The Wrong Job

| watched the blithe mechanic who
toiled around my bus; he showed no
signs of panic, he made no grievous
fuss. He whistled Annie Rooney"
while mussing in the grease, a task
that drives me looney, and under
mines my peace. Long since | used
to tinker, at season, with my boat !;
1t made my temper pinker, and
always got my goat; | labored with
hammer and wrenches round and
fiat, and then I'd yell and yammer
and dance upon nv hat. | dished up
language hectic until fell prey to
seizures apoplectic that took my
breath away. But wisdom comes
with watching the years go by in
focks; no longer am botching my
flivver when it balks; my peace of
mind | cherish far more than
precious stones; before I'd see it
perish Id dig up fifteen bones. And
so when my old Lizzie declines to
up and go, no more do | get busy
with hammer, wrench or crow; |
summon the mechanic, and say to
him, Gee whiz, my van is also-rantic
see what the trouble is" And so
am not wearing my temper to a
shred; | miss lot of swearing. in
paths of peace | tread. Far better
pay the plumber to fix your eight
day clock than toll around all sum-
mer and sweat and cuss and knock.
l call up Jinks the joiner to mend
my doors and sills; | send for Copps
the coiner, when needing dollar bills.

n HE narcotic peril is spreading
rapidly among school children.
- High school students. and
even pupils in the elementary grades,
fall prey through the agency of the
dope peddler.
There Is much official evidence Of
this fact. A report of the Federal
grand jury at FL Paso. Texas, states;
1T has come to our observation
that boys between the ages OF II and
15 are being taught the use of mar
cotic drugs; that these boys. once in
the grip of this vice. sell the clothes
that their parents provide for them,
steal and indulge in other petty
crimes, obtain funds to satisfy their
cravings created by the drug habit.
We find that one boy has stated to
officers Of the law that he has about
twenty companions of his own age
who are drug users. Another boy dis
closed that there are forty of his child
companions using narcotics. Peddlers
of drugs are giving it away to some
children to create narcotic addiction,
thus charging the demand for their
Illicit traffic"

special committee appointed by the
secretary of the treasury to investi-

PERIL OF NARCOTICS
-VI-PeriI MUadeS Schools
BY CAPT. RICHMOND P. HOBSON

Of the heroin addicts are comparative
ly young. a portion Of them being
boys and girls under 20. This is also
true of cocaine addicts."
Nearly all American children go
through our schools without obtain
ing adequate information about these
habit-forming narcotics and their
effect on the human system.
Ignorant OF the exact nature Of
narcotics. and Of the fact. that in
diligence is inevitably followed by ad-
diction disease they accept the sug
gestions OF those who are themselves
secretly addicted. or who are engaged
in the Illegal sale Of the drugs. and
thus unwittingly acquire the disease
OF narcotic addition.
DR.. Dana S. Hubbard states that
80 per cent OF the adicts visiting
the New York department OF health
clinic are young men and women just
out OF their teens"
DR.. Amos o. Squire Of Sing Sing
prison says the most addicts acquire
the habit in the early twenties
Mrs. Ellen La Motto. a recognized

IA ri ME. PIERRE BERTON has
iNlI done a King Tut" on the
- memory of Sarah Beruhardt.
This French woman has made a
literary excavation of the private and
professional life of the Great Sarah.
In digging" up the past Of Bern
hardts life, Nine. Berton has given
the world probably the most colorful
and accurate account of this uni
versaI personality.
I felt while reading this book
which is really a history of art, act
ing. politics, war and diplomacy Of
the world during the period Of Bern
hardts life-that l was actually at
the side of this great actress during
her stormy life.
As I studied this book. I could not
refrain from the thought-Would
Sarah Bernhard has been inter
nationally famous if she had led a
strictly moral life as we understand
ii today?
Genius is a funny animal please
excuse the term) that eats at the very
soul of man and woman. And this
animal WIS present III bSIHLdIul.
At times 1 understood, while reading
this book by a woman who knew
Sarah better than the great woman
knew herself, why Bernhard had
so many enemies. Her genius en-
titled her TO a crown of honors, but
temperament and her lax morals, her
terrific temper and her countless love
affairs nearly robbed her of her glory.
And yet Sarah Bernhard was the
most commanding figure the stage has
ever produced. Did it take genius and
queer temperament to produce the
result? I believe you will find the an
swer in Nine. Berton's book.
Nine. Berton has written her story
of Bernhard under the title Of THE
Real Sarah Bernhard Whom Her
Audiences Never Knew" 1t was
translated into English by Basil Woon
and published by Boni & Lveright.
New York.
Marvellous History of Stage
This book is really a marvellous
history of the stage. I should say
the world. Bernhard was a central
figure during the Franco-Prussian
War and she entertained the men who
fought in the World War while she
reclined on a couch. Just that one
idea shows two important mile posts
in her life.

burg, London, even New York and
other cities.
The author gives much space and
attention to Bernhardt's birth. Sarah s
mother and father were not married
at the time of her birth. Words are
not spared when the author discussed
the sad fact" concerning the birth of
Bernhardt's son, Maurice.
Years after the birth OF Maurice,
Bernhard married a Greek by the
name of Damala, who not only made
Sarah his slave, but made her the
laughing stock of Paris, according to
Nine. Berton.
Bernhard loved this worthless man
and she paid the price for marrying
him. This is perhaps the most tragic
period of Sarah's life.
Many COnquests Recorded
In this book, Nine. Berton discusses
the many love affairs" and other
matters concerning the private life of
Bernhard In various relationships
we find such names as Edmond Ros-
tand, Gustave Dore, Oscar Wilde,
King Leopold OF Belgium, Gladstone.
Victor Hugo, Alexandra Dumas,
Georges Clairin and countless others.
/ am sure that much we have read
in the papers concerning the wild
| things the great actress did during
her life was not mere press copy, but
uncomplimentary facts. I will not
mention those things here.
There is lot of literary value to
this book 1t is a truly great biogra-
ply as I understand such things. 1t
is beautifully written and 1 have no
reason to doubt that everything re-
