A ride up Fifth avenue on the top of a motor bus, skirting Central Park and then over to 90 Riverside Drive, late on a hot afternoon, again impressed us with the unreality of the New York spectacle. We don't believe there is anything quite like it in the entire world. The towering buildings not one or two, not a few score, but literally thou sands; the stream of motor cars reaching from curb to curb, barely moving and then only by jerks; the crowds of people swarming everywhere, in the stores and out, and seeping across the avenue between the cars regardless of the traffic signals, to a rank outsider from the Pacific, coast it doesn't seem like a city, in which people live, and sleep, and eat, fall in love, get married and raise families, go to market and buy a bunch of carrots or a leg of iamb, but like something from a book. As we started, the sun setting behind that soaring skyline of steel ana stone, to me norm, tower Hiier tower rising to ine ciouus, we decided it wasn't New York at all, but a page torn out of one of JIaxfield Parrish's pictorial excursions in the land of make-believe. The whole thing is too sensational, too theatrical, too extreme, to be true ! Quite a sensation has been the charge of Christopher Morley, that 0. 0. Mclntyro is a plagiarist. In this evening's World Telegram Christopher on the front page, fires his shaft at with devastating effect. When I have an unfailing consolation. O. O. Sfclntyre likes my stuff Then he goes on to print extracts from O. 0., in his recent publication "Tho Big Town" almost identical phrases from patiently for the next issue of Mclntyre's comeback will be. Uud will be smart enough to An interesting book could be York in the last quarter century. Approximately that period has elapsed since we walked along 14th street, from 7th avenue to Broadway. Then there were some excellent clion houses and saloons on J4tli street, one Oennan beer parlor we recall in particular. There was one respectable theatre, attractive book stores, also some second-hand stores, pawn shops, and nickelode ons. Now we could find practically nothing but stores devoted to bankrupt sales of women's apparel. We figured out the reason was Klein's who started in one room with a sort of second-hand dress store for women and now occupies two large buildings, extending over an entire block, with blue and white signs painted all over it, and facing on the Bolshevik meeting place Union Square. "Klein's on the square", "Open Thurs day and Tuesday to 8:45 p. m." "Smart women now shop here" "Money back within five days", etc etc. ' Within, summer dresses, and cloaks were hanging row after row, mile and mile, an army of women milling about, in vari ous degrees of undress, prices of dresses from 1(3 to $5, and a surprising scarcity of clerks. Klein, they say, has made a for tune by buying cheaply in wholesale quantities and selling the samo way. Opinions differ as to whether ho excels as a buyer or a salesman the truth probably is he is exceptional in both. A stroll up 14th street indicates every storekeeper in that part of tho city is trying to do the same thing. As usual they are too late. Women interested in this sort of merchandise go to Klein's and particularly during a depression nine out of ten women are. Wo are rather amused to see tho late and unlamented Blue Eagle plastered all over the place, inside and out. We have no evidence but it is difficult to sea how women's dresses can be sold for $3 without sweat-shop labor coming into tho picture at some stage of the performanoe. For they aren't merely print dresses, printed aprons and slip-overs, the one clerk we con tacted assured us they were RKAL dresses selling for no less than ten or fifteen dollars, some 25 and $.'!0 anvwhere else. This may or may not be true, but eertainlv there must be real values there, or the place wouldn't be packed on a hot June afternoon, with acquisitive, bargain hunting and perspiring womanhood. An we roamed about we concluded, that if the ladies place any value upon time and energy expended, the final investment, may not be such a paltry figure after all. R. W R NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O.O.

J . naturally enough, gives no hint whether she ts 16 or 00. but it doesn't matter at all. I don't care what a woman's chrono logical age may be, what concerns me Is how old she feels. Let me feel of her artery, you know, take her pulse In that knowing way a wise doo has, and while I'm pretending to count It and judge the tension and force and so on I'm really determining the texture and elasticity of her skin and the condition of her hair and the presence or absence of the arcus sen Ills In her lovely eyes, and pretty soon I have a very good idea how long she Is likely to live, A man Is as old as his arteries and a woman Is as old as her skin. I have reached the conclusion In my own mind that arteriosclerosis Is a nu tritional deficiency. This Is Just my notion. No one Is compelled to ac cept It or even to take It seriously. By the same line of reasoning I Infer that these crowsfeet and other wrin kles spearing In the skin before one Is reaiiy old enough to deserve them, are likewise a nutritional deficiency. Especially vitamin G deficiency, but vitamins never occur singly In nature and I believe It Is always more effi cacious to take a good ration of all the vitamins whenever there Is rea son to suspect a deficiency of any of them.

Still, I am not convinced In my own mind that the Iron alone produces all the good results of such treatment In such cases. I suspect the gain in health, vitality and ap pearance may be due to the Increased Intake of vitamins In the more lib eral variety and quantity of foods the patient takes under the effects of the Iron, or something like that.

CHEERING news?"" Well, for the present, perhaps. But dont expect too much of the fu ture. The deficit is smaller than ex pected THIS year, because emergency spending has been slower than esti mated. Next year, which will be ELEC TION YEAR, spending will be much faster. There will be votes to be in fluenced then. Nc OTE, please, that the deficit for the present fiscal year Is nearly three and a half BILLION dollars.

THIS writer, who tries to keep up with the times but finds himself hopelessly out of date In a lot of ways, finds It Impossible to believe, no matter how hard he tries, that either nations or Individuals can spend themselves rich. Editorial Comment Mr. I.ampman's Book. Many readers of this page, having admired and followed the writings of our colleague, Ben Hur Lampman, during more than a dozen years, will welcome the word that he Is author of a full-length work of fiction, issued this past week end by the Metropolitan Press. They will be eag.:r to know whether he has been able to sustain through the Intrica cies and length of a book that rhythm and richness of Imagery which characterize his essays and which make his editorial writings, we believe, unlaue In America. Nor will they be disappointed. In "Here Comes Somebody." the fantasy of 'Lisbeth and Jumbles, Mr. Lamp man's rich style has been extended to the narrative form, and the poetry of It, while less crowded than in the essays. In the end becomes even more effective. It was said of a great French composer of music that most composers did what they could with music, but this one did what he would. Mr. Lampman is deserving of the same compliment where words are concerned. He commands them, where most of us are commanded by them. And In the book the poetry ts only the covering. The adventures of 'Lisbeth and Jumbles are as va ried, with as deep a meaning, as those of Alice when she went travel ing in Wonderland. We can think of no other book with which "Here Comes Somebody" might rightly be compared. The rest we must leave the readers to discover for them selves.
