A GROUP of Peter Kyne short stories
will here, without doubt, greet a
host Of readers. People like Peter Kyne.
They should. He tells good story. He
deals with a locality that possesses a
natural charm of its own as well as
that derived from the character and
activities of its people. Rough folks,
In the main. Not rough in their
hearts, merely rude in their ways with
words. This Is true of the Kyne stories.
No matter how wild may be the doines
that carry them along, the substance
OF the matter, the influences that give
the decisive turn are always an OUT
come OF kindness and decency and fair
dealing. So it is here in all of these
stories. The first one tells the story
OF the Parson In his clerical career at
Panamint. A big Outstanding handsome
fellow who seems to have a special
liking for the ones who couldn't possibly
go straight. And that's about the way
a parson should feel isn't it? Well,
this one did. To be sure, he had no
padded pulpit, no congregation dressed
up and respectable. Quite the oppo-
site. But this is what he liked and this
too appears to be what Peter Kyne likes,
for he brings the parson through in
great shape. Oh, yes, he died trying
to save some others from an immediate
calamity-but that has been done be-
fore. A very simple story, but beau
tiful. 1t would be. And the others,
10 or thereabouts. are not after the
same pattern certainly, but they are
all projected in the same spirit. I think
they are beautiful. No, may not be
talking about literature, its schools and
so on. I'm merely speaking Of Peter
Kyne, his outlook, and the way he
has Of turning certain aspects of real
life into bully good reading.

A T the Corcoran Gallery of Art as a
special exhibit will be shown this
week and next unique collection Of
hand-bloeked Persian cotton prints.
These prints date from the eighteenth
and nineteenth centuries and represent
probably the highest attainment Of the
art OF hand printing on textiles. known
as "Kalamakars, they serve many pur-
poses in Persia, being used as hang
ings, table covers and for many other
uses-uses for which they are eligible
and no less acceptable today and here.
These printed cottonS are exhibited in
the Corcoran Gallery Of Art because Of
the beauty of their floral patterns as ex-
amples of fine design and craftsman
ship, stimulating and instructive to stu
dents of design and practising artists.
The colors used are vegetable dyes,
fadeless, aud for this reason have with
stood the sunlight and cleansing proc
esses for centuries.
1t is a beautiful collection and ex-
tremely instructive and interesting. 1t
was assembled by r. st. @. Spendlove,
who has recently taken up his residence
in Washington and by whom, for edu-
cational purposes, it is now lent. The
assembling, it is said, covered a period
Of years.

city water officials intend to watch all

The cause of these extraordinary meas

for long time trying to conceive of a
plan to reduce the consumption until
the new water works are completed. A
further ordinance forbids the use Of
water for washing motor cars.

IN NEW YORK

New York. March 2O.-To millions
OF people, Broadway is merely a
street Of play.
They find 1t a care-free dispenser
Of anodynes; an escape from the
work-a-day realities; an anesthetic
against care.

places take on a carnival signifi-
canoe. The ''cathedrals of the NOV

Unfortunately, this is but one side

Washington, March 2O.-Most Of
the new cabinet members, and pos
sibly all Of them. are able and COM
petent men. That probably Is the
best that can be said of them as a
group as they begin their new careers.
The fact that there is no brilliant,
inspirational leader Of men among
them probably is not important. be-
cause Herbert Hoover himself Will
provide the leadership.
One or two may attain great add
ed prestige during their cabinet
service and one or two may fall by
the wayside. but there is 10 general
howl against any one OF them and
most of the noise made has actually
been directed at Mellon, who is now

least-under his third white house

Somehow one is reminded Of the

fame because of their association with
Wilson. Wilson never had any doub,
that he was going to dominate that

could help it, The strain Of approach
Ing war produced two who preferred
to resign rather than to serve, Bryan
and Garrison. and even at the end
Wilson was firing Lansing for what
he considered INSTRUMENTATION.
Hoover seems unlikely to have any
trouble with balky cabinet members,
although there arc some who profess
to believe that he will have trouble
in ever separating Mellon from the
treasury, as he is said to desire to
separate him in a year or so.
The critics of the new president
contend that he would have had a
stronger cabinet il he had been able
| to disregard the recommendations
! and objections Of others. But there
arc certainly two ways of looking at
| that.
| He might have feared to appoint
Henry M. Stimson secretary OF state
because OF Stimson's lack of popu-
/ larity in Latin America and lack of
diplomatic experience, but he didn't

security. He dared criticism of James
Good and Walter r. Brown as sccrc-
tary of war and postmaster general
who owed any prestige they might
have to Hoover himself. And he
knew that there would be i'll feeling
and probably misinterprctation OF
motive when he denied Wild Bill
Donovan his ambition to become at
| torney general. And SO on.
Probably IL takes courage for a
president to name any cabinet at all.
The notable thing about this admin
istration. speaking of cabinets, is that
responsibility will be centered and
kept in the white house and that the
fact that Hoover is the one and only
main show in the executive branch
Of the government will always be
recognized by the people.
