Your wife is still sentimental,

Her hair may be streaked with
gray, but that does not mean
she is devoid of romance.
You may think she is foolish
and unreasonable when she OBJ.
jects to your frequent absences
from home.
Yet, while this is in your
favor, it presents no good rea-
son why you should not spend
more time with her. does it?
She is not anxious for you to
take her out frequently or spend
money on her in entertaining
her.
She wants your companion
ship. Does that surprise you?
She married you because she
preferred your companionship
to that of any other man and
the chances are that she still
cares more for your society than
that Of any other man.
Don't leave your wife alone SO

This, at least, was the distinct
impression this writer gained Of
Alexander during an interview
with him a few years ago, and
the opinion is confirmed by the
book which he finished just be-
fore his recent passing. The
book, Always a Grand Duke"
is lively with chuckling wit and
sardonic laughter. with the
keeneSt observation of men and
manners.

work for most. don't want any child
afraid or ashamed to come in here to

Told that DR.. Ballou merely sought
to protect him from persons who might
be unscrupulous enough to take advan-
tage of his kindness, Mr.. Stamm said:
Il appreciate that, but I'd rather have

you call advantage of me than have
one really needy child not get the re-
pairs just because he is ashamed to go
through lot Of red tape and ask
for it,
But the school authorities see Mr..
Stamm's idea and they mean to watch
its unfolding very closely. They will
help this kind business man all they can
to help the children they seek to edu-
cate. Max Stamm himself is not a
mechanic, is not shoe repair man, but
business man who "sells shoe re-
building" He once had shoe factory
IN Massachusetts,, but he opened his re-
pair shop here four and a half years
ago. He flies the N. r. AS Blue Eagle

burst into the long stream of pleas.

Max Stamm saw barefoot children
playing In the street last Monday morn

Some of the youngsters weren't sup
posed to be barefoot, exactly-it just
happened that the soles of their shoes
had worn away, and little feet, red
dening from their exposure, padded
softly on the sidewalk.
Now Max Stamm has seen suffering
pretty nearly all his life. You can't be
born in little not -too-Wealthy country
like Latvia and be raised in New York
without seeing it. But here was a suf-

pairing business, operating under the

Max Stamm put his idea up to DR..
Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of
schools, and Saturday the idea went
into action.
Any Washington school child whose
shoes need repairing and who cannot
Afford to pay for the work can have
this work done free at Mr.. Stamm s
shop. DR.. Ballou has set up a proce-
dure for needy children to follow. Chill
dren in need Of shoe repair work they
cannot pay for will receive cards from
DR.. Ballou's Office, following approval
of requests forwarded by their teachers,
through their school principals and sue
perviSing principals. They simply call
with their cards at Mr.. Stamn's estab-
lishment-"Mack and Jack'-and their
shoes will be made ship-shape.

idea of the publicity at all. He told a
reporter for The Star that he didn't
make his offer for selfish reasons, but
undertook to enlist DR.. Ballou,s help in
getting him in touch with the children
who need his work. Why, this isn't
the first time Max had shod needy per-
sons, and he doesn't want any credit for
it at all.
But those children-the poor kids
have their feet right on the ground"
he said. "They can't do anything about
1t, but I can; that's my business
DR.. Ballou'S directions specify that
not more than 20 children on one day
must call at Mr.. Stamm's place between
3 and 5 o'clock on Tuesday and Thurs
day afternoons, but Max Stamm says he
plans to receive them between 3 o'clock,
when they are dismissed from school,
and O'Clock at night. Of course his
shop closes at 6 O'Clock, but he is going
to put an extra man on the job and
add two hours to his working day to
accommodate the children. No child
leaves his shop without soles to his
shoes, he says.
Told about the school superintendent's
directions, Mr.. Stamm worried a little
He's afraid the procedure" will be too
much red tape"

APPEAL FOR AID
Failure of Mortgage Holders
to Cooperate Handicaps

Failure of many mortgage holders
to cooperate with the Home Owners
Loan Corporation still is proving a
major obstacle in the path of Federal
relief for distressed American home
owners.
There are many instances in which
the home owners plight would be
less desperate but for mortgage hold
ers who insist upon foreclosing. In
some of these cases, short extensions
OF time are refused, or the mortgage
holders spurn bonds of the corpora
ton or in some other manner resist
the efforts of the Government to save
the homes of unfortunates.
Usually, however, the Home own
ers' Loan representatives can detect such
efforts to get the property rather than
accept reflnancing arrangement and
their Intervention has been timely.
