KATHLEEN NORRIS
Every Day, i'm Every Way the World Is Really Getting
Better-We See 1t the Instant We Go Back to Real


Suffering exists. but we la.
ment it.
We no longer sip our broth,
battle our dainty hands in human
blood, and take anguish and wrong
for granted.
And we are beginning to hear
less Of that old and popular fallacy
that the very savages were kinder
than we.
"HAPPY" SAvAGES.
They were happier in their
Zulu forestsr' said the Arrested
! Thinker complacently. in 1890, in
1910, in 1920 and undoubtedly
in 1910. why not leave them
to their savage simplicities? The
minute Christian civilization
comes in. then they are ruined"
If the Arrested Thinker would
only unchain that grey matter Of
his and let the wheels revolve!
If he would read, let us say,
some Of the actual descriptions of
life. religious ceremonies, expia-
tons. punishments and, tortures
among savage tribes, his heart
would grow sick within him.
Let him read, for example, of
the bamboo-shoot tortures inflicted
upon mothers whose only offence
was to bear twins; Of the immola-
ton upon pyre of actual scores
Of a chiefs friends !. and wives
upon the chiefs death-today,
now, in spot no more inacces-
sible than Calabar, on the west
coast Of Africa.
All the explorers, ali the mis-
sionaries, tell the same tale. But
/ know no book more packed with
evidences of savage horrors than
J. G. Fraser's extraordinary THE
Golden Bough."
TWO PICTURES.
Read a few pages Of this, Of
bear worship, Of taboos, of the.
seven and eight-year confinement
Of little girls, Of the tearing out
of living human hearts, of filth.
stupor, stagnation, blindness and
horror-some of it not a hundred
years old. some Of 1t going on and
being fought by our civilization
today
Read it-and then look out Of
your window at two little girls In
clean gingham, passing the free
library and the clinic on their way
to school, pleasantly conscious
that free and happy mother has
promised them a picnic on Satur-
day, and perhaps glancing up at
banner blowing against blue
sky, and humming confidently a
verse from one Of their school
songs:
America, America-God mend
thine every flaw,
Confirm thy good with brother.

WA TERINEN FIND WILD DEER
IN SOUTH RIVER ICE FLOEl
Young Doe, Stranger In These Parts, Discovered
By George Parks And William Cadle, Who
Had Started Out To Hunt Fox Trails
Caught In Jam At Mouth
OF Broad Creek N

She waters OF Anne Arundel county
have long teen famed as good fishing
grounds, and its woods and fields are
favored ly many hunters, but never
tefore. al least in the recollection OF
old inhal itants, has its thickets been
known to harbor an animal such as
a wild deer
Today George Parks and VIM. Cadle,
watermen and hunters of the South
river section. had the good fortune
of capturing young doe near Broad
creek, an estuary of that river 1t
had fecome wedged in a foe of ice
while attempting to swim 20 the ether
side of the river. so ii is believed
and its limbs We're lady frozen when
the huntsmen rescued il from its pre-
dicament.
Parks and Cadle had started out
early yesterday morning on a hunting
expedition, principally for trailing
foxes. AS they neared Broad creek,
about mf1e IN the river, at 8 O'Clock,
they espied peculiar oil ject in the
ice at the mouth OF the creek. Ap-
preaching it. they were surprised to
find that it was a deer. They were
amazed. Ropes were promptly
trought into play and the hunters
lifted the animal into their motor
toat.
Evening capital. [volume] (Annapolis, Md.) 1922-1981, 1923-02-07

The deer was so numbed by cold
that it made little or no resistance and
its capture therefore was easily effect
ed. The hunters then turned their boat
lack towards Edgewater where they
live. and placed the young doe in a
static, covered it with blankets. and
otherwise provided for its comfort
The animal is so numbed by the cold
that so far, it has teen unable to
stand on its feet 1t otherwise ap-
pears as docile as a lamb. Meanwhile
officials OF the State Game Depart
ment at Baltimore. have teen mott
fled of the capture of tho deer.
There is much speculation here as
to where the animal came from; whe-
ther it might have escaped from the
zoo at Washington or Baltimore. or
wandered down from the hills oi
Westerni Maryland Another theory
advanced is that it may be the pet OF
some family living in tho country
The country where the deer had made
its hal itat is hilly and thick, and
in the vicinity of the Annapolis Water
Works, five miles from the city. The
snowstorm of Tuesday is thought to
have driven it from its haunt, and il
attempted to swim che river to an
other feeding ground, when it became
caught in the ice.

FOUR INCHES OF SNOW
DURING BRIEF STORM;
K|DD|ES co SHEDDING

About four inches of snow fell dur
ing the storm that struck Annapolis
and vicinity yesterday. The storm,
which had threatened for several
days. blew in from the northeast. II
was general all over the State. and in
some sections the fall of fleecy flakes
was much heavier than here
The weather officials had forecast
a storm that would continue for more
than "a hours, but the prediction fell
far short. AS matter of fact, the
precipitation here lasted exactly 1919
hours The snow set in about noon
and along about 10:3O last night the
heavy clouds began to break away
and the stars peeped out Again,
however, the skies became overcast
and remained so throughout the
night. and this morning indications OF
more snow we're very ominous indeed
A light furry did prevail for half an
hour, but before noon it began TO
clear away and the sun beamed forth
Children of the city, impatient to use
their sleds. had a rollicking time
coasting last night and today, and al
though the temperature has ascended
several degrees above the freezing
point, sleighing will be good again to-
night with the chill that follows sun
set

ing temperature tomorrow. according

To the results you might even add
brilliant, pathetic and humorous. and
the answer would be just what it was
before. The play which Miss Jean
Webster has made from her book,

To attempt to describe the beauty
and simplicity of Daddy Long Legs
would be like attempting to describe
the first breath of spring after an ex-
cedingly tiresome and hard winter.
This play, which Miss Jean Web
ster has made from her hook. will he
presented in st. Mary's Hall by the
National Council of Catholic Women
tomorrow and Friday nights and
Saturday afternoon.

which has been put on by John l.
