Value of Simplicity

Y O l’ NQ lady reader has asked us
to w rite something about Sim
plicity. Perhaps she ts that rarity
among modern women who has grown
tired o f the tinsel and show of the life
o f today aud wants to hear about
something less complicated—something
more a fter the fashions and thoughts
o f our grandmothers’ times.
But we are not going to w rite of
Simplicity In drese, or simplicity In so
cial customs. We are going to refer
the young lady to three things which
seem In all the world's complications
to be the best examples o f simplicity
th a t we can think of.
A
F irs t we ask her to consider a child.
Jesus said. “Suffer little children to
come unto me for o f such are the
Kingdom
of
Heaven.” T h e great
teacher did not mean that heaven was
peopled by little ones. But lie did
mean that the minds of those who
had attained supreme happiness had
the simplicity, the goodness, the love,
the trustfulness which Is characteris
tic o f the child.
Study the mind of a child and you
w ill marvel at the simplicity and di
rectness o f Its reaso nin g.
Innocence Is not necessarily Ignor
ance any more than Ignorance Is nec
essarily innocence.
T he simplest man who ever lived
was Jesus C h ris t His occupation of
carpenter was as modest as any of
H is time. But by His recorded words
are best shown the simplicity of UIs
thoughts. W hat
prayer could
be
simpler than the one which He left
fo r all mankind to repent? W hat.ser
mon could be more direct than His
m asterly utterance on the Mount?
.What could be more comprehensible
than the parables by which He
taught? And what
more grandly

simple than those Inst words
the cross, " It Is finished” ?
upon
The most forcible words of all lan
guages are the simplest. T ak e the
three words In English most frequent
ly used—“ I" — ••Yes"— "No.” How short
and simple they are.
W alt W hitm an, one o f the few
Americans who may be called a phi
losopher without misusing the word,
said, "The a rt o f arts, the glory of
expression and the sunshine of the
light of letters. Is simplicity.”
H e was talking about simplicity In
w riting — a necessity for C O O P w rit
ing. When you w rite or when you
spenk choose short simple words,
words that you thoroughly understand
and that your renders or hearers will
easily comprehend.
Be simple In your manners. The
most gracious and the most polite ure
the simplest.
Be simple In your tastes. Be sim
ple In your actions lie simple lu
your thoughts T he world may know
you less, but It w ill love you better.
Sandman Story for Kiddies
<< I UST at times 1 cannot help be-
Ing naughty,” said the King of
the Clouds.
1 should say that
tnat was true all
right,” said Old Mau W eather as he
laughed.
"W ell, you help me, too. you know,”
said the King of the Clouds.
“O f course I do,” said Old Man
Weather. “And I get abused fo r It,
too. Ah, yes, my friend. 1 do not get
so much praise when I play with you
In fact, I am scolded more than you
are.
"One hears far more scolding about
the W eather than about the Itain It
self.”
“ W ell," said the King o f the Clouds,
“it is quite worth the scolding."
"Yes,” Old Man Weather agreed, “It
Is."
"W ell," said the King of the Clouds,
“it was fun last n ig h t My children
and grandchildren ran races all along
the streets— dashing so hard aud so
fast— and rushing along.
"People said we were coming down
In sheets. O f course we w e re n 't We
don't need any bed linen.
But we
were coming down good and fast and
the races did become exciting.
“Then some one said It looked as
though all the rain were trying to get
somewhere, for we were hurrying
along so fast—Just skipping wildly
over the pavements.
“W e’ve all been having a frolic, cer
tainly,
even
though
we've
been
naughty.”

T he passion for violent melodrama
on the stage and the film causes won
der only In people who know very
little of the lives of others.
T he little shop girl to whom one
day Is exactly like another, who goes
the same round of duties, with per
haps a dance on;e or twice a week
needs some sort o f excitem ent
W ithout It her life would be hardly
worth living.
There Is drama and tragedy and
comedy In life— und when It la faith
fully mirrored on the stage, or de
scribed In the newspapers It has abuu
dant spectators and readers.
For this reason the motion picture,
which Is more euslly brought to the
people than any other torn» of drama,
ought to confine Itself to an attempt
to portray the exciting things In life,
without taw dry claptrap, nnd wildly
Imagined situations.
It Is true that lids may nol be al
present necessary In order to get au
diences.
There are millions o f people In the
world who w ill go to see any sort of
a picture that comes to the nearest
theater, for the lack o f anything
better.
But I f there were less Imitation of
life and more reflection o f life the
crowds would come Just the same, and
they would be far more unlikely to
get weary of what they see.

do that. Oh, he Is fine In that game."
"Yes, you’re a splendid pair for

then you have all your families to
help you.
"W ell, well, to think only the day
before the river nearby was so cnlin
and the opiioslle shore looked so near
to those who were on the other side,
and ihe river and the shore were ta lk

thing anti another.
"Then the day before that every
thing was so bright and clear and Hie
colors were so blue nlong the river
and It looked as though It were never
going to rain."
“ W ell," said the King o f the Clouds,
"1 must say that I didn't know two
days ago or a day ago what I was
going to do. It was one o f those love,
ly parties oue gets up on the spur of
the moment, which menns that they're
parties suddenly begun.”
“ Yes," said Old Man Weather, "and
people were out In I heir fine clothes
and their good huts aud their best
shoes and you surprised them— and
didn't stop ns though Prince Shower
were managing filings."
"Prince Shower Is different from
you, King of Ihe Clouds."
“ Yes," agreed (ho King of the
Clouds, “ he Is.
Prince Shower gels
rather tired of doing anything for very
long al a time.”
"I'm different from t h a t Very d if

the people a surprise parly, too— well,
that, too, adds to my naughtiness and
I was thoroughly naughty thia lust

"W h a t’s that?” whistled Mr. Wind.

And when he henrd what It wns that

of being angry he was proud and stuck

with great pride.
