EW YORK, Aug. 9.-When
I'M people tell you that the man
Ill of today is not romantic
just don't believe them, advises
Josephine Lovett.
And if you want to collect pro-
posals instead of a career, don't d.
rect your appeal entirely to a mans
mentality. or his senses, or his prac-
teal nature-but to his imagina-
tion," she advises. when you have
touched that. you dominate him"
DO You know" she asked earn
estly. what quality every director
in the country is looking for in
women today? 1t is the ability to
inspire romance. That's the most
desirable quality any woman can
have
Miss Lovett is the wife of John
S. Robertson, the famous motion
picture director. She writes all his
scenarios, goes over all his plans
with him and, according to his own
statements. inspires much OF his
best work. She probably knows as
much about what pictures need as
any woman in the game
Movie Mems Ideals
She recoun.ed this little incident:
Recently 1 sat in a projection
room with three directors, viewing
a picture in which a new and I'M
known actress was appearing. They
all agreed she was a winner.
Because she's the true madonna
type said the first. Because of
her eyes--they suggest hidden fire
and smoldering emotions, volun-
teered the second. Because she's
so irresistably feminine put in the
third.
Now, as a woman. 1 had seen
neither the slumbering fires, the
madonna or the extreme femininity.
1 saw an ordinarily pretty girl do
ing a very clever bit Of acting. But
L saw a future for any actress who
could have three such distinct ap-
peals for three men in the same
business, looking for the samo
thing. And I promise you that girl
will succeed.
Types change. The imagination
of the modern man may respond to
different stimulae than that of his
great-grandfather, but it's romance
that gets him, just the same.
Composite Woman"
So l believe that the woman who
is popular on the screen will al
ways be a composite of the most
popular women of her day. Like a
jewel, the more facets she can show
the more valuable she IS.
ut is true that girls most appeal
ing on the screen are not so in real
life, but it may be because externals
blind us to the very qualities which
the screen brings out"
Actual beauty or the ability to
wear clothes is each secondary to
the romantic appeal in women,

And someway 1 have felt the same
ever since took this child into my

deal OF foolishness in that tradition
which has been disseminated, that a
mother has a different feeling for the
child she has borne than the child
she has adopted when it is very
young and brought up as one Of her
own.
1t is the constant living with and
seeing the little bodies and souls and
minds grow that makes a mother love
her own Nowadays, when a woman
is apt to take a narcotic and know
very little of birth pains, motherhood
does not mean just the matter Of
birth; it means the matter Of constant
care and love with which woman
surrounds a child that is constantly
in her household as well as in her
heart.

TARIFF THE GREATEST BARRIER

The administration at Washington has apparently decided upon some thing definite looking to the relief of the wheat farmers of the West. Eu. gene Meyer, IT,, managing director of the war finance corporation, has started West on trip of inspection. He is accompanied by Frank w. Mon dell, a director of the war finance corporation; H. s. Yohe of the bureau of agricultural economics, two other members of the commission, and Floyd k. Harrison, the managing directors assistant. These officials are to in~ vestigate particularly the practicabiI- ity of the suggestion made by Gray Silver, legislative representative in Washington of the Farm Bureau Fed eration, that the war finance corpora- tion use it's authority for the creation of credits abroad in order that pur- chases of wheat may be made over seas. MT. Silver feels that this method will eliminate any idea of price fixing by the government, but will give full sway to the law of supply and demand, and that fair prices will grow out of the consumption abroad of Americas surplus.
 MT. Silver is on the right track. European markets for American sur plus products are essential. The prob lem has been to find method by which foreign nations, hard-pressed financially, can pay for what they buy here. There is measure of arti- ficiality about this plan for the war finance corporation to make loars abroad to supply the necessary funds. While it may serve as temporary expedieht, sooner or later the Repub- lican administration must realize that. if European nations have no money. the only way they can pay for the things they buy is with goods, and that the Republican tariff wall is therefore the greatest barrier to sale of the farmers product. The farmer himself is gradually reaching that mental attitude of placing the respon- sibility where it belongs, and it is this fact that is prompting the Republican administration to take strenuous and unusual steps to pacify him.

ANOTHER CUT IN GASOLINE

A cut of two cents gallon in the retail price of gasoline has been an- nounced by several of the larger oil companies, to cover five states, includ- ing Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Ken lucky and Missouri, while several com panies have made similar cuts in twenty or more states. The reduction is explained in a general way by of ficials of several competitive pro- ducers, some claiming that the policy was adopted to. stabilize the market, that it is move work off some of the large su olus stock which has been pressing for disposal, and so on.
 Of just what is the underlying cause of this cut, which seems to have been inaugurated by the Standard Oil Com pany, and was promptly met by the Gulf, Indian and other big dealers, the average consumer probably has little definite idea~ Most people will regard the move as another price war between several of the larger concerns in efforts to get more business than their competitors, which sometimes re- suits in the crowding to the wall of one or the other, and forcing smaller in dependent dealers to quit or to sell out at figures named by the big fellows. The impression very largely prevails that such policies are temporary in character looking to the acquisition of strategic positions that will empower the holders of the same to pile on sufficient price increases later to pay for the war and leave a handsome profit for the future.
 The consumer gets very little in this workaday world. He has been the goat so long that he has been trained to some extent to accept the situa- z ttion as a matter of course and keep on paying until it hurts. He may get some little benefit for the time when price-war situations develop; but he is likely to overlook that his day of grace is fleeting and that soon he will be gouged as usual. Still, he can do a bit of extra joy-riding while the fight lasts, and two cents a gallon saving is not to be sneezed at locally or anywhere. It helps some, even though most consumers do not lay in

POOR BOYS, WHO
 BECAME FAMOUS By Frederick Houk Law
Samuel Schwabe

It always pays to cultivate a hobby-some form of amusement that has in it something of real worth. Work on a hobby is not real work; it is play, and it rests and refreshes one after the real work of the day. Many a man has found that the thing that he has work ed at for the very pleas ure it gave him is his real work in life. Among such people is Samuel Schwabe, who was a drug gist, but who loved to look. at. the stars.
 Samuel Schwabe was born Tn Germany. Early in life he was obliged to go to work for a living. He found a place in what we should call a drug store, and there employed himself busily, learning how to make careful measure- ments of drugs and how to put up prescriptions. For a long time he worked humbly at his daily tasks, reading and studying in the even ings. From the time when he had been a little child he had been at tracted by the sight of the stars, d fascination in the heavenly bodies, and a curiosity to know more about them. He did not know it at the time, but curiosity Is the foundation of all real learning.
 He procured a small telescope and proceeded to use 1t as best he could. merely for the <, sake of amusement and the satisfying of his curiosity. When he was thirty seven, having kept up his hobby for some years, he began to pay particular attention to observing the sun. He noticed that spots appeared upon the bright surface of the great orb. Curious con corning these mysterious spots on something so bright as the sun, he watched them day after day and recorded his observations. He made no pretepse to being an as- tronomer; he simply wished to find out all about the sunspots.
 By the time he was fifty-four schwabe put forward theory that the sun spots had regular move ments, and that they came /more into view at intervals of ten years. He was loudly laughed at for his theory-but he was persist ent, insisted he was right, and set about proving it by making many more observations. Today he is recorded in the books of astron- omy as one of the most original of observers and as the first man to put forward what astrorfomers now consider fact-that the sun spots move as he said he had seen them move. The obscure druggist. with his hobby, had beaten the astronomers at their own work, and had made himself famous forever.

rha Mnther nf zachary Tnylor


 I'm goingsto be married" whls- pered Sarah Strother in 1779- which seems such long, long way off from the present. It Is really no further away than is yesterday It is merely a day that has gone. It was once as real, as new, as surprising, as happy as any day is now.
 Sarah Strother is going to be married!" her associates said. She is nineteen years old! What lovely bride she is going to be-!
 Everyone who knew her knew that Richard Taylor was the hus- band-to-be. He's. sixteen years older than Sarah!" some of the gossips whispered. But that didn't matter. He was a fine, strong young man who came of fine, strong ancestry. He himself was a soldier, and a man to be proud of. In those wintry days when the British drove the American army, only a handful of starving, ragged troops, ever to the South there was Richard Taylor, one, of the officers in command of the pa triots.
 When Washington crossed the Delaware among the floating cakes of ice there again was Rich ard Taylor bending his back to an oar and pushing away the ice. Sarah Strother is getting mighty good husbandi" the men said, for they all respected the officer who had served~ well. So they were married-and they lived happily ever afterwards. Down on their Virginia plantation they set up what we should re- gard as very simple housekeeping.
 There were no luxuries in those days! Sarah brought up eight children. One of her five sons she named Zachary Taylor-and he it was who became the twelfth president of the United States "Old Rough and Ready" for he was a soldier like his father, and a good one. In his last years he was elected president, because from his simple home training he had developed a strong, patriotic character that had led him to serve his country well.
