Right Thinking vs. Right Doing.
(New York Herald Tribune.

It seems to us that right-thinking citizens ought to stop talking about rght-thinking citizens. When a man uses that expression he usually adds consciously "of which number I example" Right-thnking citizens rare, if indeed they exist at all For what do pause for reply, is right? If knew we'd tell every right thinking citizen.
 In his Sunday sermon the Rev. Dr. Will H. Houghton said that the police had the support of every right-thinking citizen" What the muddy thinking editor thinks is that this country needs is lot of right-doing citizens. For think ing any crook will tell you, is hooey.
 Nor do we believe that the Rev. Dr. Houghton is right-thinker when he says "The gangster is la coward well a criminal" That there are towards in gangdom believe. just as there are towards in the army the church, and the stage not to add merchandising, journalism law and agricul- ture. But many of the gangsters, in spite of their
 armaments and their shootings in the back, are brave in many ways. The physical courage of
 some of them is enormous; and the consciousness of guilt that keeps most of uncriminals is
 thing that does not inhibit the average gangster.

 The working of the Prohibition law is peculiar in many ways A high Treasury official in the be- ginning said that simply preposterous to attempt to enforce it literally If all the officials he said tried in good faith to enforce the law as it reads he would have all of his friends in jail-and would be lucky if he did not get there himself.
 Never was a outrageous proposition foisted upon a civilized country than the Eighteenth Amendment and the laws that have been enacted to enforce it. It is so silly that it is interna- tional joke It has discredited the good sense and good faith of the American people

Morse-Trained Hurting Pair
 Bring $25 ,OOO from Chicago

DALLAS, Texas, Sept. 15.-When Hap Morse, manager of the local Texas league club, says a player is good the Chicago White Sox are inclined to believe him.
 Morse developed Vic Frasier, big righthanded hurler, who practically nas been the salvation of the Sox pitching staff this season. The White Sox wanted more of the same.
 The American league outfit re- gently spent $25, ,O0O to get two addi- tional Morse products. They were Lou Garland, 210-pound right handler, and Ralph Erickson, 19O- pound southpaw.
 Garland, who represents $15,0o0 was to report immediately, while Erickson, $10,000 product, is to don White Sox uniform next spring
 Garland, a big blond hurler, is the owner of binding fast ball, change of pace and sharp break ing curve that has worried Texas league hitters all season.
 Although his record is not i'm pressive-nine won and nine lost Manager Hap Morse is confident Garland not only will make the major league grade but will rank with Frasier as leading pitcher
 Garland was with Dallas in the spring of 1880, but was turned adrift. When Morse signed to man. age this years club, his first request was for the big fellow.
 Bring him in," he told Bob Tarleton, business manager, and we'll sell him before the season is over"
 Erickson, a promising youngstar, pitched for Shreveport this sea- son but belonged to Dallas. Hurling for cellar club, he had a winning average Of almost 500 and a mo- run, no-hit game to his credit.
 He has proven as effective in day games as at night, eliminating the possibility that he is "floodlight phenom.

SHORT JACKETS GIVE PRACTICAL
 NOTE TO MODE
By Diana MerWin

PARIS, Sept. l5.-The short fur jacket, both pert and practical will be favorite wrap in madame $ wardrobe this fall.
 Reaching only to the waist or ex- tending to the hipline in flared peplum effect, it is warm enough to be worn with snug wool street frocks until snow falls.
 The woman who dresses on a limited allowance will find that its abbreviated cut provides a thrifty way to salvage last winters worn fur coat.
 Astrakhan, galyak, seal and leop- ard are the favorite pelts for the short for jackets. Virtually all Of them are designed with small roll collars or scarf effects which fit closely about the throat.
 Sports models are generally de- signed along straight lines, but town coats vary from those which end in a snug fit at the belt to those flaring out at the hip bones
 Sleeves are often puffed a bit at the shoulder line.
 The jackets, which are generally worn with little tilted hat trim med with band of the same fur may match or contrast in color with the frock which accompanies them
 A brown astrakhan jacket, de- signed with modified muttonlee sleeves was worn with a tobacco brown wool dress at the recent fall style exhibitions.
 A waistlength leopard jacket ac- companied lapis luzuli blue frock while a little flared hipbone jacket of black galyak was worn with a garnet red wool frock. Many man. nequins carried tiny barrel muffs of fur to match their jackets.
 Short jackets of rough pebbly- weave wool also promise to be pop ular for early fall. These are de.

Potter Likes a Cane
But He Finds That Carrying One Is
Difficult in New York

Russell Potter, formerly in the
faculty here, now at Columbia
University in New York, sends
us a letter about canes. He uses
a split infinitive in his first para
graph, which may be because he
has quit being an English pro-
fessor and become an impresario
Or may be because he wants to
demonstrate a courage with re-
spect to infinitives which he con-
fesses he did not display with
respect to canes. He writes:
l am moved to express my
sympathy with your views and
to confess my own cowardice in
not asserting my own cane
mindedness in Chapel Hill g.
Now it is too late, for | am in
New York, where one may carry
or wear cane if he is SO mind
ed with no one to even SO much
as glance at him,
But cane in New York is
more of nuisance than a dog,
On the Drive, to be sure, one
may swing a cane and get some
satisfaction in it. But for the
most part dragging a cane on
and off busses, in and out of
subways, through the crowds Of
people, herds of shoppers, bevies
Of luncheoners, and covieS of
unemployed-Oh no, this is a
very dispiriting business indeed
But in, Chapel Hill ah !.
There, Sir, one may trudge an
Irish blackthorn, one may swing
an English ash, one may clip a
slim natty malacca. And there
are real pebbles and dandell0n
tops to be ficked, and pleasant
stone walls to lean against while
one draws hieroglyphics in the
path.
We may disagree in many
matters, to be sure. For ex-
ample you do not like rhubarb,
| do; you cannot stomach sauer-
kraut, | enjoy it. . But in this
matter of canes, Sab, we stand
as one.
Sincerely yours,
Russell Potter.

finitive here; please don't show

Chestnut AUailable.

60 much has been said about the passing q
the chestnut tree as a result of the blighA
which apparently has doomed the tree in thu
country, that even the manufacturers and other
users Of chestnut timber have turned from the
trees and allowed much valuable timber to rot
away unused In the woods.
This taboo ON the chestnut is unwarranted
IN the opinion Of Department of Agriculture
experts, who are endeavoring to halt this trend
until such times as the shortage of chestnut
shall really become acute. Much of the timber,
although standing dead in the woods, is stin
valuable as cores for furniture and for the
manufacture Of shipping containers poles piles
and other SGch uses.

Princess Astrid was his guide 1t was good
beginning.
But the Queens guiding hand did not stop
there. Quietly she arranged for another meet
ing, six weeks away. Queen Elizabeth took
Prince Leopold with her to Paris where, as
usual, they stayed incognito at the Hotel
Meurice. Princess Astrid likewise came TO
Paris and the budding romance continued to
bloom-as 1t bound to, in Paris, IN the
Springtime.
1t was but natural that Princess Astrid, on
her way home, should stop of in Belgium. All
this the Queen kept out of the newspapers. For
a blast Of publicity and gossip at the wrong
moment had been known TO wreck many
royal romance.
T LIKEWISE was the invitation for the prince
to visit at the country estate Of Princess
Astrid'S parents in the south of Sweden kept
a secret. The prince invited for a fort
night but he fingered on from July to August.
1t got to be rather difficult. Other visitors
were kept away, and when they did motor over
Unexpectedly, the royal guest was hidden in
the garnet or cellar. When the prince came
again to Stockholm in September he travelled
third class and carried his own suit case.
No one suspected the romance, and when the
engagement was officially announced by the
King of Belgium. it took the world by surprise.
On account of better weather conditions, the
wedding was planned for the Spring But
this did not suit the young people, who were
madly in love and would not remain separated
The wedding took place in November and was
respondent with princes and princesses, four
Kings all over six feet tall and gorgeous In
brilliant uniforms with decorations, three
Queens ablaze with historic court Jewels.
With this marriage safely out Of the way,
the Queen was able to concentrate her atten-
ton on the future happiness Of her only
daughter, then 10 years old. That was four
years ago, and It was at this time, in May,
1926, that had my hrst opportunity Of meet
ing her majesty.

was a Danish princess, as a shining example,
there was precedent in picking another, Scan
dinavian princess as bride OF the Prince OF
Wales.
Moreover, she was his favorite type-which
means his o&poSite-a tall brunei, and very
lively and v1vacious. Astrid had sister, Prin-
cess Maerta. now married to the Crown Prince
Of Norway, and destined to be Norway's future
queen.
Anyhow, here were these two lovely prin-
cesseS, and the Queen could go up there and
look them over without any one being the
wiser. All unSuspecting Prince Leopold accom-
panied his mother.
Their fortnights journey away from Belgium
passed unnoticed, the newspapers stating on
their return that her majesty had been visiting
hospitals in Scandinavian countries. AS the
Queen is q keen student of the latest methods
in medicine and surgery, this sounded plausible
enough.
GO well camouflaged was their entire sojourn
in Stockholm that not even the manager
Of the hotel where they stayed knew who they
were. Rooms had been reserved for Madame
de Rctty and her son, M. de Retty, from BruiD-
sells. Not even title was used, though 1t was
generally supposed that the quiet lady was
countess.
The day after arriving, she notified Princess
Ingeborg, mother of the Princesses Astrid and
Maerta, that she wished to call. It was cold
clustering March day-a perfect day for coy
tea table set by an open fire. Immediately it
was noted that Prince Leopold "fell" for the
younger sister, Astrid and she for him. 1t was
q case of love at first sight, quite in the ro-
mantle tradition.
Sensing the situation, during the rest Of her
stay the Queen left the young people alone
Accompanied by Baron de Groote, Belgian Min
ister to Sweden, the Queen busted herself visit
ing hospitals and scientific institutions.
She urged her son, who had never been to
Stockholm, to 60 sightseeing. And, Of course,
