In Dew policies especially where economy was involved, it has been found that there wers thoss who balked, endeav- ored to Imterpose their objections to such an extemt that they were influenc- ing congressional action against them. This has characterized a number of the bureaus in Which refoerms have been carrfed out. In the veterans’ bureau the resigna- tlon of Dr. Haven Emerson has been called for and obtalned but in leaving the bureau he makes charges to the effect that medical men are being re- placed by plumbers and policemen and that the bureau is being run as a poiiti- cal organization. Charges of that kind are always bound to stand out much more promi- nently’ than the conditions under which they are made. Director Forbes de- clares that they are only what he ex- pected from the man and indicates that he is indulging In recrimination, that Instead of taking the repudiation of his attitude while in the bureau and swallowing it he desires to stir up trou ble and aiesatisfaction. If he ls simply carrying on obstructive tactics on leav- ing the office such as might have been the cause for his ‘“resignation” they must be weighed only for what they are worth. If, however, facts and does not grossly exagperate, and there must be those who ares In a position to pass judgment thereon, what- ever serves to handicap ths inefficiency of the burean should be eliminated. TREATING THE INSANE. The idea which is to be put inte ef- fect and for which the legislature has made proviston, whereby certain pa- tientg in the state hospitals for the in- sane will be permitted te return te their families wpon recommendation of the superintendents will be watched with particular interest throughout the state. It is to be realized that thers are now patients who ara permitted to go away from the hospitals for the day and others who ara allowed to return home for longer perlods when it is es- tablished that there 1s no longer in- volved in such action and where there ars reasons to belleve that thers will be beneficial results. It isn't understood that thers is any intention of taking chances with* a dangerous class of patients, efther In connectlon with the Interests of them- seives or the publle, but that some who have been mentally disturbed and are Improved and likely to make better progresy under home influenees than In an Institution are to be given the beme- fit of such surroundings with the addi- tional protection of providing an ex- pert who will make frequent visits to such patients to watch their cordition and the progress made. The Idea marks a departure from past practlcs in that no such visiting expert has been avaflable. The Insti- tutions have kept in touch with the pa- tients through visits to the hospitals o= by reports made concerning them. The new plan while seeming to Indicate a rellef to the facilities for caring for patients at the hospitals doesn't run counter to the hitherto declared policy of providing institutional treatment for the mentally disturbed as quickly as possible in order to arrest the diseasa when It is most susceptible to treat- ment but a development of the idea to the extent of adding the bdenefits of care and treatment at home when conditions are favorable. The alm seems to be to serve the best- interests of the patients and it is to be sincerely hoped that such will prove to be the case. EXPERIENCES ARE SIMILAR. Many are the commmunities that have gotten the jmpression that they could get along without the trolleys just as well as not and that the jitneys would give them aderuate service. Almost as many have proceeded to give them a trial. TFigures are not avaflable to show just how many have done so or what the result has been In each hut there are plenty of Instances showing the disappointment that has been experienced and ‘the haste has been made to insure the permanent Te- tarn of the trolley serv Out in the city of Indianapolls this matter has been undergoing a test The jitneys are still doing busin but there s an Insistent demand for the regulation of the Jitneys fn aceord with the practice which it has shown has been followed in other eitfes, a mum- ber of which were Investigated by a spec!al committee named for that pur- That clity s ecrylng becanse In the heart of the business district traf- fic congestion is dafly becoming worse and that sitnatlon !s complicated by the presence of the jltneys.

As the engagement took place off the British coast of Novia Scotia New England was the first to receive the glad tidings of the outcome. When Captain Isaac Hull, the victorl- ous commander of the Constitution sailed into Boston harbor after the victory he was given a reception the like of which had not yet been accerded to any man. Every ship was gay with bunting. The whole population stood on the wharves and crowded the windows and house- tops overlooking the Fay, and as Huil stepped ashore he was greeted with a salute fro mthe artillery and with deaf- ening cheers, and the crowd escorted him through the bunting-decked streets to to Coffee House, where he was recelved in true republican syle. As the handbills spread the news southward the pleasure of the people was expressed in innumerable ways. At New- York money was raised to buy swordh to be presented to Hull and his officers. At Philadelphia subscriptions were asked for a fund to purchase two fine pleces of plate for Hull and Lieut Morris. When the news reached Balti- more salutes were fired and every ship in the harbor ran u its flag. That same day, September 7, the frigate Eessex en- tered the Delaware and took part in the demonstrations of joy going on in every town along the river band. The saucy Dacres, commander of the Guerriere, was no doubt, very much chagrined at the loss, not only of hi vessel, which was sent to the bottom. but also his prestize as a naval officer. But he had invited In 2 most audacions way, his humiliation. While cruising off the northern coast of our country he hailed a merchant- man and sent a challenge into New York offering to meet any frigate in the Am- erican navy off Sandy Hook. This chal- lenge did mot reach New York until some days after the battle was fought, and read as follows: “Capt. Darcres, commander of the Britannic Majesty’s frizate Guerriere of forty-four guns, presents his compli- ments to Commodore Rogers of the United States frigate President, and will be wery glad to met Rim or any other American frigate of equal force, off Sandy Hook, for the purpose.of having a few minutes’ tete-a-tete” He had his wishes gratified even before they reached the point t which they were being conveyed, but the haughty Brit- isher had not the remotest idea the ter- mination would be so discomfiting to him. (Tomorrow—Brides of the White Hoyse) Stories That Recall Others Preferred to Pay the Fine. Saturday morning a boy told the M- brarian that he had a book at home that should be returned to the Ifbrary that day. . ‘“But how mmuch would the fine be if I kept the lfbrary book until Monday?’ he asked her. “It would be two cents a day, Jimmy, but you don't wish to pay a fine.

The indications of the well rounded, easily flowing handwriting indicate still another type of character. Do any of your correspondents write such a hand? If they do, youll find at patience, calmness -and amiability are their normal characteristics. You can rest assured that it will take a real storm of emotion you hastily or harshly. Conversely, you find them doing either of things to ou, which might mean nothing from some other people, zood sign you have made them more thar: nermally interested in you. The round or oval hand is mnot the hand of the ascetic, but of the person who is fond of pleasure and beauty, also of comfort; and for the rest, of one who is sympathetic but somewhat passives not the sort of person likely to achieve great heights of fame or ambition, but quite likely to win through patient and strong effort a position of comparative comfort and luxury without an over- sacrifice of effort. Armenia’s Songs. Armenia has a distinctly national collection of songs, some of which have come down from perhistoric times. Through melodies transmitted from parents to children great na- of centuries are familiar to each gen- eration, preserving in songs a amount of historical facts that other- wise would have been lost.
