She shut herself in a room, so that her three.screaming chil dren couldn't get to her d themselves burn to death. Neighbors rescued her, but she was frightfully burned, Maybe death, probably months in bed, say the hospital folks. And the suffering woman smiles thru her bandages, They send for the husband, a blind, half-paralyzed man, who holds a small job as city telephone operator. An awful meeting of the near-dead and the half-dead, you . But, tho blind, that husband feels the cheer of the wife, his loyal helpmeet, as she says: “You just go home and see if the chil dren are all right. I'll be fine here. And don’t you worry Later, the reporters find Fowlie upon the doorstep of his little home, raises his brave with its eyes, and says: “To be sure little Tommy is in there in a cast with infantile paralysis and every one of the children has had mumps, measles and whooping cough. But we managed somehoy nd will. My wife is the best a man ever had and we've lots of the best friends in the world. Why, I've got everything in the world to live for. Troubles just make a man work harder.” There are instances when one-half the world can find the real life philosophy in the lives of the other, the humbler, half. “A White House Spokesman Says” T has long been the rule that the presi- dent must not be quoted by newspaper correspondents. Twice each week—! day noon and Friday 4 p. m.—the cor- respondents gather around the pres dent’s desk for enlightenment on current subjects of interest. They write what they learn, but they must not attribute their information to the president. They must say, “A White House spokesman say is learned at the White House,” “Those close to the presi- dent say,” “The White House let it be- come known,” “According to an intimate friend of the president,” or some one of the other mysterious phrases to which newspaper readers have become accu tomed. But they must not say, “the presi- dent says.” The president confines his discus sitting He sightless face, Pues- ion of P P Answers to Your Questions @.

This is for the president's protection against mis quotation. That is to say, it is to pre vent any correspondent from attributing to “The White House spokesman,” “A close friend of the president,” or any of the other disguises, something which the president did not say. Occasionally the president has seen fit to deny certain statements attributed to himself in this indirect, round-about man ner, Then correspondents e sought and obtained ‘access to the official stenog rapher’s notes to settle the question of ac curacy, Without going into the question which proved to be correct, the president or the correspondent, there is this to be told: The president has stopped all ac cess to the stenographer’s notes and has also ordered that the correspondents, who happen to be stenographers also, may not take stenographic notes.
