Merchants The Association of New York Organizes Reserve Corps for Mem- bers Beyond Military Age. New York, July 17.—To afford business men who are too old for active military service, an opportunity to help the army in time of war, the Merchants’ Assoclation of New York, is organizing a quartermaster serve corps. The association nounces that the plan has the proval of the war department ‘Washington. In its communication to the war department, and public today, the as- soclation asks who will do this quar- termaster service in times of military stress if it be not done by exper- fenced business men. “Either young officers will be with- drawn from the line or inexperienced civilians will be called upon; or, worst of all, these important posi- tions will be the pawn of politicians. As a measure of what is involved we may recall the camp tragedies of 1898. “Trade bodies such as ours are so suited to the task of representing such a group of reserve officers of quartermaster corps, that this oppor- tunity of service to the nation seems re- an- ap- at to us the call of patriotic duty.” How Cora and David Temple A STORY YOU CAN BEGIN Her Side- AT ANY TIME and His Solved Their Marital Problems By ZOE BECKLEY Temple on Sunday. ter acquainted. myself at vour orders.” was her battle with Cora.

The star is well known, having appeared in some of the most important productions of re- cent vears and the play itself is one is worth while, teaching a wholesome lesson without wearying anybody in doing it. ‘“Today” is full of life and holds the interest from the start. It is on four acts and all of the scenes are laid in New York., It gives good roles for the members of che Poli Players, who will be seen in sup- port of Mr. Arden. DE WOLF HOPPER ON FOX’S SCREEN the start at this week, will be seen of For today and tomorrow the Fox theater will offer the popular Broad- way light comedian, De Wolf Hopper, in “Mr. Goode, The Samaritan.” This is the story of a wealthy old gentle- man with philanthropic notions. While auto riding with his family he meets with an accident and falls into the path of a gentleman crook who sells him a stolen automobile. The complications arising from this situa- tion make the story of this film one of the most amusing ever present on the screen. The Paramount pla: wil also offer the noted English actress Peggy Hy- land in a picturization of Henry Ar- thur Jones' celebrated drama “Saints And Sinners.” This deals with the kidnapping of a minister’s daughter by her supposed honorabla lover. ‘What she does under the existing cir- cumstances is dramatically and in- terestingly told in this wonderful Paramount play. The Keystone will be seen in a two act comedy entitled “Bubbles Of Trouble" and the Paramount will offer their educational feature the pictograph. Starting with tomorrow’s matinee all children, regardless of age will be per- mitted to attend performances at this theater, if properly accompanied. CHAPLIN COMEDY TO TOP KEENEY PROGRAM Another Charlie Chaplin week will be ushered in at Keeney's tonight when famous comedian will make his bow from the screen in “The Vaga- bond,” his latest laugh-provoking success. “The Vagabond” is said to be the funniest picture in which Chaplin has been seen since he.signed his re- markable contract with the Mutual Film company and in the cities where it has already been shown it has scored a tremendous hit. New Britain is not expected to prove an exception to the rule and despite the warm weather _ crowded houses should be the rule all week, as the film will be shown every afternoon and evening. Referring to warm weather it is per- haps well to remember that the ven- tilating plant which is in operation at the theater is one of the best in any playhouse in New England. The theater is kept at a low temperature even during the summer and the pat- Tons are comfortable at all times. During this week in addition to the Chaplin release there will be the usual How She “I don't see how you can bear to let Junior have a bicycle,” I heard ore of my neighbors say to another the other day. Junior's mother rocked herself into reach of the mending basket, took cut a pair of Junior's stockings and @sked serenely, “Why?” “Because there are so many au- tomobiles arounad,” the neigh- bor. “Angd the children are so car less with their bicycles. Just sup- | pose he were there in the middle of the street and one of those reckless drivers were to come dashing around the corner, the way they do, and he should lose his head and turn the wrong way."” Give Them As Good a Training As Possible, Junior’s mother wove a swift needle in and out the cross threads of a very big hole, the kind a small boy in- variably gets on his knee. “Junior is eight,” she said. “We've taught hiuw that he must obey the laws of the road by keeping on the right-hand side, and he is to have the wheel on condition that he will be careful. I suppose there are some chances of danger to him, but wouldn’t there still ve if I walted a year or five years more?

The big house seemed very lonely to me after my mother-in-law’s abrupt I had not dreamed that I could possibly miss the older vioman's companionship, especially after her hateful behavior concerning my refusal of the school position. But when she had left, in dignified dudgeon, for a visit with her daugh- ter, Elizabeth, I realized that I had come to like her, to depend upon her companionship more than I had thought possible. If the country had not been so beautiful I would have proposed golng back to the city.

We couldn't entirely safeguard even our adult selves against it unless we stayed in a padded cell all the time. And then we would so undermine our health that we would be in greater danger than ever, Training Must Take the Place Of Constant Watching. Children have to take some chances along with the rest of us. And much as we hate it, we've got to let them. As a child grows old- er training must take the place of watching and it behooves us to look the more carefully after that train- ing. Of course we must use our com- mon sense about this and not let our children run extraordinary sks, but likewise we must uase our { common sense on ourselves and not let ourselves t to insure our peace of mind by a wrapped-in-cotton-wool existence for our children. “I shall worry” is an iron despotism by which some women rule their households. And like all rod of despotisms it results in resentment and hard feeling. ¥ S o o SR | Dicky had brought to me kept close | to me all day long, Katie waited on me hand and foot, and, I had time for the Intimate assaciation with the woods and fields that I had longed for since my babyhood. But m>r uneasiness concerning Dicky's friendship with Grace Draper, his beautiful protege, was deepening to real alerm and anger. I had nothing more tangible than the neigh- borhood gossip, which I had so thoroughly repulsed when it was offered me by Mrs. Hoch and her daughter. But Dicky was becoming more and more distrait, and when he would allow nothing to keep him from 1aking the marning train on which Miss Draper traveled to the studio, I remembered that when we had first come to Marvin he had taken any forenoon train he happened to choose. The second morning after his mother’s departure, Dicky almost missed kissing me good-by in his mad haste to catch his train. He rushed out of the door after a most perfunc- tory peck at my cheek, and I saw him almost running down the little lane bordered with wild flawers that led “across lots” to the railroad station. “I cannot bear this much longer,” I muttered to myself, clenching , my hands, as I saw the Hochs, mother and daughter, watching him from their screened porch, and imagined their satirical camments on his eager- ness to make the train. I sat listlessly on the veranda for an hour. Then the ringing of the telephone roused me. As I took down the receiver I heard the droning of the long distance operator: “Is this Marvin, 971,” and at my affirmative answer the husky voice of Lillian Un- derwood. “Hello, my dear.” Her volce had the comforting warmth which it had held for me ever since the memorable day when by her library fire we had resurrected the secret which her past life and Dicky’s shared. We had buried it again, smoothed aut all our misunderstandings in the process and been sworn friends ever since. “Oh, Mrs. Underwood!” My voice was almost a peal of joy. ‘I am so glad to hear your vaice." “Something Important—" ““Are you very busy? Is there any- thing you cannot leave for the day? She was direct as usual. 1 answered. “Good. Then what train can you get into tawn, and where can I meet you? I want you to lunch with me. I have something important to over with you.” I hastily consulted my watch. I hurry I can catch the 10:21. Where can I see you? The train reaches the Pennsylvania at 11 o’clock.” “I'll be in the waman's waiting room at the Pennyslvania, not the Long Island, the main waiting Toom. Look for me there.” “Won't that be inconvenient yoeu?” “Nat a bit. for “Only the dog and cat and Katle,” | talle { wre | I have to go within a | block of there this morning, anyway. “Very well, then. I'll be Good-by.” As I hung up the receiver I wa conscious of two distinct emotions, therd, * ¢ne of gladness at the apportunity of§f seeing Lillian Underwood once more, the other of terror over what she had to tell me. For with a swift prescience, I felt that the ‘““something important” had something to do with Dicky. Is Dicky the Reason? She had the opportunity to know Dicky's temperament as no other pers. son had. She had been the friend and comrade af guiding youthful student days, she had made a supreme his rifice for him, and gained his ever lasting reverence and gratitude thereby. Her studio was on the same floor as his, giving her an unexcelled opportunity to know all the bappenings of his life, She had warned me once of Dicky's propensity ta be ephemerally attracted by a beautiful face, and had tried to show me what course of conduct would best avall me in dealing with my husband’s mercurial temperament, What had she discovered that made her summon me so abruptly? daily~ Then with a swift revulsion of feel-" ing I laughed at my own fears. Be- cause of my mather-in-law’s prejudice against Mrs. Underwood I had only been able to see her by stealth since Dicky’s mother had come to live with us. I could count on the fingers of one hand the meetings we had had since our memarable chat by the library fire. For six weeks I heard nothing of her. Her little girl, whom Lilllan had given up to the custody of her first husband at the time of her divorce from him, had been taken to a mountain resort by her grandmother. Following her un- alterable custom of being near the child, though unknown to her, Lillian bad gone to another hotel near her. Perhaps she wished to tell me ting about the little girl instead giving me a warning about Dick But though I tried hard to ma myself believe otherwise, the convi tion that Dicky was the real reason for my invitation to luncheon stayed with me during the trip to town. My worry must have been reflected in my face, for I saw Lilllan cast a shrewd glance at me as she met me with out- stretched hands “I never would have dared to ask vou to come in if I had known it was going to be so hot,” she said in her usual impulsive manner. “But I hadn't seen you for so long, and I wanted sa much to tell you of my hafe ¢ little girl that when I found out from’ Dicky his mother had gone away couldn’t wait to see you any lon Her words relieved my anxie suppose she intended they should. felt the tension of the hours since her message relax.
