A SORRY DISTINCTION

In days of simple language and frank
motives, men who wouldn't work were
regarded as of no account, and generally
the members of this tribe were called
tramps. To be tramp, in the old sense,
a man didn't have to walk the railroad
tics. let his face go unshavcn until he
looked a fright. and beg from kitchen
door to kitchen door; not necessarily.
Sometimes a rich ne'er-do-well was re-
ferrcd to as chat tramp
But nowadays tramps have been di-
vided-or have divided thcmselves--into
distinct classes. Not that there is any
greater difference than there used to
be between this non-worker and that.
But whereas formerly there was 4 physi-
cal but none the less superficial differ
cnce between the well-drcssed dronc and
the tramp who looked the part, now the
distinctions are largely matters OF
nomenclature.
Tn recent issue of magazine which
is devoted to the songs. symbols, pecu-
laritie5 of speech and the philosophy
of the "hobo" the following definitions
are given: Hobo, migratory worker ;
tramp, a migratory non-worker: bum,
a stationary non-workcr.
Thus the hobo lays claims to virtue
with which neither the tramp nor the
bum is credited-namcly, Willingness to
work. Yet the hobo. 1T least when lie
resorts to the printed word, puts in
most of his time complaining about the
conditions under which he would have to
work if he didn't Save himself hy keep
ing on the move Either the pay isn't
sufficient, or the hours arc too long.
or the tasks too cXacting, or the diver
sions distasteful or inadequate, or some
thing else is wrong with every job he
has ever had. Therefore he mgiates
his Is life of migration. As If that
would remedy TIE alleged evils Of which
he is necessarily complaining.
SO, after all, the hobo's status, from
the economic standpoint. seems to be a.
most, if not quite, on a par with that
of the tramp. The tramp has at least
one thing in his favor: He i; frank
about his dislike for work. Hc works
only when it suits hi:n To do so. ard
work suits him only when lie can't get
bite to eat or bit OF clothing by
fany' other means. The hobo. pretending
to be worker, works only when job
suits him; and. inasmuch as he is proud
of his migratory propensity, sheer neces-
sitv is his orlv boss. too.
If everybody should adopt the phil
osophy" of the hobo, nobody would
have a permanent job. For there is no
job on earth that doesn't present dis
advantages. Most jobs arc very dis
agreeable at times. The work % tie
world is not done, and cannot be done
on the hobo basis. II 4 man Won't work
merely because the lob assigned TO him
isn't perfectly to his liking, he is nc
better than a tramp o. d bum. even
though he may enjoy tie distinction Ct
being classed as hobo.

A SUMMER NIGHT

l feel the breath of the summer night,
Aromatic fire:
The trees, the vines, the flowers are astir
With tender desire.
The white moths flutter about the lamp,
Enamoured with light;
And a thousand creatures softly sing
A song TO the night.
But am alone. and how can l sing
Praises TO thee?
Come. Night unveil the beautiful soul
That waiteth for me:

Thousands who never heard c the Spring Song now sing Wien the Leaves Come Tumtliag Down, little realizing that part of it is one of the worlds greatest musical classics, but that it tcok a catchy bit of jazz theme 10 make this class ic known everywhere.

 T, for ono, cannot see how learn- ing classics via jazz college i'll any way violates their beauty, and thc public is showing a decided prefer ence for classical jazz as proved by a recent survey which revealed the fact that more music of this type is sold than any other.
 This conyinces me more than ever that popular dance music is a great educational factor and coming to mean more to Us every day, and that from this union of the new and the old will be born a new musical era which students will assiduously study century hence and refer to as the classics of old

Plot and counterplot wound about a dual romance takes the action Of "The Money Maniac" coursing at q whirlwind pace from London to Spain, and to New York, with the scenes actually staged in the exact locale required by the story. This opens at the Palace Wednesday night.
 Leonce Ferret, producer and direc. tor of "The Money Maniac adapted the story from "Rolande, La Divine by Louis Letang A story Of adven. ture. intrigue and romance, it is a red blooded. swift-actioned melodra' matic tale replete with thrills and suspense.

 American Contention
 The most acute handicap which the American lines saw in the new position of their government in pro hibition enforcement was the ability of foreign competitors to reStcck on outward voyages even though forbid den to bring intoxicating liquor, into American waters. Should Ameli con ships be prohibited from having liquor aboard at all times, and foreign ships be required to be dry while iu American waters it would be possible the American companies claimed, for the foreign ships quickly to obtain q new supply on their outward trips by stopping at a nearby foreign port. or by replenishing from sistcr or other ships at sea.

LAST NIGHT OF "oRPhANS OF THE STORM"

Orphans of the Storm is D. w. GrHffTth's biggest and most brilliant spectacle produced in America. and that leaves nothing to be said. Based on the stirring melodrama, "The Two Orphans" with a record of half century's success, the Griffith film utilizes every bit of dramatic action in it and displays it against q Ti- tanic Background of action and at mosphere of the period--the French revolution. They have hailed "Or- phans of the Storm" as a moving story. swift in action, wonderful in historic interest. and filmed with masterly sense of suspense and eli max.
 Not only has a great spectacular undertaking been accomplished in the new Griffith film, but it is played by a notable cast. For tke first time since the "Hearts Of the World the two Gish sisters are in one film, as the two orphans.
