5TJEfjE? FEMALE WATCH DOG A MODERN
ANOMALY FAST PASSING AWAY
Even Madame Grundy Has Become Reconciled to the Disappear
ance of the Once Ubiquitous Chaperon.
i , , .
By ELLEN ADAIR
OF ALb the Institutions which have
been handed doWn to us from ages
pone by, the chaperon la tho one In the
most tlnnirer o( falling' Into Ihocuotis tie
euetucle Tho time was when thcachape
ron was nn all-
port tint planet tn
the social orbit,
when none of the
romantic afTalrs of
Ufa fould have
fionoon without the
presence of that
personage m o st
smiled upon ny
Madame Grundy.
But where Is she
now? To what In
accessible p t a o o
has she departed
nnd why? Why Is
It that mothers
who a few yearn
ngo would never
li a v e permitted
ko oft on nil-day
Ihclr tlailRhters to
Inunln with men friends tincliaocrOncd
now acquiesce to such excursions with
out batting an e clash? Is tho passing
of tho female watchdog a thing to bo
regretted or Js It a. blessing to be thank
ful for?
Tho chaperon, It atwon seems to mo,
was comparabto to tho fifth wheel of a
wagon, or rnther to the fifth tiro on an
automobile. It'o only carried ns a prepa
ration for an emergency accident Vou
might tako nine trips and never have
any use for this fifth lire, but on tho.
tenth, perhaps, a serloUH breakdown might
occur and tho extra tire would be the
ono thing responsible for carrlng you
back safely to tho haven of home
I havo enough faith In the average
young American man and woman to be
lieve that tho chaperon never was of
any greater need than tho fifth tire. Of
course. In tho days when girls were un
used to tho ways of the world; when
they were not let out of tho shadow of
the- home without being closely guarded
by an older woman experienced enough
to meet any contingency which might
arise, It was perhaps essential that some
watchful oo bo kept over them.
But now when young women nro forg

GLOOM DARKENS ITALY'S HOMES
AS HER MEN GO FORTH TO WAR
Woman Observer in Rome Sees Little Real Enthusiasm Among
the Masses of the People Poignant Grief
of Bereaved Families.
By INEZ MILHOLLAND BOISSEVAIN
(Cop) righted, 1913, by Tho New Tork Tribune.)
ROME, Juno !7.
THE1" tell me every ono tells me
that Italy was mad for war. Maybe.
But let me tell you what I have seen and
also what I havo heard.
Tho first station on Itnlian soil at which
the train stops is Modane. There wo
Mere delayed some time on account of
customs and passports.
.V group of olunteerB filed Into the sta
tion to tnko their places In tho train en
route for tho frontier. They marched
along singing and shouting amid tho
applaudlssmcnts of the by-standcrs.
Vollal War enthusiasm of tho ott-go
Then I discovered that nil of them were
In varying degrees under tho Inlluenco
of liquor.
A woman leaned against a pllo of lug
gage sobbing-. A soldier passed close to
her singing tho song of Garibaldi, It
was too much. "Fool!" sho screamed
at him, "Why do you sing? Don't you
know you nro going to your death? It
Is Just such nonsense as yours that has
taken my son away from me to be
slaughtered." "Slgnora," ho answered
her, "It Is better to dlo singing than sigh
ing" A naval ofllccr boarded tho train at
Genoa. Ho was on tho way to Join his
ship We spoke together, long and
soberly.
Ho said that war was unthinkable a
dreary waste, an enterprise that violated
his every Instinct. He had no heart for
It. But he did not see what else could
be dono to preserve the national Integ
rity. Had an alternative existed he
would gladly have welcomed the alterna
tive. But war had come and he must do
bis duty.
WOMAN'S PASSIONATE PROTEST
In the hotel here in Rome I spoke to
my femmo de chambre. "What do you
think of the war7" I asked her. She
turned to me, her patient body swung
Into n. poso of passionate protest tears
were In her eyes. "What do I think of
war, madam e? I, who havo sent my
husband to be killed, perhaps. I think
it is cruel, horrible, menacing, I think
It so unbearable that if there were a
revolution against war I should Join it.
Think, madame, what will happen to me
if my husband Is killed. Life will be
over for me, too, nnd who will look after
my little bambino. She, too, will die
Three of us dead then for nothing. Or,
If my husband Is wounded so that he
can not work, then I must support him
and my bambino. And I have alwas
worked. I would like some time to
rest "
Later I spoko to the head waiter. "Do
you like this war business?"
"Ah, madame. It is not pleasant, but
one must do one's duty "
"Does any one like It?"
"It ia here, madame; what can we do?"
"Protest, refuse to go."
"Ah, madame, then ono is shot as a
traitor It Is better to take a chance "
FORCED ENTHUSIASM.
I naked a friend who had been here
many sears, "Does itny one want this
war?" "Not that I can see," she said.
"Now that it Is here, they whip up their
enthusiasm because It must be faced. But
up to two days before the war they never
dreamed they -would havo it They yelled
and blustered, and suddenly, when It
came, they sobered Into realization."

deavor; when damsels show not tho
slightest hesitancy to travel unaccom
panied the world around, the chaperon
that Is, for nil unmarried women, with
out regard to their age or experience In
life Is rather an anomaly.
However, It does seem to me that Hie
watch-dog lady Is not altogether dis
pensable. So long as very young girls,
not yet out of high Bchool, are permitted
to "run around" with callow youths tho
chaperon ought not to pass out of ex
istence. Only the other day I was going down
to d seaside resort for the week-end when
a quartet of youngsters got on the train
The girls were sweet little things of 15
or 18 years of ago and tho bou cro
not moro thnn a couplo of years their
senior. They seemed to bo Just the
nvcrngo American fun-loving kids, a lit
tle boisterous, pcrhnps, but not crnrtsh
nn In Im rnl eil 10UC1 or vulKar. .iw
spoke of spending tho day at tho hore
and coming up on a lato train, and tney
enthused largely over tho nice surf bath
ing they were going to have.
It occurred to mo then thnt since these
children were not very far out of the
"nurso" stage, this was a clear ense'for
the chaperon. Somehow It seems rather
disillusioning to think that such young
sters are so well able to look after them
selves. I should havo liked to have seen
somo quiet Utile gray-halred woman Bit
ting unobtrusively
by, smiling at their
ebullient, outhful
spirits, watching
over nnd guiding
their pleasures with
out Interfering with
their enjoyment.
Porhnpo the fact
that tho art of chap
eroning wns such a
fine one, which only
tho few could ovor
hope to havo becomo
mistress of, was ro
tmonslble for Its ulti
mate death, but It seems to me that It
would be an unwlso move for Mndame
Grundy to banish her entirely. I,lko tho
fifth tire, her need may not be con
stant, but there aro times when she Is
wanted badly.
Another friend who lives In Home had
the same story to tell. "People are not
enthusiastic. At most they do their duty.
My chauffeur was called a week ago. Ho
cried I did what I could to console him;
so did other. The day after he left I
asked his friend how he behaved at tho
end. 'Alwnys the same, madame,' he
answered; 'crying, always tho same I
encouraged him. His father encouraged
him, but ho had no hope.' "
Here Is another version I asked a
Journalist, a correspondent of an Amcrl
enn paper, whether he would go gladly.
"Yes," he said, "like every ono else."
"But do the Italians like the wnr? That
has not been my Impression," I said.
"Like It? They love It. We are fighters
by tradition and training. Wo are not
llko your English officers soldiers part of
tho time. We are trained to hard light
ing; It Is In our blood The notion goes
to war exultant and stnglnc. ns I do."
D'ANNUNZIO'S CALL TO ARMS.
Especially was I convinced that this
was the state of mind of those who In
toxicate themselves with the Idea of
war an an heroic endeavor after I had
tallied with D'Annunzto nnd one or two
of the Nationalists (1. e., a group of
writers and Journalists whose motto Is
"United Italy" and who nro about the
only group, as far as I can see, who
ore enthusiastic and havo always been
enthusiastic for war). These gentlemen
view It from an Imaginative nnd story
telling standpoint, and not from a stand
point of reality. They live In tho past and
the traditions of the post.
"Italy must fight, else her chances of
national greatness are gone forever.
They get drunk themselves, and, of
course, they easily make a crowd drunk
with clap-trap of this sort. And thto.
us far as I can see, la what makes up
the enthusiasm that Is so diligently
written up for a Government which has
not gauged the enthusiasm of Its people
for war by a referendum the only ac
curate way to measure enthusiasm.
AN OFFICIAL EXPLANATION.
Another explanation of enthusiasm this
from an oftlclal high In Rome a non
party man. "How," I said, "If there was
no enthusiasm for war, do you account
for the demonstrations against Glollttl?"
"Here Is a way to account for pnrt of
them," he answered. "Tho Free Masons
were given a holiday. Tho sum of 75
centimes per man was paid by the French
Embassy to those who would participate
in the demonstration. A paid nucleus like
this could easily whip up the crowd, as
you can Bee. No; Italy did not want war.
She was a surprised nation to find her
self In the midst of It and wishes she
had these last few months over again.
Of course, now that she js in It she must
keep at it, and thereforo she keeps tell
ing herself how glad she is to bo where
she Is.
SOLDIERS LED TO SLAUGHTER.
"I watched the faces of some soldiers
off to the front. Thoy were being
marched through the streets by an ex
cited, cheering crowd, I noticed that
they did very little cheering themselves.
They looked a bit dazed They each had
tricycles and side by side with each
tramped friends and relations. The
frlenda, of course, were very Jolly (oh,
that Jubilant business of sending some
body else to fight!). The mothers and
sisters, and little children were not so
Jolly, though they were swept along by
a feeling of prldo In him about whom
everybody was making- such a fuss.

This has dainty tucks
and edgings of the lace,

The splendid arrangoment of exhibits
represents weeks of nrduous work on tho
part of tho members of tho association.
Not tho least of this haa been tho tltno

How We Helped One Father to
Find the Right School for His Son
A gentleman from Norfolk, Va., came to Philadelphia some two weeks ago,
called at LEDGE& CENTRAL and asked us for advice concerning the proper
school for his son, who had been attending a private day school, but had not
been doing satisfactory work. He was behind, his class, and, to use a popular
phrase, needed "jacking up." ftAfter getting the facts in the case we suggested
a boarding school of splendid reputation and put both parties in touch with
one another. The headmaster of the school secured an appointment, journeyed
from Harrisburg to Norfolk, and the parents of thc boy were so impressed by
his personality and what LEDGER CENTRAL had told them about the
school that they registered him at once. flThe "matter was settled with the
minimum amount of trouble and expense. The mother wrote us a sincere
letter of appreciation, which well repays for the service rendered. flYou can
obtain as good service for your boy or girl by getting in touch with the
"School Mah" at LEDGER CENTRAL. He has inspected the schools and
' studied them and he knows the strong and weak points of each. flCall If you
can;otherwise, -write or phone.
