MARBLES
By DR.. Frank Crane

This is a day of sports.
The average man is tired of international
politics and of the boreSome problems of re-
ligion and public welfare What we are in
terested in now is baseball, horse racing and
long distance running.
The other day John O'Connor, who had been
entombed overnight behind fan of over a
thousand tons of debris, was rescued from a
mine in Bargoed, Wales. The first question
O'Connor asked on reaching the surface was
slow did Ireland and Wales get on yeSterday?'
referring to the football match at Swansea be-
tween the Irish and Welsh teams.
There is also story of man who died and
went to heaven. When he reached the gate St
Peter asked him where he came from. He re-
piled that he came from Chicago.
"What time did you leave?" asked St. Peter
"About O'clock said the man.
Whereupon St. Peter eagerly leant forward
and inquired, "What was the scorer"
In this condition of the Zeitgeist it would
seem about time that more attention was paid
to the game of marbles.
Marbles probably occupy more thought in
these United States during the early summer
months than any other one subject, and the
newspapers are shamefully negIectful in the
matter of giving us due information concern
ing the game.
They tell us about tennis scores, and golf
matches, and horse races, and even bridge
games, but all these things interest only grown
people, who will all be dead in few years,
anyway.
Why is it that we have no information about
Bud Hopkins, the champion marble player OF
the Third Ward School, who won comedians, 3
agateS, chinaS, IL whites, and IS commies from
Bill Kelly and Fatty GrubS last Saturday after
noon over behind HeadleyS Barn? Fifty boys were
present. There was great enthusiasm and six
fights. The preachers boy, Wilbur, licked the
butchers son, Charlie Goldschmidt, because he
said Bud Hopkins cheated Wilbur only lost
one TOOTH but that had been loose anyhow
Then there was the exciting game over in
MiddleSworth's Barn after school on Wednes-
day. 1t almost resulted in race war, as
Cicero Brown, the colored boy won the game
Better counSelS prevailed, however, and trouble
was averted; although it was whispered among
the sports on the way home that Cicero had
Judged.
No attention is paid in the papers either tc
the fact that the commieS sold at HardcaStle'S
grocery are bumpy Teddy Johnson tried tc
return those he bought and to get his 10 cents
back, but old man HardcaStle refused
The subject is an inviting one and items of
interest are multiplied
Willy Smith has flint with twelve hicks
in it.
Isidore Stumsky lost big crystal down the
sewer hole.
And SO on.
We submit that in the interest of true sport
more attention should be paid to marbles.

TO SUCCEED GREATLY
By H. Addington Bruce

" o succeed greatly, strive greatly. Tha'
is the one sure means of making ones
- dreams come true in the world OF
business life.
And 1 say this though we'll aware that
many are of very different opinion.
Many openly or secretly incline to the be-
lief that chance counts for more than earn
est effort. Many think that still more i'm
portant than chance is the factor Of personal
connections and influence
pull is the thing is the way they colo
quialIy voice their belief ga man cans
get anywhere unless he has the right kind OF
backing With that, anything l. possibleA
even to those who don't half try"
Obsessed with this pernicious notion, not
few workers spend more time intriguing to
win favor with the ''boss'' than in attending
to their work. Others, convinced that the
claw of favoritism" will never operate In
their behalf, that they need never hope to en-
joy "the right kind Of backing" cease striv-
ing to advance.
whats the use Of toiling like a slave?'
they dolefulIy demand. Zone might as well
content ones self with getting by. When
promotion time comes somebody V it'll drag
is sure to win the price,"
Now, it cannot be denied that conditions
in certain business establishments give color
to this sad view.
But such establishments are becoming
fewer and fewer with each succeeding year
For, more and more clearly, business heads
are seeing that "to play favorites'' is to risk
weakening their organizations to point
where they cannot possibly withstand bust
ness competition.
So that it is none too venturesome to pre-
dict that the day is not far distant when pro-
motion on merit alone will be the rule in
virtually all business concerns. It Is we'll
nigh the rule already.
If one could study the promotion records
in our railroads, banks, mills, factories, de-
partment stores, and business establishments
generally, 1t is safe to say that for every
promotion attributable to pull hundred
or more could be found due to merit.
It would be found, in fact, that even in
many an instance when chance or favoritism
seems to have governed, real merit was pres
emit also; and that, when real merit was not
present, the 'lucky accident" or the 'per-
sonal influence" lid not suffice to keep the
unduly favored one in the place to which he
had been advanced.
Always, or almost always, the earnest
workers are the ones who soon or late win
to the top. "Dogged does it," Those who
accept this doctrine, who make Of them
selves earnest workers, great strivers, will
some day experience for themselves it's truth

The Wounds of a Friend

~ NE rubs ones eyes In bewilderment
I upon reading in that ancient and hon
orable defender of Republican faith,
the Boston Transcript, that today the Grand
Old Party sis woefully wanting in leader
ship at either end of Pennsylvania avenue;"
that it is "house divided against ITSELF"
and that New Englanders may be more Re-
publican than they are Democratic, but they
have both the intelligence and the courage
to vote against their party when their party
ceases to serve the nation or to keep it's cam
paign pledges"
Well might Senator Henry Cabot Lodge
exclaim as did Dame Quickly to Ancient
Pistol, "By my troth, Captain, these be bit
ter words" But the Transcript smites high
er even than the eminent senior Senator who
gazes ever more wistfully into the seeds of
time as election day draws nigh. "a strong
leader in the White House, it AYERS, might
have been able to bring his party to sense
of responsibility. (Impious! impious!)
Whether Mr.. Harding is unable to supply
strong leadership, or whether he is awaiting
the psychological moment is still a matter
Of popular debate. CA jot of mercy for the
shorn lamb) But the popularity of the Ad-
ministration is the wane. eyes, yes.) The
ringleaders of the Republican House, how
ever (Ringleaders? States men, you were
wont to say, dear Transcript boast that Mr..
Harding's easy-going acquiescence in their
trespassing upon his prerogatives suits them.
No doubt it does, but it does not meet the
hope of thousands Of Republicans and DEM
ocrats who voted the Republican ticket at
the last national election" If this be trea-
son, make the moss of it!
Only heart long trimming with woe
could thus have uttered itself. Vainly and
long must the faithful Transcript have
searched Gilead for balm, ere it unburden-
ed it's grief. The times are too much for even
its stalwart bosom, what with the overwhelm-
ing Of Senator Harry New in the Indiana
primaries, and of Representative Copley in
Illinois, and Of Republican worthless far and
wide. The cloud once no bigger than mans
hand is waxing fast, and prudent Noahs
hasten to their arks.

Judge Beverly D. Evans

7 the passing of Judge Beverly D. Evans
Georgia loses one of her ablest sons, and
one of her most beloved. From earliest
manhood he served the State with high-heart-
ed devotion and with ever-deepening wisdom
Before he was twenty-five he was elected
from the fine old county of Washington
where he was born and brought up, to the
Georgia House of Representatives. There he
revealed talents at once so shining and so
substantial that few seasons later he was
chosen by that body, then charged with such
matters for the solicitor generalship of the
Middle circuit. In that office likewise he
manifested unusual powers of mind and char
acter, with the result that after four years,
when he was only thirty, he was made Judge
of the circuit Rarely have honors weighted
with responsibilities come so thick and fast
to youth, and more rarely still been borne
with equal strength and grace of modesty.
1t was in 1899 that Judge Evans, with five
years Of experience on the bench, came to
his memorable career in the State Supreme
Court, to which he was appointed by the
later Governor Terrell. He is said to have
written during his service on that honored
tribunal more than one thousand decisions
numbers of which stand out as miestones
and landmarks in the Commonwealth's jul
dicial history. With wealth of learning and
broad keen insight he combined an extra
ordinary gift for terse and luminous express
sion These figured largely in his selection
by President Wilson for the judgeship of the
United States court of the southern district
OF Georgia, in which high trust Judge Evans
rounded out his useful and splendid life.
Grievously sudden as was his going when
length and vigor of days seemed to lie rich
ly ahead, yet he lived so fully so achievngly,
so heIpfully that in the thought of thousands
who honor and love him a light of golden
completion broods where his spirit paused
and passed from labors done to starry courts

| According to the Japanese legend the Sun
| Goddess became offended with her brother,
and in high dudgeon retreated into cave,
thereby plunging the world in utter dark
ness. In despair, the other gods and god
desses tried in vain te lSre her forth until
one, more inventive than the others, devised
a mirror which he hung on a bush in front
| Of the cave.
The curiosity Of the Sun Goddess made
her come forth to look at the strange object
and when she beheld in it her own face she
was so enraptured with what she saw that
| she stayed to gaze upon it, and never went
| back to her cave again. Thus to the magic
or the mirror do we owe the happy fact that
| the light OF day never fails us.
| Also, the Sun Goddess set a precedent
which women have never tired of following,
| as the most doubling Thomas and Thomasina
can have proved to them by observing that
no woman ever passes mirror without stop-
| ping to look in it, and that ninety-nine wom-
en- out or hundred carry portable look

! draw out from time to time so that thew
may refresh themselves with a reflection of
| their own lineaments
This feminine mania for mirrors has ever
been considered great weakness of women
| Sat1r1sts have gibed at it. Moralists have
preached against it, but the truth Of the mat
| ter is that women do not. look in mirrors too
| much, they look into them too little.
what we need is more mirrors, not few

fetal provides contrast. At the Army and
Navy reception, not long ago Marshal Joffre
and Madame Joffre joined the receiving
line, along with the President Mrs. Harding
and the Secretaries of War and Navy and
their wives. The Marshal was clearly pleased
with the compliment extended him, but after
little more than an hour of constant bow
ing, smiling, and hand-wringing, he and
Madame Joffre surrendered to their weari-
ness and dropped out Of the receiving line.
The others in the line still had half the
evenings work ahead of them.
The White House Is the Mecca Of delega-
.tfons~to Washington, but Congress and the
Capitol would put up stiff fight in popu-
larity contest. 1t is the statesmen and the
historic features of the Capitol VIII CHI most
interest visitors. Unless some bill of unusual
interest is being debated, five minutes in
the halls of Congress are about enough for
most visitors.
One elderly woman safely out of the
breathless gallery atmosphere of the august
Senate, remarked that time was certainly
more plentiful than money with those dron-
ing statesmen. After this commentary on
the speed of the Senate, the delegate
squeezed into crowded elevator and audi
bly, planned to "get in the museum Mt. YER

NIT that it's inadequate assembly halls were
no attraction to conventions. The small and
middle-sized halls about the city have some
times failed to expand enough to accommo-
date all the delegates and visitors to an I'M
usually popular convention.
The D. A. r. hall, for instance, never holds
all the Daughters who would like to attend
sessions at the same time. Yet it was the
largest suitable hall available for the i'm
portant disarmament conference, and conse-
quently few outsiders were able to gain ad-
mission to any of the historic sessions.
Plans are under way now, however, for
an auditorium which will seat 5000 people.
The new auditorium building is to be thor
Oughly modern. Since the Willard Hotel ball
room, on the tenth floor, caught fire the
other day, there has been strong agitation
for first-floor auditoriums in Washington.
The new assembly hall will be on the first
floor, with an exhibit hall beneath, partly
below grade level. This building is to be To-
Gated opposite the Interior Building, three
blocks from the White House, and ground
will be broken for it next month. With an
adequate convention hall, Washington be-
lieves that nothing will stand between it and
the title of Americas convention city.
