"And what have you been DO
ing child?"
For the first time since mad
known Theodore Stratton l looked
I'M directly into his eyes. They
were open wide and divested OF
the little network of wrinkles
that had so fascinated me when
I had dared to give him a casual
glance before. To my surprise !
saw that his eyes were not the
liauid brown that l had imagined
but a slatey color, like the stone
you sometimes see in old houses
that on rainy, cold days looks
ever grayer than it is.
Today they were the color OF
that stone when the warm sun
falls full upon 1t! Brown shining
through a little warm glow. They
we're the most beautiful eyes
had ever seen.
My whole soul was on my lips
as he caressed me with his glance
| told him my impression of every
one and everything that the day
contained.
He did not answer, but let me
babble on, and got the impress
sion that anything l said was ol
particular interest to him.
Every movie fan knows Theo'
dore Stratton. The secret Of hi:
popularity is that he can project
upon the screen that air of seem
ing interest and understanding
of everything that Is going or
about him while keeping perfect
ly still.
One has only to imagine thai
interest and personality, multi

T. EDISON ON POKER

WHAT would you do if Il well dressed
" stranger in n poker game sat with a
pat hand and bet quarter, while you had
only three eights and $40 in all the world?
Thomas \. Edison, desiring to test your
knowledge and character, wants to know.
And 1t appears that Mr.. Edison is either
kidding yCu or kidding himself. since DOS
sble answers to this most moving ouery
are rs various as the souls and purposes
OF all the strangers that one may meet in
the course of lifetime
Had Mr.. Edison named Henry Ford as
the player with the pat hand an answer
would be easy. Mr.. Ford would bet a
quarter. even If he had a royal flush And
he would continue to bet quarters until he
had all the credulous and acQuisitive players
into the game rs deep as they could 20 and
live. Then he would lift the ante a mil.
lion or so. If, on the other hand, the man
with the pat hand were Vice President
Coolidge. wise opponent would give him
n battle and. Of course, Mr.. Coolidge would
withdraw.
Mr.. Edison. and lie seems to know some.
thing about the game would hive To he
handled differently. He might take one
chance and risk quarter on a bluff. The
thing to do. therefore. would be TO raise him.
II he didn't yield at once the man with the
three eights and $40 would be wise to desist
without further labor. For If Mr.. Edison
didn't quit after betting two whole quarters
one might be sure that he, as the saving
goes, had them.

READY FOR ECONOMIES

MIR. PINCHOTS committee or board Of
AVA inquiry il expected to have the as
sistance Of all the departments in Harris
burg from which It seeks information.
The purpose Of the inquiry. rs Mr..
alinchot has clearly pointed out. is not to
find evidence to convict any one. 1t s
purely TO assemble such information as will
enable him to recommend II sounder finan-
cial policy for the Commonwealth.
1t is generally admitted that this policy
in the past has not been sound. But
whether 1t was admitted or not, the unfor-
tunate position in which the State finds
itself today is sufficient proof that there
have been grave mistakes.
PENNSYLVANIA is rich enough to provide
MI the money that IS needed to carry on
its government. to provide ample funds for
the maintenance of tho schools and to build
system Of splendid highways without bur
dcnsome taxes.
\ business like study Of the methods that
have been used. the methods Of raising
money ms well as the system of spending it,
ought to point the way to II sounder
method
Mr. Pinchot IS wise to call TO his assist
nn," group of representative men and
women commissioned to ascertain the fnctS
and to recommend reforms. The informa.
tion will be ut his disposal long enough be-
fore he takes Office his election is morally
certain--for him to dges, it thoroughly and
to frame his own conclusions about what is
best to BE- done. So when he makes his
recommendations to the General Assembly IN
January they will be the result of careful
thought and not the product merely of an
amiahle impulse.
If he should 60 so far as ,N urge n reOr-
ganization of the departments in Harris
burg, the consolidation of burcnrs and tho
abolition of commission. he will be doing
only what the situation demands. The
Woodward Commission. APP ointed by Gov
ernor Srroul. has been making an inquiry
into the need of reorganization and it has
gathered considerable data. As Senator
Woodward has accepted place on Mr..
Pinchot's committee, this information will
be available to the other members.
There is no doubt that the general senti-
mcnt of the State is in favor of such n
wholesale reorganization in Harrisburg rs
Governor Iowndes made in Illinois n few
years ago. reorganization that resulted in
ab'lishing scores Of dnp'icating and need
less commissions and bureaus. and in great
economies in the cost Of government. The
only serious objection will come from job
holders and their friends. but they dare not
profess in public what they practice in pri-
vnte. for the assumntion that government
exists for the profit Of the iobholdcrs is not
ono which can rroftably be talked about
openly by its adhcrcnts.
