NED SQUARES ACCOUNTS The Flowertons returned from their honeymoon in a glow of joy and excitement The former Ferrol cottage, looking wonderfully spick and span in new paint and enamel, stood ready for their occupancy. A procession of furniture vans and delivery wagons left loads which had to be uncrated, moved and arranged. As the cozy little house became, an exceptionally seductive home there followed a series of housewarmlngs, jolly informal parties and "showers" of presents. The Flowertons put an end to the holidaying as soon as they could without hurting the feelings of their many friends. "We've work to do," they explained in declining invitations to play. For they had rented a pretty shop in the Thirties, just off Fifth avenue, for Ruth's "costume studio." Again there was furnishing to be chosen and bought. Interior decorators to be dealt with, fabrics and a library on costumes to be selected. John Ferrol. who had done both his own and Ned's work for weeks, insisted that Ned stay away from the office until he had thoroughly established his home and Ruth's shop. "We get along pretty well without you," he said jocularly. "Business has pioked up marvelously since you have been away. You're busy at your nest building. Go to it and do it up brown. I'll hold the fort." John Ferrol's looks belied his jocularityThe strain of doing two men's work in a rapidly growing business had been great He looked worn and tired. But Ned let him keep at his double Job for a few days longer. Ills office work would take every bit of his energy and time once It was under way, and he could not tear himself away as yet from the pleasant and necessary business of launching Ruth in the career he had promised her. Edith, uneasy about her husband's obviously -worn condition, felt a sense of reproach at Ned's preoccupation in his own affairs at the expense of John's strength. Several times she was on the point of speaking to her brother, but when she saw the radiant happiness of the Flowertons and their tremendous absorption in their new life she could not find the heart to reproach him. Then one afternoon Ned said to her: "Isn't Saturday the fifteenth anniversary of your marriage, Ede the wooden or tin or ivory or something wedding? Aren't you giving a party of some sort?" "Well, Ned, we were going to have you and Ruth to dinner at our house," Edith said slowly. "John's too tired to be officiating at parties." The hint seemed to escape Ned. "All right, then. It'll be the family, only, eh? All the better." There was a shade of mystery in his manner as he said this which puzzled Edith. But she could make nothing of its meaning nor of Ned's failure to relieve her husband of his double burden of work at the first possible moment. She was still more puzzled when neither Ned nor Ruth brought the least token of the day with them on the night of their anniversary dinner. It was an attention which would not have escaped the dullest conscience and it distressed Edith. Was Ned becoming so engrossed in his personal happiness that he no longer had eyes for any one else's? It almost spoiled her evening for her. Then, when dessert was served. Ned rose from his chair. "Edith," he said, turning to the Ferrols. "and you, John; you don't know how I have looked forward to this moment. When a man has been borrowing of his nearest and dearest kin money and time and faith and sacrifice and labor and devotion as I have borrowed of you two; when these have been loaned him with the readiness and love with which you two have given them, you don't know how that man looks forward to the day of payment." The Ferrols looked at each other, then at Ned. "Why, we've gotten" back a hundredfold, a thousandfold, for what we have laid out for you, Ned," John Eaid. "No, John, you've earned that with your own labor." Ned said earnestly. The Women's Aid society of Second Presbyterian church will meet tomorrow afternoon with Mrs. J. B. Howes at her home on North Twenty-first street. A full attendance is desired. Miss Irene Steen who has been a Red Cross nurse at Ft. Oglethorpe, Ga., for six months, has arrived here after being mustered out of service. The N. N. C. club held its regular meeting Monday evening with Miss Helen Cook. The evening was spent informally "and a dainty luncheon was served. The next meeting will be in two weeks with Miss Daub on South Seventh street. Officers of Ben Hur lodge will be installed Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock in the lodge roms. Following the installation a dance will be given and luncheon served. Members and friends an? invited.

The evening was spent in games and dancing. Miss Fannie Horrell gave several readings. The Earlham Heights Dorcas society will meet tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 o'clock with Mrs. Aaron Wagoman at her home on National road west - Rich Milk, Malted Grain Extract in Powder OTHERS IMITATIONS
"But my own personal payment to you two has not been made, John. Edith, I ask the privilege of presenting you with a second honeymoon. Ruth and I have had one, and we owe it all to you. Now, won't you let us give you a honeymoon in return? The children will stay with us and you are to start at once and travel anywhere you please as our guests and stay as long as you like. Do say you will?" he pleaded. "Edith, John, please say yes," Ruth joined in entreaty. The Ferrols seemed unable to speak with emotion. Edith ran to her brother and, clasping her arms about him put her wet cheeks to his. ' "Little brother, little brother," she murmured. "Here's your receipt for payment in full of everything you think you owed us," he said, kissing Ruth. (To be continued.)

SEVERAL KILLED IN STRIKE RIOT . IN ARGENTINA (By Associated Press) BUENOS AIRES, Jan. 8. Several persons were killed and more than a score wounded during a fight between police and strikers at the Vanena Iron Works on the outskirts of this city this afternoon. Police and firemen, reinforced by a large number of patrolmen, formed a line of defense against strikers who were attempting to attack laborers who had replaced them in the foundry of the iron works. The police were hampered by their inability to get reinforcements to the scene without more serious fighting, the strikers having closed all but one street and having cut telephone lines. Those killed or injured lay in the streets for many hours because of the inability of ambulances to get through. It is expected that a general 6trike of harbor workers will be declared tomorrow, because of the refusal of 6hip owners to meet the demands made by the men three weeks ago. The prefect of the port assembled troops tonight to prevent disorder in case a strike is called. - Shortly before midnight tonight the police had reported five deaths and thirty wounded in the fighting during the afternoon. There were at least three deaths of innocent persons who had no connection with the battle. One of these was a fifteen year old boy who was sitting on a doorstep. A woman standing at a window eight squares from the scene of the, fighting was wounded. Firing was intermittent for three hours, the police say, and at one time there was a steady fusillade for forty-five minutes. It is reported that, in addition to the threatened strike in the harbor, there is a probability of a general strike by all trades unions in the near future. Various industries, including the packing houses, are said to have refused to meet the demamds-of the workmen.

LABOR PARTY TO FORM OPPOSITION
(By Associated Press) LONDON, Tuesday. Jan. 7. The claim of the labor party to be regarded as the official opposition pary of the house of commons and the success of William Adamson. the party's leader in the elections carries an important implication that the labor party considers itself as being able to form an alternative government It is a tradition of parliament that in the event of a defeat to the government in the commons the sovereign will call the leader of the opposition to form a new cabinet The situation is interesting because the labor party's action virtually succeeds the Asquith party, which has hitherto been regarded as the official opposition. Much will depend on the decision of the speaker of commons whether the lahorites are granted all the privileges, including occupation of the opposition whip's room and precedence in debate, according to the official opposition. It is generally believed that some compromise will be arranged which will combine Mr. Asquith's adherents and the laborites as the opposition.
