TREAT VETERANS GENEROUSLY It should not be necessary to go to law to obtain justice for Civil 'War veterans at the hands of the govern ment.

Not only should Justice be given them freely, but they should re ceive, too, a measure of generosity. According to the commander of the department of the Potomac, G. A. war veterans have been discharged from the civil service and others are fearful of a like fate; so It Is planned protect them by suit based upon the law of August 23, 1912, which oeciflcally forbids the discharge from civil service of war veterans with good records. Postmaster General Burleson, from whose department veterans are alleged to have been re moved, Is reputed as saying that as he construes the law It has not been vio lated.

Surely this Is a law which should be most liberally construed, with the veteran receiving the benefit of every doubt. If there is not "pie" enough to go around without disturbing the many left of the men who fought to preserve the Union fifty years ago, certainly not enough to constitute a burden upon the treasury, and a lew years will see the problem of the veteran buried. But, in their few remaining days, this great government can afford to be generous in its treat' appear in a court of law seeking to justify dismissing them from office. While the war veteran soon will cease to trouble, the present agitation may well serve to forcibly Impress Congress again with the imperative necessity of providing a pension system for employes of the civil service who have grown old and become in capacitated in the government's em ploy. The need of a pension system has been recognized for years, and it is a melancholy reflection on the gov ernment of the United States that it.

Is so far behind the governments of Europe and the great corporations of this country, which it is so fashionable to bait and berate In Congress, with respect to providing for its worn out employes. BRIDES AND GRADUATES In five days May will merge into June, the month of blushing brides and happy graduates. A countless number will then turn their thoughts to weddings and to school commencement exercises. It is estimated that in a million or more households next month thoughts of wedding marches, orange blossoms. ana yarns or wnite veiling Will vie with others relating to graduation gowns, essays, premiums, medals and diplomas.

The output of graduates this year will be very large. Owing to increase in population the schools turn out a larger number of pupils each twelve months. That is not the only reason, however. School training is becoming more general and popular. Parents have learned the advantages of giving their children good educations.

Already the newspapers of the country are printing the names of graduates and telling us who will be salutatorians, valedictorians, class historians, class prophets and the like. We are approaching a very happy season when thoughts will dwell on pleas. ant thing3 connected with the future of millions of our young people.

It is good to read in this expert account. however, that Pennsylvania is not In fested with poisonous reptiles to the extent that some people, have sup posed. This ought to ease the popu lar mind on an important subject, but it will be just as well for those who have occasion to travel about in the mountains to keep something of a lookout.

The headline attraction, of course, is the popular Virginia Man, formerly leading woman with the Or pheum Players, and later seen at this theatre in two excellent sketches, "An All Night Session" and "A Stormy Hour." A big crowd of Virginia Mann followers and admirers were on hand playlets, and the roles that the popu lar little actress portrayed were not the particular characters that gave Miss Mann the opportunites to show her ability as a big actress. Th sketch that is presented at the Hippo drome this week is far superior to former efforts, and Miss Mann is re ally delightful in a difficult role.

The act, "An Opportune Time," is a sen sational dramatic playlet, concerning a society Raffles, who succeeds in falling in love in spite of his mania for jewels. A clever adventuress is in league with the police and she catches the fox In a trap. However, at the climax of the drama a very unusual incident happens and the gentlemanly crook escapes.

Both men are peers in the balancing game and were applauded time and again fpr their clever and difficult work.

Fads and Fancies of Woman's Realm "THEIR MARRIED LIFE" HELEN HAS REAL SYMPATHY WITH THE WEAKLY, YIELDING NATURE OF ANOTHER WOMAN BY MABEL HERBERT CRXER, "Who?" Helen repeated it sharply, "Miss Wilson, ma'am," the hallboy's voice blurred through the 'phone.

"Oh. Miss Wilson!" wtth a pleased note of recognition. "Send her right up." A moment" later Nora ushered In a young woman in a plain blue serge. suit that Just escaped being shabby. "Why, Laura, what's happened?" "You're not very cordial," cynically.

"I'm making an afternoon call. It's Saturday, you know. Even a fifteen dollar stenographer can make an oc casional call on Saturday." Helen made her comfortable on the couch with a couple of pillows, then drew up a chair beside her and wait ed for the confidence that she knew would come. For a moment Laura leaned back with closed eyes as though it was good Just to relax. Then she threw out her arms with a nervous, desperate ges "Oh, it Isn't fair! It isn't fair! There isn't anything fair about it!" "Is It about your work gently, Laura nodded.

"Oh, I've been such a fool such a consummate little fool! I had a chance to leave to get more money and less work and I didn't do it! I let Mr. Richards persuade me into staying." "But aren't they going to give you more? You said you thought they would this spring. Her Promise 'Not a cent. He won't even get a girl In to help me. I've been doing all my own work and Miss Lang's.

too, since she left I'm killing myself there," desperately, "and yet I've promised to stay." "But why, If yon had another of fer?" "Why? I don't know why!" exci tedly. "I must have been Insane. I went into his private office this morn ing to say that I was going to leave, but when I came out I'd promised to go on without a cent Increase. Oh, it makes me wild to think about it!" "Did you tell him about the other offer?" Yes; but he said I'd never be happy in a big office. I wouldn't have the independence.

I'd have more people over me, and he knew I'd regret changing." 'Then, if he's so anxious to keep you, why doesn't he give you more?" "He says they can't afford It;" bit terly; "that business is bad, that the war's upsetting everything. But if I'll stay on until things are better" with a skeptical shrug. "What will he pay you then?" "He didn't say. He didn't commit himself in any way. I'm Just to go on and leave it to his generosity to do whatever he pleases.

Oh, he simply wound me around his finger!" "When did all this happen today?" "Just befoie we closed at 1 o'clock. I went in to give him a week's notice; to say that unless he pay me more I was going with Briggs Carter. Oh, I don't know how he did it, but he somehow made me feel that I'd better stay where I was. I'd left the offl.ee before I realized howweak ly yielding'Id been. Then I hjegan to think of the things I'd meant to say.

I'd made up a little speech befone I went In, but somehow I didn't say it." "One never does," nodded Helen understandingly. "Oh, it's all so unfair! They've never appreciated my work. I'va stayed after hours, I've gone without luncheon, I've brought work home and they've taken it all for granted. They'll never get anyone else, to do the work in that office for the salary they're paying me. Before I got home I was wild at myself for having promised to stay.

And then" she leaned back with a satirical smile "Just what do you think I did then?" A Sudden Impulse "Something impulsive and foolish, of course." I stopped in a drug store and call ed him upl I said I hoped he wouldn't think me whimsical, but that after all I felt I couldn't go on; that the work was too hard, that Oh, I was excited. I don't remember how I put It." Well?" leaned forward tensely. Oh," with a hysterical laugh, "1 ought. to be in an Institution for the feeble minded." "You don't mean you let him per suade you again?" Laura "He didn't have to persuade me. He Just said coldly that I must do as I choose; that if I wish ed to change "my mind again that was my privilege a sort of washing his hands of thewhole affair air.

Somehow he made me feel so small that I ended by almost reassuring him I'd be glad to stay. Oh, I know you can't understand how anyone could be such an idiot" "Yes, I can," mused Helen; "that's the woman of It the fear of displeasing the man. I don't care what man It is, If he's at all forcible he can always dominate a woman Just by mak Ing her feel that she mustn't displease him." "That's it," Laura caught at the phrase, "that's just what I felt that I mustn't displease him! And before I hung up the phone I was almost abject for having disturbed him again." She clenched her hands. "Oh, why am I always so weak? Why do I always back down?" "Don't, dear, don't get all worked up. It won't help." "Oh, but I'm consumed with rage at myself.

I had a chance to tell him about all the extra work I've been doing and I didn't. While he was talking he almost made me feel that my work was easy, that I was being well paid for it, and that he was surprised that I was dissatisfied!" Man, Poor Mant "That's a man's privilege to make a woman always feel that she's in the wrong." "Anybody can put me In the wrong. I can never argue I can never tell my side of a thing well.

Oh, it isn't fair, it Isn't fair!" "Dear, you'll only make yourself sick. Try not to dwell on it You can't afford to waste your energy this way. Waft, let me get you a glass of sherry." When Helen returned with the sherry, Laura was leaning back with closed eyes, her utter weariness showing in every line of her face, "I worn out I know I am. Last night going home I thought I'd faint In the subway. I've worked till half past six almost every day this week they don't appreciate it! No matter how much extra work I do they take It all for granted!" She rose and put down the empty glass with a gesture of despair.

Again her hands clenched, as her mind went back to Its grievance. put so much of myself Into my work that's why It hurts me so when they don't appreciate It.

Oh, it Isn't" "Now, don't begin that again. pleaded Helen. "And you're not going home to brood over a lonely restaurant dinner," as Laura started to draw on ner gloves. "You're going to stay right here and have dinner with us. Oh, I'd love to, but Mr.

"Wouldn't mind seeing a good show myself tonight. Oh, you dear! You're always so generous. Helen drew him back Into the shadow of the hall, where she kissed him purringly.

Then. breaking away from her, he strode nto the front room, where he greeted Laura cordially.
