Moving - If in dream, the girl
did as she was told. Twenty minutes
later there was a knock at the door.
A waiter appeared with a tray and
service table. He found Mrs. Wran-
dali lying back in a chair, attended
by a slender young woman in pink
eider-down dressinggown, who gave
hesitating directions to him. Then he
was dismissed with a handsome tip,
produced by the same young woman.
You are not to return for these
things" she said as he went out.
In silence she ate and drank, her
hostess looking on with gloomy inter
est. It was no shock to Mrs. Wran-
dali to find that the girl, who was no
more than twenty-five or three, pos
sessed unusual beauty. Her great eyes
were blue-the lovely Irish blue-her
skin was fair and smooth. her fea-
lures regular and of the delicate mold

about her small ears and neck. She
was not surprised, I repeat, for she
had never known Challis Wrandall to
show interest in any but the most
attractive of her sex. She found her,

1t was nearly three o'clock when
she brought the car to stop in front
of a small, exclusive hotel not far
from Central park. The street was
dark and the vestibule was but dimly
lighted. No attendant was in sight.
"Slip into this" commanded Mrs.
Wrandall, beginning to divest herself
of her own fur coat. "It will cover

Con-,

The vast majority of women do not desire the burden and responsibility of the franchise, believing in the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States that the franchise is political privilege and duty. not right, and that the duties and privileges given to women in government are, and should be, different from those given to men.
 More can be done for the advancement of the highest interests of the race by the influence of women free and unfet- tered by political ties and obligations.
 Socialism, such as would, destroy in- dividual property rights, personal initi- ative, endeavor, independence and family life, is allied with woman suffrage, and all women socialists would use the ballot.
 The National Suffrage Association does not repudiate socialism or fem inism. It puts upon its platforms, issues among its publications and recommends among its books for read ing, writers and speakers who advocate these doctrines and socialists point out woman suffarge must lead to this logi- cal end.

Good Roads.

Probably one who has not taken automobile trips over roads of Connecti- cut cannot have any idea of how much has been accomplished in the last few years to improve the roads of the state.
 Not all of this work has been done by state money or state and town com bined. eelectmen of towns, have been melted by the building of sections of highway in their towns by state money, to go ahead and improve roads on their own account by reducing grades,
 straightening curves and otherwise improving, what may be called the back roads. Woodbury is one of the old towns of Litchfieldfcounty and at present one can leave the center, and go the north way to Waterbury, by way of Watertown over a state road all the way, or they can go by way of Middle bury or going south can go through Southbury to Newtown, and then on to Bridgeport and be on good road all of the way except for two miles on South bury street, and they can also go south and then southeast through Southford,
 Oxford and Seymour and over the Woodbridge hills to New Haven or down the Naugatuck Valley to Derby, Shelton, Stratford and along the shore,
 either to New Haven or Bridgeport.

SUFFRAGE-PR0 AND CON
Pro-.


 The first of the Connecticut Fairs opens tomorrow at Washington. Among the features will be the booth of the suffragists which will be in the charge of Mrs. A. E. Scranton Taylor, of Nor folk. Miss Madge Potti, of Norfolk, will be there to assist and so will Mrs. Edward Porritt, of Hartford. There will also be helpers from among the members of the Washington Equal Franchise League, of which Mrs. Brins- made is president. Next week the Connecticut Fair at Charter Oak Park, the Goshen Fair and the Salisbury Fair at Lakeville will all be attended by the suffragists with banners and literature.
 Suffragists in Connecticut are still concentrating on the work of persuad- ing the political parties to insert suffrage blanks in their party plat forms. Politicians here are of course not inclined to feel that opposition by the suffragists would be formidable in state where women have no votes. It has occurred however to some of them that the time is not far distant when votes for women will be an actuality even in Connecticut, and the party that has earned the gratitude of the suffragists by espousing their cause will feel the benefit when the women begin to go to the polls.

GEM PROGRAM TODAY

"The Giants-White Sox World Tour, -
in six reels of startling motion picture.
1t was an enthusiastic fan who, when
be heard that the Giants and White
Sox were going to make trip of the
world, decided that he would go along.
He did not have much funds for the
trip, so that his going was not all
pleasure. but he went, and he saw
every game. Sometimes it became
necessary for him to ride the brake
beams, again to st0w-away, and at
stopping places he had to work and
beg. But he stuck TO the teams like
grim death and came home with them.
The movie man who went along and
took pictures of the games played in
almost all countries OF the world, be-
fore crowned heads and beggars, and in
many of the most renowned historical
places on the globe, devoted some of
his attention to the troubles of the fan.
And so the film which will be shown
today is interspersed with some of the
best humor that the screen has ever
shown. The two famous teams we're
filmed in action all around the world,
starting from Cincinnati. They visited
Japan, China, Manila, Austria, India,
Egypt, Naples. Rome, France and
England. They were given an oppor-
tunity to see many places of interest
that are denied to the ordinary tourist,
and the camera man got views of these
places. Many incidental pictures. such
as a hurricane at sea, when the waves
broke repeatedly over the camera man
and nearly swept him away. made the
record of the trip remarkable scenic
story, as we'll as historical, educational
and entertaining in high degree.

BATCHELDER DIS
CUSSES COOPERATION
Hood River, Dec. Ia,


Editor Glacier: The United States
Department Of Agriculture has shown
that in the average apple district about
| so per cent of the fruit raised does not
leave the counties where grown in fresh
commercial form. In some of the east
ern states this percentage runs fom DO
to 45, in the Pacific coast states it ag-
gregates So per cent. On this basis the
1914 crop. which is small for various
reasons, amounting to only 1900 car
loads, here would be Is, 600 carloads,
between 5000, 600 and 10, 900, 600 boxes,
and over 225, 900 tons of apples which
never left the counties in which they
were grown. 1t would be a physical
impossibility for the northwest states
to consume any such quantity of apples
in the fresh state, and probably less
than SO, 600 tons of these apples were
manufactured into y.products, for
want of plants located where they could
handle the raw material.
The northwest, with high priced land
and labor and great distance from mar
kets, is therefore obliged to convert the
surplus apples into by-products in order
to make a market for the trade and to
insure the grower against great loss.
In this way only can the success of the
apple industry be assured.
Because of the fact that the &c"
grade apples have been marketed sue
cessfully in past years of light yield
has held many of the growers to be-
ieve that it would always be possible
to market these apples in boxed form
without seriously interfering with the
sale of fancy and extra fancy apples.
This, unfortunately, is not the case,
and it is only rarely that the G grade
apples can be marketed in the form of
box apples, with profit to the grower
and without seriously competing with
the fancy and extra fancy grades.
The marketing of perisbable prod
uct like boxed apples, is trade in it.
self and should be left in the hands of
men trained in that business, who by
their training and by careful watching
of actual conditions of the markets of
the world from day to day are the only
onesswho can safely say what grades Of
apples and what grades of apples and
what varieties should go into the vsri-
Gus marketing centers. For the grow
ers or inexperienced shippers to at
tempt to handle these problems it will
only result in disaster for themselves
and to all Others concerned.
When the business is so organized
that limited number of reliable mar
keting agencies are handling the fresh
apples and other fruits, all the surplus
fruits are sent to the by-products plant
which are working under a safe bust
ness organization and the growers are
raising their fruits with due regard to
turning out the proper varieties of
fruit, with due regard to economy and
with loyalty to their selling organiza-
tions of both fresh fruits and by-prod-
ucts, then will the fruit industry of the
northwest be on a safe. permanent ba-
sis and not otherwise.
