in this part of the
world" cried Mortimer Hilton, as he
stopped at the entrance of the quaint
little hotel at Barminster, which he
had made his headquarters because
of its quietude, for he could motor
into the busy industrial town of Bour-
ton each morning.
1t was Phyllis Trenton, Phyllis,
who had refused his offers of mar
riage one by one, but who had espe-
cially retained his friendship.
And what are you doing here?'
he asked.
Motoring; simply that and moth
ing more" she said archly.
"Alone?"
mo, indeed! The Antique is with
me-asleep upstairs for the moment.
We arrived at this sylvan retreat this
morning, and l have been sketching,

chauffeur's life out of him almost be-

Miss Grey will not reappear tonight

1t was an hour later. Miss Trenton
had proved right in her prognostica-
ton, and the elderly companion, Miss
Grey, did not materialize for the din
ner, which was very good, although

the Rose Inn at Barminster, was a
particularly quiet little place. The
girl had changed into a delicate gray
costume, and as she faced Hilton he
thought she looked more divinely
beautiful than ever.

He gave a deep sigh as the girl
turned languidly in her chair to gaze
out at the twilight garden.

"I see" said Phyllis, witt an ador-

politics."

say whatever you like to me. / don't
mind so long as you do, talk to me-"
Phyllis rose from the chair and
came round the table to lay her hand
on Hilton's arm.
Don't say things like that" she
said, almost tenderly. mo, you need
not get up"

URGES BUREAU TO
ADVISE VOCATION
Prof. Weaver Would Select
Professions for Boys
and Girls.

That bureau for advising boys
and girls in the choice of a profess
sion is a necessity was the subject of
an address delivered before the Prin-
cipals' Association by Professor e.
w. Weaver, of the Boys High School,
of Brooklyn, at a meeting held in
the Free Public Library yesterday.
Many boys endanger their future use
fulness, according to Professor
Weaver, by drifting in their youth
from one profession to another.
Professor Weaver spoke on ''Voca-
tional Education for Boys and Girls. !"
He contended that the poorly
equipped man is the most useless of
beings, and said that the first prob
lem to be solved was determining
what profession the individual was
fitted for. That the advice of
bureau of experts is a necessity in
making this decision was the opinion
of the speaker
Mr.. Weaver, who several months
ago established a school vocational
bureau in Buffalo, n. Y, where boys
and girls receive counsel in selecting
a business career, told of the eff
cheney of this experimental depart
ment. He also suggested that
branches of these bureaus be estab-
lished in the churches where the
ministers, Sunday school teachers
and others interested in the welfare
of the boys and girls could advise
them and take an active interest in
their business undertakings.

EGGS IN ORANGE
LESS EXPENSIVE
Price Suddenly Drops, but
Dealers Deny 1t Is Influenced
by Housewives League.

There was general denial by gro
GERS of the Oranges today that the
sale of $4,000 dozens of No. / cold
dozen by the Housewives League had
in any way affected their egg trade.
One grocer admitted that there was
no reason why eggs should ever sell
for none than twenty-five cents per
dozen, that they are not worth more,
but that the cold storage trust is re-
sponsible for higher prices. He said
that all eggs selling today for forty
five cents are really the same eggs
that the Housewives League can sell
for thirty three, but no grocers could
afford to sell them at that price and
make profit.
Another grocer whose price dropped
three cents in three hours, after the
league opened their store on Main
street, Orange, declared that the drop
in his price was only because of a
sudden change in the market price
1t seems to be the general opinion of
the grocers that some kind dealer was
supplying the league with eggs. as
their prices for No. ! cold storage
eggs run from thirty-seven cents all
the way to fifty cents per dozen
They sell o thirty-on cent egg with
a guarantee, but admitted it was not
a No. 1 storage egg. All the stores on
Main street today, however, are sell
ing eggs at twenty eight, thirty-one
and thirty-t three cents, with a guar.
antee to replace any found unsatisfac
tory, but they refused to say the eggs
were of the No. l quality.
The Housewives League of Orange
had a brisk trade this morning and
expect to sell a shipment of sixty
crates before evening.

MRS. WEIGH TO
FIGHT FOR CHILD
Vice-ChancelIor Stevens Sets
Dec. 5 as Date for Hear
ing in Action.

Nfce-Chancellor Stevens, today set
December as the date for 6. hearing
In the case being brought by Mrs.
Virginia Lee WEIGH, who is now
living in the Philippine Islands,
against her divorced husband, Henry
cambridge Baker, of Elizabeth, for
the custody of their thirteen-year-old
son Martyr. Mrs. Welch obtained a
divorce from Baker two years ago
on the ground of desertion and subse-
quently went to the Philippine
Islands, where she married her pres
emit husband. who is a secretary in
one of the governmental departments
there.
Mrs. WEIGH returned about a year
ago to see the boy After taking him
to the Waldorf Astoria, in New York,
4 she telephoned for the reporters and
gave out story in which she
claimed she was being deprived of
the privilege of seeing the child. The
story caused quite a sensation at the
time. Recently she returned from the
Philippines and again attempted to
see the boy, who Is at present in a
private school In Pennsylvania.
Ralph e. Lum, who represents the
mother, asked that she be permitted
to see the child. This was opposed
by William NJ. Day. counsel for
Baker.
The court ruled, however, that there
was no good reason why the mother
should not be permitted to see the
boy, especially in the presence of a
teacher, and issued an order to that
effect
In setting the date for the hearing
the Vice-Chancellor explained to the
respective counsels that the case
would be conducted on the principle
that the father is the proper GUS
todian of a child of such age unless
he is proven unworthy or inca
pable of taking care of him. 1t should
be borne in mind, however, he added,
that both parents shall have access
to the child
