Then came the armistice. and with
its signing Paris went insane. From
behind q curtain Marie could see the
wild crowds surging arm in -arm, both
sexes and all nationalities save the
Germans and Austrians, Bulgarians
and Turks, crowding, rushing along
the Boulevard Victor Hugo at the top
of her tiny side street. They were
singing snatches of Carmen" and the
"Chant du Depart" which dated back
to 1870. Nine. Blanc came in to tell
her the city was mad-mad with Joy.
They went to dine in the Cafe Petit
Dubon, and over the shoulder of an
of1icial-looking gentleman Marie read
this heading from the newspaper LIE

the shopgifls under her. each of whom
strove to display the qualities with
which she had been endowed.
Nine. Blanc prided herself upon the
soundness of her expert judgment as
a reader Of character. Once her opin-
ion was formally registered that
Marie was not spy but a good girl
worthy of trust and the forlorn Aus
trian-born had roof over her head.
"Some Of the rich customers have
murmured to the director of the house

IN THE JACKDAW'S NEST

THAT Is all true enough" the Scare
CROW replied. q little uneasily. But
1 do not see how we can stop just
now: for we might alight in a river
or on the, top of steeple, and that
would be a great disaster"
So they permitted the Gump to ny
on, with regular fiops of its wings,
and waited patiently for morning.
Then Tips fears were proven to be
we'll founded. for with the first
streaks of gray dawn they looked
over the sides of the sofas and dis
covered rolling plains dotted with
queer villages. where the houses, in
stead Of being dome shaped-as they
all are in the Land of Oz-had slant
ing roofs that rose to a peak in the
center. Odd looking animals were
also moving about upon the open
plains, and the country was unfa-
miliar to both the Tin Woodman and
the Scarecrow, who had formerly Wis
tied Glinda the Goods domain and
knew it well.
1--WE are lost" said the Scarecrow,
dolefully. 1.-The Gump must have car
ried us entirely out of the Land of
OF and over the sandy deserts and
into the terrible outside world that
Dorothy told us about"
we must get back" exclaimed the
Tin Woodman. earnestly; 1--WE must
get back as soon as possible!
Turn around" cried Tip to the
Gump; turn as quickly as you can"
III 1 do l shall upset." answered
Gump. I'm not at all used to flying.
and the best plan would be for me to
alight in some place. and then l can
turn around and take fresh start"
Just then. however. there seemed to
be no stopping place that would an
swer their purpose They few over
a village SO big that the Woggle-
Bug declared it was a city; and then
they came to q range of high noun
tains with many deep gorges and
steep cliffs showing plainly.

"Now is our chance to stop" said
the boy. finding they were very close
to the mountain tops. Then he turned
to the Gump and commanded: stop
at the first level place you see."
VERY WELL" answered the Gump.
and settled down upon a table of
rock that stood between two cliffs.
But not being experienced in such
matters, the Gump did not judge his
speed correctly: and instead of COM
ing to a stop upon the nat rock, he
missed it by half the width Of his
body, breaking Off both his right
wings against the sharp edge of the
rock and then tumbling over and over
down the cliff.

The others were not at all afraid,
but the Scarecrow at once decided
to save those of the party who were
liable to be injured by the angry
birds, So he commanded Tip to take

when this was done he ordered the

perience just what to do, then took
the Scarecrow to pieces--all except
his head--and scattered the straw
over Tip and the Woggle Bug, COM

Hardly had this been accomplished
when the flock of Jackdaws reached
them. Perceiving the. intruders In
their nest. the birds flew down upon
them with screams Of rage.

 VICTORIOUS MARCH
In Advancing Against Ul>rainians They Go Further Than Peace Con-

Vienna, Aug. 1, (By Associated Press )-The Poles announce a con- tinuance of their victorious march against the Ukrainians. They are crossing the Zbrucz river at various points, Ct should be noted that the Poles were given authority by the peace conference to proceed only to the Zbrucz)
 The Polish army's objective is said to be Kamenetz, Podolia, which is the capital of Gen. Simon Petlura, the Ukrainian leader
 The Ukrainians recently resume ed diplomatic relations with Rumania, having previously sent missions to Italy, Switzerland, Germany and Aus tria and are said to be seeking to establish one in the United States. It is predicted here that the Ukrain- ians are nearing the final chapter of their struggle for independence, but according to the Ukrainans such a view pre-supposes settlement of the entire Russian question without their consent They declare that they, like the Serbs will continue to fight in definitely.

Provision in Motor Vehicle Light Statute is Greatly Appreciated By Automobile POSSCSSOrS.

Under recently enacted state motor vehicle law it is no longer necessary for automobiles parked on a brilliantly lighted street at night to display lights.

 Every motor vehicle when stand ing upon a public highway during the period of one half hour after sunset 10 one half hour before sunrise, shall show at last one light at front, such light be on the side nearest the center of the road, and shall display at least one red light in the rear provided this section shall not apply to any motor vehicle in a place and under conditions where there is sufficient artificial light to make such motor vehicle clearly visible from a. dis tanCe of not less than one hundred feet from any direction.'
