Ono casual remark Is likely to carry down to fame Gen. Charles li. Dawu, rice-president under Coolidge who bu celebrated his eighty third birthday, even more than a career filled with useful deeds. His important positions are not likely to make him remembered by future generations so much as bls eiploslre "Hell and Maria’”. This was uttered to a congressional committee anxious to pick flaws in the winning of the first world war. As Dawes went on to point ont, the war was won, and at the time that was the only thing that mattered. His fiery outburst killed the investigation then and there. 0 o

The braxen attempt to place the Dlxiecrats or States Right Democrats on the Indiana ballot has been proved a fraud. The petitions seeking such a preference were made up in Republican headquar ters and fake signatures were attached to the papers. One Notary Public Is supposed to have tiotsrU ed 8.000 signatures in one day and anyone with sense enough to use a pen knows that such a feat a physical impossibility. The case was carried to court, where the judge granted an injunction against pladng the Dlxiecrats on the ballot. The courts decision proves fraud and someone should be prosecuted. The notary is likely guilty of maleficence, bnt why worry about her, when the Big Shots around the state house ordered her to commit crime. o o

Parking Robot: The idea of the mat bine operated by a coin dropped in a slot must have been carried close to its final form by the fellow who thought tsp an automatic self-serv-ice garage for parking automo biles. A working model of the thing has been made and demon strati d in New York. According to the Inventors, the customer drives his car io and stops It over a marked spot He deposits a coin and receives a token which identifies his car. The mechanical age then takes over, moving the car to the proper place on one of several floors When the customer puts his token into another slot, the machine brings his car back to him. It might be mentioned that a consulting engineer who helped work It out has been a designer of rotating theatrical stages, such as provide the fancy effects for musical comedies and moving pic ture extravaganzas. What more can be said? We haven't actually seen the gadget yet. but when we do we'll figure we've really seen everything.

In anemia produced by infeelions, the blood cells may be normal in size and contain normal amounts of hemoglobin, but their number is decreased In some cases, however. Ute cells may be smaller than normal and the hemoglobin also lessened In anemia dur to Injury, the cells are normal in site and color. In both cases, the amount of protein in the blood may lie decreaaed. It Is noticed, in these casta, that the amount of protein substances excreted from the body Is greater than normal.

U bed been a hearty sort of fellow who drank and beat her, tt would have been all nghL But be was rather an intellectual man who kept a large library in the wilds, and who liked to talk metaphysics So she drifted back to Capetown again. The fellow behaved very well and gave her an adequate allowance. He might have given her a divorce, but again he might not for he was a Catholic; but anyway be rather fortunately died of fever, and Rosaieen got a small pension. Then the war started and she drifted onto a boat for South America She didn't Bke South America very much, so she drifted onto another boat and there she met Gordon Cloade and told him all about her sad life. So they got married tn New York and lived happily for a fortnight, and a little later he wae killed by a bomb and she was left a large house, a lot of expensive jewelry, and an immense income."

"It's nice that the story has such a happy ending,” said Lynn. "Yes,” said David Hunter. “Possessing no intellect at all. Rosaieen has always been a lucky girl—which to just aa welL Gordon Cloade was a strong old man. He was etxty-two. He might easily have lived for twenty years. He might have lived even longer. That wouldn't have been much fun for Rosaieen, would it? She was I twenty-four when she married him. She's only twenty-eta now." "She looks even younger," said Lynn. David looked across the table. Rosaieen Cloade was crumbling her bread. She looked like a nervmm child. "Yea," he said thoughtfully. “She doer Complete absence of thought. 1 suppose." "Poor thing," Mid Lyra suddenly. David frowned. "Why the pity?" he said Sharply. “I'll look after R aaleen." ”1 expect you will." He scowled

Edgar P. Schmidt, will preach on the Bible text: Proverbs 22.8.

As they went into the drawing room, Rowley said to her: "You seemed to be getting on quite well with David Hunter. What were you talking about?" "Nothing particular,” said Lynn. o o •

"David, when are we going ba'-k to London? When are we going to America?" Across the breakfast table. David Hunter gave Rosaieen a quick surprised glance. "There's no hurry. Is there ? What's wrong with this place?" He gave a swift appreciative glance round the room where they were breakfasting. Furrowbank was built on the side of a bin and from the windows one had an unbroken panorama of sleepy Eng* liah countryside. On the slope of the lawn thousands of daffodils had been planted. They were nearly over now, but a sheet of golden bloom still remained. Crumbling the toast on her plate, Rosaieen murmured: "You said we'd go to America —soon. As soon as tt eould be managed." "Yes—but actually tt isn't managed so easily. There's priority. Neither yon nor I have any business reasons to put forward. Things are always difficult after a war." He felt faintly Irritated with himself as he spoke. The reasons he advanced, though genuine enough, had the sound at excuses. He wondered if they sounded that way to the girl who sat opposite him. And why was she suddenly so keen to go to America ? Rosaieen murmured: "You said we’d only be here for a short time. You didn't say we were going to > live here."

"What * wrong with Warmaley Vale*-and Furrow bank? Come now?" "Nothing. It’s them—all of them!" •The Ctoades?" “Ths»'j Just what I get a kick out of." said David.

Home Os Concrete Construction In Dea

National home week is being marked In Decatur by the con structlon of two new hornet in a radical departure from methods previously used In this area. The homes, of reinforced concrete. are being built on Porter Vista in the Stratton place addi tion by the Yost construction company, under the supervision of Robert Yost. The project is being sponsored by the Portland cement association in an effort to expand the general use of cement in home building. Work was begun In the middle of May. and completion Is expect ed by the end of Novmeber. The five room bungalow which is farthest along will be occupied by Mr, and Mrs. Robert Yost, and the other home will he for sale. The floors are of reinforced concrete, supported by pre-cßst concrete joists. The Yost home has 36*4 by 28 feet of floor space, to he covered by carpeting and linoleum. The walls will be ten Inches thick when they have been furred, insulated and waterproofed. Double hung steel windows are being used, except for a casement window In the kitchen. Concrete is poured into patented universal plywood forms, which may be used over and over in different combinations. Ap proximately 100 cubic yards of cement will be used. Asbestos lifetime shingles will be used for the roof. A forced air

season for gridiron stories. THERE IS NO TELLING what route a story will take to achieve all round success as a book, a movie, and a radio play. It can start in any one of the three forms then proceed to triumph in each of the others. The story, "Sorry, Wrong Number," Is an example. It originally was a playlet produced on a Columbia Broadcasting Company mystery show Paramount Pictures grabbed It up for a movie starring Barbara Stanwyck and Burt !<ancaster. Random House liked the story and lengthened it into a novel, which It published. No* Bantam Books has released a complete unabridged reprint edition of the novel.
