 We have much simpler explanation in which there is subtle psychology. The trouble was in the persons of the drama. They were both the wrong kind of people, and their marriage if it had been consummated would have been failure The female could have had abiding respect for the male whom she had pursued and captured, and cer- tanly the male could for the captor.
 He was the wrong kind of in the first place accept the woman's savings and he was a very foolish sort of a allow himself to be put into the position of sponge at her home.

THE PAGEANT OF PROGRESS
ev DR. FRANK CRANE Copyright. 1921. by Frank CraneD

The war is over The madness is past The world is getting well.
 One of the most striking proofs of this is the Page ant of Progress which Chicago intends to hold the first two weeks in August.
 As you might suppose it is going to be the biggest tnlng or Its kind ever seen Chicago could hardly
 It is to be held on the vast S5, 100000 Muncipat Per- which uts out 5000 feet into the lake and will bc world. here will be 31a miles of exhibit booths
 It will visualize the progress of industry, science ana cvliizatlon In way never before seen
 It will bring to Chicago more visitors than ever came together in city in any two weeks period in all history Tom Hay, for instance President of the Chicago Automobile Trades Associations plans to bring 100000 automobiles to the Pageant from outside of Chicago.
 There will be the usual exhibits only more amaz- ing than ever.
 It will emphasize humanitys genius for construc- ton as the war emphasized it's genius for destruction.
 Among other things will be shown the manufacture of clothing, from the wool the sheeps back to the most intricate garment the history of fur clothing from apper to wearer the story of food, from the grain fields to the oven the progress in health and the that have been taken to increase human efficiency pub lie utilities showing how gas electricity water and heat from central plants have replaced the taow cade the fireplace and the old oaken bucket; the infinite de- vices of office, including bookkeeping machines, typewriters card indexes and the ke besides which there will be immense chOrlses, naval manoeuvres, baseball games, airplane races, and so on. | The American people will get together and cele- brate as they know how Perhaps the most interesting part of the exposition will be the Automotive Depart ment under the direction of Mr. C. s. Rieman in which will be shown by series of models all the steps in the progress of transportation from the oxcart to the fly \ ing machine.
 For, after all, civilization is measured in terms of transportation What ails the life of the world and the business of the world is provincialism stagnation, coagulation. From thence all hates, tariffs ] and wars.
 It is fitting that this exposition should be held in Chicago, which has been called the largest young city Q and the youngest large city on earth ! Chicago is without doubt the most characteristic American city Situated in the very heart of the

 eabiss Need Attention
 The doctor was so convinced of this that he could no longer bear to see babies sent away to institutions In- stead he secured permission from the hospital and took them home to his wife. who fitted a nursery up for them on the top floor of her house upon them until they once more showed an interest in life
 From this informal beginning the present Alice Chapin nursery at 3100 Lexington avenue here. grew It consists of II rooms. with a roof gar den. fitted up scientifically for the care of babies. but carefully avoid ing the atmosphere of an institution. AS far as possible the baby is treat ed as an individual. He has his own pIaythinss: he gets his share of car esses from his nurse, and he is flat tered and amused
 There are only two nurses for the eight babies. however. which Mrs Snd Rtk t0DcA4EtS nAAt41&aB <otA< thinks 1t would be better if there were only four babies to each nursery unit.
 For we have found" says Mrs Chapin. that even with a nurse tc every four babies, they begin to pine and their progress Is slower after they hava>been here a month or more What each baby needs is a home, and frequently the baby has just as muct influence for better health and hap piness upon adopted parents as the, have upon him. The baby is gratefu for his good care. and repays in hap. piness. Frequently one of these | adopted babies will save a neurotis woman from illness by giving her ar interest in life.

NEW YORK CITY, May so.-An interesting novelty in foreign impor- tations is being introduced in New York this season. It is pabics-Biit- ish babies-carefully selected and free from all home ties, ready for adop- ton in childless American homes
 They come in both sexes and in both blonde and brunette colorings, so that the would-be adopter has variety from which to pick his favor ite baby type. Each Is a beauty as beauty is defined in babyland, and IS guaranteed to be under one year cld. All are bargains. No such infants could be procured for adoption in this country. In fact. it Is becoming in creasingiy difficult to find any American babies at all that may be adopted wholly and legally. with all rights reserved. That is why they are being imported from England which has a surplus supply.
 They are being brought to this country through a cooperative ar rangement with the National Adop- ton Society of England and the newly formed British American Adoption committee of this city. The first Is infants, accompanied by doctor and five nurses, arrived on one steamer several days ago and were distributed evenly among three NtW I Oik ddOPtAOh HUI SOi lN'f ated with the committed. All of these I5 are now bespoken, and the com mittee has cabled for another supply.
 As soon as it was learned that the babies had arrived, the nurseries were besieged by scores of eager women. some in fashionable limousines, some on foot, some married and some not. each trying to persuade the nurses in charge to give her one of the young sters. Even while the infants were getting used to their new cribs and the fascinating. bright colored pie lures on the nursery walls, their fates were being decided in the front of- fices Most of them, we are informed. are to go to families who are socially prominent in New York and will doubtless inherit considerable wealth when they grow up. But the British baby is not necessarily snobbish. He does not insist upon wealth; but merely a good comfortable. home, where he will receive excellent care and the personal attention and af- lection that all babies require
 Large Demand for Babies
 That there are plenty of such homes only too anxious to adopt in- fants is shown by the large number of requests received every year by the adoption nurseries in New York

EXPECTING THINGS Bv Dr.. William E. Barton

A postoffice in a certain southern state, so am told counts the regular daily visit of coored citizen who the end of his days work, comes by and asks the postmaster. more commonly his wife, Good evenin. Mis- Burgess, is they any letter for me?'
 NO letter this evening. George she answers. and he goes home supper.
 He has received letter. and there is no one known to him from whom he would be likely to receive letter, but he always inquiries.
 If the of the old darkey and the name of the postoffice which this story relates would write him good. long letter. Unfortunately. do not know; and the story may not be true.s And yet suspect that it is and that it be true of more than postoffice.
 I think it unlikely there several places in the United States where lonely people who get no mail live in hope that some day they will receive letter. I hope every of them will be discovered by good friend who will write at least letter every such expectant person.
 n any event, such person is just a little more likely to get letter because he expects it. And if it postoffice he will be there get it. which is an important part of the business of receiving letters.
 I believe in expecting good things There is a proverb which Blessed they who never expect anything for they will be disappointed I do not agree with it.
 There is at least thing than being where one ceases to hope. When hope dies in there is much left of him to bury
 Therefore, I believe in expecting good things The man who expects nothing does nothing and deserves nothing. The who hopes for good things is very likely to do something to promote good things.
 Keep expecting the good.

IMPORTED INFANTS

requests that can't possibly be filled by the meager supply of babies turned in by the city hospitals. The many founding asylums are crowded with children, of course. but not the kind that people want
 The average person who wishes to adopt a child" says Miss Clara B. Spence, secretary of the new adop- ton committee. desires a baby rath- CT than a half-grown child or even one three or four years old. Sweet, innocent little babies, less than a year old. are extremely difficult to ob- tain. Owing to the rules and red tape connected with founding homes. it is impossible to find a home for ba- bies unless they conform to certain religious denominations
 Tn England there is an oversupply of babies who may be adopted and full surrender given Many people who have lost sons in the war in Eng land have taken babies into their 1 homes but still there is an oversup- ply. and since our list for children for babies not older than one year cannot be supplied from this country we are turning to England
 One reason for the oversupply of English babies is the fact that the adoption laws in England are moi favorable to adopting. There a child may have but one guardian and ar adopted child cannot inherit proper ty. while in America the legally adopted child is an heir just as any other member of the family

Let All Live

May 30. 1S21- Dear Editor of The Republican,:
 often clip form your editorials some of the good things you say. admire them However. there are some things in the editorials with which do not agree or feel they are out of place or not sufficient. But we are all human.
 As I answer my mail today I find one of May 22, We and Others You very appropriately call attention to our duty to the need of the suf- fering and unfortunate ones of our city. This is good But in the close you call attention that the -church people should as they are exchanr ing salutations inquire of the eases or suffering in their communities and decide to do something about it. The point l am after is why the at- tention of church" people alone should be called 10 this. Why did you not also say the picture show people. the dance people. the lodge people and the clubs? If you knew the statistics. feel assured that vol, would find that the church people do more than any other people for the needy At our churches we are con stantly reminded of those things am, the church people are sacrificial con- trfbutors to the work of charity The church of which I am a member the First Baptist, is now contribut- ing about ss0O annually to support aged and sick members. it donates freely to all foreign relief calls. and Is constantly drained for funds for the various needs of the sick and poor of the community. I could cite numerous instances that no public notice is given Of them This church raises a large fund for it's outside ! mission work and the mission port, of the world. amounting to about, s much as it's local expenses. Otasr | churches Of various and. I suppose. | all denominations are doing likewise. | The call for aid is almost inyaria bly turned to the churches. It is right they do this. but why not the plea sure resort people be called upon for | these things When they do anything for charity it is usually in the form of purchase of some form of plea ! sure or feasting for which they get a return More generally these so- called charity affairs are for the pur- pose of advertising the pleasure re- I sort or swelling the receipts in some indirect way. True charity is the giving without receiving anything in return. Why should we be bribed T to give to the needy? think S.s. T will also find that most of the givinf is done by the people Of moderate means for whom it is a sacrifice tc give. Let's put the pressure Of the worlds great need on those able t- meet the demands. Yours for q better world.
