Musings for the Evening
Stay Home, Jerome

Stay Home, Jerome
Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte
Would have fairly ambitious start
Upon the road to eternal fame,
Wearing most historic name,
If he'd be yanked from the social
shelf
Direct relation of Nay himself,
That nineteen century bugaboo,
Who kicked the bucket at Waterloo),
And would accept the Albanian throne
With crown and scepter all his own.
A prince of Gotham society,
With due regard to propriety,
Might we'll be changed to a Balkan
king
With a rhinestone lid and everything.
A young Park avenue man of parts,
Well yersed in politics and the arts,
A diplomat of high degree,
He'd knock them dizzy across the sea
For one who has gained New York
success,
To be king is a cinch, we guess.
His name belongs to the regal chart
Jerome NAPOLEON Bonapart.
Natives would drop their liverwurst
And YELL "Hooray for Jerome the
First!"
They'd greet him with an admiring
shout
And wonder what it was all about,
And go on milking their mountain
goats
And manicuring their pigs and shoats.
And trimming the tourists out of hand
Who came from their monarch's native
land
They'd not refuse to accept the chink
On fellow-citizens of their kink.
They'd serenade up on spaghet and
beans,
The astronomical mania
OF all the cooks in Albania.
There'd be no opera, not Ritz,
No nobby tailor with swagger fits.
The population they brag of there
Could all be herded in Union Square.
They've not advanced to a point, as
yet,
To, boast Of younger married set"
For the Adriatic, you'll never start,
Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte.
Light travels rapidly, but they are
building some of the movie theatres
so large now that man in a back seat
doesn't see the picture until five min
utes after it is flashed on the screen
Undecided
An eastern health expert is urging
that we adopt the European method of
greeting-embracing each other in
stead of shaking hands. He says that
handshaking is dangerous to life. We
might be willing to compromise with
the gentleman-let those of like sex
shake hands and those of opposite sex
embrace. Still, we do'no. That would
require taking to the woods pretty
often.

After Dinner Trick S

A feat of apparent dexterity is to
place the end of a strip of paper on the
edge of a tumbler. and balance a coin
on top. The trick is to remove the
paper without disturbing the coin.
1t is done by giving the paper strip
hard slap at the middle, which jerks it
out from under the coin without the
latter losing its balance.

Our Friend Mary Again

Mary had little lamb,
Its face was white as snow,
And every place that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.
1t carried home the butcher meat,
The sugar and the tea
Mary was the missus,
And the little lamb was me.

ATTORNEYS SQUABBLE OVER

New York, June 3-Away on their
second respective honeymoons, Ar
mour Ferguson and his ex-wife, Mol
ly, now married to William G. Nc
Adoo, son of the former secretary of
the treasury, today left it to their
lawyers to fight out the question of
whether Ferguson should continue to
pay the alimony awarded Mrs. Nc
Adoo when she was granted her di-
vorce last November.
The McAdoos were married May
90 and Ferguson's counsel contended
his client should not be forced to pay
ralimony now that his wife was re-
married. Attorneys representing the
plaintiff retorted that Ferguson
came into court with "unclean hands"
as he remarked in Connecticut three
days before his former wife.
Decision was reserved.

al results in connection with legisla-
ton, and political policies. Withopt
a convention of the party there is
is no opportunity to formulate any
plan to develop any public sentiment
to create any interest or any en-
'thusiasm for the party, and the re-
suit is lack of interest on the part

general welfare, and a disposition on
the part of the people to devote their
time and thought in public matters
entirely to their community and
county affairs-to the total neglect

have so many problems to solve, SO
much to do in order to help the read

get them back to normal since the

an our own state, the state of
Florida, we should reform our taxa
ton system, by having our constitu-
ton amended so as to have a CLASH
fled tax system instead of the gen

have. We should also develop our
good road building program and at
the same time do something to put
our schools on a better basis, SO that
our teachers will be better paid and
the profession of school teaching
will be more attractive to our young
men and young women, and our
schools will compare favorably with
the schools of the other state. Tax
alton, education and transportation
are the three problems of a domes-
tic government, such as the govern

our party the democratic party,

get the people thinking about con-

JANE COWL APPEA RS IN DUAL Role
Which BroadL0av Approved Of Some Time Ago
BY WALTER d. HICKMAN.

Miss Jane Cowl brought "Smilin'
| Through" to the Murat last night for
three-day engagement. The per-
formance last night was not the first
presentation Of the play in Indianapolis,
as Mr.. Stuart Walker presented 1t at
the AIurat last summer
l went to the Murat last night real
izing one fact-that the edge Of expec-
fancy Of seeing the play was not as
keen because I was familiar with 1t
after seeing Mr.. Walkers masterful eff
forts in producing "Smilin' Through"
last summer
1t is unusual to have the original star
bring a play into a city after 1t had
been done by other players. This seldom
happens In q theater and 1t impresses me
as poor showmanship. When a play has
been released for stock presentation, the
impression generally is that the original
star is through with it,
Judging by conversations I heard In
the theater during intermissions there
were quite number present last night
who saw the Walker production. Miss
Cowl on her first entrance, got 1ust a
ripple Of applause. She took one curtain
at the end of the play.

Mr.. Walkers company presented it in
masterful fashion at $3.50 top price.
Miss Cowl is charging So top at night
I have stated a few facts and they
are significant facts. The recital OF those
facts are not a reflection upon the abil-
ity Of Miss Cowl because she gives
magnificent performance. The argu-
ment may be advanced that Mr.. walker
has repeated in a season a play pre-
scented in q former season. That is true
