J ch Em 149 Sydenham Street a THE CONFESSIONS OF ROKANE | (By Frances Walter) AN ARGUMENT. (Copyright, 19616, the McClure Nawgpaper Syndicate) The place we had chosen for our camp was ideal - for that purpose. High up on the grassy bank of the erystal, pure creek we had chanced to find a broad, flat rock, over which a wide spreadifig oak capt its cool shadow. Here we prepared our lun- cheon, for Kenneth declared he was famishing for food and could not enjoy another moment of life unless his hunger wae satisfied. and, despite the fact that it was only eleven o'clock, we allowed him to have his way. It was a very congenial little party which gathered about the improvised table. In fact, from the time I had thrown my arms about my newly- found cousin at the railroad station on the evening of her arrival, I had heen drawn to her by the many charming qualities which she posses- sed. And she gave every indication that the attraction was mutual. As for Kenneth, both Virginia and 1 admired him. Had 1 been called upon to find fault with him, I should have said that he was perhaps too retiring, too dignified, but this fault was not striking when he was among his friends, for with those he liked he unbent to the extent that he became almost talkative. It was a novelty for me to hear views such as his expressed by a man, In all my experience I had known only women to hold such opinions, yet Kenneth did not appear effemin- ate when he gave utterance to these unusual ideas. Just as his opinion of sportsman- ship had been unique for masculine utterance, so his views on nature it- gelf proved refreshing. "I cannot understand the attitude from which some persons regard na- ture," he was saying in reply to some- nia had asked. 'They think it is a cadaver to be pleces and studied un- nd why? I can under- stand the necessity for studying the human body, but nature is much better let alone. In its entirety it is magnificent. In its details it may be wonderful, but it cannot be beautiful." "Those who seek nature are not a by Lerrons Prepared Specially for. By Pictorial Review ly emmy Virginia. They are scholars. They are utilitarians. They seek medicinal herbs. They strive ito understand insect life so that they may destroy that whieh is harmful and build up that which is beneficial. I suppose such a seeker would not know if a thing was beautiful if he looked at it, or he might consider a rare spe- cies of toad an object of admiration." "It cannot be denied that what you say is true," returned Kenneth. "I know it is true, and that is the rea- son why I find if so regrettable. I would not preach so much if ' the search for useful knowledge confined within proper limits, but it is not. In our 'sehools they teach to pieces, to mangle the forms of Awormg, to pry fimto. the roots and stems of herbs. What earthly good does it accomplish? None." "But 'these young women may be- come scientists," scholars usually are men. Why ex- men?" They argued in this vein for an side of the tonténtion, while Ken- neth supported the view which one might have thought a woman would be partial to. Kept. on indefinitely had I not put a stop to it all by suggesting a walk along the creek bank. As it was, the disputants gave ground, but slowly, and it was Some time before we were egrefully picking bur way along the high and dangerous path by the winding rivulet: (To be continued.)

Every effort of the department will be laid upon speeding up the large number of A ac now pending. MT, Daniels said no additional submarine chasers would be ordered at present. The chasers are valu- able for harbor and inshore patrol work, but the destroyers are far superior even for these duties, and have in addition seagoing qualities which make them of Tar greater value in all ways than the small chasers.
