National progress depends upon enlightened public opinion registered by ballot so as to insure the right kind of leadership in local, state, and national affairs. Iq national affairs in particular, the need for constructive leadership is greater now than it has been since the days of the World v.ar. The prolonged depression has created conditions that are as disastrous as war itself and the united effort of all the people is necessary to insure safe re adjustments in national life. Women are equally responsible with men for an intelligent use of the ballot to remedy existing conditions. failure to use the ballot indicates an indifference to the national well-being that cannot be excused on any grounds. Women, as well as men. have their individiual duties, their individual activities, based upon personal desire for either profit or pleasure; and it is recognized that to assume the obligation of citizenship is an on enous burden that many would like.to avoid. However, women cannot shift to others the responsibilities that shoqM be jointly shared; they must accept politics as a medium through to work for a stronger and a happier nation; they must vote regularly in the interest of good ■ government, wisely administered. In‘ reply to an editorial published a few days ago in this paper, some one has sent us the following beautit uh verse: "Did you give him a lift. He’s a brother of man, and bearing about all the burden he catL Did you give him a smile? He was downcast and bine, and the snrf*e would have helped him to .battle it through. Did you give him a hand? He was slipping down hi 1, and the world so I fancied was using him ill. Did you give him a word? Did you show him the road? Or did you just let him go on with his load? It must be serious for the G O. P. Even such a staunch, though

Bob Tucker, political writer for I the Cincinnati Enquirer and the 1 on.y man in this state who predicted four years ago that Hoover j would carry Indiana by 300,000 now says that his guess for year is 150,- ' 000 for Roosevelt.

The Cincinnati Enquirer straw vote in Ohio shows Roosevelt leading by a vote of two to one and polls from all over the state give a decided margin to the New York governor.

Where another young man might feel exultant, Joel views his promotion with misgtvijgs. Only the other day he told me that the idea of stardom frightens him. He has seen too many players come to grief through premature build-ups. A little more experience would be welcome to him before he takes the big step. But R-K-0 thinks differently. They have been watching him since he left the extra ranks to try his first real part in “The Silver Horde.” Odd thing about that part. Joel and his father had agreed that he would try the films for one year. If he showed no progress in that time, he would quit and go into business. Three days before the year was out. Joel was signed for “The Silver Horde.” Recently, things have been breaking splendidly for him. He played opposite Dolores Del Rio in “The Bird of Paradise.” He has fine roles in the unreleased “Sport Page” and “The Most Dangerous Game.” Now to find the right story for that all-important first starring picture. Any ideas, readers? Latest one about the quickie companies is related by Lyle Talbot. Several days ago, says Lyle, a certain actor was up for a part at one of the smaller studios. His agent called up for confirmation of the deal. The casting director snapped: “Sorry, we can't use him. He doesn’t fit the uniform.” BOULEVARD TOPICS. Rumor has it that the McLag’enLowe picture at Fox will be a remake of “What Price Glory?” That's another good reason why | they are trying to sign Dolores Del

CHAPTER FORTY-SIX “Patricia! Y'ou sent a telegram to Warren and signed your cousin’s name to it?” < “I did. I told you I'm a terrible person. But she took a pretty high handed part in my affairs at Pltlm Beach trying to marry me off to an old thing with a horse's face. So I decided to take a high handed part in her affairs and marry her back to her own husband that she’d let get away from her and didn’t have gumption enough to get back. I sent him another telegram too in my own name and told him I’d found Mrs. Brownley out as a cheap gold digger hugging every rich man she could get her arms around." “My dear, weren’t you going rather far in making so sweeping a statement?” "No, I wasn’t. It'a true. Hadn’t I just caught her with her arms around Jack Laurence's neck right in this room? I told Jimmie about that too, in the telegram.” “Ah . . . my child, pull up that footstool and sit down here at my knee and tell me all about this pounding business." “You—l'll sit on the coueh.” “I'd prefer to have you at my knee.” She drew up a footstool, and told him the whole story. Mr. Braithwait smiled. “Put mayn’t her story be true in every particular, and not a eleverly concocted scheme to get a rich husband, as you so evidently thinkT*’ “I thought that at first,” said Patricia, “in spite of the fart that I had caught her in several little lies. But when I broke my brain open trying to find away to help her and offered her that job Antoine offered me—nothing to do but dress beautifully and live luxuriously with big money in it — and when she turned that down, I knew she was a liar and a cheat who didn’t want to do anything but live on 'dividends’ from gullible rich men. I saw the whole fabric of lies. And I knew she’d made a friend of me either to spy on me and lie to Jimmie, or to work me up as she did. to giving him back his promise to me. Is it any wonder I pounded her —making fools of Jimmie and me, both?” “But what was this about her arms around Jack Laurence?” “Well, you see, after she’d turned down a swanky job and given the lie to her whole pitiful story and I knew exactly what she was and what Jimmie was in for, I went out to get some tea. I'd asked her to lunch. So I left her in the studio while I went to get the tea.” “You were still going to give her lunch after you knew ‘exactly what she was and what she had let Jimmie in for?’” he asked, repeating her words. She flushed. “Well, I’d asked her. 1 wouldn’t have done it again. But as she was already here at my invitation ” “Yes; and it wouldn’t have been hospitable to have given her a pounding before lunch. You did give her lunch first, I take it?” “No, I didn't. When 1 got back, the door was a little open. I walked in and there they were in each other’s arms—Jack Laurence and her. 1 ordered him out. He did't want to go but 1 pushed him. Then I slammed the door and locked it, and pounded her. “1 wasn’t even interested in him. 1 didn’t care how he hugged her or anybody else. I pounded her because of what she’d done to Jimmie.” “Quite io But if you hadn’t ee.ught her and Jack embracing you would have given her luneh and sent her home without the hospitality of a pounding. That’s curievs My dear. I'm afraid you are all woman.” She looked up at him. “If you mean——-” “I'd like to ask a favor of you,

Go turn your desert seen so I can see it.” She obeyed wonderingly, "Do you mind telling me who th woman in that picture is?” She hesitated. “Os course, not unless you wan to,” he put in. “It’s me ... L” “And the burnt up cactus yo are, and clearly have been, toilini toward a long time—l think I hear you say the woman is toiling tc ward it in the belief that it is tree to shelter her from all tha aridity—what does the cactus rep resent?” Again she hesitated. Then defi antly: “That’s Jimmie.” “4ind over to the left there is shadow cast by a tree which yo said wasn't in the picture and tha the woman was going away frot Her eyes fell. Swift color rushe into her face. She made no answei He chuckled. “Os course yo precious little idiot, I’ve known i for a long time. How long hav you known?” Eyes still downcast, sh e an swered in a low voice: “I didn' know it for sure till—till he caugh me in the Regence with Jimmie and I knew he—wouldn’t phone m or come to see me any more.” “You knew quite positivel then?” “No, not exactly positively. Yoi see. I was so hurt over what Jim mie had told me—l suppose it wa my vanity—and so shocked too, be cause men — some men, are lik that; and worried because of wha Jimmie had told mo that made m know Aunt Pam loved him; I fel horrible about that, and what I’i done; then Jack came in and sai me in the Regence, and it was al so jumbled up—that 1 didn’t knoi anything exactly then. But after F painted that picture of—how I fel —I sort of wondered myself at firs —you see I knew the hot sand an , sky and barrenness represented what 1 felt inside of me. Then put myself in the picture—and th i cactus. And all at once 1 knew tha was what I really felt about Jim , mie. I put the shadow of the tre i over there to represent how I’d los ■ Jack, running after Jimmie. But , don’t care now. I never want to sc him again. I hate him.” Mr. Braithwait rose. His eye were shining. “Let’s go have som dinner, child.” “You forgive me, Dad urns, so what I did in this room?” i “My little girl. Socrates advance ■ the idea that all the sin and suffer ’ ing and chaos of the world was du i to the defective sight of men; tha clear sight would not only mak ■ men wise, but make them virtuou and happy.

I your eyes had been open you woul have known better than to poun that unfortunate Mrs. Brownlej for you would have known ther was no reason for it. Arrange you face and let’s have some food." While they were waiting for thei , dinner, Mr. Braithwait went to us I the telephone. “I’m going over t see your Aunt Pam for a littl . while after dinner.” he said upo i his return. “Oh, Dadums, don’t leave m I alone again.” “I’m not going to.” She looked at him in alarm. “ ■ don’t want to go.
