NEW YORK, Dec. 25rA page
from the diary Of a modern Samuel
Pepys: Up betimes and out in a
bleak wind to pay some little
scores and meeting H. McLaurin
and Mistress Aimes walked with
them to see d. Fairbanks, the
cinema player, and surprised to see
Of what short stature he is and met
too Mistress Mary. his wife, and
she gave us each a flower.
Alone to the Dutch Treat to hear
Amy Lowell speak but she did not
appear and so sat in roguish COM
pany. though full of wit. Away
again and nightly cried out by q
fellow jostled by accident and
thought all the day of cutting re-
marks I plight have made. one in
especially being very good.
In the afternoon lad came to
my chambers to inquire IL he might
practice on the piano and SO
strange story he told that I
questioned him sharply and it
came to me that he was a thief
albeit not more than IL and I found
him so to be by spying. yet l had
no heart to have him punished.
Dined at home on sausage and
cakes of buckwheat, very noble,
and at my labors and then in great
comfort prevailed upon my wife.
poor wretch, to read to me from
Q book Of poems. And so to bed.
Free days in the art galleries bring
out some strange people-surs-
ing with inward urges and subcon-
scieus subjectives and what not. 1t
has never been clear to me why a
man cannot enjoy a fine painting
without being the critical aesthetic.
viewing an Innes my thought is: "A
nifty picture" But those around me
talk of the improper action. the
feeling for space, wrong perspective
and the lack of color function. In
other words they appear to go to
the free exhibits with hammers to
knock. What the free galleries need
are more Pollyanna. .
Nine o'clock in the morning finds
NTH avenue filled with young
business women going to work
the typist, the secretary. the keeper
of business archives. At noon En-
ter Madame" on way to the lunch
con engagements and at 5 the flap
pers and their Berties on way to
tea But IL o'clock at night Is the
hour of thea dog. The avenue Is
hlled with them, from Pekes and
Poms to police dogs and Russian
wolf-hounds. The traffic cops have
gone for the night. and so muzzles
are removed and the CANNES find q
little freedom. A new note was
added to the assemblage the other
night by the presence of a huge
Persian cat on leash The dos
owners glowered at the owner
They seemed to regard it as a sac

The apparently successful settlement of the GEN.

OF the conference limitation of ornaments so
far as these nations are concerned has brought the
two great nations on more harmonious footing

there were riffs in the lutte. There were suspc-

Many OF these have continued Some have tended

lose sight of this Christian though,

"Heinous Is the sin committed

In the next election the Independent Lib
erals intend to put forward woman as thex
candidate in the contest for the Maryhil Divi-
sion of Glasgow. They have invited Mrs Bur-
nett Smith to stand, confident that, with the
reputation she won for herself during the war

prove formidable foe on the eectioneering
platforms AS all the word knows, Mrs. Bur-
nett Smith is, under the nom de plume Annie
S. Swan, the author of numerous stories of
great charm and popularity. If successful she

In the intensive education OF the American
Indian children the Board of Indian Commits
soners the solution of the rcd mans
problem. The view no doubt, is correct, and
too little emphasis has probably been placed
on this phase OF the United States Governments
activities in behalf of its wards. Sooner or later
all students of such situations reach similar con-
illusions. The steps that may now be expected
are, therefore, wise if not new. They should be
of character that will appeal to the Indian
as we'll as to the white man.
