Sitting Pretty.
Yes, We Have Snobs.
100,000 Men Discharged.
A Lady Vice President?
^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^
Presently Mr. Coolidge’s conven
tion will tell us who is to be the
candidate for vice president. No
news until then. The platform will
be an elaborate amplification of the
American sentence: “We are sit
ting pretty.”
Republicans count on democrats,
their wet-and-dry, klan-or-no-klan
troubles, to make the certainty of
republican victory doubly certain.
That’g their attitude.
You will get another view from
New York soon. That will be a
real convention—fur flying.
Have we Anglomaniac snobs in
the United States? Yes, we have.
A Misa Green of New York mar
ries Prince Viggo Christian Adolph
Georg, son of Prince Valdemar of
Denmark. City editors, who know
exactly what the public wants, pay
little attention to the wedding. If
it had been an English duke, even
of second class, the event would
have been advertised 10 times as
much in our pure democracy.
Workingmen should note that In
one state alone, New York, 100,000
men have been discharged from
their work within a few weeks.
This bad sign, only temporary,
it is to be hoped, demands
thought.
Leaders that advise workmen for
the workman’s good will not en
courage too many strikes at this
moment. There might be too many
employers willing to lay off men.
Mrs. Genevieve Allen of San
Francisco suggests that some wo
man be nominated for vice presi
dent. It isn’t necessary to say
whgt old politicians think of that.
Nevertheless, young politicians will
live to see things in politics more
surprising.
The time hasn't come yet, how
ever, for, strangely enough, at this
bobent more women than men
would be shocked at the idea of a
woman on the presidential ticket.
Concerning the alleged new cure
for cancer, remember that Dr.
Glover, the discoverer, guarantees
nothing, and regrets publication
given prematurely to hia work.
There is, unfortunately, no ground
for giving too great comfort or as
surance to unfortunate cancer vic
tims.
Their best hope is in the state
ment by the great surgeon, Mayo,
that science is “getting close to a
cure, and even now can cure 80 per
cent of all cases if taken in time.”

face sore or persistent soreness,
however trifling.

She rolled up her sleeves exposing

The Final Plans Madge Made Before
Leaving With Mamie.
Katherine made no comment upon
the suitcases In the tonneau, seem
ingly so absurd an adjunct of our trip
from the farm to meet her at
Patchogue.
Ordinarily, I knew her sense of the
ludicrous, always highly developed,
would have prompted some mirthful
query to me, but from my telephone
message she knew that my need for
her was drastic, and her quick,
shrewd look at the girl, Mamie, be
side me, told me that she also realized
where my problem lay. There
would be no Jesting nor any other
remark besides the commonplace
from Katherine's lips while Mamie
was within hearing.
She devoted herself wholly to the
children on the trip home, and they
gabbled happily to her, while I drove
i he children in the car. And all the
time Mamie sat beside me, her sullen
hostility so plain that I fancied I
could feel it as I might a blast of
cold air.
When I turned in at the gate I
spoke to Mamie for the first time:
“Go up on the veranda, to that
porch chair, and stay there until I
come,” I directed, and as she obeyed
me X turned to the tonneau where
Junior, with his rams around Kath
erine's neck, wag almost choking her
in the exuberance of his ’joy at hav
ing her back again.
Junior Thinks Swiftly.
Katherine’s face wag no less radt
aqt, although in her eyes I fancied
there lay the shadow which I had
surprised In it many times, and the
cause of which 1 Inadvertently had
discovered one night when we were
taking turns In watching over Jun
ior In an attack of the croup. Never
face and voice when thinking I slept
she bent over Junior, and whispered:
"Oh! God! My empty arms!"
"I'm afraid I shall have to inter
rupt this ‘petting party.’ ” I said.
Marion laughed gleefully at the banal
jest, and Katherine loosened Junior’s
arms reluctantly. My little lad looked
up at me with dismay In his eyes.
"Auntie Katherine not going
away?” he demanded.
“No, sweetheart,” I soothed. "She's
going to stay with you and take care
of you for a while."
Remembrance of similar occasions
patently came back to my small son,
and his lower lip drooped patheti
cally.
“Then you going away?” he asked
tremulously.
I countered with a question which
I thought sure proof against tears.
"Don't you want me to get you a
velocipede? How can I do that un
ites I go to New York and find
one?"
His reply was prompt:
"Mr. Smlf has nice onao in his
store.”
"But not as fine as In New York,”
I countered, and Marlon with a
thoughtfulness beyond her years
came to my aid effectively.
"Oh. Junior!" she exclaimed. “Liet’a
go and ask Katie If we may have a
picnic In our playroom* for Auntie
Katherine after awhile!"
“I Often Wonder—"
The ruse succeeded perfectly.
With a delightful gurgle, and with
out -a backward glance, my Httl# lad
grasped Marlon's outstretched hand
and ran Into the house with her.
Katherine looked after them thought
fully.
"What an exceptional child Marlon
Is!" she ssld. “I often wonder—”
She didn't finish the sentence,
breaking It off short, but I knew
what wss In her mind. She thought
that Marlon was too grown up for
her years and that she should have
more companions of her own age.

Then with a glance at Mamie to

there were parts of the story I did

"Nothing doing. I'll stand trial.”
Prosecutor John Teager and De
fender John Baldwin stood with him
before the Judge while the Information

given up. She stood beside him. one
arm around his waist. Tears fell from

Frank, plead guilty. It's the only
thing for you. You'll be out In s
few years.”
Reading of the complaint was fin

“To this charge what do you plead,
guilty or not guilty?” asked the Judge.
“Guilty,” said Sanders in a low
voice. His sister dropped into a chair.
The Judge will pass sentence Friday.
Ten years to life is the penalty. San
