sary."
The nurse whom the Chapter can
employ would also be active In In

generation. "She would examine the
children In the schools" explained
Miss Croncn, "and report to the
school physician the cases that need
ed attention. Many OF the mon re-

There was an unusual scene in the

sions two women in the strangers gal

ers! You have not settled the last war !!
You are leading the people and workers

This woman left quietly on the re
quest of the attendants.
Miss Sylvia Pankhurst, daughter of
Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, the suffrage
leader, was one of the women who were
asked to leave. They were detained un-

Natalie and Jack left, that he was quite
certain that Jack still cared for her,
Ruth would have been quite ready to
say that night that she couldn't go on
with things.
Now as she lay still she dallied with
the thought that Jack still liked her.
There was not a remnant Of feeling in
her heart for him, but it was so sooth
ing to her feelings to know that Jack
cared, and to feel that Scott noticed it
1t seemed somehow to make differ
ence.
Over lcisurely breakfast she and
Scott chatted lightly like old days. The
sun streamed into the dining room. and
they slipped coffee and ate soft boiled
eggs, and smiled at each other over the
newspaper. Ruth thought too of the
SIS in her pocketbook, that S1S that
she had taken out of yher pay envelope
yesterday. the first money she had ever
earned. 1t had delicious possibilities,
and outside it was spring and Monday
morning was n long way off.
1t was Scott who precipitatcd the
first cloud.
Il want to discuss something with
you, dear" he began tentatively. Scott
always spoke that way and sometimes
Ruth loved it in him; other times she
thought it indecisive and wished he
wouldn't do it.
She looked up inquiringly.
Something will have to be changed
about our program If you intend to
keep on with your work"
''If I intend to keep on? But you
how do, Scott. Why do you say
that"
Scott looked guilty, and Ruth was all
the angrier because she knew that what
Scott had been thinking in his own
heart had been perfectly true. She
know. too. that sic would neycr admit

Saves the Question Box

To the Editor Of Wonun's Page:
Dear Madam-Will you please give
me some advice on how to save or keep
the questions in the question box and
the quiz. The way I save them is by
pasting them in a diary. This seems
very tiresome. The book isn't very
thick and it would be filled soon, and l
wouldn't like to have two books OF the
same thing. Another way that L
thought Of was to copy all the answers
in a loose leaf bank book, and If you
have not enough paper, you can buy
some and Just put it in. But this is
wasting paper. I would be very much
obliged to have your advice. S.T.
I think the loose leaf book would be
best of all, and I don't see how you
would be wasting paper in using it. But
! wouldn't copy the questions and
answers in, but rather neatly clip them
out and paste them in. Arrange your
items alphabetically for instance, have
pages for games, beauty hints, little
household hints, ETC., and then you
might have pages for general informa-
.ion contained in the quiz and classified
alphabetically in this way: (a) In
formation. (b) Information. etc. The
advantage in having a loose leaf note
book is that you caa 60 on building
your book almost indefinitely. You see,
for instance, when you have two pages
Of (a) Information filled, all you have
to do is slip another blank page under
(a) and start pasting more (a) and SO
on. with the other items. All you will
have to do each night is turn to that
letter under which the item you are
going to save comes and paste it in. Get
a good sized loose leaf book in the first
PLACE, one with large sheets, as it will
be worth the initial expense. l wonder
If some of our other readers don't think
this a very good idea to save the in
formation that appeals to them in the
question corner and the daily quiz.
know many of our readers do save the
clippings loosely, but it seems to me n
book like this Systematically kept would
be Of any amount of interest and value
as the years roll on.

Leeney's feelings. However,, he did not regard it as fun, and the Herald hastens to dis claim any intention of hurting his feelings and apologies for loaning itself to hurting them.

FOREIGN EXCH ANGIE AND
 BUSINESS.

Foreign Exchange, continuing very weak, is restricting the exporter to- ss4kF in his dealings with European
 m ntries. The fnanciers are asking 95r quick action on the part of Con- gress to bring about an alleviation
 of the conditions that are depreciating
 the foreign currency in order that our
 trade abroad may be ed in vol
 ume. Where one loses, however, an-
 other gains. We see, in weakened ex-
 change, tendency to keep goods in
 our own country, making the price
 to the American consumer cheaper.
 The need of the country may be re-
 strcted to- foodstuffs but even they
 will be virtually restricted if the eX-
 porter may not be able to sell because
 of the "cheap'' money which becomes
 "dear' money in certain conditions.
 It follows that the surplus must be
 sold here and that there will be some manner of competition Tn prices again, which makes for cheaper commidi- ties.
 Unfortunately we are restricted in the export of our manufa ctured pro- ducts also and we need. for the wei fare of the country, an extended for | eien trade to balance that of our inn | ports We must search for new markets everywhere so that the pro- | ducer, on the bench and in the office, 1 may receive an outlet for what he
 supplies. There are many things for | which there is a demand abroad and | which we may not well sell there When financial adjustment has been i reached it will bring about an ideal 1 condition for labor. Trade is es- i sential1y interdependent. Without an l income from the rest of his fellow ! men. through the sale of some com- ] modity fer instance, the storekeeper ] is unable to buy the products of his 1 fellows, which they actually swap 1 with hirn, through the agency of a
 specified amount of coin. which we l call "dollars" However, the old 1 prin ciple of exchange Is there, and 1 it is as necessary among nations as 1 it is among individuals. As long as l there is no established dollar" be-
