By ca erty, per week Be ai rane Mme. Petrova—the Woman | Mme. Olga Petrova was hostess at a dinner party in} rivate dining rooms of the New Washington Friday night Fer. list of guests included no members of Seattle's smart set. Her guests were the young girl ushers at the Moore tre. For Mme. Petrova is not content to be a public idol. She} vastly more than that. She is a successful authoress, a Wonderful actress, an accomplished musician, an intelli-| onl wife of a New York physician, but, above all, she is a/ ine type of modern womanhood. Z That, perhaps, explains why she reaps genuin tion out of a dinner party to the young girls who serv ushers. She entertained to give the maximum of ple to those whose hearts hunger for her consideration, | It is, perhaps, because she is so intensely human, that pts her to recite her sensible and poetic lines on mother- , even to vaudeville audiences. They are so frank, so} universally true, so defiant of narrow puritanism, that they seem almost inspired. And they reveal the joy in life that e satisfac-! as sure} y come to all of us when we advance to a viewpoint such}, as hers, Those who have failed to hear her “To a Child Who In- quires,” written by Petrova herself, have missed a real treat. The Star is glad to publish. it herewith: How did you come to me, My Sweet, From the Land that no man knows? Did Mr. Stork bring you here an his wings Were you born in the heart of a rose? Jown trom the sk rry pateh? Did an angel fly with ye Were you found in a goom Did a fairy bring you from Fairyland? To my door that was left on a latch? No, My Darling was born of a wonderful love; | A love that was daddy's and mine A love that was human, but deep and profound; A love that was almost divine. Do you remember, Sweetheart, when we went to thm zoo? | And we hat big ar with a grouch? And the tigers and I and that tall kangaroo, That carried her babes in a pouch? saw Do you remember I told you she kept them there mf 4 and the wind till they grew nough to take care of themselves? And, ‘Dear Heart, that’s just hotv I first cared for you I carried you under my heart, My Sweet, . nd I sheltered you safe from alarms one wonderful day the dear God looked down And My Darling iay in my arms.

Where is a time when the word Truth means nothing, ‘whatever to a child. Any thought that fills his mind seems gs true as any other. A little later, when he asks, “Is it true?” he is satisfied! the voice of Authority. Truth means to him what! went or teacher says or approves of.

And if he has no; gang to be loyal to, then truth may mean to him more than the story that serves his interest. gradually does any one come to think of truth consistent agreement with fact and to test it by constant | veference to a real world,of things as they are. ' here are many persons who do not reach this stage at all, but all their lives long they loudly proclaim as true the} story that happens to fit their fancy or their interests or| their party prejudices, wholly regardless of the way in| which fact connects with fact thruout the whole great world. They can never see what they are missing. And yet all the reservationists ask is that America | shall have a little of Wilson’s self-determination. Marquesans are a dying race, says Frederick O’Brien. He has written a book about them, after a year in the Mar- quesas Islands. These lie in the South Pagific, midway be- tween Australia and South America. Marquesans once numbered several hundred thousand Now they total 500. New les have been appearing and disappearing since} the world But disappearance of a race always is tragic. Its last survivors seem to take on a peculiar dignity from the fact that their line is doomed. Cooper, the novelist, made the most of it in “The Last of the Mohicans.” esans, however, are more interesting in the specu-| lation about their origin than about their end.
