Doris found it difficult to focus her
attention upon the concert. She had
no ear for lassical music, in the first
place; as a second consideration, she
was distressed to know what attitude
to take during the intermission. How
ever. her perturbation was groundless,
for Harvey Gatewood solved the prob
lem by excusinS himself to his sister
with murmured explanation about
"a smoke"
Juliet promptly slipped into his va
Gated chair. giving Doris an impudent-
ly mischievous glance over her shoul-
der. She presented Miss Gatewood to
her sister-in-law and then plunged
into a vivacious and absorbing con-
versation. When Gatewood came back,
the only vacant chair was the one
beside Doris.
After moments hesitation and a
glance toward Juliet's apparently un-
conscious back, he seated himself.

constrainedly.
Flushed and embarrassed. Doris
shook her head.
Nobody ever minds what Juliet

smile.
"She is rather high handed
young woman" returned Gatewood,
embarrassedly conscious of the in
anity of the conversation.
Have you known her long?"
inquired Doris. feeling the need to
say something.

wager" he grinned. I'VE took our

FRANCES.

Freedom Is the significance OF
Frances, the name which Is used
interchangeably with only one let
ter's difference as a masculine and
feminine proper name. 1T is derived
from the Teutonic "frei," but, curl
ously enough. made its first appear
ance in a near approach to its. pres
ent form in Italy. where the son Of
an Italian merchant became so nu-
ent as a French scholar that his
baptismal name OF Giovanni was lost
to sight and he went by the term Of
I'll francesca" (the Frenchman). 1t
was this same youth who later was
canonized and founded the order OF
the FRANCISCAN brotherhood.
The first feminine form OF the
name was the title of the unhappy
lady whose doom was so exquisitely
told by Dante in his romance OF
"Paolo and Francesca" which Is one
of the great love. stories Of litera-
ture. San Francesca di Roma was
devout housewife OF great popular
ity in Italy and in 1900 there was
FRANCHISE Of fame at Cambria.
Frances came into being through
Mary Tudor, who, in honor of Fran
co.'s !, King of France, and in mem
ory of her own brief rule on the
throne of France, chrlstened her
first child Frances. She was the
Lady Frances Brandon who es-
tablished the name in the Tudor
court and made it forever popular
in England.
Francis and Frances were both
used as feminine names without dis
tinction in those days and Frank
was the diminutive bestowed eX-
clusively on English maids. The
wife of the Duke of Richmond was
so called and history recalls that
the Duke would subdue her naughty
pride on occasion by saying: Frank,
Frank. how long is 1t since thou
vast married to Prannel," thus re-
minding her of an early elopemenr
with a vintner. Lady Fanny Shir-

edly Frances.

Gossip has long been classed
among the seven deadly sins. and
especially as the besetting sin Of
woman from which she should pray
heaven to deliver her.
Now there Is gossip, and gossip.
There is the pleasant little title
tattle about our friends and neigh
bors which IL nothing more than a
daily chapter of the human comedy
which adds immeasurably to the
zest Of life. 1t Is women's faculty
for collecting, and disseminating
this that made Stephenson say that
the first qualification of a good
wife was for her to be a good
gossip.
Certainly society would be a dull
affair IL we should all refrain from
our favorite indoor sport Of talk
ing about our neighbors. When we
get down to brass tacks, We are
all far more interested in the things
that happen in our block and to
the people we know than we are
in momentous events that take
place thousands of miles from us,
and that involve people Of whom
we have scarcely heard.
Sorry as we were for starving
Belgium, IT did not send us scurry-
ing for food as did the knowledge
that a child had tainted from hun
ger on our door step. We are more
Mortified to hear that our char
woman's ceiling has fallen on her
head and bruised her baby than we
are to hear that 10000 people have
been swallowed up in an earth
oct hril IN u
reports that we got of the great
war were those that told OF the
regiments from our own town, and
we visualize the heroism of battle
through little Jimmy Jones, who
used to deliver our papers, and who
was awarded the Croix de Guerre.
OF course, scandal-mongering is
another affair. 1t differs from the
innocuous chatter of new babies.
and new cooks. and new bonnets,
and the little daily happenings in
our circle, but while too much can
not be said against the gossip that
turns rumors into facts in the tell
ing, and that blackens innocent
characters with vague suspicious,
il is still not to be denied that even
this sort of gossip is not without
it's use in the general economy.
and is one of the sins that make
for virtues side.
For, as a matter of fact, there Is
no other such effective agency for
morality on earth as is gossip. 1t Is
the fear Of our neighbor's tongues
that keeps many of US in the
straight and narrow path, and holds
US up to our duty.
Before, they say" we are all OF
us arrant towards. 1t is the knowl-
edge that everything We do, and do
not do, is going to be observed, and
freely discussed among our acquain-
tance that braces us up to live the
higher life in order that their COM
ments may be. favoreble instead OF
otherwise. For. it is their praise
that makes our fame. and their
blame our disgrace.

1t has been said that 'in images

DR.. Deutsch is so we'll known to,
and so popular with, the readers
of the American Jewish press that
it is entirely unnecessary to say
anything in commentator of the
man and his work in the field of
scholarly Jewish journalism, and
especially in the popularization
and rational Interpretation of
Jewish history. If it was ever
true that "the style is the man"
it is eminently true of DIR.
Deutsch. He is a scholar, which
means he is in pursuit of exact
knowledge, and possesses a great
fund of it, especially in his chosen
field, Jewish history and litera-
ture; he is a clear thinker, and
you cannot escape the logic of his
conclusions. Yet withal, there is
nothing pedantic about him. God
has given him the saving sense of
humor, a not very common en-

We cannot think of anything
that can just now more effective
1y counterfeit the malicious lie

liar and others of his stripe are
spreading about the Jew than the
beautiful screen picture of HUI
moresque shown at the Lyric
theatre of Minneapolis. Begin

stirring song Eli, Eli, which in
few beautiful harmonies con-
denses Israel's tragedy and Isra-
els faith during two thousand
years, sung by a double quar-
tet of artistic singers, who at the
same time, amidst appropriate
settings, represent the wander
ing tribe" the picture first shows
a bit of the sordid East Side Ghet-
to life, with it's poverty and din
giness relieved by a few touches
of its humorous and pathetic
elements. It is all the result Of
the tragedy that Eli, Eli sums up.
Soon the essential theme of the
picture, a Jewish mothers bound
less love for and pride in her
talented son is brought into the
foreground, and the story of the
musical prodigy, who becomes a
famous violinist, enlists in the
army to fight for democracy, is
wounded, loses the use of his arm,
and then RECEIVERS it as if by
miracle, is shown in pictures and
scenes that impress themselves
indelibly on the mind. The fond
mother cannot see why a musical
genius like her boy should enlist
and stake his life on the battle
field. The Jewish boy Leon Kan
tor, like tens of thousands of 9TH

from various centers show greatly

1t is interesting to note that the
weakest points i'll the strike terri
tory are those places which were
damaged by the great forest fire

The musicians and The movic-opcr-

with the operators because of the

affiliated with these unions.

By CHARLES ASHLEIGH,
Special Correspondent, the Federated

Duluth, Mimi, July 1O.-The
lumber strike in the north, which is
now over two months old, appears
to promise a long and hard-fought
conflict. Something of the nature
of deadlock, would describe the
present situation.
Owing to the immense territory
over which the sawmills are scat
tered, the strike shows varying
phases, in accordance with local
conditions. 1t must be understood
that this is strike of mill workers,
essentially, and not of the lumber
camps. Unlike the Puget Sound
lumber territory, the Minnesota,
Michigan and Wisconsin woods are
hardly worked in the summer.
The strike was called and is con-

by forbidding it's members to work
