Th® eldest girl set her sturdy bark against a tall tree, the two smaller ones settled themselves comforta bly at her rather good-sized feet, and the spell began to work. "Tempest frowned darkly." be gan t,ho eldest girl. "Oh!" cried the little girl, "that mean old Tempest is beginning again I almost hate to hearabout her. She is awfully mean." And rather than disturb theit joy I stole carefully .away down the green canon and. left them to getliei there by the riven rock, where the clear water sang tit® song of summer and of laughter in green, sb-ady nooks.

Isn't it too ba,d? "Tempest and Sunshine." what a riuce-r old-fashioned hook ft was. to he sure. Not a marrietk woman in it. not a stolen kiss, not an elope ment even; no actre.’s. no late sup pers. no divorces, no "climbers." no clever innuendos, as Mr. Aston Stevens says nothing hut honey and bread and butter and snowy biscuits and blue eyes and that wicked, wicked Tempest. How could we ever have been so absorbed in it when teacher found me reading it in my geography so many years ago? And yet there they sat today together in the deep canon, the three growing girls, as deeply absorbed in the old-fash ioned book they had fished out of some garret as if it had been a treatise on eugenics, the sort of thing that seems to be so fashion able just now. Have the girls changed, ot have we who buy the books for them changed ? Sentimental, high-flotvn. lacking in literary merit. Doubtless. doubt less, no one could claim much for the "art for art's sake" side of the Holmes book or Its like. And yet just the other day when a girl of seventeen went with me foi a aalk up the green canon wheie the laughing water calls day and night to all who are weary to come and rest and laugh, too. and when he carried as light reading in her blouse pocket "De Profundi' " m<) ■a nuai Khayyam" I felt sonieho'-*' as disconcerted a- I would to watch a harmless gray and white kit ten trying tn mak* itself believe that it liked mustard and horse radish for dinner and couldn't abide a dish of bread ami milk with good thick yellow cream on it.

I'd take my chance w ith any on*' of the little readers of "Tempest and Sun shine" up there in the canon the other day and let the poor puzzled earnest young person with the "Omar Khayyam" yearnings and the "De Profundis" cult go by »n the very cold side of the street for all of me.

By THOMAS r~r>HE recall is a special form of | the initiative. The mechan ism of this factor In our po litical life Is very simple. In cer tain cities a clause has been insert ed in the charter permitting the i ailing of a new election to fill an office on petition of 25 per cent, more or less, of the voters. Its direct object is to give rhe people the power jo remove an in efficient man from office, if he has misused or abused the privileges of it. By the recall clause in its char ter. Izw Angeles. Cal., has removed a mayor from office. It is no easy matter to determine how far the power of recall is a just instrument In rhe hands of the people. Put there is no question whatever as to Its safety, if the people rise to the level of it Intelli gently. The one great asset count ed on b v political rings and bosses is rhe supitieness of the people. They count on the mas? not taking hold, not taking intelligent interest in polities. Anri this close analysis has a point in this, that it leave.* the rings anil bosses free to use their power as. they like. This Fact Escapes The Average Man. It is amazing that a fact so sim ple and so plain to discover should escape the average man. What does he do when he is convinced that rhe ring has so forced up things about him that only a hand-to mouth fight is possible? He does nothing. The powers know hr will do nothing, and they sing the Halle lujah Chorus quite often, for quite often things conie their way with no opposition. Before the advent into our poli tical vocabulary of Initiative. Ref erendum. PreferentiqJ Primary. Re call and the like the average votgr was about as safe as a man with one foot in the grave and the other on a banana neel. Rut these new words, and all the ideas for which they stand, are not fixed condi tions; they are open doorways by which you can go out into the field and exercise new powers. It must hr remembered that the Initiative is just as apt to Inspire a had man as a good one. It is all a question of which can get the re quired number of signatures to his petition and the majority of votes at the election which his petition calls for. People Must Watch Over This New Privilege. Hence the people with the new ' power and privilege are very much like a body of owners of valuable physical property. They have to watch it. cover It with high insur ance. and have an eye on It night and day.

That is one form of In itiative. Hitherto when a vicious man has been put in office, he has usually remained there until his term expired; hut the instance of T.os Angeles, quoted above, shows how such a case may be dealt w/h once it comes to popular notice. But Is the Recall a necessary in strument to place in the hands of the people? if you read only th® daily papers you will be convinced that as good men heartily- con demn it as others, equally good, defend It. It Is pointed out that when the mob takes the Initiative to hang a man instead of leaving his case in the hands of law- and th® courts. If proves that public opinion can be influenced to per form irresponsible deeds. But. happily, there lies In th® In itiative a very great power. That power is the nomination to office of a man WHO WILL NEVER NEED TO RE RECALLED. That a meth od should be provided for the r<t moval from office of an unfit pet son. has never been denied, hencir impeachment trials w®re Instituted But the temptation to remove arf officer on the petition of a sm.j" per cent of the voters Is a differ instrument It Is true ths! i sense of the voters may kill I 1 prayer in the petition. Some cities and towns that : added the Recall factor to th charters have been Very careful consider this. Eor example. Ere. n - California, demands 51 per cent o the voters to sign a Recall peti tion; on the other extreme. Berke ley requires only 20 per cent. Need More Experience to ] Estimate Its Value. The Recall has been described as "a blow- at the dignity of public life." Properly and justly- to esti mate Ils value w.e need more expe rience. and w® shall probably get all w® need of it.

For th® 99 per cent a w ise choice of candi date. an intelligent effort to get the right man for the place, a disposi tion to stand by justice In all its forms: these are the factors of in surance against a catastrophe that ire all powerful.
