LETTER FROM ZOE ELLISCTON
TO ELIZABETH SWARTZ,
GENEVA, SWITZERLAND,
CONTINlIEn

The people with whom l live, my
dear Elizabeth, are most interesting.
There is Madame Hamilton, recently
widowed, who always imbues me
with great hope and courage. She
does not seem like the old people
that you and I know abroad. She
does not sit as though her life were
over. She is interested in every
thing that is going on. l already
love her. She is bearing the loss of
her husband most bravely, and yet
Sister Ruth-she' says that l must
call her sister-told me that Mrs.
Hamilton's heart is buried with Eer
husband, that they were the Lost
devoted people she had ever seen.
: Mr.. Hamilton, in dying, left two
daughters, one of whom, although
seemingly the happiest of women,
having everything that life could be-
stow, committed suicide the other
day. The other one is the Mrs.
Prescott with whom l live. She is
married to wonderful man--big,
handsome, jovial,. gay, typical
American man OF business.
! say this with perfect confidence
because his wife's father, Mr.. Ham
ilton, when he died left all his vast
fortune in Mr.. Prescott's hands, as
well as the management Of his great
steel industry.
Mrs. Prescott has the saddest eyes
have ever seen in human face ex-
cept those of the Greek Queen
Sophia, whom we saw that time, dur
ing the war, at Lucerne.
| know that Mrs. Prescott has
just passed through great sorrow in
the death of her father and sister,
but even that could not give to her
deep dark eyes that look of lost
hope and utter dejection' ! see in
them when she thinks she is not
observed.
am sure there is some .misunder-
standing between Mr.. and Mrs. Pres
colt, for Mr.. Prescott has not been
down here since we all came. OF
course, there is the universal excuse
of the American captain of industry

-business-but that would not keep
any man from his wife when she is
as near to him as Atlantic City to
Pittsburg, especially when his wife
is looking forward to another baby,
as Mrs. Prescott is.
Whatever may be Mrs. Prescott's
own private and personal trouble,
she is certainly wonderful to every
body about her and especially good
to me.
Oh, Elizabeth, I know that; God
has been very good to me in letting
my lines fall in such pleasant places.
OF course, your dear mother
would say: "Zoe, my dear, are you
learning anything? Remember every
day you must enfold something
within your mind that will help you
I'd live your life with great con-
tent each year"
You can .saytito her that already l
have confirmed that teaching of our
dear Frahlein Sturner: Money can
not confer happiness"

THE UNOFFICIAL OBSERVER
BY Chester H. ROwell

Hats off to Colonel James A. Logan, officially American
unofficial observer with the Preparations Commission, ana
unofficiay unofficial "fxer" of almost everything else .
In fact Colonel Logan about the most unoiciay OIL

with speech explaining how unofficial he is Then his
strictly personal opinions transmitted also unoficiay by
cable from Washington straghten out the affairs of the
nations.
Colonel Logan is doubtless a profoundly high brow
philosopher things International but he does not want
anyone to know it.
On the surface, he is simply fine fellow, who knows
who's who and what's what and has knack of finding
illogical ways out of logically impossible demmas.
May his strictly unofficial career American represent

ASK CABARETS
BAN CHILDREN
FROM DANCING

Minot, N. D., Jan. 22-Restaurants
and cabarets in Minot where free
dancing is made available for their
patrons are to be asked to each pro-
vide special policeman to supervise
the affairs, with the object in mind
of enforcing more strictly the ordi-
nance prohibiting school children
from attending public dances, unless
accompanied by parent.
This action was decided upon fol-
lowing conference recently of the
board of education members with the
board of city commissioners, during
which time the public dance hall
and cabaret situations were aired at
considerable length, and means of
more strict adherence to the ordi-
ance were considered.
Either Boys or Girls
Mrs. Elizabeth Campbell, police
matron, who attended the conference,
informed the two boards that when
she recently appeared before ses-
|"icn of the board of education, that
she had not presented copy of the
| latest ordinance pertaining to dane
ing in Minot, but rather had in her
possession an old ordinance which
prohibited schoolgirls from dancing,
but made no mention of schoolboys.
The later ordinance in part is:
at shall be unlawful for a dance
hall proprietor to permit school pup
lis Of any age, and all unmarried
persons under Is years of age, to at
t4nd any public dance conducted by
him. unless accompanied by their
parent or parents"

Now that have got jngoes suppressed, and
have take the Japanese ngoes seriously
than they taken by sensible people IN their own country
let face the real problem.
That problem is, buny, the birth rate. Modern SAM
ltion has reduced the Japanese death rate to almost an
occidental Standard while the birth rate remains nearly
oriental.
The result is rapidly increasing poplaon which seeks
outlet The tremendous birth rate of China is still balanced
by an equally huge death but the Rockefeller Founda-
ton, medical missionaries and the spread OF enlightenment
will have changed that in another generation.
Then the teemng millions Of China will seem to be facing
the choice of starvation emigration
The trouble is that emigration will not solve the prob

China would still have just many people, matter how
many emigrated.

died would live Either these will overspread the
earth to the elimination of the less ecund, they must

all their traditional ideals.

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

DO you know of any more wishes
that l can grant," asked the Fairy
Queen as she and the Twins flew
along on Two Spot, the big blue
velvet butterfly.
They were having a sort of wish
giving party, you know.
Nick said, "There's little boy
who lives near US in the country.
often hear him say that he wishes he
could live in the city. He says he is
sick Of the country"
"He does, does he!" exclaimed the
Fairy Queen in surprise. THAT'S a
funny wish. Will you take me to
his house,"
Sure" said Nick. "His name is
Chuck Anderson and he lives two
houses beyond the Cross Roads,"
Two Spot lit in pine tree where
they could see but couldn't be seen.
Wouldn't people have been sur
prised to see big butterfly in the
middle Of winter, with three passen-
gers on his back!
Not was better not to be seen
at all.
Chuck Anderson was out shoveling
snow. He was making a path to the
woodpile. when you're thru shovel
ing and have enough wood chopped

"you may go sled-riding until supper
time"
Aw, shucks!" growled Chuck. 81

"Oh, but he's sort of funny

The Fairy Queen laughed. 81

just whisper in his ear"
Two Spot flew off to the city
where Uncle Charley lived.
can't tell you where the butterfly
landed or how they got into the
house or where the Fairy Queen
perched as she whispered into Uncle
Charley's ear. But it all happened
anyway. And the first thing you
know Uncle Charley was writing a
letter to his nephew in the country.
The letter said: Dear Chuck: I've
been thinking a lot about you today
and would like to see you. am 60
ing to speak to your father about
you coming to live with me in the
city. You can go to a good school,
and study music and all sorts of
things. Yours lovingly, Uncle Char
ley"
That letter and another letter to
Chuck's father went by the same
mail.
And the next day Chuck arrived
trunk and all, at the big house in
the city.
The Fairy Queen and the Twins
were there to see him, although
neither Chuck nor his uncle saw
them!
II know I'm going to like being 8

Little GateMavs To Health

A visitor at a recent child health
conference was startled to hear an
attractive young mother say to her
curly-headed four year old: "Now,
open the pearly gates" The little
girl, who was an experienced player
of the health game, Immediately re-
sponded by opening her mouth and
showing two rows of well-cared for
pearly white teeth.
Speaking of the care that should
be given to the "baby teeth to keep
these pearly gates in good order, Dr..
Knox, chief of the State Bureau of
Child Hygiene, said: 'Two things
are necessary-the right sort of food
and intelligent care. It is a mistake
to think that the first teeth can be
safely neglected on the principle that
they are only the first teeth and will
be gone in a few years at any rate.
The first teeth are as important to
the child as the permanent teeth are
to the grOwn-up. We have been very
slow in realizing the relation between
sound teeth and good health in the
adult, so it is not to be wondered at
that mothers do not realize the rela-
tion between a child's health and the
condition of that child's teeth.
