Dollar Shortage Leads to
Trial for Embezzlemenf

The trial OF Walter M. Thornburg
arraigned for embezzlement from the
Toledo Scale company, of Toledo. IN
circuit court Monday morning, has
turned into a near-comedy. -
Records kept by the scale company
showed that Thornburg's crime con-
sisted of being short 81 in his ac-
counts with them last March. while
against the deolt there is a credit bal
ance which may put him SLIPS to the

Thornburg pleaded guilty to embez-

advisement by Judge Bond, who Will

is expected that the judge will sus-

Under the company's system of book
keeping an agent is credited with ac-

up to that time his commissions are
prospective only. Thornburg expects
to collect the s1225 of prospective
credit which he has with the company.

TIE MEETING OF THE WAYS

THE MEETING OF THE WAYS
A man does not know how doggedly
he has plodded until he catches a
shining glimpse Of his goal or gets
lift" on the road. Walt had been
working against hope, against failure,
against harassed mind and nerves I'M
til he had grown to carry his burden
as something that could not be other
wise than burden ever.
Then came through Lucy Benton the
offer of Barth to publish his stories;
and Lucy's eager partnership in the
venture. Hers was not only partner
ship in work but a stimulus to his
spirit.
The difference to Walt shone in his
face, showed in his bearing, fructi-
fled in his work both in quality and
output. This in turn sent a message
like the coming of springtime to every
tightly compressed nerve in his sys-
TEN, until he felt himself expanding
like alternating bear in the first
warm sun of April.
Janet saw the change in him. And
she gave Lucy full credit for it. jan
ct had the chara cter to squarely face
life, and to give even the devil his
due; or hers if that particular devil
turned out to be woman.

he had shown her the manuscript he
had written for the forthcoming book
and the illustrations Lucy had drawn
to go with it. 'Waltie, it seems to
me | have treated Lucy shabbily, in
view of the friend she is to you. Will
you not ask her to have dinner with
us some night-either here, or at some
restaurant, If she prefers?"
Walt snatched her to him.

cried. "Of course, she'll be delighted
to come here."
He was right. Lucy was too COM
pretending not to appreciate what
Janet's invitation meant, and not to
accept it. 1t told her that Janet &C
cepted her as an equal in sincerity and
decency. 1t spoke to her Of a recog-
milton of kinship that moved Lucy
almost to running away, leaving all
clear for Janet Across the simple in
vitation, the two women spoke to each
other in the language of instinct Each
understood the other and her problem:

that met and ate the meal Janet her
self cooked. The two women greeted
each other with a sincerity which,
while 1t did not put either at ease,
still eliminated distrust. They chatted
and laughed and Lucy helped Walter
and Janet with the dishes after dinner
To all appearances there was nothing
but gayety in the mood Of the party

WITH THE WOMEN OF TODAY

When Miss Frances Marion left for
France last year little did she think
that she would be the first American
woman to Cross the Rhine. But that
is the record which she now has. Miss
Marion, who has been an artist, a
newspaper woman and scenario
writer. went to France with the pur-
pose Of filming the activities Of women
In the war and also of doing some
secret propaganda work for the COM
mittee of public Information. She was
tice was signed.
1t was the desire of the committee
that she get to Germany as quickly as
possible The Red Cross, following
its usual custom Of sending supplies
and comfort ahead Of the troops, be-
gan loading its cammions and ambu-
lances soon after November IL. And
SO, at tho request Of the committee Of
public information, the Red Cross, al
ways ready to cooperate, took Miss
Marion as far as Treves, from where
she secured passage into Coblenz five
days ahead of the army. :
Upon this part of her trip and the
reason for it Miss Marion prefers to
remain silent, but she has many in
teresting things to tell of her ride
through the battle-scarred fields and
cities of northern France.

interviewed in her apartments in New
York, Il happened to remark that

starving for it. The bright, coy little

in the role of hosts, the sight Of Waits
own room. workshop and den in one,
with Janet's touch in every fixture and

ness through Lucy which at times she
thought was more than she could bear
In self-defense, she played a light
heartedness she did not feel.
Janet on her part, after she had
sent Walt to see Lucy home. felt her
share of longing and envy. A woman
of pride, she was not content with
holding title to Walt merely by deed
of marriage. Not even knowing that
Walt loved her comforted her wholly.
She wanted to be his mate in mind
and kind. She longed to help and in
spire him in his work But of that
she felt Lucy had the better share
Lucy and Walt were kin in their fell
low-citizenship in bohemia. They were
working together, where she herself
had failed to get Walt to work with
her. Yes-they were working togeth-
er, Walt and Lucy, while she, Janet,
had to work together with Roy Nicoll.
And it was Lucy and not she, Janet,
who had brought the light to shine in
