Calvin Coolidge says: "In these
days, children get about what they
ask for, not what the wise judgement
of their parents and should dictate.
Their pockets are filed with money
and to go to purchase pleasure, the
pleasure their easy money will buy.
The taste for pleasure is formed as
the taste for work and thrift is killed.
Later on, in natural development OF
things, the taste for pleasure becomes
so strong that it must be satisfied at
any cost. If crime has to be resorted
to, that price is paid"

 As Harry read that last stanza I found my eyes filled with tears. I wasn't really plying myself. I was mistaken illusions.

 Something inside of me snapped, Doctor George, and the Harry Glen dening that I had built up in my heart disappeared forever.

The eff feet was always a way strewn with broken hearts.
 Harry was never in love with anyone but he was always in love with love. He was always looking for iove-the thrills and transports of love. Having these the one who gave them to him was forgotten.
 T really do not think he could help 1t, Doctor George. I could not be angry with him. It rather sur prised me that this knowledge did not hurt me more.
 T wondered If Harry had in some way deadened my emotions by his story. Would I wake up shortly to the same terrible pain and hurt that I had felt at first?
 T kept asking myself this all the

 T do think I would have forgiven him and at least have started in to trust him again but I was sure that there would be others-not A-neri- can beauties perhaps, but there were even more beautiful flowers in the garden of fair women that seem to bloom only to be gathered.

 For the first time I knew that Harry had had quite as much re- sponsibility In making Doris selfish and self-contained as she had in making him Irresponsible and flighty.
 'who could tell how much she loved him? Surely 1t was not for me to judge.
 "I raised my face The reality of the little restaurant table again came into view. I knew that l had learned my lesson. I knew that jus tice had been meted out to me. I was paying the price the transgres- sor pays-always pays"
 But what of Glendening7 That is what I want to know" came the impatient voice of Davis at this point. 'Is that dog going to get away with all this? We know he has practically ruined the lives of two good women and perhaps we might rate the American beauty with them Lord knows how many other hearts he has broken. Is he going to get away with 1t all? Are his wife, Margaret Earle, and the American beauty going to let him sail along in calm waters and signal other ships7"

 Well. let's let him get over this one. What, Milt, Is Margarets yer sion of the parting?"
