SMITH HOPES TO ANNEX OHIO, INDIANA VOTES Lines Up Northwest as Hoover Centers Drive on Mid-West. BY RAY TUCKER WASHINGTON, July 19.—While A1 Smith is devoting personl efforts to insuring a victory in northeastern States, Herbert Hoover has taken in hand the task of keeping the three gret States of the middle westk—lllinois, Indiana and Ohio —in the Republican column. Smith is making a play for the 100 electoral votes of the Atlantic seaboard, even'Tais choice of John J. Raskob as national chairman being a gesture in that direction. Asa wet, Catholic and industrial giant, Raskob ought to help Smith’s stock throughout the east. Meanwhile, Hoover is determined to corral the sixty-six electoral of the central States, though two primaries £nd farm discontent developed antagonism toward him

here. Run One-Man Shows Both candidtes are running a oneman show in their desperate attempt to parcel out these sections beforehand. With the 100 electoral votes of the northeast and the 114 of the supposedly solid south, Smith sees victory in sight. With the Mississippi Valley’s sixty-six electoral votes and normal G. O. P. triumphs in the west, Hoover hopes to have a distinct advantage. But the Smith people are known to be counting on defeating the Republicans in at least one of the central States. They bank on the scars left from the Ohio and Indiana primaries, together with the farmers’ dissatisfaction, to carry them through. With less certainty the Republicans hope to confine Smith’s eastern victories to New ork. The winning of the West for Hoover has already started, but it will take definite form Sunday, when Hoover will confer with Vice President Dawes. Hoover has been informed that Dawes will work for the ticket, but the visit may be designed to soften Frank, O. Lowden who has sulked on his farm since the convention. Fear Smith in Chicago It is no secret that the G. O. P. fears a tremendous Smith vote in Chicago, which may overbalance the normal Republican majority outside Cook county. Lowden and Mayor Thompson, if they are so inclined, can prevent such an unsatisfactory result in November. Indiana and Ohio, where the primary fights engenedered great bitterness in the Republican household, are shaping up well. All the big leaders in the Hoosier State have pledged fealty to Hoover, including Senator Watson, State hairman Elza Rogers and Harry Leslie, candidate for Governor, claims Smith’s wetness will work to his disadvantage in this dry state. GIRL DIRECTS CRIMINAL BUREAU OF CALIFORNIA Keens Close on Movements of Gunman When Chief Is Away. By United Press SACRAMENTO, July l.\—Hunting down desperate criminals, gumshoeing from the minute they enter the borders of a California until they leave, and supervising a clearing house for all inside information on crooks is the job of pretty 23-vear-old Rachel Sowers, acting chief of the California State bureau of criminal identification and investigation. Clarence S. Morrill, her chief, was attending the Democratic national convention at Houston sleuthing for bunco men and pick-pockets and the job fell into dainty, but dangerous hands of Miss Sowers.

THIS HAS HAPPENED BERTIE LOU WARD marries ROD Brier, who had previously been engaged to LILA MARSH. They spend an ideal honeymoon and the only hhadow on the bride’s happiness is Lila’s persistency in broadcasting; to their friends that she was Rod’s first love. A splendid position is offered Rod by TOM FRASER of New York and Rod accepts. Anxious to make a good impression, they go to an expensive hotel until they can find an apartment. This seems to antagonize MOLLY FRASER, who urges Bertie Lou to buy more than she can afford. Rod wins some money from Tom at poker and feeling under obligation to them, he recklessly Invites the crowd to a night club. Lila arrives to visit Molly, who includes her in the Sarty and seems to enjoy Bertie Lou’s iscomfiture. Bertie Lou upbraids Rod for the extravagance, and they have their first quarrel. Straned relations continue until they receive money from home for their old furniture, and then they are busy moving into and furnishing the new apartment. Lila surprises them by announcing her engagement to a rich MR. LOREE, and she asks Bertie Lou to forget the things she has done to her and be friends. They go shopping for the trousseau which, Lila informs her, is being paid for by Mr. Loree. NOW GO ON WIT HTHE STORY

CHAPTER XIX BERTIE LOU awoke one winter morning with a headache. It was not unusual for her these days to open her eyes when the alarm clock sounded its dreaded call and close them quickly on a flash of pain. She was very tired. Rod had offered to go out for a cup of coffee at a restaurant, but Bertie Lou was sticking to her bargain. She had said, when they moved into an apartment with higher rent than they could afford, that she would be very thrifty. Time and again Rod had urged her to have a cleaning woman come in at least once a week and scrub for her. But that would be $4 and the woman’s carfare and lunch. And $4 would buy tea for Lila and Molly. Bertie Lou grimaced with pain as she lifted her head from the pillow. Rod was still asleep. She left the bed quietly and stole into the bathroom for an icy shower. She seldom had this chance before breakfast as the usual order of their little household was for Rod to jump hurriedly into his slippers and dash for the bathroom while Bertie Lou dived into a morning dress and contented herself with a face bath. Os late Rod had overslept a few times, and Bertie Lou had got a moment under the shower before she called him. It helped her head a little, and dispelled her lassitude, at least for a while. But the morning’s housework brought it back. And by afternoon, when she went to a matinee, or tea, or bridge, she was often almost faint with fatigue. She’d have been horrified, though, if any one had told her that she needed more nourishing food. Rest, she recognized, would have been a blessing, but she was satisfied to go from an orange at breakfast time until dinner on the refreshments that were served at the social affairs she attended. And, more often than not, her dinner was too frugal to be properly nourishing. For Rod and Bertie Lou had come to a queer pass. Living in a nice apartment, charmingly furnished, and hob-nobbing with wealthy people, nevertheless they were starved. Bertie Lou was cutting and cutting on her household expenses. Drudging and slaving. Pressing Rod's clothes, washing all but the heaviest pieces of laundry, mending, cleaning and repairing until she actually despised the sight of her sewing basket. Rod said it was insane. Bertie Lou said she didn’t see what else they could do. Surely Tom would give him an increase in salary soon. He ought to be able to see how badly they needed it. “But he doesn’t see,” Rod argued. “You always look like a million dollars, Bertie Lou. I can’t go to him and ask for more money when you give him the impression of having spent my entire salary on j clothes. | “And don’t forget that we throw | hirtV and Molly a swell dinner here ! now and then which makes my I salary seem like a sweet sufficiency ;to him. You’ve sure turned out to \ be a good cook, honey, when there's ! anything to cook,” he added with a wry smile. And Bertie Lou had replied that J they must keep on. It would be a i waste of all their sacrifices to give I up now and admit that they couldn't I make the grade. “What grade?” Rod had wanted to know. Then Bertie Lou would go over it again, patiently and hopelessly. Some day something would come from associating with the right people, she declared. Ar(V anyhow, he knew she couldn’t cut away from Molly and Lila. Hadn’t she tried hard enough when Lila and Cyrus came back from Florida? She’d refused and refused. But Lila had so much money to spend, it was a joke to her when Bertie Lou even thought of trying to repay the hospitality she insisted upon extending to her friend. For Bertie Lou and Lila were friends. So Bertie Lou occasionally gave luncheons and bridge parties in her own small home, and worked doggedly for two or three days in advance to prepare dainties and make favors that could not be sneered at. Not that Lila, or even Molly, was sneering. But Bertie Lou was of an

independent nature. She must give if she received. Her entertaining was always successful. She was popular with the people Lila introduced her to, the set Lila had fallen in with after her marriage to Cyrus Loree. It amused and delighted them to go to Bertie Lou’s apartment once in a while just to show her that they would even condescend to go to that length to have her come to them. They were not unpleasantly patronizing. Bertie Lou had no cause to complain of their attitude toward her. What Rod deplored most was the night parties. He lost sleep. And spent too much money. No more wild flourishes in such places as the Arabesque, naturally, but poker parties in which he netiher lost nor won much, as he was able to prove to Bertie Lou after a few sittings, and bridge. The real parties he tried to sidestep entirely, but he found it as difficult as .Bertie Lou did to refuse Lila or 'Molly. They could keep away from affairs that the other people gave at night, and they did, because Rod flatly refused to obligate himself. But it was different with the Lorees and the Frasers who appeared to consider themselves more than repaid for the entertainment they offered Rod and Bertie Lou when they were invited to dine with them. For Molly was so unfortunate as to possess a very mediocree cook, while Lila was openly frank in her enjoyment of Bertie Lou’s exquisite dishes as a welcome change from the culinary excellence of her own French chef. Bertie Lou forced herself to the utmost of her skill and strength on these occasions. She took pride in the compliments of her guests. On the hand, Rod was not so smilingly courageous, nor hopeful of the ultimate benefits to be derived from living beyond their meai s, of beggaring the present for the sake of the future. He grew dark-browed and quiet. Lines appeared like a network about his eyes. Any one could see that he was deeply worried. Bertie Lou, brushing her hair with a few quick strokes, thought of it, and hesitated to arouse him. If she failed to do so, he would be late. To be behind time at the office made him irritable. He said it showed a fellow was slipping. She didn’t want him to be cross this morning and start the day with a grouch. Lila was having a party tonight, an important affair, to which they were invited. Rod had not wanted to go. But Bertie Lou insisted. Wanted him to of the people Lila had said would be there. Perhaps he could make new contacts. Bertie Lou was beginning to realize that Rod had no future with Tom. After all, Tom’s firm was a small one—nothing to be compared with those immense organizations that take possession of colossal buildings in which to do business. Perhaps Rod would get on faster if he made a change, took a ward.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Bertie Lou was not alone in noting Rod’s worried state and depression. lila, too, observed itr— observed that it was deepening. She guessed, easily enough, what was at the bottom of it. The days of her own limited resources lay not so far back that she had forgotten how painfully annoying it was to feel the money pinch. And Bertie Lou. in an impulsive moment, had confided in her that Rod had borrowed money from his father. She did not volunteer to State that he had been forced to resort to this step to pay off some of their most pressing debts—the account at Staley’s and the lapsed payments on the furniture. But Lila could read between the lines. Not so with Molly. She did not even bother to wonder how Bertie Lou and Rod managed on his salary. Perhaps she. like Tom, assumed the young couple had other resources. Lila, on the other hand, made it a point to draw Bertie Lou cut on the subject at every opportunity. When Rod and Bertie Lou arrived at the Lorees the butler took Rod’s things while Bertie Lou \Vent upstairs to doff her wraps. Instead of entering the drawing room Rod waited for her in the hall. A few guests had already arrived ahead of them and had gone either upstairs or to join Cyrus in the library. Lila did not like to have things served in the drawing room since the night her satlnwood furniture had been freely ringmarked. She was in the drawing room now, seeing if Wilkins had lighted the proper lamps. The door to the hall was closed. Lila did not knodw that Rod was there alone until she came out to run upstairs. For a silent moment she appraised him as he stood leaning dejectedly against the newel post. Then she moved over with a soft, swift tread. Her beaded dress gave forth a faint tinkling sound. Rod locked up. She touched his arm, then rested both her hands on it. “Anything for your thoughts,-’ she said, a veiled infinity of tenderness in her low-pitched voice. (To Be Continued.

CITIES OF 11. S. FAIL TO SUPPLY FROLIC CENTERS | Vast Area Falls Short of Need; Indianapolis Ranks High. BY ROSCOE B. FLEMING WASHINGTON, July 19. The United States is a billion-dollar country in respect to parks. City recreation areas are worth that much, and cost $100,000,000 yearly to keep up, according to a survey made public by the United States Labor Department. But practically every city is deficient in providing places feyr children’s play in congested areas. These areas were built up before people began thinking about play spaces, and now they are so expensive that few cities care to buy and raze building blocks. Small cities Rate Higher The survey shows that 1,680 cities have a total of 250,08 acres of parks within city limits. The biggest cities, generally speaking, are behind the smaller. New York, with 6,000,000 population, has only about 10,000 acres for play. Chicago, with 3,000,000, has only 5,000 acres. But both towns have big areas outside—Chicago the Cook County forest preserve, with 31,000 acres, and New York with the Aestchester County Park of 16,000 acres, costing $37,000.000. The survey points out, however, that these big outside areas do not meet the needs of slum children for daily recreation. Philadelphia Leads Philadelphia has the biggest park ratio of any large city, with 8,000 acres of packs for 2,000,000 people. Minneapolis exceeds all American towns in its park space, one acre out of seven wtihin the city limits being in parks, with a ratio of one acre to every eighty persons. Denver and Dallas are also high up, but each has large areas outside the city. Kansas City, with one acre to 100 persons; Indianapolis, with one acre to 122 persons; Washington with one acre to 126, and Portland, Ore., Dogs More Popular Than Ever
