MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1926 BACK INTO HARNESS AGAIN With the beginning of school in the fall all the wind seems to sweep back into its workday mood. Summer pleasures are warmed up till another year with summer weather. The desire to play is replaced by a mood that calls for the accomplishment of real tasks. And it is the student who leads the world back to its labors again. Although there may be a few of these "trail-blasers" who pretend to hate the thought of school, yet they are in reality enjoying the return to books as much as the so-called "grind." There is all the thrill of meeting old friends again, the making of new ones, the greeting of beloved instructors, the planning of a perfect schedule, and above all, the thrill that comes with the downing of new raiment. Summer has its pleasures and they are many, but there is something about autumn that brings a contentment greater than anything the summer months have brought forth. For, after all, there is nothing like getting back into harness again. Not long ago a woman shot her husband because he trumped her girl in a bridge game. One wonders if he was buried with simple honors. WHO'S NEXT? "And when are you going to swim the Channel?" seems to be the favorites query today. Even that old standby, the weather, has been displaced by this new topic of conversation. Greetings are no more prefaced by remarks about the health of the speakers but are introduced by "I hear you're planning to swim the Channel next year." Even "Red" Grange and Valentine dwindled into insignificance when Gertrude Ederle returned to her proud-awaiting native land. In fact, swimming the Channel has become a topic of importance to most of the world and especially to those nations whose citizens have so valiantly battled the waves of that short, but grim, stretch of water. With the successful attempts of Miss Ederle and her fellow countrywoman to the breaking of all previous records by the German entry, this event has been the topic of the summer. As football is to the fall sport fan so the Channel swim is to the lover of summer fets of endurance and skill. We wish to tender a note of thanks to all the successful contestants for affording a new conversational basis but most of all do we wish to thank them all for bringing our causal everyday greeting out of its rut. Comb Hills for Kanan — saya a headline. Really, this is almost too good to believe. We never knew before that anyone would take such viilence measures to read the Kanan. Book Notes O Genteel Lady—the subtle, delicate irony of that title makes one unexpectedly laugh aloud as one reads: "Genteel lady," a story. "o Genteel lady" she was in her time of hoops and buster, but the inside being of her* — not soooo boring! — not soooo boring! Forbes for her novel of this year, tickles one's fancy, gives one the feel- The patient pointer is Cathy. Who drove this pig against the blinds Was merely telling in his way. A truth the common people know. the long tradition of the years and taught that beauty, small or arent. A CHINESE SCREEN ram every cottage door appears o those who will but watch and wait We think it lives beyond our row Across the ridge, in powder role, Seen only by those above you Who paint the screen and tell it. Bet me; the open sky owl tree The purple night, the golden day, Belain alike to you and use And not allow to cut Cathay. —John C. Van Dyke, in "The Meadow." ing of an intangible / jest between herself and the author. Lanice Burdure paves the way for the tempestuous emotions and experiences of her twenties by making her way as a lady editor into the business world, so unsupriced for genteel ladies of her time. Her business contacts in the office of a classical journal, The New York Times, Whitier, and others in sunda's real manner that one feels toward them as human beings rather than Throughout the book the author has made one conscious of the gentle lady subject to unusual experiences which even to Lanice seem unengelled at times. And in her reactions she is woman - not - not gentle lady with never a thought except of love in connection with sweet, melling letters or the satisfied feeling accompanying life pursuits of securing a husband. She meets Anthony Jones, an English explorer from Arabia, with moral code in the traditional sense, and the sex attraction for both is too strong. He tries to terribly at times when "her insultive fascination of the Persian princess" is swallowed up in her gentility. She runs the grunt *emotions* and when he leaves for Armenia without her, he rejoices that love, but bound them together. the geniuses one pictures from their biographies. Lanie's life broadens as she finds she really is talented as a writer and is sent to Europe for biographical sketches of Tommy Thomson, George Eliot and James Joyce. Others. It is there she finally cures herself of her infatuation for Anthony and sails serenely back to Boston to marry Sara Ripley. She loves him with the safe, same, conventional man, makes for the gentled lady marriage. Her adventuring is, she so aids in a home of her own, and she is not even alarmed when she realizes her impudence has gone with the days EARN WHILE YOU LEARN Why skimp while in school? It takes money to go through college and lots of it. For Only a Part of Your Time We can "See You Through" DOUGLAS RADIO CO.
