Whitman with informatfon upon which was based the indictment last | summer of several Automobile Squad policemen. The indictments have since been dismissed. Werner is a former employee of the Department | of Water Supply, Gas and Electricity. Werner's apprehension grew out of the arrest yesterday afternoon in front of No. 81 Lenox Avenue of seventeen-year-old William Voorhis of Hackensack, N. J. Young Voorhis was driving away in Max Goldstein's Ford sedan when Detective James Brannigan arrested him. Voorhis said he had stolen twelve sedans in the past month and sold them to Werner for $50 cach. Ac- cording to his story, he met Werner in @ Bronx billiard room and Werner offered to give him $50 for every Ford sedan he brought in, The detectives who arrested Werner say they found in the garage three cars which were stolen yesterday | afternoon, forty other ears, many of | which showed changes of engine numbers, and three loaded revolvers in Werner's desk Detectives Armstrong and McCad- den recalled that about a year and a half ago they arrested two boys who were riding in a stolen Ford sedan, One of the boys suid he was taking the car to Long Island City to de- liver {t to a man named Werner, who worked in the Water Department. ‘The detectives found that Werner had left city employment, ——_————___ VOLSTEAD WANTS SPOILS.

DO not remember what the Presi- ] dent of another university said as he delivered the oration to the class of 1920 of ths University of Arizona, I was thinking of my de- voted wife and my mind kept going back to that first night when into the darkness of my ignorant brain there came a different appeal than the women of my old life had made. It was all strange to me then, I was beginning to, understand, I have yet much to learn. The college or uni- versity is not a place where you finish anything—you are just really ready to begin When the President of the univer- sity conferred upon me the degree of bachelor of arts and placed the hood over my cap and gown it seemed to me that SHE ought to be on the platform with me, She rer ly had earned it by the tnspiration of her lif Whatever success { have gained, whatever serv I hope to accom- plish in the future, I am not losing sight of the fact that I owe it to her. That night, with our eight-year-old son, Hugh, we strolled through the university campus. Seating our- selves on a campus bench, Prudence and I talked of college days, of var- sity victories in classroom and on ath- letic field, It was her world and her world was becoming my world, Then I told her again in the pres- ence of our son: “It was your beauti- ful, fine life that made me hate the fighting game. You made me want to learn the things of your world."’ Hughie put his arm around both of us und asked: “Mother, what are you crying for?" Mother knew and father knew that these were not tears of sorrow bu: of joy and I was fighting to keep chem back us she said: “I do trust you, Fred, ways believed in you.’’ It's a long way from rough-house PRESIDENT HIBBEN AGAINST THE BONUS Asks Senators Edge. and Freling- huysen to Vote Against It. | President John Grier Hibben of | Princeton University is strongly op- posed to the soldiers’ bonus and haa to Senators Edge and Fre- New Jersey urging His letter I have al- written linghuysen of that they oppose the bill. says in part: “1 teel constrained to write you a word concerning the Honus Bill now under discussion in Congress, I do not believe that you can be seriously aware of the tremendous volume of opinion against it.

Thank you ever so much for the interview.” I heard afterward that her report the follow- ing day read something like this: “T was very much surprised when TI interviewed the ex-prize fighter who is now at the head of our schools. 1 expected to meet a low-browed, rouzh, uncouth, vulgar pugilist, but really he was a very fluent, cultured, eloquent conversationalist."’ And all I had said was by nodding my head. HARDEST JOB TO MANAGE THE SCHOOLMARMS, ‘The greatest study I had during my first year as Principal was to learn how to talk to the women school- teachers. I saw right away that my education had been sadly neglected. They did not offer a course in woman psychology at the university. After I had been teaching a few weeks I was a strong advocate of the women's magazines and began to study women. I learned that you can't argue with a woman. A man always gets the worst of it. I became so proficient in dodg- ing a feminine argument that if one of the lady teachers had come into the office and wanted to wreck the school building, I would have said: “Miss So and So, I think your sug- gestion is a good one. I really think the building should be torn down, but with your permission may I sugost that we postpone the wrecking tll school is out next June? When I had progressed that far in my education I found that the wheels of the educational machinery ran very smoothly. (To Be Concluded.)

PART 5. LTHOUGH the acquaintance or friendship existing be- tween Princess Mary and Viscount Lascelles hed been begun during the war and there had been occasional meetings there- after in London, it was not until a few months before the King’s an- nouncement of her betrothal that they me* with anything like fre-| quency. It was only then that so- ciety recognized that a royal romance was impending. And society, which dearly loves matchmaking, seemed now most eager to do everything to bring the Princess and the Viscount together. They were invited together to house parties, to join shooting parties and to take part in many of the country entertainments which characterized London life in the ‘season, The Prince of Wales was by no means the last to note the relationship! which had sprung up between Lord Lascelles and his sister. He un- doubtedly helped matters along! enormously by the stories he told her| of the war exploits of “Dom” Las- celles, King George and Queen Mary soon hecame aware of the state of affais und if there had been anything lack- ins in their approval of the budding romance they now supplied it. Last summer they invited Viscount La- fcelles to be one of the royal guests at Balmoral Castle in Scotland. Pria- ects Mary was there, of course, and at once all England recognized the you Englishman as a suitor for the nand of the King's daughter, PUBLIC APPEARANCE AS A SUITOR. After the court returned to Lon- don, Lord Lascelles was seen to be in frequent attendance upon the Princess and later accompanied the royal party ty» Ascot, where they were observed chatting gayly together. When the Princess rode in the Row, Lord La- seelles often cantered beside her, much to the Interest of those on the Uridle path and the pedestrians in Hyde Park. Next came invitations which in- eluded them both to shooting parties Recognition of the Viscount’s Suit First Apparent in Invitation to Be a Guest of the Royal Family for a Visit to Balmoral in Scotland. * # * * which Lord Lascelles took part. Frincess Mary did not shoot, but she never failed to follow the guns, and she and the Queen joined in the al fresco luncheon served to the men in the field. This visit to Sandringham was the most momentous event in the lives of the Princess and the young Eng- lishman, For it was at that time he asked her to be his wife and she ac- cepted him. Qucen Victoria once de- clared that she proposed to Prince Albert because "he would never have Presumed to take stich a liberty as to Propose to the Queen of England.” But did Lord Lascelles, a proved fearless fighting man, one who had led bayonet charges, lack the covrage to ask for the hand of a shy, sensible girl, even though she were a King’s Then His Frequent Rides Park Prepared the British Nation for the Im- portant Announcement by the ES # oe %* Minister, Lloyd George; the Arch- bishop of Canterbury, the Home See- retary, Lord Birkenhead, the Duke of Atholl and Sir Almerte Fitzroy. And that evening the King announced “with the greatest pleasure” the be- trothul of his daughter, Later that evening Lord Lascelles dined with the royal family at Buckingham, Princess Mary, of course, being present, AND EVERYBODY APPROVED HER CHOICE. The entire Eritish Empire was de- lighted with the news, which was flashed to every coruer of it. The very next day came a telegram of y congratulation trom the Prince who was in India, The London newspupers “ere filled with stories of the royal romance, ziving danghter?

THEN, ONE DAY IN SANDRING- HAM WOODS. According to all accounts, it was in the woods of Sandringham that Lora Lascelles asked Princess Mary to marry him, Just what he said and just what she replied, and whether that was all there was to it, is only known to them and the birds In the trees, But, armed with the consent of the Princess, Lord Lascalles went that very evening to the King and formally asked permission to addrese her. What came after this is what the best families always do, Princess Mary was sent for, told of the aspi rations of the young man (just as if never imagined such a thing) ind asked how they appealed to her heart, Princess Mary, according to a mouse under the sofa, blushed be- comingly, said she had loved Lord Lascelles for a long time, desired no happiness greater than to become his! wife and let him kiss her, the mouse dushing off in confusion rom that moment the engagement was accepted by the royal family, but in accordance with constitutional law made the news could not be public until & prescribed formality had been observed, This necessitated calling a meoting of the Privy Council, whieh wa done soon after the yyal fam ) return to Buckingham Palace The Council met in the Palace on the evening of Nov. 22, ‘There were pres ent in addition to the King, the Prime 4 London gave them a whole-!e: ed welcome upon their first pat appearance after the betrothal was during a drive throug Streets of the West End, on last, two days after the roy nouncement. It was Queen Mary who Prompted the excursion in order tisat the city might congratulate the hapyy Pair. She had noticed many perscns gathered along the rai ings of Bue ‘Ingham Palace for a glim of th Princess and had decided they should have the opportunity they desired and see the Viscount at the same time. The Queen and Princess Mary had luncheon with the Viscount that aft noon at Chesterfield House and later went in an open landau through the principal thoroughfares, A single mounted policeman trotting uheud of the royal carriage was the only herald of the excursion, but the crowds were quick to recognize the royal party and lined the eurbs, the greetings visibly affecting the Princess, who blushed from one end of the journey to the other. Perhaps the emburrassing ovation to which he was constantly replying rat- tled the Viscount a little, because al Piccadilly Circus he made an “‘error' instead of an ‘assist.’ Some one ut the edge of the sidewalk tried to throw a bunch of viglets to the Princess us the carriage passed. The Viscount, an old cricketer, made a try for the atch and muffed it, much to Prin- cess Mary's amusement. ‘The Princess und the Viscount ap din public akain the following pe ning to attend 4 benefit: perform- ance at the London Hippodrome, Four boxes, framed in roses and laurel, formed the royal box.

When the royal party approached the Hippodrome the crowd about their cars got beyond police control. There Was such a crush and commotion that the King, after entering the building, delayed the performance to send out a Ho n whether any one had been hurt. The audience gave the royal party rousing welcome, Princess Mary co ing forward to the box rail to blush’ and bow her acknowledgments. She never removed her long white gloves, much to the disappointment of every, one, as there had been a hope of catch- ing a glimpse of the great square emerald engagement ring the N= count had presented to her.
