Kate had so willed. Of course, we base our statement on Mr. Pollock's own hvnothesis 'on des tiny all ronds lead to the samp pnd. Thp pomforting thought, however, is thnt Mr. Pollock has done so well witli the theme we have no wish It had been otherwise. He hnR handled the subject boldly nnd nrtisticnllj, nnd it Is being interpreted by a company of capable actors, of which Plorence Heed is the particularly bright liiminnry. Kfforts of peerers into the future nnd of those who would explain the things nnd happenings of life not of our volition are usually interesting, evpn though thp applied or resulting philosophy Is sometimes muddled, "lloads of Destiny" is no exception. The true fatalist defines destiny ns fixed order of things, established by n divine decrpp or indissoluble onnnpction of causes nnd effects; ultimate deter minism; invincible necessity. He usually believes there is but onp course In life left open to us. Hut Mr. Pol lock ir a, little more libernl in his con ception, if his piny can be nccepted ns representing his views.

The trentment of "lloads nt Des tiny" Is episodic, in the style of "Byes or Youth.'' The theme of the Pollock piny., however, Is diffpient. In "I'jes of Youth" the heroine is permitted to see the future of severnl ronds open to her. but by choice eho shapes her own destiny, one tinlike what eltlipr of the other tvva revenled would hnve been, Mr. Pollock built his piny upon n suggestion in n tnle nt the snme title by O.
