Dick and I have been out to-
gether a good deal lately. Dick
has grumbled a lot, but he has
had to go, and has managed to do
1t finally with more or less
grace. There have been so many
parties given for Mollie that the
poor girl is looking quite tagged.
"I'll be glad when it is all
over" she said yesterday.
Last night we were invited to
some old friends of the Waverlys
to a dance. All the old crowd
was there.

little secluded place behind bank
of potted palms and flowers,

one of the women. Yes, l think
she is better looking than she was

Dick did a lot better after all
to marry her than If he had taken
Eleanor Fairlow,' said the other
woman.
Ibid you ever see anyone who
has gone off in looks like she
has?"
well. they say, poor girl, that
she is just dying of a broken
heart. Besides, you know she
has lost all her money and has
had to go to work. She is at the
training school for nurses and
you know that is awful hard work
and you know Eleanor never did
any work before in her life.
But she is not at the training
school now and ce3tainly at the
present moment she doesn't look
as though she were dying of q
broken heart, does she?"
! craned my neck q little
around the great blue vase back
of which I was sitting and saw
Eleanor Fairlow looking perfectly
charming. dancing with Dick.
She was talking and smiling.
but Dick had that look on his face
which l had often told him would
make me want to go off and die,
II he looked that way when l was
talking to him.
I was SO busy for a few min
utes looking at Dick and Eleanor
that I did not catch what the
women were saying. Little book,

not, but you see l could hardly
leave my seat and go, as ! would

HARRIS ASKS
FUNDS FOR
ORPHANS


M Il. Harris. manager of the Okla
homa Benevolent and Orphanage as
sociation, having homes for friendless
children in Chickasha and in Cornish,
has begun his annual canvass for
funds for the support of the institu-
tion and will work here during the
week. He started yesterday, receiv-
ing liberal subscriptions from the
son-Halsell-Frasie company,
the Chickasha Milling company and
the First National bank, and he ex-
poets to complete his work in the city
during the next few days.
"Chickasha and Ardmore have al
ways been our best contributors, said
Mr.. Harris. I'VE have quite a large
list Of people in both towns who have
been liberal supporters Of the institu-
tion for years and they never fail to
respond when we call on them"
Founded originally BY Mr. Harris at
Cornish as a private institution, this
orphange is now partly supported by
appropriations made by the legisla-
ture. Mr.. Harris having decided his
property to the state, but the work
which it does is so large in volume
that is necessary to ask for contribu
buttons to carry it on. Two Chicka-
sha men are members of the board ot
directors, w. S. Corbin being vice
president and c. Schlotterbeck, the
treasurer. Mr.. Harris lives in Chick
asha and maintains a branch of the
home here Since the institution was
founded hundreds Of children have
been cared for and ultimately placed
in good homes to be reared.

liant coup. Gateps excellent German
led him to converse with German sol
diers in the trenches not thirty yards
away from the French trenches in the
Argonne forest Hearing one day that
the Germans had been without bread
for many hours he walked boldly out
OF his own trench and up to the Ger
man stronghold. Introducing himself,
the lieutenant Offered pity that his
enemies had nothing to eat and con-
cluded by inviting the men to come
TO the French trenches and partake OF
a good meal. One hundred and four
teen of the Germans crawled out OF
the trench and followed him to barn
in the rear OF the French trench where
he fed them and gave them wine But
with the meal over, Gatel smilingly
announce to his guests that he was
keeping them prisoners lin their own
interest, because in France they would
be sure of good food and lodging"
In the meantime other French sol
diers had surrounded the banquet
hall" and resistance was useless.
This incident and gallantry in the
trenches later won the lieutenant his
promotion.
An active campaign has just begun
by the National Council of French
Women to take advantage of the tenn
porary measures enacted as mere war

council has just applied to parliament
demanding that the present war reg
ulations not only prohibiting the sale
of absinthe but limiting the sale of al
coholic drinks Of all kinds be enacted
into law.
