SIDE TALKS BY RUTH CAMERON Cheerful Criticisms If anyone told vou he had bought some article (and you knew he couldn’t change it) would you at once hasten to inform him of some one about it? Of course you wouldn't. And vet T'll wageg that vou know lots of people who never miss such a chance. Why do they do it? Let me tell you the experience of a friend of mine. She has been fur- nishing a summer cottage. She is new to the business of homemaking. The house has cost her rather more than she planned (was there ever a house which didn’t?) and so she can- not readily afford to correct any niis- takes she may make. Everyone knows this and yet this is her experi- ence. Yet Most People Like Aluminum. She was showing me the cottage. “My dear,” she said, “if you know of any glaring mistakes T've made please don’t tell me about them. I'll know it soon enough and it seems as if people did nothing else bt tell me I'd bought the wrong thing. “Now there’s my aluminum,” she held up a shining new kettle. “I was so proud of it and the minute Mrs. G. saw it she said, “Oh, I wouldn’t have aluminum in my Kkitchen. It is so hard to keep clean. And then it gets so hot that you're always burning your fingers on it.” (And yet there are innumerable nice things one can say of alumi- num). “And there’s my sink,” she pointed to a white enamel sink. “I thought 1 was getting the best there was, and Mrs. M. said they were a nui- sance because every speck of dirt showed and your dish pan was so apt to scratch it. She Had One Omnce and It Was No Good. “And when Mrs. R. saw my stove, she said, ‘Oh dear, what did vou get that kind for? I had one once and it was no good at all. I wish you'd gotten one like mine.' I suppose she meant to bhe kind but she knew I had this one and there wasn’'t any use in discouraging me. And the funny part of it is that it's oil really much better than hers, didn’t know that then.” She sighed. “Now what think I've made a terrible n but I do vou mistake T Wonder If I Should Have, Thus challenged, I (naturally) did not point out any mistakes. I hope I should have had the tact not to anyway. Had it been one woman who made all three of those cheerful criticisms one might have said it was her un- fortunate manner. But it was three women. And three otherwise nice women, too. I suspect this variety is like most breaches of tact, mere thoughtless- ness. TLet's try and think. T, Coanema BIG BILL FARNUM RETURNING TO FOX'S One of the best shows yet will he seen at Fox's for the three days start- ing next Sunday. First and foremost in the interest of local Fox-followers will be the grand triumphal return of William Farnum, the most beloved and red-blooded film hero in the busi- ness, who will make his bows in his first big seven-part Fox standard pro- duction, “The Conqueror.” Accord- ing to the testimony of those who have seen both pictures, Bill Far- num's “Conqueror” is even better than his brother Dustin’s recent success, “The Spy” and when that is said, it means a picture well worth seeing. The picture has to do with the ac- tivities of General Sam Houston and, although it may not all be strictly according to historical evidence, veot In those points where it differs, it is an improvement on history. Sam Houston could have done a lot of things in his life, if he only thought of them. but it remained for Farnum ! | Menu for Tomorrow Breakfa Melons Poached Eggs put into the story of the scrappy ard battle-scarred general the things he should have done, but didn’'t.
