terical spree.
II certainly have tried to subli-
mate my love. 1 have not succeeded.
Would be grateful for more informa-
tion."
In every community are usually a
number of clever women who de-
vote endless energy to their pro-
LESSONS. Some of them are ardent
feminists who prefer a career to
marriage. Some scorn men. Some
doubt the permanence of romantic
love.
I have talked with some of these
women and they have frankly con-
fessed that there is always at the
back of their minds and underneath
their joy in their business ucces a
sense of loss, a residuum of disap-
pointment, of remnant Of hurt be-
cause they have missed love. the one
tremendous experience.
The musician quoted above very
wisely fills her days with absorbing
interests, yet when her mind is off
guard, the love instinct leaps up and
harnesses her, body and soul.
Sex-consciousness curses them as
it has cursed their forbelrs, as 1t
has cursed civilization.
Sex-consciousness can be con-
trolled only by one power and that
Is the human will. BefoI ; love can
be sublimated in n degree, there
must be the will as well as the wish
to take 1t from a person and apply it
to an occupation.

sat opposite me in the cafe and we
smoked and chattec a bit. And
Hutch told me the sad story OF his
married life"
"Oh, / see"
Nav. May. You can't see a little
bit. Listeni Cooley said his wife is a
sweet little girl all right, but tied UP
with her babies. She never talks
about anything but the kids and size
never lets him either. He told me
she can't understand a man OF his
temperament at all. She expects him
TO stick around home and help her
with les enfants nights when he was
entitled to a little diversion. He told
me she reads a lot but she amt low
ing. Cold he said And he ended
thusiy: Rose, you're older than me,
but you understand me Rose, you're
darn different from the others I've
met"
I dropped my grease paint. and
nearly ruined the front breadth Of
my kimono. Rose picked up the box
and continued:

Time. Ygdrasil. the great tree of
Norse mythology, within whose
roots and branches heaven and
earth are bound. Some say the
custom may be traced TO the Egyp-
uans who. AZ the time OF winter
solsiice, decorated their portals
with branches OF the date palm
The symbol Of life triumphant over
death.
An ancient legend OF the scandi-
navisns relates how the Christmas
tree owes its origin to the service
tree" which sprang from soil once
drenehed with the blood Of two
slain lovers. and how each night
during Christmas season mysterious
lights played among its branches
To this legend may perhaps be
traced our custom Of Illuminating
the tree when darkness comes.
Among the Greeks, Christmas Is
known as the feast of lights.
To people OF different localities
the term Christmas tree may mean

Chicago a shor: needle pine found

used. in Maryland and Virginia
