A woman writes me long let
ter which is a study in human re-
lationS.
1t is a case of another woman,
and my reader is naturally all
upset about it The other woman
is not pretty. She is not witty. She
is a silly, simpering mink, my
reader says.
No doubt she is right, and the
question is-what can her huS-
band see or find in such a hucSy?
1t is not very high tribute to her
husband, if that is all there is to
it.
If a mere man may speak plain
ly, it can be put in this way. In
seven cases out of ten, if a Wo-
man loses the love of her u.band
it is her own fault, and is not very
hard to find,
The same is true the other way
round, if a husband loses the
love of his wife. In seven cases out
of ten, at least, he is to blame.
There are exceptions of course, as
we all know.
There are cases of moral degen-

With fragrant violets growing near,
And sweet forget-me-nots;

strike was averted, but the mere willingness
of the movie stars to take part in one showed how
desperate they have been for actors and excite
ment ever since "talkies" came in.
A dozen famous screen queens were all ready to
strike the day before the settlement but it had
to be called off There was no chaise-lounge.
And the lighting wasn't satisfactory
The actirs claim that so per cent of the per-
formers in pictures are extras and part-timers who
get less than $4,000 year. And for this they have
to do everything from repulsing the charge of the
Light Brigade to fighting the Battle of Jutland
over again.
Two thousand dollars year! The public thought
even the White Russian wolfhoundS got more
One of the demands is that actors employed by
the day get paid for overtime. Under present con-
dtions, they said, if a man is hired to participate
in Clusters Last Fight he often has to scalp well
into the night for daylight rates.
If the boys who write some of those animated
cartoon scripts would walk out everybody would be
prOviSad tbev WALKING
And it would be just great if the directors who
insist on all those automobile pursuit scenes with
the screeching brake effect would quit.
At late hour today Mickey Mouse was reported
ready to strike because of fear that if he didn't
they would call him a rat.
Donald Ducks attitude is not known. Popeye
the Sailorman has offered to meet the movie czars
and win all the demands Single-handed. If the
