ROBERT WOOD AND HER YOUNG SON, ROBERT WOOD, JR. In the Social Whirl By Jsma Pooly I DO hot enjoy reading after Mr. Galsworthy. He makes me think too much, and I do hot get the recreation I crave, when I read his Yet, I feel about him exactly as I did the teachers I had when I was a child. They made me impatient when tney raised tne warning ringer ana toia tne the day would come when I would regret I did not know tbe lessons they were trying to teach me.

My conscience touched me even then about it. I knew they were speaking the truth, but the spirit to enjoy would lead me on. and hiding a novel with the cover of a history, I turned a deaf books' that I liked that led to 'day Mr. Galsworthy, with his finger of warning raised high, cornea to teach know and that now.

When the war cloud broke I went back poetry and read Byron's "The Eve Before the Battle of Waterloo," I found myself repeating over and rer the first lines: "There was a sound revelry by night," and Belgium's capital had gathered there her beauty and her chivalry. in Thackeray's "Vanity Fair," describ the same event.

HISTORY REPEATS. "History repeats Itself," I thought brbmldtcally. and the world is oh the eve of another and maybe greater crisis. But Galsworthy's "Mob" came again, and literally fettered my thoughts. I found myself reading his scathing truth about "crowd influence" and "crowd conscience." The words of "Stephen More," the hero of the "Mob," frighten" one when he cries: "Yon mob are the moat contemptible thing under the tun! When you walk the street.

His was the great cry of civilization's demand for peace, but tbe mob spirit permeated the Ufa of the government. The crowd demanded war and war was declared. 'Stephen More" dared to face the "mob" and cry for peace. A woman of the streets In the mob reached out and stabbed him to the heart. And then comes the act in the drama which describes so clearly the principle of "crowd Influence" "crowd conscience" these ltnea telling It: "The birds are twittering cheerfully In trees whose boughs caat their careaalng shadow over a bronse statue.

On Its pedestal Is the Inscription: 'Erected to the Memory of Stephen More, Faithful to His The same had erected a atatue to "Stephen whom they murdered. A QUESTION. But why all of this under tne caption. "In the Social Whirl," somebody nowhere is the mob spirit more clearly, more Intelligently, probably more delicately, expressed than In the element of people whose incidental activities are reflected in the "social whirl." Take them as meaning that element of aociety upon whom Balzac declares the carrying force of higher civlllza tion depends. Consider them as the people who have had the advantage of universities and colleges, and travels the people whose positions have drawn them Into the lives and atmosphere where men and women are supposed to think and lead.

The mob spirit doea not spare them. It is no respecter of elements. Crowd influence and crowd conscience is no respecter of persons and places. The mob spirit expresses itaelf as boldly in the exclusive salon, where woman presides, as It does in the great university, where the world teachers are. The mob spirit does not eat and sleep and live always in hovels In the slums and in the street.

It reaches high places, as it did the other day, when the mob turned on the man who was called the, greatest of world rulers the kaiser and demanded war of him. Great and stalwart as he Is, hl9 face furrowed with warrior lines, his hand one of the strongest that ever grasped a sword, his orders the very God word to his soldiers: he was as helpless before the mob of his subjects crying for war as "Stephen More" was when the weakest of ones In the street mob spurning his peace cry stabbed him to THE PEACE CRY. It was because he cried "Peace" that young Juares. the editor of Human lte, was assassinated in Paris last week by the mob. It was the mob party against another, in trying the Caillaux case.

The mob in its din of day after day the scenes at the. that Eugene Brieux was not writing Robe Rouge." but to write It over again and make it stronger still. And the mob the stand now and pitilessly gloat over what they believe must be the fall of one whose very personality extended its force and masculine charm over all nations. "Why, oh. why, ask the men and the women who think, this anti German spirit?" "I am aimased to hear and to see It." And for the moment, the world, under the Inevitable crowd spirit and influence, forgets what Germany has meant as a nation.
