LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO RUTH BURKE—CONTINUED. We quickly motored to the aviation field after Mr. Sartoris’ luncheon, and before we knew it we were aboard the three great passenger planes. “I shall have to plead ignorance,” I said as I settled myself beside Mr. Sartoris in the first car to take off. T did not know there were any passenger planes in this country of the type that flies the English Channel.” “There are no others, Mrs. Prescott. These belong to me. One I am going to take with me on my yacht, and the others I have given to some buddies of mine who want to establish passenger seiwice between New York and Chicago.” “Are you always as generous as that to your friends?” “Not always, my dear lady. In fact, some people think I am quite selfish. But these men saved my life, one of them not only once, but twice, and although I do not consider my life any great prize, yet it’s the only one I have, and perhaps I am better off than I would be had I died at that time. "The men who are driving these cars are these buddies of mine, and they tested them very well in New York before I had them delivered here. However, we are making what is really the first trip.” It was awfully exciting, Ruth. Some of the women were sea, or rather air-sick, I suppose you call it, but I was all right. I remembered what Mother had written me concerning her trip across the channel, and I wondered if she had the same exhilaration I was having now. We didn’t talk very much —it was too thrilling. Jack was not in the ship with me. he went with the little widow in another one, and the last I saw of him he was helping her into the great car very carefully. Jack is always very susceptible, you know. I think I must have slept most of the way, for when I opened my eyes it was twilight and we were sailing along beside a place near the sea. We landed not far from where the Atlantis was anchored, and again boarded a gas launch which was tied to the wharf. In a few minutes

we were all on board of Mr. Sartoris’ yacht at last. Ruth, that boat is the most beautiful one I have ever seen. Mr. Sartoris must be one of the richest men In America. Everyone was hungry and soon a gorgeous dinner was spread under the awnings out on the deck where It was still warm enough to eat comfortably. "I should think you would be very lonely in this wonderful yacht dining alone completely out of sight of land,” I remarked to my host. “I am," he answered fervently; but he added; "I do not think, however, that I am as lonely on my own deck with nothing to look upon except the restless sea as I am in the midst of the crowd that I find in any big hotel dining room. "I never feel so much alone as when I see people all about me bent on enjoyment In which I am not participating.” He bent a little closer as we stood by the rail. (Copyright, 1925, XEA Service, Inc.)

Mrs. Huck Helps Strap a Violent Lunatic in Bed

Wmnifred Mason Huck. former Congresswoman and the firnt woman to preside over the House of Representatives, got her sell sentenced to prison. Guiltless of any crime, she sought answer* to the questions— Arc our prisons humane? Can a girl, crushed by h?r fellow men. regain her place in society? This is tn t-.venty-sixth story, written for The Times. By Wionlfred Mason Huck Former Representative to Congress from Illinois. .<(—| HAT’S the matter with this VY/ place?" I asked gently of v ' the irritable old woman. "Matter! With nil the yelling and carrying on of Miss B and them giving us nothing to eat! Just look at that tray. I don’t, like that kind of salad,” she said, picking up the lettuce leaves and shaking the test of the salad into her tray. “And dearie, get me a glass of water and fix this tray different and get me the stool for my feet and tuck these blankets in around —Oh. Oh!” I had not dreamed she had such a big yell in her system. “You hurt me! You hurt me!” but she could not tell me just what hurt or where. I finally calmed her down. She confided in me that the doctor and the nurses were so bad to her that the maids just could not stand to see her treated as she was. so they always left soon after arriving. All the Dishes In the morning, I swept and dusted all the patients’ rooms on the second and third floors also. I did all the dishes of those who ate in the house. I cleaned the doctor's rooms where he gave treatments, and In the afternoon I had to help the doctor strap one of the second floor "mental cases" down to her bed. She was raging as if possessed with an authentic evil spirit. After supper, it became my duty to put some of the patients to bed. I began to wonder at this. I had gone to the sanitarium to work in the kitchen, to cook and do cleaning about the house. The little slip I had carried from the employment agency had said, “housework. There was no trace of the exconvict’s humility about me as I began to consider the impositions that were being put upon me. They were expecting me to do some of the skilled and unpleasant work of a trained nurse. "I can not handle people," I said to the head nurse. "I have not the constitution or the training.” Somehow, the meekness which had been stamped into me in jail was ’eaving utterly. On the first Sunday after my arrival, Miss B’s morning tirade ran upon the subject of food. “I wish we could have something decent to eat in this place,” she whined, as I was sweeping her room. She had just eaten a good breakfast and had gone back to bed to sulk over it. Nice and Clean "Everything is nice and clean | here.” I ventured, gently, trying to j soothe her. “Yes, too damned clean,” she said, getting louder and louder. “That nurse, the worst woman in the world, gave me a bath last Wednesday. I nearly died. I have been sick ever since.” She seemed to have no objections to her Saturday baths. "And you have such a good doctor,” I ventured again, trying to j think of something that would pacify her.” In f roping for the brake I had' put my foot on the accelerator. “He’s the worst doctor in the city,’ she screamed. I gave up and let the poor old creature run her course. Before J had finished her room, she had dis coursed upon her relatives, Individ ually and collectively. Then she had gone the rounds of her acquaintances, declaring each one to have the distinction of being he worst person or the most perfect fool in he world. “And I just know you wish I would die.” was her sudden attack. “No,” said I, puting the finishing

touches to the bureau, “I do not want you to die.” As I left the room, she went into a frenzy of rage. ‘‘You’re lying. Every’ maid here wished it before she left.” Her miserable, quavering voice followed me down the corridor as I left. Slow Footsteps One day, while working in another room, I heard slow footsteps coming up the stairs. I looked into the hall. Miss B waa standing at her door, hair disheveled and eyes wild. “Whoever is coming up those stairs is taking an awful long time,” she said. And then as Mra. A came into view, Miss B said, with infinite scorn, “Oh, here comes the nervous wreck, and stared at Mrs. A. until she gained her room and shut the door. Then, with a flip of her skirts, she sailed into her own room and slammed the door. That night as I prepared Miss B for bed. she fell into a weeping fit. I “You have such a human touch,” she told me and burst into a storm of tears. “And you shake out and hang up my clothes so daintily,"— more tears—" You never say anything cross to me”—still more tears. “Poor old soul,” I said to myself again “Alone with her memories, ideserted and old and forlorn." That night I sat up until the head nurse returned from her evening off. “I am leaving tonight,” I said to her. "I am not making good. I can wash dishes, sweep and dust the rooms and help with the cooking according to the agreement that I had with the agent who sent me here. “I do not mind smoothing down ruffled and garrulous old ladies. But I can not prepare these, patients for bed in the capacity of a nurse. Not a Nurse “I am not employed as a nurse, and besides I am so constructed that

I o3fi not help to strap a human being to a bed. “Possibly It has to be done, but I will not do it again.” I rejoiced in the Elizabeth who said, ”1 will not.” It seemed to signify the resurrection of the spirit which had been crushed in Jail. The nurse was reasonable. She understood my point of view and did not make my leaving difficult. I felt grateful to her for not making a scene or having words about it. for I had not had one good night's sleep since my arrival in that place. Mrs. A and Miss B had a way of wandering around at night. Wandering at Night Although I knew the violent ones were locked in their rooms on the second floor, I would waken two and three times in the night, thinking of them as I heard someone brush quietly against my door. “It is too late to catch a car into the city tonight," the nurse explained. “The first one in the morning starts at 5 o'clock." So at quarter to five, with my bag in my hand. I went as quietly ns possible down the noisiest stairs

Message No. 2 to the Heads o f Smaller Businesses No Friction No Waste , There are two thlnga In parttcnlor that should be given serious thought when planning the advertising for your business. They are: Friction and Waste. Os ccmrsa* they are not to be thought of In a mechane leal sense, bat rather as they enter into th reception of your copy In the first case and as to the number of people who do not sea or read it tn the second. Friction tn advertising is generated by • too obvious attempt to selL It is simply the natural re-actlon of any person to a cold calculated effort to Induce them to exchange their money for some particular article. In personal selling this element is always taken into account and the salesman puts forth every particle of tact and persuasion with which he Is endowed to lessen or come It. In sdvertlslng there are two ways of combating Friction. The first, which is too expensive for the average small business, Is to over-ride the antagonistic attitude of the readers by the sheer preponderance and weight of large copy. The second method is to use the Classified Columns. Friction is eliminated tn these columns because of the intimate personal nature of the Ads that are carried therein. People do net have the Want Ads forced on their atteiv tlon. They turn to them because they have learned that they embody the spirit of give and take. They have learned that articlee advertised In the Want Ads are usually bargains. They will so regard your offerings in these columns. Waste In advertising ts an element that the smaller advertiser suffers from the most. It Is caused by people failing to see small copy In their more or less hurried persual ’of the different pages. News matter and large copy first and almost entirely get* their attention. You practically do away with this expensive element when using the Classified Columns. Small copy is not only seen but is read when carried in the Want Ada. The readers regard these columns as a necessity and a utility and read them with unusual thoroughness. Your Business Can Be Increased By Using THE TIMES Classified Columns . For your convenience The Times maintains an efficient telephone department. Phone your ads. MAin 3500
