A Little Thieving Probably every child in the course of his growing up thieves a little now and then. Pennies from his mother's purse, forbidden cookies from the jar on the pantry shelf or an especially charming toy from an unwary playmate. Nor is he, because of these small delinquencies, a po- tential criminal, says Alice Judson Peale, in a recent ar- ticle. On the contrary, he is a wholly normal child who, until he has been taught otherwise, sees no reason for not taking what he wants. A very little child may be taught to respect the proper- ty of others through having his own possessions treated with respect by the members of the household. As he grows older and his intelligence develops he will respond to simple, reasonable explanations. oe Perhaps the worst thing that can happen to a child whose parent has apprehended him in theft is to have a great deal made of the incident so that he is forced to regard himself as a moral leper. Such overpowering disapproval discourages and intimi- dates him. It males him feel guilty and inferior. It causes him to lose confidence in himself. If children are to grow to be the men and women we want them to become, they must never, no matter what they have done, be permitted to doubt our faith in their desire and ability to do right.

It is s0 worthless to others but so infinitely precious to the one who treasures them, stand for the dream that is done, the memory that is folded away in tissue paper ina secret, sacred corner of the heart. A war mother came home from France the other day. In her worn traveling bag she carried a crumpled flower that had bloomed on a grave in France; a few pebbles from the graveled walk that led to the poppy-shrouded grave; and a splinter of wood from a battered dugout. To her they were symbolic of the tryst that she had kept with a soldier who sleeps in Flanders. She intended to keep them always, to look at them sometimes in the twilight, to hold them and remember. But that dream is vanished now. Just the memory re- mains. Two thieves took the battered old bag from her porch in Kansas City as she was greeting friends and relatives. When she reached for it, it was gone. ‘The mementoes will mean nothing to the men who stole them. They will see a crushed flower, pebbles and a splinter of wood, But to the mother they were part of the shrire where she had gone to keep a tryst. ‘The thieves may toss them away carelessly, angry be- cause they didn’t steal something of value. Value is a strange word. To the Gold Star mother the trinkets are of greater worth than gold and myrrh and frankincense could ever be. Perhaps the thieves, one or the other of them, will no- tice the foreign label on the bag. Maybe he, too, will re- tall a memory, grown dusty in the dim recesses of his mind. And if he does, perhaps he will gather up the souvenirs and carry them back home to Mrs. Hadley. We hope so, Water—Five Cents a Glass Every now and then a story drifts across the pages of the press, telling of some far land where water is at a premium. We have a habit of shaking our heads sym- pathetically and immediately forgetting the calamity. After all, we think, no one could be without water. Not in our land anyway. Water is a God-given gift. Once in a while we hear a little different story coming of someone who became insane because his thirst was too much. We feel so uncomfortable when we try to visualize such a condition that we promptly put it out of our minds. But now the situation is coming home to us. In Brown and Jackson counties, according to a story we read the other day, in Indiana it has been a long time since the air has been cool and fragrant with beatiig-rain. Water aas been getting more and more scarce. And now armed nen were standing. guard over the few remaining wells shat give water and selling it for five cents a glass.

When we count our blessings after this, we could easily de a little more practival and put water on the list. When she well goes dry a cup of cold water is worth consider- ‘bly more than rubies and emeralds. This Is Not the Weather Not so long ago there was a slogan in vogue called “Back to the farm.” ‘Today the situation has been re- versed. Two hundred farmers at Wilmington, Ohio, rode into town the other day and asked the county commis- sioners to give them some work, so they could earn money vith which to support their families. Rain was only a dim, cool memory to them. Their cattle and sheep were thirsty, The sun had baked their pastures, dried up their crops. ‘ ‘The county commissioners immediately started work on some roade in order to answer the request of the men. |® result of the criticism directed against the Greek almost sure to rain within six months after thtey release their gases into the sky.

Two plays are named specifically in this connection, one a so-called revue and the other a production from the classic Greek Drama. The former of these shows was recently “raided” by the police and the producer and some of the performers were taken into court on charges of debasing public morals. The case against them has not been concluded, but the show has been somewhat purged of its objectionable features and is playing to even larger houses than before. It is noted further that as comedy the advance sale, which has averaged about $1,000 a day throughout the summer, has increased to $2,500. These figures indicate the difficulty of correcting the abuse of the stage by public denouncement. Only a small; Percentage of theater-goers are turned against the pro-} ductions by such measures. New York's theaters cater chiefly fo the out-of-town public, the people who flock there on business or for pleasure and who go to see the most notorious, the most libidinous and the most indecent | shows as part of the reasons of existence in the metropolis. Nevertheless the denunciation of such productions in the name of public decency is wholesome even though it may result in immediate profit to the promoters. It serves at ‘least to hold up the standard of taste and, toleration. A small minority of the people can support an unclean stage show, but it is well for the majority to be warned and acmonished against participation in this vicious partnership. Defeat for a Farm Board Critic (Mifneapois Journal) 5 Governor Clyde M. Reed of Kansas has vigorously op- posed the Farm Board’s wheat curtailment program. On Tuesday, the Republican voters of his state denied Gov- ernor Reed a renomination. Unfortunately, the primary outcome does not serve as a valid gage to measure senti- ment for and against curtailment in the country's larg- est wheat producing state. For acreage reduction was not the paramount issue in the primary campaign. - In- deed, it was no issue at all until Governor Reed made it one, apparently to sidetrack attention from other mat- ters on which his opponents were making it hot for him. Entirely local were the issues on which the governor met defeat. Use of the gubernatorial powers for his own political entrenchment seems to have been the lead- ing one. Accusations that state roads, state lakes, state game preserves and state jobs were being traded for support in a thoroughly Tammany manner evidently were not refuted to the satisfaction of the majority of Republican voters participating in the primary. And this robs of much of its significance the fact that Governor Reed, who usually has found fault with the Hoover administration, was defeated Tuesday, while his friend and appointee, Senator Henry J. Allen, who usually has supported the administration, Was victorious. What Kansas will do about wheat curtailment in the fall planting season, cannot be accurately foretold from the primary results. That the low prices being received for the 1930 crop will be more potent than any amount of farm bourd advice in inducing acreage reduction for 1931, is entirely likely.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXXVI MADAME DE TOROS walked in front of Judy toward the door. The girl noticed the little nervous, jerky movements of her small, dark head, that were due to the weight of her great, pearl-tipped diamond crown. At the door she stopped, and, passing Judy, went back to the dressing table, where she removed the ornament, taking out its fasten- ings—about a dozen platinum hair pins, “ “It's so heavy,” she said, while Judy waited. “I'd rather die than-wear a thing like that,” the girl replied, adding gene=ely: “But you look awfully smart in it.

Gideon awaited them alone. “Mr. Glyn couldn’t come—was prevented at the last minute,” he explained. “And Gossteivitsch has broken his wrist. His man. just telephoned. Awkward thing for him, isn’t it? But I expect he's well insured. I regret you two ladies will have to put up with me. It’s too late to get any one else.” “I’m famishing,” Judy replied. “I'll have some of that nice stodgy- looking pie.” \ The telephone bell rang through the flat. Gideon rose and went out. “You're wanted, Thirza,” he said to his sister, when he came back. He accompanied her out of the room, and came back alone. “It’s my sister’s husband ringing her up. He rang up at home, and they put him through here.” / eee I E gave her a cigaret, lit it,¢and, put 2 light to a spirit lamp on which was a Turkish coffeepot—an elaborate thing that Judy always admired, made of copper, with gold coins let in at the lip, and a band of turquoises all round the rim. He came and sat down next to her; she leaned her arms on the table. She was getting tired. She hoped Madame de Toros would not be long. visits ed.

I was mad with love for you. And she made scenes. It cost me a pretty penny—two hundred thousand dollars I had to pay that old scoundrel, her father. Otherwise she'd have sued me.” Judy shrugged her shoulders. “What a pot of money!” she said. “You shouldn’t‘have been engaged if you didn’t want to marry her.” “I don’t want to marry anybody, Judy. It was a fool idea. I think I wanted to make you jealous.” “Oh, Ia, la!” . The little careless exclamation, half amused, half contemptuous, had havc'y left her lips when, quite suddenly, she felt that something was wrong, She did not know what. It was just a feeling. : She looked at the man by her side. There was something about his eyes that she dida’t like. He was breathing heavily. One large, flashy hand was straying on the back of her chair. Judy knew the signs. her head. “The coffee is boiling over,” she said coolly. As he went across the room to lift the pot, dripping with the thick, brown, strong-smelling beverage, she ruse from her seat and walked |around the table. She did not think he was drunk, but she knew he had had enough to drink, The flat was very silent. She strained her ears to catch his sister's voice talking to her hus- band over the telephone. Gideon came toward Judy with a brimming cup. “I thought it had to boil.three times,” she said. “What does it matter?” he asked thickly, “I like my coffee properly made, thanks,” she laughed. “I won't have any. It keeps me awake, any how.” He came around the table to her side, She did not edge away, but stared at him. “Judy,” he said, “you know why I broke off with Luna Colt. I never cared a pin about her. I never wanted her. I only want you, Judy —you know that. You know what the world says about us?” cee gr lnughed on a high, hysterical note. si “Qh, as to that!” “As to that.” He repeated her meaning that sank into her brain very, very slowly, At the same time he put out his hand toward her. She eluded him and ran to the door. In the hall it was very still. She kept words with a Topazos, an island in the Red Sea. and 1950_4Y CHELSEA HOUSE. his sister’s voice, or any human voice. “What's the matter?” she cried, her voice shrill pitched, her skin turning to gooseflesh all over her bare arms. “Where is your sister? Where is she?” Gideon stood bulkily in the door- way of the little dining room. “She has gone home, Judy,” he said very softly. “She asked me to say good night to you.” Judy rushed to the front door. She rattled the handle and found it locked. x “The door is locked!” Judy said. “Unlock it!” Gideon did not speak. “Unlock it at once!” The smile om his face maddened her, but she knew that above all things she must keep her head. He was not drunk; for that he was the more dangerous. “Not just yet, Judy,” Gideon said. She crossed the hall and ran up- stairs into the bedroom where she and Madame de Toros had rem@red their wraps. She found Madame de Toros’ cloak gone. Her diamond crown with the big pearl tips, which she had taken off and laid on the dress- ing table, was gone, too. Judy ran downstairs again.

Some motherly person picks up the victim’s head and holds it high so that the small amount of blood, which may be remaining in the brain, will drain out, producing an even greater loss of consciousness. Most people have been told often enough what to do when a person faints, and yet the usual procedure of crowding around and supporting the head are exactly the wrong things to do.

Our con- sciousness stops if the blood supply is shut off, or if the blood becomes too toxic in nature.

Why had no one ever told her about God? She felt a dull anger against the world. She remembered that Dan prayed. Words came to her that she had ften heard him repeat. They jangled in her brain. Gideon's hoarse voice, was close to her ear. Everything was a blur, but through the gathering darkness she saw his eyes, bloodshot, covetous—the eyes of a man who will wait no longer. Quite suddenly and simply, with- out meaning to, she raised her hand and made the sign of the cross, She had never done such a thing before. It was almost like a miracle. Gideon started back as if gome one had struck him a blow. He seemed to reel. In that moment Judy got her chance. Her brain cleared. The mists were dissipated. In a flash she remembered that the hall win- dow just near her opened upon the garden, and outside was @ tiny platform from which an fron fire escape led down to the ground. Like a cat, she sprang sidewise to the window and flung it open. Before Gideon had recovered him- self she had swung herself over the ledge and was clambering down the fron stairway to liberty. Her training had stood her in good stead. She was down on the ground before the men could draw his breath. As her feet touched the earth, she heard his ugly shout of baffled rage. The shining night was above and around her. She trembled from head to foot and began to whimper, like a lost child, She had neither cloak nor money, and she stood with bare arms and neck in her bright dress on the grass.
