"SATTRADAY AT SIX"
"Mother" Pulled Her Off the Stage
Jack Trfilt has a s'ory called "Satur
day at Six" In the October American
Magazine in -which a young girl -who
dances wonderfully agrees to dance
with a cabaret dancer and then go on
the vaudeville stage. She does it
ugainst her mother's wishes but when
she hears Buster sing "Mother," she
Huits. This ts how it happened:
"Buster, with her painfully pinked
Cheeks, her baby coiffure recoiling
from It In coarse, stiff brushes, let. out
her corrugated iron voice, slighting
the verse, smashing into the chorus:
" 'M is for the millllyun things she
(tayuvo me—'
"The waiter sidled up to Myrtle,
wiped the bottom of a goblet with his
towel and deposited the cocktail before
her.
"'O means OHNNIy THAT she's
growing o-ho-ho-ho-old—'
"Myrtle took the stem of the glass
between her thumb and her finger.
?ASTOR |a F.rtt.HindCMtn |^ t <"
The Kind You Have Always Bought of
MONDAY EVENING.
She held it up and looked through!
the mixture at the light.
"'T is for the teayers she sh%d to!
sayave me—'
"Myrtle started the glass toward herj
lips.
" 'H is for her HEART—as peeyure '
;as go-ho-lio-old— 1
! "Myrtle's wrist trembled. She
rested her elbow more firmly on the
table.
" 'E is for her eyes, with love-light
sheYln-ing—*
"The elbow rest was not successful.
It acted only as a fulcrum on which
her now quite unsteady forearm
swayed so that a drop of the drink was |
spilled.
" 'R means right, and RIGHT she'll |
aw-liaw-hawlwnys be—'
"The elbow slipped back, the arm !
slid down the edge of the table until
the base of the glass rested flatly on |
tho cloth.
"'Put the mall together—they spell i

I man telephoned to a neighbor's. Yes,
ithe dog was there; he and the chll

Ten minutes later, as doggie had
not shown up, the owner telephoned
again. The reply was that, they liad
tried to send Jet home, but he would
not go. "Bring him to the telephone,"
was the request. Jet was placed on a
chair and the receiver held to his ear.
I "Come, Jet! Come, Jet!" called his

BARRISBTTRO TELEGRAPH
Y.M.C.A.GYMTO
OPEN OCTOBER 2
Big Improvement Made Under
Direction of New Physi
cal Director
The embargo on exercise that was
placed on the gymnasium of the
Young Men's Christian Association at
Second and Locust streets, by the new
physical director, C. W. Millej, has
been lifted, and the apparatus, com
pletely overhauled and now In per
fect working order, will be ready for
the opening of classes on October 2.
During the past two weeks the new
director has been busy making radi
cal changes for the better in the ar
rangement of the gym floor, and the
new apparatus that has been ordered
will include a new supply of wands,
a new punching bag and boxing
gloves. New lines have been laid on
the floor for handball, indoor baseball,
volleyball and basketball, and the
dumbbells and Indilan clubs have all
been removed from the sidewalls and
placed in a case. The windows have
been covered with heavy wire screens
for the purpose of giving them greater
protection and the overhead apparatus
fitted out with hoisting attachments.
Some of tho obsolete equipment has
been entirely removed from tho gym
floor, and the whole change made with
a view to greater floor space and more
efficient handling of the existing equip
ment.
An interesting departure from the
work of any previous gymnasium In
structor at the local Y. M. C. A. will be
the installation of a pjano that will be
employed for all gym classes. Martial
music, that is an inspiring stimulus
to exercise will be provided for all
classes. A tentative schedule at this
time Includes classes for boys from 10
to 12 years of age; junior boys' class,
12 to 14; Intermediates, 14 to 16; em
ployed boys' class, two classifications
for young men and two classes of
businessmen. There will nlso be a
class for ministers, in all probability.
MRS. RIPPIN MENDER
OF BROKEN HEARTS
tContinued From Fditorial Page]
I civil procedure. In case of religious
difference, Mrs. Rippin has a pet ques
tion: "When you were a boy did you
ever row a boat"" she asks the man.
He smiies. "Sui j," he answers. "Well,
when you were rowing nnd you saw
rocks ahead, did you steer on them?"
she asks. "Of course not," he re
plies. "Well, with you and your wife
religion is rocks," Airs. Rippin con
cludes. "Steer clear of the subject."
Then he sees it.
There are many interesting stories
of human salvage in the .files of Mrs.
Rippin's office. One may be chosen
to illustrate tho patience and ever
hopeful spirt of this work: The hus
band in this instance began married
life with an earning power of two
hundred and fifty dollars a month. He
belonged to clubs, and drank—not to
excess, but it cost him his place.
When his wife came to the probation
office, she announced her willingness
and ability to support herself and
child, but objected to the added bur
den of her unproducing husband. A
new position was obtained for him,
and he was placed under careful su
pervision. The employer understood
the conditions and was willing to give
his sympathetic co-operation; but
after several weeks of patient toler
ance he discharged him and told Mrs.
Rippin that he believed the only ef
fective remedy for him was the "stone
pile.
The husband, on his side, declared
that the work was not congenial, and
promised to "make good" if he had a
job to his liking. He was given an
other chance, and required to report
regularly to a physician. Within a
month he had sold some of his pos
sessions and fled. The physician re
ported that he had deteriorated and
the case was more hopeless than.ever.
But Mrs. Rippin hunted him. and
found him. He was placed in a hos
pital and remained under treatment
for three months. Then he was given
a new position. For six weeks he was
required to return to the hospital
at the end of each day's work. This
position he has held since. His earn
ing power is almost the same as in the
beginning. He has become again a
contributor to his community, and his
normal home life ha* been renewed
In January this year, Colonel Roose
velt passed an hour in Mrs. Rippin's
office.
i ou re the kind of public servant
? s t- v ® ry existence not only
Philadelphia but the whole United
fetates should be profoundly grateful "
said the ex-President as he departed
beaming. '
And at least fifty thousand Phila
delphia's are ready to back up the
Colonel s statement.
