connected with it's management. He
was its first president and he served
the Institute as president from 1853
to 1854, and again from 1905 until his
death October 1915. Even more
notable was his service upon the
Library Committee of the Institute,
for of that committee he was the first
and only chairman that it has ever
had, serving continuously from 1853
to October 1915. Those qualities of
mind and character that early made
Professor Camp a conspicuous figure
in the life Of our state that active
sympathy that throughout a long life
he felt for the cause # education and
all that ministers to it. were all GEN.
tered upon this Institute which he
helped to found. and the great work
which it is doing for the entertain
ment and uplift of our people should
long keep his name in grateful re-
membranoe."

gamy and treason, Mrs. Lulu Loveland
Shepard, of the National Reform as
ISOLATION, asserted that Joseph Smith,
head of the Mormon church, defeated
prohibition in Utah in 1909 and again
in 1915.
"Mormonism has grown more rap
idly in the last fifty years than any
other church, and today one person
in every sixty is Mormon said Mrs.
Shepard.
THE power Of tho Mormon church
lies in it's commercialism for as
church it is the richest in the world.

boarded up in Wall street and there
is 100000 900 more money IN Utah.
The sugar business in the United

it holds the balance of power pollt-
cally in eleven states. if it gets con-
troll of two more western states it can
hold the balance of power in con-
gress.'

amendment through congress this

in the library, looking out some old prints for a well-intentioned futurist. We have become artistic, you know. /"
 If there was a covert sheer in the last words Farquhar was not in po- sition to notice it, for he had already begun to cross the room. One or two people spoke to him, but he answered absently, and they did not detain him. A pair of heavy tapestry curtains sepa- rated the so-called library from the drawing room. He pushed them softly aside and entered.
 Sylvia Omney stood at the long table beneath the subdued cluster of electric light, her head bowed, her back toward him. She did not seem to hear his en- trance, for she did not move, and he did not seek to call her attention. She was not looking at the great folio which lay spread out before her, but staring sightlessly into the shadows, her cheeks bathed in color, her lips parted in breathless anticipation. A moment later she lifted her hands to her face, and he saw that she trembled. He knew then that she was conscious of his presence, and that that same awe and dread of their dawning happi- ness held her as it had held him in paralyzed waiting.
 Sylvia" he said brokenly.
 She did not turn. She looked up, and in the glass their eyes met. The color had fled, leaving her winter than the dead purity of her dress; her jaw had dropped. For an instant 1t seemed to him that veil had been torn from her face, leaving it piteously distorted.
 "Sylviar' he repeated h 2 changed tone
 She turned then with little stined gasp Her h1E1 Nith tho 1ace hand.

sof course. Sylvia and get on very well. Has anything been heard of the brother?'
 T don't think so. But I shall hear tonight"
 "Cut his throat probably She glanced back at him with a curious lit tie smile on her eolorless face. All the same, Sylvia is lucky. I am rather proud of you myself, Richard. You are the only man I know who dresses in perfect taste without looking a vul- gar noodle. Good night"
 She kissed him hurriedly as he held the door open for her, and for an in stant she looked up into his face with a curious half-tender, half-whimsical grimaee. Then she was gone.
 An hour later Richard Farquhar en- tered the Omneys' drawing room. He found his host by the fireside, a some what lone figure with the white, thin face of man never wholly at rest. He greeted Farquhar eagerly and nervously. Vel expected you be- fore"
 T have been kept at Aldershot," <" Farquhar answered. T came my first free evening. I can't tell you how keen I have been to see you both again-and to hear your news"
 The elder man seemed to shrink to- gether. He glanced nervously over his shoulder, and his face was gray and sunken.
 There is no news, Farquhar. We traced him to Marseilles, and then fol lowed wrong scent over to Gran and farther south. It all came to nothing the wrong fellow all the time. Ii broke me up. I've lost hope-all hope Farquhar."
 "He will come back,' the other sug- gested.
 'No, no; he was reckless and obsti- nate and-a bit Of coward. He couldn't face the disgrace-he left that to us-and he couldn't face me. I dare say 1 was harsh-but swear I didn't deserve this. And now I have to lie and pretend and play this confounded comedy. People-the few who believe will tell you that my son is sheep farming in Australia. Farquhar, what in heavens name possesses a man to want children? Mine have been a curse"
 You have your daughter" was the sharp Interruption.
 The banker glanced at the man be. side him. The thin, bronzed face was slightly flushed, and there was a fire in the passionate eyes which seemed to cause the observer new emotion. He turned away, his thin features twisted into wry smile.
 "Yes-I have Sylvia-naturally she is a great comfort. But she is young you must always remember that, and one must judge youth by other stand. ards. We must not expect too much. J
 "One might expect everything of Sylvia" Farquhar responded grayely
 Again the swift, anxious glance swept over his face.
 "Ah, yes, you are young yourself We'll, suppose you want to see her I won't detain you. You will find her

The red mirage blinds Far quhar's eyes when he sacrifices himself to protect his fathers memory, and to protect the girl he loves. Nameless in the For. eign Legion, going through worse than death at the hands of those who should have been his friends, the mirage still blinds him, and when the mi rage dissolves in the love and sympathy of a real woman, it seems too late. But you must read the story to know how completely "perfectly goodv woman may ruin the life of an impulsive, chivalrous man, and how sympathetic, loving one may help him to life and hope again.

 And so you have really made up your mind, Richard?'
 With your consent, mother"
 Mrs. Farquhar sighed and tapped an impatient tattoo on the fender with her small, well-shod foot.
 My share in the matter has not the slightest importance. You might have spared me the farce"
 It's not a farce; as it happens, want your consent. It's true-I'll marry without it-but it will make all the difference to my happiness" He put his head a little to one side and looked at her whimsically. Really, mother, you are the last person to blame me for falling in love. It was you who taught me to adore the sex"
 She made no answer. But she glanced up at the tall Venetian mirror and her mouth relaxed. She undoubt- edly possessed charm which made it seem scarcely credible that the man beside her was her son. She was small but beautifully made. She possessed the nameless quality which excuses everything and has sent men in all ages from crime to great place and from great place to the gallows. Rich ard Farquhar bore her no resemblance, though it was conceivable that without the wig and the coating of powder she might have revealed a certain similar ity of coloring. His face and broad shouldered, narrow-hipped figure re vealed race, also vigor and headstrong temperament, which a peculiar light in the eyes accentuated At the moment his expression was gay, but it yelled excitement and something obstinately resolved.
 You are a vain old womanv' he said lightly. T believe you expected me to be dancing at your apron strings in blind adoration all my life.'
 q did nothing of the sort. I wanted you to marry-but not Sylvia Omney" ,"
 He looked at her in unconcealed sur prise. Possibly her tone was new to him. It was sharp and irritable; it re- vealed her suddenly as an old woman.
 T think I must be rather like my father" he said thoughtfully. T don't remember him, and I have never seen anything of his save an old letter to you. Here it is'' From his breast pocket he took out an old letter GOV cred with yellow, faded writing and unfolded it. Tt gives me a queer feeling, too, when I read 1t, he went on slowly. q might have written 1t myself-to the woman I loved. He must have loved you madly, mother. One feels in every line that you were a religion to him-that he would have sold himself, body and soul"
 Don't" she interrupted sharply, an- grily. Then she gave shrill, unsteady little laugh.
 My poor Richard! Yes, you are like him-very like him. But if it's the wrong woman-what then?'
 .sOf course, 1t must not be the wrong woman," he said slowly. But my fa- ther chose rightly, as I know l have chosen. I have chosen a woman after his own heart-Sylvia is like you, mother"
 Sylvia is like mel" She lifted her faded. still beautiful eyes to his face. "Yes. I suppose she is-what men call womanly woman. God help men from what they call womanly women. Well'' -she turned away with care less, almost contemptuous movement of the shouldersI can't save you. Take my blessing, Richard That's what you want, isn't it?"
 Thank you. may bring Sylvia 70

IS AWAITING DECISION
ON MIGRATORY BIRD LAW
Senator Mclean Hopes for Favor
able Action by q. s. Supreme Court
on Constitutionality.

A decision Of the United States Su-
preme Court as to the constitutionalfty
of the federal migratory bird law is ex-
pected soon. The constitutionality Of
the law came before the court on appeal
from Arkansas. where a hunter. to test
the law shot three coots-ducklike
birds-out Of season.
The federal law. since its passage two
years ago. has. according to the Depart
ment Of Agriculture. resulted in the in
crease In waterfowl from ten to several
hundred per cent. according to locality.
Hopes Law Will Be Sustained.
IT am hopeful that the court will sus-
tain the law" said Senator Mclean, the
father of the bill However. should
the Law be declared unconstitutional
there are two other means by which the
protection Of migratory birds can be ac-
complished. and further steps to this
end already have been taken.
"One is by constitutional amendment,
and have already introduced a resolu-.
ton for a constitutional amendment
The other Is by treaties with foreign
countries. a resolution regarding which
has already been agreed to by the SEN
ate and submitted to the Department of
State.
Eject Of Treaty.
IF we were to enter into treaty with
Great Britain regarding birds. as we
have regarding tho nsh Of the great
lakes then the United States would
automatically acquire control of migra-
tory birds. Eleven European countries
already have such treaties relative to
migratory birds. and the United States
should make similar treaties
The constitutional amendment intro
duced by Senator Mclean provides that
Congress shall have power to protect
migratory birds and 20 prohibit and reg
ulate the killing Of them.
