The Call of the Wild
"Nurse, nurse 1"
Hear that pleading note
Squeezed from some parched throat,
Uttered in the still of night
When the sound grips you tight.
"Nurse I nurse 1"
Surely his lungs will burst;
Perhaps he is growing worse
Or maybe the man is dying;
Will he never stop that crying?
Of "Oh! Nurse, nurse."
Disturbed from a sweet dream,
You rush upon the scene
Expecting to find in the pale light
A man holding his life by main might.
A man with face pinched and drawn,
The spark of life almost gone;
One like a battery burning away,
Once strong, but going day by day.
You find a man with smiling face.
Nor a bit of pain can you trace
In soothing voice asks your dying
man ' '
And he grips you with a steady hand.
"Norse, would you be so kind,
That is if you don't mind"
And he pauses to think
"Nurse, would you get me a drink:"
Oh! Nurse I nurse!

A Plea for Sanity and Use of Common Sense in Meas
uring Our Suitable Individual . Requirements.
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
"So many white shoes!"! see them
everywhere. Tomorrow, I suppose I
shall not notice them, but tonight my
eye keeps finding them," cried the
Fren :hman who has just come to
America after two years in the
trenches. "Can these women all af
ford white shoes? Do none of them
have to cross the muddy streets?
Have they all limousines or taxicabs
to ride in?
"And I see nothing but the tor
toise rimmed spectacle's on the men.
Have they all bad eyes or do all of
them drive cars and come into res
taurants with their automobile gog
gles on and wear glasses when they
walk to protect them from the glare
of your bright streets?" asked, the
Englishman who, after being wound
ed "somewhere in France," has come
to our country to recuperate.
And it suddenly occurred to me
that the white shoes and the great
owlish horn-rimmed spectacles are a
sign and portent of the way we all
imitate each other and slavishly ac
cept the fads introduced by a, few
leaders with more originality than
good taste!
Most of us cannot afford white
shoes; most of us do not need horn
rimmed spectacles. But we see them
on other people, and on more and
more "other people;" we rather like
them and so we proceed to get them,
too.
An Individual Measure.
What we need is an individual
standard of measurement some
knowledge of our own requirements,
some idea of what is becoming to us
and suitable for us. Suppose a .shop
decided to do away with its meas
ured off yardsticks and took the time
honored distance from the tip of the
middle' finger of an outstretched
arm to the tip of a nose as the
standard of measurement, what a rush
there would be for the tall, thin
clerks! Who, in truth, would be sat
isfied to trust that slipshod method
which might give you .37 inches of
braid when you only needed 34,' and
might equally well give you 35 inches
of lace when you could just barely
make yard do? Nobody would pat
ronize that shop. We all want our
yard measured off exactly, and our
pounds weighed out precisely.
But all too many of us are satisfied to
measure ourselves, our needs, our
purchases rather casually and inci
dentally. It won't do I
Every one of us must definitely
measure himself, his equipment for
life, the opportunity of his position,
his ambition to rise above that posi
tion, his longings and desires and all
the debits and credits of his existence.
That standard must be rigid when
applied to yourself and rather elastic
when used on other people who have
standards of their own not measured
off in just the same spaces as yours.
Holding yourself strictly to ac
count for everything you do does not
make you cruelly exacting with oth
ers. You know how hard it is to
measure up to your own demands and
ideals and consequently you develop
a good-humored tolerance of other
folks and their difficulties. At least
you develop his tolerance or you be
come intolerable! s
A Plea for Sanity.
A sane standard of measurement
will tell the girl who earns $12 a
week and to whom street care fare is
as much of a luxury as a taxicab is
to the hundred-dollar-a-week woman,
that white glazed kid boots don't fit
into her scheme of things. Extrava
gance results from a lack of a stand
ard of measurement which belongs to
you and applies to you and isn't just
a slavish and stupid acceptance of
somebody's else's standards.
When the short, stout woman in
sists on the checks and plaids which
are becoming to her tall, slender sis
ter, or the dark-eyed, strong-featured
girl purchases the rakish little turban
which looks rfell on her dainty-faced
uWftiiiis

Standard
chum, either of them is likely t
"make a guy of herself."
Neither need be guilty of bad taste
if she rule off her yardstick of con
duct something like this: "Is it be
coming to me? Is it suitable for my
occupation and position in life? Can
I afford it? Do I really want it, or
am I. just blindly-following somebody
else's lead?"
The most perfect, general, stand
ard measurement there is for any
situation or . step or desire or
urchase in all of life is this; Will :
get any durable satisfaction out of it
or will it just give me a moment, of
pleasure? - "
Pleasures and occupations and
ideals and desires and efforts must
measure up to what means real and
lasting satisfaction and growth in
your life. Otherwise they do not be-
long to you. . , - '
Without a standard of measurement
you are an insignificant member of a
mob. With one you are a sane indi
vidual who has a sense of values, a
sense of direction, and, who has,
chance to amount to something.
