vanced to the stage Of modernity
which BELTS the age. Nowadays
children expect gifts at Easter time
as well as Christmas. and It can
really be called a second Christmas.
OF course. the candy eggs and the

Christmas is incomplete with but the

Toy shops are showing the most
adorable things for children and the
gifts displayed are bewildering in
their array. Chief among them is
the modern dolls house. No longer
IS this a square with funny little
divisions and paper furniture. Oh,
no.! The modern child, with his
powers Of observation trained to the
nth degree, demands that he play
with the things which are familiar
in every day life. Therefore. the
dolls house has assumed the proper
tons Of accuracy. in keeping with
modern Improvements.
Tiny elevators. which operate when

would startle our grandparents.

Indeed, the dolls houses look as

the Sarah that audiences saw
and worshipped for her true great

the stage not only the glamour of
Tosca and Fedora, but the poign-

The other was the Sarah OF life,
an equally skilled actress. This was
the Sarah who. as Henry James said,
adopted the trade Of celebrity"
whose scandals and eccentricities
and extravagances made her the
most talked Of woman in the world.
1t would be a shame If this Sarah,
more striking to public fancy, were
to ~overshadow the real Sarah, the
Divine Sarah, whose art was more
to her than life itself.
Bernhard was the most amazing
combination of human attributes.
The poet Rostand epitomized her as:
THE inpetuous feminine hand that
wields scepter. thyrsus, dagger. fan,
sword. baubie, banner. sculptor's
chisel and horsewhip-it Is over
whelming!"
The everchanging chameleon pat
tern Of the Divine Sarah's moods
was indeed overwhelming. Loyalty
she had-to her friends and to her
art-yet contracts were to her
nothing o than scraps to be cast
aside if better opportunities arose.

ANNIE LAURIE:

nEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
- After I had gone with a boy
for nearly half a year another girl
zones along and writes him notes
asking him to take her to places.
This flattered his conceit and so
he has left me for her. He told a
friend that he liked us both equally
well.
How can I win him back? What
would you do in a fix like this?
MEL
ME: What would 7 do? I'd simply
1f4 ignore the whole thing. my
dear. If he is so easily led as that,
his friendship really isn't worth hav.
ing. So just show him that you are
not left sitting in a corner because
he has decided to go with someone
else. Go about with your other
friends. Be friendly when you meet
him. but do absolutely nothing to try
to regain his interest. In this way
you'll probably interest him more
than If you deliberately set out to
win him back"

the palace in London to the south of England.
I was interested in this particular statement in
the newspaper account Of his transfer: "The
location for King Georges recuperation was
chosen largely for the mental benefit it was
hoped he would derive from its proximity to the
sea, which he loves, and where he was trained
as a sailor when a prince"
