Morrison Nails Lie.
Frank Morrison, secretary of the
A. F. of L., has nailed the lie of the
employers who started this word-of-
mouth panic. He calls on trade un-
ionists to stand fast for their rights,
and fight for their principles, and
mot be stampeded because profiteers
cry. w. W. and .eneuaies of the
government every TIME a demand is
made for living standards"
He told a crowd in New York that
"These low-wage employers cannot
scare us, and we will not remain 81
lent when they outrage every right,
as they did at Bisbee, where a So
called loyalty league deported over a
thousand workers suspected Of fav-
oring Organization"

Then, WIN concerted rush, the
besiegers OF that rocky citadel COW
cred the remaining distance and came
swnrining over the rough-hewn bat
Elements. The Laughing Mask threw
protecting arm about his slender
comrade and stood waiting for the
shock OF hand-to-hand conflict. But
even as communicating hands were
reached out toward the shrinking girl
there came the sound OF many feet
pounding along the ridge.
"Beat IL, the bulls are comm y
shouted one of the gangsters as d
group OF. flying figures charged down
upon them. Out Of that inferno of
raging fighters whose lurid oaths were
punctured by revolver shots and the
crash of heavy clubs on thick skulls,
two men detached themselves and
made quick dash for liberty. The
scar-marked fugitive, with two detec-
tives close ut his heels, succeeded In
reaching the highway. Here he seized
upon the motorcycle belonging to Da-
vid Manley, and the next moment It's
chugglng explosions woke the echoes,
as with flying leap he was in the sad-
die and rocketlng down the road.
The other refugee, who wore a vel
low mask, was honored by the hot
chase of the russet-faced Captain

somewhat pOrtly pursuer and lodged
around the glObular mass Of stone.
A little later that self-pOssessed
young woman was sitting peacefully
on the wide and shady veranda Of her
fathers home when David Manley,
still In his cycling tOgs, came up the
steps toward htr. In his arms was a
lumpish and w.ggling collie puppy.
Margory fixed on him stern look of
interrogation.
"What were you doing at Seven Oaks
hill this moruing?" she inquired
brusQuely.
Davy's eyes fell before the direct
gaze of his inquisitor.
81 haven't been near Seven Oaks hill
today" he replied slowly, after a lit
tie pause. 81 have been over to Aunty
Kicks ever since talked with you this
morning. l thought you might change
your mind about wanting Il puppy, so
picked out the best of the lot for
you"
AS Margery rose to her feet there
came into her face an expression of
intense scOrn.
"'This is the second deliberate false
hood you have told me-" she replied,
The Yale expositor., 1917-01-04

standing by her side. But when her
rescuer turned from gazing eau
tiOusly snd intently into tho valley II
was with an involuntary gasp Of sur
prise that she perceived his face was
covered by n yellow cambric mask,
"We are going to have fight on
our hands In a minute" he said quiet
ly. "Legar and his men are getting
ready to rush the place"
Almost as he spoke, a group of de-
termined and grimly silent figures,
each armed with formidable-loOking
revolver came storming up the peace
full hillside. The Laughing Mask, with
quick movement, drew his companion
to place of safety. Then he leaned
slightly over the natural stone breast
work ard leveled his black automatic
at the foremost of the oncoming ban
dts.
With the splteful crack of the pistol
that figure stopped short, wavered un-
certainly for n moment, and then
plunged headlong into the valley. From
that advancing line of gangsters came
a sharp fuslllade OF answering shots,
but the man in the mask seemed to
bear a charmed life. He continued to
pump his automatic in apparent indif-
ference TO the rain of bullets flattening
against the rocks about him. second
gunman spun about In his tracks, and
dropping heavily, caught on n projec-
tion, where he hung Imply suspended.
When the third OF Legar's evil sol
diery dropped his revolver, and with
howl of pain clapped his hand TO his
shoulder, his companions broke and
scurried for cover, followed by their
disappearing captain. Legar's attempt
to rally his demoraliZed forces TO Il
fresh attack was apparently futile, for
there followed n long and oppressive
silence. But as the Laughing Mask
warily raised his head for a brief re-
connoissance Of the situation, a bullet
whistling perllously close to his ear
gave warning that his hidden enemies
were decidedly on the alert.
He flung up his automatic for quicl,
shot at the sniper whom he saw half
concoaled behind n tree trunk. But
only Il dull click followed his pressure
on the trigger. Margerys defender
hastily explored his pockets, but his
search proving fruitless.
AS he turned to tell her OF the des-
perate situation confronting them. he
could not repress an exclamation of
startled surprise. For at this most
danger-fraught hour of her existence,
he saw Margery Golden apparently

isn't this n rather ill-chosen time
for such childish diversions2" he in
quired little sternly.
The preOccupied girl continued for
Il full moment to turn and twist that
ever-shiftlng mirror before she spoke.
"Thls childish diversion, as you call
IL may be the only means of saving
our lives" was her calm answer. ~
heard that click that meant your last
cartridge, and / am trying to hello
graph for help"
She resumed her quick movements
that sent the long beams of light ra-
dating out across the valley. Sud-
denly they saw an automobile filled
with passengers turn off the highway
and wind rapidly up the drive. They
saw the distant figures of the men as
they got out of that machine and start
ed to enter the house. Then the bulky
figure in the lead stopped abruptly and
concentrated his attention on that
faint spot of light flickering on the
side of the veranda. After moment
he turned and spoke excitedly to the
little group around him.
1t was apparent the stalwart police
captain had Interpreted those dancing
splashes of light into the frantic call
from Seven Oaks hill for badly needed
help.
Throwing aside his useless weapon.
the Laughing Mask seized n heavy
rock and hurled it down upon the adj
vancing group, now halfway up the
slope. lie followed this by another
granite prOjectile, and still another.
But IL was an easy matter for the at
tackers to dodge these clumsy mis-
siles, and 1t was evident that at best
only brief respite could be gained
by this medieval method of warfare.
One of the gangsters drew DELHI
crate bead on the exposed figure OF
the Laughing Mask, but Legar struck
up his arm before he could fire.
II want to snare those birds alive"
Margery heard him grimT announce
The Yale expositor., 1917-01-04

making each word stab, "and l do
not care TO accept a gift of any kind
from your hands" AS she finished
speaking the wrathful girl turned and
swept into the house, leaving n sad
dened young man absently holding n
sprawling collie puppy in his arms.
The Dice Of Chance.
David Manley was decidedly un-
happy. And his detected spirits were
due entirely TO the fact that he had
fallen under the scornful displeasure
of a certain adorable young woman
who had caught him In Il deliberate
and unwarranted falsehood.
Following his disastrous rout at the
battle of Seven Oaks hill, their one
armed enemy had seemingly declared
a truce, and now the gentle Mrs. Col
den, in the hope that it might prove a
distraction for the deeply brooding girl,
planned Il gay iswn fete, to which the
whole countryside was invited. Under
the stimulus of preparation for this
elaborate affair, Margery's dropping
spirits revived TO certain extent. But
in thinking that Legar would for long
relinquish his relentless purpose to re-
venge, they had sadly misjudged that
vicious master-crimlnal.
From certain inside sources he
learned Of the proposed festivities.
and at once decided the opportune
moment had arrived for him to strike
and strike hard. Among the pernicious
crew which did his bidding was n
swarthy-faced Neapolitan bomb-setter
known as Black Tony. Because Of
this mans procllvitles for high explo-
sives he was selected as the particular
instrument for the consummation of
Legar's Ubiquitous scheme.
A little later, in the Owls subter-
