BUTTERED TOAST

At a lunch counter the other morning
young man was having coffee and
toast. 1t was good toast, crisp and well
buttered, and in appreciation of its ex-
cellence, he remarked to the companion
beside him. This is fine! | see now
why it is that so many people at this
counter eat buttered toast"
The waitress caught something of his
words without understanding his mean
ing. and turned suddenly.
whats the matter with the toast
she demanded.
Her reaction had been automatic,
founded on habit Out of her expert
ence as waitress she knew, in the same
sort of way child knows that fire
burns when he sticks his finger into it,
that no one ever had anything to say
about the food unless it was to criticize.
She had heard the word toast" If the
man at the counter was talking about
his toast, she knew there was bound to
be something the matter with it or else
he would have had nothing to say.
An insignificant and homely incident,
but illuminating, like one of those sud-
den glimpses from the top of an ex-
ceedingly high mountain when the mist
which has obscured the vision lifts for
an instant and then settles down again.
But in that instant, one has seen into
vast distances and though the mist set
ties. the vision remains.
Could it be possible, one asks oneself.
that that is my attitude towards life?
Is it possible, that like the men who eat
food at that lunch counter, daily process
|sions of plen doubled over plates and
cups and saucers. comment comes only
with criticism? Do we talk about things
only when we object to them? Do we
have so few words of appreciation for
excellence that these words. when they
do come are mistaken for criticism too?
1t is we'll worth thinking about
Of course, there is an diverse side to
this question of appreciation. This is
the ground of the flatterer. He bestows
his honeyed words automatically and
while he may in sense mean what he
says, he inspires distrust, and his ap-
probations have less worth on that &C
count, though they are soothing and
pleasant and agreeable to the ear. But
the commentator that comes from sim
cere appreciation of any work or any ef-
fort should certainly be spoken. If we
like the buttered toast, let us say so with
the same certainty that we would express
our disapproval it the toast was not
good.

candidates being offered bride by ;

The Teapot Dome deal was then faI
in the future.
Nobody had told her that members
OF the Presidents cabinet ever resigned
to accept positions with corporations
that stood to profit by information and
influence to be gained only by men in
high government offices.
She had never attended convention
at which there was riot resulting in
the shooting to death of one man, the
stabbing OF another and the arrest OF
fifteen persons.
She had not regarded it as possible
for the head OF government depart
ment to send kilograms in code de-
signed to shield man accused or sus-
pected OF being involved in a scheme to
rob the government and the people.
She had much to learn-by sad ex-
perience-before her political education
would be complete.

so THIS IS POLITICS"

Once upon a time an American woman,
newly enfranchised was attending the
first political meeting in her experience.
She had been pretty much OF home
body, but had carried an exalted con-
Iception of governmental affairs. To
her. politician" had meant man of
profound intellect, one who had bitter
critics because he was envied; and "poli-
tics" was field OF great public service.
She had deep desire to "help." BY
nature she was altruistic. So, when the
right of suffrage was conceded to her
sex she felt it her duty to tear herself
away from her exacting household duties
and take a personal, and it possible eff
fective, interest in politics. She must
prove herself a good citizen.
The political meeting which she was
attending was marked by various man
euvers which she did not understand.
But she could sense the spirit of un-
dignified rivalry that pervaded the hall.
Her face famed with indignation when
one speaker yelled '1iar!' at another.
The outlaws and catcalls puzzled her.
Fright sprang into her eyes as two
men. one welding a chair and the other
4 heavy shoe, began to stalk each other.
She was baffled again when a group OF
men, muttering epithets. quit the assem-
bly,.
What did it all mean. She had
thought Finally she smiled wanlv
philosophically, as though on the verge
of tragic understanding. Then she said
slowly, with pauses between the words
"So-this-is-politics.'
| One thing, though, she did not. OF
course, give her the whole story. She
had heard, deploringly that men didn't
take enough interest in politics. They
would rot go to the polls when schoo
election, for instance. was on. Too many
spoke OF politics i'll facetious vein, a:

CHAPTER ii.
The Changeing.

The girl in the Marie Antoinette
bed stirred without opening her eyes.
One sensation at time was enough
for her waking consciousness to grasp
and the first which came to her was
the cool, slippery feeling of the
sheets.
She turned her head. burrowing
into the pillow that seemed so
strangely soft, and delicate elusive
perfume greeted her, not as sweet as
fresh flowers nor sharply pungent
like cologne. yet partaking of u
myriad scents blended into a perfect
whole.
A silvery chime like the twinkle
of faint. fairy bells, stole upon the
air and the girl listened dreamily a;
first then with a sudden tensity ms
the notes died away, and slowly, eau
tiously she opened her blue eyes.
They widened in stare of utter in
credulity.
If this were a dream it resembled
nothing she had ever seen in all her
life. A ceiling painted like the 'palest
blue sky with fleecy pink-tipped
clouds floating round on it; walls

UNSUSPECTED USES

To date the radio has been regarded
largely as a means of pleasure. Every
night millions "listen in" to musical
programs over the land. So its develop
mert and use in various other lines has
been subordinated to that. The other
day. however. manufacturer in Connec-
ticut was indebted TO the radio for being
able to collect bill.
Last summer an actor who lived over
on Long Island crossed the sound to
Connecticut and bought some parts for
his motorboat engine from the manufac-
tuter. He took the parts along with him
and had the bill sent TO him in care Of
a yacht club on Long Island, but the
bil1 was never paid. Again and again,
the manufacturer sent the bill. He wrote
to the secretary Of the club but the let
ter was not answered. So the manufac-
turer concluded he had been done"
Not long ago. however, the manufac-
turcr was listening to program over
his home radio set when he recognized
the name OF the man to whom he had
sold the motorboat parts. 1t was an
UNUSUAL UdluC dllu IL was lllGll bSlllS
called as a member OF the cast Of a
Broadway musical comedy which was
being broadcast. The manufacturer
wrote to the actor at the theater where
he was playing and two days later re-
ceived a check and an apology. The
account had been forgotten and none OF
the bills had reached him as the yacht
club was closed for the season soon after
the purchase was made.
With that as beginning, there is no
telling the uses to which a radio may
be put of more or less useful or en-
tertaining character, missing persons
found, stolen automobiles located. and
all sorts OF odd tasks accomplished. Only
the other day the radio was instrumental
in rounding up "Tige,' President Cool
idge's pet tom cat, which is good news
for cat fanciers, but hard on wandering
cats.
