ONE early March morning a window
near the top of the tall Wabash
building was pushed open nnd a very
tired face gazed out. The day was
one of those forerunners of true
springtime that Insinuate Into ofllees
nnd winter-weary nerves und blood.
She looked out of the wide window,
down on the red-tiled roof of the build
ing next door, a pygmy edifice, mus
tering but twenty stories. Alice was
tired of keeping books, tired of office
routine, tired of the scrambling, shov
ing, brutal subway Jam morning nnd
evening, tired of returning to a dreary
two-room flat night after night.
Where would it all end? In a bal
ance at the bank, perhaps, that would
save her, some day, from an Old La
dies' home where the Inmates knitted
nnd crocheted and ate three times a
day. Was that life? Alice pondered
the question.
True, there was the handsome,
rugged young office manager, Sidney
Jevons, courteous to all the girls, and,
so it sometimes seemed to Alice, espe
cially considerate of her; but, then, he
wasn’t looking for a' hard-working of
fice girl. Gossip allied Jevons with
the treasurer’s daughter, whose sable
wrapped figure was a familiar sight on
this, the executive floor.
No, men today did not wish women
to love them, mused Alice, eyeing a
fleet of wheeling pigeons, animated
specks against the sky; they wanted
women of Independent affluence and
position whose social and financial
prestige would aid their business
climb. Her mind raced back to doll
days and the childish game of “Three
Wishes." All three of Alice's wishes
were for a real baby to croon to and
play with—a baby that cried! Well,
that was that!
Sighing, Alice raised a slim hand to
close the window and saw Tommy on
the red-tiled roof below. Tommy was
In distress. Tommy was howling.
Tommy was a real baby.
A girl of ten or so was hanging
clothes on a line stretched from chim
ney to chimney on the roof, and five
youngsters of assorted sizes and sexes
were being admonished severely by
! ten-year-old Little Mother not to go
near the wet sheets and dirty them.
All the while wee Tommy howled.
Suddenly a bulging and capacious
female issued from the roof door nnd
deposited a resounding slap on Tom
my’s round, red cheek.
Alice wanted to sit right down with
Tommy next her heart and cry with
hint.
“Anyway,” Alice whispered, shutting
the window. "I'll make that baby for
get that slap—somehow!”
One later, warmer day when the
window stayed open, Alice heard child
ish voices ngain floating in from the
roof below. She listened.
"Hut didn’t I told you 1 don't want
a Teddy Bear? 1 wants a dolly—a
squeezy dolly—I wants a—”
“You’re a boy, ain’t you, Tommy?
Y’ought to be 'shamed to want a dolly.
I want a dolly. I'm a girl! Y’ought
to want a Teddy Bear. 1 ain’t goin’
to play ‘Wishes' with you no more.
Tommy.” Little Mother went to the
other end of the roof.
Next day Alice watched nnd listened
for the janitor’s children on the red
tiled roof below her window. At
last!
“No, Tommy, they ain't no such
thing as fairies. Y'ou’re silly! Come
on, let's play! Shut your eyes and
make three wishes. I got something
in my hand behind my back. Listen,
now! Don't go wishin’ for no dollies.”
"Tandy!” Tommy promptly shrieked,
and Little Mother poked a bilge marsh
mallow between the rosy lips.
“I want a dolly—I want a dolly—I
want a dol—” the baby insisted as
mastication permitted.
The psychological moment bad ar
rived for Alice. Leaning far out of
I her window she took fair aim. Plop,
fell something squnre on Tommy’s fat
legs. And plop! Another thing fell
right in Little Mother’s lap.
Little Mother jumped up and
searched the heavens high above and
nil sides with wide, ecstatic eyes. No
sign of fairy, magic carpet, witch or
void In. But In her scrawny little arms
WHEN THE SUN COOLS
|
For many years astronomers
have speculated regarding the
possibility that some day the
sun will have exhausted its
heat and become cold.
Dr. E. E. Trevine, president
of 'the Mexican Astronomical
Society, is one who holds this
view, and points out that thou
sands of now extinct suns are
known to have existed in the
dim past. In lectures at the un
iversity of Edinburgh, Prof. A.
S. Eddington also expressed the
belief that the universe is slow
ly runing down, although he

a oeautiini non. Ann in tommy s
arms, short, pudgy and wonderstruck,
a “squeezy” doll.
Neither of the children could be told
that these were painted toys from the
shelves of a shop. No, Indeed! These
were real dollies to be loved, caressed
and talked to, put to bed and taken
up, kissed, scolded and adored. Fair
ies were real! They were the glori
ous creators of the game of “Shut
Your Eyes and Make Three Wishes!”
“What In the world are you looking
at so intently. Miss Arno?" said Sid
ney Jevons, the handsome office man
ager, coming to Alice’s side as she
stood, a little back from tbe window,
looking down.
“The two happiest children in New
York,” Alice quietly replied. “They
believe in fairies—good fairies. You
see . . .”
“Yes," broke in Sidney Jevons, look
ing gently, steadily, and worlds deep
In Alice's lovely coal-black eyes, “I
saw! I saw many things. And 1 be
lieve in you."
Sir. and Mrs. Sidney Jevons named
their lirst baby Tommy, Instead of fol
lowing the time-honored Jevons cus
tom of calling the first son after the
first son. They fostered his early
faith in fairies and encouraged him to
howl. • i
admits the possibility that the
heat thrown of by the sun and
other stars may be gathered
again in some manner to form
new suns.
In any event, old Sol looks
good for another billion years
or more, so his ultimate end has
little practical interest for us.
But it is fascinating to con
template what may be the final
fate of mankind when, if ever,
our solar systems begin to un
dergo a marked change such
as these astronomers predict.
SPENDING AND SAVING
The problem of spending and
saving is as old as civilization
and in scarcely any phase of
human conduct do we find
greater differences among
different persons. It is unfor
tunate that so few are able to
strike a happy medium be
tween stinginess and wasteful
ness.
The type of spendthrift who
wastes inherited money is well
known, as is also the lazy,
shiftless type who live from
hand to mouth in good times or
bad. The industrious worker
who literally throws away his
earnings is more rare.
An ilustration of the latter
class is seen in the late author
and playwright, Edgar Wal
lace, who was one of the most
prolific and successful writers
of all time. In the 25 years be
fore his death he wrote some
150 full length novels and lit
erally thousands of short stor
ies, besides 20 plays. So many
of his works had big sales that
his income must have been ex
ceedingly large.
He was thought to be a weal
thy man, but at his death his
estate was found to be insuf
ficient to pay his debts, and
his wife was left without means
of support. It seems incredible
that a man of Wallace’s intel
ligence and tireless energy
should have been so short
sighted with respect to his fi
nancial affairs.
ALASKA NOTES

in Seattle. Mr. Theile, former
