held to celebrate this important event
in German history.

finally referring to the slip oil
which he had just written my name
and address.
Then he went darting off to
carry out his idea. 1t seemed a
wise one. l had bought nothing I
wouldn't need within the next year.

waste the time 1 had spent in try

duce. Then l added a string of
shops and ended with the smartest
of hotels where we were in tn,

Advice to the LoveIorn
HAS A SOLDIER FRIEND
DEAR MISS sFAIRFAX:

~N'AAS nlloo OF EAlhFAA.
- About a year ago on our wav to
New York, my brother and 1 encoun-
tered regiment of soldiers due for
overseas. My brother gave them some
cgarets and books, and we talked
with them. One in particular I liked
very much. He was well hammered
ana perfect gentleman. He asked
me wouldn't I write. We kept UP a
correspondence for ten months. When
nc came home ! met him with some
mowers and he called once, and said
ne liked me very much. Previous to
coming home he was real serious in
his letters. But l said perhaps when
we meet again we will both change
our minds. He even wrote from the
camp that he liked me more than he
thought. When mustered out he wrote
ne had to go home, but would return
the next week. His home is in New
Hampshire. l haven't seen him since.
.That is three months ago. He writes
me after neglecting me for six weeks
that If l forgive him he will come
down tc see mesoon and explain
everything. l wrote a very nice letter,
saying l would. Kindly tell me what
you would do if you were I. l think
great deal of him because he is far
from the ordinary. ANXIOUS.
l fear you have expected too much
from this accidental pleasant friend
ship. 1t would be unwise to make any
further advance toward this young
man or to think of him in the light
of a lover unless he should unmis-
tagably prove himself to be one.

wouldn't care for them. And, be-

I couldn't fit you. These are eN-

and very reasonable, too. Nothing
over sixteen dollars. Really, to get
six pairs of slippers, buckles and
hosiery at such a small figure is
like having a little bargain sale OF
your own when you consider how
much higher things are going"
I laughed, trying to pretend I was
at ease.

1 need and wait till another time
for the stockings" I said. "As a
matter of fact, that's what I'll have
to do, for I haven't the money for
all my purchases"
Why not send them C. o. Dor,
better still, charge them" sug-
gested the clerk. "Of course, no
one carries so much cash. But

FAULTY, SAYS
FORD EXPERT
Declares Walls of Craft Are
Weak and Plates Likely
to Buckle. -

Washington, Jan. 21-Harry E. Le-
Roy of Saginaw, Mich, formerly en-
ployed as contractor at the Ford
Detroit Boat plant. testified before
the house naval committee today that
the Eagle boats built for the navy at
the plant were seriously faulty in de-
sign and construction. He said the
walls Of the craft were weak, particu-
larly about the engine and fire room.
When he reported his observations to
his employers, he said. they knew
nothing about boat construction, be-
ing automobile builders. but prom
ised to, report the criticisms to the
navy department.
Secretary Daniels. Rear Admiral
Taylor, chief constructor, and Rear
Admirals Griffin and Earle listened to
LeRoy's> testimony. The three rear
admirals recently testified to the
plans drawn and inspections made
by naval experts, Admiral Taylor say
ing the Eagles had conformed to de-
signed characteristics and were useful
both for war and peace purposes.
Steel plates, furnished to speed up
quantity production Of the Eagle
boats, Leroy asserted. were thrown
together and loosely bolted, insuring
buckling and corrosion in actual use.
Leroy also criticized the character
of workmen employed at the Ford
shipyard, declaring most we're for
eigners, including many Germans and
Austrians unable to speak to, or un-
derstand their superintendents> who
had to give orders by manual signs.

This is one paradox. Another is
that these Sim Feiners. elected by
about half Of the voters in Ireland on
a platform of independence from the

of the British parliament, but speci-
fically refused to recognize that body

solemnities of 1875 at Philadelphia.
1t will be carried out in the Irish Ian

Three items are expected to con-
stitute the body of the program-a
declaration of independence, a mes
sage to the free nations Of the
world and the appointment Of dele

No one predicts any trouble or dis
order. The revolutionary flag floats
quite freely over the homes of Sim

thorities of the nation whom they are
