A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK
BY HERBERT PLUMMER.

folderol which has been injected into
this debate" is characteristic express
sion. And he proceeds to do so.
The gentleman from North Dakota
ought not to display his lack of knowl-
edge!" he will shout. MY friend from
New Jersey argues in circle; a man of
his abilities should not attempt to fool
us, he will say with great vehemence
HIS personal appearance Is a great
help on such occasions. His red hair
is short. His figure is powerful.
The ranking minority member on the
House military affairs committee, Quin
has knack of delaying or killing those
bills to which he is opposed by intro
ducing facetiouS amendments
Not so long ago an attempt was made
in the House to enact legislation which
would make a person who circulated
harmful information about the status of
a national bank subject to prosecution
Quin couldn't see the just1G in it.
Boil WeeV1lS cause banks to bust, I"
he snorted, not what people say about
them"
So he got busy and proposed an
amendment making the president of q
bank who gave out harmful information
about the financial status of an indi-
vidual subject to prosecution as we'll
He succeeded in having the objection

On the floor Quin spends most of
his time In the Democratic cloakroom
smoking his long-stemmed pipe and
gossiping with his colleagues. He rarely
misses a roll call. In fact, his zeal in
this respect has often made him the
butt of joking friends. One, who has a
voice easily mistaken for McDuff1e, the
Democratic whip, delights in seeing

Braves and Squaws.

The festive Indian has put as much
color into American life as he has red
in his skin. Our forefathers made MIN
skedaddle from the land and set him
off on a reservation, but he is still
teaching the pale face lessons. Our
collegiates, for example, are carrying
out the Indian idea with their rah-rahs
and sports.
We are getting away from the old
notion that man is a brave and woman
a mere squaW. Time was when the
man was the chief of the tribe and the
big noise around the camp About all
woman could do was to cook his meals
and look after the papoose. That was
in the pop and MON period of our
history
In some ways it's woman who is the
brave. She knows how to apply the
war paint an deck out with feathers,
and then she isn't half bad when it
comes to grabbing the wampum. Wom-
an has been gradually catching up with
man on the long, long trail of life, so
that no longer can he work the big
injun chief racket
Most of us are glad that such a
change has come about in the Wigwam.
OF course. 1t must have been nice when
women had only domestic duties and
knew nothing about the struggle for
existence. But it's nicer to realize that
we are about as free as the old braves
used to be.
woman can well afford to cut out the
lently. She can make a killing on the
chase, when it comes to bringing home
the veniSon. just as she can have sew
eral scalps dangling at her belt as the
result of her encounter with men. But
there is no need of starting a war dance
to the music of the tom-toms
No, it's peculiar to woman to work
more Serenely. While she was out after
the ballot she did have to raise a
rumpus. as they did over in England.
But that was only that the men might
sit up and take notice. AS soon as
they saw that women wanted to vote
they let 'em.
Then. too, It seems to me that we
might be a little happier If we didn't
steal so much of the big chief stuff,
but let the man still be the brave.
It's all right, here and there when
woman becomes a governor, is cleo
ted to Congress or takes her seat In
the Senate. But we have Just about as
much of this female brave stuff as we
want
or course. don't mean that women
should continue TO work the squaw
racket. although there are millions of
women who are still doing It, They can
be Just real women without being either
noisv braves or dummy sduaws. We have
vet to find our proper pattern for won-
ems life. We know how dress should
At. but we aren't as cleaver when n
comes to pattern for character.

OUR CHILDREN
BY ANGELO PATRI.

Most of what we call happiness con-
sists of memories. Memories are the
ghosts of experiences. First they give
us power to do and to bear and to
achieve. Finally they glorify the shad-
ows that gather about us and send us
home in the glory of sunset, toward
star.
Peppermints in church and a kindly
old gentleman whose blue ewes smiled
in benediction. The cool sweet smell of
Lavender in granny's room and a vision
OF her sewing in her rocking chair.
Crushed musk under foot in an old
garden with granny holding us bv the
hand and telling about the wee folk who
lived in the thimbles of the foxgloves.
field Of clover and timothy. a yellow
COW with black moist nose knee-deep
IN the shade. A cricket in the old stone
wall and whip-poor- down in the
valley. Old Jack barking a welcome as
We raced home from school.
The smell of freshly whitewashed
wall, fresh straw in new-made stack
the perfume of apple blossoms drifting
thorough Scrubbing with brown soap:
that had been dried in the sunshine
and stretched on the bed without bene-
fit of irons. The old clock striking 8.
A little school house on a sandy hill:
the smell of newly vanished wood. of
thorough Scrubbinfi with brown soap:
of new cedar pencils. The man of
pictures showing a volcano in erup-
ton and a boy and girl whose hats
had floating streamers, racing down
its slope. A blue ticket with For a
Good Boy" printed in old English upon
its fair face.
meadow strewn with gray powders
and punches of blue violetS. Blue pud-
dies and snow-white geese. The feel
of April in the shifting wind.
The feel of soft moss under a bare
foot; the shock of cool water in the
pool. The Joy, breathleSs and exultant.
at finding q May apple in bloom. The
fearful sound of bullfrog in a hollow
log.
The love and strength in fathers
hand as he held our hands in the
scramble up the hill in the peace of
Sabbath morning. The gentlenesS in
his voice as he told us the stories
of the old country. and the new. The
color of his tie, the smell of his pipe,
the trick of twisting his mustache when
he was hiding a smile
The light in the eyes of the teacher
when he handed us a diploma tied with
gay ribbons. The tones in mothers
voice when she said, Home again, my
boy"
Such little things, such pleasant
trif1ing things, go into the fabric of
memory. They are the stuff that we
are made of and they weight us to
earth or they lift us to Heaven. 1t is
so easy to bring pleasure to a chiIds
heart and plant a golden memory. 1t
is such grateful task that I COM
mend it to you.

his last spasms. Strutski. his faithful
valet, took the poor monarch ION his
knee. For two hours Frederick sat with
his right arm around Strutskis neck

with mis- left arm supporting Fred

At 20 minutes past 2 Strutski softly
let down his burden. Frederick the

just the other day, during consider
alton OF the conference report on the
tarin bill, Quin staged one of his shows.
He had the House convulsed over so
prosaic a subject as cement.
When he gets up to speak, he Is
greeted with thunderous applause
But invariably his colleagues quiet down
that they may hear his numerous
cracks. His speeches are punctuated
with cries of Louder" and gales of
laughter and applause, but he is heard
The posture Quin assumes while
speaking Is one of magnif1cence. His
right foot is forward, left back. His
body is inclined backward. He likes
