is her leading man, and thrilled
her half to death recently when
he came on the set with a huge
box for her. It was a present,
said he.
The box contained set-chair-
you know, one of those special
chairs with a canvas back-rest that
stars always have, with their names
painted across the back. Susanna
took one look at it and burst into
tears. Her name had been spelled
wrong! Not until a sign-painter had
fixed it did she really feel like

When I was last in China an amah
who had been the nurse of my sis
ter's children came to the hotel to
make herself useful to us. She took
entire charge of our rooms and slept
on rug in the bathroom; we could
not persuade her to anything more
comfortable. During the course of
this stay happened to give her a
length of heavy dark green felt that
had used as typewriter cover.
The next day the amah appeared
with neat squares of it sewed to
her clothes, on elbows and knees.
The autumn weather was insuffera-
bly, hot, and it seemed a strange
time for her to make any warmer
the suffocating bundle of patched,
cleaned, mended old garments that
she wore.
What else could she do?" my
sister said. "Amah has no bedroom
closet, no bureau, no place to store
things. She lives in a dusty open
compound with rabble of children
and grandchildren, cousins and rela-
tives swarming about her, to say
nothing of a goat, dog, few chick
ems, wash buckets, cooking furnace,
fodder pile, chopping block, all the
accumulated possessions of centu-
ries of Chinese life. The cold wealth
er is coming, and Amah put the
warm cloth just where it would do
the most good"
Find Joy in Simple Things.
Well, there is something to be
said for the reality of that sort of
living. It never grows monotonous
and it never grows dull. Just the
race to keep food inside you and
famine at arms-length is a thrilling
business. A feast, two or three
times a year, is real feast; the
whole family anticipates with joy
the moment when the roasted pig or
goose, the rice and hot tea, the
sauces and pastes shall be ready,
and remembers the occasion for
months. A new garment, a few ex-
ira pennies, and unexpected bit of
good luck give these peoples joys
that we never know. Most of them
live, and they have developed a
strangely stoical philosophy about
those who die. Being always face to
face with death seems to rob it of
most of its terrors.
But it is a pity that we take so
quietly for granted the advantages
of our own position. If we appreciat-
ed them there is not a woman In
America who would not feel herself
fortunate, would not take a changed
attitude toward life and toward her
own problem, and would not want
to put herself from now on in a DO
sition Of giving rather than of TAX
ing.
Taking love for granted is one of
the dangers of this serene belief of
ours that we are entitled to every-
thing good in this life, and that it
is the duty of everyone around us
to see that we get it.
Love is wonderful, perishable,
changeable thing. Nine divorces
out of ten are caused by husbands
and wives who regard it as a set
tied, accepted fact; a thing that
needs no further consideration or
culture. Too many wives forget that
marriage is not merely a stepping
stone to individual advancement or
pleasure, and that to have love in
your Life is to be counted among the
privileged of mankind.

AS result of winning two
matches yesterday, Miss Moore and

of doubles. Their opponents were
to be decided late today in the semi

Both Mrs. Mahony and Miss

Mrs. Rowan matched the favorite
game for game until the score
reached 4-all in the first set when
Margo won On her service and broke
her opponents tor Ga decision.
The second set was 6-3
Mrs. Miller extended Miss Decker
even more, the third ranking en-

Former Champions Clash.
OF today's two semifinal singles
encounters, the Mahony-Moore setto
was regarded as the more interes ST
ing. Both young women take their
tennis extremely seriously and
neither likes to lose-two states of
mind which augur for a fight to the
| finish. Both have been local cham
pions at one time or another, al
though Mrs. Mahony has held the
City and District titles since Miss
Moore owned each. Most observers
think that if Sara can keep Margo
away from the net she stands good
chance of winning.
