none. He went on:
II treated her badly. While
wouldn't admit that, l treated you
badly too, because you were her son.
She died. couldn't bear for her son
to die, last bit of her in the world"
He paused. Then he said quietly:

Cali right. don't want to know"
But Keith could tell that his father
was relieved!
cts odd, Father that you decided
to talk about this. 1 was just at the
point of having enough energy to
want to communicate with her. She
must be having very difficult time"
"No," said that old man. "Only
soft women have a very difficult
time"
"Felicia's not quite as hard as she
pretended" Keith said.
"That's good. You should defend
her. Not many people will" There
were memories in his voice now that
Keith could only guess about. Did
he wish that little Mary Sheldie had
found more defenders in her last
hours?

"Will you send a telegram to her
from me, Father? I'll have to die
tate it, until they take this cast off,"
"No, mean I'll send it if you want,
but 1 wish you'd stop and think first"
His manner of saying that was so
quiet, so undemanding, that Keith
could not be exasperated.
"What is there to think about, tho
Father? 1 can't be blamed for not
letting her know I was standing by,
in these weeks when I've been in a

ten to me now. But wish you
would"
"Of course l will" He was just
little impatient about it, though.
What was the use of long discussion? !?
His father said: II want you to stop
and think of the person in this sit
uation about whom no one ever thinks,
except with a sort of amusement and
with curiosity. I want you to think
of her husband"
"Not much use now, is it?"
Perhaps. Perhaps not. Because
I was once the husband in a case
like this, his position seems impor-
tant to me. He has so small chance.
I've been finding out, as much as
could discreetly, Keith, about what's
happening to her and her husband.
His people are causing as much
trouble as possible, but Eustace Dayne
is saying nothing, calling on his wife
three times day, behaving to his
friends as if his marriage were just
as permanent as before-as before
what happened. He seems to be in
love with her, Keith"
"I don't doubt it. She's not, tho,
with him."
His father hurried his words.
"Please don't think Pm blaming her,
or you. Unaccountable things hap
pen to people. Only one has to be
told to admit that truly"
"You may as we'll know, Father,
she's not madly in love with me, eth

evening when he felt comfortable,
clear-headed, and conscience-stricken
about not having communicated with
Felicia.
That was day or two after they'd
shown him a mirror when they shaw
ed him-and because he was mascu-

than with Felicia. 'Fraid you've
kind of spoiled your handsome face,

better looking than some."
On that evening when first he felt
physically comfortable, and assured
that he would in time be more or
less able to go on with things, his
father had his dinner brought to him,
on a tray beside Keith's bed. That
had become his daily custom.
His old face now had triumphant
look, as if his sons recovery were
largely due to his insistence, his i'm

dubious phys lciansI Why, the boy
would be we'll as ever shortly, and
much more of man, for losing some
of his mothers beauty.
He said: you're feeling like your
self, Keith. We can talk"
His son nodded, just resisted say
ing, "Only, we've never been able to
talk" and waited.
"Nice amount of publicity you got
yourself, and Felicia"
Keith spoke aloud then: "You are
unexpectedly amiable about it"
"Too bad you didn't have a critical
illness in your childhood"

Simple enough. Never knew I was
fond of you until I thought I might
lose you. Could have known, years
sooner, if you'd had scarlet fever or
something of that sort"
Better late than never. I suppose"
Don't joke, Keith, I'm serious"
His fathers old gaze was fixed on
the curtained windows. Something
I should tell you, Keith. I would
never have-have lost your mother,
if I'd been willing to say I wasn't
always right"
Perhaps that was true, Keith
thought. Perhaps pretty Mary Shell

even have enjoyed it's wealth, and the
power implicit behind it, if his faith

in the weariest voice his son had ever

lips, "some one or other told you that
old story, about your mother and me-"
Keith nodded.

from his customary seclusion to visit
the White House and discuss the
Jewish problem with President

Justice Brandeis was the first

the court. The second was Justice
Benjamin N. Cardozo, who died last

Has Reputation as Dissenter.
Appointed an associate justice in
1915 by President Wilson, Justice
Brandeis quickly gained a reputa-
tion as a dissenter.
He long had been known as a
friend Of the workingman as against
big business" He had favored So
cial legislation.
| His views did not agree with those
OF a majority of his colleagues and
he frequently was on the losing
side with Justice Oliver Wendell
Holmes. The phrase, Holmes and
Brandeis dissenting" became IA
nous.
One of his best-known dissents,
delivered in 1882, has been hailed
by many as a forecast of the New
Deal.
The majority had decreed that
Oklahoma could not regulate the

Brandeis asserted:

Many Hide from Arrest.
Not daring to 60 home lest they

they could, hoping that the raids

chance to resume their family life
Part Of their time was spent at
foreign embassies and consulates,
including that Of the United States,
where they and the wives of ar
rested Jews pleaded for exceptional
treatment of their visa applications
Consular ohicials, however, found
themselves unable to set visa regu-
lations aside.
Nor could they give much hope
for the future because it was gen.
orally expected long before the new

soon would become paupers, hence

The oldest member of the Supreme
Court plans to slip quietly into an
other year of his liberal" career
without any celebration.
Justice Brandeis, apparently in ex-
cellent health, has given no indica-
ton that he plans to retire in the
near future. He still follows an as
cetic routine of rising each day at
am. and doing what many would
consider full days work before his
o'clock breakfast.
Jealous for facts, he still is prob
ably the leading question-asker of
the high court. A familiar scene in
the marble-colu courtroom is

from his seat to the left of Chief
Justice Hughes to discuss with an
attorney a point of law which in

Chooses Words Carefully.
Whenever he breaks into a law
yers argument, courtroom visitors
nudge one another and whisper:
That's Justice Brandeis."
He talks slowly, carefully choosing
words to reflect exactly the shade
of meaning he desires to express.
AS he voices his views, he is the
center of attention. The visitors

hair rising over a studious brow in
profusion of unruly f1uffs. On his

Numerous reports indicate that the U. s. Engineers are contem- plating construction of two all concrete jetties at the mouth of Snake River, to replace the old wooden ones, almost completely d d:stroyed by the terrific storm of last November, which did such extensive damage along the wat CT front of Nome.
 It was further said that the West jetty would be constructed closer to the present location of the East jetty so as to form a channel about 135 feet across. This would cut in two, the pres ent width of approximately 27O feet, and do much toward keeping a deeper channel opened at the mouth of the harbor.
 It was understood a special en- gineer who has been in charge of concrete work on the site of the Bonneville Dam near Portland, Oregon. would be in charge of the work here this spring, when the materials are received on the first boats.
