WE HAVE
GOOD IDOLS
The Ame.rirar* nation seems to l>e under
the necessity of finding an idol every so
ten and putting him up on a high pedestal.
The idol is generally a young man. an id the
ration—which usually admires him as nine h
for his modesty as for anything—does its Icy*
el best to destroy his modesty a nd give, him
a badly head. y' /
very swo rn
As it happens, we’ve hcem extremely for
tunate in our choice o f r/ToIs lately, hirst there
was Lindbergh, who' stood up under the ar
deal as well ns,tiny young man possibly cou jfj
have. Now it seems to be Hobby Jones; a nc j
he. toe*, seems to be just the sort of stuff that
the; nation needs in a popular figure.
Really, we owe these two -young men a
good deal. 1 hey h ive given us. and especial
ly our youngsters, very worthy targets for
hero worship. They have, too, set a pretty
high standard for luture national idols to
live up to.

THE REPORTER'S
RESPONSIBILITY
' The ’name of Alfred l.ingle probably wi
exist in public memory hi a long time. Not
because he was murdered by a C hicago gang
ster—the list of men who share that distinc
tion is too long for memory —but because he
was unfaithful to his trust as a newspaper re
porter.'
The reporter occupies a peculiar position.
He works bord, he is occasionally poorly paid,
and he is now and then thrust up against
temptations against his integrity; and thru
it all there rests on nim a binding, if unwrit
ten, obligation —to serve the public. although
he is not a public servant,' by telling in the
ti- exact truth far lies within his
as as power,
about what -is going <>n in the world.
It is a tribute to the class of men who work
for American newspapers that so very, very
few of them are r faithless to this trust Linglc
was one of the exceptions. He will he re
m'"inhered as a man who was so ill advised
as to take money from the underworld that
he was hired to report.

The g. a. r. and
THE LEGION
Illinois G A. IL, veterans held a state en
campment at Rock Island the other day
and only 76 registered delegates attended.
Items of this sort are getting common—
all too common—but they never fail to stir
our interest. There was a time when a state
encampment of the G. A. FL, meant big
crowds, long parades, tumultous conventions,
lots of excitement, But now, 76 bearded
old men are all that can attend!
You can get the contrast best, perhaps, by
contrasting this G. A. R., convention with
the ordinary American Legion gathering. As
fhe Legionnaira are now. so the War Be
tween the States veterans were a generation
ago; and as the War Between the States men
are today, so these robust, energetic young
Legionnaires will be a generation hence.

CHILDREN DO NOT FORGET
/> ( v 't/utz.
If you expect your child, or any othei
c bild, to have confidence in you, you d better
be careful either to keep all promises, or to
explain why a promise cannot be kept.
I am supposing 1 was an average c hild will i
averai’c memory; ana I want to te you
s niellnnjj, in proof of my assertion that chi I
dren do not forget promises. I wo Wf
ago. in a North Alabamn tptvn where ! lived
when ( l was a small boy, I passer a corner
where ,i drugstore once stood. 1 verythiri);
is , hanged there, now; but when I passer
(hat corner the first thing I thought of v\ a s
the man who made me a promise, when I
was a small boy, and not on ly broke the
promise, but also nyist broke my heart. r<>
he veiy honest about it, I have found it hard
lo forgive that man and have any respect for
uin.
I lore is what__happened and bow it hap
pened. It was two' weeks before ( hristmas.
I was much interested in my first sweetheart.
I he man wh<i kept the drugstore had just got
in a lot of fancy articles which were display
ed in-a—show-window. One afternoon, on my
way home Irani school, I stopped at the win
dow to look at the pretty , things in it and
wish I had enough money to get my little
sweethear a present. •I he merchant, for
j whom I i 1.1 d often brought huckets of water
from the nearby spring. came to the door of

the store and saw mr loo king, at
the things in the window. *

I thanked him while tears of gratitude pop

I must have spent hours before that win ^

t decide what I wanted- Finally I induced
„ my
little sweetheart to stop at the window' and
look in with me. When I asked her what

The night before the' bay before Christ

hands on that 50c bottle of perfume, a nd 1
was trying to imagine how delighted my little
sweetheart would be with the present, I
wondered if my rival would give her any
thing half so pretty.
W hen I went for the present, the mer

also accused me of trying to get something
for nothing. He is dead, now, and I hope he
is net so mise: -as he made me.

CHAPTER XTV
Judy was there a quarter oi an
hour belore the time She had .i
purpose, and. in her dramatic way.
she dressed for it. She put cn
her oldest clothes, She paid no
attention to her face, which was
as usual, violently made up, like a
caricature.
She was wrought up to such a
pitch of excitement that when ?ht
was shown into Gideon s ereat sa
lon she did not recognize it as per
haps the most beautiful room in
New York
It did tlic milli inaiff credit tt> ,t
he showed not the slightest Sur
prise at her appearance. He asked
her to sit down and she did so.
Oil an old English day bed. with
cushion of dull gold She was
pulling off her gloves and then put
ting them on again. She was fright
fully nervous as she looked into his
pale, heavy face
“I wanted to see you first, Mr.
Gideon." she said hurriedly •T am
willing to take this game up but
only if. you'll let me keep myself
while I’m learning to dance I c \r.
manage that "all right I can t live
on you. I expect, if this
reallv thinks T am good, he'll hr
willing to wait for his fees until lir
ready; so ttint wouldnt eo«t any
thing; I can t, take anything from
you-while I'm learning, I'd rather
give the idea up altogether"
• Why. of course. Mips Judy " Gi
deon answered suavely “I've been
thinking that over myself T quite
understand You are a most hid
per del ;J voimi lady: but if you go
on with your work, wont von be
too tired?"
"Lord, no! 1 ean do anything. I'm
as strong as a horse.'
“As to Guarvenius. Em sure hz'll
jump at you He is an artist, and
wouid not think of money, anyhow
Bplieie me, I admire your indepen
dence Leave me out of it alto
gether. Fix it up with G’.arvenius
yourself; but allov me the privilege
chon you are reads' of helping vo u
tn whatever way I ear, "
Judy was delighted She wa -• be
ginning to warm to the idea There
wa« adventure In tt. This man
jvho knew so much oi the world
was ready to allow her to succeed
on her own merits. He did rot
want to lay her under any obltsa -
‘ions. How ridiculous Bastten haa
icen' It wag a perfectly genuine
business proposition He knew she
vns a dancer, and she anew it, kr,
Guarvenius arrived
He was a small, dapper man. with
a delicate, artistic face, slightly
feminine and yet strong He luid

high-bridged nose, deep-set lumi

ful mouth, spoiled by a set of dis
colored teeth iirrminted for, no,
doubt, by the never-abseni clftfet.
Judy wa s never at a loss with
any man, and the two got on fa
mously. Guarvenius spoke perfect
English In a voire with a sad. sym
pathetic cadence.
The lunch wa sserved in a small
severe, dark-paneled room It was
very frugal There were more
flowers on the table than there was

drink It wtt a strictly busm^s

and there were flowers everywhere.

scented flowers that sent fumes up
Into Judy’s brain such as no wine
could ever do
"Now. Miss Judy. you
dance." said Gideon, when they had
finished coffee “I will show you
the other room—they will have it
ready. A friend is coming to play.
What would you like him to pipy?”
He led Judy into another great
room. Vith three tall windows over
looking a garden. It was quite
bare, with a polished floor. At one
end was a raised platform with a
full-sized grand piano on it. There
was no other furniture. The walls
were pale yellow, hung with tapes
tries.
Judy looked round her. She felt
suddenly as if she had never danc
ed in her life, It was a huddle tit
tie bundle of misery that look 'd up
at Gideon.
“Oh!" she breathed. Please leave
me here for a little while alone,
before anybody comes!”
When Gideon had gone out. ac c _
ceding sympathetically to her re
quest, Judy stood by one of the raft
windows. She took her coat off.
hut kept her hat on. She looked oui
on the garden below, but she did
not see it. Somehow she seemed
to see a picture of a place among
gray-green mountains, which die
felt sure must be Alan fiteyne's lit
tle house in Maine. There were
flr trees and there iyas rushing wa
ter. and tt was all very bleak and
wild A pale sun was spiring thiu
a mist. Looking back into the
thp yellow-washed walls, hung wi>/n
grayish-green tapestries made her
think of that sun
The door opened, and a tall young
mafi .a foreigner, came in He
bowed very punctiliously. He was
dark and thir and quiet-looking
“I have come to play for you.
mademoiselle." he said In broken
English. "I s there anything you
would like—any ballet suite you are
especially fond of?"
Judy shook her head helplessly.
Her voice was panic-stricken.
■■I don’t know anything about

failure, I don't think I can dance.

"Oh, but, mademoiselle, of course
you can dance!" said the young
man. "You must not be nervous.
M. Guarvenius is so kind. Perhaps
yon would rather I Improvised?
Some dancers prefer it; I can fol

the theme—shall It be Spanish

"Could you do something Scotch?”
Judy asked, trembling with excite

She swept her arm around. She
hardly knew her-eif
Ah. that Is cold and bleak and

He went to the piano and struck
out a tunc, note by note, It v-as

descended, and there burst upon
her atralntd ear* music which, had
seats at the same time. Guarvenius'
sad voice sounded in her ears.
“Some northern country—Scot
land, 1 think—and a girl ° f the hill*

ter and fir trees—and*at last the
sound of the pipies coming over the

that it, Miss Judy?”
Judy was transfixed with amane
ment. Had she really conveyed all
that?
Gideon was severely noncommit
tal as "he turned to the great man.
"I think you are not displeased,
he said, “Miss Grant has talent,
has she not?"
Guarvenius was not a man to ex
