NEGOTIATIONS OF A WIFE
The New Yorker.
By HELEN ROWLAND

New York is the City of Eternal
Youth!
When Ponce de Leon started in

it bubbles and sparklcs MS brilliantly
as the paste diamonds in the shop win

In New York. a mans hair may
turn gray with the passing years, but
he is the same snappy. alert, debonair
BOY. with the same spring in his step
and the same light in his eye, at 90
as at 20.
And a woman's hair may turn
henna-colored. but she is the same
vivid. bright-cheeked, Slendcr-waisted
siren. today, yesterday and forever.
A New Yorker NAV lose his teeth,
his job, his wife o. his fOrtune-but
he never loses his optimism, his en-
thusiasm or his POSE.
He may be "out''-but he is never
down. He may be disappointed
but he is never disillusioned!

He may change his dance steps
but he never loses his pep or his fig
ure. He may change the cut of his
coat and the style Of his collar; but
he is always smarter and more re-
splendently groomed today than he
was yesterday-and he'll be smarter
and snapper tomorrow than he is to-
day.

He may change his business a dozen
times but every time you meet him,
he is always just about to do 1.-THE
Biggest Thing of his Life
He may not know where he will get

his sins-but he will never tell you
his troubles or his failures.
He hides his hcartaches under a

tons down the elevator shaft.
The years leave their traces on tn,

In New York. a man can always

Whether he lives beautifully OF

TROUBLESOME NAMES.

Washington, N. c., demands that Washing
ton, d. c., change it's name. The former in
sists that it adopted the name before the ma
tional capital did, and sees no reason why it
should suffer from the confusion of the two,
particularly in the mails.
It sounds very mueh as If Rome N Y, were
to demand that Rome, Italy, surrender its
Yet the sympathy of many small city, suf-
fering from identity of name with large. and
better known city, will go out to the North
Carolina town. There are many such duplica4
tions, and the Inconvenience is always suffered
by the smaller place.
In the matter of postal confusion how
ever, something might be done to straighten
things out People who write sd. c." to look
like IN. C.",-o or vice versa, should be warned
to address their mail more carefully. Or the
authorizations might be changed.
For that matter, it might be well to make
several more changes in the official abbrevia-
tions of various states. AS commonly written,
the symbols for California and Colorado are
often indistinguishable, and there is often
danger of MISLEADING the letters used for Maine
and Maryland, Michigan and Minnesota, Ne
braska and Nevada, Vermont and Virginia,
and almost, any of the half-dozen New
states.

NO PAY. NO LOANS.

New French loans already arranged for in
New York have been held up because of the
failure of the French debt settlement. Action
on several hundred million dollars more, want
ed by the French government and French bust
ness interests, is postponed indefinitely.
This is said to be the direct result OF word
passed from Washington to the private bank
ing interests handling the prospective loans 1t
is probably just as much the result of the
bankers own judgment.
There is tendency in France to regard this
as an attempt at coercion. The United States
government, some French critics say, is try
ing to force France to settle. on Americas
terms, using the new loan veto as club. It is
not necessary to take that view at all.
In private business, it is regarded as mere
common sense not to lend more money to a
debtor who will not pay his old loans. Until
France actually signs a definite agreement to
pay whatever sum the two governments can
agree on, and begins payment, there can be no
assurance to our government or our bankers
or our bond-buyers who furnish the cash, that
the new loans will ever be paid back.
Even in the case of European debtors who
have already arranged to amortize their debts,
and started payment, there is grave doubt
about the wisdom Of further loans. Europe
owes us more money today than she ever owed
before, and still wants to borrow. It doesn't
look safe for America, either financially or
morally-'1oan oft loses both itself and
friend" Neither does it look wise for Europe.

A REAL CHARITY.

Kenosha is one of the cities of the country
which has taken an organized method of aiding
those who need assistance in one way or an
other. Through the -Kenosha Community
Chest and the agencies which are benefited
from it's funds, this city has adopted scien-
tiic method of meeting the problems which
in other days came under the name of
charity" TLey do this by helping these peo-
ple-to help themselves.
Because of the fact that Kenosha does not
leave this question to the hap-hazard gifts of
the kind-hearted, this city is very much in
terested in the statement made by social
worker of large city, near Kenosha, who has
come to the support of just such plan as is
being used in Kenosha under the name of the
Community Chest This worker has been en-
gagged in social betterment work for more
than thirty years. and in the face of the usual
statement that civilized people are supposed
to be "hard-boiled" and materialistic, declared
that more people today support charitable
work than ever before and that they do it more
wisely. The statement follows:
'Twenty-one years ago there was much
pauperism. There is little now. There is
poverty now, but one Of our biggest problems
is to help poverty-stricken people become self
supporting and not be a perpetual burden on
the community
First attempts to organize charitable col
lections and disbursements were characterized
as cold-blooded and lacking in sympathy. To
day they are recognized as the best means of
expressing sympathy 3t

states.

When Vice-C Chancellor Joseph Wells gave
his annual Latin address at Oxford recently,
he spoke his mind quite freely on the subject
of undergraduate follies.
The stylish Oxford bags he described as
more barbarian than anything which the
Dacians or Sarmations ever wore" He "bawled
out" men and women students alike for their
pernicious habit of slipping coffee for hours at
time in Oxford cafes. He attacked whole
heartedly the speed and number of student
driven automobiles in Oxford. "They have
made the street impossible save at grave
peril, and their noise resounds through all open
spaces"
1t is /rumored in these United States that
some American students in some American
colleges and universities need similar scold-
ing. But 1T is questionable whether many of
them would derive much benefit from it if it
were delivered in Latin.

peared from our streets as regular sight and
there is no need for anyone to beg"
Impusive, unorganized charity has its good
points Unquestioning generosity often re-
veals heart of gold in the giver. Unfortu-
nately, however, it may go quite wrong and may
do the one who receives less good than harm.
. Organized charity that interests itself in the
causes and seeks to apply a cure rather than
temporary relief accomplishes more lasting
good And for those sentimental persons who
still regard it as cold-blooded it should be
pointed out that it offers to the warm-hearted
every opportunity for impulsive giving. It
simply provides, that their generosity will
really reach it's goal and do greater amount
Of good than if blindly proffered.

CRIES FOR JUSTICE.

A dastardIyl crime--one of the most co1d-
5looded double murders in the criminal annals
OF the entire country - las occurred within
the confines of Kenosha county.
With almost heinous cleverness the murder.
er or murderers shot to death girl not yet
in her twenties, and man, just on the thresb-
old Of business career, both of them de-
fenseless victims. With cunningness which
thus far has baffled all who have attempted to
solve the mystery, these murderers concealed
most of the clues which might lead to their
apprehension and punishment.
The blood of these victims cries from the
ground that every effort be made to trail the
guilty and bring them before the bar of justice
to answer for their crime If this young man
and young woman we're the victims Of jeal-
GUS sutton or one who incensed for some other
reason went out to kill them and them alone,
Justice demands that no stone be left unturned
to find the guilty. If they were the victims
of a maniac, who may still be at large in Ke-
nosha county, there is added to this reason the
incentive to free this vicinity of such menace
to all. This dastardly crime is a challenge
not only to all officials of the county, but to
all residents of the county to join in whatever
way they can to bring the perpetrators of the
crime to justice.
County and city authorities have bent all
their efforts in an attempt to solve this
mystery The sheriff's department, the
coroner, and the city police have worked night
and day tracing down clues which have thus
far lead to no solution of the crime. Hardly
had the bulet-ridden bodies been found half
hidden along the roadside when the officials
began their work, which they have kept up un-
ceasingy. In this work they have no doubt
uncovered some clues which may lead to the
apprehension of the guilty. That they have
failed is not their fault
This danger, however, confronts all of them.
Within short time, the intense interest which
has been aroused in the double murder
mystery will die down; the metropolitan
papers will call in their staff correspondents
and the tragedy will be on its way to become
an unsolved mystery. Then will be the time
when officials here must continue their work
with even increased vigilance and we feel sure
that they will.
Murder will out" wrote the poet Chaucer,
many, many years ago, and experiences of sub
sequent centuries have proven that his deduc-
ton was largely correct. 1t may be hidden for
years, this poet went onto say, but neverthe-
less murder will out" Someday- perhaps
this week, perhaps year from now-some
slender clue may be found which will lead to
the apprehension of the murderer or murder
ers of the man and woman whose bodies were
found along the highway north of this city a
few days ago. But that clue will have to be
followed up and it is incumbent upon all who
can throw any light at all upon this battling
mystery to aid in it's solution Let every clue
be traced until there can be no possible hope
Of solving the mystery. Let vigilance and
continued vigilance be the watchword OF
officials and all until these murderers have been
brought to justice.
