NEZ CONKLIN sat in the deep chair trying to embroider a pink rosebud on a bit of sheer lawn which was intended for her daugh- ter Beverley’'s new baby. But her hands were so unsteady that she could scarcely hold the needle. Inez was greatly agitated. Her plump cheeks glowed, her dark eyes sparkled, her gray hair was not so neat as usual. And at four o'clock in the afternoon she had not yet changed from her cot- ton house dress to the dark silk she always wore. The most wonderful thing in the world had happened. After twenty- six years of quiet wedded life, with stern economy practiced in every de- partment of her tiny household, Inez suddenly found herself in command of money. Not just money—money. It had come about in the most unex- pected way. The small business at which Lewis had worked so long and so hard against such discouraging odds had suddenly opened up Into aston- ishing possibilities. It had been of so much use in a merger that Lewis had been offered a big sum for it. He had, of course, sold out, for he was fifty-four years old and a bit tired. Lewis had never had a vacation in all the years he had been struggling and planning and he was going to have one now—a long vacation full of rest and sight-seeing and quiet luxuries. Like Lewis, Inez had never had a vacation. She had been on her job twenty-four hours every day, raising babies, keeping house, mingling with the neighbors, sewing, cooking, scrub- bing, carrying on a thousand activi- ties. But now she was going to rest, see something of the world and have a few of the things she had always yearned for. Just that morning they had decided to go abroad—to Paris. Next day Inez went over to take the finished dress of the pink rosebuds to Beverley. “It’s settled. We are going to Paris,” she said. “Now, mom,” Beverley said, “there's Just one thing I want you to do. I want you to get a real nice dress in Paris—you've never had a real nice dress in your whole life. Remember, you are a good-looking woman yet, mom. This is your wedding trip, the one you never had. Get you a Paris dress, something different from what you've ever had or seen here at home. A dress of the right kind, mom, will do more for you than you can imagine. And don’t haggle. Pay a stiff price if you have to.” Inez looked at her daughter's glow- ing, earnest face. Her dark eyes filled with tears. Funny how Beverley had hit the nail on the head. Paris meant dresses to Inez. Middle-aged as she was, she would have been ashamed to admit it, but she did want a dress out of one of those Paris shops. The Conklins had a wonderful time abroad. But when it was over Inez was glad to be on her way back home, for they had been away three months. The morning after they reached home Beverley rushed over, trundling the baby, Lewis William, in his rub- ber-tired carriage. For an hour Inez could do nothing but feast her eyes on her first grandchild. Then she began to bring forth the gifts she had bought for her children and friends. Beverley exclaimed over the wisdom and love that evidently gov- erned their selection. “And now, mom,” Beverley said when there came a lull in the fascin- ating review, “I want to see what you got for yourself.” choked odode odode deododod beodeod ode dodo Se ee Re ee de Re ede dh Rosi OR Oo J “eeererrer err rrr rere “Well, I had to have a pair of shoes,” Inez said. “And I got me a small hat. And a few underthings. And some stockings—" “The dress, mom! the dress?” “Bev,” Inez said, looking flushed and guilty, “you will think I'm silly, But, you know, I just made up my mind that I'd have something so dif- ferent that everybody'd know it came direct from Paris. I didn't care whether it was so awful becoming, I wanted it—different.” “I understand,” said Beverley. Inez went to her closet and took a dress off the hook. When Beverley saw it she gave a start and gasp. “I told you it would be different,” said Inez. It was different. No mistake about that. It was slinky and sparkly in places. Green! Such a green! Bev- erley bit her lip. Inez looked at her wistfully. Didn't you get “It's different, anyway,” she re- peated. “Yes.” Beverley put her arm about her mother. She also made a repeti- tion of her words—*I understand.” Beverley decided to make a party for her returned travelers. Inez was delighted. Thrill upon thrill. Life was interesting. But after the party she and Lewis were going to settle down again, Lewis was going to take a job—no use of rusting out with idle- ness. And she was going to get busy fixing up her home. It needed a thorough cleaning. They had played long eno? gh, Inez was going to wear her new ss to the party. When folks saw it THE PATTON COURIER they might be a bit startled, but they certainly would know where it came from without being told. Take Miss Todd for instance. That dress would make her blink. Inez giggled girlishly at the thought of making Miss Todd blink, . That morning she went marketing as usual with her little green basket on her arm, Oh, but it was good to be walking the old streets again! The dear shop windows! had perked up some in her absence, This window of Werner's store now— she stopped to peep in. Suddenly Inez turned white, turned red, if anybody was watching her, she went into the little shop. That evening she came to the party wearing a simple black crepe that had been one of her standbys on her trip. Everybody said she looked fine. She did. Beverley took her aside. She Then “Mom! I thought you were going to wear your Paris dress. What in the world made you change your mind?” Inez fingered the beads on her daughter's white neck. almost shy. - “The joke is on me, Bev,” she said. “I—I went into Werner's this morn- ing and they had a dress—" “Not—" breathed Beverley.

When the mother kiwi lays an egg or two she is through. The male kiwi must sit on the egg or eggs and hatch them. And such eggs! Naturalists marvel that the kiwi, a bird the size of a hen, can lay an egg eight inches long and three inches wide; one-quarter as much as the bird her- self.

NE of the popular indoor sports in America is the criticism of our schori system. Most of the disparaging criticism is based on inadequate information, is not at all constructive, and altogether misses the point. One kind of attack especially irritates us, when a state university is accused of delving into politics. This is due to a confusion of terms, for politics in this sense is usually taken to mean the manipulation of gov- ernment for the gain of institutions. Universities should not concern themselves with the appointment of regents or with any candidacy for office. This includes the faculty, administrative board and the alumni. Our task at the state university is to work with the government which the people give us. It is my business to work with the regents. But when politics is defined as the science and practice of govern- ment, with this meaning the university will always be in politics. 1t must perform the functions for which it was brought into being, and find new ways of being useful. The primary function of any school is the instruction of our youth, yet a school must not only diffuse, but also increase knowledge. The service a state university should offer is freely at the disposal of the state. This free offering of service is not confined to the teaching of the youth of the land, but should make the state university important in the life of the state as a department of the government.

New Hampshire and Vermont have capital pun- ishment and Maine does not. Yet there are twice as many homicides in Maine as in either of the other two. The average criminal receives better treatment in prison than he does when he is free. He has a doctor to treat his ills, concerts, motion pictures and radios. The only thing he lacks is the chance to practice his vices, under our system of punishment.

Why should not the those it governs? : WRONG IDEA ABOUT SCIENCE By REV. DR. H/ KRY EMERSON FOSDICK, New York (Baptist). The mystery of life increases with each of man’s conquests in science. The popular idea that science clears up mysteries so that the more science we have the less mystery is left is a strange inversion of fact. Whenever the mystery of the universe has at all been cleared up, the truth has proved more marvelous than men ever dreamed. The unknown world has always turned out to be full, not of ghosts and hobgoblins, but of marvels, We cannot think that the spiritual experience of man is a solitary exception. This universe is more spiritually significant than we have ever dared dream. To be sure, our thoughts of God are inadequate, but the reason is that the truth lies beyond our imagination. In the meanwhile, | for all the mystery that surrounds us, we have light enough to live by, to live decently with ourselves, in a kindly way with our neighbors, and courageously in our troubles. We have light enough to be at least a little radiant within, and with- out, to help build here a more decent social order for personality to flour- ish in. Let us quit lamenting the mystery; there is sufficient light to walk by. WRONG JUDICIAL PROCEDURE By GEORGE W. WICKERSHAM, Chairman Law Enforcement Commission. I am one of those who believe that our entire method of dealing with offenders is fundamentally wrong, and that the present day practice of endeavoring to prevent crime by augmented penalties is based upon fallacy which has time and again been demonstrated. I would not have the construction of new, fairly decent and ade- quate prisons wait upon the reformation of the penal laws, and other holocausts such as that of Columbus be added to the many manifesta- tions of improper conditions which have been occurring in many parts of the country while men dispute in legislatures and public meetings and in the press the most sound and sane methods of dedling with crime. The American Law institute’s proposed model code of criminal pro- cedure provides for a real advance and the removal of many abuses, and represents a distinct contribution to the improvement of law enforcement. Much of the blame for the unsatisfactory conditions of our law and judicial procedure justly is visited upon the bar . . which as an organized entity in the United States today is a somewhat mythical quantity.
