Yne in the family. Everything would
y be bright at home again, Julia would
give up her stupid old work in the
hospital, there would be n wedding
aome time soon and she, Lucy. would
be maid of honor. Lucy thought Julia
kensible to forgive Dan. and she thor
eughly sympathized with him because
she believed absolutely that story he
bad concocted about having discovered
Zoo late that it was Julia he wanted
after all.
However. in spite of the fact that
phe saw Julia so seldom, Lucy was
beginning to believe that something had
happened to her sister. In Lucy's
mind things were not going smoothly.
She, too, felt the change in Julia; she
felt that Julia thought too much. and
It made her impatient with her sister.
Lucy knew, too. that Dan was not
aappy. Often he looked tired and har-
tssed when he should have been over
Soyed. Lucy could not understand it.
When;~ too, there had been nothing said
Rbout the wedding. Lucy had hoped
1t would be soon, in fact, she had cx
pected that it would. 1t would be an
advantage to have Julia married and
settled in home of her own. Lucy
imagined herself invited there fre- :

entertain.

left Washington six weeks ago. The
president took with him a very
small party, including Henry White.
General Bliss and Rear Admiral
Grayson.
The performance was put on in
gala fashion and the audience APP
parently was a holiday one. Most
of those present obviously came for
two things-to see the president of
the United States and to hear the
opera.
President Wilson and his party
occupied one of the principal boxes.
When the president entered he re-
ceived a tremendous demonstration.
The Star Spangled Banner was sung
and then the Marseillaise, after
which the performance began.
Once between the acts the presi-
dent and Mrs. Wilson went behind
the scenes and shook hands with the
principals of the chorus and ballet.

HOG ALLOTMENT
WILL Be CUT 100
CARS THIS week
Monday Receipts to Be Held
at $50 Cars If Possible;
Packers Killing to
Full Limit.

The hog allotment for the coming
week will be reduced to l,400 cars
to balance the excess of 100 cars
shipped in last week over the 1880
limit. This reduction was decided
on at a meeting yesterday of the
sterilization committee with HI. L.
Snider, assistant terminal manager
for the railroad administration.
To secure immediate relief from
the congestion due to this excess
shipment, it was decided to reduce
the Monday receipts to $50 cars if
possible. Orders to this effect will
be given the roalroads Immediately.
On Friday the pens. alleys and
shutes were filled with hogs, with
an overflow in the sheep barns.
Conditions on that day were said
to have been the worst ever ex-
perienced in the hog division This
accumulation is largely due to light
weight hogs, which we're not in de-
mand. Over 5000 hogs were I'M
sold at the close of business yes
. terday. .....
Receipts Heavy.
Hog receipts for the week were
next 10 the heaviest in the history
Of the yards. Approximately 1872
900 hogs were on the market. The
record was 132,553 head for the
week ending February II, 1917.
Packers believe that if the l,5OO
car limit is inforced there will be
no great accumulation. NJ. R.
Murphy, of the Cudahy Packing
company, explained that more hog
butchers were now available than
before peace was declared.
Our chill rooms are full, said
Mr.. Murphy, "and we have been
killing to our capacity"
Morris and Company have also in
creased their hog butchering force,
They have been killing to their ca
pacity and their chill rooms are

Bridget O'Grady Eats
With Presidents Lady

Paris, Jan. 25.-The tea given at
the Paris White House this evening
was an event the like of which even
the French capital probably had
never seen. 1t was especially and
exclusively for the working men and
women who surrounded the presi-
dent and Mrs. Wilson during their
stay here. Its purpose was to make
them feel that they were members
Of the official family, no matter what
their occupations.
The gendarmes who guard the
great palace gates, the gruff SER
geants and buck priyates of the
American troops that patrol the in
her grounds, the chauffeurs who
whirl the presidential cars about the
streets as happy relief from dis
patch riding at the battle front, and
American telephone girls who OPP
crate the private exchange, and in
native fashion frequently protest
that the line is busy" all were
there.
Some were bashful, some were
completely overcome by stage
fright, while others felt quite at ease
as they were received in democratic
fashion and made to feel at home
in the drawing rooms of the magnifi-
cent palace. The president and Mrs.
Wilson acted as hosts for an hour.
The sergeant of the French guard
calamity introduced his men, as did
the sergeant of the American guard.
The telephone girls assisted their
hostess in pouring tea and receiving
the other guests. For the native
guests chocolate was substituted for
tea.
The president and Mrs. Wilson
said afterward that the social ven
ture was a genuine success. Their
guests said they were much pleased
at their reception.
