OFFICIAL STATEMENT
"In view of the many inaccur-
rate and misleading statements
which are being made, either
deliberately or ignorantly, about
the finances of the government
with respect to the current fiscal
year and the fiscal year 1917, / feel
that true and accurate analysis
of the situation may be of service
10 the public. The question OF the
national finances is so intimately
related to other vital problems
which must be settled in the inter
est of the American people, that
every right-minded citizen should
want the truth, in order that he
may help form that intelligent
public opinion out of which alone
can arise sound and just conclu-
sions. With this in mind, desire
to submit to the public the follow

The Story of the Conservatory

A dozen years ago there came TO
Kansas City a young man with a pur.

straight smile, a college education and
a dogged determination.
He was from Boston, but even in
Boston, the average man knows better
than to attempt the impossible.
At least everybody said it was impos-
sible, this a~il-pervading purpose. But
they couldn't help thinking, afterward,
of the cut OF the young mans iib, and

possible to a smile so very straight ana
a Jaw SO well defined.
1T is my object, " he said, Ito give
the people OF Kansas City an institution
similar to the New England Conservatory
Of Boston"
Impossible, " said one whose daugi-
ter vas a student at the New England
Conservatory. why, man, nobody but
a fool would think OF starting A conser-
vatory in Kansas City
"I'm the fool, u replied the young
man, whose Jaw looked a little more
prominent.
The Dream Comes True
Years have passed. A conservatory
similar to the New England has been
established in Kansas City.
Moreover, the man OF wealth, who ia
also a man OF fine culture, has cheerful
ly, even gladly, eaten his " words.
"Iou have achieved the impossible -
he has SAID, and | am the TOOL, 81 or
something like that. And he is today "A

Kansas City what it was he wanted to
give them. At the word MUSIC they
SHE'D and put OIL binders Tor future pro
lection. At the word Conservatory
they pucked and tried to leap the fence
OF the corral.

Cowan when he was trying to get a little
backing in the early days of the conser-
vatory. why il there was a symphony

chauffeur and drive out into the coun-
try"
The man meant Nhat he said, but
since that time his young people have
gone to the conservatory and have
brought music--good muslc-lnto their
home, with the result that their father Is
a bug for the very music ne once de
spised.
A Backbone Of Steel
From the beginning the Kansas City
Conservatory has developed on a sound
business basis. Lowan grit Is rather a
slogan among men who nave watched 1t
take hold OF something that looked per
%ilously like a ~foregone failure and make
it a success. There is a tradition among
the business men who have found 1t paid
to promote the conservatory that instead
OF an ordinary backbone, President
Cowan is equipped with a spinal column
made OF tempered steel.
This year the conservatory is in anew
home at 1918 Linwood boulevard.
All branches OF Music and Dramatic
Art are taught. Catalogue will be cent
upon request.-From Kansas City Star.

CHAPTER XVIII.
A Chance Of Plan.

Cn9n0o OF PldHs
That day and the next Westerling
had no time for strolling in the gar
den. His only exercise was, q few
periods Of pacing on the veranda. Tur-
cas-, as tireIessly industrious IS ever,
developed an increasingly quiet insist
ence to leave the responsibility Of de-
cisions about everything Of Importance
to a chief who was becoming increas-
ingIy arbitrary. The attack on Enga-
dir being the Jewel Of Westerling's
own planning, he was disinclined to
risk success by delegating authority,
which also meant sharing the glory of
victory. ...
BouChard's note, though of1cially dis
missed as a matter Of pathology. would
not accept dismissal privately. In
flashes of distinctness it required. TO
him between reports Of the progress
of preparations and directions as to
dispositions. At dusk Of the second
day, when all the guns and troops had
their places for the final movement pn-
der cover of darkness and he rose
from his desk, the thing that had
edged its way into crowded mind
took possession Of the premises that
strategy and tactics had vacated. 1t
passed under the same analysis as his
work. His overweening pride, 80 SEN
sitive to the suspicion of a conviction
. that he had been fooled, put his rela-
tons with Marta in logical review. He
had fallen in love in the midst Of war.
A cool and intense impatience pos
sessed him to study her in the light
of his new skepticism, when, turning
the path of the first terrace, he saw
her watching the sunset over the crest
of the range.
She was standing quite still, a slim,
soft shadow between him and the light,
which gilded her figure and quarter
profile. Did she expect him? he won
dered. Was she posing at that in
slant for his benefit. When she
turned, her face in the shadow, the
glow of the sunset seemed to remain
in her eyes, otherwise without express
sion, yet able to detect something un-
usual under externals as they ex-
changed commonplace Of greeting.
well, there's a change in our off,
cial family. We have lost Bouchard-
transferred to another post!" said
Westerling.
Marta noted that, though he gave
the news casual turn, his scrutiny
sharpened.
"Is that SO? I can't say that my
mother and l shall be sorry" she re-
marked. HE was always glazing at
us as II he wished US out of sight.
Indeed, IL he had his way, think he
would have made US prisoners OF war.
Wasn't he a woman-hater?" she con-
cluded,' half in irritation, half in
amusement.
"He had that reputation" said Wes-
terling. what do you think led to
his departure?" he continued.
II confess / cannot guess!" said
Marta, with look at the sunset glow
as II she resented the loss OF min
ute Of 1t.
There has been leak Of informa-
ton to the Brownsl" he announced.
There hasl And he was intelli-
gence officer, wasn't he?" she asked,

ject.

recovered his. He was again the su
perman In command.
ut IL for you and not for US tc
locate the leak; yes. for you'll" he
said. THAT, 10 all on the subject fol
the present" he added in q tone Of
mixed pity and contempt. which left
Bouchard freed from the stare Of his
colleagues and in the miserable com
pany Of his humiliation. ~
All on the subject for the present.
When 1t was taken up again his sue.
cessor would be In charge. He. the
indefatigable, the over-intense. with
medieval partisan fervor, who loathed
in secret machines like Turcas, was
the first man of the star to go for In
competency.
sAnd Engadir isithe key-point." Yves
terling was saying. ... %.
"Yes," agreed Turcas. ,.. .a.
80 we concentrate to break through
there" Westerling continued, while
we engage the whole line Hereby
enough to make the enemy uncertain
where the crucial attack is to be
made" "a
But, general. IL there Is any place
that is naturally strong. that" Tur-
cas- began.
"The one place where they are conf
dent that we won't attack" Wester-
ling interrupted. He resented the
Stairs professional respect for Turcas.
After a silence and survey Of the
faces around, he added with senten.
tious effect: And was right about
Bordir"
To this argument there could be no
answer. The one stroke of general
ship by the Grays, who, otherwise, had
succeeded alone through repeated
mass attacks, had been Westerlings
hypothesis that had gained Bordir In
a single assault.
"Engadir 1t is then!" said Turcas
with the loyalty of the subordinate
who makes superior's conviction his
own, the better to carry 1t out.
Hazily, Bouchard had heard the talk,
while he was looking at Westerling
and seeing him. not at the head Of the
council table, but in the arbor in eager
appeal to Marta.
ri shall find out! I shall find out!"
was drumming in his temples when
the council rose; and, without word
or q backward glance, he was the first
to leave the room.
When Bouchard returned to his desk
he guessed the contents Of the note
awaiting him, but he took a long time
to read it's stereotyped expressions in
transferring him to perfunctory duty
we'll to the rear of the army. Then he
pulled himself together and, leaden-
hearted, settled down to arrange rou-
tine details for his departure, while
the rest of the STAFF was immersed in
the activity of the preparations for the
attack ON Engadir. He knew that he
could not sleep II he lay down. So he
spent the night at work. In the morn
ing his successor, a young man whom
he himself had chosen and trained.
Colonel Bellini, appeared, and the
fallen man received the rising man
with forced ofiicial courtesy.
'In my own defense and for your
aid" he said, Il show you a copy Of
what have just written to General
westerling."
A brief note 1t was, in farewell, be-
ginning with conventional thanks for
westerling's confidence in the past.
