covery was In itself an encouraging
factor and the decision OF the federal
court exonerating the Reading COM

governing It's relations with it's coal

cheerful tone.

cessions and an irregular close. 81.

sBNTRIEs GUARD ROADS
Arrived at vitry-Le- Francois we set off
to walk to Frlgnicourt and Huron. two
little towns close by, which had been
burned by the Germans. 1t was a hot aft
ernoon and the high road thick with dust
Sentries guarded every turn Of the road
and all our papers and passports had to
be shown to each. Every motorcar that
passed was armored. except some driven
by the Society of Friends" a body of
Quakers who are doing a wonderful work
in these ruined towns and without whose
kindly assistance the poor refugees would
be starving.
A field of wheat was being cut by the
peasants, and we stopped for a moment
to talk with these They were old men
and weatherbeaten women, and they eyed
US suspiciously.
Close to the road was q little wooden
cross where a peaceful civilian had been
killed.
"The Germans7" No, they did not wish
to talk of these monsters" on this ex-
quisite summer day! They wished to for
get all that they had come through! 1t
was good to work among the wheat and
forget the sounds of shot and shell, the
sights of houses burning and inhabitants
fleeing for their lives. Thus spoke the
poor peasants.
Two little girls came wandering along
the dusty road hand in hand. They were
barefooted and very brown. All, yes,
they knew the Germans!

German shell, and such tangled masses
as sewing machines, babies perambula-

The village of Huron was in much the

such devastation on day when the sun
light streamed over the quiet countryside
and there was no sound except the voices
of the reapers working in the fields

WOMAN HEADS NEW DEPARTMENT
OF BANK TO HELP INVESTORS
Miss Mary H. Ingham Assists Widows to Buy Safe Sc
urities and Prevents Robberies Through Worth
less Stock and "Groundess Farms

Greens IL they follow my advice" she
said today. II am just trying to help
women who have been left small legacies
to keep shy of the men who possess a
magnetic flow of speech and whose bro
kerage offices, as rule. are located in
the interior of their straw or derby
hats"
Miss Ingham is the third woman to be
selected by the firm to conduct its wom-
ems department. The other women are
Miss Alice Carpenter and Miss Margaret
Stackpole. Both are prominent social
workers Miss Carpenter is stationed in
New iurk and MISS StaCkpole Is in Bos-
ton
Since taking charge, Miss Ingham has
come into contact with many pathetic
cases, those of widows and orphans
whose legacies have dwindled away in
investments. Some of the investments
were in unknown stock, real estate which
was purchased from map and so-called
fruit orchards located thousands of miles
away and barely visible to the naked
eye at distance of 10 feet.
Persons who wish TO increase their
small wealth through frenzied finance are
not welcome in Miss Inghams office.
Neither is she anxious to interest her
callers In stocks whose prices fluctuate
daily. She is visited by women whose
legacies. These callers Miss Ingham ad-
Vises how to best invest their money.
THE promoters of wildcat stock are
responsible for much misery among Wild
ows and their children" she said.
Through an organized system the wild
cat promoter of stocks, peach farms, real
estate and other things too numerous to
mention manages to keep informed of
the death of men who are worth a few
thousand dollars. When death visits
certain family these men become busy.
They remain busy until they have been
successful in enticing some innocent in
vestor into their clutches.
"A few days ago a trained nurse vis-
tied me and related how she had invested
several thousand dollars in a peach farm.
rms woman has never received any divi-
dends: The amount which she invested
has also been lost. Another case is that
or poor widow who lost $4,000 in a
certain investment. The chief trouble is
that poor women invest their money on
the strength of some story related TO
them by a friend, neghbor or relative.
