with artificial sunlight, and
ventilated with filtered air, con-
stantly in motion, constantly at
a temperature of So, winter

the orchestra were more com
Portable and healthier in that

The ones that have hay fever
are even free from it while in

A Scientific Principle
The scientific principle in
volved depends more on keep
ing the air in a room con-
stantly in motion than in
actual reduction in the air
temperature.
But at that the American
home in summer is so much
better than it used to be that
we should offer up praise and
thanksgiving. Screens, plumb
ing, shower baths, refrigera-
tors, electric fans and sleeping
porches have made a joyous
revolution. Our ances estors
modelled the homes they built
in the new world on the ones
they lived in in the old world,
not realizing that the American
summer climate is nothing like
the climate of Europe.

One reason for the grand

After reading your letter sew

I couldn't help recalling that
popular quotation, Perhaps it
was right to dissemble your
love, but-why did you kick me

out a line to the girl similar to
which you plead guilty in your
letter, I don't blame her for

people critical and irritable

What this country needs is a
moderate-priced cooling system
for the average house.
The American home is mar
velouSly equipped for most COM
forts. But considering the hor-
rorS Of the American climate in
summer, it falls down badly in
this.
Our heating systems are won
derful. The whole house, rooms
and Railways are kept at an
even, comfortable temperature
in winter, no matter how severe
the weather outside. It was not
always so. I remember my
grandfather'S house - the halls
were the temperature of the
North Pole, the sitting room
that of equatoria! Africa. Nor
is it true of all countries. Win
ter in an English or French
house is a horror not lightly to
be endured.
Summers Are Trying
But American summers, over
most Of the country, are far
more severe and trying than
our winters. It seems strange
that our homes are not equipped
with cooling apparatus as well
as heating apparatus. I predict
that the time for this is not far
off. Engineers seem to under
stand how to do it.

CHAPTER 18

It was in his role of patron
of the arts that the Commit
tee of InternationaliStS,, Inc,
which was one day to be of
the most potent forces in the
young theater movement in
America. came before Rarick.
They were three. A young
fellow named Trigoloff, with a
crooked and strangely powerful
profile, who had written a two
act play in 81 episodes which
had been produced in a cellar
called the Rhomboid Theater.

and her package of cigarettes
protruding from a tailored
pocket.
The third member of this
group, Grafton Davies, was a
young professor of dramatic
composition at a city univer-
sity. His come edy, "Herod's
Mask" had been a success the
season before. Here was a fel-
lew of such abounding and
amusing enthusiasm that it
was inevitable he should have
been elected spokesman for this
occasion.
He had thatch of thick tan

was, trying to foist him. off on
to a vague art-project. AS it
was. Avery had barely time to
spare for these college years.
Rarick was not minded to start
him in overalls from the bot
tom UP. Why teach a walking
child to crawl? But little as
Rarick could visualize his son
cast into his future, the time
was at hand when he must be
tossed, as you would toss a
youngster who must learn to
swim, out into the monstrouS
sea of five-and-ten-cent things.

His resentmentS, he told
himself were absurd. What else
had he to offer? Presently
these three, and the confreres
who spoke their language,
would recede into the 1abora-
tories of their imaginations.
They could talk to one another
from these laboratories. Where
did he, Rarick, come in? Why

Not All Visionary
These three before him were
in the heyday of their walking
trip through the 7yrenees. Their
walking-trip was coming OIL
too.
"Don't think, Mr.. Parick.
that our ideas are all visionary.
We don't propose to drive the
commercial theater out Of 1usl-
ness. Nothing of the sort"
"Now, don't you?"
''No, sir. We propose to sup
plant, in time-with thought
with discrimination, with ge"
MUS, with money-the garbage
of the present commercial the
ater, by giving the people pre-
digested, intellectual, artistic
and entertaining fodder. But
it is not so much a matter OF
throwing out the commercial
theater, Mr.. Rarick, as clean
ing out the Augean dramatic
stables. That is why we dare
to approach YOU with a propo-
sition which will ultimately
grant you full return on your

their faces toward the Eleventh
