Her long-lost Poesy and Mirth;

A kingly power upon the race.
And till it comes, we men are slaves.
And travel downward to the dust of

Come, clear the way, then, clear the

Blind creeds and kings have had

Bleak the dead branches from the

Our hope is in heroic men,

CALL FOR TOYS KNOWS 40 SEASONS
 SINCE SANTA CLAUS HAS NOTED TO U. s

NEW YORK, July 2G.--Santa Claus has novel. to the United States
 It seems that ns lound Europe rather disagreeable during the World War and took his uepar- ture at that time. American toy manufacturers demonstrated that more and better toys can be made in factories on the mass produc- tion plan than by hand in a thousand little homes.
 Robert H. McCready, Director of the New York Toy Fair Cham Der of Commerce, who keeps in close touch with Santa Claus as a matter or business and senti- mental interest, told The Asso- ciated Press of this change in international conditions
 Furthermore. he disclosed that December and Christmas have a few days in February as rivals fer interest in the toy business, but it is trade. fair rather than a holiday which interests the Santa Claus and the toy makers two months after the Christmas stockings have been taken down. So great has be- come the demand for toys that the Santa and the manufacturers

 She is a dancer in Limehouso theatre, the manager of which is a thorough villain. She's in love with a Limehouse pugilist and in- CUTS the jealousy of dangerous  woman and her father is at outs with the law.

Most enlphatically her sister stars of the stage and screen do not agree with Mae Murray in her belief that motherhood is injurious to career.
 Like Cornelia, the Roman mat ron, they are proud to exhibit their children as their jewel" having no fear that public knowledge of their motherhood will in any way detract from the box office value.
 Miss Murray feared il would and it was only recently that the rub- lie learned she has sixteen months-old son. She had kept his birth secret, her husband said, because she feared knowledge of it might injure her professional career
 Eva White, famous Broadway star, believes exactly the opposite. She thinks an actress should en- joy her children as do writers and other professional women.
 q have a ourteen-year-old daughter" she said. T suppose that my position is somewhat sim liar to Miss Murray's for my work is musical comedy and danc- ing. But I am inordinately proud of my Loretta and am anxious that she be a success at dramatic school so that we can appear to- gether in a show.
 "IIas the fact that l always have boasted about my big daughter been a detriment to my career? On the contrary, she has given me something to work for.'
 Another case of proud mother hood is that of Ethel Shutta, the comedienne, who. in private life is Mrs. George Olson. She re- tired from the stage upon marry ing, but now that her little son has passed the age of his infantile troubles she is returning to the stage.
 In the film world, Eleanor Boardman, Irene Rich, Leatriee Joy and Claire Windsor are all proud mothers. None of these stars ever passes up an opportun- ity to be photographed with her children.

is not an exposition or exhibi- ton, but a trade fair. perhaps the greatst in the New World. It had its beginnings about D years ago when a few Yankee toymakers took sample rooms in New York hotels to meet store buyers on their annual trips to New York.
 "Playthings from all parts of the world-the products of sey- eral thousand manufacturers ire displayed, with the result that this event has become the most important international toy fair in existence"
 While the trade fair may be reminiscent Of the Old World, toy manufacture is peculiarly of the New Labor and time-saying machinery is employed and toys are made in factories. But the real reason for the removal of Santa Claus and the growth of the industry, in MT. McCready's opinion, lies deeper than that.
 While the World War un- doubtedly gave great impetus to the American toy industry" he said, "it is not by any means the beginning of toy manufacture on q large scale in this country. The real growth of this country's in- dustry is, to my mind, found in the study which has been made of American childhood and in the recognition of the fact that chil- dren really think.
 "The toymaker has all the world to choose from in making his toys, but he must understand the psychology of childhood in adapting the products of other industries to the requirements of his own. With the development of toys which are durable and useful and which have mean ing in the lives of children, they are outgrcwing the category of the mere gifts and are entering into the realm of actual equip ment for children
 McCready has statistics to show that where 20 years ago every one of the less than s. 00O.00O worth of dolls sold an- nually in this country was im- pGrted, today America manu- factures and sells to her own and other peoples more than $20,- 900, ,00O. worth of dolls yearly, as well as more than $15,000,0 900 worth of juvenile vehicles and millions of dollars worth of other toyS.a t~r saf srss @as ssaa

DEMONS STILL HAUNT REGION
 IN SCOTLAND

GLASGOW, Scotland, Oct 29. In the northeast of Scotland belief in black art still hangs on. Witches walk the moors and fit over the fens, or mountains. Spir- its and demons remain chained to stone pillars and rocks. Pain and sorrow may be transferred from one person to another by magical means.
 Until recently Hallow Fires .blazed on the hilltops and Aber- deenshire Highlands. Down to the middle of the nineteenth century the Braemer Highlanders made a circuit of the fields with light ed torches to ward off evil spirits and to ensure a good harvest.
 Such is the significance Hal loween has to the Scottish High flanders. At Balmoral, were King George and Queen Mary have a castle, the witch assumes the form of an effigy of an ugly old woman or witch called Shandy Damn. At Kirkwall people used to leap through the flames to

cleanse themselves from evil in- fluence.
 Dingwall called it's witch-burn- ing ceremonial the burning Of the crate. On the last night of the year a large crate, filled with combustibles and dragged by a horse, was set on fire, while peo- pie danced and shouted about it.
 Stonehaven celebrates the last night of the year with a ceremo- nial called "fireballs." The balls are made of combustibles, well dipped in tar. To each ball a piece of wire is attached, with which the celebrants swing it. As the procession moves up and down the High Street of the old own, the swingers make gleam- ing circles in the night with their blazing fireballs. Many Scottish people today be- lieve there is something sacred about pillars of stone. In Aber- deenshire such pillars were be- lieved to be the abodes of spirits and sometimes of demons. Some farmers place upright stones about their fields in the belief that they are propritiating the gods.
