EIene the Versatile
a City-Country Exchange

ELENE was no problem; she was
simply restless and unhappy in
the city and wanted me to take her
along. Her mother consented, for
the child - she was fourteen -
wouldn't stay home in the evenings
would spend every spare minute
at the movies or want to go to q
dance with some boy friend.
She has been in the country a
year and here are a few of the
things she has done: worked with
Land Army Group at haying and
harvesting; had a garden and ex-
hibited at the county fair; is an ex-
cellent cook and housekeeper; has
done notably in preserving and
picking; has raised chickens and a
pig; gone logging; cut wood; helped
with painting and papering and
plastering; vanished floors; got
up entertainments; taught children
dancing and folk-dances; made her
own clothes; this besides some
study and getting up a play, fer
which she was stage manager and
designed and made the costumes.
She has also done all sorts of dan
gerous stunts in climbing.
The child simply had not enough
scope in town for the variety of
ability which she possessed.
There ought to be lively inter
change of young folk between city
and country. If the country life
and the freedom it afforded were a
delight and refreshment to Elene,
quite as valuable to the stolid. self
conscious New Englander were

district is divided into thirteen see

one woman detailed 30 reportorial

community within two hours Of its

the older residents of the district had
stood shoulder to shoulder in work

many other communities, the Scars

Chicago, when the women began to

her own house clean.

"The Scarsdale Inquirer"
Makes Its Bow

Out of all these needs and aspira-

Scarsdale, and, feeling that their
scattered community needed bind
err, so to speak, they have lightly dis
regarded all pending printers
strikes and other minor and majo
difficulties and prepared to issue
q weekly newspaper-"The Scars
dale Inquire" (which made it's bow
on November Is.
No propaganda sheet is "The In
quirer," but a straight newspaper,
to be owned, managed. published and
written by the Women's Club on a
business basis. A far cry this from
the academic women's club Of yore,
which read papers and discussed all
subjects, from Plato to pumpkins,
but never did much of anything.
There will be no room for Hermione
on "The lnquirer's" staff ("The

PARDO DENIES HE
 ASSISTED IN PLOT
Deposed President of Peru Says HeNever Urged Revo-
 lutiOn Against Successor
By Associated Press

New York, September 12.-Jose Pardo, former President of Peru, made emphatic. and unqualified denial today of the state ment appearing in dispatch from Lima Peru, that he had approved the offered to finance plot to overthrow Augusta B. Leguia, President of the South Ameri- can republic. Mir. Pardo arrived in New the presidency by Leguia six weeks be- fore his term of office would have ex' pired legally.
 Never have I written a letter to any body" declared MT. Pardo, offering to finance the revolution against Legula- Leguia's statement regarding myself IS as false as his other allegation that the distinguished Peruvians now imprisoned in Lima were plotting to assassnate him" Speaking further of the poltica, situation in Peru, MT. Pardo deplored the attacks at Lima upon certain newspaper offices and the burning of the residences of Antero Aspillago, pr. Augusta Durand and others.
 ''The arrest of Luis Pardo, Juan Du- rand and Ramon Aspillago, charged with being party to a conspiracy to over throw the administration of Leguia IS all incomprehensible to me- pr. Paroo continued. T do not believe any one of these gentlemen capable of criminal acts such as are imputed to him; they are above suspicion. The facts, in my opin- ion, are that the government of Leguia IS seeking vengeance upon it's political ad- versaries and to this end is charging them with acts which they never committed
