WHOSE "KIDS" ARE
 THEY?

Secretary Glass of the Treas ury Department has sent tel egram to the school authorities turnout the United States, urg- ing them to make the teaching of thrift a part of the school curriculum during the year 1919. That reminds us of some other things that the schools have recently set about to do.
 The other day one of the na- tion's young hopefuls, in his first year of school, rushed home in great excitement when his class was let out, and shout ed to his mother, "I'm going to be a nightmare" No doubt after her day of trying to keep the young fellows stockings darned and his clothes hung to- gether, the tired mother felt like remarking that he had been that for. a number of years.
 When the truth was finally unearthed from a report blank sent home for the mothers use, it was found that the school proposed to make a knight cf the coming citizen. In other words, the school proposed to take a hand in the hitherto private affairs of the family, and prescribe a bath all over at least twice a week, that he must wash his teeth twice daily that he must wash his hands and face thoroly before each meal, that he must wash his ears and neck, that he must eat a balanced meal three times a | day, including milk, eggs, meat, cereals, and fruits in proportion. But hold on. i Whose kids are these we see running about town? Do they belong to their parents or do they belong to the state? Good by, old-time privacy of the home! Henceforth the little ones will be asked to prate of family affairs, at school. And the parents who do not come up to standard? We'll, there

he brought away pack of tickets and

apologized for lending him less than
half the value of the gems; so many
people were looking to the pawnbrok-

not find cash enough for all. Times
were hard indeed when the pawnbrok-
ers were overworked.
Bayard went home and surrendered
to Leila her funds. She passed them
over to her father-in-law. Poor Wes-
ley peeled off the minimum that would
serve as a sop to his creditors and
said he would take the afternoon train

INTEREST IN ROADS GROWS
More Attention Now Given to ln-

The good roads movement is seeing
a big revival now that business is
becoming normal. The most impOr-.

to our attention is that of the state

favor of a $50,0OOOOO program that,

liams, truck sales manager for @ large
mOtorcar corporation.
Everywhere else you see also more
interest in good roads than in any
period in our history. 1t is true to say
that the war and it's needs taught us
the value of good roads. Perhaps it
did. Perhaps it brought home to those
dull ears of higher ups the supreme
Importance of an intelligent system of
navigable highways. But more and
more it comes home to the man who
studies the situation that back of the
good roads movement must be the or

The farmer or rural dweller in GER

didn't want to pay for them. He did
not realize that in the long run good

the farmer today is reckoning in units

Yes, he realizes the value of min

just as keen in conserving time as the
city-bred man who operates big fac
tory; If anything, he is bit keener,
for seasons do not wait and crops must
be sowed and cultivated, reaped and
marketed at the right time. He has
convinced himself that time is money.
And he knows that good roads save
time and that they save time largely
because they make 1t possible to get
satisfactory services from motorcars
and motortrucks. And he is not one
bit blind to the fact that operating cost

times Of such frantic needs. He could
not do any Of the honorable, pleasant
things that one can do with money.
He had to do many of the dishonor-

CHAPTER XVI.

Daphne had watched Leila's little
scene with as much confusion as the
other two Kips. She felt a normal
amount of jealousy, of course, as wom-
an to woman, but no more than q
healthy amount, for she liked Leila
and she was grateful to Leila for be-
ing able to rescue her father and for
being willing to. 1t was a fine thing
for Leila to strip herself of her last
splendOr to help an old father-in-law
pay the interest on a mortgage on a
house in another town. Daphne gave
Leila full need Of applause for that.
What embitter" / Daphne was that
1t had to be Leila and not herself that
to do the deed by spending things she
had not paid for herself-ornaments
gewgaws, gifts.
Leila had collected from life perhaps
three thousand dollars worth of jew
els and Daphne had collected a fifty
dollar check, framed-and that check
was in lieu Of work. AS soon as she
remembered that check she ran up to
her room and took it down from the
WALL ripped off the back of the frame
and removed the check from the mat.
She studied it and thought, "The
first money and the last" Then q
vigor and determination clenched all
her muscles in a kind of lockjaw. She
came out of the spasm in tremor of
hysterical faith. She spoke her
thought aloud in fury: "It sha'n't be
the last, it sha'n't, it sha'n't, by gollyl"
The feebleness of the expletive dis
gusted her. She tried to be powerful
by way of powerful language. Before
she knew it she ripped out resound-
ing oath that would have pleased good
Queen Bess. BY G., I'll pay my way
honestly! like a mani"
All her powder exploded in that one
defamation.
She fell over into a chair in horror.
The blasphemy seemed to rattle about
the little room. 1t terrified her. Mrs.
Chivvis ran down the hall, carrying her
everlasting sewing, and tapped on the
door and asked:
did you call me, my dear2 Are
you ill?"
"No, thank you. I'm all right. I
didn't say anything"
That was doubly false. She had
said something. In the slang Of the
hour she had "said something" She
had "said an earful," also q heartful.
Mrs. Chivvis supposed that what she
had heard was some voice from the
street. and went back along the hall,
stitching as she walked.
Daphne took the check and went
down to Bayard's apartment. Bayard
was on his way to the pawnbroker's.
Leila was in his room. Old Wesley
sat in a chair facing a wall. He seem.
ed to see through it. Daphne went to

He looked at it and smiled and tears
fairly shot out of his eyes. He patted
her hand between his and said:

In this world"

ever so happy"
"But 1t would kill mel You don't
