FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1923 QUEEN MARY'S DOLL HOUSE Queen Mary of England has been busy for months creating a doll house that shall be a perfect specimen of the builder's skill and of the art of the interior decorator. Reports of the little structure call it a perfect thing, a thing of beauty and a source of immense satisfaction to its royal creator. There is joy in making anything that is perfect. There is joy in creat- ing anything that is truly beautiful. But the pleasure that is being de- rived by the Queen of England seems a small thing when one considers how the world is weeping because of want of those simple necessities of life, too often taken for granted by those to whom they come without seeking. England has been less seriously hurt by the war than any of the other countries concerned in it, except, of course, the United States, but England has a sufficient quota of misery and evil living conditions to occupy the time and thought of any royal lady ^vrtoâ€"cotrld^omrib ute~TO their relief." - ry's doll house recalls the lack of understanding of the ill starred queen of the French who saw ho sense in the angry cries of the mob for bread. effect. It is too often the most serious sort of misfortune, in the end, when such a prize is won. It gives to a quality that is only an accidental gift of nature an importance out of all pro- portion to the value that it actually holds. To be beautiful is nothing in itself..' To use beauty as a commercial asset is not often %worth what it costs. One can commend the beauty queens who decline to exhibit their beauty for profit, admiring the good sense which dictates such a course. GOOD SENSE â€"-At least-two of~ the young women wfa$o -wefe crowned queens in the beauty contest held at Atlantic City fast sunnrrer Tiave refused to have their heads turnedj^thal bit of pub- licity. Repeated offers of the stage have been declined the girls refusing to permit the recognition of their phy- sical charm to interfere with their life plans. It isn't often that the flattery of be- ing singled out as superior in any one quality can be accepted without ba4 DISRESPECT FOR THE BUDGET Congress has displayed no very keen pleasure in the the figures contained in the budget complied for the govern- ment by experts and accepted by the administration as the only way out of the muddle of our financial system and into a business scheme of govern- ment which will, in time, make the money paid into the public coffers by the people of the country do the work that it is intended to do. Disrespect for the budget by a mem- ber of the national legislative body ought to be looked upon by his con- stituents as complete evidence of hi.' lack of those qualities that should mark a member of the government. I; should point either to a headstrongness that refuses to accept the counsel of those who know more than the layman can know, or to a deliberate intention to set his own private interests above those of the country at large. Either characteristic should be enough to re- tire a man to private life. The price of food has gone down, according to recent compilations of domestic economists, but lest our joy mount too high, the statement is quali- fied by the report that rents are steadily mounting. It's as broad as it's long to those who are vainly looking for the cost of living to fall. Public School Heavyweight* Trim Strong Harvey Quintet Handicapped by __the loss °f Junius Mulvey, regular fo?wa>d. the Wllmette grade school heavyweight basketball team came out on the big end of a_l/ toy score last Friday afternoon when the local quintet journeyed to Harvey to play the Harvey team on its own floor. About 65 Wilmette fans witnessed the victory of their favorites. Not all of the plums went to Wil- mette however. In the lightweight clash, which preceded the mam event oi the afternoon, the local team was forced to bow to a superior team and an ally called "sickness." The loss of Jim Tencher, center, and Fred Waidner, for- ward, kept out of the game by illness, contributed to the 10 to 1 defeat of the Wilmete team. The heavyweight game was closely contended by the Harvey aggregation. Stellar work by Tommy Berger, Wll- mette center, helped the local outfit in scoring a win. Berger made 4 field goals. Tom Copeland, forward, and Robert Blasdell, guard, each added two baskets to the grand total ^â€"PoM& that was run up by Coach Todds charges. Both the heavyweight and lightweight teams will journey to the Lmcolnwood school this afternoon to. test their nettle against the Evanston quintets. Next Friday a return game on the Wilmette floor has been scheduled with Harvey. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., is to follow in the footsteps of his father and, ac- cording to his mother he has already signed a contract to head his own producing unit.
