dear. Always give your husband
the benefit of the doubt. If a
young woman, in the first years
of her married life, could always
think that the things that her
husband does-most of them
just happen, life would be much
easier for most of us. | do not
believe that the average man Sver
deliberately starts out to deceive
his wife, and the big woman is
the one who judges mans acts
according to their effect on his
own soul and character and not
according to the effect they have
upon her life and standing"
perhaps that's what Larry
meant just now when he SAID
that a young girl could not under
stand, but married woman
might"
What has Larry been saying
to you?" asked mother quickly.
"Oh, he has been talking youth
full nonsense Said he was in love
with the baby first and with me
second, and tried to make me
think that both of us would be
necessary to his existence for ev-
ermore. | told him that he must
not talk that way to me, and he
seemed to feel that he had paid
me a great compliment. He said
that he had never told a woman
before that he loved ner. l hau an
idea that he had chanced upon
an entirely new sensation. He was
very sweet and very youthful
about it, and mother l am asham-
ed to say that it interested me.

untrue to Hal"
"You must get over that, my
dear. Try to remember that that
chapter of your life is ended.
know that sounds hard, but my
child, you must remember that
you are alive. Unless you do, you
will not only be very unhappy
yourself, but yox will make others
about you unhappy. think some
times, that is the great fault OF
our sex. We are never content to
say, 1T is ended We are always
wanting to go on and on a little
further even when we know that
it is impossible"
Mother, do you really think
that Larry has fallen in love with
me?"
Possibly he has; you are very
fair to look upon" 70
Surely. mother. it can't be true
Why, he has never seen me be-

No More DeIaV!
Alien Land Bill Should Be
Passed at Once!

THE TEXAS SENATE and the Nebraska house
have passed bills prohibiting the ownership of
land by aliens ineligible to citizenship In each in
stance these bills aimed specifically at japanese
invasion.
Shall the state of Washington, with this menace
already upon her, be more backward in such legsla-
tion than these eastern states?
The anti-alien land bill is before the legislature. 1t
should have been voted upon before this. Powerful
influences are at work TO kill the measure II is no
secret that influential members Of the Chamber Of
Commerce, learned ministers, and other prominent
citizens have sought to pigeonhoe the bill. No doubt
they are of the honest opinion that the business inter-
ests Of the state may suffer. That however, is
tirely matter of opinion.
The bill before the Washington legislature does not
discriminate against the japanese, but affects all
aliens alike. In that respect it is not as dscrimi-
natory against Orientals as are the Nebraska and
Texas bills.
All that is sought in the householder bin is to en-
force provision already in our state constitution.
Why should there be so much opposition to that?
Thirty years ago, when there was no Japanese
problem, Washington was progressive enough to see
ITS interests clearly by inserting in its constt
ton the provision that aliens shall be allowed to
hold lands in this state
Since that time, the Japanese have come here and
by various subterfuges To prevent these subter-
fuges the JonesBeeler bill is brought before the
lawmakers.
To oppose the bill is to say that the japanese have
right to evade distinct provision in state
sttution. To kill this measure is to say that the
japanese should be permitted to acquire property by
artifice from which they are barred by our present
law.
The legislature, for its own self-respect should
bring the -Beeer bill to vote Immediately. 1t
ought not permit ANY alien element to make a
laughing stock of the state constitution.
