THE chill query in Sybil's gaze
L made Louis squirm a little, and
that annoyed him. He leaned for
ward and began persuasively:
It's the simplest thing in the
world. An hours plane ride each
way, fifteen minutes stop In be-
tween, and it's all over. The good
it'll do you both would be worth a
lot more trouble than that"
The lady uttered an indignant
gasp.

never been so insulted in my life !
AS If our beautiful love were some
thing to be twisted and played with

fine and wonderful and | won't have

"Now, you mustn't look at it that
way" he soothed. Nobody respects

those things we can't escape. The
public is on the moral warpath and
they're after people as well as pic
lures. It's well known about you
and Bruce; can't you see what a
master stroke it would be for you
to marry him now? And you're
really past the stage where it would
seem like a concession. Five years
together is enough to convince any
body of your independence"
She was silent a moment; then:
DO you really think it would be
all right?" she inquired anXiously.
II mean, with Bruce. OF course

Hes okay," Louis broke in, with
a smile of triumph; I've talked to

''You fool" she screeched at him.
"You wretched, meddling idiot!

He stood by the door and stared
at her.
Everything we had is gone, all
because of your stupid interference.
In my heart / knew neither Bruce

She crumpled into chair, sobbing
gustily.

Yields to my footsteps

To the footsteps of time.
Venus slowly moves toward the

And gently fades
AS did the sun before her.
The sky is crystal clear
But suddenly the clouds cover the
beauty of the sky
And dim the brightness of the

AS lightning streaks the sky
I seek shelter;
Among the dunes of sand
And l wander in the miracles of

A moment just past
All was calm
But after calm
A storm is sure to come
And surely, after storm, comes
peace.
The dying echoes of thunder
Fade into the distance,
And the black clouds move
To reveal the moon once more,

DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENT

4 recent editorial IN the Brooklyn
Daily Eagle had some pertinent thoughts
concerning the workings of 4 democratic
government. The editorial elected praise
even from President Roosevelt.
Many aspects of our political life
seem to justify cynicism, the editorial
said. ''The campaign Just closed provided
plenty Of examples Of the crudities, super
fatalities and exaggerations that are typi-
cal Of such contests. But it would be =
mistake to take cynical view of politics
because all politicians are not statesmen
or to conclude that democratic government
Is failure because ignorance and pre-
indice play such an important part in cleo
tions.
What Is more important is the fact
that in time of worldwide political fer
ment and economic distress, the United
States goes its way. employing the usual
methods in settling vital questions of gov
eminent. without undue excitement Demo-
cratic government is functioning today, as
il has in the past. and outwardly there is
nothing to suggest the unusual
I'VE often forget that democracy is
merely an experiment It has been tried
By many countries at different times. The
tragedy Of our times is that liberalism and
democracy seem to be losing ground as one
nation after another has set up a dictator
ship. We have heard lot of talk about
fascism and communism, and our intelli-
gentsia speaks glibly of this government
swinging to the right or to the left. but
there IS no sign of anything of the kind to-
day. We are simply having another cleo
ton"

BIOLOGICAL WONDERS

Stunted children may be developed
TO normal size in future through scientific
means. according to a prediction by Dr.
Oscar Riddle, noted biologist, who recently
related over the radio some of the results
of experiments with animals and humans.
By the use of substances derived from
certain glands of animals, some surprising
developments have been produced.
Through special feeding mice have been
made to grow to twice their normal size
Salamanders, rats and dogs have been
greatly increased in size, and in some in
stances human dwarfs have shown marked
growth under treatment with '.hormones''
from thyroid or pituitary glands of oxen
and sheep.
Understood humans of the future may
not have to go through life as ''runts'' if. as
DR.. Riddle believes, the hormone treat
ment shall be successfully developed. Much
further experimenting will be necessary,
however. before such treatment becomes
available for general use.
Some other interesting laboratory ex-
periments and their results were emu
merated by DIR. Riddle. It was found that
BY shaking up certain eggs they would de-
velop without fertilization by a male
parent TadpOles developed eye lenses
from skin taken from their backs. Re-
frigeration of the skin of a white rabbit
caused it to turn black and grow black
heir. Sex of many animals can be con-
trolled and reversed
These are only few of the strange
things accomplished by scientists in recent
years. And there is no telling what they
may do next.
