being first a subtle appeal to SYM

slow and patient winding of such
tendrils as flattery. shifted re-

In this case, however, 1t is not

Miss Ginger has fastened herself
Ia whole group of otherwise SEN
sible women, in fact.
She began by a forlorn little
tale of hard luck connected with
business, pouring it into the ears
of one woman with such telling
effect that this woman immedi'
ately passed Miss Ginger along
into the bosom of the group where
she was kindly received. The
group then set about the task of
helping her along with her work.
And since Miss Clinger-like
most of her sort-has a friendly,
ingratiating personality it was
some time before those women
realized that they were doing most
of her work while she sat back
and enjoyed herself
They found themselves taking
over other responsibilities as we'll;
seeing that the girl was fed reg
ularly and that her board was
paid on time and that such re-
creation as motor rides, concerts.
movies and SO on were provided
frequently.
It was all very well AZ long as
they all worked diligently at the
job of looking out for Miss
Ginger. But at the first sign OF
tagging she was taken with
mysterious and distressing illness,
soaring them all out OF their
wits and keeping them a-tiptoe for
hours on end-winning the girl.
of course, the attention she natu-
rally covets. And these attacks
appear to be recurring, coming
about whenever she finds herself
let down a bit by the crowd.
And now they find themselves
all bound round with Miss Cling
er's demands and they want a
little time to themselves now and
then and they don't know what
to do about it. They fear she
will die If they drop her, yet
not one wishes to spend the re.
mainder of her life as a prop for
this vine. And what they ask,
shall they do?
Drop Miss Ginger, Of course.
It isn't only that she is a men,
ace to them but they are the
worst thing that could happen to
her, taking over, as they do. the
work, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,

girl.
The sooner Miss Ginger is left
to face reality the better it will
be for herself and everybody else
as well.

FOR ROMAN
ALPHABET

Chances are now looking bright
for the adoption of the Roman al
phabet, in time. by all the lead
ing nations of the world. The
first step was taken by Turkey,
where the parliament decided on
the modern form of the letter in
preference to the old Arabic
which the Turks adopted when
they learned to write. Japan also
announced that it, too. would
adopt the Roman type in a few
years, while Turkestan, Usbeki-
stan, Tartaristan and Buchara are
said to be preparing to follow suit.
There has even been talk of China
falling into line-which would
doubtless mark the end of the con-
quest for the kind of letters which
most civilized nations now use..-
