votes.

He knewthat a more exnct tempering of steel for motor car building must be workedout. Vanadium, It was learned, when added to molten steel, gives to thatsteel a greater totighncss and adhesiveness. And now other alloys havebeen found which are superior to Vanadlffm. With the Ford Motor ('om-(liaiiy constant progress Is the dally companion. The Ford products—Car,Truck, Tractor—grow In qualiljf dally. Heat-treating tempers each partMO that It will heht withstand the vftar or tear to which It Is subjected. Fordchemists and analysts have created formulas and standard specificationsfor every Individual part of the Ford car—not only for the steel, but foreverything from pneumatic tires to lop.

SOMETHING TOTHINK ABOUT

nnrmtimrnrnTFrmmmnnuiiJiiiuiniiTijiimByf. A. Walker „

I'"" ' "I Illlllllllllic

KOT ON BREAD ALONE

THERE Is within all of us anever-growing appetite whichcraves substantial nourishment

for the soul. JA sumptuous table heaped with

palatable delicacies falls utterly tosatisfy this hunger.

With all our carnal gluttony wefind ourselves at certain, periods ofour existence yearning xor spiritualfood.

Wealth and luxury leave but anemptiness; poverty and sorrow dis-tress and harden our hearts; theworld Is a cheat—a bauble that eludesus and leaves us In vagueness.

• * *We may be talebearers, liars and

thieves, but In our serious momentsthere comes upon us an( overwhelm-ing longing for something that willappease our appetfte, besides bread•lone.

We wish for the sustenance Inwhich Truth and Mercy are blended,that our souls may be satiated, andour fever cooled. In ten thousanddelectable forms It Is spread out be-for us, but we rebel against accept-ing It.

Though we may be starving andweak to the point of falling we re-fuse to eat.

In our misery and weariness wecrave the everlasting Voice of Natureto lull us to sweet repose, yet Instrange perverseness we fight to keepawake. #-

* • *From all around us comes the call

to the feast.It comes from the silent starry

nights; from the boisterous days;from the shimmering sliver streams;

DO WE BLUSH?

ANY shock or emotion which makesthe heart pump nn extra supplyof hlood Into the arteries and

veins which supply the face will giverlfic to the reaction which we call"blushing." The emotion, of course,must be one, of the variety whichcauses the heart to beat faster thiVnusual. Excitement, embarrassmentor nnger will cause, this, whllo fear,which retards the action of the heart,will cause the opposite effect, pro-ducing a pule white look.

I U'can HL- the shuck or emotion mustbe ono to which we are not accus-tomed, some persons bin nil far morereadily than others. A person, forexample, who Is not In the habit otlistening to certain language willblush from embarrassment when helicnrH It the first few times but, If theexperience Is continued, lio will bo-

from the dancing leaves of the for-ests ; from songs of birds and sigh-Ing winds, but our eyes are heavyarid our ears nro dull.

Right at our .elbows Is a dust-covered volume filled with upliftingencouragement and fatherly, love.Intended for guidance to the veryhappiness we desire.

But we let this great book lie Ina dark corner untouched while wecontinue to stumble on and cry forpeace.

We refuse to open our eyes whenwe ought to be wide awake; we de-cline to close them when we oughtto be asleep: we arc wilfully head-strong nnd Insistent upon having ourown way.

We sec not the good, but stroll andstrut with evil.

We are human; but within eachone of us there bums the spark ofdivinity, and not until thfs spark shallbe fanned by oar own hand Intoflame, and kept burning by simple.prayer nnd faith shall our hunger befully satisfied.

HOW DO YOU SAK IT?By C. N. LURIE

Common Error* in Englieh andHow to Avoid Them

"EVERY ONE ARE."

THERE la always a strong ten-dency among writers or speakersto make a verb agree in number

with the noun that Is nearest to theverb In position In the sentence. Forexample, many persona use such sen-tences as the following: "Every oneof these letters were signed by me."without recognizing the grammaticalerror Involved.

The subject (nominative) of the sen-tence Is not "letters." but "one," modi-fied by "every." One ls ln the slneulnr

number and requires, therefore, asingular verb. "Letters" Is In the ob-jective case, governed by the preposi-tion "of." You cannot say. "Everyone were signed." and the use of thephrase "of the letters" does not.change the grammatical rule Involved.Therefore, Instead of saying "Every-one of these letters were signed byme," say "Every one of these letterswas signed by me."

Of course, the same rule applies to"each." Do not" say, "Each of theseletters are mine;" say, "Each of theseletters Is mine." •

While the Simpsons bad lived InEnilngton they hnd Imd a hard time tomake both ends meet. After theyhad- moved three stations down 'theline Joseph began to get more workand Mrs. Simpson Was able to useher energies for her family Instead ofhelping out the earnings of her hus-band by doing two washings a weekat home. The same energy that hadImpelled her to slave over tbe wash-tobs was now diverted into other chan-nels 'and she constantly urged Susan,her nineteen-) car-old daughter, to tryand blossom out as, a well-dressedyoung lady.

"If .you'3 Jast hold, your head np,Susan, and study hitrd there's no tell-ing where you might land." she prod-ded, stitching away at a too-elaboratewhite frock for the girl.

At the farther endof the train she saw Charlie gaylyhelping down ma and the numerousmembers of ma's family.

"Why, where's Susan?'' she beardhim ^xclalm as pa gingerly steppeddown from the high step of the da;c.oach and counted heads. .

"Susan," ma's voice was repletewith pride, "came In the parlor car.Vou know, she's agoln' to sing at theball tonight" s

Charlie's face clouded. He wentslowly toward the small, white-cladfigure tottering along anxiously to-ward him. , "Susan, I feel ashamed ofyou," he said sternly. "Why shouldyou ride in a chair car and your mago in the day coach? If you've golsuch notions as that I don't thinkyou're cut out for a working man'swife. Is a duke coining to take youto the hall or do you want me to helpyou along In those satin shoes?"

Susan's eyes misted suddenly, butshe was too shy to reply. Pa, who hadfollowed. Intervened*

"Susan didn't know that she was toride In the parlor car. It's her ma'sdoings. You see," pa winked at thedisapproving young man.

Park Superintendent TakesMeasurements of Visitors to

Crystal Cave.Los. Angeles, Cal. — Thaddeus'

Brown of. Lemoore Is a man of con-siderable weight In the community, andJohn B. White, superintendent of theSequoia National park. Is an officialof considerable literary ability. Thesefacts ere evidenced, perhaps for thedrat time publicly, by the followingbulletin received here:

"Sequoia National Park,"Office of Superintendent

Giant Forest, Cal."Since the lamentable accident that

happened to Thaddeus Brown .of Le-moore, Cal., on August? 28, It has beennecessary to take additional precau-tions for the safety of those visitingthe Crystal Cave In the Sequoia Na-tional park.

"Brown, It will be recollected, Is astoat gentleman, who was stuck'forthree days In Hell's Crack, about half

One'Final Pull Brought Him J.nrouOh

a mile from 'the cave entrance, deepIn the bowels of the earth. An at-tempt was made by park rangers topull him through the hole, but his crieswere so terrifying as the sharp staNactltes scarilled the skin of his lowerwaist that his would-be rescuers wereforced to desist.

"The superintendent was notified ofBrown's condition, and personally vis-ited the cave. After thorough exam-ination It was determined that Itwould cither be necessary to blast himout with T. N. T. or starve him untilhis waist measurement was reducedsufficiently to enable, his passagethrough Hell's Crock.

"Despite the Indignation, of othervisitors, who were barred from thehotiutles of Organ Loft, the FrozenCascade, the Marble Chamber, etc., bythe rear portion of Brown, It wasthought bettor not to blast him out,na undoubtedly some Injury would nvsuit to tho dellcutu formation of thecave.

"Ily the end of tho third day hiswaist measurement was ri-duciMl 1-1%Inches, and one rlnnl pull liy two parkrangers brought him through Ihu holominus his punts and nomo skin.

"Thn bride's gown was of l»ory satinwith chantllly lace and pearl trlm-mlnfpi. A shower bouquet of roses andMile* of the valley completed the bridaleoBti'ine."

Tho society reporter tapped out her£torjr with nimble, eager flngers whileshe smiled dreamily as she recalledtbe happy event of which she waswriting.

"Miss Frances I" bellowed the sten-'torlan .voice of the city editor In thedirection of the yonng reporter who,woman-like, was lost In the reverie ofthe beautiful gowns of the weddingparty.

"The charming maid of honor In her •gown of pink and silver," typed onthe facile story-teller of society eventf.

"I say, Miss Frances I"The louder ton* a'woke the yonng re-

porter with a Jerk to her surroundings.v "Yes, sir," she replied In the quickresponse of the newspaper worker.

"Call np this Girls' club and and ontJnst what kind of social their noveltyparty Is going to be. Find out Justwhat the Suture of tbe correction Isthat Mrs. Flsk-Butler wants made Inthe dote of the charity ball. O, yes,here I Run out nnd coyer this wedding.It's tlie most noted one of the season.Here's the picture of the bride. Con-stance Compton. Al, Babson, the col-lege athlete, Is the groom. Take thenext train, and have the story for thoearly edition."

"Al Babson Is the groom!" At thewords the whole world seemed to swingInto wild emotion^ and then to settledown Into a dreary, heavy-solldlty thatterrified her. Al Bahson was to hemarried I1 He Who had held her In hisarms and pledged remembrance untodeath! Like a flash she saw the sta-tion crowded with khhkl-clnd figures,heard low good-bys being whispered bytfloso heroes departing for the war,and felt once more the reverent kissof her departing lover upon her trem-bling lips.

With a despairing sob the brpwnhead dropped to the toll-worn hands.while the tired, lonely heart of theplrl cried out her broken-hearteddisappointment. It was the loud-voiced conductor bnwllng out thostation tlmt aroused her from her griefto tho world of dally living. Shestumbled uncertainly from Iho trainto the station platform, furt ively dry-Ing her tear-filled eyes behind thegrateful concealment of- her modishveil.

Confidence anda Golf Ball

By FRANK H. WILLIAMS.

"Do,w,n ID Bah-wah-ya,,Whqre the lovln' Is free,

A fed-headed girlMade a wreck out of me;

. And there never was a wreck,Llke the wreck she made

mee-e-e I"

-The voice that gave utterance tothis thrilling sentiment was deep andfall. And the man from whom thevoice came. looked about as muchlike a wreck as a dreadnaught Just offthe ways. He was somewhat over slifeet In height, had a Jack Dempseychest, a tanned face, blue eyes and en-gaging smile.

Hls'-name was Howard Folwell. Hewas singing as be strode, back andforth In the basement of the River-side Country club waiting for bis com-panions to array themselves In golfattire and sally forth with him towhang the ball around the course foran hour or two.

•But though he sang and though beseemed carefree and happy, therereally was a cloud on Folwell's life.

The cloud was the fact that Beatrice Jackson, holder of the women'schampionship at the Riverside clubscorned his advances and smllecsweetly upon Lem Wheeling, rival ofFolwell In love, hi business and Ingolf.

Just the evening before Beatricehad told Foljvell In no uncertainterms that she never, never, nevercould care for a man who sliced hisdrives and was a ddb with a putter.Which was pretty hard on Folwellsince he was all that and a little bitmore.

So It wasn't surprising Jhnt Folwell,In singing about the girl who hadmade a wreck of his career, put adepth of feeling Into the ditty thatcalled forth groans and yelps fromthe assembled listeners.

"Say, old top," exclaimed one ofFolwell's friends, "If you put as muchtime and effort Into trying to cut outyour slice on your'drive you'd be awhirlwind."

"As a singer you're a wonderful golfplayer and as a golflst you're a knockout as a singer I" exclaimed another ofthe men.

Whereupon Folwell turned towardthe lockers with the Intention ofmessing np things n bit with the play-ful maullngs of Ills two-ton paw,when through n window In the base-ment he saw Beatrice pass by withhated Lorn Wheeling close beside her.

At this sight wrath rose In Folwell'sheart. He saw red. He had an In-tense desire to seize Lem by the neckof his fancy ullk shirt and rend him

1 asunder. And with this feeling gov-erning his actions, Folwell hurriedfrom tho basement out Into the hotaun.

By this tlmo Beatrice and Lem wereat the first tee prepared to drive off.Beatrice, turning hack towiii&l thoclubhouse, saw Folwell scowling nther.

"Hello, Hod," she cried. "Watchtills I"

Gracefully, efficiently, Beatrice ad-dressed tho hall and then socked Itdown the course for n good 1MX> yards.

Kolwell watehiMl her sullenly. Ithad Iieen many a long day since hohad iliaiU! a "00-yard drlvu.

"Now If I could only do as wejl asthat, or better," stalled H'olwoll to hlm-fl«lf,' "llie-re'il ho nothing to I t ; sho'db« mint* boforo the, wook'ri over. HutIt can't bo dune—a dub Ilko mo cannever got good. I wluli mimothlngwould happen, ilnwguno It I"

While Beatrice and-Lem were sttl!watching him, Folwell cWew back antswung at- the ball—nice and easywithout any real effort.

Up Into the sky the ball rose, grace-fully, unerringly. Straight down the•course It flew; over the heads of theastonished couple watching him, andlanded plump In the fairway a meretrifle of fifteen or twenty yards fromthe hole. A fine drive—325 yards atleast.

"You sec?" cried the caddy. "Mybrother was right—he said youcouldn't step this ball. Come on—we'll show 'em up today I"

Folwell's heart swelled with prideenthusiasm and confidence. He wasquite' masterful as he walked by

.Beatrice nnd Lem, who viewed himwith something like awe.

"That was some drivel" exclalmetBeatrice as he passed.

"Watch my next one I" exclaimedFolwell In return.

The flrst hole" Folwell made Inthree. On his next drive he got. agood 300 yards. And so, as he pur-sued his lonely way around the coursewithout waiting for his male friends.It went with .oil his drives. He wasplaying In perfect form. Nothing couldstop him. And the best of It was thatBeatrice and Lem were behind himand he could see Beatrice's Interest Inhim Increase - while her Interest InLem slackened.

But J'Wlth all Folwell's success hewas becoming uneasy. It wasn't righthe felt, to win under false pretensesHe wouldn't wont to get Beatrice thatway.

So It was that at the end of theeighteen holes when Folwell hadmade a "score which was two betterthan the record for the course thathe drew Beatrice aside with an au-thority and a confidence he had nothitherto displayed In his dealings withher.

"Beatrice," he said, "Tve alwaysfelt that If I was a good golf playeryou'd take me In preference to Lem."

The light In her eyes at this madehis head bound tumultuoiisly. Bat heheld himself well In hand.

"I want you more than anything .Inthe world," said Folwell, "but I won'twin you- underhanded. I ought to tellyou that my playing today was notdue- to my getting good all of a sud?den. These wonderful drives weredue to the fact that I used a patentedball—It has a vacuum center and Isas light as air. Now I don't supposeyou'll ever have anything to do withme again!"

Folwell looked at Beatrice anxious-ly, sadly. Then to his Intense sur-prise and Joy, he saw a wonderfullight come Into her eyes.

"Oh, Hod," she cried, "only a realman could make a confession likethat, I—"

But Just then as things were gettingso very Interesting there came nn In-terruption. Folwell's caddy suddenlyappeared from behind a nearby ha»-ard.

"Say, lady," said the caddy briskly;'"I- Jns't fooled Mr. Folwell here so nsto give lilm confidence. That's all heneeds to make n great golf player-confidence. So I told him that dopeabout the vacuum hall. There o.ln'tsuch n thing. Ho used nn ordinaryball. But he did so good because hehad confidence. Look here."• Tile caddy drew forth n ball whichFolwflll recognized as tho ono he hadused. Quickly tho caddy cut It openwith his knife,. Only the regulationcenter was revealed I

Knlwell ga/o.d at ^eatrleo andmulled happily at tho light In heroyon. '

"We'll be married Just an quicklyas poHHlhlo I" ho exclaimed with su-preme confidence.

For JiiHt n moment Beatrice de-murred.

"My. but yon'ro high and mightynnd—confident I" sho exclaimed. "I'or-haps I won't Hay yes. after all."

A pleneer of the Southwest, used tothe hardships and rough frontier life,yet Mrs. Adalr spent much of hertime In close association with thenobility of England, and frequentlyentertained nobility at the "J./ A."ranch In Dontey couqty, comprising000,000 acres and more than 100,000head of cattle. Only a few monthsago Mrs. Adnlr was host to a party ofEnglish nobility nt the "J. A." ranch,and returned with them to England,Intending to return to Texas early In1922.

Bossed Big Property.She was elghty-Bve years old, and

since 1885, when her husband diedshe personally superintended the Im-mense property. She was In truth anempress of the ranges, had been ex-pert with the lasso, rode with hercowboys, put through big deals In livestock and Improved the "J. A." herduntil It has become known as the bestin Texas. At all big stock showsher cattle have won flrst prizes.

Mrs. Adalr was a native of NewYork, the daughter of Maj. Gen. JameSS. Wadsworth of Genesco. She mar-ried John Adalr, an Irishman, In thoearly 70s nnd went with him to Colo-rado.^ Mrs. Adalr, her-husband, Mrs.Mary Goodnight, wife of her hus-band's partner, and a score of cow-boys made the Journey from Pueblo,Colo., to the Texas ranch overland,driving a herd of cattle through acountry menaced both by Indians andwild^hnlmalB and' where /water holeswere few. When wfthln a short dis-tance of .their destination It was agamble whether the entire party andanimals would die from tlilrst.JIhe horses the men and women

.rode shambled along exhausted andthe cattle were dropping out almostevery minute. A small stream wasfound In the nick of tlmo,' members ofthe party reaching It ono by one andalmost gone. They reached tlio site

of the "J, A." ranch next day. then abarren tract of land. Two shantieswere built In which Mrs. Adalr andMrs. Goodnight lived for several years.The ranch at first totaled 1,000,000acres and about a year after arrivingthere Adalr bought out Goodnlght'sInterest.

Indications are that the army of Il-literates In the United States will notfall far short of 6,000,000 or 7,000,000.There has been progress, however, andnotably In the Southern states. Geor-gia, for example, has 328,838 Illiter-ates, but the percentage ot IlliteracyIs 16.3, as compared with 20.7 In 1010.

At this rate, even without the pro-posed help of the federal government,the South should be virtually freefrom Illiteracy In 80 years.

Every Twelve Years Since Span-ish Invasion Body of Mur-

WON'T STAY INTERRED

Spaniard Killed by Indiana In NewMexico Who. Feared He Would

Betray TBem to SpanishInvaders.

Isletn, N. M.—Here reposes at pres-ent the oldest and most persistentghost In America. This might be in-scribed hi the Uttle adobe churchhere.

Long ago, at-the time of the-firstSpanish Invasions' of southwesternAmerica, a Spanish friar was cap-tured by the Indians. Although keptas a prisoner for a time, he later wontheir confidence and as years wentby was admitted to their peculiar re-ligious and political circles.

At last the rumor reached the .tribeof the advance of Coronado hi searchbf treasure. The Indians fearedtreachery on the part of their Span-ish friend and one night he wasstabbed to death by one of the moreskeptical members of the tribe.

The medicine men were horrified atthe crime, for not only had they cometo respect the Spaniard's Christian,teachings, but bad made him. a par-ticipator hi their own religion. Andabove all, they knew what might beexpected of enraged Spaniards If theyshould discover the crime.

Buried Near Altar.Tbe priest's body was hastily

wrapped hi a sheet and without anyprayer or ceremony burled deep hifront of the altar In the Uttle Chris-tian church hi Jsleta.

Coronado's men never learned ofthe crime, but a few years later a pe-culiar mound appeared In front of thealtar In the little church. The horri-fied natives observed the mound waaexactly the length nnd width of aman's body. Soon the hard earth floorcracked and one morning, just 12years after the burial of the priest,his body was discovered lying face up-ward above the spot where be hadbeen burled.

On examination It was found thatthe, body was soft, as though tho

noAmerica Again Aids Cuba

America's ward, Cuba, has beenlately In the limelight because of Itselection struggles and financial up-.heaval. Now It Is coming fast intoprominence again through a revivalof Its prosperity. Help from the Uni-ted States In practical form, first ex-tended In 1898, Is again the cause. InCuban-American history GeneralEnoch H. Cro\vder, now reconstructingthe island's finances, bids fair to rankwith General Leonard Wood, whocleaned up Havana and enforced san<Itatlon after the war of 1808. «

But General Crowder has by nomeans completed his task. Continued.In his mission by President Harding,no will be retained there until thejob Is finally completed. The Cubangovernment has Just authorized theappointment of a commission, whichwill review the revenue situation ofthe Island, evolve methods of reduc-ing expenses and of raising more gov-

ernmental funds, rewrite the Cuban tariff law and generally brush up the en-tire revenue machinery of the government General Crowder will be an ex-offlclo member of this commission, will sit with It at every session.and will beIts chief adviser.

The financial situation with which General Crowder has had to cope maybe visualized when It Is recalled that, when President Zayas assumed the officeof president of Cuba he Inherited from former President Menocal a deficit of840.000.000. while customs receipts and Internal revenues bad been reduced al-most to the vanishing point.

When Joe announced his Intentionof marrying Constance his family hadwarned him that he would have trou-ble with n wife who was as spoiledand selfish as Connie. But Joe,''feel-ing that she loved him enough toovercome her selfishness for his sake,had paid no attention to the warning.

Now, after six months of darrled"life, the family's prophecy seentedabout to be fulfilled. Connie was be-ginning to assume a martyred attitudennd a habit of unmercifully nagginghim at every opportunity.

On thla particular evening Conniechose to be especially nasty.

"Business as usual, I suppose?" sheInquired, sweetly sarcastic, when hecame In late to supper.

Receiving no reply, and seeming de-termined to provoke him, she tried •again.

'Do you know," she asked, coollyand deliberately, "sometimes I wonderIf It Is nil business!"

Instead of hanging up his hat hereplaced It on his head and gave ventto his temper.

"I am going out to a restaurant IPerhaps some day when It's too lateyou'll come to your senses l I've hadenough!" Slamming the door angrilyafter him, he left the house.

Connie was so surprised that sheforgot the half-framed retort that wason her lips. Joe hnd never spokenlike this to her before. She beganto feel uneasy and wondered where hehad gone. After two or three hoursof trying to amuse herself she wentInto the bedroom and addressed her-self In the mirror.

1 don't care I" she snld aloud. "Idon't care! I'll show him. I don'tcare If he never comes back 1" Andjust to prove thnt she didn't, she threwherself down on the bed and cried her-self to sleep.

When n»« awoke It was 11 o'clock.How could she have slept so long?And where wns Jo'e? She wondered .if he really had left her, nnd began tofeel shaky. She decided to go to thodrug store for a drink.

While sipping a chocolate milk tho'onversntlon of two men at the cigar

counter came to her enrs."Where—at Oeb & Slmmonds?""Yes, today—shortage of $10,000.""Funny mlx-up, anyone suspected?""No, not yet; but nobody handles

'he money except old man Oeh him-self, and that young fellow Joe."

Connie waited to hear no more. Sot-Ing down her glass with n thump that

startled the sleepy drag clerk, sho fledfrom the store.

R OCKY MOUNTAIN In Coloradoagain leads all tbe national parks'In attendance, wltb 275,737 vis-

itors In 1021. Hot Springs, Arkansas.had 130,069; Yosemlte, 91,513; Yellow-stone, 81,051. The total attendance atnational parks and national monu-ments was 1,171,450. The Interior de-partment and Western congressmenhave been much put out over attackson the national park service policy,the opposition centering at RockyMountain. Therefore the receipt • ofthe following from fistes Park, theninln entrance to Rocky Mountain, hascaused satisfaction:

"Whereas, It comes to the attentionof the Estes Park chamber of com-merce, which Is composed of 01 activemembers, business men and hotel menof Kstes Park and tributary territory,that apparently an organized effort Isseeking to undermine the Rocky Moun-tain National park and the policy gov-erning It; and,

"Whereas, In our opinion, the policygoverning the national parks hasworked to the best Interest of tho pub-lic la general; and,

"Whereas, The transportation con^cession has aided travel to the RockyMountain National park through 'en-forced schedules, equipment andtfatcs;and, \

"Whereas, Said concession prytectc

the baggage of pa^sen^crs through theestablishment of a transportation firmof financial standing and responsibil-ity ; and,

"Whereas, We feel that we are Ina better position to understand andobserve tho working of the policy ofthe national parks service, the man-ner of Its dealing with the public andthe transportation system than thosemany miles , away, many of whomhave never seen the Rocky MountainNational park; and,

"Whereas, We arc more vitally In-terested In the successful operationof the Rocky Mountain National parkthan la any other body of men In the

I United States; therefore be It"Hesolvoil, That we go on record as

condemning tho fight against the trans-portation policy of the national parkservice, and express our confidence Intlio ability of the management of th»national park service."

Method of Conducting a Lawsuit Inthe Can of Henry Brlmetead ct al.,vo. Lionel Davis.

They fonnd man; of Davis* notesIn Tazewell county. Abe Lincoln'scomplaint represented seven clientsand a sum exceeding twenty thousanddollars.

With the paper* In his pocket Barrywent on to the Honey Creek settle-ment. There he found that theplague bad spent IrSelf and that BImbad gone to a detention camp ontsldethe city of Chicago. Be waa not per-mitted to see her, the regulations hav-ing become very strict In the city hewent to the store of Ell Fredenberg.The merchant received him with en-thusiasm. Chicago bad begun to re-cover from tbe panic. Trade waslively. v

Harry spent the afternoon with Mrs.Kelao and film's baby boy. He wrotea very tender letter to Elm that day.He told her that he bad come to Chi-cago to live so that be might be nearher and ready to help her If she need-ed help. "The tame old love Is In myheart that made me want you for mywife long ago, that has filled my let-ters and sustained me In many anhour of peril," he wrote. "If youreally think that yon must marry Da-vis, I ask yon at least to wait for thedevelopments of a suit which Abe Lin-coln Is bringing In behalf of manycitizens of Tazewell county. It Islikely that we shall know more thanwe do now before that case ends. Isaw your beautiful lltUe boy. He looksso much like you that I long to stealhim nnd keep him with me."

In a few days he received this briefreply:

"Dear Barry: Tour letter pleasedand pained me. I have been so tossedabout that I dont know quite'where Istand. For a long time my life hasbeen nothing but a series of emotions.What Honest Abe may bo able toprove I know not, but I am sure thatho cannot disprove the fact that Mr.Davla baa been kind and generous tome. For that I cannot ever cease tobe grateful. I should have marriedhim before now but for one singularclrcimiatance. My llttlo boy cannot bomode to like him. He will have noth-ing to do with Mr. Davis. He will notbe brlhcd or coerced. I saw In this aprophecy of trouble. I left homo andwent down Into the very shadow ofdeath. It may be that wo have beensaved for each other by the wisdomof childhood. I must not see yon now.Nor shall I nee him until I have foundmy way. Klven your call cannot makeme forgot that I uin, under a solemnpromise.

"I'm glad you like tho boy. He la awonderful child. I named him Ne-hcmlah for his grandfather. Wo callhim Mini and sometimes 'Mr. Nimble*bccuuno he* la no lively. I'm homeulckto DCQ him und you.

When Samson and Harry Needlesleft the courthouse, there seemed tobe no obstacle between the young manand the consummation of his wishes.Unfortunately, as they were goingdown the steps Davis, who blamedSamson for his troubles, flung an In-sult at the sturdy Vermonter. Sam-son, who had then arrived at years ofBrm discretion, was little disturbed bythe anger of a man so discredited.But Harry, on the Bound of the hate-ful words, had, leaped forward anddealt the speculator a savage blow Inthe face which for a few seconds haddeprived him of the power of speechThat evening a friend of Davis calledat the City hall with a challenge. Thehot-blooded young soldier accepted Itagainst the urgent counsel of SamsonTraylor, Mr. Lincoln having left thecity. .

As to tbe details of the tragic scenethat followed next day, the writerhas little knowledge. Samson wasnot the type of man for such a chron-icle. The diary speaks of his part InIt with shame and sorrow and re-morse. We know that It was at day-break when he and Barry rode to apoint on tbe prairie "something morethan a mile from the city limits."There he tells as they met Davis andone friend of the latter and two sur-geons. It Is evident, too, that greatsecrecy had been observed In the planand Its execution and that, until sometime after the last act, Lincoln knewnothing of tie later developments Inthe drama of Davis' downfall. Forthe rest of the deplorable scene thehistorian must content .himself withthe naked, details.In.Ujie diary of apuritan pioneer. .. 1

CHAPTER XXIII.

Which Presents the Pleasant Comedyof Individualism in the New Capital,and the Courtship of Lincoln andMary Todd.

Samson, with "Mr. Nimble" on apad stuffed with straw In front ofhim, jogged across the prairies andwaded the creeks and sloughs on hisway to Springfield. The little lad wasIn hip fourth year that summer. Heslept and talked much on the way andkept Samson busy with queries aboutthe sky ond the creeks and tbe greatflowery meadows.

They camped the first night In abelt of timber and Samson writes thatthe boy "slept snug against me withhis head on my arm. He went to sleepcrying for his mother." He adds:'

"It reminded me of the old days ofmy young fatherhood. 'Mr. Nimble'wanted to plat all the flowers andsplash his bare feet In every stream.In the evening he would talk to thestars as If he were playing with them.He Is like some of the grown folks InChicago. He would sit hanging on tothe reins.^nnd talk to the horse andto Ood by the hour. He usedsto tellme that God was » friend of his andI think he was right It was goodluck to get back to Sarah and thechildren. They took the little stran-ger Into their hearts. 'Heart room,bouse room' Is the motto of this partOf the Country."

It was a new town to which Samsonreturned. The governor and the stateofficers had moved to Springfield. Tbenew capltol was Hearing completion.The hard times which had followedthe downfall of '37 had unjustly dim-inished Mr. Lincoln's confidence In hisability as a legislator. He enjoyedthe practice of the law, which had be-gun to turn hla Interest from the af-fairs of state. But tho pot of politicalscience boiled before the fireplace Inthe rear of Joshua Speed's store everyevening that Lincoln and hla associ-ates were In Springfield. The wit andwisdom which bubbled Into Its vaporsnnd the heat that surrounded It werethe talk of 'the town. Many cameto witness the process and presentlyIt was moved, for a time, to moreaccommodating quarters. Before acrowd of people In the Presbyterianchurch, Lincoln, Logan, Baker andBrowning for the Whigs, and Douglas,Calhoun, Lumborn and Thomas fortho Democrats, having assiduouslyprepared for tho trial, debated theburning Issues of the time. The effortof each filled nn evening and Lincoln'sspeech gave him new hope) of himself.Wise men began to have great confi-dence In his future. Ha had takenthe stylo of Webster for his model.Ho no longer used the broad humorwhich had characterized his efforts onthe stump. A study of the bestspeeches of tho great New 15nglnnderhnd made him qucntlon Its value Ina public address. Dignity, clear rea-soning and Imprenalvenena were thechief alma of his new method, the lat-ter of which la nptly llliiHtruted bythin passage from bin npeech In replyto Douulnn In the debate mentioned:

"If t ever feol Iho soul within moelevnto nnd expnnil to (hone dimen-sions not wholly unworthy of Ita Al-mighty Architect.

He loved to Inugh nla story-telling and to match his hnmor with Thompson Campbell—a fnmous raconteur—and to play withchildren. Fun was as necessary tohim as sleep. He searched for It Inpeople and In books.

He came often to Samson's houseto play with "Mr. Nimble" and to talkwith Joe. Some of his best thoughtscame when he wns talking with Joeand some of his merriest momentswhen he was playing wltb "Mr. Nim-ble." He confessed thnt It wns thelatter that reminded him that be hadbetter be looking' for a wife.

1 But Lincoln was only one of rannyremarkable personalities In Springfieldwho had discovered themselves andwere seeking to be discovered. Sun-dry Individuals were lifting their headsabove the crowd, but not with themodesty nnd self-distrust of HonestAbe. "Steve" Douglas, whom Samsonhad referred to as " thnt little roosterof a man," put on the stilts of n braveand ponderous vigor. His five-footstature and his hundred pounds otweight did not fit the part of Achilles.But he would have no other. He blus-tered much with a spear too heavy forhis hands. Lincoln used to call hima kind of popgun.

This free-for-all Joust of Individual-ism—one of the first fruits of freedomIn the West—gave to the life of the lit-tle village a rich flavor of comedy.The great talents of Douglas bad notbeen developed. His character was asyet shifty and shapeless. Some ofthe leading citizens openly distrustedhim. Lincoln never liked thfe littleman,. In opposing whom he was tocome to tbe fulness of his power ontbe platform. It Is evident that Lin-coln regarded him as an able advocateof small sincerity looking chiefly forpersonal advancement.

There Is a passage In tbewhich Illustrates the character of Dou-glas and Lincoln's knowledge 'of It.The passage relates to a day In thefamous debates of 1853. Lincoln hadnot reached Havana In time 'to hearthe speech of his opponent. A greatcrowd bad come by train and Inwagons. Taking advantage of his ab-sence, Douglas bad called Lincoln "aliar, a coward and a sneak," and de-clared that he was going to flgbt him.

Lincoln heard of this and said Inhis speech:

"I shall not flght with Judge Doug-las. A flght could prove nothing atIssue In this campaign. It might provethat he Is a more muscular man thanI, or that I am a more muscular manthan he, but this subject Is not men-tinned In either platform. Again, heend I are really very good friends andwhen we are together he would nomore think of fighting me than offighting his wife. Therefore, when theJudge talked about fighting, he wasnot giving vent to any 111 feeling, butwas trying to excite—well, let'us say,enthusiasm against me pn the part ofhis aueJ^tc."

Just^^accompllshed her ends nownnd then with comic displays of vio-lence In the prairie capital. One nightAbo Lincoln and certain of his friendscaptured a shoemaker who had beatenhis wife and held him at the villagepump while the aggrieved woman gavehim a sound thrashing. So this phaseof Imperialism was cured In Snrlng-fleld by "hair off the same dog," asLincoln put It.

One evening, while 1C. D. Baker wassneaking In the crowded village court-room above Lincoln's ofllco and wasrudely Interrupted nnd In danger ofassault, tho long lega of Honest Abesuddenly appeared through a scuttlehole In tha celling above the platform.He leaped upon It and seizing a stonewater pitcher defied any one to Inter-fere with the right of free speech Ina worthy causo.

So It will he neon that there werezestful moments In theae anndry vindi-cations of the principles of DemocracyIn tho prairie capital.

JUNIOR TOPIC—The Secret of Paul'sCourage.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Defense Before a Roman Governor.

TOUNQ PEOPLE AN!) ADOLT TOFtO—Paul's Defense Before Fellr.

I. Paul Accused (w. 1-9)Tertullus. perhaps a Roman 'barris-

ter, formally made the accusation ftc-cordlnR to Roman law. He began withflattery. He pave Felix the fullestpraise when he and all -the peopleknew that he lied; for Felix was oneoff the worst governor—destitute ofjBorals and Justice. He brought a four-fold charge against Paul:

1. "A pestilent fellow" (v. 5). Thiswould • Indicate a fellow utterly basaand corrupt—a plague.

2. An Inclter-of ''rebellion, a mover ofsedition (v. 5). This they hopedwould bring him Into conflict with theRoman power.

3. That he was the ringleader of aBeet—n scblsmatlcal party—a heretic(v. 5).. .

4. That he had profaned the temple(v. 6).

II. Paul's Defense (w. 10-21).In this defense note:1. Paul's frankness and courtesy (v.

10). Flattery Is entirely wanting. Hegives recognition of the fact that Felixhad been ruler of this people longenough to be nble to judge justly, asthe habits and ways of the Jews werefamiliar to him; and then. In a digni-fied manner, assumes that Felix winrender a just decision based upon thefacts of the case.

2. The charge of sedition denied (w.11, 12). He flatly and scornfully de-nied this charge, showing Its utterfalsity, since the time was too short.being but twelve days since he went to.Jerusalem, and half of that time hadbeen spent as a prisoner of the Ro-mans. Hla conduct while there dis-proved u—he disputed with no man Inthe temple; neither did he make anyattempt to Incite the people In the citynor In the synagogue.

.1. The charge of heresy (vV. 14-16).This charge he met by o concessionand a denial. He admitted that he waaof the "Way" which they called heresy,but clsnrly showed that It was Inkeeping with the Hebrew rellejqn: (1)he worshiped the same God (v. 14);(2) he fully believed In the gameScriptures (v. 14); (3) he had the samehope of a coming resurrection of the(lend (v. 15). He declared that hemade ns the principle of life a con-science void of offense before God nndman.

4. The charge of sacrilege, or profa-nation of tho temple (w. 17-21). Thischarge he refuted by showing (1) thathe hnd come all the way from Greece(v. 17) to worship at. the feast; <2)

' that ho hnd not come up empty-hand-ed, lint huil brought alms for hla na-tion (v. 17); (!l) thnt there were notcompetent wltnciJxcu present to testifyUK to bin hcjmvlor In tho tcmplo (v.ID); hy challenging hla enemies totestify aa to hla conduct In tho council(v. 20).

SOUTH JERSEY STAR, HAMMONTON. N. J.

TO3IMY KIT'S DREAM.

M RS. TABBY felt highly Insultedone morning when she went In-to the barn and found five traps

plnced nonr holes where the micelived. "The very Idea," said Mrs.Tnbby to her four kittens, "just as ifI could not attend to this withoutthese traps around,

"Children, I wont you to pny strictottcntlon to what I say, for you arenow old enough to help, nnd it maybe that I have given more time toplaying with you than to my work.iNow iyou must help. I want eachof you to watch near one of thesetraps nnd when a mouse runs out ofIts home don't let him get Into thetrap—CATCH HIM."

After telling her children this, Mrs.Tabby snt down to» watch near thefifth trap herself nnd soon all were|BO busy watching for a mouse thatthey forgot each other.j Tommy Kit, however, grew tired of(watching nnd after staring hard a

long time at the hole he was to watchbe grew sleepy and, curling up on thefloor, soon was fast asleep.

Tommy Kit had the mouse on hismind, though, and so he dreamedabout mice, and In als dream he'thought two fat mice ran out of thehole he was set to watch. Up JumpedTommy Kit and pounced upon them,catching a mouse In each paw.

"I guess none of the others will be.as smart as I am," dreamed TommyKit "I'll run right off to mother andshow her what a smart son she has."

"CLICK!" Tommy Kit opened hiseyes and there In the trap wasa mouse, and at the sound his broth-ers and mother turned and looked.Tommy felt very 'much ashamed, forthere was not a mouse In the otherfour traps.

"Why did yon let him «et pastyou?" scolded his mother. "Yourbrothers havo each caught one. I amashamed that a child of mine shouldibe BO stupid." ,

"But; I did catcli two," said Tom-my Kit, not quite sure he had dreamed'it. "I hud one In each paw when the|trap clicked. I could not catcli three,jmotlior, now could I, for I have onlytwo front paws?"

"Two mice at the same time I" cx-'clalined hl8 -mother.

Tommy Kit was now wide awake.

"I—I guess I dreamed It," he said."I dreamed I caught two mice, one Ineach paw, and I was just going toshow them to you when the trapclicked."

Mrs. Tabby quickly boxed her sonon the ear. "You fell asleep, didyou ?" she snld. "Now you sit hereand catch two mice before you get adrop of milk."

Off trotted Mrs. Tnbby with herother children, while Tommy sat sad-ly watching the hole. Out ran threemice and Tommy ran after them. Hecaught one and then seeing! the otherhiding behind a barrel he quicklywent after that, while & third was BOfrightened he ran right Into the trap.

"I could not help It mother," ex-claimed Tommy Kit, as he proudly dis-played the mice.

"That Is all traps are good for,"said Mrs. Tabby, "to catch the thirdmouse while you are chasing two,and now you children must catch twomice and drive the third Into a trap.We will soon clear this place and berid of these insulting traps as well."

But It was not long before all thekittens were sprawled out in the sunfast asleep, for they had cleared themice from the barn; but Tommy, ifhe had any more dreams, did not tellthem to his mother.

THE housing problem Is a biggerone now than It has ever beenbefore In this country. There-

It should be carried on Inan absolutely businesslike way. Justbecause you know the man you arebuying the house from la no reasonwhy you should not hove everythingabout It put down In the legal form.And Just because the man who Isbuying the house from you Is a friendof yours Is no reason why you shouldfeel any offense because he wants tobe purely businesslike about the trnns-actlotl.

"China, with her floods, Is an ex-ample to the world of the need of re-forestation," be snys. "A conservativeexpenditure for various forestry en-terprises, itnlnly .nursery work andforest planning, l« from $200,000 to aquarter million dollars, the productionof 100,000,000 trees In over 1,000 nur-series, and the planting of 25,000,000to ao.000,000 trees'on 100,000 acres oflund. This may seem small when com-pured with some other countries, butlarge when one considers the buck-ground and the fact that Cltliui'u In-terest In forestry la only u few yeursold."

"The newest provincial develop-ment," says Dean Relsner's report,has been In Shantung province,

which has come Into world promi-nence through the Shantung award,of the Paris pea'ce conference. Thiswork was organized by Mr. Lin.

'A provincial forest service has beenestablished, with a chief forester andeleven assistants. Work was prose-cuted so vigorously that the firstplanting season saw the organizationof three, forestry stations, the estab-lishment of three nurseries with plansfor two more for the following sea-son, over 550,000 trees planted.

Several other railways arecontemplating similar developments.The budgets are voted by the variousrailway administrations Interested.The forestry work of the Lung-Halrailway, which Is financed by BelgianInterests, Is under the direction of J.Hers. The reforesting has been most-ly along both sides of the railwaywhere 4,000,000 trees have been setout. /

"Tho Tlcntsln-Pultow railway for-estry work Is In charge of a gradu-ate of Harvard forestry school. About850.000 trees have been planted. ThoI'ekln-HankoXv railway's forestry workIs under the direction of Ngun Han,

a graduate of the forestry departmen'of Michigan State^pntverslty.

"The outstanding forestry develop-ment continues to be that of theKlangsu provincial forestry station,started In 1016, located near the fa-mous Ming tombs In Nankin, at thehead of which Is Somg Sing-Moo, agraduate of the Philippine school offorestry.

"Anhwel province Is now teachingforestry In four of her five agricultur-al schools. Cheklang province has asecondary forestry school with a largeenrollment. Arbor day In China Is anational holiday now and It Is ob-served In schools and by high of-ficials."

Tommy sat disconsolate. 'The coax-Ings of his setter dog. and the invit-ing appearance of a new waiting road-ster brought no Interest to his re-cently desolated life—Nltti Warrenhad thrown him over. It was un-believable, but true. Nlta, who hadwalked up tho hill with, him to schoolwhen her dark hair, now so myster-iously cotffured, hung In simple curlsto her shoulders. Why, It had alwaysbeen understood that Tommy was to>be NUa's escort; even the school teach-er paired them off at picnics. Andnow came along this new bounder,and carried her away. Not literally,of course. Nlta still graced her father'shome and dooryurd but the bounderwas usually to be found In the door-yard {op. Only last night she hadtossed her head at Tommy's humble-Invitation to the movies, and had an-swered, "No thank you, Rupert Hodgeand I are going Into the city to attendsummer opera." pupert-Hotlge, wltUhla thirty years had college days be-hlud him. Tommy had not been able-to make the college which occupied!so many of his youthful dreams.Mother had been left alone, Just afterpoor Dad had managed to put byenough for that coveted college course.The money had to be used then fortheir dally living Instead—the father-less Tommy and his mother—andTom had gone to work. That is the-name his employers In the small townbank affectionately called htm. Theythought a lot of Tom. Now when he-had been able at least to purchase theshining roadster, and mother, as wellas he, had looked forward to pleasantrides with Nlta's cheery companion-ship to make them more pltnsant, Nltaturned him down for an engaging In-terloper. Tommy was tired of "try*Ing to butt In there,'* ha told htsmother, when she warned him that"faint heart ne'er won ft.lr lady.'*Then, all at once, the new girl came-along. Even Tommy's wuary eyeawidened at sight of her.

"How do you do?" greeted thisgirt. "Is Mrs. Thornton at home?*"Mrs. Thornton was Tommy'n mother*

"I am boarding for the summerwith Mrs. West, tho Professor'swife." explained the fair call-er, "and she seat me down to see Ifwe could have some of your flowers;for a tea party. Mrs. West thoughtthat Tommy—do you happe J to be*Tommy?—would pick them for her.'"

Tom was aroused to action. "Certain-ly you may have them," he replied,."Mrs. West Is mother's friend I'll getan armful for you right now. Mother 1»out."

The June RiseEnds a Suit

By FREDERICK HART.

<£>. 1D21, by McClurft NewHpaper byndlaat*.

The little river' that divided thiMoutgomerv property from the .Trea-holm estate was a peaceful enoug]fitfeaai to all appearances; It woun<Iiizlly through the flat land of the vulley, apparently taking • always tinlongest, laziest course {o get where Iwas .going and not very particular aito when It got there. But the stream

' Innocent enough to all appearances,could make trouble when It chose,Once It ' dkl choose, during a latispring following a hard winter. Onthis occasion, swollen by the melted

There was no loss of life entailedla this whim of the fiver's; but llcaused much trouble for the two fam-ilies who lived on opposite sides of It.The title deeds to the land gave theboundaries as the river—no more, n<leas; and the new channel added 2Cacres of -land to the Montgomery es-tate and subtracted^an equal numbeifrom the Trenholm holding—goodfarming land,~ too, enriched by the de-posit from the stream.

The Trenholms went to law abouIt; the Montgoinerys defended the!:newly acquired estate with vigor; and,as Is the way of lawsuits, the casedragged on and on, arriving at no par-ticular conclusion except to causemuch bad blood where there was bulittle before and to make enemies oulof formeV friends.

Margaret Trenholm, blonde, prettyand Just turned twenty, came In forher1 share of the family feud. Herfather, hard and stern ever, Instilledor tried to Instill Into her mind hisanimosity for his neighbors; and It Islikely that he would have succeeded

"Davis I" Margaret called to him."Good morning, "dear 1" •

Davis Montgomery forgot about theJune rise and concentrated hlathoughts on the fact that across thatriver was waiting the girl he loved."Good morning, darling-!" he called Inreturn. Margaret, the better to speakto him, urged her horse to the edgeof the bank where It overhung thestream. "Be careful 1" shouted Davis."The bank's undercut there I"

But his warning came too late. Thebank, dug under by the ceaseless war*rylng of the river, crumbled and gaveway under the weight of the girl andhorse. Jn.ua Instant Margaret wasstruggling In the swift stream, cling-ing to the bridle of her frightenedmount; but In another Instant Davl»had leaped bls^horee Into the streamand the two of them were making thebest time possible out to where thebrown head of Margaret could b«seen beside the black head of herhorse.

The'struggle was brief but violent.Djivls' Dandy was used to the waterand kept his head magnificently. Afterwhat seemed ages of battle, but which,really took only a few moments, Da-vis and Dandy succeeded In draggingthe almost unconscious girl up a for-tunately, shelving bank, safe on dryland. Fhfty yards further downstreamthey could see Margaret's horse,which she had abandoned In the ef-fort to save her own life, strugglingashore, frightened but safe.

"Oh! I'm so glad!" were Margaret'snrst words. "Poor Black Beauty! Ifhe'had drowned I couldn't ever haveforgiven myself."

"Thank- goodness he's safe!1

breathed Davis. "And thank the Lordthat you're all right," he added In anunguarded tone.

Margaret heard his voice, tense withanxiety, and saw the look In his eyes;and In another moment she was In hisarms, laughing and crying at once,glad after the tension of her escape tobe .able to lean on some one whom sheloved.

Then suddenly the thought of herstern father and Davis' equally sternparent obtruded.

"Oh, Davis, dearest, why can't ourfamilies be friends? If only thatstupid lawsuit could be settled wewe could get married an* everythingwould be all right; but my daddywon't give In, and yours won't either,

—so—" Tears choked her.But Davis seemed unconscious of

her grief. "LookI Look! The river!"lie shouted.

Margaret looked as directed. Be-fore her eyes she saw the water gnaw-ing at the thin bank that divided Itfrom the old channel. The June risehad,done Its work. Even as the. twowatched tho earth gave way, therewas a great roar and a tumbling offoamy brown water, and the river, solong diverted, 1mcl found Its originalcourse again. The new channel laymuddy but empty before them, andthe lawsuit that had so long dividedtho houses of Montgomery anoV.Tren-

hn was settled out of court.It was two very happy .young peo-

ple who want up to tho Trenholmhouse an hour Inter.

"You sec," suld Mnrgnrct to Davis,"wo hnvo to toll thoirfthat the riverlias brought the families togetheragain—anil that wo are going to tlatilt) knot no tight that It cuii't eyer'Oino untied!"

Trentdn,—The first step for actualconstruction work upon the Deln\ynr<River bridge between Phlladelphiand Camden will be taken under preient plans at a meeting of the JolniCommission In November at whichla, expected plans and specificationsfor'the construction of the great callsons will be ready for approval. Bidswill then, be Invited (or the fabrlcatloof these caissons and the contracawarded, very probably, at a meetlnof the commission In December.Is the expectation of Chief Ralph ModJeskI and his assistants, George S.Webster and Laurence A, Ball, thboard of engineers, that It will requlr,probably four months for the erectloiof' these monster steel boxes and, 1thu expectation Is fully met, the cais-sons will be ready to be sunk earl;In April, which mean; that withinthan six months active work upon thconstruction of the piers for the wonderfnl span will be going on Tgreat Speed. Vast nnd interminublare the details necessary to be workeout before actual construction wor]can. begin and' the board of engineers,with Its staff of draftsmen, calculatorsand designers, has been busy day afteiday from the moment the site for th'bridge was approved on July 21 lastEvery minute detail necessary to bworked out for the erection of th,caissons has been given the most care-ful and studious attention upon th<part of the experts, the long trainingof the bridge builders furnishing vnlunble material upon which to brse alnecessary calculations and deductlons.

Daniel' E. Moran, who was engage,In August as the expert on caissonconstruction, has had long experlenciin tho construction of New York's EnsiRiver spans nnd has brought this experlence Into the work In New Jerseyproving of Inestimable value to thengineers.

Prior to the sinking of the caissons,of course, will be the razing of th,ends of tho piers on both sides of thriver to make way for them and, undepresent plans of the Joint commission,this work cnn be begun and completedIn ample tlmo.

If everything proceeds smoothly, th,property will be acquired and everything made In readiness for the contrnctors to proceed with this worlwithin n few weeks.

Interesting, Indeed, is the process o:construction nnd sinking of the hcn\ssons, the dimensions of which anseventy feet by ono hundred nnd fort,feet, bunt of steel nnd braced withthe utmost care with regard to safety, because of tho necessity for makIng thorn air and water-tight tintho extreme pressures to which theywill be mibjectx'd below tho surfaceof the water and tbo bed of the river,and tho work of laying tho pier foundatlon.i wlthln*thom.

COLORED FUR FADDyed Peltry Prominent in Some

of the Paris Studios.

Only Suitable for Evening Wear, toTrim Wraps, Scarves or Dresses,

Corre*pondent Says.

The new furs are very lovely, nndwhen I say "new" I mean Just that,asserts a fashion correspondent. Ithas become the fashion to Invent newfurs, so much so that the really rarennd valuable skins do not flnd sncbeager purchasers as do the made-up,dyed and clftverly prepared pelts.Such is the power of fashion.

In Paris colored furs, like coloredlaces, are very prominent In certainexclusive studios. And It must be ad-mitted that some of these curious fursare exceedingly attractive. My per-sonal opinion Is that they are onlysuitable for evening wear; to trtn)elaborate wraps, scarves or dresses.

There Is a beautiful shade ofraspberry pink, which Is produced Ina fur which looks exactly like ermine,but which Is In reality specially pre-pared rabbit. I saw an evening dressmade of dark-blue lace and aluminumembroidery, which was trimmed withbands of this curious fur, and anotherIn gray chiffon nnd long silver fringes.And then there Is a lovely mauve fur—also of ermine genre—which looksdelicious when mingled with creamylace, mauve panne and glittering em-broideries.

THE NEWEST NOTES IN HATS

Lace Stilt Much Used and Sometime*Seen In Streamers That Hang

to the Waistline.

Lace Is a becoming and decorativenote which Is still much nsed. It t3sometimes seen In long streamers tlmtfall from the brim across the back andhang to the waistline, or, again, It ladraped at: one side. There are someshadow designs, but the Spanish lacesare particularly Interesting and quitedifferent from anything used during"the summer, because of their definite-ly heavy puttenk and silky weave. Me-tallic laces In gold and silver are deco-rative for evening hats.

Soft willow ostrich with long flues,natural or glycerlnized ostrich feath-ers, lacquered quills, and narrow rib-bons are used for trimming. , Veryoften, black feathers are tipped withsilver.—Vogue.

The Oldest IndustryWhen the pioneer farmer beg;an to sow andreap, the development of America had be-gun. The world has moved forward sinceColonial days, but it has not left the farmerbehind, and today a new generation tills thesame fields under conditions never dreamedof by the early settlers.

Gasoline agd electricity have made thefarmer more of a-business man and less alaborer. He reaches a wider marke't andreaches it more quickly than ever before.

The telephone was among the first im-provements to come to his aid, It puts him inquick communication with his neighbors andwith the buyers of his produce. It takes himto the, city and in a measure brings the cityto him. The farm has been robbed of itsisolation and lonesomeness. >

The Bell System has kept pace with theState's progress, and often has been theadvance guard of a community's develop-ment. The growth of every section may bemeasured by the extension of its telephoneservice.
