Is Chivalry Passing? Old-fashioned masculine chivalry is going the way of Nineveh and Tyre, if you believe all you hear. The women complain that it is vanishing rapidly, and hardly anyone gets up to argue the point. But a couple of male students at Ohio btate University used the columns of the student daily newspaper the other day to remark that it's mostly women's fault. Chivalry is vanishing, explained one, because old-fashioned femininity is vanishing. A home-body girl can expect chivalrous attentions ; a budding career-woman cannot. And the other man remarked that girls who go about in red-nail polish, heavy fake-up, and such unfeminine contraptions as jodhpurs are not much inspiration for the awakening of the more gentle sentiments. We pass these explanations along for what they may be worth. Our own observation is that the young people of both sexes are pretty nice folks, these day. If they're losing los-ing the old-time graces, they are acquiring a new frankness and camaraderie that seem to while. Penalty of. -Greed A news story from a Michigan pujer provides another bit of evidence of human folly. Five men had good jobs in a county office. A slick-tongued slick-tongued young man came along and told them that, for $50 from each, he could get them better jobs with the state. They immediately quit their jobs, put up their $250, and waited. And waited. The glib job salesman vanished, leaving leav-ing them minus the money and their jobs. These unfortunate men, and thousands of other people who have been victimized by swindlers, would have done well to remember and heed the moral of a tale written by a sage of long ago. The parable told of a dog which, with a big. juicy bone in his mouth, was crossing a bridge, and noticed his reflection reflec-tion in the water. Seeing this other dog with what apieared a bigger bone, he opened his mouth to seize it, and dropped his own in the water. Coming of Age The extreme importance of making commercial aviation safer is emphasized by the way in which aerial travel keeps on expanding. All records for passenger, mail and express traffic from the great airport at Newark, N. J., were broken in 1936. During the year, 265,000 passengers arrived or departed by air fully 60,000 more than in 1935. Travel by air has been growing more and more popular every year. Every major airport has recorded a steady increase. in-crease. And it behooves both the airline managers and the federal government authorities to see that there is a corresponding corres-ponding rise in the standards of safety. Commercial aviation avia-tion has come of age, now. Small countries can never have too many friends or too few enemies. Dr. Rudolf Hoist i, Finnish foreign minister.

Sky's the Limit BY X RE POUTER Going down the street the other day in a heavy snowstorm, I met an acquaintance who was taking it full-force on his semi-bald semi-bald and graying head. Altho it is not much more polite po-lite to comment on what a man is wearing than it is to comment com-ment on what he IS wearing, I knew this particular man well enough to ask him if the heavy, wet flakes were not a bit chilly on his bare pate. He told me he had gone without with-out a hat so long that he, without with-out a hat, was no more conscious of cold, snow or rain, fhan I was conscious of them, hat and all. He told me further that he ac- LEAVE HE OWNS A FARM, A SO, THERE I Alt' Rf iTrLlIZCXC I 'r-ir-- v - MACHINE AN' BUTCHERS A LOME !

IMC. T. U BEC THE SENATE quired the habit from Hill Billy, also known as D. K. M., who used to write either occasionally or regularly for this newspaper. Hill Billy, in one of his many epistles on a thousand and one subjects, has related how, in his mountain fastnesses, he had tossed his hat aside one spring and had forgotten where he put it. He went thru spring and summer without a hat, and by the time fall was turning into winter he was so thoroly imbued with the notion of hatlessness that he. couldn't bring himself to go back to the habit of wearing one. Hill Billy wrote of a new sense of freedom, a freedom from just one of the many artificialities that so-called civilized man has built up around himself to enthrall en-thrall him and to chain him to a way of living. Once when I was a young man and was farming far out in the sticks, I went barefoot all one summer, and won thereby a delicious deli-cious feeling of having throttled a civilized conventioi that had previously convinced me of its all-importance. I suppose that, raised to the nth degree, it is some such satisfaction sat-isfaction that the nudists get from discarding all hampering apparel and trotting around in the all-together. , I could understand perfectly the satisfaction that my semi-bald semi-bald friend was getting from defying de-fying the elements that raged around his naked brow. Maybe I'll try the no-hat plan of living sometime. I've taken the pledge, however, never to give up coat and vest and trousers. trou-sers.

Those students who have attempted a stroll along muddy lovers' lane have observed the pussy willows showing sure signs of life, and have heard newly returned songbirds. song-birds. According to Karl Miller, assistant assist-ant superintendent of buildings and campus, the surest sign of spring's arrival is the increasing number of students sunning themselves them-selves on the lawns.

WOW GO OTt WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XIX f"PHE offices of the law firm of A Prentiss and Elwell occupied several old-fashioned rooms over a hardware store on Center street. Though unpretentiously housed, it was one of the most important legal firms in the state. Someday Some-day the name on the window would be changed to "Prentiss, Elwell, and Prentiss," for Morgan Prentiss, Judge Prentiss's son, had entered into the partnership (on a beginner's basis) two years before, after graduation from the University of Virginia. Morgan was alone in the office today. Judge Prentiss was trout fishing in Canada, and Mr. Elwell El-well was in Lexington on business. busi-ness. Morgan had just persuaded a client to compromise with a man he wanted to sue. "After all, Mr. Brown," Morgan pointed out, "we can't have everything every-thing in this world. It would be pleasant, I grant you, but no one's ever found the way to work it." When the client had gone Morgan Mor-gan reflected on his own advice. He had actually directed that statement at himself. He was thinking of his provisional proposal pro-posal to Kate Meed the night before. be-fore. She would accept his terms, of course, and they would be married mar-ried soon. In many ways he'd be short-changed when he got Kate Meed. There were a great many things she lacked that the wife of a rising young lawyer should have money, influence, ambition, a talent for diplomacy. "But she stirs me," he admitted. "There's some kind of charm and power in her make-up that the others lack." The office telephone rang. The secretary answered in an adjoining adjoin-ing room and Morgan could hear her side of the conversation: "Yes, Eve. . . . No, your father's fa-ther's out of town today. Is there something I could do for you? . . . Yes, Mr. Prentiss is in. Wait. I'll call him." Morgan picked up his telephone. tele-phone. "Hello, Eve!" "Hello, Morgan. I wanted to ask Dad something I'd forgotten HOUSE BACKS COURT REFORM SALT LAKE CITY. Utah, Mar. 5 r.P The house today suspended suspend-ed rules and passed on third and final reading a memorial asking the United States congress to support President Roosevelt in his proposed supreme court changes. Apparently unable to wait for senate action on a joint memorial memor-ial now pending before the upper house, representatives whipped an independent memorial into shape and rushed it through. The memorial will be forwarded forward-ed to congress immediately. In the senate, the governor's power to make appointments to fill legislative vacancies was upheld up-held when a bill by Senator Lawrence Law-rence Nelson, Salt Lake, was killed by a vote of 13-9. Nelson's bill would have divested divest-ed the chief executive of his appointive power and turned it over to a county committee. SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Mar. 5 U.P The senate today refused to accept house amendments to senate bill 8, which provides for a state department of justice. The bill will go back to a conference committee. The senate objected to an amendment which would have DANCE UTAHNA Bargain Night!

Listen, you poor slave, leave the office to Miss Carter and come on out here for a tall, frosty julep. ... I mean you're coming," she said as he made a protesting sound. He went to the door of his father's fa-ther's office. 'Miss Carter, if any one wants me, you can reach me at the El wells." Miss Carter went to the window and watched Morgan get into his car and drive away. a "PVE opened the white colonial door and Morgan stepped into a wide cool halL "You hussy!" he said. "I've a notion to tell your father you lured me out here. He told me to stay at the office." Eve laughed. They went into the living-room which was kept cool and shaded with Venetian blinds. There were linen covers on the furniture, and great bowls of garden flowers everywhere. Beyond the spacious living-room was the library, its shelves filled with leather-bound volumes. The setting suggested a gracious mode of living. Ease. Luxury. . . . Morgan suddenly pictured Eve in a great city house in Washington. A senator's house. Yes, she'd fit. She'd know the steps that led there, too. She'd keep pace with a man going up. She'd not be a drag. . . . Eve scid, handing Morgan a tinkling glass. "Sit down, my handsome young friend. Beside me, but not too close. On account of its being so warm, you know. Where were you last night? I tried to get you." Morgan sipped pensively. "You're lying, of course. I saw Red Jackson in town in white flannels, buying a box of candy. About 8 o'clock, that was. He had a date with you." "Too true," Eve admitted. "We spent the evening eating the candy and thrashing over his story about killing the deer in Michigan. I didn't really try to phone you, of course. I was only sending out messages by mental telepathy. You didn't get them, so I knew you were far away. Occupied with some other woman. . . . Kate Meed?" "I drove out there about 9," Morgan answered. "Then we went to Blue Grass Inn and danced till 1:30. A good time was had by all." "Not too good, I hope?" said Eve shrewdly. "I mean there was a tricky moon last night." She caught the tell-tale emotions that flitted across his face. "Morgan, "Mor-gan, I hope you haven't gotten yourself really involved with Kate Meed? Engaged, I mean?" "It's hanging fire," Morgan replied. re-plied. "I might as well be honest hon-est with you.

"I suppose you're right," Mor-. gan answered sullenly. "I've felt all along that Kate Meed wasn't the right person for me. But I just drifted into this thing somehow some-how " a TpVE said understandingly, sweetly, leaning toward him and touching his hands, "Your chivalry and your emotions did it, darling. I think it's rather tragic the way men get into these things. . . . Listen, Morgan, you're going go-ing places if nothing hinders you. I can't stand by and see you saddle sad-dle yourself with a hopeless weight like the Meed family! The Meeds are on their way out, Morgan. They used to be something, some-thing, but now they're just dead timber. Why should you carry them?" Morgan got up and paced the fjbor. Eve saw that he was going go-ing 'to confide in her. She listened lis-tened attentively. "This is the way it stands, Eve," Morgan said. "I told Kate we'd get married if she'd ditch her family. I hope to Heaven she turns me down!" Eve shook her head wisely. "She won't, of course, you poor baby. You're too good a catch. You're the best looking male in town and you're nicely set in a good law firm. You've got that $30,000 excuse me for being personal! that your mother left you. If Kate's withholding her yes,' it's only for the sake of looks. She'd ditch a dozen families fam-ilies for you. Though you can take my word for it, Morgan, the Meeds won't stay ditched- You'll have them all on your back eventually." Morgan stopped in his pacing and stood in front of her. A surprised sur-prised and daring look was in his eyes. He quoted experimentally, " 'Methinks the lady doeth protest pro-test too much!' Are you fishing for me, by any chance, you hussy?" "I've been fishing for you for weeks," Eve replied. "You're not my best prospect, by any means, but I happen to be crazy about you." She got up and walked into his arms and left the rest to human nature. Later she said, "You must go tonight and have it out with her, Morgan. Delays are dangerous. You muct tell her, right off, that you can't let her make the sacrifice sacri-fice you asked her to make last night" "Eve, you're wonderful," Morgan Mor-gan said tenderly.
