A Miracle.

witnessing a miracle. The scene was

concert by the National Symphony Or
chestra, the Capitals premier musical
organization, Dr.. Hans Kinder was
conducting. and the soloist was Gloria
Perkins, girl violinist ten years Of age.
While the audience sat watching and
listening, the mature artists on the
stage made Of themselves a mere chorus
for the child as she summoned from
her instrument harmonies to melt the
hardest and least responsive heart. She
essayed the difficult Mendelssohn Con
certo in e Minor" composition before
which adult performers have been
known to quail, but her victory over its
intricaotes was complete With her bow
as a sword, she fenced with the theme
with the gallantry, the skill and the
hnesse which music lovers customarily
expect only in virtuosi trained through
decades for the work.
And yet the child was making hel
first appearance in the concert field; II
was her debut, and to the task she
could bring only the experience of q
mere four or five years Of instruction

If correcting Mr.. Wile's wishes in the

Obviously Mr. Vile is among the

Too many municipalities and States
have been fiat broke because of over
extending their credit for public works
in the past. Quite naturally these COM
munities and States have hesitated to
go deeper into the red, even though
the Federal Government has offered to
grant them part of the money outright
and to loan them the whole sum neces-
sary. One of the anomalies Of the
Roosevelt recovery program has been
its demand for economy Of government
expenditure on the one hand, while it
has itself launched into huge eX-
penditureS for public works and other
activities Of government on the other
There has been some reason for COM

Apparently the Federal Government
has not been willing all by itself to
hold the bag for the public works pro-
gram reaching into many billions of
dollars. 1t was thought that the peo-

tribute their share of the cost of the
public works designed to benefit them.
OF course, in the end, the people must
pay for all the projects, whether they
be undertaken by the Federal Govern
ment or by State or municipal govern
ments. The purpose back of the whole
program has been to stimulate employ
ment and put money into circulation,
with the thought that this stimulation
would bring back business and make
1t easy for the people to meet their tax
payments.
Critics of the program have freely
predicted that these huge sums loaned
to municipalities and States would
never come back to the Federal Treas
ury. The circular letter sent out con-
tanning the expression Of opinion by
the Tennessee public works engineer, If
allowed to stand unnoticed by the

this argument against the whole pro-
gram. There was nothing for Mr.. Ickes
to do but to crack down Immediately

According to the food served. so be
| IT, or so 1t ought to be. There is no
human need for stretching an hour
meal into two hours.
This thing Of sitting at table too
long is almost as bad as gobbling ones
food with animal precision.
There Is q mean, In this as else
where.
There Is a point beyond which q
dinner or lunch becomes a bore to the
more normal consumer.
| -
The lengthy breakfast Is seldom heard
OF, principally because most persons
have little appetite at that meal. and
also because they do not allow them
selves enough time for any but the
most hasty performance.
II there Is any one meal. however
at which one might dawdle. In the
best sense, 1t Is the first one of the
day, in the dawn's early light.
Here Is an opportunity awaiting these
lelsurely eaters, but not q one ayails
himself Of it. Even those who taIk
endlessly at lunch and at dinner some
now manage TO forget their prediction
at breakfast.
There Is another reason for this
strange haste. The majority of human
beings are in nasty mood in the
morning. especially before breakfast
Even children scowl and frown then.
Many otherwise sweet-tempered per
sons seem unable to manage a laugh
until after breakfast, some OF them sew
eral hours thereafter.
Ten o'clock In the morning Is the
average time when smiling begins.
Maybe II breakfast were made the Slow
meal, instead Of the hasty one, this in
disposition on the part Of so many
otherWise CHEEKY persons might be
changed for the better.
Especially If one happens to be in
q hurry. having an engagement else
wnere, does the slow eater and fast
talker become great nuisance.
Politeness calls for ease, but the en-
gagement Is coming on apace.
The slow luncheon companion
smiles, placidly takes bite, consumes
1t, then launches into q discussion of
some favorite topic.
One looks at the food remaining. At
sne rate he or she-is going, it will be
O'Clock before the last of it is gone.
In between two bites will be a s TO
lO-minute interlude.
How the lunch is ever finished re-
nlalhs mystery, but somehow 1t comes
70 an end, and the diners part to 20
their several ways.
One thinks that one will never eat
again with that person, but even as one
tnlnks so, he-or She-knows that the
idea is mostly 'the bunk" as so many
ideas OF the everyday are.
one VIII dine again, and be bored
again, and swear never to dine again
Such Is the civilian life, the routine
which binds. This is part of it. This
ooresome diner, who talks when he
ought to be eating, is found everywhere:
he Is far from unique; that thought
ought to help some.
There Is no getting away from him.
One can but make the best of him.
After all, he Is to be tolerated If he Is
q good conversationalist. II one must
listen to great deal of talk, while din
ing. 1t had best be good talk. of the
sort which satisfies. The best way to
handle such cases is to steer them onto

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES \. TRACEEELL.

Some persons put a good deal of stress
on the conversational side OF a lunch
con.
Some people, especially women, eat to
! talk.
Men seem to handle this better-they
eat to eat and talk afterward.
That is a difference between 'em.
Everybody likes bit Of talk while
eating. No one would be a peasant, in
tent solely on downing food.
Civilization has achieved many un-
! pleasantrieS and downright nuisances,
but talking with meals is good.

1t Is only when It is carried too far
or too long that 1t gets into the nui-
Sance class.
Even then one party to 1t delights
in 10!
Usually she is the lady with the ready

toe. as they eat but they are more like
men, In that they prefer to talk mostly
afterward rather than during.
X
Men may and do talk OF course, while
eating. but the choice debate is reserved
for the aftermath.
Men settle back in their chairs with
relish after the last crumb is consumed
Inelr heads come closer together; they
get down to the real business Of talk.
The best and wittiest sallies almost
invariably are reserved for the after
dinner speeches.
Men, as rule. like to loll back in
their chairs, cigarette In hand, indulg-
Ing In the creature satisfaction of q
good meal, while they view world at
ease for a few moments.
Usually their conversation deals with
the alarming aspects of business, COM
munlty or Nation. Strangers to the
ways OF Americans at lunch might
wonder at this disparity between WELL
dressed, well-fed persons forever dis
cusSing calamity in heated tones
The more prosperous the diner, the
more sure he is to talk long and loud
about the depression.
=
The real ace OF the luncheon takers
Is the person who says one thousand
words to every bite.
There are some people that way.
They eat SO leisurely that 1t is dIfn-
cult to say when they are eating.
They are talking all the time, al
though they may never commit the
crime OF conversation with full mouth,
Yet they utter so many words that an
observer finds himself wondering when
the other manages to find time to eat.
The meal stretches itself out and out.
but the food on the particular plate
remains.
One rather hopes that the other will
leave some OF 1t. but the hope is vain.
He-or She-intendS to eat every bite
Of 1t.
Indeed. TIE talker often shows every
indication Of asking for more. That Is
the tragedy, indeed. because 1t means
at least ten thousand more words.
Yet even as one bemoans the impend-
Ing order for more he realizes that
there is no help for II.
The truth is. the observer rather sus-
poets, that these are lengthy eaters, too.
Surely there is an appointed length
OF time for any meal.

Who Pays for Public Works {?

The State public works engineer for
Tennessee put his foot in 1t when he
said in a circular letter to civic and
trade organizations in that State that it
was his opinion that communities and
municipalities borrowing money for
public works would not be expected to
pay the money back to the Federal
Government. Apparently the circular
letter was sent out to encourage the
various municipalities to join in the
vast public works program which has
been initiated by the Roosevelt admin
istration as a direct contribution to re-
employment. Because of this express
sion Of oph.ion, Harry S. Berry, the
Tennessee public works engineer has
been summarily dismissed by Secretary
of the Interior Ickes, the administrator
Of the public works program, who at the
same time announced that the munich
palities which borrow money for the
prosecution of public works will be ex-
pected to repay every dollar to the
Federal Government
The Public Works Administration has
experienced considerable difficulty in
getting the program for public works
outside of the Federal projects. under
way in many parts of the country
When Congress wrote the public works
act. making available SO ,300. 600 900 for
the prosecution Of public works. 1t pro-

made to States and municipalities for

amount of drilling can explain such
mastery as this frail. diminutive crea-
ture manifested.
There is an insoluble mystery in such
gift. Whence does 1t come? BY
what unguessed processes of spiritual
inheritance can such child, such an
infant. relate her soul with that of the
long-departed Mendelssohn and give his
music momentary resurrection so mov-
ing, so stimulating. so compelling? 1t
is the riddle of genius which scientists
end historians have struggled to answer
in vain.
No wonder Dr. Kinder stopped and
kissed the little artist on both excited
checks. What can you say?" he cried.
You writing men, what words have you
for thing SO lovely?" The members
of his company crowded around with
shining eyes.
