Yet the generation of to- day pitifully needs tho old Greek spirit, the consuming ardor for love- ness which prayed, “Give me beauty of the inward soul and may the in- ward and the outward man be at one.” So I sought from Miss Duncan certain suggestions for the American mother who would see her child de- velop Into beautiful and balanced ma- turity. The great dancer shook her head a little over tho request, for she goes all the way with Plato and be- lieves, theoretically at least, in com- munity rather than individual mother-, hood, But this is what @he sald: “The first and moet important thing is to develop the desire for beauty in the child. The way to do that is to place him In an at- mosphere of beauty. Children are wonderfully responsive; they have in them unlimited itis teachers that bring out what is bad and ugly or what is beautiful and good. Even their bodies will instinctively emu! beautiful, ideal forms placed where the chil- dren must see. If it is impossible to surround them with beautiful pictures and marbles, at least do | not hurt them with ugly lines and | colors and awkward movements.” | Miss Duncan belleves with her |great Greek master that there ts a close connection between goodness and grace, “If our youth are to do their work in life," we read in tho Republic, “they must make grace and harmonies their chief aim, And surely the art of the painter and every other creative and constructive art are full of them—weaving, embroidery, archi- tecture and every kind of manufac- ture; also natu animal and vege- table, In all of them there is grace or the absence of grace.

Miss Duncan believes that democ- racy should be encouraged amon; children, Hers come from all nations and classes of society, and she is ine dignant if anyone asks her charges what positions their fathers hold, The atmosphere surrounding the children tends to make them remark- ably indifferent to money and com: mercial values, When one little girl's aunt brought her 4 five-frano pl the child confessed that she couldn't think of any way to use it, “How do the children in this coun- try impre: “I be!

Suit to Recover Papers Reveals He Has Inherited $40,000 Estate. Down in the dark and unsympathet- lo recesses of a safe deposit box at No, 60 Wall Street—where they won't be appreciated at all, though they are bursting with protestations of burn- ing love and affection—are three bundles of expensively crested letters, the only mementoes of the romance that led, last June, to the elopement of Max F. Kleist with Miss Juliette Breitung, society bud and daughter of Edward N. Breitung, millionaire bank The Breltungs employed Kleist as a chauffeur and gardener. The letters, Kleist says, are badly |’ needed in the trial of his $250,000 allen- ation of affections suit against Mr. Breitung and his wife, Charlotte, who are accused of having taken thelr daughter away from her gardener husband. Kleist says he cannot put bis hand on one of the lettera, even though they are his and the endear- ing phrases in them were meant for him only. The former chauffeur took steps in the Supreme Court to-day not only to get the key to the vault but to pre- vent any one else touching the love tters until his right to them Is de- termined by Supreme Court Justice Newburger. Kleist seeks an injunc- tion especially directed to his attor- ney, Joseph A. Shay, restraining the lawyer, with whom Kleist han disputed, from touching a single mis- Bive in the aweet collection. He also wants a new lawyer, and has retained EB. C. Crowley of No. 37 Wall Street to prosecute the action fer him. As @ result of this dispute, Kleist alleges, Shay won't let him have the ters or see them, and he fears that they may be destroyed or lost. They must never fall into mocking hands, The first were written by the former Miss Breitung while she was being secretly courted by him, says Kleist, and they disclose how fervent bd the love of a rich young wom- an for a young man who lived in a room over her father's garage. The second batch were written immediate- ly after the marriage and while it was still a secret. The last collection came to him after his wife had gone to her parents, but, he says, they show, nev- ertheless, her yet undying affection for him. “These last letters,” says Kleist, “showed the first efforts on the part of my wife's parents to alienate her affections. They also asserted her great love for me. The firat batch, written before marriage, spoke only of our real love, Some were written to me while I was far away from her, but all of them showed her strong love and affection. When Kleist married Miss Breitung he was poor. Now, however, he says, he hus inherited @ $40,000 estate from his father. When he turned the ullenation suit over to Attorney Shay, Kleist 4n agreement waa imade whereby Shay was to receive 50 per cent, of all money recovered from the Bret- tungs, Kleist says the same agree- ment wan made in respect to the col- tion of his inheritance.
