YOUR CALLS

THERE are some women who really
4 seem to delight in making their
calls on other women just when those
balls will ca,ise the nosttembarrass-
ment. Mrs. Jones, who has three or
four servants and no household re-
sponsibilities, save the supervision of
her servants, seems to enjoy dropping
in on Mrs. Smith, who has three chill
dren and no servants. at about nine in
the morning. finding the Smith house
in considerable disorder, Mrs. Smith
in an ill-fitting morning dress, and the
Youngest of the Smith children in his
most peevish mood. Mrs. Jones ex-
plains that she had important COM
mittee work to discuss with Mrs.
Smith: but she could just as well have
telephoned her errand or at least have
telephoned to warn Mrs. Smith of
her arrival.
Then there are the people who al
ways call when they know you have
house guests. They drop in Sunday
afternoon possibly when you have
planned to take a stroll over to the
Country club or to go motoring or
rambling through the country.
There are some people whom you
like very well and whose presence is
pleasure when you meet them after
working hours whom you would very
much rather not have come to see you
at your Office or place of business.
The day they select TO drop in is sure
10 he your busiest day. Don't let me
disturb you at ALL" they say, as they
tuck themselves into chair in your
Office. 81 haven't anything else to do
so I'll just sit here with a book or
magazine until you are ready to go
out for luncheon" Or possibly If you
have no office of your own they send
in for you TO come TO see them in the
outer office of the establishment where
you work, or sit on a stool in front of
the counter where you work as sales
person, little realizing that they are
jeopardizing your position. possibly,
nv being seen there during business
hours.
Inere are Times WHEN the SHUT Sdh
Is required by courtesy, but to make
that call long is extremely inconsid-
crate. So when there is illness in
friends household you should call TO
inquire for those who are i'll and also
to ask whether You can be of any serv-
nee. but your call. If you wish to make
yourself a welcome caller. should not
be extended over more than five or
ten minutes Likewise a call Of con-
dolence should be extremely short,
unless. of course. it is perfectly patent
that In making 1t longer you are Of
actual assistance or comfort.

A BUSINESS PERSONS HAND


XYOUI.D you succeed in business?
Study your hand carefully, and
note whether the palm, the fingers, the
mounts. the lines, etc., bear the indi-
cations, which have been found.
through study, to mark the hand of
the successful man or woman of bust
ness.
In the first place, the hand should
be of good size. and inclined toward
squareness, as indicating practically of
mind. Next, the consistency of the
hand should be firm, as showing en-
erSy.
The top phalanx or division of the
thumb should be large and we'll
shaped. for this indicates good will
power, which is so necessary if one is
to win success in the world of affairs
Reason and logic, also necessary quail
tiles in business, show themselves in a
well-shaped second phalanx of the
thumb. Then turn to the finger of
Apollo. the third or ring finger, and
note whether the middle phalanx is
long and well-shaped. If so, 1t indi-
Gates love of work, which leads, of
course, to success.

things were as Mrs. Woodpecker
wanted.
Now Dir. Owl had heard Mrs. Wren
and her husband chattering on limb
OF the tree that morning about finding
place TO live because two very rude
sparrows had taken the place they
had the year before and though they
had scolded and threatened they were
not able TO make the sparrows move
out
Il will tell them about this place. ="
thought Mr.. Owl. The hole they
have now will be plenty big enough
for the wrens and they won't hammer
my head off as these noisy creatures
are doing.
II was not easy for Mr.. Owl to get
about In daytime but he managed to
find Mr.. and Mrs. Wren and told them
about the fine place they could have
If they could drive away the Wood

never stop that hammering, for one
stays on duty while the other is away"
Mrs. Wren was so excited she could
not keep quiet and as soon as Mrs.
Woodpecker flew away over went the
Wrens, flying straight into the eyes
of astonished Mr.. Woodpecker, chat
tering and Tapping their wings until
he was glad to leave the tree.
1t did not take Mrs. Wren a second
10 inspect the house while her husband
stood guard outside 1--WE will take it,"
she said, poking out her head. and
though il was noisy battle they had
when Mrs. Woodpecker returned with
her husband the Wrens kept the house.
"Now | win have little peace >
said Mr.. Owl solemnly. and all the
birds around who had been watching
said. 20 wise Mr.. Owl how very wise
you are indeed"
But alas and alack for Mr.. Owls
well-laid plans for peace. in a few
DAYS he was holding his ears TO shu,
out the scolding chatter of Mrs. Wren,
for he did not know that she was a
bad seold.
Mr.. Owl knew better than to try to
get Mrs. Wren to move. He ,disliked
quarrel anyway and well he knew
he would get the worst of it II he COM
planned Of her noisy chattering.
SO one night he took his belongings
under his wing and silently went away

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
PORCELAIN"

THE strange beliefs which sur
round substances of I'M
known or misunderstood origin
have been responsible for a num-
Der of words now used in every
day language, but probably none
of these is as unusual as "porce-
lain"
When this material was first
introduced into Europe in the
Sixteenth century there were
many rumors concerning its orr
gin. The very fact that it was
imported from the Orient cast a
glamour about 1t, a romance of
the East, an almost legendary
account of its formation. Fragile
and beautiful. 1t was supposed
by some to have been made from
the rarest of minerals. tinted
with the colors OF the sunset and
nodded with the aid of magic
arts. But the story which seems
TO nave gained the greatest Gre
dence is that the substance was
buried underground for a hun
dred years in order to impart the
peculiar translucent and deli
cate beauty which is the mark OF
the true porcelain.
II was for this reason that the
French applied TO 1t the phrase
pour cent anness"-for a hun
dred years-later combined In
the single word porcelain"
which was imported intact
across the channel and finally,
stripped of its Gallo pronuncla-
ton. found its way into accepted
English.

THE JEFFERSON MEMORIAL

The nationwide movement to
raise one million dollars for the
purchase and preservation of the
home of Thomas Jefferson de
serves to succeed. Monticello is
a noble old mansion within a few
miles of Charlottesville and over
looks one of the faircSt valleys in
all Virginia. In some respects
the house and its environs are
more impressive than Mount
Vernon. and that is saving much.
In a modest cemetery near the
entrance of the estate. the dust
OF the famous American reposes.
A plain and simple shaft bears
his name and there is no refer
ence i'll the inscription to the fact
that Jefferson was the president
of the United States. The cpl
taph. however, significantly
states that he founded the Uni
versity of Virginia. and was au-
thor of a bill of rights.
The most noted men of Ieffer-
sons day were guests OF Mont
cello, among them Lafayette. SO
generously did the master of the
fine old estate dispense hospital
ity entertaining his friends that
he bankrupted himself. and
shortly after his death the place
passed out of the hands of his
heirs.
The political controversies and
partisan excuses OF that dramatic
period in our national life are OF
secondary interest now. but the
inherent greatness of the men
who were making history then
is OF primary Importance and un-
ending interest to succeeding
generations. Thomas Jefferson's
is one of 1.-THE few, the immortal
names that were not born to
die"
Monticello should be forever
set apart as a monumental shrine
to which the peoples of all ma
tons may pilgrimage in increas-
ing numbers to pay tribute to the

MONORs HIS SCHOOL

Roland Rice, the Anne Arun-
del Academy student who won
first honors in the inter-scholas-
tic defamation contest held
Thursday at St. Johns College,
is justly entitled to feel proud OF
his accomplishment. 1t was no
easy task to successfully COM
pete against the array OF orator
ical talent which the other State
high schools had entered in this
twelfth annual event. and the
fruits of victory, therefore are all
the sweeter because of the strong
opposition he had to overcome.
BY winning first prize, the
Millersville lad, not only covered
himself with glory but his efforts
also reflected great credit upon
the school which he attends.
Only by dint OF hard work and
careful training can one hope to
master the art of declaiming, and
young Rice's performance, in adj
dition to showing that he is pos
sessed of the spark that ct,Marc
Antony's soul aflame. alsbldem-
onstrated that he had received
excellent instruction. His, sue
cess, in fact, speaks highly for the
quality of educational work be-
ing carried on at Anne Arundel
Academy and its teachers and
school officials are deserving of
much praise for maintaining such
excellent standards.
We offer our congratulations
to the Millersville school-boy and
hope that his splendid achieve
ment will serve as an inspiration
tor other county youths.

sIxTY.TwO YEARS AFTER
a "Reminiscences

To the Editor Of the EUeniHg Capital:
The first blood OF the cum Civil
War was shed on Pratt street. Balti-
more. April 10, 1861.
The railroad from New York had its
terminal at President street and
rough cars were hauled by horses
to tho r. c o. at Camden Station.
The Sixth Massachusetts Regimen;
was en- route TO Washington. AT Gay
and Pratt streets, where a CARLOAD OF
building sand was thrown or the
track and the citizens gathered TO
resist the passage of this regiment. An
immense crowd gathered. and with
stones. bricks and barred hands at
tacked the soldiers. who had disem-
harked and were marching TO Camden
station. Hon. George William Brown
was Mayor and Col. George p. Kane.
Marshall Of Police. These two men.
though ardent Southern sympathizeTs,
did all in their power to quell the riot
and protect the soldiers and were re-
warded by being imprisoned in Fort
La Fayette.
At that time there were only two
trains day to and from Baltimore.
When the evening train arrived An

that there were loud mutterings

the landing of any troops here.
At that time the State armory was
In the Circle, at its junction with
Maryland avenue (then North East
street, and in this armory there were
four old iron cannon. A steam ferry
ran from the opposite side OF the
Severn. and we arranged to seize the
steamer and take the guns and mount
them on Fort Madison and to use them
on any boats approaching with SOL
