WHY factors Hate Cats"

Speaking at the International Wom-
ems Franchise club in London. Miss
Horniman. the English theatrical man
ager, told some. entertaining stories OF
theatrical experiences. Actors can
stand a good deal, she said, but they
hate cat. for they know that as long
as It is on the stage the audience can
look at nothing else. Miss Horniman
had some amusing stories of the
Gayety cats. Trixie. who was killed
on the scene Of her public triumphs by
the fall of the safety curtain. once
spoiled the last act Of "Hindle Wakes"
by getting under table where the
actors could not see her, but the audi
ence could. and cheerfully pretending
to chase a mouse. Then strOllinG
across to the stage fire, she turned
from 1t with disdnin and settled her
self for warmth among the footlights.
Another cat intruded Into q quiet
scene Of tragic farewell and led the
short-sighted lover on futile chase
among the overturning furniture.

SHAFT IS WELL PROTECTED
Washington Monument Made Immune
From Lightning by Scheme That
Has Proved Its Worth.

The apex Of the Washington monu-
ment is surrounded with parallel
bands. The bands are studded with
golden points. The bands are made OF
gold-plated iron foot wide. and
the points are spaced foot from one
another.
According to the original plan or
the monument It was protected from
lightning by an aluminium tip that was
connected with the metal framework
Of the elevator. During the very first
summer after the monument was COM
pleted. however, 1t was struckftyice,
and piece Of stone was Clipped from
the top.
Experts from all the scientific de-
partments Of the government were
called on to contrive plan for the
better protection Of the shaft. They
agreed on a number of iron hands,
heavily galvanized and gold plated. to
prevent rusting.
The bands are connected with the
aluminium point of the monument. and
the framework of the elevator, and at
the base iron cables lead the electric
ity into deep well. where 1t harm
lessly- expends It's force. The protec-
ton has proved to be perfect.

LIVE UP to- THE CHILDREN
Writer Condemns oId-Fashioned Idea
Of Repression and Stern Punish.
rnsnt for Trivial Offenses.

IL seems to me a great mistake to
"live down to" children. They are
capable Of understanding and respond
Ing to deep and fine thoughts and feel
ings. Never from the first did we criti-
cize or humiliate our boys in any way.
We gave them credit always for the high
and right motive. and suspended judg-
ment till they had told their side. But
II they were wrong they were not pun
ished. The fact that they had fallen
below what had been expected of them
was punishment enough. A certain
standard Of conduct was thus estab-
lished that they longed always to real
lie. They were able. even then, to see
the beauty of certain qualities and the
ugliness Of others. 1t was lovely to
see them trying to conform 10 the hab-
1t In the household, of unfailing
courtesy and unselfishness and re-
straint. They often failed. They often
showed their temper. 4 But they grew
to be more and more ashamed of their
failures.
Character cannot be built from the
outside. Coercion does not make for
strength-only for compliance. That,
1t seems to me, is the great mistake
some parents make. They exact obedi-
ence when they should instill princi-
pie. Inspire! That is the better word.
Then the child will have an inner
light to guide him. compass to steer
him to certain goal.
When the guiding hand is lifted, so
many are left with no deep convic-
tions-principles to shape their des-
tiny-but impulses. They may be good.
they may be bad. as life plays upon
their emotions and desires. To trust
to them for guidance Is like going out
upon a stormy sea in a tiny craft at
the mercy Of tossing waves and wind.

FARM EXPORT BILL
Takes Stand Against Plans
to Put Government Directly
Into Business.

The Norris bill. creating the Farmers

He explained the difference between
the proposed corporation and the ex-
isting War Finance Corporation, saying
that If there should be anything done
along the line proposed in the Norris
bill. 1t should be done under the War
Finance Corporation. There Is no need
for two corporations to do similar
things in any event. Senator Lodge
said.
Senator Lodge said that he real
lied how severely agricultural inter-
ests have suffered in this country re-
Gently because of the operation Of
economic forces. He said that no leg
islation could prevent the operation
of those forces. although legislation
may mitigate the results

LONDON, July 21.-It Is understood
in official quarters that Great Britain
considers the dispatch Of more troops
to Upper Silesia unnecessary and Inn
possible, and that all the facts with
regard to Silesia already are avail
able for the supreme council. AT the
same time 1t Is heid to be unneces-
sary to summoay coVmittse OF e1-
perts, as has been suggested. to pass
Judgment on the question OF the ST.
lesian boundary.
Lord Curzon the secretary for for
eign affairs. recently sent note 70
Paris suggesting that a meeting Of
the supreme council be held in Bou-
logne, July 2s. Prior to the dispatch
Of this note it is understood Lord Cur
zon held a conference with the French
ambassador here with regard to 81
lesia and other matters pressing for
solution by the supreme council. and
that the foreign secretary outlined the
necessity for q meeting Of the coun-
Gil before the end of July, especially
as Premier Lloyd George might not
be available II later date were
chosen, as he possibly would then be
in Washington attending the dis
armament conference.
"Silesia has showed every other In
ternational topic, into the back;
ground" it was said in a usually well
Informed quarter. 1T Is the one Ques-
tion receiving the consideration of
the European governmental heads. All

q. s. NOT TO INTERFERE.
Upper Silesian Situation Not Re-
garded as Changed.

Changes in the Upper silesian situa-
tion have not been SO marked as to
cause the United States government
to consider Intervention. The informal
suggestions which 1t was reported in
London had been made that the United
States intervene have not reached the
State Department., but it was clearly
indicated that they would not be
likely to alter the administrations
policy.
When Ambassador Harvey was
designated as the American repre-
sentative on the council of ambassa-
doris he is understood to have been
instructed not to take part other
than that of an observer when Silesian
affairs were discussed. The United
States government explained inform
ally that it could not be expected to
join in discussion of questions that
were peculiarly European, and, 1t was
indicated, the Silesian question was
regarded as falling within that cate
CORY.
It was suggested. however, that II
might possibly assume q character
that would cause the United States to
regard 1t as one warranting American
attention, but recent reports from ST.
lesia and from European capitals
have not convinced the United States
officials that 1t is anything but q
European problem.

Constant rumors of liquor snug
Cling off Long Island sound have

few weeks, officials said today, but
as yet no official reports of actual
violations of the law have been re-

in Washington today. declared that he
had instructed all coast guard sta
tions on Long Island to Investigate
thoroughly the rumors of smuggling
and have cutters in readiness to pro-
coed to the scene of unlawful activity
should it be discovered.
Rumors of smuggling, he said,
reached the coast guard offices from
many sources. Recently. he explained,

as the rumors he brought, came into
his Office and declare dthat smuggling
was going on every day on Long
Island sound. but for the love of

he had no civilians to send. but he
had government cutters ready for any
