When he comes home tired and asks for| a little tune he gets nothing but musical gymnastics, — The whole feminine part of the community, he thinks, is in a conspiracy to upliit him, and he doesn’t want to be “ > ns just like father to make a complaint like that. Father never did take kindly to culture, He sits disconsolate in the draughty kitchen, while daughter's Browning Circle meets in the front room It is mother’s idea entirely that he put on an uncomfort- able collar in the evening and hear a missionary lecture on Borneo. : ; Father's taste for music stops short at Suwanee River, and he knows almost nothing about the minor poets and the pre-Rapaelites. His art ideas are derived from the illustrated Sunday supplement. He will not sit in a Louis XVI. chair, He cares not a whit for the pottery of the ancient Chaldeans. Shirtsleeves and carpet slippers are his conception of cor- rect evening dress for gentlemen. There is little hope that anything permanent can ever be done for father. When the millennium comes he will still be found reading his newspapet, smoking up the window cur- tains, impeding the advance of culture—and paying the bills. ACTRESS HELEN COLLIER says matrimony's too stupid for her; chicken raising suits her better, so she buys a Pasadena ranch. Hens may be less stupid than husbands, but if Helen hungers for Al excitement, she should try . raising goats. They're ‘way ahead of Pasadena husbands IT’S ONLY the coward, the craven who feels himself vanquished by fair means, who resorts to fouling tactics and hitting below the belt. That's why the standpat gangsters, afraid to meet “Bob” Hodge in open battle on state issues, are shooting poisoned bullets at him from the back. The Call of the Mother Land Here’s to the Greeks and Bulgarians and Servians and Montenegrins of Seattle and the Northwest : Good red blood flows through their veins, and they have the right kind of hearts and brains : By hundreds they are giving up prosperous business anc steady work, and answering the call of their mother country in the war with Turkey. They are going about it very quietly and calmly, and without ostentation—just the way. in fact, WE believe WE would do in like circumstances War is an awful thing, but the old world hasn't quite outgrown it. And if this nation ever has to endure it again, we can be sure that the new citizens from the “old countrie will be as ready to fight for their adopted land as they are to help their mother country in her time ot need Observations SAN FRANCISCO has 180,000 more male than female residents, speaking of humans, not of fleas THE STAR—MONDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1912.
