 My dear!f Mother remonstrated. Are you still little iealous?'
 I'm great deal jealous;s I assert ed. And I'm not ashamed of it, either Didn't that woman take our boy away from us. and have him called back to that old camp hospital? Didn't she do it deliberately because she she could see he was beginning to fall in love with a queer dark little girl Daddy had hired for his secsetaty?"
 Mother nodded, then said:
 Perhaps jealousy isn't always evil. Our emotions are good or bad, accord ing to their results, I suppose. When we build through them they are good When we destroy them, they are bad
 Katherine Miller was jealous ia a common way. She would have des- troyed Bob rather than let me cure him through love. For that hate her l can't help it. But she had her chance and she failed, Now it is my turn! And 1 will not faill. I tried hard to

Back at Old 45, Tues,
.Joanie dear,

Joanie dear:
 am writing from my old room at Mrs. Glenn's. I feel exactly like an elderly horse who has been turned out to graze in his old. familiar back lot after a season of over strenuous racing. I am in my blue kmona, hair down back, bath slippers flap Tapping. And as you dress, So your mood is.
 Tomorrow l shall be rested. Next day I shall have my things home from the laundry. Friday my frocks and frills will all be freshened. Sat urday I shall be repacked and ready for new start. Today l am medi tating. putting my self to rights, and taking stock
 Don't think I got away from Lively Beach with perfect ease and simplicity. Jimmie Ross refused to be shaken off by my mere announeement that I was tired of the hotel and was going back to town for rest and general repairs

 You've been mighty good to me, Jimmie,' I answered, feeling how stupid it sounded but not knowing anything better to offer.
 Prove your gratitude. We can motor to town, lave tea at my mothers, get the license at the Mu- nicipal Building on the way up, and be married before 8 o'clock. It's per- fectly simple"
 Tt WOULD be perfectly simple not to say idiotic. Listen. Jimmie I saw 1 had really hurt him. You are the dearest kid.

Gambling in Phoenix


 Tn rather rude and bloody manner we are re- minded that or less open gambling is going on in Phoenix. That Creme. the man who was killed yesterday morning was gambler, was notorious. He had for at least three years past operated in various places Tn the meantime there were and are other places Phoenix no less notorious notwithstanding the laws of both the city and the state against gambling.
 If the death of Creme should result in calling at tention gambling in such that the author ities cannot fail take notice of this and suppress it. the price paid. the life of Creme. the gambler. will be reasonable and even cheap.
 We might say to those whose business it is to look after these things that while perhaps there may be many people who do not know that there is gambling in Phoenix and who may think that the laws are being enforced, thousands know that the law against gambling is not enforced except when here and there slot machine is interfered with a few small and inconsequential gamblers taken into custody
 We do not know what influence permitted Creme to pursue his way long and conduct dead-fali where victims who might have won against mere chance were neeeed.

Many sailors and a sprinllirg of sol dierS were present and they entered into the spirit of the occasion. singing with vigor the popular songs and the hymns to tho music of Swahn's or prayer. The address of me occasion was delivered by Rev. George H. Strouse. who chose for lis subject Abraham Lincoln" an7 he held the closest attention throughout and at the close was applauded warmly. He said in part:
 Over a century ago there was born on the Western Hemis phere a republic destined to play mighty conspicuous part in the great game of intC/Aational affairs This republic is now the acknowledged leader among the nations of the world. Over this land oats Old Glory symbolizing the very fondest men have dared to dream this side of the millennium. To defend Old flory-to mike possible for all the world all that the flag sym l bolizes for us, you men offered your | best. Now that the days Of recon | struction are upon us are you willing | to put your best into the game? ! I want to speak of a man who caught the spirit of Jesus and this man | Jesus was the fineNk, cleanest. noblest 1 and nErest, the most daring man who ever lived. To be like HiTn man real izes his highest ideal. Lincoln was the man who caught his spirit. And Lin- l cold has brought as much or more i glory to this land we love than any l other brought as much or more glory
 }0 fr Oth man. What was the sec1et of his power? What is the secret today oi his eyertightening grip on the hearts of men? Why is Lincoln ar interna tional figure and why is he universal ly loved today? He caught the spirit
 of Jesus and it percolatea through his | whole system. Washington f7s a great CT man of action. Intellectually Franklin and others equ;tled or per haps even surpassed Lincoln, but
 when we consider the whole man there are few if any who suTpass him
 Lincoln had a keen moral insight
 his mind anl heart were welded. H.
 was one of the few tender spirits WhC
 ever climbed the twisting ladder whicl
 leads to political eminanca. No ranco
 marred his Sour-therG was no room for revenge and pride.
 He loved the right with all his beins and justice was woven into the whol
 fabric of his soul Lincoln lived t
 serve, and therefore he was Eery mucI

EASTERN POINT SHEPARD
 HAS EYE ON PEACE WopI

The Groton Iron Works at Eastern Point with other shipyards through out the country, is looking forward to the time when it will be relieved of it's arrangement to build vessels ex- clusively for the U. $. Shipping Elmer gency Fleet Corporation, and to take such contracts for standard vessels for private parties as it may desire. When relieved of government work. the Groton Iron Works plans to build standard steamers for the U. S. Steamship. Co.,, which is controlled by c. w. Morse. When such ships are completed, the U. S. Steamship Co. will either operate them, or be able to obtain a better price bys selling them completed than would be possi- ble by contracting for future deIiv- cry.
 A particularly desirable feature of 1 this arrangement develops in the fact that expensive changes and costly in 1 spection of outsiders can be eliminated and costs reduced, by men becoming 1 experts in building similar boats, which have all "frills" cut out, to re- 1 duce the vessels to a plain, commer- cial basis.
 The theory of the shoe manufactur- ! CT who makes shoes of a standard type is now applicable. A purchaser will buy ship to fit his needs, and will no 1 longer wait for two years for a spe- cal ship to be designed and built to meet trade he may lose by not hay ing his ship at once.
 All steel shipyards in the country
 are still faithfully meeting their war time obligations to give their entire output to the Emergency Fleet cor poration or the navy department. Some yards may obtain cancellations of z
 number of ships in it's existing con. tracts, to be later followed by replace ment contracts from the Emergency Fleet corporation for a much large capacity of vessel, such as 12,000 ol
 19,000 tons. This policy will jointly
 enable the Emergency Fleet corpora
 tion to sell ships of a type it ma!
 not desire to private interests and a
 the same time bcild up it's own flee
 of types of vessels appropriate fol
 times of peace.
 The Groton Iron Works has capacity to construct the largest type of yes sels desired by the Emergency Flee
 corporation, and on the other hand i receiving requests for bids from shil
 owners throughout this country ant Europe.
