ugly yellow church of the Protes-
tants down toward the sea!
Carmela took counsel with no
one but Angela. 1t was laid upon
her to do this thing. She must
try every hope for Gracioza's
sake and for Tobalito.
The pious Catholics shud-
dered, however, when it was
known that on Sunday Carmela
with her baby passed the mission
doors with averted head on her
way to worship with the hereto

Pray for her, all of you. She has
had many sorrows. She will find

Faithfully Carmela went each
Sabbath to the church of the
Protestant. But she was not hap

building set SO stiff and square
among the stakes of the town lots
that prophesied a great city to be.
1t was dreary church, although
you did always have seat with
a soft red cushion. There were
no crucifxes nor pictures to help
YOU remember the holy ones, and
nobody bent a knee coming or
going.
Carmela in the strangers pew
held Gracioza close. She gathered
no meaning from the discourse of
the young minister. He was a
scholarly man fresh from the di-
vinity school, and his discourses
were full of subtlety; still, to
Carmela he spoke only words,
words.
A few of the women bowed to
her, looking at her with curiosity.
The minister gave her sometimes
a perfunctory high handshake,
and a sweet icy smile with eyes
that did not see her at all, nor
even notice her little Gracioza.

greeted with tender interest.
Carmela felt outcast from her
own church, and alien here. Yet
what matter, if Gracioza grew
well? God must have made so
much of life unpleasant in order
to serve some good use!
So faithfully Carmela came
each Sunday, trudging long miles
with her baby whom no one OBJ
served. She gave of her drawn
work money to the contribution

the Gospel hymns under her breat

apparition coming so swiftly and

this white car bearing on Christ

MICHIGAN OFF FOR
GAME AT SYRACUSE

Ann Arbor. Mich. Oct. 2S.-Nineteen
players and half dozen coaches, man
ayers and trainers, making up the
Michigan football party. left last night
for Syracuse, where the Wolverines
meet Syracuse university Saturday in
Michigan's first big game of the season.
Despite the poor showing on the earlier
games, there still is unlimited conf
dence in the Michigan camp and the
coaches said before leaving that they
expected a Michigan victory. Some
surprise was occasioned by the an
nouncement that Cornwe1l will play
center Saturday, replacing Boyle, who
has been performing regularly in that
position 1t also is possible that Green
will be on the side lines, as he is in
none too good shape to start hard
game. but the chances are that he will
open the game at right half. giving

Cole and Conklin, guards; Benbrook

BADGER TEAM
IN SNOWSTORM

Practice.

Madison, Wis. Oct. 2s.-The Wiscon-
sin regulars scrimmaged for an hour
against the freshman in a hard snow
storm yesterday and managed to get
some needed experience in the use of
handling wet ball. The lineup of the
team was quite a surprise, Gillett
had been shifted from quarter to half
back and Dean was in his position
handling the team. A few plays with
the tackles carrying the ball were
tried. but they were not success, as
the men were not fast enough on their
feet and seemed unable to find an open
ing. The impression is that the Badg-
ers will score mostly through the
weakness of the Northwestern defense
than through the strength OF their Of

| 1t begins to appear that the Balm
ger Pinchot controversy is an impor-
| tant matter after all from the stand
point of the plain people.
1t is certain that Mr.. Ballinger has
been trying to turn overssome of the
best coal lands in Alaska. now owned
by the government, to private CAPT.
talists, at ten dollars per acre. He
has carried the transaction as far as
ne could under the law, and has urged
congress to enact still further laws
that would make this and all other ST.
milar deals legal, and the titles of the
big land grabbers good.
Clifford Pinchot, chief forester of
of the United States Government, has
opposed the plot as vigorously as he
was able, SO vigorously in fact that
he has been dismissed from the SER
vice and his position given to another.
But it was not in vain, for he sue
ceeded in forcing an Investigation and
while this has been going on, all offer
has been made by certain other par
ties to pay the government fifty cents
per ton royalty for the privilege of
of mining the coal in these Alaskan
lands.
Now, these coal claims are estima-
ted to carry 10000 tons of coal to the
acre, which means that American tax
payers can get $4,000 per acre for
these lands instead of $40, as Mr.. Bal
linger would have it. Moreover, the
total Alaskan coal deposits, already
known, amount tosixteen billion tons
At fifty cents per ton, this would net
to our government-which is our
selves-eight billion dollars, or APP
proXimately eight times our entire
national debt. And it is certain that
only part of Alaska's coal has been
discovered.

two men who seem to have. been most
faithful to the peoples interests, and
to have opposed most effectively this
gigantic steal, have been dismissed

Reflections Of Reuben

A good laugh is worth laughing.
Even grin helps a little.
Running water rarely freezes: also
women rarely have lock-jaw.
You can't get ahead in the world
unless you have one already.
When the office goes out seeking
the man, it generally succeeds in find
ing him.
Don't be- greenhorn by pretending
to understand the women. 1t is all
right though to keep them guessing,
too.
Two and two may make four; and
then again it may not-depending on
how good financier the fellow is who
puts it up to you.
The reason why so few women take
out endowment policies is that it
takes them at least forty years to get
twenty years older.
1t is even worth something some

don't you get a mechanical player at
