LoTO-Making Added to Arts Lost to Mankind "Love-making Is fast becoming a tost art It Is being practiced witlk about as much enthusiasm as a hun gry man pounces upou a charlotte rosas; with as much finesse as a butcher carves a steak,” says Paul Mlraud, author. "Love, the sublime passion, the most Intense, absorbing and tender of all the emotions is, as a result. In danger -of dying a slow, reluctant death. “It Is a great tragedy, but we mast Jaca It VVe have neither the tima nor the place for love-making. Lov^ making requires leisurb and an ap propriate setting, and In this modera day we have neither. It Is true that love-^-a fundamental emotion of man kind—can never exactly be done to death. Men and women will always fall In—and out—of love; but It la regrettable that love, so divine, and love-making, so delightful, should be come such negligible quantities In our dally lives. “Love-making once naed to be a great art—one which was condneted with artistry, talent, akill and fineaae. : .

While It was In progreas the caretaker remembered be had left the ladder ont, so he put It away In a shed. After the concert the party on the roof discovered that their “exit” had disappeared. There was a 25- foot drop, and none of them, in their Sunday best, cared to risk It So they were forced to sit on the roof In a biting wind, until about 4:00 a. m. they attracted the attention of a Uceman, who rescued them. The Ckob-Ckoo Desire In the London Saturday Review BIr. Sterndnle Bennett records this Inter esting human phenomenon: *T have known at least two great scholars (one an Aristotelian, the other a constitutional historian) who would race for railway bridges, to sea the traius pass underneath and arxlvs deliberately early at a terminus (when making a Journey), so that they might gaze in admiration at ths engine and even proudly mount ths footplate and talk with the driver.* We have felt that way ourself.
