No one  appears  to  have\n(:ed that the vessel was doomed.   There\nno hurrying to and fro, and here the\ntraditions of British seamanship were\nhily maintained.

Truly a glorious climax to a terrible catastrophe, and\nto apply a martial phrase which has been\ncoined into the universal language of brave\nmen, \"She went down with colours flying.\"\nThere are two aspects of a catastrophe overwhelming in its suddenness and extent\nwhich claim attention. The one has reference to the mechanical construction and design of the vessel, the instructions given to\nthe Captain, the information which had\nreached the vessel as to the dangerous proximity of a field of ice, and the steps which\nhad been taken to minimize the danger.\nAll these will be the subject of inquiry at\nthe hands of the U. S. Senate Commission\nalready convened in New York, as well as\nbythe board of underwriters in London. It\nwould therefore be improper and unfair\non the eve of the inquiry *o anticipate the\nevidence or prejudge the case. For the moment the civilized world contemplates with\na feeling of awe, a disaster so dire. It is\nthinking of the tribute which Nature takes\nfrom the boasted civilization of the twentieth century. It is reflecting on the impotence of wealth, however fabulous, to\nsecure immunity from perils that threaten\nall alike. It is staggered at the consequences that follow when man places a too\nimplicit reliance on his own powers, ancl\nwhen, however innocently, he leaves some\npostern door unguarded through which a\nfoe may enter. But above all, the world\nis thinking not so much of the fate which\nlevels all distinctions, as of the glorious heritage of the Anglo-Saxon race, wliieh never\nfails in moments of stress to demonstrate\nits finest qualities. The world has never\nwitnessed a more sublime spectacle of self-\nsacrifice than that furnished by the 1,600\nbrave men who went down with the Titanic.\nTheir example rekindles a spirit of optimism in the human breast. It demolishes\nthe cry of the pessimist and the cr.aker,\nthat with increased wealth and self-indulgence men are becoming more selfish. It\ndemonstrates as nothing before has ever demonstrated that the spirit of altruism dominates the men of the twentieth century in\nits loftiest manifestations, and that out of\nthe seething cauldron into which the cosmopolitan elements of a New World have\nbeen flung, can emerge as noble traits as\nany which characterized the heroes of old.\nToday tens of thousands of our fellow creatures, who have familiarized themselves\nwith the story of the wreck of the Titanic,\nare able to say with a stronger feeling of\nassurance\u2014\n\"God is in the heavens, all's right with the world.\"\nELK LAKE WATER-The Week\ndoes not happen to be in the happy\nposition of the morning journal,\nwhich is able to claim credit for everything\ngood that happens. All the same, it gets\na little credit occasionally, and sometimes\nfrom the least expected quarters. This\nweek it is in receipt of a communication\nfrom one of the leading medical men of the\ncity, who does not wish to have his name\npublished, on the subject of the pollution\nof Elk Lake water. The writer declares\nthat the conditions so graphically described\nby two well known citizens who contributed\ntheir statement to the columns of The Week\na fortn-'ght ago, have existed for two years\nand have been within the knowledge of the\nCity authorities. The daily press has been\nappealed to repeatedly to give publicity to\nthe facts, but has refused to do so on the\nplea that \"it would alarm the citizens.\" In\nthis matter, the daily press certainly drew\na very fine distinction in deciding that it\nwas better for the citizens to be \"poisoned\"\nthan \"alarmed.\" The hog farmer, who\njthought more of making a few dollars out\n'of swine than of his duty to his fellowmen,\njwas found guilty of polluting the waters of\nJthe lake, and mulcted in a fine of $50. His\nJlawyer says he will appeal, presumably be\ncause he is so ashamed of himself that he\nhardly dares let the matter rest where it is.\nAs the appeal must be on a point of law,\nand as the Magistrate has found him guilty\non the facts of the case, and as, in any\nevent, the decision of the Appeal Court\ncannot alter the facts, The Week wishes\nto extend to the Water Commissioner its\nhearty congratulations on the arousing\neffect of the article which appeared in these\ncolumns. Just why it should have taken\ntwo years to realize that hog sewage might\nnot be innocuous in drinking water, no man\ncan tell. It is almost as difficult to understand why, in face of this evidence, the\nWater Commissioner still thinks that Elk\nLake water is pure, and that there is nothing to be alarmed at because the \"analysis\"\nis satisfactory. There are some things\nwhich baffle \"analysis,\" and among these\nmust be classed Elk Lake water and the\nopinion of the Water Commissioner. Whatever else results from the belated prosecution of the hog ranchers, the City has a\nright to expect at least that hereafter the\nWater Commissioner will see to it that the\nsewage is diverted from the Lake.\nplined and determined, who have slowly but\nsurely worn down the resistance of the lawbreakers. At the time of writing any\nserious attempt to force a permanent strike\nhas collapsed. This desirable result has\nbeen effected without any outbreak of violence, and when one remembers that the\nofficers of the I. W. W. selected one of the\nloneliest and most isolated spots in southern\nB. C. for their operations, the result must\nbe regarded as highly creditable to the\nPolice. The same fearless, determined\nopposition has been offered to the mischief-\nmakers in Victoria, and before it the attempt to engineer a strike among the workmen of the Canadian Mineral Rubber Comr\npany has met with ignominious failure. It\nis to be hoped that the authorities will not\nrelax their efforts to rid the Province of as\nunscrupulous a. gang of anarchists as could\nbe found anywhere.\nPOLICE COURT METHODS-\nEveryone has heard of \"Justice's justice,\" and occasionally the Oak Bay\nPolice Court furnishes a fine, fully-developed, up-to-date specimen. Last week a\nparty of Vancouver ladies and gentlemen,\nvisiting Victoria, took a motor ride in the\nevening to Oak Bay. It was after eleven\no'clock; the road was clear, and they drove\ntheir car.to a maximum of seventeen miles\nan hour, as shown by the speedometer. The\nlocal constable was on the look-out. He\nfollowed the car, laid an information, and\ntook out two summonses; the first- for driving without lights, the second for speeding\nbeyond the limit of twenty-five miles an\nhour. The case was tried before Magistrate\nHenderson. The Constable swore that the\ncar was going at the rate of sixty or seventy\nmiles an hour, but he failed to explain how,\nif this was the case, and the lights were out,\nhe was able to see the number or identify\nthe car subsequently. Foreseeing a little\ndifficulty in this respect, he withdrew the\nsummons referring to the lights, but still\nswore to the express-train speed, in spite of\nthe evidence of two gentlemen in the car,\none of them the owner, an expert driver,\nwho has had a car for five years and has\nnever been summonsed. The sapient\nMagistrate fined him forty dollars and costs.\nOf course the case will be appealed, for\nnot only were five occupants of the car, all\npeople of reliability, able to swear that the\nspeed never reached twenty-five miles, but\nthere is also the evidence of the speedometer and of a well known public man,\nresident of Oak Bay, who witnessed the incident from the sidewalk, and who confirms\nthe evidence of the occupants of the car.\nThe Week has not been slow in the past to\nadvocate stringency for all \"scorchers,\" but\nit has never yet advocated persecution, and\nthat is what this specimen of \"Justice's\njustice\" amounts to.\nSOOKE LAKE\u2014In view of the disgusting conditions which prevail at\nElk Lake, it is much to be regretted\nthat work is not progressing faster on the\nSooke Lake scheme. If it be true, as reported, at the Council Meeting on Wednesday night, that only about one-half of one\nper cent, of the specified work has yet been\ncompleted, whereas six per cent, is due, then\nit is the duty of someone to ascertain the\nreason. It may or may not be the fault of\nthe contractors. They may have been hampered, as other city contractors have been\nhampered, through lack of organization and\nbecause that portion of the work devolving\nupon the City has not been attended to. Be\nthat as it may, the main point is that the\nCity needs the water and needs it badly,\nand that what with delays in getting the expropriation claims settled (through the contumacy of the agent representing the\nowners), and delay in prosecuting the actual\nwork, it still looks as if it might be dangerous to predict any date, short of thc\nmilennium for its completion.\nA POPULAR APPOINTMENT \u2014\nOf the septette of able men who represent British Columbia in the\nFederal House, Mr. A. S. Goodeve is one\nof the strongest, if he is not intellectually\nthe leader of them all. He has quickly\nforged his way into the very front rank ann\nhas made an impression on the House and\nthe country which caused him to ge regarded as a man in the public eye. His appointment as Railway Commissioner in succession to the Hon. Thomas Greenway, will bo\nuniversally popular. He has lived in the\nKootenay for more than twenty years, has\ntravelled largely, and is fully posted on the\nconditions and requirements of the work.\nTo the discharge of the important duties of\nhis new position, he will bring wide experience, keen intelligence, and integrity of\npurpose, and is bound to make an important contribution to the solution of the\ntransportation problem which, at the present stage of western development is a\nmatter of supreme importance.\nTHE I. W. W.\u2014By this time the\nofficials of the I. W. W. must be\ngetting very discouraged. It is true\nthey were able to bring about a suspension\nof work in the Canadian Northern construction camps along the Fraser, but from\nthat moment they have steadily lost ground.\nWhen the Attorney-General makes up his\nmind to do a thing, it is as good as done.\nFor the first time in his career, an obstreperous band of men, bent on conducting\nguerrilla warfare have found out that when\nit comes to fighting he well deserves the\nnickname \"Napoleon\" with which his political opponents have dubbed him. There\nhas been no sensationalism ancl no fireworks, but tlie Attorney-General has poured\nin a steady stream of officers well disci-\nFISHING REGULATIONS\u2014A few\nweeks ago The Week published\ncopies of correspondence which had\npassed between Mr. Alan Dumbleton and\nMr. G. H. Barnard, M.P., Ottawa, on the\nsubject of protection against Japanese and\nother depredators who are rapidly depleting our fisheries in Saanich Arm and\nCowichan Bay. The correspondence distinctly stated that an order would be issued\nby 'the Fisheries Department effectively\ndealing with the complaint. On enquiry\nThe Week learns that no such instruction\nhas yet reached the local authorities and\nthe pirating complained of is carried on\nwith the same assiduity as ever. This is\nvery much to be regretted and all interested\nin the subject will hope that the necessary\ninstructions will be no longer delayed. THE WEEK, SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1912\nI really think that the first subject\nclaiming my attention this week is\none which I hate to mention, but with\nrespect to which duty compels. We\nall know how popular t'he Beacon\nHill Park band concerts are; indeed,\nI am not sure that they are not the\nmost popular function in the city. In\nany event, they present features of\ninterest which compel the admiration\nof all. They provide the finest type\nof open-air amusement, and I know of\nnothing more gratifying than to see\nthe crowds of people gather in the\npark whenever the band- is playing.\nIt takes me back to the happiest\ndays of my childhood, when, under\nthe charge of a nurse, I used to\ntoddle round the park, amusing myself with all the thousand and one\ntrifles that appeal to a child, sheltered from the sun by spreading trees\nrolling on the grass, getting an occasional swing, and filling up the time\nby feeding the water fowl on the\nlake. And to think that all this goes\non every Sunday during the Summer\nseason in Beacon Hill Park, and goes\non under the same conditions of sylvan beauty, of glorious weather, and\nof perfect protection, and alas, to\nthink also that here, where every\nprospect pleases, that man alone is\nvile. And yet, to be truthful, I am\nbound to declare the appalling fact.\nIn the present instance the vileness\nconsists of profane language which I\nregret to say can be heard only too\nfrequently. There is no excuse for it,\nand therefore when I say that it is\npot vicious but only thoughtless, I\nhope my readers will not think that\nI am trying to palliate the offence. It\nonly tends to show into what bad\nhabits too many of our fellow citizens have fallen, and I do think it is a\ncrying shame that ladies and children,\ndotted around here and there in tbe\nhappy throng which surrounds the\nbandstand, should be compelled to\noverhear disgusting language. It\njnust be stopped, and I think if the\npark attendants were instructed to\nkeep their ears open and to warn\nany offenders that they are committing a breach of the law, the warning\nwould probably have the desired\neffect. If not, justice demands that\nthe Police Magistrate should be called\non to intervene.\n*   *   *\nThe growth of Victoria involves\nmany changes, and these changes are\nnot confined to the building pf skyscrapers and blocks They involve\nthe coming in of thousands of people\n,who have gravitated naturally to the\nrnost beautiful residential city on the\ncontinent. But this influx of newcomers changes the complexion of\naffairs in many respects. We find\nnew names in the social column; new\nnames among the lists of tradesmen,\nand new names among those who\ntake a prominent part in public affairs.\nEveryone regrets the passing of old\nlandmarks, and it will not be without the revival of many an oldtime\nreminiscence that the public will learn\nthat the restaurant business which, for\nhalf a century, 'has been carried on\nby a member of the Levy family, has\nnow passed into other hands, a restaurant which, for half a century, has\nbeen the best known in the city, must\nbe a place of note. With advancing\nyears and accumulating wealth, the\n-original proprietor, Mr. Henry Levy,\nrelinquished the business to his son,\nand now the son is seeking more congenial occupation and 'has turned it\nover to two old-timers, well and favourably known in Victoria, Messrs.\nMcManus and Coopman. It is no reflection on Mr. Levy to say that the\nbusiness will be carried on as well\n,as ever and as the name is to bc retained, there is no reason why anyone would realize the change. Personally I hope that this time-honoured\nbusiness will take on a new lease of\nlife, for it fills a niche in the social\neconomy of things which is all its\nown.\nI suppose it would be expecting too\nmuch to ask that tradesmen would\nco-operate in thc matter of advertising their businesses. And yet one\nsometimes finds the most incongruous results from a failure to do this.\nIt is easy to conceive that a man\n,who sells drinks and nothing else\n.might put a notice in his window to\nthe effect that next door the best eatables in town might be found, or vice\nversa. The shoe merchant might direct his customer to a store a few\ndoors away where he could buy good\n.apparel, and so on all down the line.\nBut I question whether Victoria is\nnot the only city where the public\nare reminded every day of the fact\nthat next door to a popular undertaking establishment is a tradesmen\nwho displays conspicuously in his\nwindow a large placard containing the\nmystic announcement, \"U. R. Next.\"\nPersonally, I hope not.\n\u2022tf     #     *\nI suppose that the most popular\nthing I could do at the present moment would be to join in the hue and\ncry for the scalp of the B. C. E. R.,\nif it has a scalp, a circumstance which\nmay reasonably be doubted if there\nis any truth in the old proverb that\ncorporations have no souls to save\nand no bodies to kick. I hold no\nbrief for the B. C. E. R. Indeed, I\nhave a very long-standing grievance\nagainst them, because although I have\nbeen on the staff of The Week for\nnearly ten years, they have consistently refused to give me a pass on\nthe ground that they do not wish to\ninfluence The Lounger column. Under these circumstances I think that\nno one will accuse me of being too\nfavourably disposed towards the company. Yet I unhesitatingly aver that\nthere is nowhere in the West a better\nservice. They are far from perfect;\nthey are very slow to get a move on;\nthey haven't the least idea how fast\nVictoria is growing; and their contribution, in the shape of a few new\ncars and a few miles of track laying,\nwhile it may look quite important to\nthem, is but a drop in the bucket compared to what is required. But all\nthis is rather beside what I set out to\nsay, and that is, that since I pay five\ncents every time I ride in a car, I\nthink I am entitled to several things\nwhich I do not get. The first is a\nseat. I have kept careful note of the\nlast hundred rides I have had in a\ntram car and find that only on seven\noccasions have I been able to get a\nseat. On the other occasions I have\nsometimes held on to a strap, but as\na rule have been jammed in by a\nseething crowd, which filled the vestibule and passageway. I claim that\nthe B. C. E. R. should be compelled\nto do the same in Victoria as is done\nin many of the American cities, sell\nstrap-holders' tickets. In this way I\nshould save at least fifty per cent,\nof my modest contribution, and at any\nrate I should not be paying for what\nI did not get. The next thing I pay\nfor and fail to get every time I ride\non a tram car is ventilation. I hesitate to inflict on the sensitive public\nany detailed description of the condition of the atmosphere in a tram\ncar from which forty or fifty Chinamen and other foreigners have just\nbeen unloaded. The imagination can\nfigure the gap, especially if one pictures a hard day's work, with its inevitable physical and unsanitary results, and then remembers that as a\nrule all the windows and ventilators\nare kept closed. On Thursday last,\nwhen such a car arrived at the junction of Fort and Government, a party\nof >five commenced to enter. They\nall drew back and decided to wait for\nanother car. One lady, almost frantically exclaimed, \"I can never stand\nthat stench.\" My final complaint is\nof the paradoxical order, and it is\nthat I often get what I do not pay\nfor in the shape of a choice collection\nof floating dust, well impregnated\nwith disease   germs,   which nothing\nbut negligence on the part of the\ncleaners-out allows to remain. I have\nseveral times suggested that oiling\nand disinfecting should be resorted\nto. This is done regularly in the cars\nrun by the same Company from Vancouver to New Westminster, and I\ndo not see why it should not be done\nin Victoria.\n*   *   *\nI have on several occasions referred to the high price of fruit and\nvegetables in Victoria and the vast\nimprovement in this respect which I\nhoped would follow the construction\nof an electric railway through Saanich\nPeninsula. This work is now under\nway and the railway will be in operation during the present year. This\nis a boon for which, in common with\nall Victorians, I tender my sincere\nthanks to the directors and manager\nof the B. C. E. R. Meanwhile, however, I would like to point out the\nenormous advantage of a motor car\ndelivery, such for instance as that\nwhich has been established by the\nFarmers' Exchange. Here we have a\ntrue co-operative movement under\nwhich the produce of a number of\nfarms ds collected daily and rushed into the city, all sweet and fresh. In\nfact, it is just about as good as stepping into your own back garden and\ncutting or pulling your own vegetables. And not only does the Farmers Exchange bring in the produce,\nincluding dairy produce, and garden\ntruck, and store it at 618 Johnson\nstret, but it delivers to any point in\nthe city. I feel sure that these facts\nonly have to become widely known to\nresult in extensive patronage for a\nsystem which is almost ideal, and\nwhich will go far to solve one of the\nknottiest problems we have to deal\nwith.\nLOUNGER\nA SNAP\nTwin Cylinder 3-h.p.

Billy Chase is an\namusing fellow with a lot of nonsense which goes down well. \"His\nAwful Nightmare\" is a sketch which\naffords Miss Clifton to make protean\nchanges in marvellously quick time\nand is sufficiently funny to keep the\nhouse laughing. The Guy Brothers\nhave been proving themselves comic\nblack-face men with a musical bent\nwhilst the Barrows duo present a\ndainty dancing and singing turn.\nThe Crystal Theatre\nThe experiment initiated this week\nof combining vaudeville with moving\npictures has proved an unparalleled\nsuccess, and the management of the\nCrystal Theatre are worthy of all congratulation for having made the venture. Every night this week the\nhouse has been packed and the vaudeville turns introduced have been of a\nvery high standard. The pictures,\nwhich are still the main attraction,\nmaintain thi. reputation which the\nBroad Street house has gained for itself. Remember that the pictures\nchange three times a week, as before,\nand the vaudeville turns change twice,\non Monday and Thursday.\nThe Majestic Theatre\nConsidering the number of people\nthere are in the town who dote on\npeanuts, it is rather wonderful that\nso few knew how they grow, but during the course of an instructive picture at the Majestic this week, showing the peanut industry, the casual\nlistener could hear all sorts of remarks from folk who imagined that\nthe nut grew on a tree. In view of\nthis the picture referred to provided\na little much-needed education. \"The\nHospital Baby,\" which was one of the\nbig features during the middle of the\nweek, proved to be a big drawing card\nand well deserved the appreciation\nwith which it was received.\nRomano's Theatre\n\"A Leap for Love\" was the title of\na thrilling drama represented on the\nRomano screen this week, and showed\na hazardous leap from the Brooklyn\nBridge. Another big feature, \"The\nQuality of Mercy,\" which was a big\n3,000 foot film, dealt most realistically with love and despair. Romano's\nmay always be depended on for some\nspecialty every week and the full\nhouses are a guarantee that the public have not failed to realise this.\nRebecca of Sunnybrook Farm\nIt has remained for Kate Douglas\nWiggin to teach the greatest lesson\nand to give the most finished picture\nthat is seen on the stage today in her\ncomedy, \"Rebecca of Sunnybrook\nFarm,\" the dramatization of her \"Rebecca\" books, both of which had a\ncirculation of upwards of a million\ncopies. Mrs. Wiggin has caught thc\nspirit of New England with its grim\ngrip on the realities of life and its\nstern philosophy of living. And\nagainst a background of the bleak,\ndrear, uneventful lives of its people\nshe has set a group of youngsters,\nchief among them is the little Rebecca, a tempestuous, sprite who struggles against the bounds and bonds\nthat are placed about her and overcomes obstacles, winning finally love\nand joy and warmth even in the Puritan hearts of her family and companions.

THE WEEK, SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1912\nThe Week\nA Provincial Newspaper and Review\npubliahed every Saturday by\n\"The Week\" Publishing\nCompany, Limited\nPublished  at  1208  Government  St.,\nVictoria, B.C., Canada\nWILLIAM BLAKEMORE, Editor\nTruth and\nFiction\nBy Bohemian\nIn a review by one of the ablest\nAmerican reviewers on a recent book,\nwhich I hope to deal with in next\nissue, a remark is made to the effect\nthat upon the reader's judgment of\nthe latter portion of the book would\ndepend whether he classed it as a\nvaluable literary work or a \"fake.\"\nThe circumstances that led the reviewer to this reflection are something like these:\nA woman with a \"past\" and the\nusual checkered career of a \"temperamental,\" finally met a man for whom\nshe conceived a pure affection and\nwhom she could love. Then arose in\nher mind that eternal battle between\nduty and inclination: Was she in\nhonour bound to tell him of her past?\nCould she go to him with clean hands,\nhowever pure and sweet her affection,\nallow him to reciprocate her love, and\nyet keep him in ignorance of the fact\nthat in the past she had made a similar surrender?\nOf course, on the ethics of the\nquestion, there can be but one answer. No one with a sense of honour\ncould do other than lay all the cards\non the table. To attempt to hide the\nsecret would but be a subterfuge and\na juggling with one's chances of happiness. Nothing could hide it permanently because even if the facts\ndid not leak out, Nature takes her\nown revenge for duplicity of this\ncharacter, and a man of any sensitiveness could not fail to discern by\nmany subtle evidences what was be-\n. ing so carefully kept in the background.\nIn the case under consideration,\nthe woman was not strong enough to\nbe honest, but she did the next best\nthing. She had thc decency not to\ntake the fatal plunge, however attractive it might have appeared, and instead she went away and never saw\nhim again. Time rolled on, and to\nsome extent, as it always does, assuaged the poignancy of her grief.\nThen she had an uncontrollable desire to give him an opportunity of\nlearning the truth. So she sat down\nto write the story of her life in truly\ninimitable style. She does not sign\nthe document, but she uses initials\nwhich may or may not be genuine.\nIt would appear, however, from the\npreface, that she relied upon some\nstray chance flinging this \"jetsam\" of\nthe literary world at his feet in some\nfar-away land, and trusted to his recognizing the story as autobiographical since he would be familiar with\nsome of its  incidents.\nThe suggestion of the interviewer\nset me thinking. Which is stranger,\ntruth or fiction? We have been told\nby the wiseacres, time and again, that\ntruth is the stranger, and the ionger\nI live the more I am convinced that\nin this respect the wiseacres are right.\nI have never yet read a dramatic incident in the most dramatic work of\nfiction that I have not been able to\ncap with some human experience\nwhich has come to my knowledge,\nand the remarkable career of the\nauthor of the book referred to is not\nonly no more remarkable than some\nI have known, but even in its most exceptional and sensational features\ndoes not transcend them.\nThe problem whicii confronted this\nwoman has confronted many women,\nthough the majority have not had\nher strength of .character. They havc\nlacked fhe courage to deny themselves the \"cup of bliss,\" but have taken\nit under the delusion that t'hey could\nsuccessfully hide their secret, and\nthat at any rate as they had burned\ntheir boats and cut loose from the\npast, it would never trouble them\nagain.\nBut there is no more unquiet ghost\nthan the spectre of the past. Moreover, he is a subtle and a cunning\nghost, for he will lie quiet for a time\nand lull his victims into a sense of\nsecurity only once more to leave his\ncharnel house and \"revisit the\nglimpses of the moon.\"\nThe spectre of the past is never laid\nand the moment of his reappearance\nis often that of one's greatest sense\nof security. We talk about the fatuity of ostriches, but there are no\nostriches like human ostriches; none\nso absolutely blind; none so absolutely defenceless. If it were possible for\npeople to cease the attempt to delude\nthemselves, there would be far less\neffort to mislead others.\nThe authoress of the book I have\nreferred to illustrates the truth of my\nargument in a remarkable manner.\nWhile she did \"the square thing\"\nwith t'he man she loved by refusing\nto insult him by an act of deception,\nwhich, if he had known, would have\ncaused him to shrink from her, still she\nfound as the years went on that her\nsense of justice demanded that he\nshould at least have a chance of\nknowing why s'he had turned from\nwhat might have been her cup of\nhappiness, and so she wrote this book\nto ease her conscience, and while it is\nin every sense a striking and even a\nremarkable production, I still maintain that there are episodes in real\nlife, some of which I have known,\nand others which will doubtless occur\nto my readers, which are at least as\nreplete with human interest and as\nconfirmatory of the old proverb that\ntruth is still stranger than fiction.\nWhat's in a Name\nThere's a good deal in a name, a\ngood or bad name usually .connects\nup with a good or bad idea and not\ninfrequently either is used or misused as the fulcrum of that lever the\nmeans towards an end; properly used\nand in good hands a name can do a\npower of good, fortunately in unscrupulous hands the bad soon shows up\nthe effort is short-lived, lacks stamina\nand the mis-use and abuse furnish an\nobject lesson, often beneficial.\nMost of us gifted with ideas at\nleast hope those ideas are good\nthough success is delayed in the results; optimists regard it as a good\nworld and will say 75 per cent, of\nus are good pessimists may argue\nthat more than the same percentage\nare bad whilst the average level-headed man is content to leave it at 50\nper cent, either way. Let us hope\nat least that when in jest our merry\nthoughts are agents for good and\nthat a bad name may merely convey\na paradox. We have no need for\nchasing malice, that game is best left\nwith the individual whom it is waste\nof time to know.\nOftener than we think we are face\nto face with a paradox so let us\ncheerfully regard it as such and remember that dear old General Booth,\nprobably still enjoying birthday congratulations, is a victim to a paradox\nsince his name is linked to his chief\npeace agent the \"War Cry.\" We all\nwish him well over his eye operation\nand may he live to see many years\nyet in each sense of the word and\nat the same time reserving all his\nsenses aud faculties.\nWe unfortunately, have to cater too\noften for the \"touchy,\" or for those\nunfortunates who misapply their conscience, otherwise our courses would\nbe plain sailing enough.\nLet us employ good sound, straightforward English and spell it properly.\nWe can surely be up to date in all\nour ideas without having to chase\nAmerican twang and slang with gold\nold English letters\u2014if we give way\nto such rubbish we shall soon have\nto mount extra letters to imitate satisfactorily a tongue that is fast developing into jibberish.\nThe good old Paris \"chestnut\" displayed in a Palais royal shop window\n\"English Spoken\"\n\"American Understood\"\nhas long passed its 25th birthday.\nThe world is still moving and not\nslower since than before then.\nWe have no wish to be too antiquated and all become profound\nscholars of Greek or Latin in these\ngo ahead days\u2014but let us enjoy life\nand be at least self supporting with\nour fair share of health and wealth\nto make us happy at the age of forty\nwith the hope of still some years to\ncome instead of toothless wrecks with\nno digestion, and either All or No\nnerves!\nWell, to keep to our subject, a name\nconveys at least one idea, at least\none idiom and it is the idiom of a\nnation that characterises that nation;\nwith the Roman it was \"Ego et Rex\nmeus\"\u2014shall we say \"self first the rest\nnowhere?\" With us it is at least \"you\nand I\" or \"play the game\" shall we\nsay\u2014in America Roman law\u2014let us\nhope in Greater Britain English at\nleast.\nIn the up-bringing of our youth let\nus not give way to absurd excuses\nwhich can only stand in the way of\njust causes and proper progress and\nprosperity.\nLet us do all we can to support\nsuch excellent institutions as the Boy\nScout Movement and make it as material as ever we can and not regard it with that wrong idea that has\nsprung up in the U. S. A. that it is a\nmovement hostile to peace which\nGeneral Baden Powell has had so recently to explain away; and when\nLord Charles Beresford comes to\nraise his \"Naval\" or Maratime Scouts,\nas he shortly will do on his visit to\nthis Island in connection with the\nNavy League, let us respond to his\nappeal and give it every encouragement. Keep at least in view Defence\nnot Defiance, and if there is anything\nin the titles suggesting any repulsive\nidea of fighting, after all\u2014What's in\na Name?\nC.  B.

Before the introduction of the first\nHome Rule bill Mr. Gladstone announced, upon several occasions, that\nthe question of Home Rule would not\nbe considered until crime and outrage was stamped out in Ireland!\nThere was then a slight pause, but\neventually no improvement, which\ndid not prevent the introduction of\nthe Bill.\nThe real \"men\" of Ireland were and\nare expected notwithstanding, by such\nas Mr. Churchill and his allies, to\nmeekly look on and thankfully accept\nHome Rule upon the guarantee of\nWhilom instigators of murder and\noutrage.\nThere is not the smallest doubt of\nhistory  repeating  itself   when   these'\nmen of the \"motley half\" see anything\nelse worth sqeezing; out of England.\n\"FLASHLIGHT.\"\nPIG SEWAGE TO DRINK\nVictoria, April 18th, 1912.\nTo the Editor of The Week:\nSir,\u2014It very much surprises me to\nfind how indifferent Victoria people\nare to the revelations of the last few\ndays\u2014the statements concerning the\nwater supply from Elk Lake and Bea\nver Lake\u2014given by The Week and\n(he subsequent revelations in the Police Court confirming the most disgusting item in these statements. For\ntwo and a half years this has been\ngoing on and the lakes are now well\nsaturated with pig sewage and other\nabominations. The City authorities\nmay well be alarmed. Some of them\nseem to think because we have had\nno serious outbreak of disease therefore it is safe enough.\nHe is not the only man who has\nthought so. Graveyards sixty years\nago were connected with the church\u2014\nand wells were sunk near to them.\nThey got to be called in Catholic districts \"Ladywells.\" I knew one such\nwell a few hundred feet from the\nboundary of the burying ground and\npeople came considerable distances to\nget soft water to brew their tea. Tea\nwas then $1.25 a pound. But in this\nneighbourhood we had two notable\nmen. Dalton, a member of the Society of Friends, and Joule. These\nmade atoms their particular study.\nThey discovered that the softness of\nthe water came from the grave yard\nand this one was closed by authority.\nI think other \"Ladywells\" were closed\nbut am not quite certain. Rev. Mr.\nBeanlands knew all about these\n\"Ladywells,\" but although this one\nwas mentioned in conversation, we\ndid not follow it up. This water\nmight have pleased our Water Com\nmissioner, to judge from recent proceedings, and the account we get of\nSooke water, is that it has millions\n*of live wrigglers. These, in time,\nwill be dead wrigglers.\nThe Colonist recently published a\npaper as to the tendency of decayed\nanimal matter in producing dangerous bacteria. Did the Colonist make\nits selection in consideration of our\nown situation? Who reported on the\nquality of Sooke Lake water?- The\nWater Commissioner says he can produce it clear and bright, I think\nsomething more is wanted.\nT have written enough to make sensible people sit up and think ahout\nour supply of drinking water for the\nnext two or three years, and as to\nSooke, read the article in the Colonist\non the danger from decayed animal\nmatter and ponder that. I don't pretend to be an authority on these matters, but I have stated a few facts\nand my own opinion 1 have indicated.\nF. ANGUS.\nThe Gymkhana\nThe Gymkhana held at the Willows\ntrack on Saturday afternoon was only\na qualified success. This was solely\ndue to lack of system and management. If the affair had been properly\norganized, the attendance would easily have been a thousand, and possibly\ntwo thousand, while the number of\ncontestants could have been doubled\nif not trebled. I am adopting this\ncritical attitude because , I consider\nthat those responsible for this class\nof entertainment are throwing their\nchances away. Twenty years ago a\nGymkhana was at once the most\npopular, the most fashionable, and the\nmost successful open-air entertainment given in Victoria. Today it is\nthe resort of a few stragglers, who\nfondly hope that they may see a little\nof the fun of former days. There are\nplenty of people in Victoria who love\nthis form of amusement, and who\nwould gladly co-operate to make it a\nsuccess if they were afforded an opportunity. I want to make a few suggestions, which, if carried out, will\nundoubtedly result in such a gathering as has not been seen for many\nyears, and will correspondingly gladden the hearts of those who organize\nit. Now for my suggestions. First\nof all there should be a committee of\nladies and gentlemen, say about seven.\nThe members of the committee should\npersonally and by letter solicit the\nco-operation of people who have good\nhorses and who would be likely to\ntake an interest in the affair. Having\nsecured a sufficient number of entries,\nthe same or another committee should\nundertake the arrangements of the\nday and systematize them so that\nthere would be no wearisome delays.\nPost entries should be prohibited.\nNothing is more tantalizing than for\nthe officials not to know until the last\nminute who is going to compete.  En\ntries   should  close,  at  any  rate,\nnight before, and all the contest\nshould be properly scheduled,\ncials should be detailed to look\neach department on the ground t(\nthat hurdles, rings, standards, bo\nand all the other requisite parai\nnalia is at the right place when\nwanted.   I   would  also  suggest\nsomebody should  make an  effoi\nhave some proper hurdles of a\nmanent character constructed,\nthing    more    poverty-stricken\nthose used last Saturday I neverl\nLet  the    promoters    \"buck up.l\nwould undertake to tell them, 0$\nreel,   at   least   a   dozen   people I\nwould  have entered last Saturdl\nthey  had been  asked,  but  unfo\nately  the  impression   seems  to |\ngot out that the affair is  run\nsmall \"clique\" and that outsider)\nnot   wanted.   Apart   from  this L\ncism I would like to comment I\nthe    excellent    riding   \"and    g<|\nhorsemanship of some of the co|\nants, notably Mrs. Cox, Miss\nMiss   Holden,  Miss  Pemberton!\nMessrs. Pemberton, Linton, Mcfl\nand Crawford.   Some of the Jul\nwas really first class, and it iff\nsince I have seen a prettier ponj\nhurdles than Mr. McEvoy's.\nUMPl\nHOCKEY  CLUB  BALI\nThe annual    ball  of    the\nHockey  Club    will  be    held\nAlexandra Hall on Friday, Apri\nThis popular function is in the\nof a strong committee, who a\ntermined   to   make   it   if   poss\ngreater  success    than    usual,\nhave   secured   the   services   of\nThain's orchestra which will pi;\nlatest dance music.

A\nrnment commission has examined the situation, reported it dan-\nlis, and advised the removal of the town. Frank's familiarity with\nmountain may have bred contempt, for we have not heard that its\n[le have begun to pack. The town is urged to move without delay.\nIrwise disaster will result. The government commission thinks\nhinder present commercial conditions, it is not possible to mine\n|n a certain area without incurring the danger of precipitating a\nlandslide. They say that the only conditions under which mining\nJd be carried on in the danger area above described are: (1) The\n(site should be abandoned and the risk to the property of the Cana-\n1 Pacific Railway assumed. (2) The present entrance to No. 1\n|t) mine should be abandoned and the mine should be operated by\nlevels from the shaft mine or from an opening at the extreme\n|iern end of the property in the vicinity of Hillcrest. (3) Unusually\npillars should be left throughout the danger area, particularly in\nlipper levels, and not more than 50 per cent, of the coal should\nItracted.    (4) The excavated areas should be packed.\nTaking into account: (a) The steepness of the'eastern slope of\nlie Mountain; (b) its peculiar structure, ancl especially the atti-\n1 of the joint planes (planes of scission); (_\u2022) the possibility of\njnal stresses, inherited from the period of original upheaval;\nlthe effect of highly possible jars on the delicate mechanism of this\nIcular mountain (jars of a moderate earthquate, like that of 1901\nlis region, or slight settlement of the mine workings might preci-\nResidence  Phone F1693\nBusiness Phone 1804\nW.D'0.RoeWort\nArchitect\nPlans and Specifications on\nApplication\nSuite 407 Pemberton Block\nThe\nTaylor Mill Co.\nLimited\nAU kinds of Building Material\nLumber   . \u2022   Sash   .'

THE WEEK, SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1912\npitate a slide of the first order; (e) the strong similarity of the conditions now to those immediately preceding the slide of 1903; (\/) the\nspecial danger to the stability of the North Peak block induced by the\n1903 slide; (<\/) the evidence of the recent development of fissures in\nthe North Peak, and (h) the difficulty of forecasting the exact course\nof the threatened slide or slides, the commission is agreed on the\nfollowing conclusions:\u2014\nIrrespective of mining operations ancl because of existing conditions only, there is danger of a disastrous landslide from Turtle\nMountain. They are agreed that danger exists from what has hitherto\nbeen called the North Park block.\nThe present shaft and mine buildings surrounding the townsite,\nalso the row of houses to the north-west of it, appear to be reasonably\nsafe from the effect of a slide from Turtle Mountain. Practically\nall the rest of the townsite should be done whether the mine is\noperated in the danger zone or not, on account of the unstable condition,\nfrom natural causes, of the North and South peaks. Whatever the\nreport of this or other commission, the town can never be an important\none on its present site, since there will always remain the dread of\nanother calamitous slide like that of 1903. In spite of undoubted\nindividual hardship, caused by abandonment of the present site, the\ntown, on a new and safe site, might prosper as never before. The\npeople of Frank must move. Canada would rather admire them for\ntheir present caution than sympathize with future disaster.\nPANAMA CANAL WILL HELP CANADIAN RAILROADS\nMr. William McNab, principal assistant engineer of the Grand\nTrunk Railway system, recently returned to Montreal from the Panama\nCanal, where he went for the purpose of inspecting the engineering\nplant used, as well as other features connected with the undertaking.\n\"In regard to the economics of commerce,\" said Mr. McNab,\n\"there can be little doubt but that the canal will in general create an\nentirely new situation. Its operation will not only form new geographical features and substantially modify the complexity of the world's\ncommerce but it will be an element of such importance that its influence\nwill be universally felt in a more or less degree in every branch of\ntrade. The North will be nearer and in closer relationship to the\nSouth and the South will be closer to the North. The Central American republics, too, which hitherto have been an uncertain feature in\nmodern business ancl social life, will be found to fall in line with and\nshare in such development. The fruit districts of Central America\nand the West Indies will also undergo rapid expansion in meeting\nthe new.order of things.\n\"It is unnecessary at present to quote saving in distance in certain\nexisting sailing routes which will be effected after the canal is in use.\nIt is obvious, among other things, that rapid growth of Pacific ports\nmay be looked for.\n\"In regard to how the several transcontinental railways will be\naffected by the existence of the canal and the traffic it will carry, it is\nobvious that the most northerly ones will specially derive a direct\nbenefit from it. The wheat fields of Western Canada are practically\nonly beginning business, ancl at no far distant date will be a main source\nof supply of breadstuff's for not only Europe, btit for the Southern\nStates and West Indies as well. The problem of handling the fall\ncrops in one direction within a reasonable time will then be felt. The\nGrand Trunk Pacific with its low gradients will be in a position to\ndistribute its business to advantage, and take westward from Saskatchewan and Alberta a fair share of the agricultural output of these\nprovinces for shipment via Prince Rupert ancl the canal.\"\nCROW'S NEST PASS COAL COMPANY\nNo financial \"report was presented at the annual meeting of the\nCrow's Nest Pass Coal Company. A strike was in progress for eight\nmonths of the year, during which time the mines were non-productive,\nand prior to the reimposition of the duties on coal early in December\nthe Western market was flooded with the American product. It is\nstated the outlook is satisfactory, and that the output in January and\nFebruary was about the same as a year ago.\nOPPORTUNITIES\nThe Opportunities in Red Deer- Alta.\nToday' for making Quick profits are greater than any\nother town in Western Canada today\u2014Why?

F. ARMSTRONG,\nActing Comptroller of Water Rights,\nmch. 23 apl 20 THE WEEK, SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1912\nIn The Black Maria\nAn Episode\u2014Related by Thomas\nTottenham\nWhat I went to Brixton for matters\nto nobody. This story is that of a\nfellow-victim of the meshes of the\nlaw. He rode in the compartment\nnext to mine of the Black Maria from\nBow Street, both of us having been\ncommitted for trial on the same day.\n\"Cheer up,\" said a voice .over the\ntop of the partition on my left. 1\nturned, and saw looking into mine a\npair of kindly eyes. The man was of\nartisan class, bua like a criminal not\nat all. But, then, as I now know,\ncriminals, outside journals of \"information and amusement,\" never are\nlike criminals, until prison makes\nthem so. And we were first offenders pending trial.\n\"Cheer up,\" again said the voice.\n\"Look at me. Do I look downhearted? No. And mine's six months\nfor sure.\"\n\"First time?\" I asked.\n\"Yes.   Worse luck.\"\n\"Worse luck?\" I confronted the\ngentle eyes again, in surprise.\n\"If it 'adn't been the first time, I\nwouldn't be 'ere now.\"\n\"You mean that\u2014that you would\nnever offend twice? We all think\nthat.\"\n\"No. I don't mean that. 1 mean\nthat the reason why I'm 'ere now is\nthat I 'aven't been 'ere before. In\nother words, if I 'ad been 'ere before.\nI wouldn't be 'ere now.\"\nI* looked uneasily round the Black\nMaria, but the inspector in charge\ndid not seem to be listening. Clrearly\nmy neighbour was either a lunatic, or\na paradoxist out of place.\n\"You think I'm daft, I can see,\" he\nwent on. \"But I ain't, on my honour.\nI'm the victim of circumstances. I'll\npitch yer the yarn, if we've time. I'm\ncharged with stealin' a box of five\n'undred cigarettes. Why did I steal\n'em? In order, sir, that I might be\nsent to prison and thereby prepare\nthe way to earn 'enceforth a honest\nlivelihood. I've tried to do so for\nthe last six months, but my luck's out.\nWhy? Because I 'adn't never before\nbeen to pmson. Now, when I've\ndone my six months, I'll be no longer\nopen to the 'orrible suspicion of bein'\na' ex-convict 'oo's never done time.\"\nI sighed wearily. Evidently a subtle\nand complex humorist of the kind one\nmight tolerate from the stalls of a\ntheatre after a good dinner, but not\nfrom a seat in the Black Maria after\nnone at all.\n\"Six months ago I was out of a\njob. I've done a rare lot of bein' out\nof work in my time. But never before 'ad any motive for gettin' into\ntrouble. Always managed to 'ave a\nkind aunt, or brother or sister, or to\nmeet a kind-'earted friend. Not beg-\ngin', you understand. Just, shall I\nsay, coaxin', and 'avin' what people\nsay is a winnin' and 'umorous way\nwith me. Also, a 'ighly developed\nfaculty for spinnin' yarns. Six months\nago there was an advertisement in\nthe leadin' dailies, which read like\nthis: 'To Discharged Prisoners.\u2014A\ngentleman of means is anxious to assist one to gain employment.\u2014Address, etc., etc' Now, it so 'appencd\nthat I 'ad a pal named Fred 'Uggins,\nwhat 'ad been pinched for stealin'\nboots, but on gettin' 'is discharge, 'e\nwent off to America.\"\n\"Ex-convicts aren't allowed to\nland,\" I interrupted.\n\"As I subsequently 'ad reason to\nknow. But to resoom. To answer\nthis letter, I borrowed Fred's name\nand antecedents. Thinkin' e'd never\nbe 'eard of again, I told 'is pitiful\nstory as my own, and in a day or\ntwo I was invited to call on the gentleman. 'E turned out to be a well-\nknown novelist\u2014no matter 'oo. He\nsaw at once\u2014wonderful shrewd men,\nnovelists\u2014that mine was a boner-fide\ncase (as it was, except for the triflin'\nchange in the matter of name and\nidentity). 'E said that in a day or\ntwo I should 'ear of a job. Thc only\nthing I was to do was to take it, do\nmy work, and be perfectly candid\nabout my past. No sanctimonious\n'umbug. Say I'd stolen the boots;\nsay I'd done the time; say I was\nsorry, and so on.\n\"The job was that of packer in a\ncigarette factory, the bos sof which\nwas a pal of the novelist's. Wages a\nquid a week. And very nice work,\ntoo. The cigarette was a noo one\nof 'igh class, and I got a perfect passion for it. None of yer nasty cheap\nfags for me now.\"\n\"You're not likely to be bothered\nwith them now,\" I said.\n\"I went on with my work, and I\nliked it. My boss thought the world\nof me. Used to come and want to\n'ear all about prison life, and the\ntreatment of the criminal, and so on\nand so forth. Bein' a homnivorous\nreader of the popular weekly press, I\nwas aWe to make 'is 'air curl and 'is\nface blanch with tales of sufferin',\nbrutal warders, punishment cells, the\ncat, and, of course, the evil influence\nof one's feller-convicts. Though, now\nas I come to look some of 'em over,\nthey all look as though they were\nmore fit for Y.M.C.A.'s. But I digress. I went on workin' 'ard, and\ngivin' satisfaction, until one day there\nwalked into the ware'ouse a man of\nthe name of Fred 'Uggins.\"\nHe paused, so that as we passed\nthe Brixton Bon Marche I got the\nfull dramatic value out of the revelation.\n\"'E asked to see the boss, and as 'e\nwas shown in, 'e gave me a look that\nwent right through me.\n\"I assoomed that 'e knew what 'e\nlooked as though 'e knew. It was\none of those great moments in which\na man sees 'is 'ole future in a flash,\nsir, and acts accordin'. I knew that,\nafter 'is interview with the real Simon\nPure\u2014or should I say Impure\u2014the\nboss would come and probably kick\nme out. Apart from my natural 'orror\nof personal violence, I 'ad a presentment of 'is kind face ablaze with fury,\nand of the burnin' words of contempt\nwhich 'e would 'url at one 'oo 'ad\nposed as a dishonest man when 'e was\nall the time' nothin' of the kind\u2014a\nman 'oo had pretended to be a ex-\nconvict and abused the privileges of\nthat class. No! It was too much\nfor me. The desire to be boner-fide\neven in evil overcame me. So I\npicked up a box of five 'undred cigarettes and bolted as 'ard as I could\nrun, and was a genuine thief for the\nfirst time in my life. I got as far\nas the other side of Waterloo Bridge,\nwhen I was 'eld up by a copper. From\nthence, it was a short distance to\nBow Street, where I lodged the night.\nAnd 'ere I am, you see. A boner-fide\ncriminal at last. Now you understand\nwhat I mean when I say that the reason why I'm 'ere is because I 'aven't\nbeen 'ere before, and that if I 'ad\nbeen 'ere before, I wouldn't be,'ere\nnow.\"\n\"You're an unmitigated humbug,\" I\nsaid\u2014we were getting near the prison.\n\"You deserve to be acquitted.\"\n\"Not likely, sir. The law 'as many\ngood qualities, but 'umour is not\namong 'em.\"\nCALL AGAIN\n\"I understand that you called on the com-\nplainai.t. Is that so?\" demanded the browbeating barrister of a man he was cross-\nexamining. \"Yes,\" replied the witness.\n\"What did he say?\" Counsel for the other\nside eagerly objected that evidence as to a\nconversation was not admissible, and half an\nhour's argument ensued. Then the magistrates retired to consider the point, announcing on their return some time later\nthat they deemed the question a proper\none. \"Well, what did the plaintiff say?\" repeated the cross-examining barrister. \"He\nweren't at home, sir,\" was the answer.\nFENCING\nA painter worked three months on a painting. He spent a good deal of money on\nmodels, but the finished product justified\nali his expenditures and all his time. Everybody told him t vhen his picture was exhibited. Everybody but one.

Several nights\nleek there was not a vacant seat,\nand \"Jimmy\" Morgan was kept trotting around in his most energetic\nstyle. There is no doubt that the\nmusical programme is one of the-\nchief attractions at the Westholme,\nand everyone is loud in their praises\nof the splendid programme which\nProfessor Turner continues to furnish for his patrons. The vocal music\nis unexceptionable and equal to any\non the Coast. The orchestra might\neasily be strengthened, but that is another story. It's a safe bet that the\nman who goes to the Westholme and\nspends a dollar on a meal gets his\nmeal for nothing, with the music put\non a very moderate valuation.\nPAPER BAG COOKERY\nGourmets declare that the problem\nof cooking is solved by paper bag\ncookery; that apart from the other\nscientific aspects of the question,\ncooking in bags eliminates all smell,\nall waste, and ensures an unspoilt dinner. There is the other important\nconsideration that it is a great time-\nsaver and makes cooking a pleasure\ninstead of a task.

Hannels is a role I should\nhave loved to do, but I cannot now\nbecause I have seen it. I never play\na part that I have seen anyone else\nplay. It spoils my picture. I could\nstill work out my own conception of\nthe role, but the impression of the\nother would be a blur. When I am\nstudying a role, I read it very carefully. Then I put it away and never\nspeak about it or consciously think\nabout it. I give the character a lodging in my brain, and there it must\nstay and work itself out. Some\nmornings I wake up with delight and\nfind it clearly defined. But some\ncharacters never work themselves out.\nIf they don't, I cannot play them, for\nno amount of study would help me\nany. I know every part in all my\nplays. I seem to learn them unconsciously as a background for my own\nrole. Then the constant rehearsals\nmake it almost impossible not to\nknow them. By the time I have\nfinished rehearsals the copy of my\nrole is not legible. I scribble over it\nevery idea that comes to me until the\nlines are obliterated. I shouldn't feel\na role was good if I could read it\nwhen rehearsals are ended. But that\nisn't a superstition, just a habit. In\nRussia there are many superstitions,\nthough. One is that three candles\nmust never be burning in the dressing-room. Another that no one must\nWhistle on the stage, and if anyone\nlooks in the glass with you\u2014well, I\ndon't know what would happen, but I\nhave been assured it would be unfortunate. None of these affects me; I\nhave just one foolish notion,\u2014about\ndropping my part. If it falls from\nmy hand during rehearsal I allow no\none to pick it up, because I must sit\ndown on it first, I know the play\nwould be a failure. My idea. of dividing the twenty-four hours is ten\nfor sleep and fourteen for work.\nThen when vacation time comes I\nspend as much time as I can outdoors, just being lazy. But when I\n\u2022 am on duty I want to be doing something all the time\u2014I want to be getting somewhere.\"\nand Miss Lawson, Mrs. Love, Mrs.\nGriffiths, Mrs. Genge, Mrs. T. S.
