until ten or half past ten. Please
say that it is healthy for girls OF
my age to stay up until ten, and

ANSWER - Little girls under
twelve years Of age require not
less than 1011 hours of sleep every
night, particularly in school time.
So If mamma does what l say Doris
will hit the loathed hay at nine
o'clock sharp, no matter if other
girls are regular nighthawks. Ten
solid hours of sleep every night
makes little girls healthy and hap
py and bright. After the age OF
twelve years it would be all right
for mamma to let you sit up until
$3.50 in winter and 10 in vacation
time. Children under seven re-
quire twelve hours Of sleep every
night. II they do not get it they

The board Of directors OF the Chicago Grand
Opera company has, after months Of artistic
and business grief. come to the conclusion that
a woman is better fitted than man to fill the
position Of managing official of that organiza-
ton Accordingly Mary Garden has been
called to fill that post, and she has accepted.
And Mary lets it be known that she is conf
dent that she will be successful director. She
is to have complete charge. both in handling
the business and artistic ends Of the enter
prise The man whom Miss Garden succeeds
said that he had been driven almost to dis
traction by the quarrels Of the singers and he
was glad to be relieved.
Mary Garden 10 internationally known as q
singer and actress. but she has yet reputa-
ton to establish a. director. The Chicago
the wealthy people of that city. They do not
aim to make profit from their performances.
In fact, they are satisfied il they succeed in
going through season without meeting large
losses. They are lovers Of good music and
they are anxious that the people Of their home
city be given opportunity to enjoy the operate
masters. Presumably Miss Garden will con-
tinue to be q member Of the companys singing
staff. For several years she has been the star
of that aggregation. One famous songstress
who had been cast for the leading role in
Carmen" a few weeks ago disappeared from
| Chicago with the assertion that she had been
insuted by Miss Garden. In her reply Misa
Garden didn't call the other lady liar, but
she did deny that she and the lady had had
any misunderstanding. So there you are.
Miss Garden has an extensive following in
| Chicago as singer. She Is woman whose
artistic abilities are not to be questioned She
| is also known as an artist who has been accus.
toned to having her own way. The public
will be interested in Miss Gardens experiment
At least she is to be admired for her courage
Everybody will hope that she makes good.

Where's Walter?'
The old man addressed shaded
his eyes with his hand.

The young man turned and came

Nearly six weeks the boy had
been with them. He had wandered
into the yard one morning in the
early fall asking for work. Who
he was or where he came from he
could not remember. He was phy-
sicaliy we'll, but his memory was a
blank. He had served in the war
that much he remembered. Also
that he had been i'll. very ill. They
had brought him to America and
had discharged him from the hos
pital as cured. But quite suddenly
on his way home Darkness had
come over his mind.
In\ some way OF another all
things pertaining to a possible
identification had been lost. The
Tuttles had taken him to their home
and heart, showing great tender
ness for the nameless lad.

him, after her own son, who had
died in infancy. The old family
doctor had done all his skill could

Of the senate for dsfraying the cost Of festivi-
ties that have marked induction into Office OF
former presidents. In fhe years previous to
the incumbency Of Mr.. Wilson the Inaugural

down against any such display, and he had his

made elaborate. first to crafty the ambitions

Mr.. Harding has never betrayed craving

him that he will properly represent his country
at state social functions that may occur dur
