Could there be anything more naive- a ly intimate with readers or honest toward the general public than a column of editorial announcing “The Public Be Served. I’m Going to Get Out of Town?” And what More sweetly en rapport with readers than the details given? “Our first stop,” says Cornelius, “will be Seattle.” Pride, almighty justifiable pride, prompts him to explain why he first stops at Seattle thus: “Five years ago, your publisher was a cub reporter on fan evening paper there. Today the man for whom he then worked is working for him as business manager of the San Francisco Illustrated Daily Herald.” O joy! O joy! Just think of hitting a town where one was cuffed around as cub reporter, with the fellow who did it now working for one! What a heavenly start for an ex-cub reporter’s vacation! And, ye miserable editors who are sweating over dog- _ days’ politics read further: “Ten days from now we shall be arriving at our wilder- Ness estate in the northwestern portion of Vancouver island, British Columbia. Here we own a small island in the center of a large and very far-distant lake. Peace supreme may be enjoyed; no telephone, no electricity, no gas; simply back to nature in a frontier land.” Get it, ye miserable slaves of the quill? Peace su- preme, simple nature, without telephone, gas or elec- ' tricity, on an island all one’s own at one's wilderness estate! Not one blamed effort, save to scratch where Vancouver fleas alight and swing your hat at British ‘Columbia mosquitoes, and maybe a hired man to do that. Good-bye, and God bless you, Cornelius! You are the real stuff on editorial vacations. What’s the Matter? OMETHING momentous has just happened in Port- land, Maine—something that will startle the modern world that is now filled with bobs and shaved necks Where once such things never were known or feared. Mrs. Julia Seaton was delivering a lecture on hair be- fore a large and interested audience there. She came to a point in her talk where it was necessary to have, for exemplification, a short-haired person. Stepping blithely front, Mrs. Seaton sweetly asked if one of her hearers with bobbed hair would please be so kind as to come to er assistance on the stage? Deep silence. Then rubber-necking. Then peering here and there and everywhere thruout the hall. Then “Nervous rustling of silks and flutter of handkerchiefs. ‘Then titters and giggles and falsetto laughter. Mrs. Sea- ton waited—and waited. No response. Again she asked ‘for help, assuring her auditors that no unpleasant ex- ’ perience would be the lot of the one who offered as- sistance. More giggles and more fluttering of silk. But no one stepped forward. There wasn’t a bobbed head in the house! there wasn’t. A young man from outside—a mere man—had to be drafted by the lecturer in order that she might put her _ point over to the ladies. Good, old, stable Maine may grow excited and ram- bunctious when it comes to politics, as the ancient cam- “paign ditty records, but in the matter of fashioning Jadies’ hair, it simply declines to “go hell-bent.” LETTER FROM V RIDGE MANN Sune 20, 1924.
