Does he think, at his age, it is right?
If Ed. Wynn ever goes into the Noon
Pitchehs, we hope he'll have his
scenario written for him by Anita Loos.
The Ast1gmatism of tho Argus
[From the Mount Vernon ArgusJ
Editor Argus: Will you kindly advise
me through the columns of your paper the
author and title of the poem in which the
following lines occur:---
"Ships that pass in the night
And hail each other in passing
MRS. IDA CLARKE.
The quotation Is from '"rhe Theologian's
Tale" In "Tales of a Wayside 1nn," by
Tcnnyson.--[Ed1
Incidentally" says the Dutch Treat
Clubs announcement of this noon's
luncheon-and in it Secretary Reuben
P. Sleicher strikes the optimistic note
Miss Lowell is the second member
Of her sex to appear before the club.
We hope to have better luck as we pro-
ceed."
Tho Traffic Cops Honor Roll
Though firm and stern he seems to be
(His mustache bristles dignity),
My vote goes to that handsome bird
Who cops at Fifth and Forty-third.

So negligible in volume is tho new
lingerie that the fashionable shops
make deliveries to their customers in
ican.
Tut! tut! Old stuff! A lovely but
to be relied on authority tells US that
some lingerie actually is named in
honor Of the envelope.
The Joy-Removers
''Ycs-and that will dye so nicely
when you get tired OF that color"
"When that lace gets soiled you can
clean 1t in gasoline"
"Ncxt year you can have it made
over into"- N. H. B.
His "Oft in the Willys-Knight" may
haunt Orson, but ever since our receipt
Of "The Edge of the Jungle" by Will
liam Beebe, we have been singing, to
the destruction of what we in the office
here call the Creative Impulse, "Beebe's
books the silver moon, sailing on the
sea-"
THE DIARY OF OUR OWN SAMUEL PEPYs
December 3-To my BARRIERS to be
trimmed, and SO to the Armory to play
tennis, but conversed most of the time
with Mrs. Lynch; and so home and
took my wife to Mistress Beatrice
Kaufman's and thence to the train,
which she boarded with Mistress Lola,
and so with G. Kaufman and Juliet
Brenon to dinner, and so home, where
card game was toward, with fine
collation., and | win heavily, and glad
enough of it, too.
4-Early up, and watched the snow
fall for an hour, and then wrote for
few minutes, which exhausted me, SO
to see Hilda, and we had luncheon at
an inn, and with her to see Miss Edna
Ferber, and A. Boyden come and tells
US of the woe Of Central Europe, where
he has been for two years, and
should think the self-centered frivo-
lousaess of US all here and the slight
interest we take in the acute miserics
OF far countries would fill him with
despair and contempt. Drove Hilda
home and so back, and drove Edna
through the silver-treed park and left
my petrol-waggon in its home, and so
walked two miles with E., the pleasant
est walk ever l had.
5-All day at my Office, and so home.
Two more books have attained so
great popularity that their titles
generally are misquoted as "Girlsp and
Soldiers Three"
If any promoter succeeds In convert
ing more than four first-class lawn
tennis players to professionalism
there is no shadow of chance that he
will succeed-he will probably try to
have records, such as playing set in
the shortest possible time; and six
day contests.
Taking money for participating in
sport never improved the quality of
the output.
Observe our contribs' stuff.
