She and the young man became bet

When Rodgers Warren first introduced
him mt their former home he had inn
pressed her favorably, largely because
Of her desire to like any one whom her
father fancied. She worshiped the
dead broker, and his memory to her
was sacred. She would have forgiven
and did forgive any wrong he might
haye dGne her, even his brothers APP
p0infmeDt as guardian, though that she
could not understand. Unlike Stephen,
who fiercely resented the whole affair
and said bitter things concerning his
parent, she believed he had done what
he considered right. Her feeling
against Captain Elisha had been based
upon the latter's acceptance Of that ap-
pOintment when he should have real
lied his unfitness. And his living with
them and disgracing them in the eyes
OF their friends by his uncouth country
ways made her blind to his good quail
ties
The Moriarty matter touched her
conscience, and she saw more clearly.

COrcoran Dunn termed him, an ZEN

did not accompany him on his walks

SHORTAGE HITS KNITTER

That the many millions of Red
Cross knitters may know the plans Of
that war time institution for future
knitting, George E. Scott, acting gen.
eral manager of the American Red
Cross, states that when the War In
dustries Board some time back ad-
vised the Red Cross that future pro-
duction of yarn would be greatly re-
duced, the organization Immediately
began to purchase knitting yarn and
today has in stock or on order 1,400,-
900 pounds. They hope to secure more
yarn from wool unsuitable for Gov
eminent uses, but have a fraction of
100000 pounds used last year. In
addition to the stock of yarn on hand:

tribution 100000 sweaters, $4,000
muffiers, 34S, 900 wristlets, 23S,000 he'll
NETS and 1,32S,OOO pairs of socks,
total of 3,674,000 articles. We are
hopeful, therefore, that these and such
additional garments as we shall be
able to make will enable us to meet
the more urgent requirements of our
men during the coming winter. In
this connection it will be of interest to
the women who have been knitting to
know that, from September 1, 1917, to
June 10. 1918, the Red Cross distribute
ed 5,S75,0O0 knitted garments to the
army and navy of the United States.
"Durign the same period $4,000
knitted articles were sent to the Red
Cross Commissioners in France and
Italy for distribution to soldiers, sail
ors and civilians. At the request OF

THE REPUBLIC MONDAY

1t is an interesting narrative which
is enclosed within these five reels OF
THE Girl From Bohemia" Alice, the
heroine of the story (played by Mrs.
Castle), is Bohemian resident of the
Latin quarter of New York city
which we may add for the benefit of
the uninitiated is situated within the
confines of that old world section of
the worlds most modern city, known
as Greenwich Village and Washington
Square.
Alice thinks she is a sculptress, and
she also thinks she is a Bohemian
Blu when a legacy in the shape of
moiety of the income upon $50,00O,OO
is beuueathed to her on condition she
shall jointly keep house with her
maiden aunt in the country, it does
not take Alice long to make up her
mind that rural life plus very COM
Portable income has charms which
transcend those of Bohemia sans a
bankroll
OF course her advent to the sleepy
country community of Maytown,
causes considerable perturbation,
especially as Alice brings along many
of her Bohemian dresses, and all of
her Bohemian ideas and ideals, and
she manages within short time to
arouse not little scandal.
OF course, as in all good screen
stories, everything comes out right in
the end. After many adventures,
some of which are thrilling enough
for Pathe serial, including an excit-
ing swim in a rough sea in order to
save the child of the village saloon
keeper, averting a strike in the ship
yards by making a rousing speech to
the hands and waving "Old Glory" in
their faces, after all these happenings
Alice and the right man are "irised
out" as their lips meet at the end
