FOR CRIME

PARIS, May 10 Q.N.s.)--It Is the
foreigners who are responsible for
a large majority Of the crimes com.
mitted in Paris and the provinces,
judging from recent records.
One Of the most curious cases
has been that of the young Lettish
Jew, Burger, who murdered his
benefactor, named Goldberg, who
took pity on the man and made
a place for him in his office. The
salary was not large but enabled
him to live. Eight days later, he
although there had been no diff.
ficulties between them.
Returns to Kill &
He left the office and four days
afterward returned to kill Mr..
Goldt erg. A long trial has failed
to bring out the motive of the
crime and Burger refuses to reveal.
it, although he has been sent up
for seven years. Certain parties
think it might have been because
Goldberg made him take fnstruc-'
ton from a typist who is a Chris
tian.
At MarseilIes an Armenian kindly
offered to act as interpreter in .
case involving seven of his fellow.
countrymen. They were so dis
pleased with the judgment rendered
by the court, that when the case
was over they all vent out and
beat up the interpreter, inju1ing
him seriously. y
In Paris, an italian stabbed his,
best friend and then attempted to
commit suicide.
A Russian has been arrested at
Levallois, near Paris, for swindling
the Bell Company out of 500, 900
francs. He took delivery of motor
oil for which he never paid.

Once considered of great military

PLAY IS LIFE

"Mollie won't keep her doll bug
gy off my train track" shouted
Dave from the backyard.
aDave ran his train over the nice
castle | built in the sand pile" de-
tended Mollie.
Mother was baking cookies and
trying to wash up lot Of dishes,
and disturbance in the yard was
annoying, Of course. First she call
ed out, "Stop your noise, and play
nicely"
Then Mollie came clear into the
kitchen and complained, "Dave
stepped on my mud pies" and Dave
shouted in anger, "Well, l didn't
mean to-"
"Stop your fussing about little
things like that" said Mother inn
patiently. But when a few minutes
later Dave reported that Mollie
had stood on his red bridge and
smashed it, Mother met the crisis
by sending Dave to the basement
for an hour and Mollie to the
sleeping porch.
"You two ought to be ashamed
to quarrel about nothing" was
Mothers final reproof, as she res
cued a pan of cookies from the
oven just about one minute too
late.
Probably there is no mother of a
small son and daughter who has
not struggled with the same prob
lem in terms Of different play
things or the same ones. But the
truth is that these backyard in
cidents are Of supreme import
ance in the eyes of the children.
They're not something to be swept
aside and settled by wave Of the
hand. What Mother calls quarrel
ing, children regard as settle

If the activities and complica-
tions of the playground are not
the practicing of life principles,
then neither are our relations with
the grocer or dressmaker.
Mollie and Dave would have been
fortunate If Mother had stopped
to talk with them about some sim
pie rules Of play and some ideals
of conduct. They might have re-

PRETTINESS, SHARPNESS
NOT ALWAYS IDENTICAL

"There is great difference be-
tween a dress that is smart and a
dress that is merely pretty" says
Jane Warren Wells, in Farm &
Preside. "Every girl wants to
know which to buy" she adds.
'Must apparel be severe in order
to be smart? Must we wear hard,
unfriendly lines and -colors just be-
cause they are in vogue, regard
less Of what they do to our figures
and faces? It would be much bet
ter to yield to temptation, as we
all do at times, and buy things just
because they are pretty. But those
who wish to dress intelligently will
strike the happy medium and select
from the newest fashions that
which by its appropriateness has
a real claim to beauty. They can
assemble all parts with care so
that their costumes will be SIM
pie, with interesting lines, texture
and design, and becoming to the
wearers as individuals.

of prettiness. How true this is when
