War Leaves Women Out of Picture Situation Should Be Used in Propaganda for Peace. BY DOROTHY DUNBAR BROMLEY TimM spril Writer 'T'KE women'* peace societies, with ail of their humanitarian propaganda, have mi**ed an important be’. They ought to get down to human psychology snd show vnir/n that war Is a direct menace to them as a se*. Women l ave no place in a warring world, except as breeding machine for future wars. When a n fighting to defend his coun-! t r v or thinks he is—the image of a woman is pushed far back in his con sciousne ss. Women's bodies may V a surcease to soldiers on leave, but they are mlv that. War even distorts the value w iiich a woman puts on herself. Nur ' and other women who A. E. F. will remember the craziness of those days. They gave of their bodies again and again out of corr.pa ; ion for men who were about to face death. Making Men of Steel Tn 'The Lives of a Bengal Lancer.” a film now being shown, you see an English regiment holding bark the native forces on the Indian border. The coionei of the regiment represents the best army j tradition—the Kipling tradition.! I ong ago he plowed under the softer! side of his nature and let his young ' American wife leave him because she couldn't s'and the gaff of border a;mv life. The absence of women in this officer's life mukes him the man of steel he is. Women don't mix well with warfare; they are too diverting. Two of the officers of the Bengal T anrers suffer frightful torture at the hands of the Moslems. But with their next breath thev ran say. •Take us. break as. England; we are yours.” These young men don’t see m to miss women in their lives. They have that swell kind of companionship. raßging and jeering and vet tender, that made ’'Journey's End” better war propaganda than peace propaganda. Write Foe try in Trenches T should like some philosopher to tell me why it takes war to bring n it heroism and selflessness in men. Many of the officers and men in A F. F. found life more significant. more pulsating than it ever has been since. I know men who wrote poetry in the trenches, but thev left the mood behind them in Pins. Business and professional lip on the American model doesn't inspire a man to any lyric heights. I m desperately afraid there’s something in this nationalistic busir< ns which has got to be reckoned with. It reaches men's hearts’as surely as a strong poison does. Poets and artists —men who have dedicated themselves to beauty—are as ready as others to give themselves up to the trade of murder when war lever sweeps a country. The Nazis would call the urge that drives them to war the el.xir of life. 1 call it poison, because the man

NOW t.O ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR THE first time she practiced the song with the orchestra Treasure was inclined to think her mother might bo right. The entire setup was so unfamiliar. No one in the orchestra, except Oliver, had she even seen before, and the empty night club as unlike Pete's as possible, was decorated in modernistic fashion glittering with mirrors and black and silver paint. Tm scared.” she whispered to Oliver before she began. “Nonsense,” he snapped. “Get up there and do your stuff.” She overheard one of the musicians saying in a low voice to the drummer, “What's Keith trying to pull?” “Skip it!” the other retorted. They evidently had no confidence in the idea but when they played i the little song through from beginning Treasure was amazed to hear how the orchestration had brought out the poignant melody. There was nothing the matter with the song anyway and lor Oliver’s sake she would sing it and who goes off to fight in a spirit of consecration saves his soul only to lose it. "Forty Days on Musa Digh” shows what organized killing even in a just cause does to the finest tempered natures. Our men in the A. E. F. did not see enough action to scar their soul tissue. The English did, as you can tell from their disillusioned war novels. But will the younger generation learn anything from their fath- | ers and brothers? They'll more likely forget all they’ve been told—all i the anti-war votes they cast at Oxford —when the band strikes up. I am for the abolition of military music as well as armaments. We might as well face it. There’s a glamour in war which men have ne-.er found in any other enterprise. The Elizabethan explorers experienced something like it. But today there are no new hemispheres to discover, and if there were it would be all too easy a task. If women to stop war for their ow ? n and humanity's sake they'll have to find for it what William James called a moral substitute.

•ak** the consequences even if she were a flop. Feeling like this was not conducive to singing, however, ind Oliver stopped her before she had finished it. “Forget you re doing it In front of ar.y one, Treasure! Sing it the way you did Sunday.” She couldn't before that half circle of staring musicians although =he tried over and over again. Oliver was disappointed but not discouraged. “O. K.” he said. “Let it ride. We’ll try It again tomorrow. Meanwhile be working on a couple of other numbers. I'll come over tonight and suggest something for you.” Treasure went home dejectedly but when Oliver arrived he insisted it was only because she wasn’t used to singing with an orchestra, that it had bothered her. “You’ll get over it,” he assured her. “Just be yourself and forget that there is any one else in the room.” The next day It went a little better, then just as she had begun ? o be more confident she rehearsed it wearing the black suit and even Oliver gloomily admitted it was not as hot as he had hoped. But they would try it anyway. It was the Saturday after the big football game and tables had been reserved for weeks. Oliver, nervous as a cat, told her to be there early. “You’re to sing it three times,” he explained. There won't be many there the first time. It will be the

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League FOR some it is hard to appreciate the place that bridge plays in our social life. Men and women travel hundreds of miles across the country to play in a bridge tournament and, if they win, their only reward is to have their names engraved on one of the national tropries. No cash pribes and no betting are permitted at national tournaments. * I visited the Terrace Club, New York, the other night and was

pleasantly surprised to see the array of silver cups displayed in the clubroom. The players of this club have made a very fine record for themselves. It is one of the newer clubs and the younger players represent it. Recently' it added to its collection the national team-of-four and the national mixed pair trophies. Morrie Elis and Sylvester Gintell, two members of this club, also won for themsleves a trip to Florida, in a bridge tournament recently. Here's one of the hands played bv Morrie Ellis. He held the South cards. It will show you how alert and accurate these youngsters are on the play of the cards. B B B AGAINST the six no-trump contract. West made the natural opening of the five of clubs, the six was played from dummy, East played the three, and declarer won with the jack. South immediately cashed the ace of clubs and now made a nice play by leading a small heart toward dummy's jack. When West refused to win the trick, the jack held. This practically marked West with three hearts to the kingten. Now the spade suit was started and the four spade tricks cashed. East discarding a diamond and West letting go a club. The ace of diamonds was played and then a small diamond led. West discarded the eight of hearts, and the trick was won with the king in dummy. The declarer now has two perfect end plays on West: he can end play with hearts or clubs. However, he preferred hearts and returned a small heart to his ace. Then he led a small heart, which West was forced to win with the king. Dummy discarded a diamond and, as West had only the queen and nine of clubs left, the last two tricks were won in dummy with the king and ten of clubs. (Copyright. 1935. NEA Service. Inc.)

second and third times that will count.” Ellen, still disapproving, repeated, “I think you're making a mistake.’’ Then, as if sensitive to the fact that for the first time in his life his mother had something else on i her mind, little Tony was ill. It was just a cold, the doctor said. Noth- | ing serious and no reason for Treasure staying at home, but she wept at the thought of leaving him. Only the fact that it would be unfair to Oliver prevented her from calling the whole performance off. ; She felt as if she would never see her baby again as she hurried down j the street. If she suffered like this over leaving him for a few brief hours j what must have been the agony of that poor little chorus girl 37 years ago? No matter how her mother felt about it, Treasure was sure that grandmother of hers had shed many bitter tears. Whatever her reason for giving up her baby, Treasure knew it must have torn her heart. Why else would she have written that song? n n TI7HEN vhe reached the club it ’ was as Oliver had said. The place was filling slowly but there was an atmosphere of excitement | about the holiday-making crowd. Most of tne orchestra was already on the platform tuning up. Oliver, calm now, wore a glassy smile which deceived no one. Certainly not the girl in the cheap suit who whispered, “Tell me when you’re \ ready.” She was not to sing from the platform but from a doorway farther down the room where she was to appear unannounced after they had played the melody through. "More lipstick.” Oliver suggested, j “You want your mouth heavily made 1 up and the rest of your face dead I white. There, that's better. .'Now j then.” Pale wings of hair framed the j wistful face beneath the small black hat. Her eyes were wide a’..d dark ; as she stood behind the curtained doorway and waited for Oliver to give the signal. The orchestra played the song entirely through with no appreciable lull in the hum of conversation but when a slender girl in a cheap black suit and hat suddenly appeared in the doorway singing it a hush fell upon the scattered diners.

There wa.> heartache in that voice. The tragedy of love in her white, young face. Not a woman there but thought, “I know how she feels;” rot a man but admitted uncomfortably, “I’ve made girls look like that.” She stirred the imagination until the ghost of every dead love in that room stole from its hiding place and lifted the one face every person beyond 30 conceals deep in his heart. Men and women stared at j her seeing someone else, while ! memories long submerged made their throats ache with the pain of suppressed tears. Then as abruptly as it had started the music ceased and she was gone. B B B THERE was dead silence—a greater tribute than the applause that followed. But Oliver refused to let her sing it over as an encore. "Mustn’t spoil it,” he warned. ‘‘Later on you may, but not tonight.” The piano player's face was wreathed in smiles no longer glassy. Even the musicians who had stared at her so disinterestedly that first day were impressed by the unexpected sensation she had caused. And, w T hen it was repeated the second and third times with even greater effect, Treasure herself knew the victory had been won. Oliver had put his idea across. There was no need for him to tell her. For some reason she her- j self would never understand, the song had. as Oliver expressed it, "gotten under their skins.” Before the night was over many of them were humming it and the poingnant minor chords trembled in the air long after the orchestra had finished playing it. Oliver's delight was like that of a child. He squeezed her hand until it hurt, whispering "Great; work, kid! Wait a minute and I'll take you home.” Even the proprietor of the night club, a large man as unlike Pete Fernando as possible, expressed his appreciation with an exaggerated bow and much kissing of the hand. On their way home Oliver cried. "It was a great performance. I wasn’t wrong. You've got what it takes.” • ] 'I had very little to do with it,”! she protested. "It was your way of presenting it.” "It's a swell song. Treasure, and bow you can sing it! Tell me what were you thinking about?” "My baby,” she answered with an j uncontrollable break in her voice, j "He wasn't well when I left him , tonight.” "I thought it might have been his father. You didn't sound as if you were thinking of a child.” "But I was,” she insisted. Oliver sighed, then he said cheerfully: "This is the beginning of good luck for both of us. Treasure. Something big is bound to come before our six weeks are up. And in the meantime, young lady, you're under j contract. How does $35 a week sound to you?” 1 To Be Continued)
