I saw Jane Cowl in \u201cLilac Time\u201d What a mistress of insight and emotion she is! And how sad a story to unfold. War &#8211; ruthless &#8211; grim &#8211; saturnine &#8211; And Jeanine &#8211; delicate- sensitive &#8211; courageous. Surely she typifies France, the France of Jean D\u2019Arc &amp; Lafayette. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And after the shoe &#8211; as antidote &#8211; reception at Rutherfords. Am in sore need of new suit, etc. Home late. (almost early) Thursday &#8211; saw in morning papers Germany&#8217;s new blockade note. This seems to be the culmination of our neutrality. The papers are headlining \u201cWar\u201d. How utterly sick of war &#8211; and munitions &#8211; greed and all, some of us are. I am cherishing no illusions. It is only chaos. Are we actually feministic? Will war breed virility? Can I substitute a philosophy of hardihood and bravery and chivalry into my life, to take the place of trial by sword? Values such as thrift, patience, loyalty, steadfastness, and the unceasing concentration of the will on a well planned and worthy objective. Wm James planned a fight with nature, but surely our own devils need some quelling too. \u00a0Ex. 11.45 PM<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shoes 1.00 Dance 50 Post 5 Candy 20 Paper 3<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jan 30, 1917 7.15 PM (AM) Ex.
