SYNOPSIS: Julian Lakes plan to effect his daughters marriage to Nicholas Thaye- turns the m herl N0rc against the young artist. Yet he would, as her penniless artist father declares, provide her home and end the wandering which has been her lot since her mother died. Now they are living in a villa lent them by a Mrs. Meyers, and Julian has even borrowed from Nicholas to pay the cook! After Nora nurs- es Thayer to prevent the loss of his injured hand, the revealed bitterness of his life draws her cIossr to him. Perhaps her in 'ttrest is partly due to his brother. Jonathon, by whom she had cnce been attracted. At any rate, when he plans to leave she asks him to remain.

 He looked extremely handsome, his dark head flung back, his wine colored eyes glowing, his sensuous lips smiling at them. But Nicholas thought him a fool; and Nora meeting his eyes felt silent tremor of laughter pass between them.
 His eyes fingered on her and she knew he was seeing her between the candle flames, for his express sion changed as he somberly stared at her hair, her throat, her hands.
 The dim old room, her fathers mellow voice as he embroidered his theme. the bumbling of a heavy beetle knocking against the wire netting of the window all remain ed in Mcra's consciousness as part of the magic of that hour.
 Magdalenna brought in the des- sert, a confection of chestnuts and cream that was her special pride. The dinned was over; Julian was pushing back HIS chair and saying.
 T want to talk to you, my dear fellow You'll be gone tomorrow. This is our last chance"
 She watched them step out of the window, stood watching them as they paced the garden together, the bright sparks of their cigar cites like fireflies.
 She would never see Nicholas Thayer again after tomorrow. He would forget her in his work, and she would forget him. Oh, yes, she would forget him!
 Hard as it would be, she would put out of her mind the memory of her humiliation before him. How cruelty he had ignored her plea to remain and thereby protect her against that uncertain something she fearedl
 She turned away and knew that some one had come noiselessly into the room behind her. It seemed to her almost as though she had spoken the thought aloud and he must hear the silent cry of hers.
 It was Nicholas.
 Nora, I won't go tomorrow" was all he said.

 In Noras troubled eyes there was desperate appeal. But Nicholas de- liberately broke the e m Ii on thread of her talk.

 He wandered eff and Nora fell herself shrinking with humiliation She begged him to stay and he hac curtly brushed aside her plea.

 Some one had twined garland cf laurel leaves about his battered head. Nicholas was leaning dowr staring into the broken face.

 Perhaps it .was trick of the light that made the grimace so ful of mirth and scorn seem for a mo. nient like her fathers face.

During the coming year, political leaders viii
probably learn that the people will be more inter
ested in issues than in men during the next
campaign.
Political leaders spending much time and
thought on candidates for offices of Governor and OF
President while the people anxously are looking for
party that will write for them new declaration OF
independence from the tyrannies Of the present era
1t does not matter much whether one man is ia
vored at this time above another candidate. It
does make great deal of difference as to whether
one of the two parties furnishes some opportunity OF
solving some very great problems.
In this state there is the outstanding question OF
whether the public utilities shall continue to the
government and to burden the people with their ex-
tortions and exactions Public ownership of govern
nent is a live question. That might even lead to
public ownership Of utilities.
In the nation there are the outstanding questions
Of prohibition and unemployment
The people demanding settlement Of these
problems. They are tired of evasions and expert
ments. They want relief.
IDEAS on the question, who are strong enough to
force parties to take the part of the people.
Hard times turn thoughts of voters to real issues
In prosperity the majority Is indifferent But this is
different time. The people awake even if many
political leaders seem to be asleep.

IT SEEMS TO ME BY H BESSS

NNE old reproach against revues
~ was swept away last week when
1.-THE Bandwagon" opened at the
New Amsterdam theater in New
York City. This will make it little
harder for colulnnists from now on
at least, for this particular con-
ductor.
Once year, and sometimes twice,
I have been able to assemble piece
around the accusation that the
atrical managers never include the
purchase of a joke in their prelimi-
nary expenditures.
1t was easy to contrast the
amount of money which went for
silks and settings and satins and
high-kicking young ladies with the
meager expenditure devoted to pro-
curing funny situations and sayings.
But I won't be able to write that
column again for year or so, since
the answer lies in "The Band
wagon" Here, for the first time, or
very nearly that, is a show in which
the writing men have led the way

and the scientific architects to fol-
low after.

nursing, administration, and main

Thus the hospital able to buy food
IN large quantities and store it,
can cater more cheaply than one
without adequate storeroom facili-
ties.
Modern electric devices in the
kitchen enable the hospital to OPP
crate with many fewer employees
than are necessary when the dish
washing, vegetable slicing, and
similar procedures must be done by
hand.
Cost of nursing is being reduced
by group nursing and by similar
plans for dividing the service of one
nurse among several patients.
Cleaning in the hospital demands
a considerable number of employees.
If corners are rounded off, if ra-
diators are recessed properly, and if
the building is equipped with the
cleaning question in mind, a much
smaller number of ward maids and
orderlies can be used than in in
situations in which this point has
not been kept in mind.

T. expression is the rightful priv
lege of childhood, but that is i'm
possible if and when the parents be-
come so bent on satisfying their
own whin1s, caprices, and appetites
that they shirk the job.
1t is a curious thing that, with all
our generosity in providing for the
education of children at public ex-
pense, we should be conniving at
their neglect through easy divorce
laws, and should be encouraging a
type of life which deprives them OF
a normal home atmosphere.
The thought prevails that we can
discover a system which will permit
us to evade personal responsibility.
It goes without saying that some
systems are better than others, but
no system ever was or ever will be
substitute for honest, conScien-
tious interest.
That is especially true of those
who bring children into the world.
No organization can take the
place of mother, apd no efficiency
expert can do fathers job.
A good many people seem to be-
ieve that the public schools should
act as parent and wet nurse, or
that weekly visits by a social
worker can patch up the damage
of a broken home.
Society is being asked to do a lot
of things it never was intended to

Public and Private Schools

1t is widely taken for granted that private schools
are hotbeds OF conservatism. They commonly are
regarded as adolescent country clubs where social
snobbery prevails and reactionary doctrines are
preached
But as matter Of fact. one can make out far
better case for liberal teaching in the average private
school, The private school rarely subservent to any
local political system machine. Neither positions
nor teaching methods dictated by partisan politics
There is comparable amount of shopping by
patrioeering organizations There are no absurd pub
icly prescribed exercises in the way of flag and Con
stituton worship. such often are forced on public
school authorities. There is much less Of a tendency
toward espionage on the part of powerful pests.

Perhaps his case is even more

The damage resulting from lack

rected.

babies in this country are turned
loose to forage for conscience, mo-
rality and sense of values for
themselves, because mama or papa
can't agree on the way to play a
hand of contract bridge or have
seen a face at the movie that suits
them better, we can expect an in
crease of child delinquency and
crime.

for twenty years, we shall continue

NNE of the greatest decisions in the history of the
~ supreme court at Washington is the one setting
aside the Minnesota gag law, which authorized the
state to put gag on the newspapers for had it been
upheld the government could have proceeded to muz-
zle the free speech of the individual and stamp out
liberty as everybody has understood it in America.
The newspapers are not given to lie about any
body; they compelled to adhere to the truth and
If they do lie about anybody they are liable in dam
ages, just an individual is liable if he speaks
falsely about another.
The danger in the Minnesota gag law was that it
placed official crookedness beyond criticism it made

crook the fiction of former centuries THE king

them out.

idea of reducing the number of

ting the cost.
Patients used to be sensitive on
the subject Of wards in hospitals
People Of the middle class who were
not extremely free with their funds
felt that in times of illness they
had to make an extra effort to have
a private room in the hospital.
In modern hospitals, arrange
ments are being made to care for
two, three or four patients in q
room especially adapted for the pur-
pose, with sliding screens so that
almost a maximum of privarcy is
furnished at minimum of expense.
Large wards. containing from ten
to twenty beds. now are found only
in charity hospitals, and even here
there is a tendency to build the hos
pital in such manner as to provide
some privacy.
When four patients occupy one
small ward, they are able to save on
the cost of nursing and on the other
costs associated with hospital care.
