diate friends. To his wife, of course he
would leave social management-he un-
doubtedly planned-and he would be at
ease in the knowledge that her social ac-
tivities would embrace an understanding
to help him in business by building the
right sort of social foundations.
A smile sent in his direction by viva
cious chorus girl, her lips skillfully painted
and her eyes apparently frightened by
trained application of blue and black to
lids and lashes, set all these inherent cal
culations awry. He found this dancing
girl more spontaneous, more assertive and
wittier than the daughters of his mothers
conservative friends. He realized she was
far "fresher" and did not stop to think of
heart at home he habitually sent candy
and flowers, knowing very well their
parents would promptly return anything
more substantial. To this new sweetheart
he gave whatever jewelry his allowance
would permit, saving enough, however, to
pay for extravagant midnight suppers and
support his own wooing-which cost him
the overhead expense of cabaret attendance
every night.
He forgot the inherited instinct for a
home and a well founded beginning toward
an industrial upbuilding Most certainly
she never gave such thing thought. 1t
is much to be doubted il the subjects of
furniture for a new home and the advisa-
bility Of investing in piano now or
waiting year or two were touched upon.
They just were married.
Sentiment inspired the hope the romance
would be propitious. The bride is only II
and the bridegroom 20. Everything is pos
sible and most anything is probable at IL
and 20. SO says the optimist.
But when the first few days of forgetful-
ness were past the young bridegroom
began to visualize the young woman's en-
trance into his mothers drawing room, to
meet there for the first time some of those
former sweethearts OF his and their friends.
1t has been announced this marriage. too,

course. Those who watch Miss Mitchell

remarked above, was a chauffeur. This
Of course means nothing as a judgment OF
his character, his qualities of heart and dis
position, his ambitions or his potentiali-
ties for great success. There are many
splendid men of affairs who look back with
something of pride and inner satisfaction
upon their once having been chauffeurs or
even OF a still more humble classification.
And these most often are the nations best
OF men. But marriage Is a thing of tenn
permanent and impulses-and its rightness
or wrongness depends almost wholly upon
fundamental similitudes.
Young Mr.. Glotzbach may still become
President. Certainly this is not probable,
but generous philosopher cannot but say
II is possible. Or he may graduate from
chauffeur to the ownership OF a garage;
he may improve an automobile motor and
become the proprietor of an automobile fac
tory: he may acquire a broad grasp of big
business and dominate the whole automo-
bile industry; he may develop financial
forcefulness which will make of him an
element In the financial stability Of the
nation. and, thus reaching the zenith of
business prosperity. he may search around
for a recreational hobby and establish an
opera company OF his own and send his
agents securing the Old World for just
such prima donnas as Nine. Matzenauer.
Finding them, he may have them brought
to his desk or the library OF his country
estate, and there dictate his terms to them
after scanning their qualifications for
prominence In his opera company.
And II that happy situation should ma.
terialize for Mr.. Glotzbach there would be
none to question then the propriety OF his
marriage to any one OF the eminent artists
qualified to bring fame and prestige to his
artistic hobby.
But by then Mr. Glotzbach would be a
chauffeur no longer. lie would be accus.
toned to broader vision BY his very as
sociations he would have found the art, the
intellectual, the refined in all the big things
Of life and there would be developed with
in him that gentleness and greatness OF
understanding that would seem natural
and customary to Nine. Matzenauer.
But the possibility and the fact are wide

But do they? Fiction always comes to an
end where real life begins.
To the friends OF Nine Matzenauer II will
ever be a mystery why this cultured woman,
commanding an enviable position on two
continents, accustomed to the utmost re-
finements of life, both in her associations
and in formal social contacts: an artist
who lived, mentally, in an intellectual
realm built around her by herself when
she was young, struggling student-why
she should persuade herself that she could
accommodate her temperament, her habits,
her inherent refinements to those OF a
young man who, no matter how estimable
in character, certainly could never be her
comrade I'm her own social or intellectual

But the chauffeur r-husband-ah!
And so the marriage has gone
wrong. Perhaps Nine. Matzenauer,
hoping for everything, really ex-
pected too much. Perhaps the
young man, so completely out of
his element, may have wished sim
cerely that he might fit in. Per-
haps he endeavored nightly to
liken the soprano solo to the soft
purr of his automobile motor, and
from his experience with delight
in the latter evolve speaking un-
derstanding of the former. None
can tell his musings and his ambi-
tions. Only we know that Nine.
Matzenauer now speaks of him un-
kindly, using the very language
in her description of him as was
used by her most shocked and criti-
cal friends when they heard of his
existence and spoke to one another

apart. Nine. Matzenauer must have taken
into account only the possibilities. She
looked far ahead and saw what might be
and determined that her love was strong
enough to put up with what was while it
inspired her husband to attain the what
the chauffeur and be happy with him while
she was guiding him toward success as a
man of large affairs
And that is why her marriage went
wrong" 1t almost never is a successful
experiment.
Two TemperamentS in
Decided Conflict
We may imagine the diva hurrying home
at midnight, after having triumphed once
more as Delildh. During the day she would
have been, of course, distressfully nervous,
her nerves strung taut. To miss a single
note. to deprive the aria Of one whit of its
resonant beauty, to hesitate an instant too
long in the attack-shame and disgrace!
Throughout that day the temperament of
an artist would romp uncontrolled.
But at midnight; another triumph
scored plaudits still echoing in her ears;
both peace and qualification yelling warm
within her very soul, and hurrying home
to her husband!
III that husband had attained the pos
sible for him, IL he had learned by expert
ence what his early training had denied
him, he would be sympathy and praise, not
merely In words, but in feeling and under
standing; he would realize the wonder of
this newly repeated triumph, he would un-
derstand the meaning of that extra two
minutes of applause after final curtain,
and the prolonged insistence for more fin
ger flung kisses from Delilah; he would en-
ter into the spirit Of his wife's exhilara.

about Nine. Margaret's marriage to him.
The young man has returned to his au-
tomoble and again wears his chauffeur
cap and, he declares, is more content. The
hints of there being another woman" an
inheritance from the chauffeur days which
could not be put aside upon graduation to
the elaborate apartment of the diva, is
just an emphasis of the moral.
Where Youth Made
A Mess of Things
1t is the same drama of unwiseness that
was played by Robert Savage the student
and Geneva Mitchell. .he chorus girl. Only
the plot was different and the players cast
differently.
The boy, Savage, 20 years old son and
an heir of the late John A. Savage, steel
manufacturer. was being prepared for a
more intensive education by a term at the
fashionable preparatory school at Milford,
Conn. His family intended that he should
have everything that education and college
training could provide him as equipment
for the industrial career mapped out for
him. At his home he was one of the bright
spirits in the Junior League and he was
brought up to be as apt at the small talk
OF the afternoon tea table as in the YER
nacular of the college campus. He enjoyed
the so-called "Bohemanism" of the cabaret,
being youth and inclined to see real gold
In everything that glitters, but already he
was voluntarily familiarizing himself with
the newest processes in steel manufacture
and latest developments in it's marketing
and distribution.
Inherited instincts directed his thoughts
of his early future toward a somewhat
modest home establishment, possibly with
one servant to begin: strict watchfulness
over grocery and butcher bills and a linn
tied program of social entertainment, en-
bracing only the most congenial Of the
'best people" among the young folk who
would make up his and his wifes imme-

MILK N WATER

A farmer showed a city man over
his farm. The farmer was proud of
his home, his barns, his lighting and
water supply systems, and his many
comfortable conveniences.
The fat hogs, the fine cattle, the
big horses. He was proud of these
too. For they were a little fatter,
and a little finer, and a little bigger
than any others in the neighborhood.
He was extra proud of his COWS
and their large milk production.
But" said the farmer, pointing to a
part of his water supply system, that
pump there is the best COW on the
farm"
And right away the city man tat
tied that the farmer vas watering his
milk. Was the city man right? Yes,
he was right, and also wrong.
What the farmer meant, and what
the city man failed to understand,
was this: The water supply system
furnished plenty of running water;
and by having all the water they
wanted to drink when and where they
wanted to drink it, the cows produced
more milk
You see the farmer did water his
milk; but he watered it through the
cows, just as he watored his pork
through the hogs and his beef through
the cattle

MAKE THE TIME UNIFORM

Elsewhere in the Censor is published
the official election notice pertaining
to the approaching primary election.
We want you to read IL because the
latter part of the notice contains a
special notice by County Clerk Berlie
Moore pertaining TO the law relative to
the opening and closing of the polls
The law now permits of making the
time of closing uniform throughout
the county if the voters Of the differ
ent precincts so desire. Time Of close
ing in the towns in the past has been
eight o'clock, the theory being that
this gives some voters chance to
vote who could not come earlier This
results M holding the election officials
from nine in the morning until in
some precincts as late as two o'clock
in the morning a very long day in
deed--not to mention the lateness Of
returns. There is growing feeling
in the towns 5liaa the few votes regis
tered between five and eight o'clock
are not numerous enough to Offset the
inconvenience of the election officials
and the holding up of returns, and the
sentiment seems to be for uniform
closing Of all polling places at $50,
the same as cities and villages. The
law now provides for this change, and
the Clerks notice tells you the proceed
ure to follow in making the change.
