THEY BEAT THE DUTCH.
American .FIappors Are the Envy OF
4 Q vo,cndam Girls.

The people of this seaside village
have two sources OF income, fishing
and the tourists who come to see the
medieval costumes OF the Villagers and
comment on their adherence TO old
t.mc customs, says a Voiendam, Hol-
and disratch The men catch the oEe
alAl the girls the other For Vo!en-
dam it's bellies, and the old world attire
Of their forbears becomes them well.
But this year hundreds OF American
"flappers" have been among Volen-
cams visitors, and they have intro
dIced chaos. The local girls have not
been blind to the charms which the
svelte American girls seem 70 hold for
the young men of Nolendam, and it is
no uncommon sight to see Volendam
misses walking behind groups of
American girls, making vain attempts
to initiate the slouching, lackadaisi-
cal walk and blase air OF assumed
world wisdom.
The debutante slouch, the long
pointed SHOES Will FlShCii AISS1S, 'HS
short, scant skirts and the chic hats
have aroused the envy Of the young
Dutch women and created a panic in
the village which may cease to be a
great mart for souvenirs if its female
population begins to copy world fash
ion sheets.
The village elders are up in arms.
Trades are launched against the fol-
lies and foibles of fashion. The
lacemakers who fashion the quaint
white caps for women, the manufac-
turers who turn out the wooden shoes,
and the shopkeepers who thrive on the
quaintness of Voiendam- are conduct
ing an anti-faprer campaign.
OF course there are Dutch fappers,
but the Dutch girls generally have too
much weight to stimulate fashion
sheets successfully, and Dutch mod
istes lack the skill of American and
French dressmakers. So the American
girls and their extreme attire have
stirred little Dutch girls who were
never thrilled by the efforts Of the
girls of Amsterdam to copy the mani
kins OF I.orGchamps.

So the shelves were without the

Everyone - everyone - except Billy
Brownie. He had come TO visit
the library. He had hidden behind
n huge dictionary, when they had been
closing the library and looking around
TO see that all the readers had gone.
Sometimes readers forgot about the

But they had missed Billie Brownie.

He had always somehow wanted to
visit Il library after NIL the people had
gone. He had paid many visits and
met many friends and heard so many
secrets. but he had never been In
library after 1t was dark. and when
no one was in 1t.
Yes. he had paid many visits. He
had watched so mnny interesting
sights.
He had watched the birds rs they
learned to fly, he had seen how they
could go only little distance ut a
time. and how they had to try again
and again until they could really be-
come wonderful flyers.
He had talked with old Mother Ma
ture. Oh. Billie Brownie had had many
a marvellous time.
But now he was In the library. AMI
this was one Of the things lie had al
why's lOnged to do. He wanted to be
among the books all by himself.
He was not there very long when
there came n huge volume down from
the shelves. and he noticed that 1t
had spread out It's covers and was
walking awkwartlly about.

LEILA

THE original Leila must have been
"vamp." 1t Is distinctly a
Moorish name-in fact it is translated
To mean "Moerish"-and il was usually
bestowed upon the loveliest OF the nj.
ways beautiful Moorish maidens
In reality, 1t is generally supposed
to be one OF the feminine names de-
rived from the lily. AS the lily is the
fairest OF flowers. perhaps Leila as the
most beautiful of her tribe came thus
to be used as proper name. ETY..
biologists are frankly puzzled by her
origin, since it seems that only the
Hebrew and Slavonlc tongues give
names really taken from flowers.
But however that may be. and
though the lily is as difficult to trace
as the rose. it must still be contended
that Leila had her origin in the pure
white chalice of the most fragrant Of
all flowers. Liliola Gonzaga of Itaiy
was perhaps one OF lily-names which
preceded Leila. There was a Lilias
Iuthven in Scotland In 1867. The
Queen OF Naples about whom the
Scottish ballad OF eRoswal and In
lian'' was woven was named after the
lily and curiously enough, was called
Cecilia by the Italians.
Occasionally historians have Thought
that Leila and Lillian, and Lilias were
only contractions OF Elizabeth. buf
there seems little 10 bear out this con.
'ention, SO the lily must remain raisof,
detre OF all such names. Certainly its
heritage of beauty is well borne ont

the name. among them Lillian Russell.

REAL COURAGE

ITO be feared OF thing and vet do It.
Is what makes the prettiest kind or
man."-Robert Louis Stevenson.
IF You have read Kidnapped you
= remember the quotation. 1t was
spoken by Alan Breck. after the boy.
David. had stood for minute terrified,
on the brink of roaring torrent. and
then. still sick with the fear OF 1t,
leaped across.
TO Alan Breck. the leap meant little.
1t required no courage for him 10
make ii, for he knew very little fear.
But for the boy. who did the thing he
feared as he feared death, it was a
real act of heroism.
The only real courage consists in
doing the thing We are afraid TO do.
The hulking Prlze-fghter of the John
Sullivan type, who has as much imag-
nation as grizzly bear, is not brave.
He is sure he is going to win. 1t takes
no courage To go into winning fight.
The bully is never brave. In fact
he is always coward. Feeling sure
that his superior size will carry him
through, he picks Quarrels as pleas.
ant method of passing his time.
Put this same bully into the ring
with large hungry tiger, face him
with man who looks as If he enjoys
shooting DULLES as much as the bully
enjoys thrashing his physical interiors,
and all the courage ooZes out OF the
bully.
You will never know whether you
arc brave or not till you find yourself
in position where you are afraid 10
do something that ought TO be done.
If you do 1t. You have courage. II
you quit you have not.
Never mistake q physical willing
ness TO take chance, to attempt some
dangerous thing. for the kind of cour-
age that counts.
1t IS not brave but very foolish
man who walks a tight rope over
Niagara falls. 1t Is a brave man, who
not wanting to die, and knowing that
an operation may send him out of the
world, cheerfully goes to the table, to
take the one chance that may mean his
continued support of his wife or his
dependents.
Often the timid school boy, who
fears to quarrel, and tries his best to
keep his peace with his fellows, gets
the name of coward. But when this
same boy has to fight for what he
thinks Is his honor, or to save a little
boy from. a bully, he. becomes a very
dangerous fighter.
Real courage is not daunted by pain.
The boy or the man who fights when
he is afraid TO. Stops being afraid OF
anything, pain or d uiacis eye,r or pun
ishment. He fights because he has
! courage, and he usually wins.
There is more real courage in this
world than you fancy 1t is behind all
great achievement. If you have Ii,
| won are fortunate. But don't be sure,
either that you have or that you
haven't ii till you have done or refused
10 do something you were afraid to do.

Correspondent Protests At Religion
Being Brought Into Political Issues.

70 the Editor Of the EVcaiag Capital
Render unto Caesar the things
which are Caesars and unto God the
things which are Gods
This. which Our Lord spoke to the
Pharisees OF old. who. like the Phari-
sees OF today. wished to control poll
tics with religion, needs 10 be brought
10 the attention of the voters tomor-
row.
The Pharisees of today, who are
known as the Ku Klux Khan. have
brought religion into politics. despite
the pious statements of a Baptist min
lister of Eastport lately, who after he
had received sealed envelope from
some sheeted persons in his church,
made nice speech and. among other
agreeable things. said that the Khan
was opposed to union of church and
State. This. in the face of public
denunciation OF the Khan by the Fed
Grated Churches of Christ, who know
that the Khan is an effort of certain
Hrotestahts 10 make Protestahgism j
tsw OF the nation.
But, however bewildered people
may nc by the many conflicting things
which are said TO gain a purpose.
those who cen read English have
proof OF tho kind OF thing which is be-
ing done IN the name of Protests ntism
in the placards which are scattered
about preparatory to the election to-
morrow. found them on the Court
House door and in the streets Sunday
mornings They were distributed
Saturday. These placards read as fol-
lows:
Vote for the Protestant.--fo Sem
ate. Joseph Irwin France twho is run
ming on the Republican ticket for
Congress. Clarence NJ. Roberts twho
is running on the Democratic ticket :"
Notice it is not an appeal TO vote for
proper representative regardless of
his private religious belief. but be-
cause of his religion. Vote for the
Protestant, no other. and for no other
season' That is the insult which is
melted out TO the voters.
This will split up the vote in both
the Republican and Democratic party.
for certainly those who are not Prot
estants and those Protestants who are
decent Americans will teach this re-
lg'ous bigotry lesson If they know
about il in time before going to the
polls.
