*10- SOCIAL EVENTS
A WOMAN’S SHORT COMINGS
She laughed softly as if she
sighed »
She has counted six and over,
Of a purse well filled and a heart
well tried—
Oh, each a worry lover.
They “give her time” for her
soul must slip
Where the world has set the
grooving;
She will lie to none with her fair
bred lip
But love seek truer loving.
She * trembles her fan in a sweet
V
ness dumb,
As her thoughts were beyond
recalling,
IVith a glance for one, and a
glance for some
From her eyelids rising and
' Speaks falling words
common with a
blushful air;
■ Hears bold words, unprovoking;
But her silence sgys—what she
never Will swear—
And love seeks better loving.
’ •
Go lady, lean to the night guitar,
And drop a smile on the bringer;
Then smile as sweetly when he is
far,.
At the voice of the indoor sing
er;
Bask tenderly beneath tender
eyes;
Glance lightly on their remov
ing;
£ And join new vows to old per
■ jurees—
But dare not call it loving.
Unless you can think when the
song Js done,
No other is soft in the rythm;
Unless you can feel, when left by
Sip, one,
That all men else go w'ith him;
nless you can know, when un
praised by his breath,
That your beauty itself wants
proving;
Unless you can swear—“for life
for death”— ,
m Oh, fear to call it loving.
*■
Unless you can muse in a crowd
i all day,
On the absent face that fixed
/
you;
Unless you can love, as the angels
^ may,
With the breath of heaven be
twixt you;
Unless you can dream that his
faith 1 1 fast
^ Through behooving and unbe
hooving;
nless you can die when the
dream is past—
Oh, never call it loving.
—Elizabeth Barret Browning.

GRIFFIN DAILY NEWS
WITH WOMEN i
OF TODAY
If you can't have childrer of
your own, why not “mother” some
f the world’s homeless little ones?
Miss Janet McKay, a former Belle
vue Hospital, N. Y., nurse, found
plenty to mother when she went
to Alexandropol, Armenia, with
the Near East Relief. Five thou
sand tiny tots at the orphan city
at that place, all under six years
they \ ■
of age, are in her care and
■
cannot be persuaded that Miss 1
McKay is not their real mother.
Before Miss McKay and the I
other American nurses took hold
of the orphanage the death rate
was about fifty a day. Now it is .
less than one every few months.
Mrs. Gordon Holmes is the only
woman stockbroker in London, and
she has a man for a partner.
“I am a feminist,” she said re
cently, “but I know that I need a
man as partner in the stockbrok
ing business. . As every woman
has some masculine ip her and
every man has some feminine in
him, so every business has a little
of both, I fancy. There are details
of a stockbroker’s office which are
best served by a woman’s judg
ment—or call it intuition if you
like. But there are others which
must be handled by the masculine
mind. M
Miss Hermina Thornes, of San
Juan, Porto Rico, is the first wom
an to argue a case before 1 the
United States Appellate Court.
Porto Rico is in the Boston Circuit f
and all cases appealed from the
District Court in Porto Rico are
heard in Boston. Miss Tormes ap
peared as counsel for a San Juan
woman in a will case.
A number of Berlin artists,
modistes and milliners were asked
recently, “At what age are women
most beautiful?” The almost
unanimous answer was between 30
and 35.
( Household Hints
V_/
So many of us have white
enamel kitchen tables and we
avoid using the meat grinder
merely through having no place to
attach it. Put a small wad of
paper between the grinder and the
table and tighten the screws on
the paper instead of the slippery
table. You will find it secure and
safe.
When the youngster is begin
ning to use all the silver and
dishes that the rest of the family
use, it is time to make corrections
in the method of using. Then the
child knows no other table man
ners than the right kind and fu
ture'training will be unnecessary.
When cake baking, don’t think
a larger lump of sugar will make
the cake better. Too much su
gar will absolutely spoil a cake
and many of the best cakes you
have eaten have no butter at all
irt them.
If you don’t want to pay the
price of absolutely fresh and
whole fruits for preserving pur
poses, don’t do them up at all.
You will only waste the difference
in money by a few jars “going
bad” and none of your fruit will
-be as good as it should be.
A small amount of gasoline in
the water when scrubbing floors
will do away with grease spots.
When roasting a piece of meat,
it should be cooked quickly at
first to sear the outside enough to
hold in the juices. Then the tem-

First Man She Ever Loved Beat
Her, So Now She Wants $100,000
’
New York, Nov. 17.—“He was
the first man I ever seriously
loved, but he beat me, caused me
terrible pain and during the days
I suffered so much he did not
make a single attempt to find out
how I •»
was.
That, briefly, is the reason Miss
Florence Lee, member of the
Lieberman family, Trenton brew
ers, and formerly an actress under
the management of Belasco, is su
ing Hugh C. Fox, millionaire su
gar man, for $100,000.
Fox, however, has gone to
Cuba, according to Miss Lee,
order to avoid service in the
suit.
Cowardly.
Seated in her suite at the Great
Northern Hotel here, Miss Lee
said, “It is awfully cowardly of
him to run away at this time. He
was the first man I seriously lov
ed. The difference in our ages—
he is over 50, older than my
father, —did not mean more to
me than the fact that we happen
ed to live in different places.

the things I did willingly for him

after he gave me the beating.
