All that she could do was 70 Sit
still. with a wooden feeling about her
heart and a stiffness that was almost
like physical pain. Before any more
conversation could be had on the sub

curtain up and Helen found herself
looking eagerly for the appearance OF
this woman who had flashed for the
second time into her life.

see that she had some talent. Given a
small part, she was making the most
Of it. and the audience was plainly
with her. Her exit from stage evoked

glanced sidewise at Warren to find

Little Things Help.

An example of the Importance of
looking after the little things in life
is furnished by the work of the Red
Cross Society in the collection and
saving of the tin foil that is custom
arily thrown away upon the streets of
nearly every city and town in the land.
This tin foil has value of about
30 cents per pound, and in Los Ange-
les last year the Elks' lodge alone in
two months collected and saved 400
pounds of this material for the benefit
of the Red Cross.
In practically every city and town
in the United States where the Red
Cross has local representation a cam
paign has been started for the col
lection Of tin foil. 1t has been sug-
gested that the matter be taken up
here and receptacles provided in a
few public places into which the lead
from chewing gum, cigars, tobacco,
some Kinds of candy, etc, can be de-
posted for the benefit of the Red
Cross. Who will start the lead ball to
rolling?

State Agricultural officials are out

country, among them being a trans
parent, pitless plum" guaranteed to
grow from small tree and grape
vine slips which are declared to be
sure to bear any kind of grape from

have been turned up in the course of
the investigation into the manner in
which the nursery inspection act is
being enforced and arrests are
likely.
The nursery inspection act is aim
ed at the tree agent who used to
travel over the country and send in
any old kind of trees or not deliver
any at all after carefully collecting.
Now every agent is required to take
out license and so must his en- =
