is committed once for all. I believe
there is a destined mate for each

"You feel that Orestes and you,"
said Helen, "were fashioned and
preserved for each other, the prod

know the feeling well. I've had it
several times. for different men,"
"You don't believe in people be-

of adjustment, so much SO that
rather than be pessimistic about the
accuracy of heavenly patterns, I'd
rather say there are no predestined
couples, no separated parts which
brought together make a harmoni-
Gus whole.
"You can't believe that spiritual

the experience of having two CT
more sincere men in love with you

fate, and when you choose one, the
other will never be convinced that
you knew what your fate was. Very

Hermione. II can't agree; it seems
impious. I prefer to be loyal!'

So" said Helen. Loyalty is an
achievement in our character-you
don't find it growing around you like
a plant, or hitting you like light
ming. There's a world of difference
between loyalty and love.
Lovers are often loyal, from
youth to old age, and their con-

LET me advise you not to justify

"They didn't apply" said Helen,

to shut us out from any part OF

the sorrows and sufferings.

inexperienced, my mistakes never
brought me to harm.
I'm marriage at least I expected
to find reality; living with a. man,
I thought, would bring home to me
the mortal drama in which we are
supposed to be playing our parts.
But I was more sheltered than ever
practically immune to life. I gave
myself to Paris because loved him,
but somewhere in my thoughts was
the hope that our love would ac-
tually be the great tragedy 1t
seemed to promise, and that in the
end I should suffer and feel.
your father will never know
what was in my mind as saw the
anger go out of his face, and that
sheltering look come back into it
It isn't exactly that he has for
given me, but I am not counted in
the same world with other people
I'm a sort of wrath.
"Hermione, the reason I have
such a desire for life, the reason
want you to love life early, is
that 1 have never lived. But i'll my

learned to grasp at strict honesty
with myself and complete frankness
about myself with other people; til
my only hope.
For all of us, I'm sure, insincerity
becomes a screen between life anc
our souls, but it would be particu.

LIGHTS TO PUT
TRUE LINES IN
LINCOLN
Memorial Statues Gro
tesqueness Is Blamed on
Floor Reflection.
RY RAY TUCKER

WASHINGTON, July 14.-Abra-
ham Lincoln has been unfortunate
in the memorials with which the
Federal Government has sought to
perpetuate his memory.
Despite the grandeur OF Lincoln
Memorial on the bank OF the Poto-
mac here, Henry Bacon's statue OF
the emancipation, which the monu-
ment houses, has for years conveyed
an erroneous representation OF Lin
coins face. Many tourists have gone
away from this shrine puzzled and
depressed by the impression the CO.
lossal figure has made upon them,
but unable to explain their disap-
pointment.
1t was the lighting system.
Gave Grotesque Cast
So strong was the reflection from
the floor and lagoon outside that on
bright days it gave a grotesque cast
to- Lincoln's face. An aspect of hor-
ror and weakness appeared on fea-
lures which the sculptor meant to
be benign and firm.
A complete overhauling of the
lighting arrangements has been
made, and will be put into effect
within few weeks. Translucent
slabs of marble that let in too much
light through the roof have been
replaced, and a floodlight system
has been installed on the upper
walls of the monument.
Big Improvement
These changes literally throw
more light on Lincoln. They bring
into distinct relief the lines OF
strength and sorrow. The effect OF
dropping mouth and eyelids, as well
as the soft wrinkles encircling the
eyes, is dissipated. Tourists now will
recognize the Lincoln of history.
The capitals other statute of Lin
coln-that by Lott Flannery in front
of the District Supreme Court build
ing-caused storm of criticism
when it was unveiled some years
ago. 1t was attacked as caricature
that made Lincoln homely ane
gaunt beyond reality. But Washing
ton seems to have become used to
it, and like Lincoln's LONELINESS, II
grows on the beholder after a while

no gainsaying her. For example. she
wanted Hermione to inspect Pyrrhus

Hermione was rebelliouS.
But go on with the story.
CHAPTER I
IF you insist on knowing my rea-
sons" said Hermione, "they are
three, as nearly as can take an in
ventory at short notice. In the first
place, don't love him. In the Sec
ond place, I do love Orestes. In the
third place, Pyrrhus is a good dea
of a brute, from all have heard
and the strong handed sort of hus-
band doesn't appeal to me.
"Let Pyrrhus come; will look a.
him, as you wish, and then he car
go home. All this talk makes me
care less for him every day."
eff my object were merely to ar
range a marriage between you anc

my heart on, even more than your
marriage.

them a better life than we had. The
only way is to put our experience
at their disposal.
But nothing annoys the young 81
much. Now 1 don't pretend to know
everything about love, but I know
great deal more than you do, ane
your three reasons for not consider
ing Pyrrhus seem to me absurd"
"They don't seem absurd to me,
said Hermione, land I'm the ont
who has to decide
"You are" said Helen, "and
want you to decide with your eye
open, without deceiving yourself
I'm not asking you to lose YOU

warning that though you haven
seen him, and though you are now
as you think, in love with anothe,
man, you may wish you belonged tt

It has been the custom among peo- pie from time immortal to commemo- rate important events in some public manner from year to year; hence our own Fourth of July, our February 12, and our February 22
 The most important event within the history of mankind was the birth of Jesus Christ. It was but natural that this most important of all events should be commemorated by the early Christains; and that it should become an established custom thru out the Christian world; and that on Christmas day christian people everywhere gather for an hour or so at the house of God and worship Him in special and appropriate christian .seservices.
 X In accord with this spirit and cus- tom special services will be held at the Seward Community church next Sunday morning at II o'clock. Christ mas music will De furnished by the Jesse Lee Home choir; Mrs. Hatten will give an appropriate reading; and the Rev. c. T. Hatten will deliver the Christmas message.

The paper hints that she proposes
to organize a series of professional

At the Wimbledon golden jubilee

was censured for failure to appear on

play. Later she said that at first
she was willing to play in her doubles
match on that day, but after being
scolded for not appearing for singles

she was too upset to play at all. Then
she withdrew from the singles com

PHILADELPHIA, February l.
John (Stuffy) McInnis, newly appoint.
cd manager Of the Philadelphia Ma
tionals, says he needs only a smart
and active third baseman to lift the
chronic second-division Phillies out of
the National League mire in 1927,
Give me a good man and watch our
smoke" is his prediction.
Returning to the scene Of his former
triumphs as member of the cham
pionship Philadelphia Athletics of
more than a decade ago, McInnis al
ready has bartered and bought new
strength for almost every department.
Thompson Notable Addition.
The most notable acquisition is
George Thompson, leading second
baseman of the International League
last season, who came to the Pills
from Buffalo by way of the Giants
In the trade that sent Catcher Butch
Henline and Outfielder George Harper
to New York. Thompson, a 800 hitter
with 26 home runs to his credit last
season. is down for regular guard duty
at the middle station.
McInnis will play first base when
portside fingers are in the box for
the opposition, he says. AT other
times Attreau, from Norfolk, in the
