SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.
The Trusted Stranger.

The Trusted Stranger.
When you feel sense OF weary ap-
prehension,
And the shadows gather near from
every side,
From friends to whom your troubles
you might mention
You turn away with shrinking, yet
with pride.
And as your mood grows desperately
solemn,
You turn to print; and there with
heart aglow
You find advice presented by the col
Abundantly by folks you do not
know.
They tell you how to have a home SO
cozy,
And how to get both into debt and
out.
They give you rules to make loves
pathway rosy
And remedies for whooping cough or
gout.
In offering the needed information
Acquaintances may prove a trihe
slow,
But fine advice that has no limitation
Is offered by the folks you do not
know.
Adjacent to a beatific ballad
You find suggestions for a wounded
heart;
Likewise a recipe for dressing salad
And tips on how to make a motor
start.
A friend might often solve q serious
question,
But strangers make the more allur-
ing show.
We take our hopes Of peace and good
suggestion
And trust them all to folks we do
not know.

1t quotes Alexander Bakshy, the

follows:
"A deep-rOOted prejudice
against all things British is un-

the masses Of the American
people.
"This prejudice is of a curl

prejudice that exists in Eng

In England it is the more edu-
Gated section of the public that
objects to American accent,

to regard as lacking in culture
and socially vulgar.

Since this is British day for
a Washington columnist, 1 might
close with an interesting quota
ton from Leslie Rees, the Era's
dramatic critic. He spanks his
fellow critics for not having
energy enough to go out into
the province a few miles and re-
view performance remote from
the dramatic center. Then he
issues this advice and belief:
ut is time hat dramatic
critics forgot that they are
Overworked. Lately it has be-
come customary to talk about
criticism as though it were in
finitely less preferable to street
sweeping or cOaEpicking.
Actually every dramatic
critic knows that he has one

and that he wouldn't part
with it for bags of gold"
