Thosp were the days in which the feme of Ludlow was echoed in car toons, stage pags and small talk. It became the aristocrat among prisons and incarceration; emit erred u certain distinction. To begin with Ludlow has only faintly resembled n jail. It is of red brick, with huge windows that arc screened, rather than barred. It might readily have been converted into a gentleman's club. There were tables for dominoes and checkers and chess; a court for hand hall and exercise, and iu the days of Hose Taylor, there was a cuisine that nmde men wish to linger long after their terms had expired. After 35 years as jnil cook, ltosn retired recently at he age of 8. It had been her pride to make C hirst mas nnd Thnnksgiving dinners such as hus bands had never known at home. If, upon the holidays, their minds were made it impossible to transport ma terial and troops under proper condi tions. Result Certain. Although the attack by Abd-e!-Krim's forces are regarded as de termined and serious, ilure is no ap prehension, as t the result. Tht Freuce forces, military experts point mil gut through to Fez -0 years ago. waou all Morocco was against them. Today all Mor ceo is pacified except the territory of the Hitf and when tne time couipk for Marshal lvautey to order his columns across the Oners ha river, the French authorities predict that Abd-el-Krim will find it convca ient to retreat as fast as he can. , The plan of the Hiffiaus seem to bi to invade the territory f tribe which have submitted to Fnuue .tud to induce these tribes to revel or el-e ( pillage their ci untry. In most cds-., these tribes wi.l have m other count than to join the rebels, it is believed. It is admitted that while Abd-ell Krim tan m apparent chance of ever reaching FVz, he will be able to give the French c nsidernble trouble, necessitating strengthening of Kreni forces throughout Morocco at heavy expense iu order to master the revolt. ins CUKSWF.l.L.

Within its cells or rather, its cltibrooms there gathered in its last weeks of life a harpist, n scenarist, n dentist, n man who discovered he could not afford both n wife mid n lady friend, etc. I!ut these are mere shadows of the picieer personalities who left behind the oft -quo ted motto: "Millions for defense lawyers, but not one cent of tribute." Was it not the grat Theodore Rob erts himself, "grand old man" of the alimony club as well n of the movies, who Bounder! the club's slogan many years ago. "I'll die here rather than pay alimony," or words to that effect. To this day it remains the bnttlecry of belligerent ex-husbands.

Thus passed the arduous days, dur ing which musicians composed; sculp tors sculpted; movie actors grew waxed mustaches; writers wrote nnd marriage seemed u far-off und terri ble dream. Hut rimes changed. It got fo that not only rebels entered the dlub. There came men who actually could not pay iilimony and the longer they stayed the less were their chances. This rubbed much-of the aristocratic veneer from the trnditiim. Also laws changed and, after serving one term, it was held that non-payers could 1p thrown back again and again if they d'dn't try to pay. So the alimony club gradually lost standing, nnd the class of its patrons rose nnd fell. Now, that it is about to pass, it so happens that the old aristocrutie tra ditions are again in the ascendant, lias it not Seep Marsler, the harpist, Louis Sherwin. a scenarist nnd others of profess:onal standing?

To go forward on the same "broadening i lines," that have marked its develop ment thus far, with its emphasis on equal opportunity nnd treatment for all its peoples, must be the nation's aim, President Cooliilge declared in nn ! address here yesterday at the laying of the cornerstone of the Jewish com munity center. Made up of so many diverse ele ments, the president said, the nation, in steering its future course, "must cling to those fundamentals that have been tried and proved as but tresses of national solidarity." From whatever part of the world the Jewish community of the United States has drawn for its increase, the president continued, its members have always been "eager to adapt themselves to our institutions, and to take "their full part as citizens in building and sustaining the nation." Louis Marshall, of New York, who spoke after the president, defended the Jewish race against charges of "internationalism," made by Professor Phill:p Marshall Rrown of Princeton at a -ecent niee'ing of the American Society of International Law.
