' This is a laudable purpose, and when politics have been duly vvrifled, the nations of the worldTwlll have "clvtlixed war" and the "refined hootchie-kootchte." Pol itics can never be purified because those without are overloaded wit 11 ennobling virtues, high powered sanctimoniousness, and a meek spirit ' while those within are an unreeene-t-ate pack of sinners, saturated with natural born cussednesa and heredi tary onerynesav , I.

One injection of polities will make a hig her ass out of a niau than a barrel of moonshine. What things n politician won't say and tlo and see, ten minutes after the virus has redly started to work! Some pood people think we have a sober country because of the Volstead act. Far from it. This country will never be sober, until some political Volstead arises ami makes it illegal for any American citizen to have more than one-half of one per cent of politics in him. Look at them! The political dopesters are as familiar sights now as the village drunkards used t be. Only instead of not heing able to walk straight, they can't talk straight. Instead of seeing snakes j.ml pink Dinasaurs. they see thumb screws and gibbets, armed inva sions and strange uprisings, (toothless gracious! What don't they see! ' ' ' We used to wonder how the old boys mixed so much beer with their business and were able to accomplish anything; now we won der how the new boys mix so much politics with their business and accomplish anything. They used to waste half their time talking over the bar, now they waste three-quarters talking over the last election. And the political bug can shatter the best reputation. No one is proof against it. Your best friend as "Pop" intimates, may knife you it he happens to be under its influence. In all seriousness it i very like strong; drink. It makes perfectly honest men lie like pirates, it makes the mild, vicious; the wise foolish; the bad, good; and the good. bad. It turns everything upside down, topsy turvey, outside in and inside out. . Look at Charley Hall. He is a very likeable man, and a good sport. If you beat hint in n close game of tennis he would he the first to congratulate you and wish you well. Hut observe the same man with the political virus working. Pat terson, Bean, White, they have all congratulated Olcott and pledged their support but Charley Hall sits nnim. Heateu in a fair fight, he won't play. If the official count won't "put him over, then he wants a. recount, and if a recount won't do the trick, then he wauts to split the Republican party and run an independent candidate. In other words here is politics making a good sport into a poor one, a good loser into a poor loser. "Pop's" right. "Polities makes queer creatures out of the best of men."

I LIKE to sit by a spreading tree day after day you may see me there! and read of perils on land and sea, of heroes bold and of damsels fair. I read my books till the long day cools' and the shadows lengthen on field and flat; I see men pass with their golfing tools, and I wonder what they can sec in that. My friend Jim Jerk has a gorgeous wad, and he goes away on his ten-year tramps; he sends me cards from strange towns abroad, and let ters sealed with unholy stamps. And he might sit 'neath a statelj' yew, with a good warm book and a stogie fat; but off he travels to Timbuctoo I wonder what h can see in that I And some go off to the sombre woods, to picnic, there on the grass to lie, too eat stale doughnuts and kindred goods, and get their feet in the custard pie; I see them go with their baskets big, to the dark abode of the bug and bat, where the skeeters skect and the chiggers chig I wonder what they can see in that ! The joy of one makes another sick, the fun of James is a grief to me; give me a volume that hag a kick, a tale of perils on land and seal Then James may off to the jungle speed to chase a tiger or other cat; I'll watch him go as I sit and read, and wonder what he can see in that. "Fascination" at Page Everyone agrees that "Fascination" now showing at the Page theatre Is the best picture Mae Murray has ever made. And in it sho does the best work of her career. If there ate any who do not know what these state ments convey In the way of estimating entertainment value, it can be added for the benefit of this small group that 'Fascination" Is a picture of uncom mon quality with a iosltlve popular appeal of powerful proportion. Mae Murray In her role of the Incor rigible flapper whose creed Is "follow your Impulses," which was Inherited In the blood of her Spanish father' family. She Is called upon to enact an unusually gay young debutante utterly devoid of repose. Those who are even slightly familiar with Miss Murray's work will realize that this sort of role exactly fits the star. And a mere statement that she perform a dance at one period In a costume de signed In her Justly celebrated style for this sort of thing conveys a book full. To say that she is picturesque and appealing Is ultra conservatism. fascination" Is mounted on set tings that are as picturesque and ar tistically designed as anything that has been witnessed in some lime. 5 In what city were I'oe's "Haven," Key's "Star Spangled Maimer" and Randall's "Maryland.
