cerned. Blame is not settled Some

INDIVIDUALITY IN THE HOME

NJ t<f - q F-zf =
On the subject of Individuality In
the home recent writer has this to
say: Individuality is as important to
a house as personality to a woman. A
room should be as sure an index to the
character and taste Of the person who
occupies it as the clothes she wears
or the books. she reads The truly in
terestiIg interiors are the ones reflect
ing in thousand subtle ways the gra-
cious personality of the occupant. A
favored color repeated here and there
unusual bibelots culIed from far
corners Of the globe-a rug that imme-
diately challenges attention-these are
the things that stamp room and rem
der 1t infinitely desirable. You are
all familiar with those interiors per-
feet to the last detail-every piece of
furniture Of the right period and in
the right place. and we all know how
uninspired they are and how difficult
to live in. Nowhere is the unusual

of Sir Walter Raleigh; today 1t is
nothing more than a farmhouse, but
surely worthy of preservation, If only
for its historical associations.
Raleigh's father, a country gentle

ABSENCE
By WILL M. MAUPIN


Low big little house can be
When all have gone away
And left no one at home but me;
! How dreary, grim and gray
The shadows are at eventide,
When lone and tired / come
And have no one to sit beside
Me when at last Tn home.
lThe hall seems leagues Of distance
wide, ~
Each room a vast estate; ss~
Dark forms In dusky corners hide
And terrors lie in wait. ss4sssssss-sa
Deep silence reigns, and over all
The lonesome shadows creep;
I list to hear a soft football
From out the silence deep.
No welcome laugh. no smiling face n
No eager, running feet
TO meet me as near the place;
No kiss from lips SO sweet.
A barren isle In widespread sea-; ~
A rock in desert wide: Scf
No hands that beckon unto me
Near home at eventide.
And yet, ere morning sun awakes
I feel b presence sweet;
Dream faces dreary fancy breaks
And bring Joy complete.
I feel the touch Of little hands,
See smiles Of childish glee;
And as from far-off Fairyland
My children come to me.
Ger low-flung hills and valleys wide,
Far from the city's strife,
Midst country scenes where joys abide
Are children dear and wife,, s.
So what care I II dark and drear
The cottage seems to be,
II brown and strong my kiddies dear
Soon hasten home to me!

MANAGE YOURSELF

n GREAT singer, who has to spend
about eighteen hours day taking
care Of his health and his voice, which
are his capital, needs a manager, and
has one.
A great actor, whose every minute
u required to continue being a great
actor, also needs a manager. -
We take it that you are neither q
great singer nor a great actor, because
you belong to the vast majority of hui
! man beings.
Therefore, while you need a man.
ager, too, you don't need to hire one.
You can be your own.
This Is true, whether you are your
own boss, or what the socialists call a
wage slave.
II you are wage slave you will
to some extent have to submit to the
management of the man who is set
over you.
But he can only manage you in
working hours, and he can't manage
your mind at all. And 1t is your mind,
and the way 1t Is managed, that will
make or break you before you get
through.
