port him; he's caused me trouble, and
shame and heartache ever since he was
big enough to steal apples from neigh
boring orchards"
"Hes young, and his year in the city
may have steadied him.
"Steadied him? Steady quicksilver?
It's not steadineSS, it's charm with him
Just as it was with his father. Do you
think I don't know the power of that
fascination, Mark?
1--WE never said much about your
father, boy; in spite of everything I
loved him, but he made me miserable
every day of our married life. He de-
manded everything and he got it. Ted's
the same way. I've seen it since he
was a baby, and I've resented it; there
have been times when I almost hated
him because of it,"
Mark said nothing, but his arm went
around her comfortingly, and after
seconds pause, she spoke.
II didn't mean that exactly, Mark, but
I'm tired of seeing him ride his selfish
way over everything. He's had the best
of everything; you've had nothing. Are
you going to let him take Anne from
you Mark?"
Its not a question of taking, mother"
he told her gently. Tied can't take from
me what I've never had. He smiled
bit drearily. Besides, I'm II years older
than Anne, mother, and I've never really
lived-not as her youth demands to
live I'm an old man by her standards,
and she's still almost child"
mo girl of 81 is child" she told
him shrewdly. "She may be blinded by
Ted's glamour at present, but don't you
count too heavily on her childishness,

She told me she loved Ted
She loves me, too, but she doesn't
want to marry me. Be human, Mark"
His voice was suddenly harsh.
Il am human! love Anne; love her
so much that it doesn't seem possible
I can give her up. If you can think
of any torture more exquisite, don't
want to hear it."
A TED'S vacation drew to close the
speculative look in Anne's eyes
deepened; she had made the disquieting
discovery that Ted'S friends were not her
friends, that their tastes in many things
varied.
Then, too, the very atmosphere seemed
strained; the tension between Ted and
Nora Latham was at the breaking point.
With Mark alone Anne found peace.
Intuitively he seemed to understand
her moods.
I'm afraid I'll find it hard to get used
to Chicago, Mark"
There was a rather wiStful look in her
eyes as she gazed around the wooded hill
to whose summit they had climbed
earlier in the afternoon. Below them the
railroads steep grade descended the side
of the miniature mountain and ended in
a level stretch three miles long that
enabled the trains to kill their speed be-
fore reaching the town. An afternoon
freight now whistled warningly, and the
girl sprang to her feet.
"Gervais is on that train, Mark; Ted
told me this morning that he would be
here this afternoon. Mark"
Her voice rose to a shrill scream OF
horror and at the same moment there
came an unearthly crash as thine

gorgeous moon"
Nora Latham surrendered gracefully,
while Anne, radiant with delight, fol-
lowed the boy to the, shining roadster.
AS they reached the gate, Ted caught
her hungrily in his arms, his eyes
SCI ching hers jealousy
You're different" He looked at her
appraisingly There isn't some one else,
is there, Anne?"
THE pleading of the boys voice, the
romance of the night had intoxicated
her; her eyes glowed softly. "It's you.
Ted. You've changed; you're nicer;
Mark said you would be-"
He looked at her queerly, his face sober,
and then he uttered short laugh.
Mark believes in everybody, doesn't
he? No, haven't changed particularly.
I've learned to slow down for traffic
lights, but still like to speed through
life. I want to live! I couldn't ever
be like Mark; if I'd spent IL years as
he did, I'd have been raving maniac"
His voice softened abruptly. He used

He is dominant, but it's more sheer
personality than tyranny" she inter-
posed quickly. He plays fair
He always plays fair; that's why he's

don't want to. Now I'd never make a
hit being virtuouS. like to rage, and
break things, and do all sorts of things
I shouldn't
But suppose you hurt other people
with your outlawry?"
There's always the fun of making
up" he assured her lightly, but as she
continued to measure him somewhat
aloofy, his lips curved sardonically. If
you're looking for simple virtue, you'd
better choose Mark"
She turned away almost angrily. Let's
ride"
"Of course" His smile flashed out. Il

II don't like to go so fast"
"Oh, but you've never tried it; you'll
love it," he told her imperiously as he
slid behind the wheel
Its a beauty; it must have cost a
fortune"
Il suppose it will in the end; it's not
paid for yet"
"Oh, Ted!" She faced him in distress.
You haven't gone in debt again? First
Gervais, and now"
you don't suppose can buy cars like

silent, he took her in his arms. Listen,

Colebrook Gervais-he's all paid for and

shipped down here the last of the month

please you; the beast always adored you
as much as he hated me-"
As THE car rolled smoothly off, Mark
made his hating way across the
moonlit porch. Unconsciously he gave
little sigh.
You're making an awful mess of
things, Mark" Nora Latham spoke
roughly.

istically he made no pretense of igno-
rance.

Now here is thought worth pom
dering. Whatever one may say about
the weaknesses which democracy has
displayed In these troublous postwar
years, the outstanding fact is simply
that it IS leadership itself which has
failed.
The ills from which the world SUI
fers today didn't arise because the
great mass of people had been blind
and stupid. They grew because the
leaders muffed their opportunities,
failed in vision, and listened too at
tentively to the claims of self-inter-
est.
Protecting ourselves against the

simple proposition. The big job Is to
find some way Of keeping tab on

Our Liberties

America is losing too many civil
liberties-and not knowing it.
At no time" says the annual re-
port OF the American Liberties Union,
has there been such widespread vio-
lation Of the workers rights by in
functions, troops, private police, depu-
ty sheriffs, labor spies and vigilantes.'
More than fifteen strikers have
been killed, 200 injured and hundreds
arrested since last July. Some forty
injunctions have been issued against
labor leaders. The National Labor
Board has lacked the will or the
power to overcome the defiance Of
employers" Only where labor has
been well organized have its legal
rights been respected.

four whites were killed by mobs. Cali

FRESH AIR IN SCHOOL

Now is the time when school chill
dren, studying physiology, hygiene and
all about health, suffer the yitiating
effects of bad air.
It takes q lifetime and more to
learn how much fresh air it is safe
to admit to schoolroom without ex-
posing oneself to the grave hazard
of getting caught in draft.
The health authorities Of the coun-
try are still singing that old refrain:
Get plenty of fresh air-but beware
of drafts or sudden changes!" The
average dumb egg turns the problem
over in his alleged mind for a few
years and finally decides to heed the
second clause in the injunction and
trust to luck or the concern Of other
persons for his pure fresh air. So
what chance has the child in school?
There he is at the mercy of teacher,
superintendent, janitor or the men,
Der Of the board who is told off to
fix the rules and regulations. And
in thousands of schools all these Of
ficials in turn are at the mercy of
the firm that manufactured and in
stalled the ventilating system.
Yankees are all pretty much alike
IN their credulity. The young ones
nowadays, they say, drop the Santa
Claus, fairy tale, stork business at q

higher learning. But the delusion OF
taking cold, while it does not cramp
the enjoyment Of the young ones SO
much, certainly keeps old fogies In
their place. The young Of our day
have less reverence for authority than
the young of past generations had,
and this is an encouraging sign. The
old folks, from lifetime habit and
from sheer incapacity for construc-
tive thinking, are more inclined to
accept notions or theories as facts or
truths II these notions are stated
with sufficient yehemence by some old
party who holds himself or his col
league out as an authority. That is
the reason why the cold delusion still
prevails among the old people.
I am not excepting old doctors and
old health authorities: nor the shrewd
young publicity agents or spokesman
or ghost writer's they employ to sup
port and defend the notion that cold
or damp Is cause Of disease.

Europe Must Realize Its
Present Peril


A Thoughtful man, who surveyed the
state of Europe today, almost might
be pardoned II he began to believe
that the end OF all things was at
hand.
It is long time since the sky has
been as dark as it is today, and it is
hard to see how it could be very much
darker. Remembering what the last
war did to civilization, it is not easy
to contemplate the approach of a new
one without the most profound mis-
givings.
And yet-although this is the most
hackneyed remark in the world-it
Is just possible that things are not
quite as bad as they seem; possible,
that is, that what we are looking at
now is not the eve of general disso-
luton, but that very dark hour which,
according to tradition, comes just be-
fore the dawn.
For If there Is left in mankind any
sanity at all, the present troubles in
Europe ought to be convincing evil
dence that the policies OF the post
war era have been disastrously i'm
practical.
The frenzied tangle of repression,
competitive armament, blind nation
alism, disregard Of economic law and
exaltation of strong-armed dictator
ship Is giving all the world COM
plete demonstration of its ruinous fu-
tility.
It Is enough to show the blindest,
in other words, that the nations of
the world cannot go much farther
along the road they have been fol-
lowing without tumbling, all together,
into the pit.
And there ought to be enough COM
mon sense In European capitals to
pave the way for some sort Of new
deal.
| Today's situation is not like that
Of 1914. In that day the world had
not yet had its frightful demonstra-
ton Of the catastrophe which war
brings to victor and vanquished
alike; nor was the imminence of war
matter of general knowledge, ex-
cept among relatively small group
of statesmen.
Now everyone, down to the most
ignorant peasant, knows that war is
near, knows that If it comes 1t will
mean complete disaster for everyone
involved.
Is one being q blind optimist in
supposing that this general aware
ness may create pressure on the
rulers of Europe that will lead to the
adoption of more sane policies?
In 1914 the world did not realize
its own peril. Today 1t cannot help
realizing it.
And the disorder, the bloodshed,
the menaces which recent weeks have
brought may, just possibly. bring the
statesmen Of Europe to their senses.
