again Wilson stood alone in front OF
the gray old house.
Doris was scarcely conscious of the
closing Of the library door behind the
departing Nina. Minutes passed, she
never knew how many. All her

derfuI." or perhaps, Got a terrible
crick in the neck looking at the pic
lures on the ceiling of the Sistne
Chapel" So with such cards pouring
in from the average person who travel,
it is gratifying TO know that one per
son has written colorful articles OF
her travels.
Mrs. Herbert Slayden CIarkson,
who has Travelled several times around
the world, is writing a series of arti-
cles for Woman's Viewpoint, a maya
zine edited and published by women.
The articles of Ruth Kelso Clarkson
begin in the June number, "AdvertiS-
ing in the Flowery Kingdom" This,
as one may gather, is a story of ia
pan, light with amusing incidents and
heavy with the scent of joss and wis
terra. She tells of Yokohama, the
character of the Chinese, an alarming
restaurant where one was positive of
the freshness of ones seafOOd, tea at
an Oriental palace. The article SHIN
mers with geisha girls, and silk, and
jade, and brass, and lacquer. The
July number contains, In Pagoda
Land" About Burma. with the sill
yer music OF a million bells twinkling
from the temple spires. She writes
of the Shwe Dagon at Rangoon, the
largest pagoda in the world. About
this article is the jeweled atmosphere
Of sandal wood, and wild grapes, and
amber, and white doves, and ivory,
and myrrh. Both articles are illus
trated. One with the sampans. and
junk boats. and jinrikishas of Japan,
the other with Burmese dancing girls,
(that look very little like dancing
girls) and a picture Of the golden
rooted pagoda.
1t is nice to know that the San An
tonians who are gifted are employing
their talents.
There is a new book that comes in
black box covered with bizarre rcd
and blue peoples. The book itself
has a Bohemian cover that looks like
tied and dyed silk. A cover of orange
with weird blue streaks running about
in a careless artistic manner. This
book is written by Russell Meriweth-
err Hughes and is called the Star Rop-
er. 1t is a collection of poems with
the Jagged poignant beauty Of the
scarlet cactus bloom. Her poetry Is
western-burning with the Texas sun.
She writes of paint ponies, and buck
skin. and SPANISH senoritas, and coy
otes in the desert moonlight.

Faithful Trolley

Elsie wanted to drive me back, but
I refused. The trolley runs right
by her home and it is only few
minutes walk from the car line to
where 1 live. j did not see any
reason why she should go to such
extra trouble.
In a jiffy I was trolleying TO my

pleasure. VIA child Of five would

Sister, / never realized that small

Elsie attributes her unusual radio
success to EKide radio batteries

battery highly and declares that it
