Almost everyone who has head the
magazines and newspapers in the last
or so has wished to travel to many
points and learn first-hand what the
leaders in cooperation are doing. OF
course, this has been an impossibility
and even IL one could make it possible,
there would be no time left for con
structive work at home. To certain
extent the County Life Conference"
In Louisville, April z, s, 8, 10, will
make this a possibility without exten.
sive travelling.
Leaders in cooperative movements
from many parts of the South and
from innumerable Northern States
have been engaged to tell Just what
they have accomplished and how h
was accomplished They are to tell
their cups" as we'll as their downs"
in the cause of cooperation. They
will also be on hand to show exactly
how the work which has been a sue.
cess at home can be transplanted to
other neighborhoods. They will bring
with them not only the story, but also
all of the material that is used in their
perfected organization to-day that II
may run smoothly.
Enough enthusiasm is sure to be de-
veloped to make orga nizations among
those present certainty. This will
be done by these men in the most de-
tailed way possible. The leaders who
come to the Conference should be able
to take the good word home in such
shape that 1t can be redeveloped and
take root.
II you should wish to better your
own condition, or the condition Of
your state, or the condition Of the
whole South, II would be we'll worth
your time and money to come to Louis
vile at this time.
Even II you are not at all anxious
TO hear any one Of the speakers or see
any OF the demonstrations, still 1t
would be a delight to be In a crowd
Of people who are enthusiastic enough
and devoted enough to come and rub
elbows with other leaders. After all,
there is nothing much better in life
than the glow which comes to all Of
us when we come in contact with Tive
wires" from scattered places over the
whole country.
If you are a leader or feel that you
might be a leader or hope to be a
leader, make your plans at once and
get the dust off your grip sack that
you may be ready to be with the splen-
did bunch that will talk things over
so tat the South may grow in pros
perity, in farm life, in home life and in

SHORT SENTENCES FOR HIM
Writer Gives Good Advice to His Eel

Words.

Writers who wish to impart to their
productions power and pungency, who
wish to keep the readers attention
upon the tiptoe of activity, who desire
to escape the imputation of pedantry
and who seek TO surcharge their senti-
ments with sparkle and spirit will do
well to bear in mind constantly that
long, lingering sentences, unduly over
burdened with an abundance of
phrases, clauses and parenthetical OBJ
Servations of more or less aggressive
character, are apt to be tiresome to
the reader, especially if the subject
matter be at all profound or ponder

- got the window catch open with

over the whole room that night and
again on another highland found
nothing. l did discover little strong
box in the top drawer Of the dresser.
1t lay wide open. 1t had curious
lock. In that, I was sure, he would
put the jewels If he ever wanted to
move them. There was no sign of the

that Captain Hanska might be carry

be very sound sleeper-he had boast
ed to me of that, and he proved it by
sleeping through a fire at his hotel
when he was in Port of Spain. So
did dangerous thing. Without speak
ing to Juan, I went down the fire es-
cape at two o'clock in the morning of
a night when Captain Hanska was at
home, and looked through his pockets.
even examined all the papers in his
wallet by the light of the electric
torch. But it was not there. Juan,
when I told him, was angry with me
for taking such risk. He made me
promise never to enter the room
again unless Captain Hanska was
away.
And then we found that we must
act quickly, or lose our property for
ever. Juan was watching Captain
Hanska, following his movements
very closely. That day-the day and
night when everything happened-the
captain visited a jeweler in Maiden
LANE think you call it. He stayed
long time. From there he went to
safe deposit bank. When he came out
he had a package in his pocket-Juan
could see his coat bulge. Juan was
afraid that he would go straight back
10 the jeweler and make the sale; and
then our last hope would have been
gone. Instead, Captain Hanska went
TO a cafe and sat alone a long time
drinking. When he left that place, he
returned to Mrs. Moore's. And the
shape of his pocket showed that he
still carried the package.
1T was plain to us that the package
contained the jewels, and that he in
tended to dispose of them at once
probably the next morning. That night
the Jewels would be in his room-and
It was our last chance. Juan came to

Juan to do the work himself | am a
