WOMAN'S PAGE. The Sidewalks BY THORNT! We have just met a man nearly "'fl] years old who is visiting Washington for the first time in his life. This| would not be unusual if the gentleman | hailed from California, Wisconsin or Maine. There would be no news value in that. It is of extraordinary interest to know that he was born, nurtured. married and has lived less than 60 miles from the Nati add to the recader may be said that our visitor had not seen a moving picture until the other night, or attended a theatrical produc- tion.

These are the sins that destroy the vines of character. Little foxes soon grow to be big foxes. Little foxes of temper soon be- come grown-up jackals. Little foxes of innuendo very rapidly grow into big foxes of slander and bitter vituperation. | The little “white lie” becomes the pro- | genitor of the big black lie.
