Clara Bow Gives
 Views on Movies
Says Film Career Cuts off
 Friends.
1ssaubrs1 '. c Asaass NeIpr,

Success really should mean some thing more than an accumulation of wardrobes, cars and vacation trips, according to Clara Bow. tho little red-headed cinema star who is al- legged to, have more "1t" and fam mail than anyone in Hollywood.
 "One thing that acting success brings is more work. Perhaps that is its most satisfactory regard. If you get more fun out of it than any, thing else, and I do." Clara said Now. instead of standing in line for a chance, as had to when l was an extra girl. can keep busy steadily. one picture after the other, putting myself through the most thrilling emotional experiences.
 Something that success does not bring is simple and natural com- panionship. Instead, it seems to cut one off from people. After success. there still are friends to be made and don't know but making real friends is more of a success than success itself.
 Furthermore. after success there always is the opportunity for growth. From the success of youth. there is the success of mature art to be developed. There is the re- sponsibifity not to misuse chances. A star part in movie is. after all. just a beginning. And ] want to keep going along so I needn't be ashamed of the road"

Queer Complex
 of the air Sex
Inferiority Seen is Copying
 of Mems Manners.

New York, May 21. tP-The adoption of masculine manners by fwonlen is evidence of an inferiority complex, suggests Miss Annie S. Peck, noted mountain climber and explorer.
 Miss Peck, who sought mans education and a mans occupation, believes in feminlty and demon- strates it by tine bit Of lace at he throat, her softly curled coiffure and her narrow high heeled shoes. Twenty years ago, Annie Peck put On knickers. q sweater and a pair of heavy shoes and ascended Mt Huas- caran in Peru. It was hard scramble that established her repu- tation as a climber.
 But the othof day she sat in a chintz-corered arm chair, gazed thoughtfuly al d well-lept hand and remarked that she made the climb only to show that women were just as capable as men.
 ''The trouble with most women, more particularly the women of my day." she said, lis that they con- sider themselves half man if they do something that men do. They think | it's smart to wear masculine clothes, 10 swear. to be very -fellow-well- met.
 That's all very well, but it's an admission on the part of women l that they aren't as good as men, that 1 they know they aren't, and that they are going to try to be just as good by the usurpation Of all the mascu- line trimmings"
 | When it was time for Miss Peck | to go to college, back in 1870, she wanted to go to a mans school. But she was denied admission to Brown, where her father and her brothers were graduated. so she went 70 the l University Of Michigan. In a class Of 1S students. eight were women All of them. said Miss Peck. became i work.
 There followed for the fragile looking girl. whose diminutive size beliod her excellent physical condi- tion, years of teaching school. of studying in Europe and finally a con. i suming desire for travel for explora. l ton.
 In 1895 she climbed the Matter. horn, and in 1897 was the first wom an 10 ascend the Orizaba. Many record ascents were 10 her credit ir the years that followed until her last climb in 1911 of two peaks Of Nit Coropuna in Peru. both of which were first ascents ever made of those peaks.

Porto Ricans
 Ask Suffrage
Women There Desirous of
 Voting Powers.

Washington, May 19 R,-Tw0 blackhaired. brown eyed Porto Ri- can women are storming the halls of congress these days in the inter. ests of a movement 10 obtain suf- frage for the women of their coun. try.
 Dr. Marta Robert, one of the seven practicing women physicians of the island and the head of a large maternity hospital in San Juan declares the entire feminine popula~ tion of her country is bent on ob- taining the vote. She and Miss Rosa Emanuelli have been sent by tho suffrage associations of San Juan to speak at committee hearings on tho proposed house bill giving suffrage to Porto Rican women.
 We are all American citizens" Dr. Robert says. But the men can vote and we cannot. When we wo- mon come to the United States we have only to live here six months and we are entitled to vote, but all our lives we could stay in Porto Rico and never be allowed to ex- press our choice for public officers. The suffrage association of which the two are active members has modelled it's campaign for the vote upon that carried on by the women ! of the United States before the suff- rage amendment was voted. While in Washington the women are guests of the National Woman's party. the organization that>is sponsoring their lobbying.
 Miss Emanuelli is secretary to . Porto Rican importer in New York.
 The bill in which they are inter- ested was introduced in the house by Senator Hiram Bingham of Con- necticut It provides for the amend ment of the act of 1917, providing civil government for Porto Rico. and enlarges the scope of suffrage to in- l clude women.

Women Think of
 Homes for Life
Consider Jobs Only as Temporary Occupations.

Women still look upon jobs as
 transient in spite of the fact that there are approximately 9,oo0,o0o women gainfury employed in tha United States" said Rose Schneider. mann. head of the Women's Trade Union League.
 "Womens primary interests in life and their only permanent ones are marriage. home and babies. Careerists really are in a very small majority.
 With work less and less skilled. because of the machine efficiency of this age. this naturally is the case, Running mangle. stitching seams. punching holes in cans. sorting oranges, and other mechanical jobs can never hold the imagination and interest of women.
 The terrific turnover figured at loo per cent every five years in one industry. makes the work of organ- izinE women a different problem from that of men, who always face the fact of being the bread-winners onad working until they are forced 10 quit.
 American women. because of this transient attitude, never have come forward in great numbers ask ing for organization. More and moro
 women are going back to the fac- tory after marriage, but only tcm- porarly. For. unless a woman can earn a decent salary enough to ems <, ploy help at home. it doesn't pay her to work except when she needs some extras like clothes for tho children. a radio. or money to pay 1 for emergencies"

New Britain herald., 1928-05-21

The home of Sunshine the Yel- low Warbler is one Of the incest lit- tie homes of any of the feathered tolk of my acquaintance. Great pains Is taken in the building of that house. It is snug and dainty and soft. IL is so strongly bound to the branches in which it is set that there is no danger that it will ever be blown loose. Good. very good, builders are these little folk.
 There is no nest that Sally Sly would rather have one of her babies cradled in than the nest of Sun shine. She always makes special search for Sunshine's home. This year, Sunshine and Mrs. Sunshine had built their nest in q bush grow ing beside the old stone wall in the far corner of the Old Orchard, Sally Sly had foun,l if before 1t was half completed. But she had not let them know it. She had kept away from it. Only from a distance had sh" watched those busy little folk. But every day from q dlstarce. she had kept track Of W hat they were doing Once in while she would fly over the corner of the old orchard and as she passed would look down 10 see how that nest was progressing. So 1t was that she knew when the nest was finished and when the first cgg was laid. She waited until there were three eggs.
 Now is my time," thought Sally Sly. and hid where she could talk, advantage of the first opportunity, when for d few minutes that nest should be unguardD1.
 Sunshine and Mrs Sunshine dl1n't intend 10 leave that nest unfuardod for a single instant. But when Red tail the Hawk passed that way, and Scrapper ,he klngbird boldly file" out to attack him. and all the other birds followed Scrappcr for a little Way. Sunshine and Mrs, Sunshine caught inc excitement and went too. When Mrs. Sunshine came hurrying back she discovered at once a strange cgg i'll her nest. Sine called sharply. and Sunshine came hurry ing over. He knew by the sound or her voice that something had gon" wrong. At first. feared that the nest had dropped, but when he pcered in and discovered that big cgg. he un- derstood at once. He looked at Mrs. Sunshine and he saw instantly that she had made up her mind what .sh" was going to do. Well, my dear. what is it?' he asked.
 To begin with" said she "'w e are not going 10 let anybody know what has happened, II is nobody $ business Then We are going to seal that egg up"
 But to do that you will have to seal our own eggs up.' protested Sunshine.
 T can lay more eggs" asserted Mrs. Sunshine.
 Why not build nrs nest somewhere eise? asked Sunshine
 Because this place suits me e.actly," replied Mrs. Sunshine, Be sides the same thing might happen ready laid an egg in this nest and il won't enter her head 10 come back here again. So we'll just build q sec ond story on 'his most and seal 'hea" other "ggs in. We haven't any 'inI'. 10 waste With this. away went

PASS UP THE PEDDLERl

Beware. Don't trade with the door-to-door peddler."
 That is the heading over a page advertisement in an ex- change, signed by the mer- chants of the city.
 It points out that the rule of "caveat emptor" prevails when one purchases from the un- known agent. 'Let the buyer beware" for there are no come-backs. The continued Juccess of the merchant, how ever, depends upon his local patronage, and therefore his reputation for fair dealing. He can be reached, endeavors to provide service and correct mistakes. With the peddler he $ here today and gone tomor- row.
 The advertisement. asks: Do you want to deal with sort of ] 'fly-by-night' trader? Or do you want to deal with your 'teadfast, reliable, hometown nerchants--the men who make ID the list of your best citizens. argest taxpayers, public bene- factors and community build- ers."
 The irresponsible agent ap- pears at the door. He or she shows you samples of goods. You are prevailed upon to buy Or it appears to be a bargain. But you often find out differ ently when the article arrives. Often it is not in accordance with the sample or representa- ons. Frequently it is cheap 5tuff, and entirely unsatisfact- ory. If it is returned with re- luest for correction or return 'f money you receive neither. There is no redress and your investment is lost.
 Many have undergone such experiences, and have profited hereby at a cost. So from the elfish and safe standpoints llone, it pays to patronize the home merchant in preference to the itinerant dealer.

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS
MODERN EDITORS CONSTRUCTIVE.

As time passes, ideas change, and emphasis. At one period 8 certain quality of mind and purpose will seem to be the most essential thing. And then as years pass, it will seem as if 8 somewhat different point Of view was called for. The old idea was good as far as it went, and may still be needed to 8 large extent, but it seems as if something else needed greater emphasis.
 Years ago in running a news paper, the publisher or editor was very much inclined to pride himself on his fearless ness. It seemed to him that his first qualification should be a disposition to fight someone or something, and that he must expect to be at war with this or that wrong develop ment most of the time. It was a useful point of view to a large extent, and as a result of such fearlessness, many evils were exposed and right ed. But all too frequently the newspaper man would develop a quarrelsome spirit that led him to be knocking something all the time.
 Today while the newspaper has no less constant need of fearlessness, the viewpoints of helpfulness and optimism are quite as much called for. The new editor ought to be, and usually. is, a worker for the business, educational, intellect. ual, moral, and religious ad- vance of his community. He does not merely report the news of these activities, but usually takes their success very much to heart, and is con. stantly thinking how he car present thoughts and facts helpful to such forms of prog resS.
 The old time editor frequent ly held himself aloof from com munity movements, and wa, quite apt to have a scoffine attitude. The new editor is : part of all these movements himself. He identifies himself
