. DAMAGE SUIT HEARD

EATON, O., Jan. 28. Little headway was made in the trial of the damage suit of WJliam Kopp against Amos Young, which began here Monday in common pleas court. Kopp is suing Young for $25,750, for permanent injuries he alleges he suffered when Young's automobile ran into hia wagon and he was knocked from the

wagon Into the roadway. Judge Clarence Murphy, of Hamilton, is hearing the case. In place of Judge A. C. Rlsinger. Late arrival here of Judge Murphy and the considerable length of time consumed in securing a Jury left little time the opening day of the trial for the introduction of testimony. It will take several days to finish the trial, it is thought

.. WORK OR lOVE? , "Jan! Suppose you simply, had to make a choice between your work and your love, which would you choose?" Cora Temple shot the query at Janet one afternoon as the two were having tea together in Cora's living room. "Cora what a horrible question. I I couldn't choose." "But suppose you had to?" persisted Cora. "Stop and face the riddle for a minute just as Dave and I sometimes ask each other, 'What would you do if I. diedmarry again?" Go ahead; answer.". , "Well, when I was about twenty and working in an office with a lot of other girls," said Janet slowly pipping her tea for courage, "1 used to think love was the most Important thing in the world. Some of the girls were so starved for it, "Their lives were just one grind day after day. Their pleasures were so few, and were mostly taken with other girls or with relatives or brothers or cousins. No real spice in their lives, no love affairs,- no thrilling adventures. We were all being cheerful on the outside. But, oh, how we longed in our hearts for the Man to come! . The Man who should love and marry us." "So you vote for love!" cried Cora. "Hurray! I can see you're still happy with Walt ,you conventional old married woman, you!" "Now, wait a minute. Not so fast. I'm trying to think it out. I say that's the way I felt at twenty or so. I'm nearly twenty-six now, and Walter and I have been married almost a year. We are happy happier than almost any pair I 1-now except you and Dave. But after you have found work' you like mind 'you, I don't mean heard, stupid, hopeless hack

work you begin to see that it is really the- most important thing in the world. The ideal thing is to hare both work and love, as I have. But if I had to choose now, I believe I would choose the work." - Why, dear?" Cora was serious now. "Because work that you truly enjoy can be made to fill your life. Love, in itself, cannot. It may for a time, but just love alone . is too personal. It affects only you. It doesn't do anything for anybody else. And by and by you grow restive under it. You long for some activity. You have a hankering to do something with it "Of course," Janet went on earnestly, "if a woman's love leads ber into homemaking and motherhood, that brings work with it. In that case it Is not love alone. And we are talking about just love, m itself and by itself." Janet paused, studying the glowing coals, analyzing for the first time the real essence of love. The more she thought of it the more certain she felt litat if she had to choose between work and lve she would choose work. She could no longer picture her life without usefulness. Usefulness! That was the keynote. That was the reason she would choose work abovi love becouse of the exhilaration, the satisfying Joy of feeling useful! "I've got the answer," she said aloud, sitting up straight and looking at Cora, who was bent over some baby sewing In her lap. "I'd choose work congenial work and take the chances of love coming along of iteelf." "Why?" smiled Cora. "Do they go together?" "I believe they do," said Janet "If I bad only love I have only Walter.

- ' v Nobcdy else would need me. 'And 1'4 ji A -.V.f . Onfth m till lltl.

istence would suffocate mo . after f while. But if I did not have Walter but; only my work, I'd be useful to anj number of people- I'd earn the lov of men and women and of little cnil dren. And while that isn't the All Absorbing Great Love, still It's enongl to sweeten a person's life. And aftei a while probably another love wouU spring np, a dearer and more persona' one. Yes, Cora, love travels in thi wake of work. But love alone begini and ends in Itself. Work the right work is the better choiceT" 5 ' (To bo continued.)
