To daj Ladies That Ignore Age. Good Riddance. Deep Plowing Pays. ^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^ The labor government In Great Britain plans to build new homes for 2,500,000 persons, the build ing program to extend over 15 yeads. Conservatives in this coun try wonder why a rich nation like Great Britain put in a labor gov ernment. That building program is part of the answer. An expedition of the National Geographic society, traveling up the Yellow river in China, on a raft made of 72 inflated Yak skins, ex plored the territory of the To Guns, or "earth men,” strange Chinaman, with curly yellow hair. One marvelous thing is discov ered by the explorers. Women among the “To Guns” pay no at tention whatever to age. and keep no track of it. And the age of the women seems to make no dif ference to the men. Women un married wear their hair in 20 to 30 thick braids, artificially thick ened. W'hen they marry they cut them off. But age is ignored. The "To Gun” ladies are only a little ahead of their time. The day is coming when all woipen will ignore age, instead of letting age obliterate them. Congress will adjourn, by agree ing with President Coolidge. in June 7. Then will begin the real l“* business of politics—-getting elected again. It hasn’t been a pleasant session of congress, with its Teapot Dome, its selling and stealing of the naval oil reserves and its other features, and you will be glad to *ee the session die. In Baltimore, a farmer named Meyerly is said to he plowing up a good wheat field, with a sub-soil plow, having been told there is gold in his land. He won’t find gold, but if he plow's deeply . enough, and plows his wheat under, he will im prove his soil and increase his farm's value. In the second part of "Faust” Goethe tells of the farmer plowing deep because under the emperor’s law ho was allowed to keep all buried treasure “turned over by the plow.” That was probably an ingenious scheme to make the farmer plow deeper, make his soil richer, and thus be able to pay 1 heavier taxes. Tlyre is too much thin scratching of the earth in this country. It pays to understand mechanics, and the art of good conscientious machine building. The Dodge Brothers, typical American citizens, devoted their youth to studying mechanical con struction. They hadn’t $1,000 to begin on, but they had the good fundamental ideas. Both, unfortunately, are dead, the estate of one, Horace Dodge, amounts to more than $39, • 000,000, all made in a few years and all made by good honest work. All Americans outside of the in sane asylum are glad to see such big fortunes as that, made by giving value. Two question that interest politicians are these: Can the democrats be persuaded to give up the rule that compels a man to get two-thirds of all the delegates before he can be nomi nated ? And will the democrats put in their national platform a plan de nouncing the Ku Klux Klan, and thus outlawing many southern states on whom the democrats must depend to win? It is a delicate question and may he solved by some vague generaliza tion concerning all secret societies. Those who want the klan politi cally outlawed declare that it boasts of “an all-seeing eye’’ and estab lishes espionagp among neighbors, causing them to watch and denounce each other, creating bad feeling. If that’s so, it isn’t new. In Spain, where so many thousands were burned alive, being previously tortured, for religious reasons, there was a very highly organized system of spying, under which sometimes brothers and sisters, fathers and sons, denounced each other and sent each other to the torture, for fear of being themselves denounced. It is not a pretty custom and *t would not he pleasant to believe that the spirit ,of Torquemada still lives. Methodists in * convention at Springfield were much excited yes terday because somebody said the Methodist church was communistic. The church is not communistic, but the anger was overdone, for after all, it was not Leon Trotzky, but the founder of Christianity that originally told the rich young man to take what he had and give it to the poor.

Adele Garrison “My Husband's I.ove” l ---*\ Dicky'* face and that of Bella Dur kee mirrored mild astonishment at Edith's request to sea me alone for a minute or two before she should go upstairs to Mrs. Durkee's room. Katherine nodded a quick, under standing approval, for she had shared our low-toned conversation when Edith had commented upon the lines in her sister's face, and she knew that the newcomer wished to question me as to my special knowl edge concerning her idolised sister's happiness. "Edie!" Bella's voice was suddenly tragic. "I haven’t even given you a cup of tea!” Her voice held all the horror of the gently-bred south ern woman whose first impulse is to feed a guest, "Afterwards, dear,' Edith an swered decidedly, "I lunched at the station in my wait for a I«ong Island train, and T am neither hungry nor thirsty. But after I have seen your mother-in-law I'll take a cup of tea with you. You know my weakness." Heassured, Beila, with Dicky, fol lowed Katherine out of the room, and Edith Fairfax turned to me tensely. “Now what la thla about 1-ella?" she demanded. "There’s somctJling radically wrong, and I know? It, else my little sister wouldn’t look like tjiat. Why, there are lines in her face that aren't in yours or mine"’ "That is because we have had to face realties," I replied steadily, al though It took more of an effort than I had expected to talk unemo tionally to this girl whose unrequited love for my husband lay always in the consciousness of both of u*. “Always Sheltered.” I felt a bitterly whimsical Impulse to tell her that It was no fault of herg my face did not hbld etched lines of mental suffering. But, of course, I repressed it, for if all the smothered words of the world for .lust one minute's time could he re leased, what, a eatacylsm they would make of life. Instead, I went on to speak of Bella; "She aljvaya has been aheltered,” I Said, /first by you, and then by her husband. I don't suppose she ever had a really unhappy moment until Rita Brown tried to under min* hef confidence in Alf Just be fore her wedding. Remember?” i “I remember,” Edith returned, her vole* low but deadly with anger. "You don't mean that Rita—" "No. no!" I answered emphatically. "I haven't since seen Tllta Brown, nor has Bella. She la In Paris. I be lieve." "Then who Is th* woman?" Edith said impatiently. "For, of course, It'S that. Alf simply couldn't he unkind to any one, and I^lla'a too good a sport to let anything, save some other woman, matter. I mean, if Alf were drinking or gambling, or neglecting hla work, she'# he worried, of course, but not heart broken, the way she appears now." T opened my eye* aid* at thin calm assumption that a wife would put a slight offered to her love so much higher In enormity than things that would In time destroy the physical, mentaj and moral caliber of her hus band. That it ia an ugly truth, In ■ many rases, l know, but it la not I generally spoken aloud, and I had j hard work to conceal my astonish ment at Edith's frankness. "There is a woman who has caused Leila much unhappiness," I said, "but Alf Isn't In love with her, although—" "TeO me everypthing about it,” Edith interrupted ruthlessly. ■•Sit down,” I said quietly. "It's nulls a long story.” The Truth 1 nsuppressed. She looked at me oddly for a sec ond, then sank Into the chair I in dicated. I pulled another chair to face her, and then I outlined the tale of Rees Dean's machinations. I told Edith her pose of friendly, help ful comrade to the whole family, which had so taken Alf in. and the petty malicious persecution to which she had subjected Leila. Then I retailed Dr. Braithwait^'s ultimatum to Alfred, and the young husband’s avoidance of Bess Dean, and avoid ance which that aatuta young woman was doing everything in h*r power to nullify. But why?" Edith asked finally. “Is she In love with Alfred?” "Do you think that would excuse her pursuit of him?” The word "fame from my lips al most without my volition. There was no undue stress upon them, but I saw Edith Fairfax wince as If she had been struck a physical blow. "Of course not,” she answered hastily. "But—” ',"1 do not believe she cares any thing at all for him,” I hurried on, trying to preserve a matter-of-fact manner. ".She's simply gratifying her vanity, which is distorted beyond all proportion.” Leila's sister sprang to her feet and clenched her pretty hands Into fists. "The beast” she said. "To hurt another woman Ilk# that.” For the second tlma in our short Interview, words which 1 would have given much to have suppressed sprang to my lips: "Yes, the girl who causes a rift between husband and wife hasn't much sportsmanship In her make up.” -— Program For Mar IS.
