...great M. ReneéViviani came to the U. S. as High Commissioner with Marshall Joffre in 1915, few surmised that this onetime Prime Minister of France would soon be immured at Malmaison. Last week however all France knew-and laughed in the knowledge-that M. Le Senateur Louis Klotz, onetime Finance Minister in the Clemenceau War Cabinet (1917-20) had just tried desperately to prove himself fit for Malmaison-and failed...

Along came pouring rain and sure-putting Mrs. H. D. Sterrett of Hutchinson, Kan. The Conclusion wavered before those pitiless...
...group of Eastern citizens, sunburnt, risible, reading the list of entries for the annual women's golf championship of Belleair Heights. They read with respect the names of Mrs. Dorothy Cambell Hurd of Philadelphia, national champion; Miss Glenna Collett of Providence, Miss Francis Hadfield of Milwaukee, Miss Dorothy Klotz of Chicago, Mrs G. H. Stetson of Philadelphia. Suddenly, one of their number pointed to a name, emitted a snicker. Others, following his shaking finger, perceived the joke, began to titter, to cackle. Soon a hysteria of amusement possessed the group; they laid hands upon one another, crowing; they pressed...
