ARE STUMP SPEECHES PASSING?

In years gone by the stump speaker played an
important part in national political campaigns Can
ddates went the road and took the stump in cities
and towns from ccNst to coast Is the radio going to
rob us of the good old political meetings?
Now candidate sit comfortably before a
microphone and with one speech reach millions OF
persons throughout the country by of the gi-
gantic radio "hook-ups" now used in the reporting
of big events over the radio.
What a difference between this method of reach
ing the public and the method of addressing many
comparatively small groups of persons, one after
another Cay after day and week after week!
Radio has already carried countless speeches OF
! political nature over the air, and it seems very
likely that from now on until the November elections
the radio will be used extensively by politicians to
get their messages over to the public
One difference between stump speaking and ra-
do broadcasting as far as political speeches con-
cerned that while the main attendance at political
gatherings is made up of many friends and admirers
Of the orators the radio reaches friend and foe alike
Another thing which must be considered is that
stump-speaking and radio broadcasting each have
their own technique Of what in radio broadcast
ing are the quick changes of feature the waving of
arms the gestculations that play so large part in
increasing the effectiveness Of stump speeches? Ra
dio requires different technique the voice must do
everything.
Time will tell whether the radio will take the
place of the stump, whether public will in the
future turn to it from it when desirous of making
public utterances.

THE MAN WHO KEEPS HIS WORD
Gsss'ea o zee

1t is like the shadow of a great rock in weary
Land to run ACROSS, as we do occasionally, man who
keeps his word
You may be able to sue on written promises and
ontracts put in writing, which are usually binding,
cut somehow the man who does not keep his word
strictly is slippery customer and it is hard to get
lold OF him, even with piece Of writing.
The fundamental security for a man doing what
promises is, after all, character
II man has character and is upright you are
safer in lending him money than if he gives you a
mortgage on his farm. Doing business with liar is
never satisfactory Somehow he will attempt to Wrg
gle out of his promises.
1t is easy to detect the strictly honest person.
When he owes you money he does not avoid you but
openly and frankly pays you something on account
right along i he cannot pay the whole amount.
The test Of the fundamentally honest man is his
punctuaty IN meeting his engagements or in frank
ly explaining to you why those engagements cannot
be met
The cos1rts are full Of people trying to evade
their plain engagements.
A man who is in debt sincerely tries to meet
that debt whether it hurts him or not It is very try
ing and very disturbing to our faith in human nature
- find person who is always looking for abis
always seeking explanations for not doing as he sale
he would do.
The good loser, the man who loses and yet is
cheerful is the nan who is after all of the chief
pillars Of the social fabric

THE LAST JINX DAY

Friday, July thirteenth, will be the last Jinx
Day of the year
For some reason, Friday, the thirteenth has
been regarded as particularly unlucky day. This SUI
perstition has hung where many have been forgot
len. Not SO long ago there hundreds Of super
stitions, and all were implicitly believed Now, with
the masses more generally educated there fewer
superstltions and fewer persons take any stock in
those that are left.
AT one time man was sure hard luck would
come his way if black cat crossed his path if he
happened to walk under ladder. And sometimes
hard luck did come his way but it really was not the
Llack cat or the ladder that was responsible 1t
lis own mental attitude. Expecting disaster, he met
it!
A great sign of progress is the lessening of SUI
pestioni And one of the strongest of these old SUI
pe1sttions is that one which pertains to Friday the
thirteenth AT time many people would not take
chances or make investments or get married on Fri
day, the thirteenth. They seemed to think it was
cay of calamity-a Jinx Day.
Make UP your mind On Friday the thirteenth,
that it is not different from any other day It's the
mental attitude that counts. When Friday the thir-
teenth, comes around, there are many people, no
doubt who will watch their steps pretty closely One
consolation-they are greatly in the minority!
Most certainly pedestrians have their rights
out when the other guy is in an auto-it's hard to
get close enough to use them
These short skirts flappers wear have made
American men handsome-or, perhaps "good look
ers" would express it better

til the man called Slug came back
into his life as he had come into
his fathers, and taught him how
to steal.
He stopped now before a florists
shop. The window was banked
with rare blooms, colorful, ex-
quisite But he had eyes only for
a Sheaf OF roses gathered at one
side and toward the back. White
roses.
Once he had stolen white rose.
Not fresh and sweet like these but
a faded rose from sidewalk stand
down the East Side. He had
looked out of the black misery that
was his at the time and had seen it
and somewav it lad softened his
pain. Though even now. after so
many years, he could not guess
why. Anyway he had taken 1t and
it was the single flower to rest
upon the box in which Herself lay
so very still.
Because he could do nothing
more for her then he wished to
buy these white roses now: to hold
them out as a sort of offering TO
that bleak past.
Yet what should he do with
them? Ma Cleary would think him
crazy if he sent them home. Nell!
White roses for Nell?
He considered a long time ana
when finally he went into the snop

Avenue address.
The name on she delivery ticket
was Miss, Mary Smith.
CHAPTER 15
No card was in the box but
Mary Smith knew who had sent
the roses. The only thing which
puzzled her was why.
Ivory tinted petals sweeter than
a song, gentle as 81 prayer So
beautiful, so very pure. why
would a man whose spirit was
bound in the black chains of
crime buy such flowers as these?
why did he wish her to have
them?
Curiously enough she remem-
bered the look that crossed his
face when she mentioned his
mother. She recalled. too, his
instant OF wistful hoyishness
when the red head had dropped
= in thought over something she
had said.

That's that. Is it enough.
The Sheik. wiping blood from
cut lips. hastened to declare it
sufficient. But. say" he wbined,
What you want TO go anu act
like that for, Spook? You could
break Il guys nose. easy"
Danny laughed with the others.
The Sheik's vanity. which led
him to take the most rigid pre-
cautions lest in some rough and
tumble his colIar-ad features be
marred. was standing joke
among them.
Nevertheless they treated him
with fair amount uf respect
for he was highly accomplished
in one class of job, the "cold
finger work"
This branch Of the bandit pro-
fession has to do with separating
women from their jewels and fire.
quently the success of it depends
upon the personal attractiveness
Of the worker. And since many
women who possessed jewels

gang-seemed to find the Sheik
thoroughly attractive, the Spooks
tolerated both him and fis vanity.
Danny left them. still lauahing
and made his cautious way to the
street. 1T was rarely that he
ventnred out Of the neighborhood
that, too, precaution adhered
TO by sagacious gunmen--but
now he walked over to the sub
way and rode down TO Columbus
Circle. With no more than a
single quick look about he then

door and they could hear only
the murmur or his voice with

When he came back he was
red and sputtering and he ad.
dressed the Spook over the heads
of the others. ''They's someone
been blabbing. Looks like

out string OF rare, round oaths,
every one falling like match to
touch off an ugly temper.

ever had seen him. But as
O'Rourke was above them, stand

Man was over O'ROurke and they
thought of him with a sort of
superstitious awe.
There were things, Of course,
