'The play re volved around the hunting instinets of predatory women, ‘young and old, American and French, and the capture of charming but do-noth ing young men :in the jungles of one of Paris's most intérnational ly-famous and luxurious hotels. 1 Now Bournet repents his com edy. Or rather, he feels that it “dates.” What was true in the boom times is true no longer. But the effects of pre-war and post-war “prosperity” and title~] hunting have left their traces. They more or less cancel out, Bourdet argues, and the result is —true love! Rediscovering Love “Young people of lroth sexes are rediscovering a taste. for disinter ested love,” Bourdet, interviewed, declared. “They hawve found that, fundamentally, therefs nothing else as good. 1 “Since the pearl necklaces and other rich adorn'ments—even the phony ' jewels—of~ the rich inter national set are today mostly sold or in hock, the heart has once more become a. commodity ~much in demand. Indeed, it is ‘le dernier eri’ in fashion. “Let me eXpain the tra.nsitioni of love, among the world’s great people,” over the. course of a cen tury,” Bourdet observed. “At first it was the women who offered themselves in & the best-equjppedi marriage markets, and the men were happy to ruin themselves to have them. “That was pre-war—pretiy old fashioned, even then. : “Then the roles were reversed. The influx of the «aughters ot‘ millionaire . Americans; - and the enormous increase in family wealth during the last centacry in such‘ places as England, changed all that. The male became ihe hunted’ one, the object of assidiQus court ing. | “So the young male was able to lay aside the uncomfortahile armor of the conquering knight, and put on, instead, the delicate pajamas of the gigolo. “That was the gituation arter the war, and up through the great boom-times, until the depression took firm hold. Then agnin the marriage-game, among the upper classes, went through a revelution. “The crisis ddn’t spare . the bank accounts of the rich Ameri cans and their daughters and it has now been discovered that stocks in the* marriage market have tumbled so fast that even Chi!dren’s Colds Yield quicker to < double action of **@ VICKS G AT Miss Mildred Dearing, Misses ]Jonella and Katherine Taylor ac ‘companied Mr. Osborn Taylor to | Atlanta for the game and week end. .» - ¥ ’ Mrs. A.

There are no bid ders—at any price! “Money having thus lost its halo, nothing much remains except truly disinterested Jpve—and that is now beng précahed, in the circles of the formerly rich and still spec tacular, as a marvelous discov-, ery.” ‘ Bourdet asserted that a new wind of romdnticism is blowing through the corridors of the Ritz, .Claridge’s, the Crillon and the other gathering places of eligible young men and women here. The cycle is starting all over again, from ° its fundamentals.’ s “Young male aristocratg of all nations,” he continued, “have never hesitated to let themselves be captured by their women. So, the revolution which has lately taken place is really one in which even coats-of-arms have become demon etized, just like so many items in stock market reports. Quest of Titles Over “That being the case, another element has come in—the rivalry of young commoners, who play off their muscular vigor, skill at games, and actual personality against the possession of a title, which Wed to be the principle bait in*the marriage market. “In the old days, daughters of millionaires used to buy some off spring of an ancient title going back to the Crusades. Later they turned to tennis champions and yvoung, though penniless and title less, professional dancers. Now, with the disappearance of so much wealth, and the breaking down of the quest for titles, young people are letting themselves be attracted to one another, whether the men are heritors of an ancient name, or foundlings.” s ¥ & .

'™ o 4 E K at MICHAEL’S THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA 'League Members | Meet At Holman | { o }Luncheon Meeting Hears ' Discussion of Pending | Bond Election. ‘ Thg Athens League of Women | Voters’ monthly luncheon meeting l(or November was held Tuesday at the Holman hotel, and’ cne of the most interesting programs of the vear was presented, with the pres ident, Mrs. Paul R. Morrow, pre-" siding. ! The chief feature of the day’s program as planned was a talk by Mayor A, G. Dudley, guest speak er for the day, presenting the mat ter of the pending city bond elec i tion, with the important relating ‘facts. This was done in a clear, tand direct manner and was follow ed by discussion raised by ques tions designed to ygpresent the many possible views of whatever leaning. Mayor Dudley cooperated admir ably with the League in the mat ter and answered all questions iwith evident straight-forward | earnestness. Briefly, Mayor Dud ’ley's position was, that Athens is ‘able to float a bond issue, that it will duly serve a real need—cer ‘tain street paving, enlargement/ ‘and repair of school buildings, and improvement of the city water works, and that no increase inj taxes need result since the net in-}. come from the city waterworks is | sufficient not only to pay interest on the bhonds but also to retire the lsinklng fund. l t In course of- the discussien, Dr. J. C.. Meadows, dean of the Pea-| 'bod‘y' College of Kducation, spoke | briefly of the matter of the posi- | }tion of Athens in regard to its ac ‘tual and potential relations with ‘the Peabody Laboratory school. | * During the business meeting ‘which followed the discussions several matters relating to sub- Jjects of ecurrent interest in the League were dealt with. Mrs, Willilam J. Russell, legis lative ehairman, stated that the charter.of Athens still retains the old e¢lapse, that voters are not eli gible unless they have paid all their taxes, including poll tax, while under the recent amendment to the state constitution, any reg istered voter, upon payment of poll tax, is eligible to vote in any election. In ‘view of the conflict of opinions, locally, the League asked State Attorney General Yeomans’ opinion in the matter. He kindly responfied with a letter in which he gave it as his individual opin ion, that any registered voter can, upon meeting the poll tax require ments, vote in any election. .The League was asked to have a committee appointed to request the Democratic Executive Committee | to give the voters a real secret ballat by omitting the number from the ballot and leaving it on the stub only, with the name, as a rec ord. The League voted to ha¥e no election of local officers in Janu ary but to have the present ad ministration continue to serve un til June. Then to elect officers for‘ two years beginning in June. | It was decided by action of the League to have several study group teas in connection with the study meetings in the afternoons and not have a lunchéon meeting every month, but perhaps every two months. The meeting was well attended by the League membership, their individial gueéts, and other inter ested citizens, in response to the general invitation extended by the League. * * - SISTERHOCD CAKE SALE WEDNESDAY The Sisterhood of the Synagogue will hold a cake and pie sale Wed nesday rimrnlng at 8:30. ; A REAL SHOCK CHICAGO.—(#)—It was nothing less than a shock to Sergeant Frank Corcoran of the police de partment when he picked up the telephone and a vOwe reported a robbery in the apartment building where he resides. “Why that’s the building I live in,” he said. “Yes, I know,” replied the voice at the other end of the line. “This is your wife speaking.” Among other things she said the robbers stole Corcoran’s supply of shirts. | Returning Students Find Other Topics Interesting L| Bseides the Actual Game i (Continued From Page One) > iy ! ’lthe lobby.
