'Father!" Paloma was deeply

Father = Paloma was deeply
shocked.
Complete isolation, of course, Alaire
had found to be impossible, even
though her ranch lay far from the trav-
eied roads and her Mexican guards
were not encouraging to visitors. Busi-
ness inevitably brought her into con-
tact with a considerable number of
people, and of these the one she saw
most frequently was Judge Ellsworth
of Brownsville, her attorney.
1t was perhaps a week after Ed had
left for San Antonio that Alaire felt
the need of Ellsworth's counsel, and
sent for him. Ellsworth was a kindly
man of fifty-fve, with a forceful chin
and a dropping, heavy-lidded eye that
could either blaze or twinkle. Judge
Ellsworth knew more than any four
men in that part of Texas; information
had a way of seeking him out. He was
good lawyer. toO and yet his knOwl-
edge of human nature he considered
far more important than law. His
mind was like full granary, and every
grain lay where he could put his hand
upon it.
He motored out from Brownsville,
and after Kidding himself of dust, in
sisted upon spending the interval be
fore dinner in an inspection of Alaire's
latest ranch improvements. Not until
dinner was over did he inquire the rea-
son for his summons.
"It's about La Feria. General Lon
gorio has confscated my stock Alaire
told him. 81 was afraid of this very
thing, and so was preparing to bring
the stock over. Still never thought
they'd actually confiscate it."
Hasn't Ed done enough to provoke
cOnfscation?" asked the judge. 81

ing every assistance he can to their

81 didn't know he'd actually done
anything. How madp
"Yes-for a man with interests in
federal territory. But Ed always does
the wrong thing, you know"
'Then / presume this confscation is
in the nature of a. reprisal But the
stock is mine not Eds. l want your
help in taking up the matter with
Washington"
Ellsworth was pessimistic. ''It
won't do any good, my DEAR" he said
"YOu won't be paid for your cattle" :"
''Then l shall go to La Feria."
"No" The judge shook his head
decidedly.

THE RED CROSS---Its Work

In an age charged with being
selfish, sordid, and commercial
there has grown up and develop
ed the greatest organization for
unseifsh service the world has
ever seen-the American Red
Cross. The growth of the Red
Cross Society is evidence not to
be controverted that the spirit
of service is strong in the hearts
of the people of to-day. The
work of the society demonstrates
that there are thousands who
are willing to devote their ser
vices to humanity, and the sup
port given them by voluntary
contributions shows that there
are hundreds of thousands more
who are willing to devote a por-
ton of their means to the allevi-
alton Of suffering.
The activities Of the Red Cross
always have been generously
supported by the American pub
lie, but only since 'our own"
soldiers began to take a place in
the trenches alongside our allies
has this support become bounti-
full. 1t is the suffering and COM
fort Of the men from "our own
neighborhoods" as we'll as the
physical needs of our allies for
which the Red Cross must now
mobilize. The result-a greater
and more imperative duty now
confronts the givers in America.
No appeal to the generosity of
the American people has ever
been unanswered. Let one part
of the world be visited by some
calamity like the Mount Pelee
and Italian earthquake, China
floods, the Johnstown flood, the
San Francisco earthquake or any
greater or lesser calamity, and
the response from the Nation is
immediate and generous to a de-
gree. The services of the
American Red Cross Society to
both sides in the Boer war and
in other wars was liberal and sac
rificing. Fresher in our minds
is the work the American unit
has been doing in Europe in the
last three years, especially the
relief given the Belgian popula-
tion.
To meet this new and greatly
enlarged demand this demand
that has the added force of pat
riotism and a duty we owe our
own soldiers there has been a
campaign to raise $100, 900, 900
for the Req Cross work. The
campaign has been conducted
with a vigor and earnestness
that insured success. 1t was par
ticipaated in by all classes of
Americans from the President of
the Nation down to the smallest
boy scout, and the women of the
Nation were parsicularly active.
Red Cross week" will not be
the only time in which one can
assist the work Of the society.
Every week should be a Red
Cross week with those who are
able to contribute to the work of
this greatest agency of mercy.
It's work is pressing and will con-
tinue a long time. 1t needs con-
tinue support and will not appeal
in vain to a people as generous
as the American Nation.

Smith Motor Trucks Ramb-
ling Over Roads at IS Per

Idea of a motor truck rambling
over country roads at forty-five
miles an hour and outdistancing
a six cylinder touring touring
car, seems to border on the fairy
tale order, but nevertheless this
is a proved fact and is recorded
in the report of Maj. A. w. Yale,
submitted to the War Depart
ment in reviving the perform
ance of a Smith Form-a-Truck
selected to play the part of an
army ambulance in a first run
from Philadelphia to Washing
ton, D. c., April 13.
'The ambulance made an ex-
cellent showing" /" he states.
"On only one hill was it found
necessary to shift to low gears,
the entire trip being made on
high. | followed to Havre de
Grace in a six cylinder machine
and was unable to keep up with
the ambulance on rough roads. +"
Maintaining an average speed
of 275 miles an hour durisg the
run, part of the journey was
made at a As mile-an-hour gait,
with eleven members of the hos
pital reserve serving as live
ballast. Two of the number
spent their time in stretchers,
testing these out under trials
which fairly approximate war
coditions.
The Governments represent
ative travelled part of the way in
the truck, to better observe its
performance and prove the unex-
pected ease of riding by his
terse statement that, ''the men
in the stretchers slept
The return journey from the
national capital to the Penn
sylvania metropolis was negotia-
ted on IL gallons Of gasoline, an
average of 1872 miles to gallon.
After these remarkable per-
formaces, the General Sales
Manager Of the Eastern Division
of the corpation staged what is
declared TO be the most remark
able test of its kind held in the
vicinity of the capitol. Over the
roughest roads to be found in
Virginia, in country where all
roads are rough, he sent his one
and-a-half ton trucks, mounted
with ordinary bodies this time,
and laden with a cargo Of 1910
pounds, an overload of 1910 lbs,
at a 35 mile an hour clip; dashed
them through rough creeks,
over sawdust roads until they
stopped with their tenders in the
mud, and finally wound up by
driving them through a newly
made cut, up a severely steep
incline where the roadway was
largely sand and loose clay.
This tremedous undertaking was
entirely voluntary and additional
to the tests required by the gov
ernment; and served to prove be-
yond all doubt the pulling power
of the machine and the depend
ability of the Smith Form-a-
truck.

FORMER UNIVERSITY STUDENT
GETS GERMAN AIR MACHINE

PARIS-Phelps Collins, son of Rich
ard H. Collins of Detroit, an American
aviator now serving with one of the
French squadrillas, brought down one
of seven German machines flying in
company. Collins flew at a great
height above seven German machines
near Ypres. He dived down and fired
into the last German machine, which
doubled up and fell in flames. and
escaped before the other six could
fire upon him.
Collins, who is 20 years old, was
student at the university during the.
first semester of the 1915-1916 college
year. He is a nephew of Wilkie Col
Inns, who was for three years head of
the university English department.

CENSUS! SHOWS
FOOD PLENTIFUL
EXCEPT WHEAT
ALL AMERICA URGED TO SUBSTI-
TUTE CORN, BEANS AND
POTATOES

WASHINGTON - Preliminary re-
ports on Americas war crop census
prove that Americas housewives must
conserve wheat very carefully if our
European allies are not to go bread
less, according to Chief Charles D.
Brand of the U. S. department of agri-
cultures division of markets.
One hundred and eighty-five thou
sand answers received thus far from
100000 queries to crop experts
throughout the country show, Brand
said, that while the wheat crop is
short, there is plenty of corn
Value of the Pledge
This proves conclusively," said
food administration official today,
that the argument we are using to
get the country's 100000 house
wives to sign and live up to the con-
ditions of the food pledge card during
food pledge week, October 21-28, is
absolutely sound.
I'VE plead with them to save a
slice Of bread per person per day. We
suggest the use of cornbread and other
cereals mixed with wheat instead of
so much wheat. Brand reports
slight shortage of oats, barley and ]
which confirms our cam
paign to make corn the chief sub {
stitute for wheat {
SIN to Waste Food
Chief Brand, basing his statement
IN reports to his division, urged that s
be careful not to waste I
'ood of any kind
I'VE cannot be too careful he de-
dared, ito advise conservation, not !
,nly during food pledge week, but at
III other times. Buyers should be ex-.l
lct and cautious. All supplies should
re handled with care, and economy Z
hould be practised on every side.

ar crop census queries within the
