Enquirer, which recently said: The Red Cross—it is, indeed, the “Great Mother,” More than 12,000,000 men, women and children received disaster and unem- ployment relief from this source during the fiscal year ending June 30. So says the report of the organization, just made public. The organization of the Red Cross used $3597,282 of its own funds for the idle, for drought sufferers and other groups. Its dis- tribution of wheat and other supplies to the unemployed tempered want and prevented destitution on the part of hundreds of thousands of human beings in sore distress. Wheat, flour feed-stuffs for live stock, cloth- ing, shelter, garden seed, nursing care and advice—all these things came from the hands of this great almoner of the republic. It has led the coordination of relief agencies, churches and public - spirited citizens, in forming a strong and effective central com- munity interest—supplying funds when local funds were exhausted. The Red Cross also gave emergency and other relief in 90 disasters while carrying on the vital unemployment relief—disasters of fire and flood and famine and. tornado. It has dealt heroically and effectively with hundreds of thousands of ex-service men and their families and with thousands in hos- pitals—with problems of public health and the home. It has been the hand servant of the Government and the guardian of the people. . . . The Red Cross holds a warm place in the great, humane heart of the world.

We The United States is one of the most hlghly, based on selfishness but so is business. Business people try to make the best possible deal for them- selves. With a neighbor holding these views we are bound to act on the defensive and raise our tariff walls so that we may be in a position to negotiate for lower tariffs. For years we have been saking for the abolition of the two cents duty on halibut with no results. We have had nothing to offer in return for the concession. With our present high tariffs we can negotiate for lower tariffs with our neighbor. Re- ciprocity is now a possibility, especially in view of the position we hold in the British Empire since the Ottawa conference. It became necessary to meet fire with fire. We have done this but we cannot live on fire. We need international trade and we can now talk turkey with the United States with some hope of success, especially if the Demo- cratic Party should be successful there next week, which seems altogether likely.

In Pennsylvania one county of- ficially sets the third Monday of next March for hearing brewery license applications.

While he is supposed to be out of Chicago on busi- ness, che strips the apartment she has paid for since their marriage of her things. In her confused mind are many mem- cries — her mistake in jilting Clive to,marry Dicky, her past full of flirtations, the attract- ive lawyer she has questioned about a diverce. But chiefly there is anger that Dicky has given her coat to Lou-Lou, who was the first of Dicky's “old friends” she found out. CHAPTER 1. ENTER DICKY ed States Customs Collector J.

Without the least intention, you've made unfair com- petition for me.” “This sounds nonsense.” “I agree,” Dicky laughed. “But it isn't. Youre the white-haired boy. If you were to tell Santa that she ought to take me back, she would pay attention.” Clive blew a ring of smoke. “Supposing I don't think she ought to take you back? From all I've heard you've been a beast to her.” “As a man of the world, in a marital quarrel you surely don't believe that all the justice is on one side? You yourself were once in love with her and didnt have such an easy time. You'd be standing in my shoes tonight if I hadn’t cut you out. Instead of you.” {said. Stimulated by this encourage- ment, Dicky continued. “Since she’s been my wife, I've done nothing more offensive that she’d seen me do during our en- gagement.” “Nothing?” Clive switched on a near-by lamp. Dicky became uncomfortable, and hesitated. . “She’s certainly seen me hilari- ous. She may have fooled herself that she was the cause. Anyway, ll was always a top-speed artist and a great one for parties. While I was her fiance, that suited Santa down to the ground. We saw the town with one foot on the gas. Not till we were married did she apply the brakes. We skidded. Went on skidding. At last we've crashed.” “She applied the brakes when she discovered that she was mar- ried to a gentleman bum.” Clive spoke insolently and waited for the explosion. “You've snatched the words from my mouth,” Dicky surprised him. “I was on the road to the devil Unfortunately this was the first time I'd been asked to hustle and my solitary business went up the flue while we were on our honey- moon. That threw me on her resources. 8o, if you come right down to it, the trouble between us is money. Other things aren’t the cause. They're the aggravation.” Clive swung his leg over the arm of his chair. “What do you propose to do?” “What I've done is more im- portant. I haven't had a drink since she left me. T've gone to work—accepted the first job that offered. T'm an automobile sales- man.” “But I meant as concerns San- ta?” “I've lain down.
