MORALS ARE NOT SERVED ON A TRAY Nora Deming, in 'We Sing Diana/' First Educates Herself in a Woman’s World and Then Has One Marvelous Fling at Life. By WALTER D. HICKMAN MORALS seem to me something that one can not place in the ice box and use when cold on a nice luncheon table. Nora Deming seemed to have the idea that she was safe from everything in the world because she was forever being educated.

You will meet Nora as the central character in “We Sing Diana” by Wanda Fraiken Neff and published by Houghton Mifflin Company. Nora in this story protected herself against the world and men by building up a mental dome of the most tremendous size. She denied herself of sex expression, physical as well as mental. Nora built up a grand mental wall against everything and everybody. Nora while young in school, refused to have moonlight parties of any nature with girls of a certain type. She closed her eyes to life. While in school, she saw young girls go the wrong way in sex as well as knowledge. She saw good girls while at school and in real life do the “dutch act.” For why? And so Nora, the chief character in this lengthy study, jams her head full of knowledge. That she is sure will give her security against life. But Nora protected by her books and her active mind had to step out in life. She saw wrecks here and there even while at school. She did not understand. She had no sympathy. She saw men and women reach the peak of material success. She saw her class mates marry and enjoy life. But she noticed one day that in life men and women were revolting against both success and failure. And that is probably the keynote of this strange story of a woman who revolted against a woman’s world as expressed in a woman’s college. Nora could not shut her eyes to life. Even when she became a noted teacher at the college for women, Nora failed utterly to keep something within herself from revolting against decency. Nora had been decent all her life. She knew right from wrong. She studied to shut out life. One day in London when the head of a department in a woman's college in America, Nora met a married man. This man was an officer in the army of that country. He was tired and lonely. And he was married but his wife wasn’t present. In fact he was ill and the doctor had told him that he couldn’t live long. And so he broke down the barrier for Nora. She lived with him for two weeks on a large English estate. There she saw the sunshine of life*as she thought. And. one day when the sun was the brightest, the man died. And

so Nora took the body of her man to his best male friend in England and departed for America before the wife arrived. Nora found that she was mentally changed. On arriving in America she became the dean of the college for women. ’ Nora kept her secret. One day, when Nora instituted reforms in the student body, she recognized life as it is. One of the students was to become a mother without a wtdding ring. She didn’t love the fellow In the case. And so Nora, knowing life, saw to it that the youngster came into the world right. There was no scandal because Nora adopted the baby. And so an old maid, Nora, kept her secret while she reared the child and taught hundreds of girls not to fear life. And that is Nora who did not become frightened when she knew life. You may not like Nora but she revolted.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SCHOOLS STAY ON SLOW TIME Board Refuses to Move Clocks Ahead. Indianapolis public schools will continue to operate on Central Standard time until the close of the school year, the school board decided Tuesday night. After expressing themselves as favoring adoption of daylight saving for schools to avoid confusion, four board members reversed their opinions ana voted against the change. Superintendent Charles F. Miller urged the board to continue on Standard time because there are only nine or ten more days of school. “There are approximately 10,000 children in the schools under 10 years of age,” he said, “and I don’t believe there is a reputable physician in town who would not agree with me that the children should have nine hours of sleep. The law doesn’t provide children shall go to bed an hour earlier at night.” A resolution protesting conversion of a residence at 27 E. Thirty-Fourth St., across the street from new Shortridge High School, into a business building, was adopted. Appeal for relief from crowded conditions at School 44 was made by a delegation from the Riverside Civic Association.
