The Two Hughes
There are two Charles Evans Hughes, one "existed,
withered, and died before the secretary of state was ever
born that was the Hughes of the insurance investigation
and governor of New York state, the other is the self-right-
ous. sane and safe supreme court justice, presidential can
didate and secretary of state, says Oswald Garrison Villard,
editor of The Nation in the current issue of his paper.
Of the departed and lamented Hughes. Mr, Villard
says :
If the term Bolshevik had been Invented then the business com
munity would have applied it to Charles E. Hughes. ... II he was
not accused of advocating free love, it was merely an oversight. . . .
He was holier-than-thou: he was "Charles the Baptist'; he was the 'ani
mated feather-duster'; he was a Pecksniff; he was that awlul thing, a
reformer with morals and principles.
Of the Hughes, however, who resigned from the su
preme court to run for president, Mr. Villard says:
It was not the same man at all, tt was a changeling who wore the
name. . . . Wall street after a brief period rallied to him; with Its
extraordinary Intuition It sensed the change long before others did and
realized that it had nothing further to fear from the man who had once
defied the most powerful forces in American business life.
The greatest degradation Mr. Hughes suffered says
Mr. Villard, was when:
"Charles the Baptist", the flaming apostle of personal righteousness
In public life, accepted the Invitation of President Harding to enter the
crookedest cabinet that has ever disgraced the United States of America.
There he sat, the brilliant and able associate of, to put it mildly, the
weakest and most vulgar of presidents, of Daugherty, of Fall, and oi the
Denby who the former associates of Mr. Hughes on the supreme court
branded as recreant to his trust. What an Irony of fatel ... Of
course, he was not one to Join the cabinet poker parties with the Ohio
gang; he shared their drinks no more than their cards. But few can
measure adequately the blow that tt must have been to the pride of this
extremely proud man to know the true character of the cabinet at the
head of which he sat on the right hand of the president. Never once
has he, however, referred it. Nor. as far as I can recoil, has he ever
scored faithless public servants In Uie abstract.
The leading republican candidate for the presidency, the
Hughes of today, is characterized by Mr. Villard thus:
Against Mr. Hughes' armor of solf-rtglUeousncss facts strike as use
lessly as the arrows of old against the armor of the Crusaders. Others
may fall; others near him may steal and take $100,000 bribes in black
bags, and still others prove recreant to the trust placed In them bv US.
000,000 people, but Charles E. Hughes stands up straight and strong and
adamant, and lust, and good so good one lones for one little touch of
human frailty, one little tiny proof never afforded that underneath
nis pousned and suave exterior, within that Intellectual machine, di
rected with completest self-control, there Is an organ known as a heart.
One wonders whether what Is needed here Is not the lubricity of a few
auiipie sins.
The people, particularly those of the more outspoken
and freer from convention west, sensed this lack of human
frailities in Mr. Hughes. His cold and hard exterior, his
metallic perfection accounted for his lack of nnnnlnritv nnrl
his defeat, just as the human frailities and personal charm
oi me wen intentioncd Harding contributed to his popularity
and success.

Doris fumbled for a phrase to stem
his tide of eloquence. She dldnt
want Ivan making love to her. She
had no rain desire for conquest.
She was genuinely food of him as
a friend. She dldnt want to hurt
him.
"You mustn't say such things to

you to like me, to be my friend. But
that's all.-
He clasped his twltehlnj fingers
togetner tightly and Implored her
with tragic eyes.
"You must marryq me," he said
simply. "I cannot live without you.
It is unthinkable."
Aa gently as she could, Doris shook
her head.
"I can't marry you. Ivan. I'm aw
fully fond of you, but I don't love
you."
'You must love me" he insisted
with terrible earnestness In his
smoldering eyes. "You can't think
what you do to me when you tell
me that. You rob me of the rUi to
live. You take away my art. my
ambition. You silence the golden
melody which is the song of my soul.

NVRSINO IS DESIRABLE
PROFESSION
By William F. Howard, M. D Poea
tello, Idaho, Member Gorgas
Memorial
Of all the occupations open to the
young woman, nursing especially
preserves her charm and femininity
and at the same time prepares her
for the later duties commonly as
sumed by her sex. It opens up wide
and numerous fields, and affords an
intimate view of human activities
and a broad knowledge of life.
The nurse deals directly with
people of all kinds and meets the
conditions that have much to do
with all experiences. When she
later has a home of her own. she
has learned from experience numer
ous things that enable her to make
it a better home. Her knowledge
will be of use to herself and to her
neighbors, and a helpful neighbor Is
an endearment to any community.
The nurse who expects to devote
her life to her profession can look
forward to numerous positions as
head nurse that are free from long
sidewalk opposite her apartment
the mysterious stranger who watcn
ed her from afar.
But Count Romeo, coming down
the street some time later, noticed
htm. recognized him, and felt con
siderable uneasiness. In fact. In
stead of entering Doris' apartment.
as he had Intended, he strolled on
and entered a cafe at the comer.
From this vantage, he watched un
til the other man had gone away.
hours, free from giving personal at
tention to the patients' dally needs,
and free from all tliat might be
considered the drudgery of nursing.
There are positions as superintend
ents of nurses and superintendents
of hospitals that exercise the best
qualities of business and executive
fields for nurses such as welfare
work, public health nursing, special
posltioins In Institutions and In In
dustry, technicians, laboratory
workers, and the Instructor nurse
who always occupies a position that
is inspirational to beginners. .
This Is an appeal to young women
who expect to enter training, to
those who have not yet decided what
college work to pursue, and to par
ents cr friends who may advise such
young women to consider a nursing
career, to make sufficient prepara
tion before entering the hospital
training so that their later progress
may not be limited by lack of funda
mental knowledge.
Many universities and colleges ad mit
women to a prenursing course of
three years, and at the completion of
this, followed by a hospital training
course of two years, award a college
degree and a nurse's diploma. This
course gives the young woman the
advantages of college life and train
ing and magnifies her hospital
training. She can understand the
difficult medical subjects and the
problems of nursing. It Is a pre
paration that should enable a nurse
to rank high In her profession and
open to her opportunities Inaccess
ible to those mho nave not had such
preparation. It Is also a source of
satisfaction and usefulness and Joy
to her the rest of her llle.
DO NT SQUEEZE PIMPLES
By O. Van der Yelde, M. D. Holland.
Mich. Member Gorgas Memorial.
Would you cross a street while
blindfolded and with the red light
against you? Perhaps you would be
fortunate and the passing motorists
would be kind enough to avoid you.
However, ycur actions would Invite
serious danger. Just as dangerous Is
the unscrupulous squeezing of the
simple and apparently Innocent
pimples on the face. Perhaps nature,
like the kind motorist, will smile
upon you and you will get away
with It Nevertheless your actions
have courted serious consequences.
The ordinary pimple on the face
is a localized Infection which in it
self is harmless If properly treated.
Nature Is very kind and builds a
waU e round such infections, thereby
protecting the remainder of the
body However, when one squeezes a
pimple the protecting wall Is broken,
the surrounding healthy tissue Is
bruised, and an Ideal field Is creat
ed for the spread of infection. This
bruised tissue Is not only Ideal food
for germs to multiply on. but has
also lost Its normal resistance to the
growth of these germs. After a
pimple has been squeezed nature
still does her best and often builds
a second wall around the bruised
and Infected tissue, but then a thick
hard bunch fo-ms which may re
main permanent
This may be said of pimples any
where on the body. When they oc
cur on the face the danger Is In
creased, because the blood drainage
of the face above the lower Up Is
toward the' brain. What Increases
the danger Is that the veins lead
ing to the brain, in this area do not
have valves to hold back the Infection.
The nose normally harbors many
germs and occasionally a pimple
will occur within It following the
Injudicious pulling of harrs from
the nose. These hairs have a func
tion to perform. They strain the air
we breathe, thereby preventing for
eign articles from entering the nose.
Should this hair become too thick
and long, have It removed with
small shears. Do not practice pulling
them out. When an infection does
occur wlihln the nose, dp not hesi
tate to place yourself In the hands
of a competent physician.
Never squeeze a pimple anywhere
on the body Simply wait until a
small while head appears, then
sterilize a needle In a flame, prick
the white head and rub It off with
a clean handkerchief or towel. The
pimple will then subside and will
not spread nor leave a hard bunch
under the skin.

An Absurd Law
Congress, obeying the behest of moral uplifters who be
lieve that humanity can be purified by sumptuary statutes,
passed a law against prize fight films. Under it, numerous
prosecutions have resulted, bootlegging of films flourished,
and vastly more people consequently witness the fights in the
. movies, than ever before.
t : A federal judge in New York has recently clarified the
situation by declaring that the presentation of films cannot
be barred under the federal law, only their transportation,
and therefore only those who have engaged in the traffic of
smuggling the films can be prosecuted. The law reads as
follows:
fat -To deposit or cause to be deposited In the United Stales mall for
mailing or delivery, or to deposit or cause to be deposited with any ex
press company or other common carrier or carriage, or to send or carry
from one State or Territory of the United 8tates or the District of Co
lumbia, or bring or to cause to be brought Into the United States from
abroad, any film or other pictorial representation of any prize-fight or
encounter of pugilists, under whatever name, which Is designated to' be
used or may be used for purposes of public exhibition.
(b) To take or receive from the malls or any express company or
OUier common carrier, with Intent to sell, distribute, circulate or exhibit
any matter or thing herein forbidden to be riennsiteri fr n.iih. rf-n...
or carriage in interstate commerce.
,uTh? law was passctl na 8 rcsu,t of the "(titntion follow-
... v,iii,,.jni.u's ngiii wnen it was icared that race
riots would follow. Hut the law has boon upheld in the courts,
despite repeated efforts to declare it unconstitutional or to
circumvent it by subterfuge.
, As'nK as it is on the statute books, the law must be
enforced but it is a silly law and should be repealed. As long
.... .. iu laiiv ,iuK contests in nil parts or the country,
it is absurd to forbid those who cannot afford to attend the
bouts from viewing the films of the fights.

Once cosily established In a corner

. It was a trifle early for the tea
hour and the little cat was dimly
lit. The bleak, grey mist of the win

rather grimy window panes. Doris
and the poet had their tea in a de
sorted corner or rather, Doris did.

had selected the daintiest morsel
from a tray of French pastries for
his delectation, but he pushed It
aside untested.
His melancholy eyes stared som
