An Appalling Situation

THERE was a crucial instant for
= Katherine Harvard when her hus-
band put the abrupt question which
was a demand rather than an interro-
cation.
1t was one Of those vital instant,
when one has only a flash Of time in
which to determine course which must
be adhered to iudefnitely-in which
a thousand queries and replies pas,
into and out Of ones mind with the
rapidity Of thought which can span the
distance between earth and sun within
one ten milionth of a second.
Katherine realized in that instant
when there was no perceptible pause
at all-that she had to choose between
a deliberate deception and a complete
revelation of all of the facts. Merely
a part of the truth, with something
withheld, woulG not suffice for Bingham
Harvard, once called the Night Wind
by the men who had hunted him.
katherine lied to him-and hated
herself for doing so the instant when
it had been done yet, had she been
given an hour or day to think it
over, she must have arrived at the

Senator Lodge Beatified


To the Editor Of the EUeminO Public Ledger:
Sir AS a reader of your valuable
paper l am at loss to understand its
opposing the acceptance of the league
of nations in a false light before the
people of the country.
The senators (to be brief oppose this
document because in effect it reduces
our Declaration of Independence to a
scrap of paper; because it nullities the
powers given under the Constitution to
Congress; because it would create a
super President of the United States a;
because it is Il radical departure from
those sound principles upon which rest
the foundations of our sovereignty and,
again, because it is possible, in the
light of the ambiguity of its text, to
permit lot of nOnprogressive and
pgmy nations to hamstring the giant
of civilization and advancement.
If it is such an all-important docu .
ment, why does not the President turn
on the light and furnish the Senate the
information it desires? Why (if he is
Sincere) does he insist it shall, be jointly
acted upon with the treaty? Is it too
weak to stand alone? What guarantee,
in lieu of the sacrifices it would entail
upon self government, have we that it
will prevent future wars? l believe
that the President himself would re-
pudiate it if he thought that he would
not be the representative of our coun
try in its councils.
This Office creates perpetual super
vision of one man over the COnstitu
tional powers vested in the President
and the Congress of the United States,
in other words, creates a dictatorship.
In view of the secrecy in which ii
was conceived and the free use of the
phrase incompatible with this or that,
etc." it looks as if the President has
already bargained with the other mem
bers of the peace council that he should
have their support in making him the
member of the league council from
America. The people of this country
have right to know what was done
at Versailles, incompatible" or not.
cannot see how any real American
can ridicule the patriotism and zeal
Of such senators as Mr.. Lodge and
others when every intelligent man
knows that they would Willingly ratify
the treaty of peace, bad as it is, pro-
vided the President place his patriot
ism above his politics and stand by
the people, in this vital crisis as Loyalty
and sincerely as they stood by him, ir .
respective of party, politics or personal
welfare.

maid sadly, "but l have given my word

"You just bet I'll hold you to your

as l get down out of this tree"

Billy, and he began to laugh. He whis -
pered his idea into the ear of Judge
Owl, and Judge Owl chucklcd, passing
the funny idea on to Blue Jay, and
Blue Jay passed it on to Reddy Wood d.

about it.

Puryis Gets Worried

WHEN the elevator with our precious
W load of jewels stopped at the
twelfth floor Of the Karmel building
Bruno Duke picked up one of the grips
and walked along the corridor until he
came to room 124S.
The Office was in darkness, but Duke
boldly knocked on the door. No sound
answered his peremptory summons.
Again he knocked, this time little
louder and longer. After a slight delay
we heard some one moving on tiptOe
inside the dark office, then again

Instead OF knocking again Duke rat

\ light was instantly turned on and
the door opened. Purvis looked any

and his collar missing. His usual jOvial
manner was missing and in place of the
ruddy complexion was pale face, with
ewes surrounded with dark circles. To
even a casual observer Purvis was i'll

Duke with his bag of jewels had
passed beyond the open flap of the big
counter in the outer office into Purvis' S
own room. followed carrying another
bag. We had deposited them on the
floor before PurviS noticed me. He first
looked alphabetically at me, then as
recognition followed he looked puzzled
surprised and suspicious. Finally he
blurtcd out:

blurted:

Wis jumped at these words-the same
words that Staatbufs had used only q

Up in the Pine Tree

BLACKSMITH Joe was very angry
- when he shouted to Anita, the mer
maid. that she must wed him instead
Of the Prince of Dollars. He started
to climb down out of the pine tree in
which he mad taken refuge from the
animals, but he chanced to glance be
low, and then he stopped very suddenly
Four pairs Of shining eyes were glar
ing up at him from the gloom. They
were the eyes of Lonesome Bear, Balky
Sam, Billy Goat and Johnny Bull, ant
all the animals were just aching to have
Blacksmith Joe drop among them.
The Prince of Dollars held the hand
of the mermaid when she tried to draw
away and spoke to her very gently.
"Do Sou love Blacksmith Joe ant
want to marry him." he asked
"No, no! My cruel uncle forced M,
to give my PROMISE" answered Anita.
"You hear what Anita says" CRIED
the prince to Blacksmith Joe. "Sh,

noble fellow YOU will free her from

"Why not? Staatburg's nothing to
you except debtor who tried to de-
ceive you. Why should you care what
he thinks?'
Purvis was nervously rubbing his
hand, his breath coming in gasps. Never
have seen a man so thoroughly scared
as he was, but Duke apparently never
noticed his perturbation.
"You're all right, Purvis. Tomorrow
