Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur I'erry Tho annual fog 1h nKuin In our midst, and tho first 110 days arc the worst, i Milk wiiRons go ho fust on Hellbent avenue tlmt a pint of cream becomes a iioiiikI of butter. ""IIH surrender of d 'Amiimzio concludes one of the most dramatic J- nix I picturesque episodes of tliis generation. Tliiwe who feel tlmt only the sprrtiiculiir death of the insurgent poet uoulil render the mclo-ilranm nrlistically complete, fail to comprehend the phyehol o:y of the principal aetor. , D'Aniiiiii.io is primarily an artist of temperament, of the Latin leniperainent. AVith him symbols are realities. That scratch oil his arid dome, from a shell splinter sufficiently ami much more viviiliy lypil'i"'d the hero's coup de iracc, than any more realistic ceremony, involving the services of a sordid and unimaginative undertaker. And in d'Annunzio's scenario, he must he both the corpse and the grave digger. The details can he left 1o no bungling hand. If riddled by machine gun builds, he could have executed a high dive from Finnic 'n Campanile, mid satisfied that the climax had been well done, could have directed the final obsequies including the military salute, the mere fact of holding' his rendezvous with death would not have deterred him. Hut there were physical obstacles, which even his genius for creative realism could not overcome. 80 be allowed the cranial scratch to suffice, just as the Kaiser, instead of leading bis forces to u glorious death, allowed 'rheumatism and wood chopper cramp to suffice. Deallt to a sell'-driiinati.ed egotist is so, well not only in artistic but disappointing. ' : " ' a LEGISLATING HONESTY.

ONU sport my jaded spirit Ihrilis, and warms me through and through ; it is the sport of paying, bills when those. same bills arel due. AW other pastimes lose their charm as years roll on their way, and old men, viewing with alarm, observe their domes are gray. Each month I lake my- fountain pen and make the green ink flow, and write out checks for iron men to every man 1 owe. And alter that 1 push my car athwart tho spangled lea, or whack the golf halls near and far, or practice archery. 'Home limes I .make. ,1 high ascent, in airships or balloons, hut first 1 pay the grocery gent who sold me wholesome prunes. .Sometimes the polo graft I try, and make a record neat, hut first I pay the hutch ing guy who sold inn useful meat, , , Wteu I have paid my monthly bills I feel inure, honest pride than if I'd scored a hundred kills where ducks were sliol, anil died.
