Are the young people of this country uficiently impressed with the fmpo: becoming acquainted with the stitution of the United States? This ompted by the experience of a young man. a graduate of Sheflield Scien- tifle school at Yale, who was refused tizenship papers when he declared to the judge in the naturalization court that he had never seen the Constitution d knew nothing about ft. How many Bers would be cbliged to answer the sestion in the same way if they should #o %0 honestly? How many more would be obliged to declare that even though they had seen the Constitution they had never read it? From such facts as are known about the case of this young man it doesn't appear that be would not make a gond citizen. The indications are that had he afclosed a knowledge of the Con- stitution he would have been granted papers. That he thoroughly understands the English language and has done so for some years is to be gathered from the fact that he got his degree at Yale peven years ago, but he had neverthe- less negiected a vital matter in connec- tion with his education, which may be ® defeat that many citjzens would have to plead guilty to The judge hearing the naturalization sases was probably as mach astonished %3 have been those who read about the rase, barring the fact that there is no telling what may develop on such an vocasion, but it was a situation which vould mot be overlooked. It was time to direct attention to the importance of the Comstitution in connection with this wovermment. and that #t was vital in/ con- nection with good citizenship that it should b read and understood by ap- to become citizens of It is & case which may well place the Propet emphasis upon the need of bring ing about a better knowledge of the tion by gvery eitizen that it can- not be said by grammar or high school yraduates or holders of college degrees ihat they have never seem the Constitu tion and know nothing about it.

THE COAL COMMISSION, As members of the commission to s cure the facts surrounding. the coal in- Gustry in this country, President Hard- ing has named men who are qualified to successtully accomplish the object sought. They are men of recognized ability and men in whom the country will have confidence, It must be Te- garded as an impartial body whosé sole object will be to meet the requirements of national welfare, and through such recommendations as it will make to pre- vent such conditions as “developed dur- ing the recent and previous coal strikes, Inasmuch as the commission has but vestigations in the bituminous field it to be expected that it will devote its first efforts in that direcion,-leaving he inquiry into the anthracite field to co Iater, Whenever trouble has developed in the coal fields the consumer has always bien obliged to suffer. Fixing things up amongst themselves has been to the detriment of the public. Efforts to bring about reforms have been confron with long- established conditions which stand in the way. Inefficlency and over: manning are always pointed out and de- spite the repetition of coal strikes and the embarrassment to the coal consum- ers nothing has been done that correets the underlying trouble. The need has ben rcognized but efforts in 4hat dirsc- tion have stopped as soon as strike sot- tiements were reached. Hopes are piaced in this fact finding commissia to so disclose 'conditions that the public will not be placed at the mercy of. cither miners or operators in the futnre. The probe should go to the bottom a.d leave nothing undisclosed. ‘ S WORKING FOR SAFETY. Safety week in New York has opéned with a zest that should mean good re- sults, not only for the period that it ers but in the future. When it is real- ized that in the past nine months there have been 1,370 persons killed by auto- mobiles and motor trucks in New York state it is as clear as an open book that some dfferent measures in behal? of safety are needed. Tt doesn't mean that there ean be any relaxation in the efforts that are already being made for the suppression of th: reckless driver, for that work must gc on more assiduously than ever, but there is an opportunity for other users of the highways to make the most of their opportunities for self protection. It is not to be presumed that those who are killed crossing tho streets actually throw themselyes under the death-deal- ing machines, or that wild driving through the streets should be tolerated. But when the exercise of a trifie m cantion will mean the prevention of ac cidents and will serve to avoid broken bones and, other injuries there is exce lent justification for those efforts which are directed toward bringing” the indi- vidual to give better attenjorf go his own welfare, T with the curbing of the reckless there can be such cooperation om the part of the individual, and particularly 50 in the case of children, the much de- sired reduction in the needless waste of human life can be accomplished. With such an end in view the object is a most commendable one. It calls not only for adequately dealing with the reckless au- to drivers but equally strong measares for the checking of carelessness dis- played by individuals, especially the children, Safety is highly desiratle but elusive goal. ¥ EDITORIAL NOTES.

Mrs. Neff. heard the taxi at the door and she came right over the moment Aunt Nell got upstairs, “‘Oh, Mrs. Allertone,' she said, T was afraid -you had been called out of town or something. A taxi or a telegraph boy always frightens,me. I thodght maybe I could help you in some way.’ ““Thank you,’ 1 replied, ‘there's mo cause for anxiety at all. The taxi sim- ply brought my aunt from the station. She has come to lunch. “‘Oh, now nice! I know you must be delighted, Mrs, Allertone. I have heard you speak of your aunt so offen and so admiringly that I am awfully glad 1 ran in, "because I really long to meet her. “Of course I had to introduce her to Aunt Nell, who was just emerging from her bedroom, where she had laid off her wraps. She was most effusive and she named a dozen people that she thought Aunt Nell might know in Waukegan. She did all the talking and when I began to set the table for lunch she insisted upon taking the job out of my hands. “‘Why, of course I'm going to help you,' she said, and then she laughingly inquired how many places sh& should lay. Ihad to say three. It was only two days previously that she had had lunch- eon here. She came in early in the moen- ing, to show me some samples of dress goods and when she found me making grapefruit marmalade nothing would do but that she must assist me. She stayed all day and when, just as I began to pre- pare dinner, she left. she took two jars of the marmalade with her. “One-evening last week, when Jack was preparing to read gloud to me from the new biography of Queen Victoria which he has borrowed from his chief irf the of- fice, and which we can't keep long, she came in with some phonograph records | she thought we should like to hear on our | machine, She staved until 10 o'clock, and then, as the door closed after her, Jack said he was too tifed and cross to do anything but g0 to bed, so we had none of the biography tiiat night, and last evening she dropped in again just as Jack opened the book. She had copied a recipe FAMOUS ACTRESSES ~ BEENHAEDT. Tt was at the Convent de Grandchamps, Versailles, that Sarah Bernhardt, then 12, attracted such attention #\a presentation staged for the Archbishop of Paris that her immediate preparation for the real stage was assured. That was in 1857. Bernhardt was born at Parls Oct. 22, 1844, Her father was a merchant of Amsterdam, and her mother, Julie Bern- hardt, was a Berlin Jewess. From this fact has e¥own the error that Bernhardt was herself a Jewess. Placed in the Versailles convent in girlhood, she be- came a devout Catholic. It one cares for the full name of this striking genius, whose single name will never die in histrionic letters, it is Rosina Sarah Bernhardt. Her progress was so rapid following the brilliant child effort at the convent that at 18 she appeared at the Comedie Francaise. in the role of Iphigenie. There was rager a doubt about her success from the very begin- ning of her remarkable career—a fact that stands out in-arked contrast with the stories of nearly all of the -great dctresses of the world. A marvelous voice, grace and that com- pelling personality that makes her the real center of the stage, even while an- other is speaking, and holds the audience to the listener rather than the speaker, catapulted her to public favor. She ap- peared at the Gymnasie, Porte St. Martin and Odeon for a time and then eeturned to the Comedie Francaise in 1872. She was made a “sociataire” in 1875 and five years later when she left for her first visit to England and America she was fined $20.000 for leaving the country. When she returned to Paris iri 1881 she became director of the Theatre Ambigu, and the following year found her mar. Tied to M. Dumola. She bought the Porte St. Martin next. year and many of her most noted productions appeared there. Ameriga saw her again in 1886, and then at Paris. the Porte St. Martin, Renais- sance and Theaire des Mations, renamed the Sarah Bernhardt, held her. So great is the popular interest in this strange woman that exact detafls only take upnecessary space. Her greates role is in “The Lady of the Camilia: ommonly called “Camille.” “Hamlet." Frou-Frou,” “IL/Aiglon.” her own play, L'Avéeu” and a long list are currently known as her vehicles. During hee many visits to the United States she captpred and held public at- tention. People Who knew no French caught her meaning from the effective pantomime’ and expressed feeling that translated to the heart what the mind might not understand. On one of her tours, in 1906, the Shuberts. who man- aged her, were at war with Klaw & Er- langer, and the latter declined’ to open their houses to her. She appeared many times in a huge tefit. A writer, a sculptor and a painter, she seems to have run the limit of artis- tic accomplishments. - At an age that would have been prohibitive to most per- sons, she underwent an operation in which one of her limbs was amputated. Even this affliction could not keep the grand old woman from the boards. Holding to a chair. she declaimed her lines with the same old zeal that compelled and held interest. . Of very recent years she has appeared in short plays, designed to meet her age and infirmity, and Youth has not yet died in the heart of a woman whose body is fast fading. She has completed her pre; arations for death with the same enthusi asm that marked hee initial work for life, A tiny, rocky islet has been bought in the Bay of Biscay, only a few acres. She has purchased her casket, and gives or- ders that she shall be buried where the wea may ever roll about her tomb. Mean- time, she still acts. Her art remains, She will be ever known as the wonder woman of two centuries and all conti- nents, Stories That Recall Others , ‘The Miscellaneous Book.
