SHE WAS
t UNCLE ED’S
WIDOW
10-04-0000: 0-0- 00. O00 Oe
(® by D. J Walsh.)
ALLY had inherited her from
her mother, who had first pos-
sessed Aunt Lulu. Poor, fret-
ted little Mrs. Marsh had loved
to talk about her Uncle Ed's widow,
how rich she was and how possible it
was that a part at least of those riches
would come to Hally ultimately.
Uncle Ed had made his money in
some sort of a mine—silver or copper;
Mrs. Marsh had never been sure
which. She strove to keep up friend-
ly relations with Uncle Ed's widow,
writing her and sending her little
gifts, Once a year or so, Aunt Lulu
wrote the briefest letter. Otherwise
she remained impenetrable.
When her mother died, Hally took
up the correspondence with Aunt
Lulu. It was likely to prove a bur.
den, for Hally was beset with anx-
iety. Her mother’s prolonged sickness
had taken the last of their money be-
sides leaving a few debts which Hally
must pay. The girl was obliged to
leave school and take a position in a
store, giving up her dreams of success
for hard reality. She did not ask
Aunt Lulu for help; she told her noth-
ing save that her mother had died. Tt
was four months before Aunt Lulu
answered and then her letter was lit-
tle more than a note of correspond-
ence,
By that time Dick had appeared in
Hally's life. Dick worked in the same
store and studied evenings. He was
bound to be a draftsman and when
Hally looked into his clear gray eyes
she knew that he had will enough
and courage enough and brains enough
to attain his goal. It seemed impos
sible that anybody so fine as Dick
could come to Ler. But he did. And
she adored him. Why, the first mo-
ment she saw him she knew that a
great window had opened to her vi-
sion which was never to close, Dick's
personality produced just that effect
of emerging vista, freedom and gen-
erous light in her gray existence.
One summer afternoon she and
Dick walked out to the lake's edge
and sat on a bench gazing upon that
misty blue. The breeze stirred her
uncovered fair hair and whipped the
color into her cheeks. She was too
bappy, just sitting there beside Dick,
A moment later this happiness blew
away as before a mighty wind upon
which, as upon wings, rushed a new
joy so marvelons that she wept lest
it find her unworthy. Dick had asked
her to be his wife.
It was not until some three months
later that Hally remembered Aunt
Lulu. She and Dick were married.

A cloud passed over the sun for
Hally. She did not know anything
about Aunt Lulu save what her moth-
er had heen able to gather from those
brief infrequent letters; she had a
vague idea without knowing how she
had come by it, that Aunt Lulu was
big and coarse. Where would she put
a biz woman in an apartment which
was barely large enough for the two
of them as it was?
Dick laughed when Hally teld him
what they must expect.
“Well,” he said, “we'll just have to
make the best of it, dear. Give her
our room. Make her comfortable.”

Next day Hally and Dick found that
instead of entertaining Aunt Lulu,
she was determined that she should
entertain them. Theré was no doubt
she had money, plenty of it. And she
knew how to spend it,
Within a week she and Hally were
fast friends. Hally found great en-
joyment in Aunt Lulu’s society. Some-
times she seemed almost as young as
Hally was, and they laughed together
like two school girls, especially when
Hally presented the portrait of the
Aunt Lulu she had expected. |
“TI haven't any real folks of my own

Gradually Hally pieced out the story
of Aunt Lulu’s lonely life. Bereft, she
had married too young an old man
who had been kind to her, the only
friend she had. She had heen denied
everything—romance, love, happi- |
In her middle age she was set-

Capital Punishment the Result of Fear, Hate
and Lust in Human Heart
By REV. JOHN HAYNES HOLMES, Community Church, New York.
APITAL punishment is the result of fear and hate and lust with-
in the human heart and should be abolished, as some of the
world’s greatest minds have advocated for centuries. We must
banish capital punishment from society as we have banished in-
fanticide and chattel slavery, as we are banishing child labor and the
subjection of women, as some day we shall banish war.
Opponents of capital punishment include all the greatest and noblest
names from Confucius, Buddha and Jesus to Channing, Abraham Lin-
coln, Victor Hugo, and Leo Tolstoi. In the course of centuries of dis-
| cussion every plea against the practice has been vindicated and estab-
| lished. The evidence is all in, the arguments all heard, the case closed,
the judgment rendered. There remains now only the task of carrying
out the verdict of condemnation, and getting rid of capital punishment
forever,
The nine states which have the highest murder rate in this country
are all capital punishment states.
But capital punishment at bottom is not supported as a protection
against anything. Psychologically the death penalty is an instance of
revenge; sociologically it is the institution of blood sacrifice; ethically
it is the practice of retribution. In capital punishment we have a sur-
vival into modern times of the barbarism of primitive times.
Person Reaching the Age of Sixty Should Be

if such regions were granted independent statehood. It
is clear that the future United States will be dominantly urban. In
1920 there were 17 regions, each having a population of more than 500,-

It is obvious that some

It is probable that in the near future there will be heard a strong
plea for the organization of metropolitan regions as independent states.
Such an experiment would give adequate scope for development of a
public welfare system appropriate to urban communities and for the de-
velopment of a metropolitan system of jurisprudence, differing from the
now dominantly rural type.
