FATHER IS NAMED
Two Girls Now Are Living at
CrittentOn Home.
Warrants for a Young Man
Have Been Held Up.

Out in Crittenton home are two
motherless giris-sisters. one 13 and
the other 10 years of age-both in the
only condition that justifies treatment
at the home. The county attorney has
their names. He has the name of the
young man charged by the younger
girl
Warrants were to have been issued
today but additional and sensational
evidence was secured and presented
by Miss Kate King, welfare worker,
ana the warrants were held up, pend
in, further investigation.
The information dug up by Miss
King is to the effect that the father
o. the girls and not the young man
made, is responsible for the condition
of the two girls.
The case. first came to the atten-
tor of county officials when the
younger girl began to absent herself
fl on her school classes. The matter
was reported to the truancy officer
and Ed Rooney, former truancy Off
GER made an investigation.
He followed up the girl, who was
missing from school. and discovered
quit school entirely and she was To-
Gated in Crittenton home. While
looking into her case the investigator
found she had a sister in the same in
stitUtion-a sister 10 years of age
in the same condition.
For three days the case has been
batted back and forth from the Prov
ident association to the county attor-
ney's office and from there to Miss
Kate King. It is probable that a war
rant will be issued in the case, within
a short time.

home as would produce cases of this
kind said Mr.. Rooney. THE home

War Horses We Have Sold.

Nearly 100000 horses and mules
have been purchased in the United
States for foreign account since Sept.
], 1914. While this number is but a
small percentage Of America s aorse
and mule stock, the business has new
ertheless been a tremendous one.
Twenty-Five horses make up an aver
age freight or express load. That
means that $4,000 carloads have been
shipped from the country to the coast
taking no account of short local ship
ments. These horses have travelled no
less than an average of 1000 miles
each. The 81 900 cars earned for the
railroad and express companies $4,000
600.
1t was a lucky horse that voyaged
from farm to steamboat in less than
- days. Six million dollars for feed
in stables, markets, stockyurds and
concentration camps is a low estimate

How to Attract the Birds

In the Woman S Home Companion
Franz Biehler gives direction as to
building houses that birds will nest IN
and how to secure a garden that birds
will come to.
A good many species, to be sure,
build their own nests to suit them
selves. They choose their own quar-
tiers, and will have nothing to do with
all those cute little houses and nesting
boxes which we put up so insinuatinglv
about the garden-always in places
where we can watch what is going on!
But the Martins and the swallows,
the wrens and the bluebirds, the chiea-
dees, and even the hickers and the
screech owls can sometimes be enticed
to adopt our human-made tenements.
Indeed, some of them like the martins,
seem to be peculiarly happy with the
provisions which we offer There is
no end of fun making these bird
houses. They should always have a
projecting roof to keep out the rain,
and the front door should be high of
the floor.
Mr.. Biehler also reminds all bird
lovers that water is an essential to any
bird garden and tells how it should
be used to the best advantage.

We have left 10 times as many
horses as have gone, but we should
remember that those which have gone
are practically all of the best of three
types. There will be brilliant market
for these three types for several years
after the European conflict is over
and there will be time enough in which
