0 GRENADE BANKS FOR c
D THE SCHOOL CHILDREN @

Banks of the Kentucky Federal Re-
serve District are sending in rush
orders for the hand grenade banks
which the War Savings Organization
Division is soon to distribute through
the banks to the school children of
Kentucky.
Under the scheme adopted by the
Kentucky Banks they will "lend"
grenade bank to any child under II
years old who applies for it. To Sc
cure ownership of the grenade bank
the child will be required to earn
enough money to purchase one War
Savings Stamp. and take the money
to the institution where the grenade
bank was secured and buy a War
Savings Stamp there.
The children will be allowed the
entire summer to do the work and
they will be required to surrender
the grenade bank unless they pur-
chase War Savings Stamp before
October LIST. This plan has made it
possible to allow the child the use of
the grenade bank to save his pennies
and dimes, while he is accommodating
enough to buy his War Saving Stamp.
After the reopening of school and
after the qualifying children have
been supplied, the hand grenades will
be given to persons over seventeen
years who purchase three or more W.
S. S.
The hand grenades, which are the
highest development of the time
honored weapon, are transformed in
to thrift agencies by the simple pro-
cess of clearing out the explosive
chamber, cutting a slot through
shrapnel casting which is the body
of the grenade, and substituting a
removal screw for the base of the
casting. The grenade bank will hold
100 pennies or 100 dimes. With the
exception of these changes the gren-
AIDES remain in the exact form de-
signed for their original purpose.
Across the face of the grenade bank
appear the words BUY W. S. s."

CHAPTER XIV.

He went to his room, threw off his
coat, waistcoat collar and tie, letting
them lie where they CHANGED to fall,
and then, having violently enveloped
himself in black velvet dressing
gown, continued this action by lying
down with a vehemence that brought
Il wheeze of protest from his bed. His
repOse was only a momentary sem.
blance, however, for 1t lasted no long
er than the time it took him to groan
"Riffraf'" between his teeth. Then he
sat up, swung his feet to the floor rose
and began to pace up and down the
large room.
He had just been consciously rude
to his mother for the first time in his
life; for, with all his riding down OF
populace and riffraff, he had never be
fore been either deliberately or i'm
pulsiveIy disregardful of her. But
now he had done rough thing to her /;
and he did not repent; the rather he
was the more lrritated with her. And

door with light step, singing cheer
fully to herself as she went to her
room, be perceived that she had mis-
taken his intention altogether, or, in.
deed, had failed to perceive that he
had any intention at all.
There came a delicate, eager tap
ping at his door, not done with

Fanny's society. Therefore 1t is moi
surprising that at the sound Of her

the intention Of locking the door TO

with long strides he reached the door
and FASTENED through the hall; but
before he closed the door he heard
from JAMIE and Mary Sharon the out
burst Of wild, irrepresslble emotion
which his performance had inspired.
He drove home In a tumultuOus
mood. and almost ran down two ladies
who were engaged in absorbing con-
versation at a crossing. They were
his Aunt Fanny and Mrs. Johnson; q
Jerk Of the reins at the last instant
saved them by few inches; but their
conversation was so interesting that
they were unaware Of their danger
and did not notice the runabout, nor
how close it came to them.
He drove into the Majors stable too
fast. the sagaciOus Pendennis saving
himself from going through partition
by a swerve which splIntered shaft
Of the runabout and almost threw the
driver to the floor. George swore, and
then swore again at the fat old darkey,
Tom, for gIggling at his swearing.
He strobe from the stable, crossed
the Majors back yard. then passed
behind the new houses. on his way
home. These structures were now APP
preaching completion, but still in
state Of rawness hideous to George
though, for that matter, they were
never to be anything except hideOus
to him:
In this temper he emerged from be-
hind the house nearest his own and,
glancing toward the street, saw his
mother standing with Eugene Morgan
upon the cement path that led to the
front gate. She was bareheaded and
Eugene held his hat and stick in his
hand; evidently he had been calling
upon her. and she had come from the
house with him, continuing their con-
yersation and delaying their parting.
George stared at them. A hot dis
lik4 struck him at the sight Of Eu-
gene; and a vague revulsion, like
strange, unpleasant taste in his mouth,
came over him as he looked at his
mother; her manner was eloquent OF
so much thought about her companion
and of such reliance upon him.
The two began to walk on toward
the gate, where they stopped, turning
to face each other. and Isabel's glance,
passing Eugene, fell upon George. In
stantly she smiled and waved her
hand to him, while Eugene turned and
nodded; but George. standing as 10
