I HE WAS UPHELD
BY FRIENDS
THE CRITICISM COULD NOT
PROCEED FROM LACK OF
PATRIOTISM
LONDON, Dec. 30—Lord Kib
besdale, whoso attack on the Brit
ish army staff in the House of
Lords caused him to be called the
next thing to a traitor by Lord
Derby, has given two sons and a
son-in-law to his country. Besides
being a brother-in-law of the pre
mier and head of one of the old
country families of Yorkshire. One
son was killed in Somililand ten
yeai's ago and the other son and
son-in-law met their deaths fight
ing in France during the last year.
In defense of Lord Ribbesdale, his
friends say he betrayed no military
secrets, as criticisms of the man
agement of the war are outspoken
in England, and common rumor had
it that Gen. Munro was in favor
of abandoning the Dardanelles. Be
sides it is declared, if the speech
was deemed harmful to the military
interests of the counthy, it could
have been easily stopped by the
censorship, who had only to noti
fy the press.

THROUGH V WOMA’S GLASSES
By Aunt Mary in the P.-I.)
“I didn’t think,” she said, look
ing up out of troubled eyes from
her seat on the low divan. “Connie
was always so good to me. How
could he have gone away with that
other woman. What could she have
done to make him desert me and
(he baby. I didn’t think when I
went off on that boat excursion
that he would care. Why didn’t he
say so if he felt hurt, as he says
he did in this letter. Oh, what
evershall I do ?
It was an hour later when I left
her. Sho had grown quiet and
promised to try and go to sleep. But
the world looks black enough to her
just now, as you may understand.
Alas, how often I hear those
words, “I didn’t think.” What
worlds of sorrow are wrapped up
in them. If we could all of us
remember to think in time. It was
Lillian Whiting in her “World
Beautiful” who wrote:
“Thought is the preparative pro
cess by means of which one comes
to be able to take advantage of op
portunity.’ ’
She might havo added that
thought was the bulwark behind
which we could safeguard our hap
piness from every attack of fate.
How many separations of friends,
of husbands and wives might have
been avoided, never indeed have
approached had there been a little
thiiigink done by the parties at the
outset. Thought is as essential to
life as food, perhaps more essen
tial. This is quite true of physical
life at least. But real life is not
merely or mostly a matter of phys
ical vitality, but it must mean in
tellectual strength and moral pur
pose as well. The poise and exhil
aration and enegery, which alone
mal: up true . living, are the re
sult of thought and reflection.
Thought is health; thought is a
chiever ant; thought is success. Now
it do t matter whether one’s suc
ci lepends on running a depart
ment store profitably, or building
a canal, or preaching an eloquent
sermon or keeping one’s married
partner in one’s own home, the
result depends entirely on thought.
What my tearful friend meant
when he said she didn’t think was
that sho didn't think of her hus
band when she left him to go off
on a pleasure trip. She is a good
little soul and meant no harm. I
know that very well. But the hus
band (I'm afraid he was looking
lor an excuse to do a mean act),
no doubt said to himself. “She does
n’t. ever think of me.” and so found
die excuse he was looking for.
Boor little soul, she has t0 think
now, both for herself and their
baby.

YOUR 15 MINUTES ARE UP
The attorneys for the prosecution
and defense had been allowed fif
teen minutes each to argue the
case. The attorney for the defense
had commenced his argument with
an allusion to the old swimming
hole of his boyhood days. He told
in flowery oratory of the balmy
air, the singing birds, the joy of
youth, the delights of the cool
water—
And in the midst of it he was In
terrupted by the drawling voice of
the judge.
“Come out, G’hauncey,” he said,
“and Put on your clothes. Your
fifteen minutes are up.”
