THE FIRST LONG TROUSERS
BY Albert Apple

Men, it's just 100 years since long trousers began to
into fashion Beau Brumme the celebrated Enghsh
society leader had introduced them few before
His daring example had been copied by the OF the
day. But most held back especially the conservative
Substantial ones."
They considered long trousers a childish form of mas
querade afraid they would look ridiculous If they
abandoned knee -breeches.
After century, the pendulum swings and kneebreeches
coming back They by golfers engineers anu
other of the outdoors and camping trips and hikes
Judging by and comfort great many men
truth known would like to knee pants all
the time.
Why not? Alas, in mems community association they
have acquired tmidy and of shame anything not
conforming to the crowd Long trousers still are the CO.
and it's brazen male who dares fly in the teeth of
ton and short
knee-breeches coming back, nevertheless Cloth
iers predict they will be commonly in offices, shops
and the streets within few years. 1t certainly will be
revelation, eh? We have sneaking suspicion that long
caught popular fancy because they hid such hand

Why stop nee-breeches? Why not dress most OF

BEING ONES SELF
(Atlantic City Cnion)


Sinclair Lewis is right; d lot of
Americans do not get enough fun
out of life.
The young intellectuals chal-
lenge it is regimented and
standardized.
Davenports are put in front OF
fireplaces, not because the owners
want them there. but because
other people have them there. Mr..
Babbitt installs a cigar lighter in
his car, not because he thinks he
gets fun out OF a harmlessly gilt
tering automobile accessory, but
because he thinks it gives rclass'
to his machine.
Doing things because other peo-
pie 90 them. or doing them in
sincerely to impress other people
is one good way of leading a dull
life.
Fun comes by being ones self.
The exterior act should reflect the
one within.
The davenport is in its proper
place when it is where you want it
as being living your own life,
an0 not giving fig for artificial
mass standards.
Golf is good game if you play
it because you like it. But it is Il
poor pastime when you find it but
another way of doing what other
people do. You might rather play
marbles or hop-scotch, if marbles
or hOp-scotch better releases your
fun instinct.
The remedy for much Of which
the young intellectuals complain
lies in questioning ourselves more
as to why we do things. Have ou:
opinions come to us ready-made
from our parents or from our en-.
virOnment, or have we thought
things out for ourselves
Do we put cigar lighters on our
cars for the convenience of cigar
smokers or to acquire a sham
"class"? Why not do more things,
think more things, feel more
things. that are really our own?
That's one way to have fun.
Men want to make things and d.
things that reflect themselves
They want to create. in the spirit
OF play, things beautiful or odd or
interesting. They get fun out OF
life to the extent in which the
things they make or do reflec;
what they really are. But as lons
as the chief business Of life lies in
coming out better than our broth
ers in the competitive struggle the
brighter business of making life
interesting and creative must wait

The women are wearing their new
fall hats. At least, we think that's
what they are.
Cold is what makes the Esquimos
fat, which is what makes a girl wear
silk stockings in winter.
When girl throws good man
down ne bounccs right into another
ones lap.
We would hate to be so fat we
had no lap upon which to sit the
younger set.
Late to bed and late to rise makes
one unhealthy and broke and wise.
The first season a dcbutantc is
quite the berries, next season she
is made into wine. and the third sea-
son turns to vinegar.
Many a flame is started by the
flicker of an eyclid.
The mother who said, "What
beautiful scenery?" has daughter
who says, what nice parking
places"
The new fall dance steps have
many twists and turns.
Father no longer slips in late at
night. He brecZes in, confident the
others are not there to hear him.
The rising generation stays UP tc
see the sunrise instead Of getting up
to see it.

to pay an official calf, and was in
vited to stay to tea. He was dressed
for this ceremonial visit in many
gaily colored robes, and was attend
ed by large retinue of white gown
ed courtiers. However, he was king
only in name, and had no real
powers in his. own country
After breakfast next morning,
Mearns had decided to operate upon
me. He had called to his aid the
government doctor at Hoima. At the
last moment, Colonel Roosevelt in

OF cotton wool, held the basin of
antiseptic, and generally gave need
ed assistance. 1t must have been a
new role for Colonel Roosevelt, and

president of the United States was
helping to operate upon me in the
wilds Of Africa. 1t certainly was an
unique situation.
1t so happened that there was no
anaesthetic available in Hoima, and
Mearns asked me if | could stand
the operation without. | told him to
go ahear, and be as quick as he
could. With three quick incisions,
as l lay on my campbell, he laid
bare the seat Of the trouble.
1t was not a case of hernia, but
merely a bad abscess on the abdomi-
nal wall. The instant the abscess
had been opened. the pain was re-
lieved. AS he operated, | had tried
to whistle tune so as to keep my
mind occupied.
"What tune were you whistling,

passed Mearns bandage. 81 don't

saying she had been told to leave a
hotel for the first time in her life,
and she called upon all her ances-

to bear witness to her responsibility
and the cnormity of the insult.
AS soon as things quieted down a
little, Miss Bradford said: What
will do now? You know, my dear
Mrs. Prescott, have not the money

This brought things to a climax,
for you must have known by this
time, Leslie, that your mothcr-in-l law
is rather close. She hangs on to all
the money she gets, and you and
Jack pay most Of her bills. While
she thought Jack and you were go
ing to settle for Miss Bradford, she
did not worry about her. She liked
to have her around to stir up
things. But she certainly did not
relish paying her hotel bill of ten
dollars a day out of her own very
generous allowance.

''The Hunchhack,
~ OF NOtre Dame"
Great Picture

The production made by Universal
Of Victor Hugo's immortal story,
"The Hunchback of Notre Dame" at
the Capitol Theatre, has met with
high favor, exceeding any big pro-
duction within ready memory and
promising permanence most graf
flying to all who have, the welfare
of the screen at heart. In massive
ness and thoroughness this produc-
tion is revelation and gives truth
to the pronouncement by able critics
that it eclipses anything previously
offered
Hugo's story was charged with a
dramatic power such as he only
could WELD. The period Of the fiji
teenth century in France was one
wherein drama filled to overflowing
the daily lives of its people. The

would be completed the first stage
OF our journey across Uganda to the
Albert Nyanza, the Congo, the Nile,
and the Sudan.
CHAPTER XXVI
Across the Albert Nyanza to the
Congo
We arrived in Hoima early next
morning, having struck camp at
daybreak.
The road wound through hilly
but fairly open country until 1t
reached the outskirts of the scatter
ed government station.
Our camp was pitched alongside
OF the residence of the provincial
commissi ioner. Mr.. Grant, who had
invited Colonel Roosevelt and Ker-
nit to lunch with him. We had u
magnificent view from this camp,
for it overlooked a deep valley sep
arating Hoima from the big hills
lying north of the town.
The king of Unyoro had built a
/ fine "banda" for the use of Colonel
Roosevelt, and around it we pitched
our tents. Behind the camp, on the
brow Of the ridge, were situated the
bungalows of the officials, the ma
tive hospital and the police bar
racks. Westward were the govern
ment offices and the Indian bazaar.
, The king of Unyoro and his min
listers of state were at the camp to
greet Colonel Roosevelt on arrival
The king was a tall and distinguish
ed looking native. When he had
come to the throne-by a much less
brutal path, let it be said-the coun-
try was British protectorate; and
no human sacrifices were tolerated
However, according to the CHIEF
medicine man of the BanyOro, the
god was displeascd at such tame
funeral of the deceased monarch
who had reigned before this present
king. He announced that the goo
could only be placated if the first
person who was seen to come along

LETTER FROM RUTH BURKE TO
LESLIE PRESCOTT

Dearest Leslie: You certainly are
having your troubles. think l have
relieved you of one of them, how
ever, l have succeeded in separat-
ing, more or less completely, your
mother from the influence Of that
old maid, Priscilla Bradford.
l expect you have already seen the
telegram Mrs. Prescott sent to her
son, putting forth her side Of the
trouble and her moving to the hotel.
1t didn't affect Jack just the way she
thought it would, for the manager
of the Plaza showed me night
letter from him saying to make his
mother, Mrs. Prescott, just as COM
Portable as possible, to pay her and
her nurse, Miss Anderson, every
attention, and to send the bill to his
office, where it would be promptly
paid by his secretary, Mrs. Atherton.
He stated, however, he had moth
ing to- do with Miss Bradford, and
would not be responsible for any
debts incurred by her at the hotel
The manager told me that when
he sent this telegram up to Mrs
Prescott's room, there was a great
how-to-do. Your mother in-law in
sisted she was sure Jack had not
written the telegram. She said il
sounded like you, and you had prob
ably written it and signed Jacks
name.
This made Miss Anderson quite in,
dignant, and she told the manager
to confirm the wire by telephone
conversation with Mr.. Prescott
charging the same on Mr.. Prescott's
bill for his mother. Jack told him
you had nothing to do with it, ano
insisted that his orders should be
carried out. The manager then
wrote polite note to Miss Bradford
saying he had made some mistake ii
her room, and offering her cheap
cr one, enclosing a bill for f.ftj
dollars for her five days in th(
suite she was occupying.

that then ensued was as. good as >;

BEGIN HERE TODAY

Robert Foran, newspaper corre-
spondent, accompanies the Theodore
Roosevelt expedition into Africa in
1909. They arrive at Mombassa, the
gateway to British East Africa"
and then make the long railroad
journey to their first camp in the
game-cpwded Kapfti Plains.
After "A wonderfully successful
shooting trip in the Sotik country,
the expedition camps for more hunt
ing at farm called Saigai-Sai. At
ter several other trips they invade
the Guaso Nyero elephant country
and meet with some more good
sport. The Roosevelts are given a
royal reception at Moro and En-
tebbe. Now they are in the color
full land of the Banyoro people.
Foran explains how the kings of
these people. when they feel them
selves growing old to the point that
their mentality is impaired, commit
suicide by swallowing a native poi
son.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
Immediately the death of the king
is public knowledge, the many sons
OF the deceased monarch commence
to fight among themselves, brother
killing brother, until only one son
remains alive. The sole survivor of
the battle for the honor of becoming
the next royal suicide then ascends
the throne and attends to his late
sire's funeral.
Several of the lesser queens Of the
dead king are clubbed to death, as
also are the royal horseman and the
royal cook at the palace. All their
bodies are then placed in an cnor-
nous grave, SO that their ghosts
can minister to the spirit of the
king in the next world. 1t is a
stirring adventure belonging to the
encourage Of the king Of Unyoro-al
most as much SO as being that
dusky monarch.
On New Year Day, the Roosevelt
expedition broke camp at o'clock
in the morning and marched some 20
miles to the next camp. 1t was a
very hot day, and we were all glad
to reach the shade of the bandas in
the camp at noon.

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
SNOOZLE AND SNUGGLE AND
SNORE

Nancy and Nick went around and
turned all the town clocks back an
hour
And the Sand Man went to the
moon and asked the moon man to
hold the moon back an hour.
All because they needed few
more minutes till bed time, Tweeka-
nose having stolen the magic sand
again and made off with it.
The Sand Man was quite plea sed
when Mister Peerabout, the Moon
Man. said quite obligingly, Certain
ly, sir! Anything to oblige you, SIR
and put his foot on the brake to keep
the moon from going quite so fast.
Then looking at his speedometer,
Mister Peerabout said, ''The moon is
now going only five thousand miles
an hour. We will be an hour late
tonight"
"Thank you kindly" said the Sand
Man. "If the Twins come, please tell
them that have been to the Dream
Maker Mans at the edge of the
golden forest on the ice-mountain."
So away he went to the Dream
Maker Mans where he lived with his
three sons, Snoozlc and Snuggle and
Snorc.
The Dream Maker Man and his
three sons were just waking after a
long days sleep, for they did most
of their work at night.
"Hey hum!" said the Dream Maker
Man stretching. 81 hope none of the
children were allowed to eat candy
today, except one piece after dinner.
When they get stomach ache they
never sleep soundly enough for me
to get near with my nice dreams of
birds and summer and pretty things.
Wake up Snoozle! Up Snuggle!
Shame on you, Snore!"
II hope Pm not intruding." said
the Sand Man just then, stepping in
At the door. But there's no time to
lose. And he told all about the
= rascal, Tweekanose, stealing his
sand.
"Well that's news!" cried the
Dream Maker Man. Boys. come
here. Wen have to help the Sand
I Man and the Twins to get the sleepy
; sand back. Snoozlc, jump on the
white nightmare and go to Mars.
Snuggle, jump on the black night
mare and go to Venus, and Snore,
: jump on the black and white night
mare and go to Jupiter. Get the
sand hack at any cost. Mister Sand
Man, do you know any magic
words p
Just say Iminy Jimmy" said
the Sand Man. eff you say that the
magic sand will jump right to YOU
May we go along?" asked the
Twins arriving just then.
"Certainly," said The Dream Maker
Man. But you cannot be three
! places at once. Get on behind
Snoozle on the white night mare
Hes going to Mars first
So the Twins julnned on behind
Snoozle who said "Giddap' and the
! white night mare bounded off over
the Milky Way in the direction OF
f, Mars.
/, The Sand Man and the Dream
/ Maker Man continued their search
for the mischievous gnome on the
moon, while Snuggle and Snore put
new shoes on their mares.
There was small hope of Tweeka-
nose escaping.
| And all the time the town clocks
were catching up again. And for all
the Moon Man kept his foot on the
brake, the moon was catching up
too!
| 1t was very exciting.
