and Appears To Be
Durable

Paper brokers and wood pulp manu-
facturers exhibiting this week at the
exposition of the chemical industries
in Grand Central Palace insist that the
manufacture of paper clothes is an in
dustry with a great future.
The Paper Mill and Wood Pulp News
are exhibiting in their booth on the
fourth floor sample suit made by a
paper suit manufacturer in Neenah,
Wis, which looks like fair compet-
tor for the product of cloth. The suit
which is claiming much interest from
visitors to the Palace, is extremely
light in weight, dark blue in color
and to appearance very durable. At a
short distance one easily mistakes it
for suit Of tweed.
The Department Of Commerce in
Washington has been interested in the
possibilities of manufacturing suits
from paper.
Clothing manufacturers have argued
strongly against their introduction in
this country. They have been charac-
terizcd as impossible" "a wild dream
and "a joke" Imagine a man dressed
in paper suit" one clothier is re-
ported as saying. walking down Broad
way. in an April shower! Do you get

Mrs. BOrda Denies
She Is Mother of
Child Called Son
Action Taken to Prevent
Husband From Teaching
Lad TO Regard Her as Par
emit and Change Record

Mrs. Avice Weed Borda, at present
residing in the summer society colony
at Narragansett Pier, r. l., through the
law firm of Dorman e. Dana, brought a
novel action in the Supreme Court
yesterday in which her husband, Wen
ceslao j. Borda, a lawyer, living at the
Hotel Imperial, is one of the defend
ants.
Mrs. Borda denies the parentage of
boy born on November /, 1917, at
1863 West End Avenue, which birth was
recorded at the Board of Health as be-
ing the child of Wenceslao. J. Borda
and Avice w. Borda. 1t is to have the
official record set straight and to pre-
vent her husband from teaching the
child, now nearly three years old, that
she is the mother of the boy whose
parertage she denies that Mrs. Borda
has enlisted the aid Of the court
-. Thee Bordas were married in New
York, in 1907. From 1908 to 1916 their
home was in San Juan, Porto Rico, and
since then Mrs. Borda has made her
home at Narragansett Pier. The child
upon whose motherhood Mrs. Borda
throws a doubt was born in 1917. On
December of that year DR.. Ira L.
HILL who attended at the birth of the
baby, acting on information he believed
to be true, filed with the Board of
Health a record of the birth, with Mr.
and Mrs. Borda the father and mother,
respectively
Denying that she is the mother, Mrs
Borda applied to the Supreme Court
yesterday, asking mandatory injunc-
ton to compel her husband to reveal
the name of the mother of the child
and to restrain him from teaching the
boy, who bears the name Of Wenceslao
J. Borda jr., that Mrs. Borda is his
mother. Mrs. Borda also seeks to COM
pei DR.. Hill to correct his birth report
and to direct the Board of Health to
remove the present record of the birth
of the Borda baby.
Mrs. Bordas first husband was Will
lam Spracue jr., son of the "war Gov
ernor' of Rhode Island. He obtained
divorce from her, and she was married
to Colonel Gerrit Wheaton, who died,
leaving his widow wealthy. Mr.. Borda
was her third husband. He formerly
was Consul General in Porto Rico, and
she lived with him there from 1908 to
1918
