KENYON ROBERTS AND HIS WIFE
CALL UPON. RUTH AND
Brian,
CHAPTER LII.

CHAPTER LII.
That very night Ruth nad her wish,
Mr.. and Mrs. Roberts called about
o. clock, They were both delightful, as
Ruth afterward said to Brian, and that
she had not been mistaken in believing
they would be, pleased her immensely
Brian and Mr.. Roberts had natural
" drifted into a sort of business talk.
so leaving Ruth and Mrs. Roberts TO
get acquainted, Ruth told her how she
had wished they would call. Told it so
naively that Mrs. Roberts wondered how
she could be so charmingly girlish and
yet be business woman.
- just knew they would be NIGEL "
Ruth exclaimed enthusiastically when
they had left. She would have been sur
prised and pleased, could she have heard
Mrs. Roberts say TO her husband: "She
is perfectly lovely, Kenyon, l am sure
we shall be the best Of friends. I"
Equally interesting were the remarks
Of the two men.
'SRather an interesting chap" Brian
had said when Ruth questioned him

Brian.
1t was fortunate for Ruth that she

at this time, 1t kept her from thinking
too constantly Of Mollie King, as almost

praise Brian had ever given her for all
her hard work in making the apartment
so attractive.
81 think it is the only kind of thing
L am good for" she smiled wryly
Brian s refusal to give her the least
credit or encouragement always had hurt
her more than he dreamed.
One evening Brian, restive, because
things at the office were so slow, pro-
posed they 60 and call on the Curtis s.
Ruth readily agreed. She really liked
both Mr.. and Mrs. Curtis, and would be
glad to see them, and they still owed
their party call for the dinner party to
which they had been invited.
''I am So glad to see yOu," Mrs.
Curtis said, insisting that Ruth lay off
her wraps. Gwen have a game of
bridge or something.
They talked while before playing
then sat down at the tabe.
''By the way" Mrs. Curtis said, dur
ing one of the times when she was
dummy, 81 think you are the most gen
erous woman ever have seen."
Ruth caught Mr. Gurtis's annoyed
look, but his wife; oblivious, continued;
"I wouldn't t be as generous with Mr.
Curtis.u t.s-sssiss1
"When was I generous? I don't un-
derstand," Ruth said, as she finished
playing her hand.
"I call it mighty good in you to let
Mr.. Haekett run around with Mollie
King when you are away. She was in
the other day, and she said that she
had a wonderful time all the week. I
scolded her, but she said you knew all
about it, that Brian had told YOU
"Certainly 1 didl" Ruth answered
wondering when Brian had seen Mollie
to tell her he had confessed being with
her while she, Ruth, was away, "Why
shouldn't he?" she added, rather enjoy
ing Brian's embarrassment. He had
flushed duly red, and looked terribly
"Oh. l don't knowl but not many

ANOTHER U-DOAT
DRIVE EXPECTED
ON TROOP SHIPS
Authorities Believe Effort
Doomed To Failure And
No Alarm Felt
By Raymond clapper

Omitted Press staff correspondent
Washington, Oct. S.-Realizing that
Germany is likely to start a desperate
U-boat drive against transports and
troop ships if her peace offensive fails,
American naval officials and British
First Lord of the Admiralty Geddes
began comforting here today over COM
bative measures.
Indications point to the loosening
of practically every U-boat in the Teu-
ton service against the allied supply
lines.
However, authorities believe that
this effort, like its predecessors, is
doomed to failure, on the whole, be-
cause of reduced U-boat efficiency.
Factors making the forthcoming
campaign less dangerous than previous
as follows:
1-Personnel of U-boats is disrupt
ed so much that submarines are now
rated as only one fifteenth as effect
i've as at the start of the war.
&Submarines have been driven
from the coast and must operate far
out at sea, where their prey is more
scattered.
3-They have. been forced to leave
the channel bases and operate around
the North sea, reducing their effective
mileage one third.
fDefensive armament and the con-
voy system have made successful at
tack more difficult.
A larger number of German subma-
rines are now operating than at any
time during the war and the construc-
ton is believed to be advancing stead
lily.
Because of the heavy protection Civ

America, the work of hunting down

CAUSE is DESPERATE.

Th position of the Central Powers is critical in the
extreme and nobody knows the situation better than the
military rulers of Germany That they are trained in the
science of war and are thorough soldiers who has
fOlowd the course of the war doubts for moment The
men around the kaiser upon whom he has leaned and
whose advice he has taken are military men, and they
have doubt informed him of the hOpeessness of the
struggle.
Hence the condescending "offer of peace to my en-
emies."
The allies are numerically stronger than the Ger
mans and their allies and since Marshal Foch placed
in supreme command they have made no mistakes and
have taken full advantage Of their strength Already
Bulgaria has surrendered and Turkey is founderng in
hopeless despair Grave is the situation the west
'front.' it is still more serious in the east The abandon
ment by the Hungarians OF Albania, which bor
drs Serbia the west, has undoubtedly been under
taken for the purpose Of reinforcing the Teutonc line in
northern Serbia. Dramatic action by the allies is prob
able in this sector and might lead to invasion of Hun
gary The fact that the allies have secured full of
Bulgarian territory for military purposes brings them
within 35 miles of Hungarian territory at the northwest
ern corner of Bulgaria
This intervening area is through Serbian territory,
leading to the famous iron gate which marks the passage
way over the Danube into Hungary. movement by the
allies through the iron gate would compel the Germans
and Austro Hunga1ans to evacuate Rumanla and con-
cnrae for defense Of the Hungarian grain and CATTLE
lands These are the principal sources of food supply for

overtake AustriaHngary if the allies could reach the
Magyar plains.
Tn unconditional surrender of the Hapsburgs might
even be brought about by the development Of serious
threat against the wheat lands without the actual accom-
plshment of conquest.
The reported capture of Nish by the Serbians puts
the allies astrde the main railway leading through north
ern Serbia to Belgrade the capital Operations along this
railway would have as their objective the rescue of all
that remains Of Serbia in the enemy's possession.
The recapture of Belgrade, which borders Hungary
would put the allies within 200 miles of Budapest A
movement toward the Hungarian capital however, would
not include in its sweep the occupation Of the Hungarian

with to some extent and the actual
destruction of U-boats has probably
decreased, although the effectiveness
of the submarine has been reduced at
the same time.
British airmen, dropping an average
of seven tons of explosives daily over
the submarine bases, forced their aban-
donment.
Submarines are now operating out
of Wilhelmshaven, near Heligoland,
but they are forced to go out through
the North sea, cutting over 80 per cent
from their effective cruising radius.

WHERE WILL THE RETREAT END?

1t is evident that the Germans have put up the most
desperate fight they capable of along the Hinden-
burg line in order to back up their offer of peace They
desired to convince their foes that the struggle would be
long and bitter In the end however, this very defense
of the line may prove their undong since their great losses
will leave them too weak to make successful stand at
any line in the of the present positions with vic
torious nemy pressing close on their heels
The German high command, desirous of holding the
allied forces the Hndenburg line in order to influence
peace negotiations suited Fochs strategy exactly He
wanted the Germans to stand and fight until their re-
exhausted and no doubt this very thing has
occurred They have evidently pressed every available
man into rviceand they must give up the defense line
in spite of this fact
When the great retreat really begins where can it
be stopped for any length of time? That is the question
that is bOthering the German high command
beaten, retreatng army must have strong, fresh
reserves to fall back upon in order to make successful
stand in new positions Apparently the Germans have
exhausted the greater part not all of their reserves in

will be fortunate indeed if it does not degenerate into
disastrous rout before the Rhine is reached

EvAP0RATED MILK FOR ARMY
Federal Food Inspectors Watch Fac
tories Making Product-Much
Being Shipped Overseas.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
Federal food inspectors Of the Unit
ed States department Of agriculture
are giving special attention to fac
tories where milk is condensed or
evaporated for use Of the allied
armies and for consumers at home.
Condensed or evaporated milk is q
most important article Of food even In
peace times. 1t is used by bakeries
and confectioneries, and in feeding
babies and the sick, as well as being
used as general substitute for fresh
milk wherever the raw milk cannot be
obtained In sufficient quantity or pur-
ity.
In time Of war, evaporated milk be-
comes a necessity, because 1t can be
transported with ease and will keep "a
reasonable time under conditioner
where it Is impossible to obtain orr
keep fresh milk. AS much as 80 per
cent of the output Of many large fac
tories is being shipped overseas for
the use Of the allied armies.
Inspectors examine the sanitary
condition of factories where milk Is
condensed or evaporated, sterilized
and canned. Samples Of the raw milk
as received at the factories are taken
for analysis by chemists and bac-
teriologists to see that ii Is clean and
wholesome and that 1t possesses the
proper proportion of butterfat and 9TH
er ingredients. The processes of evap-
grafton. sterilization, and canning are
studied; samples of the finished evap-
Grated product are taken for examina-
ton in order that 1t may be deter
mined whether the evaporated milk
has been condensed to the proper con-
stituency, contains the right food ele-
mcnts and Is clean and wholesome.
The contents of the cans are weighed
and compared with the amount stated
on the labels. The labels on the cans
are critically studied to see that there
IS no misbranding or false statements
made regarding the quantity. the quail
ity, or the strength Of the evaporated
milk.
Inspectors Of the various states 'co-
operate with the federal food inspec-
tors in this work. The federal food
and drugs act applies only to ship
ments of foods that enter interstate
or foreign commerce. State inspectors
have Jurisdiction over products made
and sold wholly within the state.
The joint authority of the federal
and state inspectors often enables
them, working together, to correct
abuses which either working alone
could not reach. Adulterated or mis-
branded condensed milk, When shipped
into Interstate or foreign commerce,
may be seized under the federal food
and drugs act, and the manufacturer
or other responsible party may be
prosecuted under the criminal sections
Of the law. The state food inspectors
have authority, under the law of some
states, to require insanitary factories
to close until put into sanitary condi-
ton.
Evaporated or condensed milk, as
defined for the guidance of the officials
In enforcing the food and drugs act,
must be made from whole, fresh, clean
milk, and contain not less than 25.5
per cent Of total solids, and not less
than 7.8 per cent of milk fat.
