Lord Nertheliffe’s personality domi- nated newspapers, They re- flected his opinions, and more often a reader of one of his publications thought-more frequently of North- cliffe in reading The London ‘Times than of the newspaper as an institution. Northcliffe was loved and hated, and prebably did not care. For mang years before the war he ieltled trong influence on na- tional life in Great Britain. He was often called “the cabinet maker” and many a powerful politician and staté:man fell before his terrific zttacks which gained for him the sobriquet of “The Thunderer.” He refused to accept an official posi- he always kept free of en- 'g alliances and it is said he iled to criticize a friend as 1s a foe if he believed} sm wag due. twas during the war that North- cliffe rose to his greatest achieve- ments. When British. soldiers were fighting in Flanders and ‘the gov- ernment was exercising a wide- spread censorship to keep news from the enemy—and from her own people,—‘Lord Northcliffe learned that the British commander in France was calling for high ex- plosive shelly to meet the German attacks and the British war office wap sending shrapnel. He braved the censorship, all officialdom, cven public indignation, to tell the truth. His newspapers were burned in the strect; he was attacked in parliament. But he was right. The truth could not be denied. The situation was corrected and the British soldiers were given an equal chance with the Germans, He demanded a small compact war cabinet which resulted.in the ele- yation of Lloyd George to power; he declared that conscription must be adopted. And because he was igkt he won. He accepted his first official position when he agreed to head a mission to the Unitea| States, and later wag created a Vis- count by the officialdom which had denounced him. | An interesting part of Lord Norihcliffe’s career was his relation to ldoyd George. Responsible for George’s elevation to power, istent supporter during the nd regarded as a_ personal 1, he disagreed with the pre- ier’s policies after the war on all important questions save the Irish issug. His papers have been, and now the deadly opponents of Lioyd George. « % Northcliffe is not the first and only cditor who has been publicly he had the courage the first in which the sdme people who denounced an editor later ac- claimed hig foresight. But he is prcebably the:most noted exponent of that phase of journalism in which it is the man and not the institution which speaks through the eolumns of a newspaper.

DANGER AGES The danger ages for girls are 16 and 17, says Maude. BE. Miner,. sec- retary of an association that checks up such things. A good many of our modern prob-- lems are due, to unfair economic conditions, that compel boys and; girls to go to work too soon. ‘” Every girl should remain at home until ghe is 18, And no boy:should have to quit school, until at least 20.

Civilization shortens youth, ~ KEY FOR WRITERS Galsworthy, international writer says Maupassant “taught writers what to leave out.” O. Henry was the same. fame depends as much on what is left out as what he wrote. The principle applies to..most} lives. The thingy we don’t do are as important as the things we do. Success is easy for the person who develops judgment that enables him to omit futile effort. Some of the greatest successes’ are :chronically lazy. His; : RUNAWAY Harry Overman, ‘eight years old, runs away from ‘his home in Néw York City, for the fifty-second time. (Harry sees the light early in life and tries to escape to the. country. New York, of course, is unable to understand why anyone should want to escape from it. So when it sends the story out on the tele-) graph wires it explains that, Har- ry’s head was injured several years | ago in an auto accident. A blow gn the head sometimes restores sanity.

Show me cumstances. The shot was fired a few moments before : ANTONY GILLINGHAM, _ gentle- man adventurer and friend of BILL BEVERLEY, one of’ Mark’s guests, had entered the hall where he found MATT CAYLEY, © Mark’s constant companion, pounding on the door and’ demanding admittance. The two men enter the room through a window and find the body. Antony and Bill continue inves- tigations and become convinced that Cayley’ knows something about the crime. They discover a secret passage. leading from The Red House to the bowling green and then Antony questions the maid, Elsie, who overheard Mark -speaking to Robert in the office. by ba THE STORY aad ‘bu: who heard Mr. Mark Antony GO “It w yesterday, wasn’t sket the maid. “Yes, sir.” .

Antony was glad to have spoken to her, because he had recognized at once the immense importance of her evidence. To_the inspector no doubt it had scemed only of im- portance in that it had shown Mark to have adopted something of a threatening attitude toward his brother. To Antony it had much more significance. It was the only trustworthy evidence that Mark had been in the office at all that after- neon, For who saw Mark go into the office? Only Cayley. And if Cayley ; had been hiding the truth about the keys, why should he not be hiding the truth about Mark’s entry into ithe office? Obviously all Cayley’s evidence went for nothing. Some of it no doubt was true; but he was giving it, both truth and falsehood, with a purpose. What the purpose | was Antony did not know as yet; to shield Mark, to shield himself, even | to betray Mark—it might be any of these, |. E'sie’s evidence, however, seemed to settle the point.

If Cayley comes in, we can always pretend we're choosing a book.” Antony got up slowly, took his; arm and walked back to the house with him, na, The library was worth going into, passages or No passages. Antony could never resist another person’s bookshelves. As soon as he went into the room, he found himself wandering round it to see what books the owner read, or (more likely) did not read, but kept for tke air which they lent to the house, ‘Mark had prided himself on his li- brary. It was a mixed collection of books. Old editions, new editions, expensive books, cheap books—a library in which everybody, what- ever his taste, could be sure of find- ing something to suit him. “And which is. your’ particular taney. Bill?” said Antony, looking ffom one shelf to anothér. “Or are you always playing ‘billiards?” “I have a look at ‘Badminton’ sometimes,” said Bill. “It’s over in that corner there.” He waved a hand. “Over here?” said Antony, going to it. “Yes.” He corrected himself suddenly. “Oh, no, it’s not. Mark hada grand re-arrangement of his library about a year ago. him more than a week, he told us. He's got such a frightful lot, hasn't he?” “Now that’s very interesting,” said Antony, and he sat down and filled his pipe again.. There was indeed a “frightful lot” of books. The four walls of the library were plastered with them from floor to ceiling save only where the door and the two win- dows insisted on living their own life, even though an illiterate one. To Bill it seemed the most hopeless room of any in whch to look for a secret openng.

HAIG RETURNS TO | | London, Aug, 15.—Field Marshal Earl Haig has been elected a dirce- tor of the Distillers: company at the annual meeting held in Edinburgh. The chief product of the company is whiskey. There are some people who think it rather detracts from the | field marshal’s digutty and reputation to be interested in a business of that ‘sort, but their disapproval is hard- ly as vocal as it would be in Amer- ica. The Haigs have long been finan- cially interested in whiskey. Earl Haig is usually credited with being thorough in all that he does, and he intends to be thorough in the whiskey business. When he was asked to join the Board of Directors he consented, it was stated, “on the” understanding that he would be no mere figure-head, but would take his ful share of the work as well as of the responsibility attached to the of- fice.” , He is like to have plenty to do. The Distiller’s company is planniny to increase greatly its whiskey out- put, both in Ireland as well as Scot- lan. It has. acquired half the shares of the United Distilleries of Belfast and expects soon to acquire the en- tire concern. pi organ Tere NS | NewsFlashes_ | (By the Assoclated Press) Buttay Mont.—Sam Protine, 98 year old policeman, bodyguard for President Lincoln, who obtained a license to marry a 64 year old circus rider several days ago, died.
