War Mothers Join InPrayer U. 5. May Keep Out of Conflict Unpreparedness No Way To Avoid Aggression, Brig. Gen. Cox Warns ‘Washington's widespread observ- ance of Mother’s Day was climaxed yesterday by a gathering in Arling- ton National Cemetery of American ‘War Mothers, who joined in a prayer | that “our sons, grandsons and great- grandsons will never be called on to | take up arms.” The prayer was voiced by Mrs. Robert E. Ridenhour, national presi- dent of the American War Mothers. She told the assembly of some 2,000 persons that the presence of ex- soldiers in Government hospitals and institutions makes the World War still a living reality to mothers, wives and children. Those soldiers, she declared, “were sure they weref going to fight for peace. Alas, there is no peace.” Gen. Albert L. Cox, commandmg\ the District National Guard, as-| serted: “This is no time for a nauon\ hoping to avoid war to be weak in | means of self-defense. To be pre- pared is not an invitation to fight, | but, on the contrary, is a warning | . to the aggressor to keep hands off “ * * * Many useless sacrifices have | come from the necessity of sending | men to fight our battles improperly trained.” Among the first of many special church services during the day was an early mass in St. Patrick's Church attended by more than 500 members | of the Catholic Police and Firemen | Society of Washington. The Police Boys' Club Band and the police drill team led a parade from the Knights | of Columbus hall to the church. After the mass, most of the police- men and firemen met for breakfast at the Willard Hotel to hear a Mother's Day address by United States Attorney Edward M. Curran. Representative Kee of West Vir- ginia addressed about 100 friends and members of Opportunity House | at a Mother's Day and Founder's Day program at the house yesterday afternoon. Virtually all churches in the cities | celebrated the occasion with special | services, some both morning and evening, and numerous fraternal, patriotic and civic groups had Mother's Day meetings. Better Working Conditions Urged in D. C. Llaundries | A need for “vast improvements” in working conditions of Washing- ton's 5,000 laundry workers was in- dicated today in a report released by the Washington League of Women Shoppers. ‘The report was based on the find- ings of the league’s Investigating | and Living Standards Commm.ees‘ and represented an informal survey of 23 of the laundries in the District —approximately—two-thirds of thc‘ €ity’s plants. Facilities for working comfcrt of employes —toilets, emergency and rest rooms, drinking fountains, | lunchroom provisions and means of changing and taking care of cloth- ing—were said in the report to be | far short of standards recommended by experts. Three Men Are Killed In Roadhouse Fight Ev the Associated Press. v PINEVILLE, Ky., May 13—Three men were shot to death early yes-! terday in a roadhouse gun fight between members of two South- eastern Kentucky mountain families which Deputy Sheriff Leon Nuckols said hed been involved in previous shootings which cost six lives. The deputy identified the dead as Caleb Blanton, 25; his brother, Wal- ter, 40, and Clint Thompson, 25. He said Thompson apparently was| struck by a stray bullet as he stood outside the roadhouse. Deputy Jailer Willle Ball said al man booked as Sherman Hensley, | 32, & deputy constable, had been‘ surrendered to jail attaches by his father, Constable Ceph Hensley, 54. \ Constable Hensley said his son | eadmitted shooting Caleb Blanton | after the latter fired three ineffec- tive shot at him, but denied respon- sibility for the deaths of Thompson and Walter Blanton. Nearly 100,000 electric supply workers in Britain have had two wage raises in four months.

CHAPTE% XXI. “Since you are a friend of Mr. Silcott I expect Mr. Stratton would be glad to let you see the letter,” | Henrietta Windom said, helpfully. “I'm sure he would,” Russell Mose- | Iy agreed, with a tight-lipped smile. “Thank you for the information you have given me, Mrs. Windom.” I'm glad to help you,” she said, | smiling at him. “If you live near Blanco you probably know my friend, Anne Eliot. Mrs, Lamprey, she is now.” “Yes, I know her, t0o,” | replied, a little curtly. He was greatly annoyed at the whole business. The finding of the letter was a blow, but to know| Mosely | that Anne was responsible for it and that she was co-operating with his most bitter enemy was gall to his soul. Henrietta showed surprise. “You | sound very friendly, Mr.| Mosely. I'm very fond of Anne. She’s a scrumptious girl, the very | nicest I know.” “She won't let me be friendly,” “For some reason she has joined in with my enemies—with this fellow Silcott, for instance.” Mosely Condemns Silcott. “I thought Mr. Silcott such a nice man," the young woman murmured. “You thought wrong. He is a menace to the country, opposed to those who are trying to build it up. ! In fact, he is a miscreant and a | ruffian of the worst kind.” “I'm so sorry to hear that. Anne| thinks— “Miss Eliot doesn't think,” he in- terrupted. “She is guided by her emotions entirely. Because she has taken a fancy to this young man { she is letting herself into serious trouble. The fellow is an outlaw.” Mrs. Window was distressed. What ne said might be true. Not that Jim Silcott looked like a bad man. In fact, she had not met one so charming and attractive in a long time. Of course, it was possible that Mr. Mosely might be preju- diced. A flash of light came to her. “Are you a party to this lande grant suit, Mr. Mosely” she asked. “As it happens, I am,” he told her, stiffly. “I see. Naturally, you are inter- ested in old Spanish records.” Her | cool voice held an edge of sarcasm. “I have you placed now, sir. I must | not detain you any longer.” Mosely Offers Bribe. She rose, erectly dignified, to dis- miss him. Anne had given her a | | vivid account of the outrages his men had committed. He lifted a hand. ute, Mrs. Windom. young Army officer isn't paid any | too well. A little something on the | side might be a welcome addition. If you will get that letter back from Stratton I'll give you $1,000 cash for it.” Lt. Windom's wife looked at him, eyes quick with anger, blond head thrown back. Before she could speak, horses clattering down the road stopped in front of the house. She waited, listening. They heard footsteps on the porch and a moment later voices gay with laughter in the hall. The | door of the living room opened,. to let in Anne and Jim Silcott. “I think you know Mr. Mosely,” Henrietta said in a cool, snngmg “He is an antiquarian, in- | terested especially in old Spanish documents. T've just had an offer from him of $1,000 for one of Don Jose’s letters.” “Why don't you sell him one, Mrs. Windom?" Silcott said, mock- ery of his enemy in the smile he flashed. “I don't suppose he cares which letter. Any one will do.” Mosely ignored Silcott. “I warned you, young lady,” he said to Anne, “to keep out of this. You'll re- | member that too late.” He snatched up his hat and strode out of the room. I suppose a Jim Silcott and Anne came out of | the dark old governor's palace and stood blinking for a moment in the untempered New Mexico sunlight. They walked along the front of the long one-story adobe building, which | occupied an entire side of the town | Plaza, then turned to the left and strolled past the stores on the ad- wacent side of the quadrangle. In | front of-a saloon Sileott pulled up sharply. His gaze was fixed on four horses at a rack close to the sidewalk. Anne said, “What's the matter?” He stepped into the dusty road to examine the brand on one of the horses. Swining the cow pony around, Jim pointed to the design burned on its flank. “The Hat T brand,” he said. “On I'm wondering what it is doing here.” Silcott looked over the other three horses. “This roan is a Hat T bronc. The others may be, too, though they haven't Mosely’s brand.” “The riders must be inside this saloon,” Anne said. “We'd better go. They might come out and find us here’” “I don’t reckon they would bother me while I'm with you,” Jim said ;asuy But he fell into step with JeT Silcott dropped around to report the latest development to Stratton. They discussed the situation. Fears Torture Likelihood. “When Mosely offered Mrs. Win- dom $1,000 for the letber he was making his first move,” Jim judged. “He won't stop there. What will his next step be to get the letters?” “I don't know.” Stratton thought it over. “Do you think he will try to bribe me?” “No. He knows you are not for “Just a min- | THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, sale. My guess is that he will stand back and let his foreman, this Jud Prentiss, deal with you.” “Make his offer throuzh him, you mean?” “Yes.” The face of the Powder Horn man was grim. “But there won't be any cash involved. This Prentiss is a bad man, a killer. I think T'll take the letters with me.” The lawyer pointed to an iron safe. “They are locked up there. Mr. Mosely’s handy man would be good if he could get them out of that steel container.” “You don't know Prentiss,” answered Silcott. “There’s Indian blood in that scalawag. He might try Apache tricks on you.” Stratton was startled. “You mean :xi:rture me to get the lock combina- on.” “Jud would enjoy that. born bully.” “If you had the letter would it be any safer?” “I can put it where he wouldn't know where to find it.” Silcott Takes Letters. “Can you put yourself where he wouldn't know where to find you?” Stratton asked dryly. “You men- tioned his Apache tricks.” | Jim gestured that off lightly. “I'll {have to take my chance with Mr. Prentiss. He and I are old acquain- tances.” { | This was not very satisfactory to |the attorney, but neither was the | alternative. He did not quite believe that Mosely would let his men go ase far as the Diamond Slash owner | had indicated, but dark rumors of | | his methods had been bruited about | ‘the town. Also, Silcott had told | him of the recent attack on his life. | | | After all this was the fight of the | Armijo grant purchasers. Their lawyer was employed to handle only the legal end of it. Stratton un- ylucked the safe and handed the\ | Gandara letters to Jim. “I don’t need to tell you how im- ‘porbam these are to our suit,” he said. “You'll be careful of them.| | Will you take them to the bank? | | You can't tonight. It's closed.” | Jim smiled. “If you knew where | I was going to put them they might | as well be in your safe. When Pren- | | tiss inquires, just refer him to me. 1 “If he does,” corrected Stratton. | The attorney watched his client going down the street, his slim com- pact figure erect and jaunty. There | | was something about this cool and | reckless youth that inspired con- | | fidence. | Finds He Is Shadowed. | ‘\ As Jim moved down the street | toward the plaza he became aware | that he was being followed by a | Mexican vaquero. The man might | simply be going in the same direc- | tion as Silcott, or he might had been deputed to trail him. Jim | decided to find out. He stepped into a drygoods store and bought a shirt. ‘When he came out the vaquero was looking in the show window at some gay bandanna handkerchiefs. Jim crossed the plaza, his shadow in attendance. At a second store he bought some wrapping paper and a ball of string. From there he went | to his hotel and wrapped two pack- ages. In one were the Gandara letters ,and in the other a folded copy of the latest issue of the “New Mexican.” With a pencil he marked | one of the little parcels in order not | to make a mistake. He had been invited to the Win- | doms for supper and he made him- self as presentable as possible. There |was a young woman there before whom it was important to him that he appear at his best. One of the | packages he concealed inside his shirt. The second one he put in his coat pocket. To be fully dressed, he took out and tested the revolver strapped in a holster underneath his left arm, and then replaced it carefully. The vaquero was still on the job. | He sauntered after Silcott to the post office and from the window watched him take the parcel from his coat pocket and address it. His black eyes observed the Diamond Slash man hand the pacakeg in for weighing, buy stamps and leave it with the clerk to be sent to its | destination. Stops at Saddlery. | Jim had one more call to make before he reported at the Win- doms. He stopped at a saddlery | store just below the plaza to see | its proprietor, an old friend who had ridden the brush country of Texas with his father. From the doorway Jim called in cheerily, “How you making it with that saddle I ordered, old-timer?” Homer Caldwell was a big lank man close to 60, with a long reach of well-muscled limbs. He had a lean, bony face with a hawklike nose and deep, piercing eyes gleam- ing out beneath grizzled brows. Even in the store he wore a wide sombrero and cowboy boots, into the tops of which the legs of his jeans were thrust. If he was surprised at this refer- ence to the order for a saddle never mentioned to him before he gave no sign of it. Perhaps Silcott's wink tipped him off. “Why, I'm makin' progress,” he said. “But I didn't expect you here so soon. I had some trouble fixing up the skirt with the sudadero just the way you wanted it. You're such a particu- lar buzzard, Red. Come along in and have a look-see.” Jim walked into the store and pretended to examine the tree of a saddle, which rested on a frame and had not yet been completely draped. “It's shaping fine,” he said. “Lis- ten, Homer. I'm being watched. Keep up talk about the saddle.” Silcott Hides Package. Caldwell talked, his eyes on Sil- cott, who had drawn a parcel from under his coat and was apparently studying a pair of saddlebags close at hand. “Tell me if I'm being noticed right now,” Silcott murmured. “No, sir,” Caldwell told him, after 8 swift look toward the door. “I claim youre wrong about that. What does a kid like you know about the fit of the basto? I've not only made saddles. I've rid 'em a-plenty before you were weaned.” Jim’s hands, moving swiftly, transferred the package to one of the pockets of the saddlebags. “All right. All right” He seem&d to concede the point. “You don’t need to get on the prod, Homer, because I like a saddle the way I like it. I've forked a few in my time if I ain’t old. Methusaleh like you.” His voice dropped a note, but not too obviously. “I'll come and get it myself when I'm ready.” “That's all right.” They had be- gun to move toward the front of the He's a right smart | souri.

The scientific name, though not so old, means the same. This fern has a wide range, be- | ginning in Canada, going as far | south as Flodida and west to Mis- It has been seen in some parts of California. It is also known in Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia Even though this little fern is so widely distributed, you are sur-‘ prised how few fern lovers know the haunts in which they may find | large numbers of them. Once you ! have trained your eyes to recognize | the fern among the grasses and | other spots, you are delighted to! find it in so many places you have been visiting, where you previously overlooked this member of the clan. Many have taken the adder’s tongue for a flowering plant, mis- taking the tongue for seeds. Others have thought it to be the two-leaved Solomon’s seal. Once you get started on locations in which to seek this fern, you will learn from one authority that you must always hunt for it in damp meadows. Then some one else will tell you that only in dry woodlands can it be seen, and still another will say it is only to be found in red cedar groves and dry open woods. Perehaps each is correct— for particular places. The adder’s tongue belongs to an ancient race and the fruiting spike, consisting of two rows of sporanges embedded in the tissue, indicates that this fern retains the primitive way of bearing spores. In Northeastern America there is but a single species, unless the two forms known today are proven to be distinct. There are three other species that are sometimes found in tropical sections of America. The highest these ferns reach|Fox T into the air is rarely more than 12 inches, the average height being 6 inches. The blade or sterile part is from 2 to 4 inches long, being ovate, obleng or lanceolate, and as a rule is narrow at the base and somewhat fieshy. This. blade is borne, slightly lower than the middle of the common stalk and is store. “I could sack the saddle and ship it, but if you're gonna be in you might as well pick it up.” Jim stopped a moment at the entrance. The vaquero and another man were lounging outside the door of the adjoining saloon. (To Be Continued.) [ often so mixed in with slender blades of grass that it is unnoticed. The narrow fruiting spike is from one-half to 2 inches long snd made up of two rows of sporanges. At one time, when herbs with names that were more romantic than truthful were used for making salves, the adder's tongue was boiled with unsalted butter, and this mixture was supposed to heal the wounds made by an adder or a lizard. wound healing, we know there were no medicinal properties in the cooked spike of the adder’s ton- gue. The little fern is charming, but lacks enough appeal to cause us to|: cultivate it. 4-H Training Course ROCKVILLE, Md., May 13 (Spe- | cial.—A training class for Mont- | | gomery County 4-H Club presidents and leaders will be held at the office of the county agent, Rock- ville, tomorrow night, according to announcement by Rufus B.
