Member of the United Press, Pub- Mehed dally by The Star Pubiish~ THE GLORY OF AUTUMN To the children the blessed and now fast-waning summer has seemed long. To them every day in the great out-of-doors The more years they live the shorter will has been a lifetime. awhile they will be exclaiming, as all seem the days, and after men do, “How time flies!” Soon the frost will be on the ground. Yes, and how fast has the summer slipped away! Autumn has its glory, Some of us love it better than spring or summer, Certainly it carries a splendid appeal to the eye Tf such a thing were possible, wouldn't it be fine to go 10,000 miles up into the air and look back upon the autumn scene of North America? We would see such a riot of color as to dazzle us—it would look like a giant diamond On the Pacific coast there would be the brown tones of the sun-burned grass and the rich dark green of the rank leaves of that semi-tropical country, In the northwest the snow capped mountains would sparkle like crystal points, fields glisten brightly for one facet to our diamond. : "The grays and blacks of the Rocky mountains and flat yellows and browns of the desert countries would make deep tones for our wonderful Stone, but in its heart we would see the most glorious colors of all—rich, deep, transparent, softly gleaming gold; and dull, pitch black The gold would be the sheen of the stubble fields, after the harvests; the black, the mark of the impatient, hopeful plow, doing next year's work Red, purple, green would pass in a stately parade, north- wards through the tops of the forests, leaving a seared, yellow trail behind them. Eastward there would be the purple and green of the vine- yard; southward, the white of the cotton mingling with the blackness of the newly turned earth in the cotton fields. There would be many beautiful facets of green in the middle west and east. The dull grays of vast cities on the castern coast would merge into the intense blues of the Atlantic ocean Such would be the scene in autuma, the season of glory Nature, setting the example, bids us be happy and bright and hopeful in autumn, ‘The chances are that the white; Chicago missed a fine bet when girl who hastily marries a Jap will /{t did not pull off an impromptu not repent at leisure.

And the matron at the ata tion found a $10 bill in one of her stockings. Adam claimed to recognize a strawberry mark on that bill, and the lady waa held on a charge of «rand larceny.
