By ELSIE ROBINSON

Yet you take the crumpled page
of mans days and say, THIS
Is all there Is to the man.
1t isn't all there is to the man.
It's only the imprint OF his
/, laundering, curious hand.
1t does not show the far
and flaming destiny for which
that hand was made. 1t does
not show the Wise and Endur-
ing Force that guides that hand.
why do / believe this? This
is why
cause the love and courage
and ambition in it seem to achieve
no end.
feel hopeful about life for
that very same reason. Ii love
and courage and hope found
their consumption in this little
place, within these scanty years,
would indeed be willing to
deny the worth of such a petty
plan, or such a trifling God.
But just because love and
courage and hope are too big
for our experience and our ex-
plantations, believe there Is
a greater life provided for their
contamination.
The quarrels and futile strug-
giles, the suffering and sin and
the black fog Of depth-these
are the blots upon the page,
my friend.
But the fierce. hunger for some
shining goal, the tenderness that
struggles in our british shapes,
the never-ending clamor against
sin and shame, the faith that
still endures despite the bill
lion years of death-tllese are
the proofs that Something bends
above that page, and having bent
and written for little while.
goes on to yet another school
beyond mans ken.

urge which struggles to survive.
Everywhere there Is injustice and
cruelty. You speak as IL a plan
was working out. It isn't. This
earth is getting nowhere"
All right, brother. IN agree
with you. I'll admit that we've.
made little spiritual progress
since the day Mr.. Stonehatchet
lunched on Mr.. Bearfangs' shin.
I'll even go farther and admit
that we may never get far away
from the Stonehatchet ideal and
that life on this earth may al
ways be confused, painful
struggle.
But that doesn't prove there is
no God or plan.
That simply proves that both
God and men are too big to work
out their plan in a few crude
years of earth life.
You find human society a
failure.
But. maybe human society was
never meant to be a success.
You point to the feeble prog
ress Of civilization. But at best,
civilization is a scheme whereby
men may live in harmony in this
life. But may there not be an
infinitely greater life In which
men shall dwell, for which our
most perfect civilization would be
utterly inadequate?
In short, why test God or the
Plan by the limited scope Of
earth's surface and mans years.
This earth is not all there is.
This life is not all there is.
Man is more than voter. He
is a wandering spirit that learns
as it wanders. During that wan
dering 1t learns the secret of all
! things-of Love and Beauty and
Power and Truth. It learns these

NEGOTIATIONS
OF A WIFE
BY Helen Rowland

We Women
TT1IS Is the time of year when
the Easter bride begins ito
pray that her fruit and her mar
riage will "jell.'
Nobody loves a fat woman
much. But, after all, q living skel-
eton is not exactly t.the bone you
love to touch!' And razor-like
elbow can put out the eve of love
as quickly as an overstufted
ankle.
No man can be your honest critic
and your honest lover at the same
time. The eyes Of love are too full
Of star-dust to see any flaws in
woman.
Only a rank amateur will try to
win one woman by Boosting OF
others; the true artist at that sort
of thing makes every woman feel
that life before he met her was a
total blank, and his heart q vacuum.
A woman's love, like q cat. has
nine lives; but. every time a man
shocks her aesthetic possibilities It
loses one Of them,
No woman realizes what a hu.
man Motion Counter" her hus'
band is, until one suddenly needs
a match, rubber-band, a postage
stamp, a sharp pencil, big hand
kerchief, a corkscrew, fountain
pen. a cigarette or change for
IS bill.
Nowadays q mans belief In
women's love seems to disappear
with his milk teeth, and to reap.
pear, again, with his false teeth.
Just about the time a society
woman gets the children trained
to calling her current husband
Daddy the marriage goes
dead" and she has to start 1t all
over again rehearsing them for a
new one
Love is what makes a man ap.
pear bIissfully happy when a wo-
man is mussing up the precious
wisp Of hair across his thin spot.
