There is no finer sight in this

alty-fa families bound by ties of
blood, cemented into one compact
band to promote and defend the
interests of the whole
The hour has struck when this
call is ringing clear and loud
above all others in the ears Of the
American people. Every city, ev-
cry town, every hamlet and every
community in the land has given
of its best beloved blood to swell
the expeditionary forces on the
battle fields of France These men
have gone to fight our battles.
They have offered their all in our
service. The blood tie holds them
firmly to the task which they are
dedicated to. We have the word
of the commanders that their sac
rifiee is eompIete-that the blood
loyalty is perfect.
But is theirs to be the only DEM

AN EMERALD FOR FAY

So it was irrevocable! Ned was to
marry Fay-little silly. selfish. mer-
cenary, unsubstantial Fay Summers.
Edith was at her inexhaustible mend
ing basket when her brother had come
skittering in to tell her, leaving q
light kiss on her cheek as he skittered
out again.
She felt SO tired in spirit that she
was tempted to make no resistance,
to let things take their course. But
soon the reaction came. Her woman
spirit babe her persist. Might she not
awaken Fay to what she must expect
of hardship and sacrifice in marrying
on nothing save a mechanics pay and
indefinite prospects?
Edith's delicacy recoiled from the
unpleasant task, thankless at best. un-
wise at worst For with sharp little
leap OF conscience it popped into her
mind that peyhaps this willingness OF
Fay to marry Edgar showed a loyalty,
a faith and confidence which Edith
herself was lacking Perhaps she was
wronging Fay. Perhaps Fay had more
character than she suspected
Well--she would find out! Stuf1ine
her unfinished sewing back into its
basket, Edith rose with briskness
of one wanting to get bad piece OF
work overwith as soon as possible.
AS she walked up the path to Lily
Blake's house she saw Fay on the
porch working a dolly. 1t was use

newspapers on which a kitten was
asleep. Edith picked up the startled
kitten and stroked its satin ears. She
decided diplomacy would be wasted
on Fay Summers.
