PROPAGANDA GURB West End Group Would Fa- miliarize Stucents With Constitution. Declaring itself aroused by persistent reports of increased un-American ac- tivities in the schools and universi- tles, through the distribution of com- munistic and fascistic propaganda, the West End Citizens’ Association last night demanded the Board of Educa- tion be required to place copies of the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution in the hands of every pupil from the fourth grade up at the beginning of each school year. In a resolution introduced by David Simons of the Grant School Parent- Teacher Association, the association further requested that the committing to memory of the preamble to the Constitution be made a prerequisite to graduation fronf' junior high schools and the private schools of the same rank. Replacement of the narrow single- lane bridge on K street, near River- side driye and Twenty-ninth street, was asked in another resolution. A letter of condolence was ordered sent to school authorities at Willlams- port, Md., expressing the association’s sympathy in the death of the 14 school children in a bus-train collision last Thursday near Rockville. The group also asked the Federation of Citizens’ Associations to write a similar letter. Other resolutions adopted by the association made the following re- quests: Installation of a traffic light at Nineteenth street and Constitution avenue; placing of a policeman at Twenty-second and G streets between the hours of 8:30 and 9 am.; that advance notices be sent to merchants informing them when their licenses to sell candy have expired, and that the Municipal Swimming Pool on the Washington Monument Grounds be retained. MAN KILLS FAMILY, THEN SLAYS SELF Maid and Sister Flee From House After Gun Fails to Fire at Them. By the Associated Press. OMAHA, Nebr., April 16.—As his household slept, Louis M. Foley, 40, set out destroy every one in it. Firing a shot at his wife as she lay in bed, Foley went into the next room and killed his son Billy, 10, and his daughter, Betty Lou, 6, as they slept. Then he threw open the door of a room occupied by the mald, Elsie Obr, and her sister Ellen. His gun failed to fire. The two girls slammed the door shut, leaped out & window and called police. The po- lice found Foley dead. He had shot himself in the head after wounding his wife seven times. Mrs. Foley died of her wounds in a hospital. She lived long enough to tell of Foley's murderous rampage and 1o say he had suffered a nervous breakdown recently. Her death com- pleted the destruction of the Foley family—father, mother and children. | SERVICE ORDERS | ARMY ORDERS. Laubach, Lieut. Col.

DON'T know that I ever did,” 14 Jane answered proudly. “And now that I know his taste in women, I care less than be- fore.” “A common little thing like Leslie . . . it's impossible that James should be in love with her! I never did trust her. You'd think to meet her that butter wouldn't melt in her mouth, but she's a sly, double-dealing little minx. “Look how she acted when you brought those Army officers up here from Fort Leavenworth! She always has been jealous of you. Mark my words. She’s said something to James to prejudice him against you.” The mention of the Army officers was unfortunate. A few months be- fore Jane had managed to wangle an invitation to a hop at Fort Leaven- worth and promptly and triumphant- ly corralled four of the most attrac- tive and eligible young bachelors at the post for a week end of unprece- dented and lavish entertaining. Her guests had repaid Jane by dangling around Leslie, dancing with Leslie, flirting with Leslie, slipping off to call on her every time Jane's back was turned. And now it was Leslie who was continually pressed to come down to the post and very, very seldom Jane. Jane stabbed her mother to the heart by bursting into passionate sobs . . . Jane who even as a child almost never cried. “There, there, dearie,” Mrs. North- rup said soothingly. “It isn't worth crying about. I'll see that your father gets you that diamond and pearl bracelet. I haven't a doubt that poor James is secretly eating his heart out and running around with Leslie only to spite you. Why, you have only tb‘; lkm. your little finger to get him ok Jane had already lifted more than & finger, but she could not tell her mother that. “I don't want him back,” she sobbed. “I despise him. But it's all s0 humiliating. . . . wouldn’t marry him if he was the last man in the world, but I can't bear to have that miserable, simpering Leslie crowing over me and snatching away the only . . . only really eligible prospect in this . . . this miserable little hole.” Mrs. Northrup's mouth trembled, but there came a dark, vindictive gleam in her eye. Jane, for all her REAT RICHES) Mateel Howe Farmham brave pretense, was in love with that wretcched weakling, James Stimson. Mrs. Northrup never altogether for- gave James for that moment when her darling broke down and cried in her arms. Jane was proud. And extremely jealous of her dignity. She had few secrets from her mother, but she felt she would rather die than let any one else guess that James meant any more to her than Nappy, his office boy. So she gave a dinner and included James and Leslie and seated them next to each other at the extreme end of the table. By inviting one of the Army wives and her husband from Fort Leavenworth Jane was able to get another officer for herself—not one of the four who had visited her—and as he was a Southerner and a natural flirt, Jane managed to put on a good show at her end of the table. But between laughter and gay sal- lies she kept her eyes on James and Leslie. Up to this moment Jane had believed that Leslie had deliberately ensnared James for no other reason than to spite her—Jane. Leslie did not neglect the man on her left, if anything talked more to him than she did to James. But Jane caught the look that Leslie gave James when he ' was turned away from her. So the printer’s daughter fancied herself in love with Gov. Stimson’s grandson! No doubt she actually aspired to marriage in a family that would no more have thought of recognizing her father and mother than they would have thought of inviting their gar- bage man to their table. If the girl had any sensitiveness, and decent pride . . . “Child, you're not doing your duty to the stranger within your gates,” drawled the young captain who sat on her left. “Duty? Do you think it's a duty?” laughed Jane. She looked no more at Leslie and James. She had believed in James, believed that he was made of finer stuff than the other village clodhoppers. Already he had shown Good thing for her she had found out in time that he was, after all, just a country bumpkin. With his ugly red hair, his gawky way of standing and sitting—why he was all arms and legs. He had no air, no polish. He blushed if any one so much as looked at him abruptly. He had about as much chance of being an ambassador . . . All the while Jane was conscious, she could not have told how, that James and Leslie were holding hands under the table. That was the finish- ing touch. Of all the rude, ill-bred, gauche exhibitions . . . Jane was aware that a strong bony masculine hand was seeking hers. And presently found it and held it and pressed it warmly. There was com- fort in that warmth and masculine strength. She blushed and did not for & fnoment or two withdraw her hand. After all there were as good fish . .. better fish . But after Ca and had sent her no more than a per- functory note of thanks, without seek- ing out the further meetings he had talked about so ardently, Jane found it was not so easy to remain con- temptuously superior. If the twins would only leave her alone ... if she dared complain to her father ... Jane had been an only child until she was 12 years old, when her amazed and somewhat irritated mother pre- sented her with twin brothers. The twins, Norris and Nate, literally almost from their babyhood, had made it clear that their twinship erected a sort of impassable barrier between them and the rest of the world; their family included. And the barrier was highest between Jane and the twins. She could not even understand them. . Henderson had gone “Only a bird with a wounded heart,” sing the twins, tomorrow.
