Bailey Willing to Run

Former Senator Bailey indicated on
his arrival tonight that he would per-
sonally go on the ticket as candidate
for Governor or United States Senator
though he refused to commit himself
absolutely until the opening of the con
vention. He said, however, that he
would sacrifice his personal desire to
stay out of politics if his candidacy
would result in success for the party.
"Since Thomas Jefferson's own party
has repudiated the fundamental princ-
Piles of dem ocracy," said Senator Bailey
tonight, 81 believe the United States
is standing in the shadow Of great
menace. Like every other true Demo
crat, will do what | can to call this
country to halt and to turn it back to
those sacred principles of government
for which our forefathers fought If it
becomes necessary | believe every true
citizen will sacrifice his personal inter
ests for the good of the cause"
Supporters Of the new party ex-
pressed the opinion tonight that the
convention would insist that former
Senator Bailey head the ticket. They
pointed out that he had never been
beaten by popular vote in his state
and urged that the bitterness toward

meeting once each month. At this
time modern methods will be dis
cussed and great assistance will be
given to many of these women who

which has been given them by the
men in charge of the Goodman, Co

eral Cigar Factory and the Headlight
overall Factory in granting them the
free use of their noon hour during

A call for assistance in volunteers
for teaching in Woodbridge has been
issued. A person with spare time and
talent in that direction to act as su-
pervisor of parent teacher assocIa-

needed, as is also a volunteer to take

giving advice that night that might

looked at her. Carol was not quite
twenty and looked even younger, but
she had lived for a time with an older
sister whose unhappy marriage had
FINAL ended in a divorce court. In
her frequent attacks of rebellious
misery the older sister told the young
er one things that even sophisticated
New York girls rarely know. Carol
felt she possessed the wisdom of the
world, and longed to impart some of
it to her friend. But she did not
know how to get about it.
They simply didn't understand
each other, Sis and her husband, -
she summed it up. isis was cross
when she "a tired, and fretted: he
got furious and said nasty things in
return, then they quarreled, and quar-
relied more on top Of that and finally
he began finding sympathetic women
who didn't nag him. If mother had
been aliv she could have come around
with some of her sense re-
marks and set things right in no
time. And Sis could have talked out
her unhappy moods to her and gone
home feeling soothed and cheerful.
But mother died years ago. And your
mother she stopped suddenly, feel

The local board of the International

Love is conceded 20 be the deepest
of human instincts, the n which de-
termines the most important events
in the lives of men and women, which
makes them saints or sinners, rulers
of earth or prisoners of misfortune,
Love is held 10 be. also, a transient in
stinct, by many modern writer's.
That line or thinking made me ex-
tremely uncomfortable, but l couldn't
avoid it, in the light of Benjie's and
his fathers fault, and my husbands
temptation.
1t was wonderful to realize that
love shapes human conduct. it was 50
wonderful. so satisfying that 1, a bride
couldn't possibly believe love to be q
passing emotion, except occasionally.
But, looked at in the light Of the
modern theory, how much depended
upon my husbands attitude toward
the advance mad by katherine Mil
Ter, More than my poor heart was al
stake. If Bob failed me. my faith in
love itself was Post forever.
Scruples concerning the ethics Of
my plan to have Bob elope with the
lady didn't bother Mr.. Morrison al
all. The detective listened with q
vast delight in the plot. He said that
IL Bob could locate the child by agree
ing to meet Miss Miller in Mexico,
leaving the town to be named by her,
then the plan was good. In his esti-
nation it was a poor plan only in case
it failed!
The girl would give Bob the name
Of the place which was uppermost in
her mind almost Involuntary, he
thought. She wasn't highly educated,
probably. Such pretty women seldom
were, he had observed that they didn't
need to be. Probably her knowledge
of the geography of Mexico was ex-
tremely limited. If she wasn't given
much time to think-was just jollied
along-any man would know how to
do it-prObably she would mention
the name of the town which was hid
den in her s~ub-conscious mind. And
that, very likely. would be the name
of the town to which she had sent the
child. Certainly the scheme was
worth a try-out.
SO Morrison explained. repeating
his idea sagely and dragging it out to
a great length.
Bob having plenty Of time to revolt,
wouldn't promise to do his share. He
would call on Miss Miller again-to
this he a~ssented almost too readily to
please me-and he would comb Mexi-
co from the Rio to the peninsula In
search of Babs, but he couldn't so fan
forget his own honor as a gentleman
he couldn't coax Miss Miller into
n mock elopement.
"EIope with her in earnest then!
don't care!' I flung at his before then
all. OF curse I did care as only @
bride could possibly care, but at tbs
moment no possible sacrifice seemed
too great to make for hat helpless
baby's sake.

room. But after all, her mother had
wanted an elaborate ceremony, and
the least she and Harry could do
was to comply.
She had told Harry, half seriously,
that a big wedding mean a lot Of
gifts towards the furnishing Of their
new home. And now the gifts had
come. There were wonderful en-
broidered linens and beautifully pat
termed silverware; there was a set
of six valuable etchings. The brides
maids had laughingly agreed to give
her a kitchen shower instead of the
lingerie shower planned. But this
was as far as Louise's practical
vaguely, that their new home would
need hundreds of such articles as
beds, mattresses, chairs, and, as Lar
ry said tables to set the silven on.
She called to her mother.
After we leave on our trip" she
said. Il wish you would send some
one up in the attic and pack up
there-all the furniture we used to
have in this house when 1 was a
baby"

Louise stood up, weary but patient,
while the woman slipped over her
head the exquisite creation OF satin
and rare old lace which several
later said had "cost a

cushion on the floor, fairly crowed
with delight at its beauty, and Mrs.

And then suddenly Louise closed
her eyes and swayed, and fell in an
unconscious, heap amid her hnery-
And when she regained conscious
ness, she was in bed and alone in
her room, and Carols voice reached
her, indistinctly from some other
part of the house:
II knew it was coming" she heard
her say, And it's a good thing; for
now she can't rehearse the wedding,
and she can have the whole evening

Mrs .Driscom's voice sounded cur
iously meek.
"The idea of 'rehearsing' a we'd

on. IT'S just like an entertainment

was so human, 50 sympathetic, 50
lovable that it was a comfort to feel
his dependable arm around me.
Morrison laughed as if he were try
ing TO overlook a disagreeable domes-
tic episode.
Bob flashed at me Indignantly!
You don't know what you are say
ing!" Then he relapsed into one OF
his ~silences and remained in 1t the
rest Of the day.
But in the evening he dressed to
make another call upon our lovely
neighbor. He moved with an alacrity
which irritated me, but we didn't dis
cuss his visit as we had the others.
I got through the hours OF his ab-
sence by darning his socks! Any aver
age bride would express herself in the
same way under similar trying condi-
tions-would put her incest stitches

Witches And Sb00kS

OF course, no Halloween gathering
true to form without witches, spooks,
candles, diving for apples and fortune
telling wizards. But here are some
suggestions as to how to marshal the
ghosts, spooks, and witches to get the
most fun.
First Of all, Halloween requires
special decorations. The whole house
may be decorated at extremely low
cost and yet deliberately. Get out into
the country and bring in quantities of
autumn leaves n g~oldenrod. With
plenty of orange and black tissue pa
per and a few pumpkin lanterns, the
whole place can be made very festive
indeed.
Spooks and Goops
Invitations should be sent out about
a week before the party. Ask a num-
Der of girls to be "spooks," some to
be "goops," white-the usual garm
made out and other ghosts. Ghosts
are all of a sheet and pillow case. The
COOP" costume is accomplished with
dark skirts fastened at the waist and
caught over the head. t the waist
line a stick is fastened to form arms
on which to hang a sweater which
reaches to the floor. This gives the
effect of a queer little body and an
enormous head.
During the evening the ghosts,
spooks and goops should be very
busy; also other goops may dance and
do clever stunts. At the front door as
the guests arrive, one of the ghosts
should be stationed to receive people
in the dark. She must shake hands
with everybody-not a soul be allowed
to escape her clammy. cold hand.
This is really an DID cotton glove
stuffed with boiled rice and kept on
ice for several hours.
Witch'S Dungeon
After the ghost, still in the dark. the
guest is confronted with the spook,
who is armed with a bellows. She
springs out suddenly and blows fierce
blasts in the face of the unsuspecting
guest. Then the goops appear and
lead the now loudly protesting guests
in the dark through the witch's dun
geon. Here they must climb over OBJ
stacles. crawl through narrow open
ings and walk ten feet on a piece OF
rubber hose!
When all the guests have met the
ghosts, spooks and goops, the witch
appears. She is director of festivi-
ties.
The whole evening should be cram
med full of stunts and games and
tricks. Ducking for apples, fortune
telling, peeling apples without break
ing the peel, so your wish will come
true, doughnut biting, are all fun.
