To the extent that the children are permitted to go without proper food and clothing and the morale of their elders is broken down will cur- rent conditions work ill to the nation in the future. The loss of goods is not half so important as damage to the bodies and minds of the coming generation and loss of spirit by their elcers. Truly these are days when every man id woman must have a fighting heart if they and theirs are to escape without permanent scars. Difficulties are most apparent on the farm where loss of revenue has not been matched by corresponding decreases in things the farmer must buy. What we once proudly called the “American Standard of Living” has practically vanished. The stan- dard today is one of near-starvation. ‘We may as well look the fact in the face. To be sure, there are signs of recovery, but they are not widespread. We have not yet made the basic re- adjustments which are necessary if the social and economic systems of the nation are to take advantage of a better day which is-vand always has been—possible to us. Those ad- justments must be made by the peo- ple themselves, or at least by their direction. We cannot expect to pull ourselves out by the same processes which put us where we are now. General realization of this fact is one of the most significant trends of the times, for people everywhere are thinking and mental processes are stimulated by a thinness in the re- gion of the ribs. Fat bellies very often make for fat minds. | But hope springs eternal and mil-| lions of farmers today are building their pictures for the future.

Never- theless, we may be sure of one thing. When the announcement is made the world will be gravely assured that the marriage is very much one of love rather than convenience. Even Toyalty has to make some conces- sions to the modern demand for ro- mance., Considering the limited range of opportunity which princesses and princes have in the matter of select- ing mates, one wonders if they do! not sometimes feel cheated. t The Prince of Wales is still un-j| wed, but the fact that he has escaped the matchmakers so often leads us to place our bet on him to come Ingrid, if she mar- ries into the British monarchial fam- ily, probably will draw young George rather than brother David. i An Old Philosophy Thorstein Hyland, a candidate for; county judge in Mercer county, has} sent to The Tribune copies of corre- spondenc: with Mrs, Mary S. Candee, ; Dickinson, corresponding secretary of the W. C. T. U., and his letter, which abandons prohibition for po- litical philosophy, contains some sound sense. Mrs. Candec’s question was wheth- er the candidate favors repeal of the prohibition clause in the state con- stitution and of the 18th amendment to the federal constitution. After pointing out that the ques- tion might properly be disregarded by @ judicial candidate, because judges are supposed to interpret the law as they find it, whether good or bad, Hyland answered both questions in the affirmative, explaining that he strongly favors state's rights and local government. And having done so he goes on to say: “I fully agree, that laws should not be repealed at the request of Jaw violators, and, in a country and state like ours, that will never be. We live in « land where the just and the unjust, the righteous and the unrighteous, the good and the bad all have a veice in the government. Far be it from me to attempt to separate the goats from the sheep and we will never have any better gov- ernment in the nation than the People in it. If the unjust and the unrighteous have more votes than the just and righteous and such condition continues to exist in our state and nation, the fu- ture generations will read the history of a great state and na- tion that followed in the steps of Sodom and Gomorrha.” | It is an old story and one with which both prohibitionists and anti- prohibitionists will agree. Our form | of government was founded on the theory that a just and enlightened) People could solve its own problems. | The faith of the founders was placed in themselves and upon those to come after them, now numbering some 125,000,000 persons. If either the intelligence or the} honesty of the people fails, the result | is inevitable disaster, for after all the responsibility for government rests/ with the people themselves.

All these ideas are, of course, sold to @roducers, and lighting ef- fects now are just about as important as stars, soft music and play content. Each play, each star and each situation creates a new problem for M. Levy to worry about. In her tour last year, Maude Adams took along the largest bulb ever used in the theaters. Many houses in which she played could not use it because of small town “juice” limitation. Various music show producers have pet effects, all numbered and order- ed as No. 5, 6, 7 and so forth. Earl Carroll has merely to call up and ask for his very favorite “No. 8” and on will come a sort of heliotrope-lav- ender-pink. in * * * { COSTS REAL MONEY j The cost of all this is not so simple a factor in play production. A par- ticularly tricky series of stage light- ings will run up to $15,000—partic- ularly in getting “girl show” effects. Others run as low as $1,000 for an ordinary lighting set-up. Last year a show came to Broad- way in which a meticulous producer wished to put on his performers without rouge or other make-up. The lighting problem required that the actors seem to be even as in life. Trick footlights are among the more immediate novelties. These are 50 arranged as to reflect certain lights on every possible portion of the stage and to provide “light angles” and shadows when required. Norman Bel Geddes is looked up- on as one of the most particular “light effect” producers and weeks; are spent getting a single circle to! appear with telling effect.

It is because so many of these po- litical accidents who occupy soft berths in our so-called health de- partments cherish and teach that quackish notion that I have to harp on the germs and the important and often overlooked fact that the dis- eases vulgarly called “colds” are CATCHING.

Fanchon is shocked to learn that Tony is a racketeer, implicated in a fecent murder. She, too, is now wanted. Fanchon escapes in an air- lane under the name of “Smith.” Xvelyn Howard, whom she had met on the boat coming from Hawaii, is aboard. Evelyn is enroute to New York to live with her aunt, the wealthy Mrs. Carstairs, whom she has never met. After Fanchon con- fides in Evelyn, the latter treats her coolly. The plane crashes and Fanchon is the only survivor, She decides to escape Tony and the past and start life anew by masquerad- ing as Evelyn. She requests a doc- tor to wire Mrs. Carstairs that “Evelyn” is safe. A wire comes from Mrs. Carstairs saying that Col- lin cannot meet Fanchon. Fanchon learns Collin is Mrs. Carstairs only son. Mrs. Carstairs meets Fanchon commonly occur in the nose and throat or even rarely occur there when the host is not suffering with or coming down with the specific disease. The only exception to this is the case of the germ carrier, say a diphtheria carrier, who harbors diphtheria germs in nose or throat, but is himself neither ill of nor sus- ceptible to diphtheria, since he has had the disease and acquired suf- ficient immunity to recover. But his germs are a menace to susceptible persons around him. Even if this health commissioner's unscientific and untenable argument vident tomorrow.

The business field is being sum- mer-fallowed now for the produc- tion of a bumper crop later on. Poor Little Princess Europe's royal chatterboxes are busily speculating upon the marital Possibilities of Princess Ingrid of Sweden, now 22 years old and dis- tinetly eligible for a trip to the altar. Monarchies have fared none too well in recent years but that of Sweden appears’ to have been more than ordinarily intelligent and its stability 1s not threatened. This, Father than the young lady's per- in which he asked his Massachusetts Until Mr. Smith at Newark made it perfectly clear that he understood and rejected the pretended solicitude of the Republicans for him this year, some of his friends feared that he might be beguiled by the daily flat- tery, the Republican public grief over the outcome of the Chicago conven- tion as it related to the former gov- ernor of New York. Joseph P. Tumulty in fact issued a warning to Mr. Smith not to be moved by the campaign tears which the Republi- cans shed upon him. But this was not necessary. Mr. Smith was at no time beguiled. He awaited his time to smite those “who want Al Smith to get votes only when they know he hasn't a chance to be elected.” Not without justice did he select Senators Borah and Moses as lead- ers of the personal phase of the cam- paign against him in 1928. Not again during the period be- tween now and election day will Mr. Smith hear Republican compliments, or laments that his party “turned sonal pulchritude, will have most to do with her chances in the court of @upia. An intriguing part of the specula- tion is the fact that the names of both the Prince of Wales and his younger brother, Prince George, are being mentioned as suitors for the Jady’s hand. No one knows just which the altar and this lends zest to the affair. ‘The fact, of course, is that either him down.” What he said at Bos- ton and Newark struck at one of their important supply bases.

You can't be.” The girl's terror of being discovered passes when Mrs. Carstairs explains she couldn’t believe anyone so beautiful could belong in the family. Her kindness and affection prick Fanchon’s conscience. Mrs. Car- stairs gives Fanchon a liberal Jowance and lavishes affection. j CHAPTER XII Mrs. Carstairs moved to the bed- side table and took up the thermos jug which stood there, poured out a glass of wgter, shook one of the sleeping powders into it and gave it into Fanchon’s hand. “Drink that. Doctor's orders!” she said smiling, “and if, in two hours you are not sleeping you may have another. If you wish anything in the night, ring for Emma. She is sleeping next door to be near you. But I, and not she, will tuck you in now.” She drew a_sheet and a light blanket ove: Fanchon, and took the negligee from her shoulders. “Lie down,” she said, and stooping, kissed her. Fanchon held her tightly for a minute. In another moment the lights were out and the cool breeze swept gently into the room and stirred the curtains. “I_ only want your happiness,” said Mrs. Carstairs, oddly from the door. “I have made it my busi- ness, Evelyn.” Two hours later Fanchon snapped on the bedside light and took the second sleeping powder. Her brain was like a merry-go-round. She lay and tossed in a sort of fever of de- 4 spair. No going back now. And she didn't want to go back. Her whole heart had gone out to Jennie Carstairs. If she had been poor and obscure and miserable and still her- self, Fanchon’s heart would have fone out to her. Fanchon was per- fectly unimpressed by all the ease and luxury. It fitted into the pic- ture and that was all. It was the woman herself who had won her, And she was an imposter. But Evelyn was dead. She could not hurt ghe dead. To confess now would be, she realized dully, to hurt the living tremendously. After a long time, she slept. Emma brought her her tray after she woke. ~It seemed to Fanchon that the maid must have been listen- ing at the door half the morning for it was almost noon before she came in on the very heels of Fanchon’s amazed awakening. She had been lying there, very rested, wondering, remembering, hoping and fearing, when Emma’s knock came. Emma smiled, widely, her homely pleasant face very friendly, es ‘Did you sleep well, Miss Eve- lyn,” she asked. by FAITH BALDWIN BALDWIN’ m= DISTRIBUTED BY Kfit6 “Thank you, Emma, I did, in- deed,” said Fanchon. “It’s a lovely day and quite cool,” Emma told her. “I'll run the water for your tub and by the time you are ready for it your tray will be here.” “Mrs, Carstairs?” Fanchon asked, getting out of bed. “She has been up a long time. She will come in with you while you are breakfasting,” Emma told her. “Goodness . . . what time is it?” asked Fanchon. “Almost twelve, Miss Evelyn.” “My watch,” Fanchon said, idly, “stopped when I had the accident. “I see” said Entma and added, “It was—terrible. I never saw Mrs. Carstairs so upset.” Some time later as Fanchon at- tacked her ice cold melon and her hot, crisp toast, eggs and coffee, Jennie Carstairs came in. She wore cool suit of black pique with a frilly white blouse and looked en- tirely lovely. Coming over to kiss Fanchon, “Did you have a good nigh; she wanted to know... “You did? That's splendid! Now, if you want to get up and spend the day out on the terrace, Doctor Wynne thinks it will be all right. Tomorrow I will have some people come in and fit you to a few essentials and then we will see if the next day we can't motor down to Southampton.” “My trunk—" began Fanchon, recalling her role. “You sent it to Southampton, didn’t you? And besides you wili need quite different things ... you wrote me you had mostly utility things for the school,” Mrs. Car- Stairs told her. Fanchon was silent. The rest of the day she lazed, out in a big chair on the terrace. Mrs, Carstairs was with her most of the time. When she was not, there were books and magazines to read and the wide expanse of city towers, trees, sky and blue water to watch and wonder at. When her “aunt” was with her they talked, as people do who understand one another yet who have not met for years. Mrs, Car- stairs asked ber about Hawaii and Fanchon, sighing with relief, was able to tell her much about the: Is- | k lands. As much as she dared, fear. ing to tell too much, for, after all, she had spent twenty years there to Evelyn’s two! In return Jennie Carstairs spoke of her place in England. “I didn't sell it,” she confessed, “it has been let to American friends. We'll go there some day. And to France too.” In France, it seemed she maintained a Paris apartment and a small chateau out of town. “But I want you to have a summer here and a New York season first,” she explained. Twice or three times she spoke of Collin, Always with that flush and FEATURES SYNDICATE, INC. E.

The trip down, in the big closed car was made with ease and comfort. | 9 The Southampton house was long and lowand rambling, painted white + with green shutters. It stood very near the dunes, but there was much ground about it, gardens andatennis courts.

Despite her position and her sense of dreamlike uncertainty Fanchon would not have been a normal hu- man girl had she not been as ex- ay cited as a child. Anda child with an income of her own because Mrs. Carstairs had insisted upon her at- tending to the bank signature before | she left and drawing out some moncy “for peanuts,” Mrs. Car- stairs had told her, laughing. The night of her arrrival Jennie save her a long jeweler’s box, “You're to have pearls,” she said smiling, “when ‘you come out. My own must go to Collin's wife, of course.” Was Collin married—or ? thought Fanchon. soaenyd “When he marries,” Mrs, Carstairs went on, “but you shall have a small string of your own, Open the box, Evelyn.” _ She did so. There was a watch in it, a small platinum watch, sexerely simple, on a twisted cord set with diamonds, “Emma told me that you—broke your own.” Mrs. Carstairs explained. Fanchon slipped the pretty thing on her wrist. She said, her eyes filling. . . “You shouldn't—it is too much,” “Oh, but I should! Nothing,” said Jennic deeply, “is too much or enough.” She added, 1ow—why,’ They had been at “Dunerose” for almost a week before Mrs, Carstairs spoke of her son again. They had been living quietly, seeing no one and going nowhere until Fanchon should be entirely built u and the wounded arm healed.
