WIFE'S PART IN
MATES SUCCESS
Worlds Failures, as Seen by
Psychologist.

While every normal man and wom-
an strives to learn the secrets of sue
cess In life, how many pause to con-
slider the causes of failure? DR.. Ber-
nard Hollander, the psychologist,
says the London Daily Mail, analysed
the reasons for failure while speak
ing at the London meeting of the
South Place Ethical society. They
ranged from. sheer laziness and over
,weening ambition to the handicap of
a bad marriage-the wife who is a
milestone round her husbands neck.
"a man fails" said Doctor Hol-
lander IF his ideas are larger than
his purse; if he trusts unworthy peo-
pie; If he puts pleasure before duty
and has too many or too expensive
amusements; If he does not do to-
day what he can possibly put off un-
til tomorrow and If he risks all his
eggs in one basket when heSis not in
a position to watch or control it.
"Some men fail because they are
given to dawdling, indecision, worry
ing or fretting, or have oversanguine
expectations.
"a man is bound to fail If he has
no sense of humor, lacks cordially,
does not know how to approach men,
cannot take rebuff good-naturedly,

does not carry confidence or convic-
ton, and when he is too long-winded
in his conversation SO that people
tire before he gets to the point
A good many failures in life, said
Doctor Hollander, were due to over
active impulse, but the man whose
animal nature was weak had no
right to pose as virtuous, because
temptation did not exist for him.
Success or failure in life depended
also to a great extent upon the kind
of partner in marriage.
There is the naggfng wife, the
clinging wife, the domineering wife
and the dull-witted wife who is some
thing of a milestone round her hus-
bands neck" he said
"There is bound to be failure when
an aggressive, masculine woman mar
ries an effeminate youth; when an
independent and courageous man
marries helpless, stupid woman
and an athletic, vigorous woman mar
ries dried-up bookworm.
Il have known girls to marry
man for such trivial reasons as that
he dances divinely.'
Y Neither society, the state, nor hui
mainly can continue to exist without
the old-fasllioned welded couple
bound together by bond of love and
affection"

which serves to recall him to his fellow-Amerils
cans in every part Of the country, not on just
one day of the year, but on every day.
We, as people, have elevated Lincoln to a
pedestal in the spiritual sense, a pedestal of
love and honor and reverence. So from many
pedestal, in the physical sense, does the bronze
or stone image of Lincoln gaze down at the
people who delight thus to honor him. While it
would be Idle to argue as to who was the greaa-
est American, If the number of statues of him
that have been erected is any criterion, then 1t
seems certain that Lincoln is that man.
For these images of Lincoln, portraying him in
all the varied phases of his career, are to be
found in IS states of the Union, from Massachu-
sets to Oregon and from Minnesota to Kentucky,
as well as in the District of Columbia. Proof
that he has become world-fgure lies in the fact
that England has two statues of him and Scot
land one OF those in this country, Illinois, the
state which gave him to the nation, has the
largest number-twelve Curiously enough, Ken
lucky, the state of his birth, has only three
fewer than New Jersey, New York, Ohio and
Pennsylvania, none Of which have any such spe
cial connection with his life. Indiana, where
Lincoln lived as boy, from his seventh to his
twenty-frst year, has only two and both of these
were erected very recently.
One of the two Indiana statues is especially
significant Among the many images of Lincoln
are representatives of him as the raisplitter the
militia captain, the lawyer, the congressman, the
circuit rider, the debater the candidate for Pres
ident the President-elect the President, the
Emancpator and the orator. All of them show
him in his early manhood and his maturity and
connected with the erection of virtually all of
them was some element of public cooperation.

The Soaring Glider.
(New York Herald Tribune.

There are few records in sport imagines, so well worth having as that which MT. Richard c. du Pont has claimed for the United States There are few sports at any rate, which make one-half the appeal to the imagination made by the sport of piloting the soaring gliderrs. To ride for 15O miles upon the silent and empty air, to mount lightly upon the side of cloud bank or to dip and recover like hawk on the impalpable updraft from @ mountain, to thread ones way hour after hour from one current to the next sustained only by ones skill and knowledge-these are achievements that to make really the master, and not simply the invader of the skies The ordinary aviator dragged into the heavens be- hind roaring power plant as a train is dragged by locomotive becomes an almost pedestrian figure by comparison with the pilot of soaring glider who rides only upon the wings of the wind.
 The sailplane looks more like a bird than the powered airplane (which seldom suggests a bird so much it suggests gigantic insecD, and the Saplane's pilot has to think like a bird Like the skipper of a racing sloop, he is wholly dependent upon the air currents and upon his knowledge of their peculiarities; if the sailor loses his slant of wind however he always wait for another while the sailplane pilot wait at all. In his more magnificent and more hazardous sport he must know and take advantage of every slightest updraft and given good soaring weather his records must be made wholly by his mastery of his graceful art.
 The airplane began in the crude gliders of thirty or forty years ago; but as soon as powered flight had been achieved the glider more or less for gotten until the Germans started seriously to ex- pertinent with it after the war. They began to discover of what amazing things it was capable. The world was startled when they succeeded in making flights lasting three four hours but last August Kurt Schmidt rode the air currents over the Rhine Valley for thirty-siX and half hours end. MT. du Pont, in setting the worlds distance record, rode from Elmira right across the serried ranges of the Alleghanies losing his altitude (and with it his power of continuing) only when he reached the Jersey plain. But it not the air drafts from the mountains it seems that kept him up; it the clouds. He made use of moun- tain only once, he remarked at the end. It seems a cheerfuly disrespectful way to talk about noun tains.

The Vice-President.
(NeW York TimeS,)

When Vice-P President Coolidge was first asked to sit in the Cabinet of President Harding he manifested his customary reticence. One correspon dent after another tried in vain to find out what took place on that historic occasion. Finally of them, in despair asked him where he sat at the table But the cautious MT. Coolidge would not even by so much reveal the secrets of the Cabinet room You will have to ask the President about that" was the reply. John Nance Garner in article This Job of Mine" in The American Magazine is equally discreet and even more selfeffacing. He calls himself the spare tire the national automobile" He has modified the precept that ce-Presidents like children, should be seen but not heard: he is not even frequently as his predecessors. When took office," he declares T served notice that wasn't going to be a show horse and run around to social affairs" Refusing to be a lingering companion of the potted palms. he keep farmers hours" once more.
 His life, he would have us believe, runs in quiet channels. Even the Vice-Presidents vote in of tie is not what it is cracked up to be- since ties seldom. and when they do he may cast only affirmative vote, or none at all Still there is the satisfaction of being able to serve the President in a modest and obscure way as his agent at the Capitol" For MT. Garner, too sits in the Cabinet, and confesses that he is "a party to the discussion of problems the formulating of poli cies" Report has it that his services in this nection are not quite so obscure" he would have believe. Our Washington correspondent has spoken of him affordng the President also a useful barometer of the pubic mind ana thermometer of Congress"
 On the Hill he is an observer merely, not the apostle of regeneration, like of his predeces- sors. But he cannot help observing Those Senate committees-why they so large? Senators can not possibly find time to attend all their stated committee meetings "Over in the House they q almost said 'weo do not allow any member to sit on more than of their important committees . Will the Senate pay any more attention to this modest observation" than it did to the reforming zeal of Vice President Dawes?

ALMOST A UNANIMOUS YES.

The final report of the Literary Digest's poll shows that the countrys voters of all classes and every profession except one strongly aligned behind President Roosevelt than they were in 1892 when he elected. It shows that his policies are approved by majority of voters in every State in the Union except one-Vermont. Business men, clergy, physicians educators and lawyers expressed confidence in him and approval of his policies The students of IT colleges scattered throughout the country did likewise. Only the bankers voted a majority their dsapproval,
 The vote in Vermont was 1892 for and 3,459 against support of the Roosevelt program Vermont of the States carried by Hoover in 1882. In the Digess latest poll the percentage of gain there for Roosevelt was eos per cent his 1882 vote. Twenty-eight States and State Unknown" showed gains for the President ranging from 09 per cent to 1439. These States were Maine New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware West Virginia. Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Min nesota, North Dakota, Montana Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Wash ington Oregon and California Twenty States showed loss for Roosevelt, surprisingly largely in the Southern States The heaviest loss was in South Carolina, 1041 per cent and the smallest in Missouri II per cent Other States in which losses occurred Indiana Iowa, South Dakota, Ne braska, Kansas, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky Tennessee Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas
 In the professions 54.36 per cent of the clergy voted yes; 5623 per cent of the business men; 5683 per cent of the physicians 5319 per cent of the lawyers; and 6720 per cent of the educators, all voted "yes" The bankers voted 47.59 per cent yes minority. In IT States majority of the bankers were for the President and in the other 31 against. Yale, Harvard, Cornell, Vassar, Uni versity of Washington, Dartmouth, Brown, Univer- sity of Virginia, University of Wisconsin, Univer- sity of Colorado University of Minnesota, Wellesley, Stanford, University of Michigan, University of Illinois, New York University and Columbia all gave majorities for MT. Roosevets program, the average being 6435 per cent for and 35.65 against
 It is significant that majority of the eduators of every one of the 48 States and in the District of Columbia voted "yes," and that the student vote in the colleges boiled followed that trend very closely. Of the IT colleges listed Hoover carried 13 of them in the 1892 election and Roosevelt but four. In this poll the President carried all of them. The student ives" vote was 1928 and the mo" vote was 9O25. From these students will come the leaders of the next genera tion It is clear that the New Deal' will go on after today's leaders have passed from the scene.

 Good God! Aline Croyden!"
 Harper could never tell after wards whether he had cried that. name aloud in the shock of discov- cry or whether that accusing shout existed only within his brain, but instinct pulled his head around sharply in the direction of the door.
 There was now an open space where the door had been closed and in that space stood-Aline Croyden. A tiny black hat sat modishly on her shining hair. but her face was tragic. with a desperate purpose visible in the fixity of her gaze.
 Without word she stepped into the room and on the hand that held her gloves gleamed that telltale ring. But the right hand was hidden in the fold of her coat. and looking into her eyes. Sergeant Harper read many things, not the least of which was the knowledge of what she held in that concealed hand.
 She reached behind her and locked the door.
