the advnace Of the city. He thought
the great need of the town at the
present time was the building of a
hospital, and he was satisfied that ii
could be done if the people would all
get together and determine that they
wanted it. Mr.. Blease assured Mr..

Can't you postpone it?" asked Tom. These three girls would prob ably have a fine time together And we three men might take in a ball game if that appeals to MT. Haldane and you. Jimmie.''
 Sorry said Jim firmly and with out consulting my preferences. "But I've arranged for the weekend, and I can't change my plans, as they in- volve my friends, the Cosbys.''
 I bit my lips to keep from pro- testing. I didn't want to go for a holiday with people who'd make me feel a second fiddle when I could be with this group, where I was treat ed as a person of consequence But I wouldn't assert myself and exploit the jealousy and pride l long to con- quer.
 Shortly after that our evening broke up- As Mr. Haldane drove us home I had to postpone discussing with Jim the things that were on my heart apartment I plunged eagerly into a resume of what Tom had said about Sheldon Blake.

 You can see that it might be true?" said Tom, taking up my phrase as I let my wits go a-moon- ing. But his next words brought me back to the here and now. Shelly doesn't care what happens to people. He's irresponsible and lovable. And | and Virginia and she was divorced, do you think he'd marry her? Not he She1ly's boyish sweetness may be the casting vote to turn her against old Pat. who's a man. But it hasn't any real stuff to it-it won't protect her against the world.''
 Do you think a weak1ing could appeal to Virginia?" I asked.
 Why not?" asked Tom. and his eyes held mine 'fWomen do care for men who aren't worth it."
 ''Is Pat worth it?" asked.
 'I wish I were as worthy he re- piled, and then his hard, cynical eyes softened 1mmeasurably, and he got to his feet to welcome Irma and Mrs. Hill back to the room.
 I've had a. splendid chat with Donna Anna, but you two girls look as if you'd had such a nice visit you've no need to envy us."
 Mrs Hill has promised to have lunch with me Saturday" said Irma Warren in great delight. Please, Mrs. Harrison, tell me you can come, too. I wish I dared interrupt the chess game to tell Uncle how happy I amt is so splendid to feel that Pm making real friends in this big, strange city"
 Tom and I exchanged glances of enjoyment over the dear quaintness of her. It was refreshing to realize how much joy this young girl got out of the prospect of having a white haired old lady as her luncheon guest.
 "Checki" sounded MT. Haldane's voice.
 -Four moves and you have me. I'm off my game, sir. Would you take me on as a pupil?" replied Jim, with out the high excitement other gam mes-ga gambHng games"give him.
 This was the cue for MT. Haldane to insist on a return dinner And Irma Warren got into a pretty pink hutter of excitement over her two engagements. But at mention of the luncheon Jim shook his head

Wife Of Banker Declares Women HdUe Feeling But
 Are Shy On Intelligence

NEW 1Okk, July 2O.-N oman, the home maker, tends the hearth. She keeps her domestic fires burning with a true, steady glow. She care fully sweeps away rubbish and will not permit the firelight to go out.
 But often woman. the wanderer, the wanton, passes by. She peeps in at domestic harmony. Ah she, too will enter to take warmth and com fort at the fires kept alive, in fact, put into being by the woman who dwells rightfully within.
 The intruder fans the flame. De struction follows. Homes are razed and hearths blackened..
 And no wife may aspire to cope with the passing flatterer. The true wife does not fawn upon nor offer idle compliments in order to get some favor. She often must tell un. pleasant truths.
 Her views upon this phase of mar ried life were expressed strikingly by Mrs. Anne Urquhart Potter Stillman, when she gave an interview at the home of John E. Mack, in Pough. keepsie.
 MAINTAINS HER coMPosURE
 Presiding at dainty tea table on the front porch of the Mack resi-, dence Mrs. Stillman, who has been bitterly and publicly attacked by her husband, James A. Stillman, never thelcss maintains her composure and is able calmly to discuss her opin- ions.
 "You know she began, mo wife can hope to keep up with the woman who flatters. A wife wishes her husband to amount to something. She must often-to that end-tell him the truth"
 Seen face to face. even in the strong and revealing glare of the afternoon sun. Mrs Stillman seems to have none of the tired and disillu- sionad look that is faintly suggested in some of her photographs. No trace of makeup has contributed to her fresh and blooming appearance. \ little fatiguod from the long hear ing in court during the hot midday. she nevertheless graciously consents to talk over matters just little more.
 The flatercrs measure the amount of affection to display by the size of the emerald in view" she smiled amusedly.
 Discussors sit silently, for the most part. attentive to every word from this amazingly girlisflooking woman who is a wife and mother and upon whose slender shoulders an all. too heavy burden has been placed.
 Mrs. Stllman perhaps understands the psychology of clothes her attire lis well adapted to produce cheerful ness of spirit and the poise which comes with perfect comfort A loose blouse of white linen, with a gay tie of satin about the throat, tops a plaited skirt of red and white, and snowy sport shoes, with white silk stockings. She wears some small plain gold bracelets on her slender wrist and a heavy gold chain about her neck

The Cordova daily times., 1921-07-20
WOMAN IS THE INCENTIVE

Woman has coached and aided man and pushed him along. To her all progress is due" Mrs. Stillman contiues.
 The real woman puts those she loves ahead Man has a little the best of it at present, even though men are not able to get around wom- en as easily now as formerly Sons used to get around their mothers. and later on they got around women who love others more than themselves.
 "I blame the system under which he was raised" Mrs. Stillman is now referring to the husband who would repudiate and condemn her If his father had only brought him up right!
 About his home there was the old fashioned secretiveness-ao love, af- lection or recognition of the part these emotions play in life-no knowledge of their proper place in our existence.
 Such people don't appreciate just how real these things are-how real to other people.
 Environment does a lot for chil- dren. Later, when character is formed. they leave the homeland meet the w6rld-as competent indi- viduals.
 EVERYTHING DEPENDS ON HOME
 Everything depends on the home and the interest the parents have in their children.
 But the whole trouble with women now is that they are three-fourths feeling, one-fourth intelligence. They should be half feeling and half intel iigence. They need a better rudder, which such a perfect balance would give them.
