"should be broadly extended and

-We do not believe or wish to bear

He reiterated that America's aim
was "a policy of peace through reason

two months the outstanding interest
of Thaw's mature life is a sharp con
trast to F.velyn Nesbit.
When she is on her job at tha C-(
tillian Gardens at I-ynhrook, lxng
Island, she is a shimmy dancer of the
Hilda 15 ray type. In fact ah first
made the town notice her as one of
Hilda's girls in a Broadway night club,
and succeeded Gilda as a principal en
tertainer. Off the job. she is a graceful young
girt with black hair, wise blue eyes,
firm thin lips and a subdued costume
enlivened by a gorgeaus bracelet. She
has seen euough of the town's play
boys to have a background of judg
ment when she says Thaw is excep
tionally intelligent. And it can be said
of her, likewise, that she is intelligent
beyond the fluff of dancing girl con
versation, that she has dignity and a
superior personality. Her appeal now
is primarily to the spirit.

Fawn Gray's table for two hours.
talked to her, danced with her and en
joyed the charm of her company, is
ready to take off bis hat to Harry
Thaw as a discriminating "picker."
Thaw's latest romance ii pattern
ed on a plot which fiction writers
would avoid as incredible. When it
first became known that he was back
again on Broadway, there were many
versions of the meeting, but this oue
is authentic.
About three months ngo when Miss
(tray danced in a big charity benefit
performance here, her picture whs
sent around to the papers aa pub
licity for the show. Thaw saw it.
From his southern retreat he wrote
a letter, telling his admiration for her
beauty and complimenting her upon
giving her talent to a good cause.
She laughed and left the letter un-j
answered. I
In about a week she received R I
telephone message - from Thaw, who i
had come eagerly to New York and '
was using the name of Fvans. He
located her at the Club Tabariu. j
where she was dancing. That evening
he descended upon the price, bearing
in his vchi pocket an introdietory gift.
It was the bracelet, n flexihle plati

his eyes remained fixed upon bar.
whether she sat at his table or moved
about the room.
As April and May went by, he told
the pretty girl of his farm in Vir
ginia, a home awaiting her. He inti
mated that he would like the bracelet
to serve as a marriage engagement
token.
When Thaw "falls' for a girl, it is
a hard full. His years nnd his impris
onment have not handicapped his ar
dor in pursuing beauty. This ;Wn
proved when Texas (iiiinan gave awny
tho secret of his presence anil grasp
ed priceless front page publicity for
her cafe.
Thaw came up to New York and
hastened out to the Castillinn Gar
dens. Miss Gray wus there dancing.
So was a party of her friends. After
her program appearance, she left

contained in the annual address of
George A. Palmiter of Hood Hirer,
state grange master, which waa de
livered yesterday. 1
Attacka upon the Dennis resolution
proposing a state constitutional
amendment abolishing inheritance
taxes, and upon the method of elect

representatives and the president of

He charged that if the Dennis pl.in
is adopted the state will he flOU,-

Legislature Rapped.
Discussing the method of electing
officers of the legislative bodies, he
charged that bartering of votes for
speaker ami president of the smdte
in exchange for committee chairman
ships and committee berths amounted
to form of bribery.
He urged that (be grangers rally fi
nit tee at the same time that other
committees are appointed and' that

committees."
The report declared that the fu
lure of Ongou to a large degree de
pends on what disposition was made
of water power.
The report paid a tribute to .Sis

Spence, and Treasurer Hirschberg,
nancially to the vupport of measures! who were among the grangers wba
they endorse, declaring that interest died during the past year. Memorial

Romantic June, with its
weddings and graduations,
brings many urgings to the
American heart to be off to some
distant place.
Why not go, when the campus,
calls to the colors, when sons and
daughters want your presence at
commencements, when you feel
the stir to be somewhere else, as
audience or actor?
With long distance to serve,
you can be wherever you want
to he. There are 16,000,000
telephones in the nation-wide
communications service built
for your use, One of them is
always near to send back deci
sions and desires to home or
office, or carry words of love or
greeting to places that call your
thoughts.
The romance of life is in the
air, and the great romance of
modern days-universal telephone
service-is yours to further it.
