Nell told me she'd found where he

her again, or leastways to marry her
for the babys sake. But no, he
wouldn't. He jest laughed at her and
told her to go on away.

The secretary in hiding wondered,
too, but the judge kept silence and so
did Gloria on her side of the flower
screen.
Gloria was not concerned about
! Trask's bowilde-uent. She was staring

had loved her, but he felt that such
a declaration would only be a pre-
sumptuous folly.
Gloria could not read his thoughts,
but she knew that he had suddenly
chilled and shortly after he was gone

him to wait upon her once more. But
her health, which had broken down
when she was in the first flush of her
affair with Freneau (for "affair" was
what she called it now), held up splen-
didly when she felt sick at heart and
weary of life.
For some reason which he did not
make plain-largely because his excuse
was rtificial-Doctor Royce happened
to drop in at the country place few
days later. The fact was that he could
neither endure the lack of Gloria nor
find plausible reason for calling. So
he called and mumbled his reason in
articuately.
He talked very earnestly about moth
go, but did not go. At length he really
started. and Gloria felt that she was
being marooned once more on the dull
waste of life. So she pretended to
swoon. He heard her little gasp and
saw her toppling over on a carefully
selected soft spot. He ran to her in
great alarm, tried her pulse and found
it normal, chafed her hand and found
it warm. He was bewildered. The
symptoms and the condition did not
jibe.
Gloria opened one eye and watched
him unbeknownst. He let go her hand
and walked the floor.
She sat up in disgust, demanding
Don't you know what is the matter
with me?"
He shook his head meekly.
She cast her eyes up in despair and
said: I'm afraid you're too stupid a

mystery Of life and Its negative, death.
Pierpont Stafford had given his daugh-

had given his daughter Nell, life, the
same all beginning, all necessary gift
of Judge Freeman to his daughter
Lois.
Through the existences of these
three daughters Richard Freneau had
wandered like a handsome Don Juan,

ROOSEVELT LIKE
 LORD NORTHCLIFFE
Springfield Repuhlicanl

It is admitted on all hands that Lord Northcliffe, by his courage in calling attention through his newspapers to the muddling policies of Great Britain's leaders in the first few months of the war, brought about a change in Brit aims leadership and thereby saved the situation for the allies.
 Lord Northcliffe succeeded in getting himself almost universally anathema- tized, his newspapers stamped in the gutters of London and other big cities of Old England. But he also succeeded and this was the big thing he was after-in arousing King Georges sub- jects to the seriousness of the situation confronting them and to the absolute necessity for more energetic prosecu- tion of the war on behalf of the allies.
 What Lord Northcliffe was to Eng land in the early months of the war, Colonel Roosevelt is to America in the first year of her participation in the world conflict. He is calling attention to her blundering inefficiency, her ! costly procrastination in the matter of preparation. her palpable failure to do the thing that ought to be done in the time it ought to be done, in a way that is bound to arouse hi scountrymen to the seriousness of the situation con- | fronting them and to the necessity for more energetic prosecution of the war on behalf of the United States.

THE DILUTION OF SKILLED
 LABOR

''Dilution of skilled labor is one of the new phrases born of the war. It will take it's place in our vocabulary along with such words as tanks and camOuflage, says Motor Age.
 The expression "Dilution of skilled labor can be interpreted literally. Dilution is a thinning out process.
 Dilution is a much-used word and dilution is much used process. but it's application to skilled labor is now with us. It is a necessity born of the war It represents q new thought in industry.
 Dilution of skilled labor means mix ing unskilled and medium skilled labor with the skilled. In factory of 1000 skilled workmen take 200 out and mix in through the departments 200 semi skilled or unsllilled workmen and you have diluted skilled labor The semi skilled do the simplest jobs of the skilled. The skilled, relieved from these simpler tasks. give a part of their time to experimenting the semi skilled, and educating them, and bringing them up the ladder of skill faster than they normally would ascend, so that they. too soon can be classed as skilled workers.
 Take an example In a. large ma- chine shop with hundreds of men all working on lathes, drills, planes, grinders, presses. some lathes are handled easily. A new workman with few days training can do the job. This frees the skilled workman and leaves him free for higher jobs Little by little the invasion of unskilled workers is carried forward until soon half the shop eventually is unskilled

GREASY FORD AXLE

It is not uncommon experience with owners of Ford cars that when the lubricant in the rear axle has become thinned by long use, it tends to work its way out and be spattered all over the wheels and brakes. An easy cure for this is to drill a small hole 3-16 of an inch is about right, in the bottom of the axle housing on each side The thinned grease which gets to the ends seeps out through these holes. Care must be taken to place the holes high enough to allow enough grease for lub- ricating the differential gears and also they must not be placed too near the end of the different housing.

STATE SHIPPERS
 ASKED TO HELP TRANSPORTATION

In line with the government require- ment for maximum service from the transportation system, is the following interesting letter sent out as bulletin by the transportation committee of the Arizona Council of Defense to all of the chambers of commerce of the state:
 Our transportation committee re- ports that there is an unprecedented demand for freight cars throughout the country and advise that this demand is likely to continue during the period of the war.
 In view of the vital necessity of con- serving the freight car supply and en- ahling the carriers to effectually and efficiently perform the great task im- pt 0d upon them by war conditions, it seems desirable that they should have the Nost complete cooperation of all commercial organizations to further the heavy loading of all cars and to secure tho prompt release of all such cars by shippers and receivers of carload freight.
 With this end in view, we herewith suggest that you arrange the forma- ton of a local committee to take hold of the situation, and to acquaint the shippers and receivers of carload freight in your locality of the absolute necessity of rendering all possible aid in conserving the car supply, and in cooperation with the carriers elimin- ating all delays which cah possibly be avoided
 We would suggest that such commit tee include, if possible the secretary of your respective organization as chairman. and an agent of each carrier entering your city Through such an arrangement We believe such neces- sary data will be obtained as will en- able you to follow up and prevent un- necessary delays, and the misuse of cars may be stopped by appealing to the users of such cars to cooperate in this vital matter of car conservation as @ patriotic duty.

FRAGMENTSFROM
 FRANCE COME TO
 LAW LIBRARIAN

Mute messengers from the blood soaked battlefields of France. Worn, torn, wrecked and trampled bits of a soldiers accoutrement that have trav- trsed the ruin and destruction of the kaiser's war have reached Phoenix and are telling a story that cannot be written.
 There are only few pieces of equip ment, of little value even to junk man, but they bear the authentic marks of genuineness that bring to the soiled and stained scraps of steel and leather strange interest.
 There is a scrap of what once must have been the aluminium frame of Zeppelin.
 A package of contraband rubber.
 A Turkish bayonet.
 A Prussian rifle
 A German water bottle.
 A trench spade.
 A German knapsack.
 A German ammunition box.
 The lot of relics from the European battlefields were received yesterday by Con P. Cronin, law librarian at the state house, from the bureau of Brit ish War Exhibits for the purpose of exhibiting them to the people of Phoe- nix. The bureau os in charge of W. Macneile, professor in the University of Glasgow. The American represent ative is P. G. A. Smith who accom- panied the exhibit with the following l letter:
 Con P. Cronin,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 My Dear Sir:-Professor Dixon has forwarded us a copy of your letter on | October 27 and it gives us great pleas ure to cooperate with you as far as we are able, though unfortunately our eX- hibit is now booked up for some months ahead and we are, therefore unable to help you so much as we should like. We are, however, sending | you the following items. We hope to visit Phoenix with our complete British Official War Exhibit during the latter months of next year 1 when the writer hopes to have the pleasure of meeting you. We under stand that we are to be invited to visit your city by the Council of Ma tional Defense of Arizona or the local Red Cross.
 Very truly yours,
 "P. G. A. SMITH"
 An examination of the few small relics in the lot received by MT. Cronin yesterday gives some idea of the in- terest the complete exhibit promised for some time next year will arouse. | A lecturer is not needed to convince spectators that the battlefield relics have been through the hail of battle, for the bloodstains on some of them are easily discernable. On the knap- sack is written the name Antoine" The bit of Zeppelin framework is par ticularly of interest. The contraband rubber was mailed from Brazil when it fell into the hands of the British.
 The exhibit will be placed on view in prominent show window of the business street.

 England and France, as well as other belligerents, have found it necessary to carry this dilution of skilled labor to d very great extent. Shortage Of man power has been the spur to acton. There is not a machining job on any of the aviation engines made Tn Eng land that is not done by women. Every milling operation. every lathe operation, every drilling operation, every grinding operation. every inspection operation, in fact, the dilution of skilled labor has been carried so far by women that we can almost speak of the substitution

ing 6inch shells. in which the ratio of women to skilled man mechanics is 90 to l. In one explosive factory en- ployinS 11,000 there are 11,0O0 women.
 Women are used very largely in such careful manufacture as the breecb mechanisms of Howitzer guns. There is one shop in which every machine engaged on this work is operated by women. It is one of the best shops in England.
 While the dilution of skilled labor is a problem America has not had tc wrestle with up to the present, it is one of the big problems that it must meet in the next few months. The urgent demand for skilled workers in France is so great that it is only by the dilu- tion of skilled labor and the substitu- tion of women for men that it will be possible to keep our production where it should be
