quickly. She saw that had seen her
and raised her other hand with a
finger to her lips and an explanatory
glance at Whitney who was keeping
the others interested. Instantly, l
recognized the little vial which Craig
had showed into his waistcoat pocket.
That had been the purpose of his
whispered conference with her when
we arrived. said nothing, but de-
termined to observe more closely.
More coffee and more cigarettes
followed, always from the same box
which was now on the table. The
luncheon developed almost a real con.
versation. For the time, under the
spell of our hostess, we nearly forgot
that we were in reality bitter enemies.
Ny real interest, as time passed,
centered in Whitney and l could not
help watching him closely. Was it
a fact. or was it merely my imagina-
ton? He seemed quite different.
The pupils of his eyes did not seem
to be quite so dilated as they had
been at other times, or even when
he arrived Even his heart action ap-
peared to be more normal l think
1nez noticed it. too. There was none
of the wildness in his conversation,
such as there often had been at
other times.
Our party was prolonged beyond
the time we had expected. but, al
though he had much on his minG,
Kennedy made no move to break it
up. In fact, he did everything to en-.
courage it,
At last. however, the others did no
tice the time, and ] think it was with
sincere regret that the truce was brok.

among the activities pursued by the
w. c. I. Z. is the work for soldiers
and sailors, under the direction of the
Rev. Mary Sibbett. Report will be
made on the progress of this work at
the Thursday afternoon session. Mem
bers of the w. c. T. U. over the state
are working in conjunction with the
Red Cross IN supplying war materials
for the soldiers.
In NeoSno county $50 comfort kits
have been made, which have been APP
proved repeatedly by soldiers as the
most practical kit of the kind yet de-
signed. The design is the work of
Mrs. ]. E. Hargrave. the mother of a
soldier.
An effort will be made to affiliate
the VIC. T. L. with the Red Star,
national organization which plans to
do for wounded animals irH the war
area what the Red Cross does for SOL
diers. The Red Star is a department
of the American Humane society, and
will alleviate the suffering OF the
$500, 900 horses which have been call
ed into war service. Mrs. F. A. Par
sons of Neosho county is agitating this
quite new movement, and it is hoped
that a branch of the w. c. T. U. will

AS for the submarine campaign,
100000 tons of shipping had been

toward peace on the part of England
was discernible. A ratiOning system
for foodstUffS had not been even in
troduced, and no one was able to say
when the U-bCat would make England
more inclined for peace.
America cannot be forced to make
peace" Herr Goethein continued. I'VE
cannot force America to pay a war in

America must win the war, accord
ing to Dr. Frank L. Loveland who
spoke Monday night before the Cur
rent Topic club. America must fight
the Huns from now until the time
when they are on their knees he de-
clared.
France is in decline, Belgium is
buried in distress and Russia is lit
orally torn to pieces America is the
only whole nation left for the fight
and its up to us to win.
In his talk DIR. Loveland pictured
Belgium as the nation that has born
the brunt~ of the whole struggle. 1t
has been devastated, dismembered
and RACED. 1t was pictured as the
worm under the heel of war.

Recently he went into federal service

Loveland has come to Topeka from

Morning Grain siOseIp.
4 Furnis he'd by the Topeka Bohrd of Trad

Chicago Oct. 9.-The Herald says: The
government crop report made the corn
crop much larger and the oats smaller
than the private reports and what the trade
generally expected. On its face it was con
sidered as bearish on corn and oats as in
dicated record yields. Despite the large
supplies in the Interior holdings at prim-
airy markets and all loading points Of ac-
cumulation are small and the absence of
pressure of cash grain is a striking fea-
lure of the trade. A general disposition to
sell short on bulges exists among the
coarse grain traders but the bulls suggest
that the short sellers may have to reckon
with the farmer. Bears however say that
the farmer may not have good a chance
to sell his grain later in the season as he
has Mt present.
1t will be surprise to the trade to see
lower prices on all grains and especially
corn today in case there is any selling
pressure. Il was said by the bears that
the, short interest had been cut down and
with ii limited outside trade the sIowness
tends to create a bear feeling. There has
been persistent buying of oats future the
last few days by houses which generally
act for seaboard exporters. Those in a
position to know say they do not expect
the export demand will he aggressive
for a long time but that moderate bust
ness will be put when the opportunity pre-
seuts.
