Prom where she stood the air she craved Smote with the smell of pine; .It was too much to bear; she braved Her gods and crossed the line. And we were hurt to see her go, With her fair face and hnlr. And veins too thin and blue to shot? What mingled blood flowed there. We envied her a while, who still Pursued the hated track; Then we forgot her name, until One day her shade came back. Calm as a wave without a crest, I Sorrow-pro'id and sorrow-wise. With trouble sucking at her breast, With tear-dlstalnful ryes.

Radio Brings Order To Language Chaos That tiie spread ol broadcasting i is bringing a new vuviformity in the pronunciation and use of the Eng- j lisli language, is indicated by a study made for the Woman’s Home, Companion. Owing to the popular ity of the radio in America, there are today fewer sharp differences in dialect titan ever before. More | over. America, even with its far [greater size than little England, has ; fewer differences titan Britain. Ant [ericans. in contrast to Britishers, lean make themselves easily under I-stood to fellow citizens hailing from; [the most distani points. Some of the most cultivated Brit ishers, it is shown, •‘snip*'- their. words so extravagantly that they) can be comprehended only by those who went to the same college or be long to the same social set. George Arttss, who recently re ceived a gold medal from the Am- j erican Academy of Arts and Let- j ! ters for good diction, comments that, "the chief fault- with speech in America is sloppiness, and the out | standing defect in England is snip nlness." Americans, tie (jays, Are so anx ious to be unaffected that they speak carelessly. If the purpose of language is to convey thought, or to conceal the absence of thought, it Is admitted that Americans get along fairly well for all their slop piness. It is predicted that “English as she is spoke” will become a livelier subject from now on, with millions listening nightly in strange voices on the. radio and in the talktes. Standard* will evolve from hearing scores of announcers do their stuff so meticulously and so differently, and from being assailed by the ex At The Theaters The- Webb today announces two (more days of “'Hell's Angels,” How jnrd Hughes’ $4,000,000 air-war spec* ilacle.

The story ts concerned with Horton the butler who gets a month off to | play gentlemen, besides a check for *1,000 and n, complete wardrobe for Ills personal use. "Radio Raspber ries” and song reel are comedy sup plements. Ben Lyon and Raquel Torres are | electric light names in the world's i show center. They are among the i prime favorites of today. Both are starred in "Aloha,” the new picture beginning at. the Lyric theatre to day and running through Thursday. In the play, Raquel wnnted to be like his—Ben’s—people, but the conventions of civilization were too much for her primitive mind. It’s a throbbing romance of a wild girl who couldn’t be tamed. KKKIMO MAKES $40,000 YEARLY FROM HUNTIN (i Prosperity appears to be. smiling t on some members of the so-called t submerged races. An official of the J Hudson Bay Company reports to The Country Home, that there are several Eskimo families on Us books who make upwards of $40, ()00 a year from the sale of white fc»: furs. Their income is ho more remark able than some of their ways of spending it. Each of these aristo cratic Eskimo families, for instance buys coal at $300 a tori. They spend equally large amounts for radio equipment and airplane rides.
