HENRY VAN DYKE, preacher and diplomat, says we are suffering from what he is inclined to designate as “fat- witted optimism.” That is, we fought the war for all there was in it, and then, filled with an unwise optimism, we stopped fa short of the peace we really desired. The good doctor describes the trouble accurately enough, but his conclusion is defective. Did the doctor ever s age play harour’? that developed a thrilling scene in the vay second act—so thrilling that the third and How final act seemed to be flat and empty? soldiers That is what is called an ante-climax. We did fight the war to the utmost of our strength, physical, mental and moral. Tt was a climax in the big play of nations of the world. We do want peace, honestly, sincerely and thoroly. But it seems a pale propo- sition immediately following the big act. It suffers from the ante-climax. Fat- witted optimism has nothing to do with it People who talk as does Dr. Van Dyke do not know human nature or human emo- tions. And, more the pity, they give voice to their utter iack of understanding. Gloria on the Go LORIA SWANSON, film star, is one of the women who loves to see things ‘git up and git. as just married a French marquis, after what the Paris dispatches call a “whirlwind romance.” It is Gloria’s third marital whirlwind, divorces being part of the other two instances. Moreover, Gloria promptly announces that she wants six or eight children. She already has one of her own and one by adoption, and there will be no doubt about the whirlwind effects if she reaches her desired quota. Also, of course, there are whirlwind possibilities in a French mar- quis of these times. Verily, even for a young woman, Gloria is extraordinarily fond of whirlwinds. Q.
