HERE'S HOW
THEY DID IT

Miss Wickersham was the first
person to bring to The Times a
solution of the democratic con-
vention puzzle printed yesterday.
Hers was slightly different
from the one furnished by Sam
Lloyd, the puzzle author.
The problem was to trace the
paths taken by President Wilson,
Champ Clark and william Jen-
nings Bryan so that Wilson
should leave the lobby by exit A,
Clark by exit B and Bryan by
exit c, without any of their paths
crossing.
Here is Lloyd's answer:

AM 1 GETTING OVER
LOVING DICK?


1t is astonishing, little book,
how the mere act of writing that
letter to Malcolm Stuart has
changed my outlook.
That is it, 1t is now an out
look and for many, many months
lit has been an Unlock. I have
had nothing to think about ex-
cept Margie Waverly, and truly
her experience have doomed
large.
Now | am going to take the af-
fairs of Alice under my wing, IL
she will let me.
This morning Pat came to see
me. but man-like, he did not say
one word directly about Alice s
terrible tragedy.
The one thing he did say, how
ever, that touched me deeply was
that Alice had said she would not
think of leaving me until after
the Vienna specialist had been
here, and IL | had to have an OPP
Grafton she wanted to nurse me
through it.
Then he hesitated a minute
and said, "Alice loves you very
much, Margie."
My dear Pat" l don't think
she loves me any more than l
love her. Try to imagine what
my life would have been for the
last year if it had not been for
her gentle ministrations, not
only to my body, but to my soul.
Pat, | think Alice is a woman
in a thousand. l am proud to
call her my friend. She is not
only worthy of but, to my mind.
vastly superior to any man l
know, including you. She will
make up to you for all the sor-
row you have had with your
loves up to date"
And then Pat said surprising
thing.
why, Margie, I've never been
in love before, never known
what the word meant"
could not help smiling lit
tie. for that was so like a man.
Pat had put his former loves. into
that convenient "fOrgettery" OF
his and they were as though they
had never been.
Men always think the last love
is the only love. l wonder IL you
remember. little book, that even
the great lovers, Heine and
Goesthe, never remembered the
fair ones they had loved but only
the ones they were loving at the
time.
George Elliott. being a woman,
was more honest. She frankly
said after the death of Lewes and
her marriage, why is it thai the
poets and writers say 50 much
about first love and nothing about
any that comes after?"
How ones mind changes, little
book! If anyone said to me at the
moment I shut the book-of-my-
girlhood that l would ever have
harbored the slightest thought of
ever loving anyone but Dick l
would have been Mortified and in
suited, but today know that
there can be a, much more pas

womans heart than l fee& Tor

1t almost seems to mo as
though our marriage was a mis-
take, and, little book, when either
husband or wife begins to sense
that, one may az well own up that
the end is in sight.
I have not seen Dick since the
evening he came in for a moment
on his way to keep the telephone
engagement. He evidently has

Wilmington. Del, June 12.-Infor-
nation received here indicates that as
soon a. members Of Congress settle
down to business after they return
from the national conventions steps
will be taken to probe the charges Of
lobbying by big corporations made
during recent debates in Congress.
The DUPONT Company is urging an
early investigation into the charges
laid at its door during the discussions
of the army and navy bills. 1t has
been told that nothing can be done
Until the presidential nominees OF the
two great parties shall have been Sc
lected.
The company was accused by Sem
ator Underwood of trying to defeat
tho bill providing for a government
owned plant for the fxauon of at
mospheric nitrogen. This charge was
made Immediately following a pro-
posal offered by the DuPonts to build
s20,000.000 plant for the produce
ton of nitric acid from the air and
to agree to supply the government,
at its own price. with such acid as
the government might need for the
making Of munitions. The Alabama
Senator declared on the floor of the
Senate that the DuPonts were using
the methods OF lobbyists to defeat a
project then before the Congress for
the government to build a plant for
a like purpose. =
These charges were denied prompt
ly and officially. The denials were
accepted and read into the Congress

at the line where he was convinced
the Germans would try to pass. He
