stopped and kissed her.
Never lived a woman who did not
feel sorry to see girl stripped of her
illusions about life and love.
And had chung to the romantic. be-
lief that a man and a woman, mar.
ried or single, can be friends, and
happy for long in casual, platonic
way. The thing cannot be.
Ann had begun, quite innocently
by accepting Wan as a very desir-
able and helpful friend: she had end,
cd by considering him as much her
exclusive property as her husband.
Here endeth the lesson for her as
for many another thoughtIess young
woman.
Yes, it was all very modern and
very horrid. Just as her selfish in
difference to Jim was horrid.
1t was so like Ann to risk her life
to save drunken derelict from the
Jail conflagration, and to ignore
Jim's need of her More than once
Ann had reminded me of ''Dwightie'
in Miss Lulu Bett." Dwightie de.
lighted in brow-beating the women of
his own family, then proceeded, plac-
idly and complacently, to be sweetly
kind to the aged grandmother next
door.
l pushed Ann gentle toward her
duty, then l kiss her. How could
so young a girl k.3-y that certain
kind of man cheats always, in love
or in friendship?

FAln Paul Van Eyck, and at once
One morning when her invalid
husband asked her to read to him,
Ann put him off impatlcntly. She
must shop for some wells and hosiery,
and then see Van about the second
act Of their play.
Outside of Jm's room, | ventured:
ooh, Ann! The most astounding
news! Van has suggested to Mar
tina that she divorce%hcr husband in
order to marry HIM"
The fact that Van mad made this
outrageous proposal to married
woman didn't shock Ann at all!
The big shock was to her own
pride. She preceived that her bobbed
locks, her ingenuc smile, her flapper
manners had lost their effect.

had shared the ennuided Paul Van
Eyck in it's meshes. The dignity OF
the business woman had robbed the

leel a nome, and to smell the aroma
of good hoecake and fried chicken. Il
linois, too, has a song which is widely
popular. 1t took the ditty Baby
Nine" and found a melody not
strong, but singable. 1t owes its
popularity chiefly to the REPETITION of
the state name.
A bill is now pending. as | under
stand, before the Iowa legislature to
adopt certain words as those of the
state song. If the single stanza
which ] have seen is a fair sample,
the legislature will do we'll to make
haste slowly, 1t is very easy to pass
a law making a particular song a
state song, and is not easy to get rid
Of 1T afterWard, no matter now IN,

None of cur state songs arc AIDE
quatc.
Maryland, My Maryland is a
song of the Civil war, and breathcs
i spirit which no longer represents
the sentiment Of the state. II was
frantic cry to Maryland to rise and
rebel against the federal government
for permitting troops to pass through
Baltimore on their way to Washing
ton. 1t was written April 26, 1861,
by James r, Randall, a native of
Maryland, then i'll Louisiana, and
published in the New Orleans Delta.
4 week previous, a Massachusetts
regiment passing through Baltimore
aad been Tired upon, and a number
Of soldiers killed. The fire was re-
tUrned, and several citizens were
killed or injured. Some. of those
killed were members of the mob, but
some were onIookers He wrote in
wrath:
The despot's heel is on thy shore,
Maryland!
LIS torch is at thy temple door,
Maryland!
Avenge the patriotic gore
That tlecked the streets of Baltimore,
And be The battle queen Of yore,
Maryland. NJ Maryland"
1t requires no argument to prove
shat that appeal no longer represents
the sentiment of Maryland. 1t IS
not a wholesome song for school
children to be taught. 1t stands, a
true watermark of wartime feeling,
and there is no occasion to apologize
for it as such; but it is not worthy
Of the Maryland of today. Maryland
needs d new state song that looks
forward and not back.
Kentucky's song has no such bel
ligerent associations. 1t is one of
Stephen Fosters best songs, written
for Christys Minstrel show, and is
gentle and popular. But the vicis-
STUDIES of an old colored family, los
ing their home under foreclosure of
mortgage or like domestic calamity
is not an uplifting theme for the
song of a proud commonwealth.
"The sun shines bright on my old
Kentucky home,

Illinois has its state song:

But it is not enough for a STAT

Here is where the state song Of

the name has a fine meaning. When
the white men first turned their
canoes upstream from the Missis.

asked their name. The answer was
"llllnl." That was not only the
name of the tribe, but of the river,

That is a name worth while, and

Says a Face in the Home Is Worth Two
at the Photographers.
BY John p. Medbury

A photograph gallery is a place
where you go to get your picture
taken. The guy tells you the pic
lures will be seventy.five dollars a
dozen. and then asks you to look
pleasant.
You tell him to make the photo
graph look an much like you as pos
sible but all the time you're hoping
he won't.
They're responsible for the pic
lures but not for your face.
II you're very homely It's q good
Idea to let somebody else pose for
you.
One woman got insulted because
the photographer told her to keep
her mouth closed or she wouldn't
She wanted speaking likeness.
Her husband said IL wouldn't be a
likeness unless II was speaking.
A woman always has to keep still
while she's having her picture taken.
No wonder the husbands take their
wives to the photographer 30 often.
II she gets fresh with the photog-
rapher he'll get even with her by
making the picture look like her.
Women are funny. ,If the pic
ture doesn't look like them they
don't want to pay for II and II II
does look like them they want
their money back.
The Washington times., 1921-08-24

The safest way Is TO get photo
graphed In a crowd.
When you're posing for a picture
you are supposed to sit still and
look the little birdie right in the
eye. Remember. it's just as tough
on the bird as 1t is on you.
Some women haven't got time to
visit a studio. They figure that u
face In the home Is worth two Mt
the photographers.
Some pictures are taken for
friends, some are taken for rela-
tives, but most of them should
never be taken at all.
Every face isn't what it's
painted to be.
Photographs don't lie, but for
two dollars extra they can be ex-
aggerated.
One man got a look at himself II
the mirror and brought suit
against his folks.
But photographers rush in where
beauty parlors fear to tread.
One woman went into a studio
and said, II want to get some pic
lures taken the worst way" The
photographer told her to look
natural.
Some people send pictures to their
friends so they won't forget then.
But you can barrow fifty dollars
from them and 1t III have the same
effect.
