-A man is never his own worst enemy as long as he can keep his temper.

Jones made an urgent plea for official recognizance of the junior club, which was organized in Pasadena a little over a year ago, and has spread to several other Southern California cities.

SHOF PASADENA EVENING POST ASSOCIATED Foley's Friendly Fancies THE SONG OF THE SPRING The little spring was bubbling With tinkles and with trills, And distant from the ways of men Far up in the green hills, And seemed to say as I knelt down To drink in the near gloam: "Pray For come and see me find often, you'll always home." The little spring was flowing, And sparkling in the light, And dancing at the sunrise And murmuring in the night. JAMES W. FOLEY And said: "Oh ye, the thirsty Whenceever ye may roam, "Pray come and see me find often, For you'll always home." And as I heard it singing Far from the world apart, I named the song it brought me Song of the kindly heart, For it says at the sunrise At noon and in the gloam, "Pray come and see me often For you'll always find me home." And so I took the singing Home in my heart with me, And I can hear the music Still tinkling merrily: "Oh come, ye worn and weary, By sad ways who may roam, I'm here to rest and cheer ye, You'll always find me home." MOANS A NIGHTS By HERBERT M.

COREY (Copyright, 1926, by Herbert Corey) NEW YORK, July that in my heart of hearts I care a continental, whatever that may be, but I wonder what has happened to the nudes of yesteryear? Who buys them? What happens to them? Is it the disappearance of the bar-room that has destroyed our taste for fat art, or the new silhouette so liberally exhibited by our womenfolk, or have we just changed? When Vincent Astor took out of the old Astor house on Fifth avenue all he thought worth saving, he left amid a collection of priceless junk the portrait of a large, sloppy lady, 'chastely reclining on one elbow exhibiting an acreage of bare back. The visitors laughed. The old Hoffman house was notable not only for the high muzzle velocity of its cocktails but for a display of larded femininity, that outside could of a not Turkish have bath on Thursday afternoon. They were sold to some one, of course, but to whom? Likewise the Herald Square hotel had a line of lumpy nymphs over its bar. Where are they? Honest John Kelly's gambling establishment was known even in the Far West for its lavish manifestation of the female form.

The largest and fattest painting was sold for. three dollars and the buyer said he was stung. Before the German club lost its quarters on 59th street as an act of war it was all glued up with creasy ladies, coy and unadorned as kine. Blooie! Even the staunchly conservative Metropolitan Museum has, it seems to me, despatched some of the fairest and thickest specimens to the cellar limbo. Gone, all are gone, the old familiar shoulder-blades.

Which reminds me that a psychologist and a coat room man have come into collision and my money is on the coast room man. Edward S. Robinson, associate professor of psychology in the University of Chicago, mourned to the American Association of Museums visitor spends only from minutes in average, going through a museum." The coat room man says no such thing. for the course is an hour, he says, and it is rarely broken. Thus musing upon the higher life, I progressed into Harlem, to find a dark cloud of witnesses grouped before an art store.

Delighted with this evidence appreciation of the things of the spirit, I shouldered in, to find that a new form of policy is now being played by our colored brethren. The method escapes me, but in some way policy gigs are con- FRATERNAL NOTES! Macabees Tonight is ladies night with the Macabees and they will hold full sway with the Sir Knights as their guests.

THREE STARS IN FAREWELL APPEARANCE Maurice Wells, Lois Austin, Helene Millard Will Leave Community Playhouse But three more opportunities remain for seeing "The Youngest" at the Community Playhouse, and that means there are but three more chances--for a long while to come--for seeing on the stage there three of the most popular younger members of the Community Players. For this Philip Barry comedy the last in which Maurice Wells, associate director, Lois Austin and Helene Millard, two of the talented feminine players, will appear on the local stage in many months. Mr. Wells is leaving soon upon a trip abroad which will keep him away several months.

Of even longer duration will be the absences of Miss Austin, a local girl, and Miss Millard of Los Angeles, since both have signed a year's contract to appear with the Wilkes Stock company in Denver. "The Youngest" has been a fine "temporary farewell" vehicle for all three of these accomplished young people. Particularly has that been true in the case of Mr. Wells, since it is he who plays the youngest of the comedy, and of the Winslow family, Richard. He is one of those unfortunate individuals who spends his time writing short stories while parents, brothers and sisters raise their eyebrows, and publishers return manuscripts.

Richard's sister, "Muff," played by Helene Millard, has a house guest, Nancy--Miss Austin-who makes over Richard's "inferiority complex" in a deliciously humorous fashion.

Also the most remarkable life career yet reported in this somewhat fleshy city is that of Mr. Francis X. Callahan, who for 11 years has visited 65 theaters each night the season and has never show.

His duty is durine, to report upon program needs for the company that prints these bills of more or less mental fare and he has never bothered to look at any performance. He does, it is true, carry away a vague impression of life and movement upon a distant stage, but that is all. And in the recesses of his soul he is convinced that he has not missed much. And if you are interested in knowing, it appears that the latest art form being groomed for a run among the moneyed connoisseurs of this excellent city is that of miniatures in wax. They had their day, one is told, more than a century ago, but are being revived.

It is only a matter of time when no well dressed home will be complete without a horse-hair sofa and tidies on the chairs.
