Capt. Tardieu, when he said to the

covenant as 1t stands In the present
draft may not be formally adhered to
by the allied associated powers before
the preliminary peace is signed with
Germany. Everything to hasten peace
is the slogan of every commission and
subcOmmission, and rather than suffer
delays, through further deliberations
on the League of Nations the matter
may be left over until after the hos

ended.
All Of the powers unofficially Will
adhere to the league covenant, as all
were represented and consulted dur

its features But 1t is realized that
all sorts of discussions Of armaments
and proposals for changes and amend
ments will be brought up when the
plenary session is asked formally to
adopt the pact.

Berlin, March 8.-Newspapers ap-
pear to be of the opinion that the
strike movement has reached a climax,
and that there are Indications that the
political issues involved will find early
adjustment through negotiations going
on mt Welmar. The Independent So
cialists seem to be backing away from
the movement now, and to be endeav-
oring to unload the responsibility for
the outbreak onto the Spartacnns, who
are accused of having precipitated the
strike before organization plans had
heen thoroughly perfected. The slogan,
Down with Ebert and Scheldemann,"
is no longer given prominence In the
agitation. The vorwaerts, the Social
list organ, states 1t believes an under
standing will be reached In the course
of the day. Gustav Noske, minister OF
defense, has ordered the troops to ar
rest all strikers or leaders Of strikes
who are guilty of rioting or intimidat-
Ing workmen.
The Ebert government published the
draft Of general sOcializatiOn law
and announced that the law and q bill
socialixing coal mines would be sub
mitted to the federal council. The draft
Is drawn In the most brief and most
general terms and reserves for the ma
tional government the field Of leglsla-
ton covering the socialization of in

CHAPTER I-continued.

After breakfast Irene attended 10
fhe wants of her father. and by this
time the visiting doctor was MANIFEST
ing Impotence to be away. But Dave
declared with prompt finality that the
horses must rest until after noon' anu
the doctor, willy-nilly, spent the morn
ing rambling In the foothills. Mean
while the girl busted herself with work
about the house, in which she was Ell
fecting a rapid transformation.
After the midday dinner Dave mar
messed the team for the journey TO
town. but before leaving inquired OF
Irene if there were any special pur-
chases, either personal or for the use
of the house, which she would recon-
mend. With some ditfidence she men
toned one that was uppermost in her
thoughts-soap, both laundry and toll

in calling for a box of his favorlte
cigars and some new magazines, ana
took occasion to press into the boys
hand a bill out of all proportion to the
value of the supplies requested.
The Gay was Introductory to others
that were to follow. Dave returned
the next afternoon, riding his own
horse and heavily laden with cigars
magazines and soap.
The following day 1t was declded
that the automobile, which since the
accident had laid upturned by the road
way, should be brought to the ranch
buildings. Dave harnessed his team
and. instead of riding one of the horses,
walked behind, driving by the relns,
and accompanied by the girl, who had
proclaimed her ability to steer the car.
With the aid of the team and Dawes
lnriat the car was soon righted and was
found to be none the worse for its de-
Election from the beaten track. Irene
presided at the steering-wheel, watch
ing the road with great intentness ana
turning the wheel too far on each oc-
casion, which gave to her course
somewhat wavy or undulating order'
such as is found in bread-knives; or
perhaps a better figure would be to
compare it to that rolling motion at
fected by fancy skaters. However, the
mean of her direction corresponded
with the mean of the trail and all went
merrily until the stream was ap-
preached. Here was rather steep
descent and the car showed a sudden
purpose to engage the horses in con-
test of speed. She determined to use
the foot-brake, feat which was ac-
complished, under normal conditions
by pressing one foot firmly against a
contraption somewhere beneath the
steerlng-post. She shot quick glance
downward and, to her alarm, discov-
