(Tu Be Continued! and show that you are human A (food many teacjrers young ones especially are likely to feel that mothers are pretty critical A hand-shake and a few pleasant words of appreciation will lift 1 a discouraged girl out of the dumps more than anything else on earth Or ask her if she can spare the time and is socially inclined to come to see you and have a cup of tea Some teachers are too busy ethers have their off-time pretty well filled so I insist but the invitation hurt anybody And let me scare you altogether out of visiting the school True too many visits from too many people are a bit disorganizing to routine work for a visitor distracts attention but a well-timed short call after the first month or so is in order I think MAIL ORDER LOVE A LITTLE common sense would prevent so many tragedies The five murders which Harry Powers of Clarksburg Va committed have taken place if two women had refused to let his flattering phrases play upon their vanity They might have known that advertisements inserted in matrimonial papers aren't based on a certain man's reaction to a certain woman They are founded on a wholesale interest in any daughter of Eve who is curious enough to send her name and address and volunteer for a correspondence course in courtship But somehow or other there is a woman now and then wlio has an idea that she Is really the woman of his imagination for which the man who advertises is searching Maybe he doesn't know it she argues And he certainly won't unless she tells him about it When an answer comes she cant base the sudden flair of his Interest on the light in her eyes or the smoothness of the complexion that he has never seen When she finally meets the man and the romance takes a personal turn the fact that its foundation has been built on shifting sand doesn't give it much room on which to stand Powers who preyed upon a foolish sentimentalism which some women have in order to obtain their property and bank accounts is a dastardly coward of course Bui it is hard to realize just what charming words the erstwhile Don Juan must have written in order to make women believe that he was a pearl of great twice There have been pitiful stories told of women who have been afraid that their communities would think that they were unsought because they hadn't married and who plucked a Beau Brummcl from any tree But the two women whom Powers confessed that ho murdered weren't the only two who were gullible Scores of letters from others are pouring into the Clarksburg postoffice in which others admit that they too received long distance thrills from the matrimonial advertisements tin slayer Now and then someone criticizes the ypungcr generation Heads arc shaken because the girls of today are supposed to have considerable mere knowledge of life than their grandmothers had at the same age But it is fairly safe to wager that a far smaller percentage of the worldly-wise group will ever chase a thrill through an advertising agency I 0 A Cl Pi 81 St Ei St VY Vi in 1-1 38 10 is to bj a i S3 In in 1 of da to i tli tu dk Gi 4 (if 1 Li -to MUTINEERS TO DRAW STIFF PENALTIES CHAPTER IX Chris Saunders went down on both knees beside the other girl She put a hand on Norma's shoulder me about it she begged "You cry Tell me what's nonresponse from the blond head face was hidden Her shoulders continued to rise and fall with great shaking sobs voice was sharply anxious "Norma got to tell The blond head raised for an instant uncertainly Then it drooped again From among the pillows came in muffled tones about' what about him? he For an instant the room was tensely silent At last Norma found her voice She said weakly in tones that wavered unsteadily oh Chris! asked me to marry Chris Saunders straightened back Blank amazement wag written across her face you to marry she repeated incredulously The huddled figure on the davenport nodded face was concealed again but she went on in choking syllables asked to marry him tonight and I I love him! love him The older expression did not change For a long moment she eyed her roommate Slowly then Chris got to her feet and made a place for herself among the cushions beside Norma She drew one arm about the other girl I Chris began gently never seen this Mark of yours and I know anything about him but if he WE parents are awfully funny about some thiiigs and one of the queerest things we do is the way we send our children through eight years of grade school without so much as knowing what one of the 16 or so teachers looks like A boy or girl goes to school five days a week for nine or ten months in he year yet in all that time we find ourselves too to go and have a look at the class-room where he spends most of his wrak-ing day or to say to the person who is giving her entire time to making something out of him and his fellow-pupils Ways of Making Contact Oh nof I think that any teacher wants to hold a reception every day or to have whole row of mothers obscuring the blackboard and distracting the class from its lessons that would be a visitation rather than a visit But there are simple and gracious ways of making contact that the teacher would appreciate and that certainly would delight the hearts of Sally or Dick or Joe Go around in the car and ask to take her home some night when tired out and the corner wrait cn the street-car with five pounds cf papers under her arm looks like the siege of Yorktown Or just stop in at dismissal tine NEVER TOO LATE JACKSONVILLE Fla Sept You might not be able to teach an old dog new tricks according to the adage but Bet Gurgan-us 75 thinks not too old to learn been going two miles to school for the past two years in an effort to learn to read and write She can do both now disproving the old saying about old horses gnd new tricks Gradually the torrent subsided Norma sat up and Chris supplied the handkerchief with which to dry her eyes The lovely face was swollen and tear-marked With a determined effort Norma managed to control her voice "Oh sift whispered do love him so! I I didn't have any idea it was going to end this way going to be so hal'd to let him go! understand if ever been in If ever been in love! The words struck on Chris Saunders' ears with curious Impact you care for him so much not going to give him Chris declared firmly I must! I couldn't marry him without The older girt stopped her at me Norma she said crisply don't know anything about this man you think in love with All right then this man sure is the right one for you You haven't known him very long yourself have you? Less than two weeks That's a pretty short time in which to decide something that's going to affect your whole life but I'm not going to try to Influence you one way or another one thing I do know though and got to listen to me! Norma there a man living who's too good -for you Not "But Chris how could I tell anything you need to Chris went on emphatically happened is over The only way to erase well things that should never have happened is to forget about them And you forget if going to persecute Norma's two hands clasped the edge of the davenport Her blue eyes searched the other girl's hungrily you really believe she whispered "With all my heart and soul! Everyone's made mistakes Norma You and me and everyone else It isn't what's behind but what's ahead that if I could only believe There was wistful pathos in the younger voice Suddenly she caught hand such a Norma went on always been such a The dark haired girl shrugged more than anyone she said brusquely Then her mood softened serious she added much do you know about this boy? You said he works for a real estate firm but he come from? Do you think you could live on his Norma lpaned her head back against a pillow She was smiling dreamily know all that I want to she said softly know that I love him and that he loves me What else Is there that She was looking across the room at a cheap framed reproduction of a Corot landscape but the girl was not really aware of the picture Chris eyed -her for a moment Presently she arose and dis-anpeared Into the alcove When she reappeared she wore pajamas and a lounging robe "Listen Chris cautlon-1 said I try to influence you in this thing and not going to But you think you should take a little time before making up your mean about getting Chris nodded what I was going to she continued going to embark on matrimony I'd certainly like to have a hand in it but you will! bs maid of My specialty always a bride's maid!

Of course I will told him a lot about you Chris He's anxious to know you Oh find out that wonderful There was a paean of excited tribute then to which Chris listened calmly Soon doubts and misgivings returned For the next 24 hours her moods were to vary from despair to ec-stacy Chris argued and coaxed Neither girl put into actual words the thing of which each was thinking It was late before they finally put out the light and went to bed Even after that their voices continued long in the darkness The next day dragged Norma at her typewriter in the offices of Brooks Welliver and Brooks counselors at law thought the lunch hour would never come She was not meeting Travers He had explained the night before that there was an engagement from which ho could simply not escape She was to see him at 5:30 though They planned to go to an inconspicuous restaurant for dinner a place where there was an' alcove table of significant memories Norma had said she -would give him her answer there As It turned out she did not make SANTIAGO Chile Sept (IP) The Chilean government will deal sternly wifh mutineers who seized control of the battle fleet last week the minister of war told the United Press today the mutiny broke out the ring leaders were requested to lay down their arms for the good of the he said refused and now they must suffer the penalties that they It w'as reported without confirmation that the government would demand the execution cf seveial leaders of the mifiny including some communists Two members of the rebel committee' were said to have committed suicide as the fleet approached port to surrender Censorship was lifted throughout the country EFORE giving advice to aged as to the conduct of their lives it may be well to recognize somewhat their economic conditions It is estimated by Dublin statistician of a famous life insurance company that one and one-quarter million persons in the United States who have reached the age of 65 are in want and are supported by charity public and private This means that 28 per cent or more than one out of every four are dependent It has long been known that retirement not infrequently has hastened the death of the aged A successful business man when relieved of the usual life and caused to resort to idle luxury tends to degenerate rapidly Every trifling ailment begins to receive his undivided attention The mental attitude is important Sir Humphrey Rolleston says that well-occupied mind a happy disposition that thlnketh no evil naturally smiles instead of frowning on a stranger or a new idea free from anger hatred and jealousy the vice that gives ho pleasure to any one and an attitude of charity in its original and best sense to all tend to prolong life and make it a happy healthy prelude to crossing the bar" Thus cne may point out that dignitaries of the church chief justices cn supreme court benches prime ministers and those of similar professions whose activities are prolonged tend to live longer than others Apparently the most Important advice for attaining and prolonging old age has to do with the diet A half-dozen proverbs attest the manner in which men have accepted this fact dig your grave with your does not die he kills himself" and best of all the double-edged statement of the Ho osier farmer: would live a lot longer if they didn't make hogs of An investigation made by one life insurance company revealed that 13 per cent of some thousands of policyholders beyond the age of 40 were more than 20 per cent OFF FDR I Si!
