Couldn't Stand
For mr.. Garbo''

Crate Carlo, writing in Liber-

cause she could not bear to have
her husband known as "Mr. Gar

the film colony to call the non
acting husbands Of movie stars
"so-and-so's husband" Miss Gar

my husband lose his identity to
that extent"
Rather than that" she adds, II
should want to retire from the
screen altogether. 1 should want
to forget that l had ever been
Greta Garbo."
In an explanation of her retire
ment from Hollywood social life,
Miss Carlo writes that when her
director, Mauritz Stiller, died, she
was ''like a ship without a rud-
der"
FL was bewildered-lost-and
very lonely" she adds. II refused
absolutely to talk to reporters, be-
cause l didn't know what to say.
By degrees l dropped out of the So
cial whirl of Hollywood. l retired
into my shell. I. built a wall of
repression around my real self and
lived-and still live-behind it.
IF l needed recreation, l liked
to be out of doors; to trudge a.
bout in a boys coat and boys
shoes Most hostesses disap-
prove of this trousered attitude to
life, so l do not inAict it upon
them.
Besides, l am still a little ner-
vous, a little self-conscious about
my English. l feel awkward, shy,
afraid"

WHEN TO STOP ADVERTIS.

When every man has become SO
thoroughly a creature of habit that
he will certainly buy this year
where he bought last year.
When younger, and fresher and
sprinkler concerns in your line
cease starting up and using news
papers in telling the people how
much better they can do for then
than you can
When nobody else thinks "it
pays to advertise"
When population ceases to null
tiply and the generations that
crowd on after you, and never
heard of you, come on.
When you have convinced every
body, whose life will touch yours,
hat you have better goods and
lower prices than they can get
anywhere outside of your store.
When you perceive it to be the
rule that men who never do and
never did advertise are outstrip-
ping their neighbors in the same
line of business.
When men stop making for
tunes right in your sight, solely
through the discreet use of this
mighty agent.
When you can forget the word
of the shrewdest and most success
full business men concerning the
main cause of their prosperity.
When you would rather have
your own way and fail than take
advice and win.
When you want to go out Of
business with a stock on hand.

AGE AND WORK

To The Editor:
The world is barbarous. No
wonder there has to be welfare
society, when certain agencies re-
fuse work to girls over Is and the
world refuses work for food,
clothing and independence to the
capable old. A woman may have
a child when she's over 40, ac-
cording to Gods law, and she is
expected to control that child for
Fl years, according to mans law,
To those who profess to believe
in God and in law 1 say, you are
hypocrites when you won't give
older people work when they are
fit and in need.
The youth movement" is as
selfish a movement as mans rule
before "woman's rights" was start
ed. What is needed today is an
"old folks right" movement.
Much of the immortality today
is owing to the unintelligent, in
human, selfish youth movement
Youth is just as much an affllction
as old age.

ARMISTICE DAY

On November 18th the people of
the whole world will celebrate the
fourteenth anniversary of the end
of the greatest catastrophe in the
history of the world. When the
order to cease firing was given at
at IL o'clock in the morning on
the eleventh day Of November,
1918, there was hardly a human
being on the face of the earth who
did not join in the universal re-
joicing. For there was no single
human being in the world at that
time and none who has been born
since, whose life and whose future
was not affected by the war.
We have called it the greatest
catastrophe in the history of the
world, and that is not an exaggera-
ton. Who could have believed
that the firing of a single hot in
an obscure Serbian village eighteen
years ago last August could have
precipitated a tragedy that would
involve the entire human race, and
from the effects of which we have
not vet recovered? For there is no
possible question that the world
wide economic depression, the in
ternal and international malad-
iustments and financial difficulties
from which every nation in the
world is suffering today, are all
directly traceable to the Great
War.
More than 100000 young
men, the best of their respective
nations, were taken from thc.r
homes and occupations and sent
into the battlefelds to kill each
other. More than eight and one
half million Of them were killed
or died of wounds; another TWEEN
ty-one million were wounded OF
incapacitated. At the end of lie
war the survivors returned, most
of them, to almost hopelessly inn
poverished homelands, burdeneo
with impossible debts and crushed
by unbearable taxes.
We cannot destroy millions Of
lives, billions upon billions Of &C
cumulated wealth, without payins
for it. That we have made a
much progress as has been mad
toward economic recovery in four
teen years is little less than mira,
%culous. But let us not delude our.
selves. We, the people Of the Uni
ted States, although our economic
losses in the war, both in men ane
in money must continue for a
mother generation and even longe
