Moritz stared blankly. bewildered and

young man emphaticaly, and he turned
on his heels and marched out OF the

Chiding himself for a fool. Jerry
walked swiftly up the block to where
his chauffeur had been told TO wait. He
was leaving the district In the same sort
had possessed him when he departed
from the Lafayette Club three days be-
fore. londer was the club building now.
Jerry stopped and looked at It curt
street TO the corner where Sylvy had
pointed out her fathers grocery store,
and he stood moment contemplating
the spot. as hoping that the girl herself
might appear A sight OF her would
once more have sharpened the dulled
edge Of his interest In the citizenship of
the river wards. But Sylvy did not ap-
pear.
Remembering. however, that IT had
been his intention to find out something
more about the Girl Jerry abandoned
his purpose to enter the automobile and
strolled on past Il and across the street
There seemed a general absence OF those
figures whose presence would have made
the scene familiar. There was no Sylvy.
no Kelley. not even n Alaldono in sight
Hesitating a moment. Jerry mounted the
two steps which led into the neat-look-
ing little store.
a heavy person with complacent beard
and a suspicious eye stood behind the
counter, weighing out some dried fish for
a shawled woman who watched the
scales warily. Coarse. sensual SELFISH

In a direction that was probably kitch-
onward.
Something about that furtive nod and
the air of discreet Importance which RAJ
chefs manner took OH aroused Jerry's
curiosity, but he managed to conceal
that mental state until the woman re-
appeared. bearing a tray on which were
set four tall glasses containing AN amber
nuid with a frothy. foamy collar Jerry
gazed IN amazement.
"My sister keep the restaurant" ex-
plained NORTH. with a nod toward the
closed door. "But we keep the beer"

But that is Illegal. That is bribery"
Jerry's manner expressed a violent sense
OF outrage. as he seized the opportunity
to supply something which was lacking
in the education of this little Jew.
"Oh, I should not do so no more" as
when comes the collection man. my sister
would say to him, ! got to pay you no
more money. Mister Archer IN friend OF
mine. You sehtart something 10 you

Jerry stood up In the intensity of his
horror. at this revelation of new depths
of moral blindness.

stinctively and felt a fresh wave of sym
pathy for Sylvy. The customer paid for
her fish and departed.

Kelly. not .mpolitely, but with great sin,
certy, Excuse me. hut you couldn't

They've got the oriental point OF view.
They're Asiatics virtually and I amt
ever able to make 'cm out for sure"
Recalling Rosenscweig, Jerry's im-
petuous mood was tempered somewhat
by this warning.
"But AurentslSy has been robbed by
Maldono of his only property. his store.
and that by skillful use of the ma
chinery of law" he argued.
You got II right" assented Kelly. but

"Ych. And they all quit when they

SUGAR RESTRICTIONS
PREVENT BOARDING

That manufacturers will not be per.
mitted to buy sugar from retailers
only under special permit, is the sub
stance of an order received from the
state food administrator Saturday by
Harry Gilbert, Wayne county admins
traitor. The order says:
mo retail dealer shall ship or de-
liver sugar to any person engaged In
the business or manufacturing, bot
ting or preparing products in which
sugar is used, until he has received
from such purchaser certificates duly
Endorsed by the buyer and issued to
him by the federal food administrator
for the state"
Gilbert said that this order was
issued because manufacturers have a
tendency to go to three or four diff
ferent retail dealers and buy four or
five pounds of sugar in each place as
though they were ordinary consumers
This order will put a stop to such a
practice.

Junior Red Crossers
at Cambridge Busy

CENTERVILLE, Ind. May 25.-The
junior Red Cross of the Cambridge
City schools. under the direction of
Miss Mode Brown of Centerville, has
completed it's work for the school
year. The society has been organized
since January, and has membership
of fifty-one pupils, most of them only
ten and eleven years old. They raised
more than $40 with which to buy sup
plies and have made the following ar
ticles
Two dozen hospital bags, one am
bulance afghan, one and one-half yards
by two and one-half yards composed
of 1875 six-inch blocks, small COM
fort composed of 80 blocks, twelve
pair of twelve-inch wristlets, five pair
of five-inch wristlets, and one pair OF
socks, the last being knitted by an
eleven-year-old boy. During the re-
cent Red Cross drive they raised $40
by contributions and by selling paper,
old iron, ETC. The fifth grade also
stood at the top in the thrift stamp
sale, having sold $1,043.5o worth of
stamps.
