swered him as 1 drew myself to my
greatest height and gave the salute
which his old soldiers give to him at
that raising of the banner of the
cause that he had lost in his youth.
You young daredevil, you, I'm a
great mind to break every bone in
your body, as l have said before" he
said to me, but could see smile of
pride making a lightning of the
gloom in his countenance over the
trouble of his affairs of state. You
keep away from
Robert" was the interruption
made by my great beloved Gouvern-
eur Faulkner, upon you will fall the
task of making the plans for the en-
tertainment of the countryman OF
yours. The general and l will be too
| busy getting ready to meet them on
their own grounds to give any time
to that. Remember, they will have to
be shown the best grazing land in
the valley in motorcarS. When they
are done sizing us up we'll be ready
for them. The count and his secre-
taries will, of course, be entertained
at the Mansion, and you can make
arrangements at the hotel for the
rest of the suite. Also will you please

you confer with Mrs. Whitworth,
who, as the wife of the treasurer of
the state of Harpeth, while neither
the general nor l has a wife, must
be considered as the official social
representative of the state as to what
form the official entertainments must
take?"
And as he asked that question of
me my Gouverneur Faulkner did not
so much as glance at my uncle, the
General Robert, who gave an ex-
clamation Of contempt in his throat
as he began a reading of the two
papers which 1 had handed to him.
ALSO 1 suppose this means l must
give up all hope of services from that
| lfiy-up-the-creek ClendenninS," he
grumbled as he read.
II will do as you bid me, my

my excellent Buzz and the beautiful
Madam Whitworth," l made answer
to the question and command given
to me by the Gouverneur Faulkner,
and as 1 mentioned the name of that
| lady 1 lowered my eyes to the floor
| and waited for my dismissal. l did
| not want to look into his eyes, for l
! did not know even then if l might
not find that Madam Whitworth
there. 1 only knew that, whatever
she did or was to him, his honor was
inviolate.

There came a knock on the door,

her eyes softened as she saw his

She went to him all response, and
he drew her into hir arms. They
sat together on the balcony railing,
and Jean felt her heart lift magic

You're unhappy about Frances,
aren't you, dearest?" John ques-

Jean nodded.
You're wishing you were back on
the long road, aren't you?" John
questioned again, reading her
thoughts as if by magic.
Jean did not nod this time, but he
knew nevertheless and he drew her
closer.

WON'T DELAY CARS

Ottawa, Ont, Aug. 14.-After a
conference between C. a. Magrath,
fuel controller, and Sir Henry Dray-
ton, chairman of the Canadian Rail
way Commission, drastic orders were
issued yesterday compelling rapid
unloading and return of coal cars to
the United States. The step was
taken after the fuel controller had
pointed out that delay in returning
cars across the border would inter.
fere seriously with the supply of coal
necessary for the munition plants.

CLEVELAND, Dec. 15.-One hund-
red thousand men were out OF work
and hundreds of Cleveland's largest
manufacturing plants were smut down
today because of the shortage of coal.
The companies affected, many Of
them turning out rush orders of war
materials including shells, shrapnel,
motor cars. airplane parts, fuses, uni
forms, engines, and other war neces-
sites required by the government de-
pended upon the Cleveland Electric
Illuminating company for power.
Late yesterday the coal shortage
reached such an acute stage that the
Illuminating company shut off electric
currents to all big industrial plants.
One Of Two Things.
Inasmuch as the company furnishes
most Of the power used by the local
traction company and lights most Of
the electric lamps in the city it was
either matter of stopping street car
traffic and allowing the city TO remain
unlighted at night or Of curtailing in
dustrial power.
The idle manufacturing plants will
resume operations Monday morning.

The announced purpose of the naval
Investigation is to scrutinize past and
future naval expenditures and policies

Greed Is important, But Good Hens Of
Any Kind VIII Respond to Good Care.
AS it is better to have cold, dry
poultry house than a warm, damp one,
some means of ventilation should be
provided. A cloth curtain over an
opening has proved a very successful
method of ventilation.
Earth floors in poultry houses are
excellent, provided they are kept clean.
Except in very dry climates, however.
they are apt to be damp, Where an
earth floor is used it should be three
or four inches above the level of the
ground outside.
In interesting the boy in poultry
raising he should be taught the ad'
vantage of a pure bred flock, be en-
couraged to build his own poultry
house, and do for himself as much of
the other work connected with the
project as possible 1t may be fine

start even with poor equipment and
scrub flock is better than no effort at
all. The lessons learned in obtain

ing improvements will prove valuable.
The laying hen must have besides
grain and meal supply of animal
food and green food. This is neces-
sary for winter production. II there is
surplus of skim milk on the farm
it is an economical form of animal
food for poultry.
Homemade drinking fountains for
poultry may be as useful as more ex.
pensive ones. 1t is essential to pro-
vide clean water and to sterilize the
utensils frequently as a precaution
against diseases.
Winter layers cannot be expected
to produce many eggs when the prices
are high, if they are not housed in
comfortable quarters. If an old house
is to be used, drain the floor, replace
earth and litter with fresh material,
procure sufficient light and ventilation,
clean out all rubbish and disinfect

house, repair leaks In the roof, and
