Still staunchly supporting Al Smith for the presidency, Frank Quinn, manager of a local theatre, has filed a cross-petition to bis wife's divorce suit, charging she "goes into fits of rage because he did not vote for Herbert Hoover." Mrs. Qulnn's petition charges neglect. A rather famous artist condescended to make a little pare cash by painting a picture for a soap ad. Ho painted a picture of a beautifully radiant mother and child, the inference being that would ye, too, be beautiful, ye should scrub yourself with the particular soap advertised.

The ad did bring in returns, but of a sort rather unexpected. Hundreds of protesting letters remonstrated wHu the company for daring to foist upon the public a Madonna with no wedding ring on her hand. All the advertising was recalled, and the artist got busy putting the little gold circlet upon the offending bare finger. The company gives forth the story as a tribute to modern morals and righteous womanhood. But in the opinion of Aliens Sumner, noted as a writer of feminist editorials, it Is discouraging and rather unworthy of modern sounds like straining at a gnat, a deliberate search for evil when beauty is offered one," she says.

"It's a nasty-nicenees and the sort of pettiness which scourges too many human beings." And perhaps, Alleno is right. Aimee Semple McPherson rode right through her mother's town without stopping to eee her. The mother, Mrs. Mlnnio Kennedy, was the very efficient business manager of Angelas Temple la Los Angeles who parted ways with her illustrious daughter some time ago. Mother Kennedy remarked apropros Almte's snub of the other day: "A daughter may leave a mother, but a real mother will never leave a daughter." Nine times out of ten that's true.

Still, they found six little children ranging In age from one to seven freezing to death in an abandoned summer shack; at Mona Lake, Michigan, the other day. The mother, Mrs. Frank Stewart, was found gaily lunching in a restaurant of the nearest town they told her that her baby had his toes frozen and that all the children were almost dead from starvation and exposure Which rather looks as if occasionally this much tooted maternal Instinct was over-rated. Nobody ever heard pf Mrs. Ferdinand Johnson, of Evans-ton, 111., outside of her own town until the other day.

It was at a school mothers' meeting In that city she 'made her mark. Someone suggested that the children have orchestras and give concerts after school hours. It was then that Mrs. Johnson was heard. "This everlasting culture business Is overburdening our children.

It's radio concerts, orchestra concerts, theatres, classical dancing, culutre this and culture that. The place for a child after school is out playing." She's been quoted on the press wires all over the country. Somehow, viewing the school child of today, one Is led to believe that the lady is about right. al showings at the Victoria today, after a triumph- yesterday. It is a picture of both Paris and Amer ica and with Movietone accompaniment is realistic In its presentations of both the dramatic and comedy angles.
