great spectacle that the day had In
store and her own wonderful part In 1t,
For Madge, though twenty, had had
few breaks In the mOnotony of her life
with her old maiden aunt and older
grandmother. Now, though she knew
none Of the boys in Company B, she
looked forward with thrill to the fact
that she was one of the fifty pretty
girls who had been selected to wait
on them at table. OF her own volition,
she was also one Of the two hundred
housewives who had volunteered to
make apple pies for the six hundred
boys who were expected to eat them.
She walked very gingerly from her
grandmother's cottage on the outskirts
Of the town, hoping and half expecting
to meet someone she knew with an
automobile who would transport her
and her pies safely to their destina-
ton. She even thought she might
meet neighbor walking toward town
empty handed who would relieve her
Of the burden of one Of the pies. But
no such luck befell her. The only pers
son who appeared on the road that
led to town was man in the khaki
uniform Of Company B. Madge would
have liked to ask the man in uniform
to help her with one pie, for it was
slipping In her hand, and the string
that tied it was loosening.
OF course, her impulse to ask the
man in khaki for assistance was only
fleeting, for Madge had been warned
against these men. Though her grand
mother had consented reluctantly that
Madge help wait on them at the ban
quet, she had warned her emphatically
not to smile at them, even If they
smiled at her. Her aunt warned her
especially not to speak to them, ex-
cept, of course, as it was necessary in
waiting on them, and then but briefly.
But the pie was slipping, and when
the tall, well-built man in khaki stood
beside her with ONtstretched hands to

Pie Lady

When Company B left StantOwn you
might have supposed the greatest pro-
cession Of the war was that Of the
khaki-clad young men of Company B,
with their splendid band playing, as
they marched, in the glorious autumn
sunlight, through the main street of
that old town. True enough, 1t was
spectacle for which farming folk from
the adjoining county, and perhaps
some folk from larger cities, as well,
journeyed to old StantOwn. But
other companies just as splendidly
drilled and equipped as Company B
had left other old towns, just as proud
as Stantown; so there was nothing ex-
actly unique in that procession.
The really remarkable procession
was the procession of the pie-laden
ladies of old Stantown through the
the marching of Company B. AS last
farewell to the boys of Company B,
feast was to be spread on rough, i'm
prOvised board tables in the larger
hall in the town. Though a caterer had
been summoned to supply the main
courses of this feast, it had been de-
cided that the ladies of Stantown, for
generations noted for their crisp, de-
liciOus apple pies, should contribute
the sweet course of the banquet.
And so the pies came. They were
baked bright and early the day of the
banquet, and scarcely had they cooled
before they were ON their way in the
hands of their housewifely bakers,
maids or children to the hall where
they were later to be devOured. To
carry one pie is comparatively easy,
even when it is still warm. But to
carry two, or even three, pies requires
caution and gingerliness of gait that
could not fail to mark it's possessOr
that morning as pie contributor.
Most Of the pies were delivered at the
hall without mishap, but here and
there scattering Of crisp pie dough
and apples that sent up tempting,
savOry fragrance, even in it's ruin,
showed where mishaps had occurred.
Two belated pies were carried in the
outstretched hands Of Madge Maddox,
crisp and sweet in holiday white, and
flushed with the excitement Of the

When Lauretta's parents bought the
old farmstead in suburb in Long Is
land, on the main road to the city, and
moved bag and baggage out to it, Lau-
retta herself was perhaps even more
delighted than they were.
Although she was city girl and
fond of city life and music and all
the arts, still nature, as revealed In
the country, lent much toward COM
pleteness in life to her. She loved
prOwling about lanes and ancient land
marks, and finding out, as far as pos
sible, what kind of people inhabited
the regions she explored before she
had found her way there. Lauretta
had visions of one day becoming a
famous writer, and was constantly on
the lookout for plots and mysteries to
solve. The country, she felt, might af-
kept her eyes open and her brain from
going to seed.
The old farm was more or less d.
lapidated when the Carsons took pos
session of it, but the grounds were
lovely and the place would in time be
a wonderful home.
The small, brOken-dOwn mail box
that stood on a post at the gate was
the first thing that attracted Lauretta s
roaming eyes. 1t was so foreign to
anything she had seen in the city that
she fell straightway to wondering
whether or not the district had free
delivery and whether or not that old
box was obsolete. Perhaps there were
etterS in it. Lauretta resolved to
make that wooden box one Of her first
interests. She would have to watch
continually to find out if postman
collected from it and whether or not
people dropped letters in it. There
was no sign to tell if it were or were
not still used by the town people. The
house was so far from a post office
that Lauretta was inclined to think
the wooden box on the post at her
gate was still a part Of the mailing
system.
And while Lauretta was wondering
about the old box, Jimmy Gains was
fretting and fuming because Blanche
Markham had answered his letter of
love with silence. Six long weeks ago

Those Who
Have Become of
Age Since June

WASHINGTON. April 26.-The
house late Wednesday adopted the
senate resolution for the registration
for military service of young men
men who have reached the age Of p
years since June ., last. The meas
ure now goes to conference.
An amendment offered by Rep.
Hull of Iowa, and adopted 119 to
81, provides that men registered
under the bill shall be placed at the
bottom of the classes to which they
may be assigned.
The house sustained the military
committee in striking out a pro-
vision as it passed the senate which
would exempt from registration
those eligibles who have entered
medical or divinity schools since
June 3 last.
Rep. Kahn of California, ranking
republican on the military commit
tee. told the house the proposed new
registration would place from $780,
600 10 100000 new registrants
available for military service. In
that connection he recalled that
Germany recently called into serv-
ice its class of 1919, consisting of
approximately $780, OO men.
Chairman Dent OF the military
committee opposed the amendment
of Mr.. Hull. He said he understood
it is the plan of the war department
20 place the newly registered at the
bottom OF the respective classes
unless something unforeseen occurs
to prevent. but did not believe it
proper to tie the hands of the de-
partment by an amendment which
would require hat action.
Mr.. Kahn also opposed the
amendment and declared there are
thousands of young men now under
Il who volunteered at the begin
ming of the war and who now are
serving in France.

POLICE PREVENT RESCUE
Famous Irishwoman and Chairman of
Meeting Taken to Headquarters,
But Former Is Not Detained-T. 2.
OConnOr in Washington.

San Francisco, April 25.-Agents OF
the Department of Justice last night
broke up a meeting addressed by Mrs.
Hannah Sheehy- Skenington, widow of
a leader of the Sim Fein rebellion in
Ireland, forcibly removed her from the
platform, and detained the chairman
of the meeting, William Short. A pa
troll wagonload of police scattered sew
eral gatherings before their attempt to
rescue Mrs. SkcfngtOn and Short
could be put into execution.
Mrs. Sket1ingto1 was scheduled to
speak in a downtown auditorium, but
persons who went to the building were
turned away at the doors, the eXpla-
nation being that agents OF the build
ing, acting under tine instructions Of
the Department. of Justice, had denied
her the use of the premises.
Later obtaining another hall in a
different section OF the city, Mrs.
Skeffington had spoken half an hour
against conscripton in Ireland when
agents of the Department of Justice
escorted her to the sidewalk.
Then, according to the authorities,
Short and a crowd endeavored not to
permit the meeting to be disrupted.
Accompanied by Mrs. SkeffingtOn, he
was taken to the police station, where
he was booked en- route to the Z. S.
marshal's office.
Mrs. Skeffington was detained at the
station until the crowd had dispersed.
She then was released.
The meeting which Mrs. Sllef1ington
was to have addressed at a downtown
auditorium was called by the People s
Council Of America.
