Legion Presents Plan.
J. @. Scrugham. acting chairman
OF the beneficial legislation COM
mittee of the American Legion, pre-
sented to the committee this morn
ing n completed bill drafted by
members of that organization and
outlining a plan for compensating
world war veterans. 1t proposed
that Congress give each service
man the right to four Alternatives
for compensation.
The first was that government
land be made available to former
service men and that they be cred
tied on account of their purchase at
the rate of $3.50 a day for each day
in the service. The, second provided
that the government provide aid in
purchasing homes in cities and
country to the etexnt of $500 a
day for every day in the service.
The third would give free voca-
tional training for the length of
time equivalent to that served in
the army or navy and $50 a day.
The majority of men. 1t was said,
would prefer the fourth alternative
which provides that former service
men receive $3.50 a day for each
day in the service.

Declaring unbelief 20 be the sin

more than $50 people a. tn5 Lasalle

20 o'clock. His talk was preceded
by snort song service Ted by Loren
Jones which concluded with a duet
by Mr.. Jones and Don Cochran. The
Invocation was pronounced by Ray
Bird Of the Rescue Mission.
Primarily men go TO hell because
they don't believe not because they
are rnurderers or adulterers." Mr..
Jones said in beginning. and then
went on 20 prove that because Jesus
Christ was the friend OF man and
because He knew what He was talk
ing about there Is no evading His
statement. "He that believeth not
shall be condemned.
There was never a bigger lie
born IN hell nor Matched by devils
that the propaganda Of the present
day that It makes no difference what
YOU believe" he continued, there
IS but one way 20 heaven and that is
TO walk with Christ The way TO
hell Is 10 walk alone"
A Vain Sacrifice.
In conclusion ne pointed out that
10 reject Jesus Christ IS TO pour
contempt on Gods wisdom, is to re-
ject Gods love gift and to render
the death on the cross a vain sacri-
flee.

CHAPTER XVI.

I shall not pretend to give more
than an idea Of the manuscript l read
there by the fire that night. It was
narrative and reflection and contained
the story Of the life of Arthur Dobson,
known to me heretofore as Mr.. Sid
ney. I shall give extracts from 1t:
"A family is an odious imposition
Of cruel conventionalities upon indi.
viduals who. accepting conventions.
however odiOus and cruel. are helpless.
The bond of blood ia one no animal
(animals being rationnliStic) tolerates,
even recognizes, but 1t is imposed up
on human beings. who find that the
most an%tagonistic natures must rec
oncile themselves to an arbitrary rule
of life which can come only to hide
ousneSs.
"There were in our family two chill
dren, my brother Richard and myself.
Our parents were the ordinary folk
who marry and have a family. My
father was an uncommunicative man.
whether from a habit Of silence or a
lack Of anything to say, l do not
know.
my mother. as I recall her. was
gentle but. I imagine. futile. I think
If she had had n chance Of establish
ing a personality my silent. glum fa-
Their had destroyed 1t.
Orchard was my elder by two years.
My father was wealthy, very wealthy.
and Richard and I were moi disciplined
as to money. My father was moi pc
nurious. but I never knew a man who
obtained so little good Of his money.
He had no social instincts; he had no
.1oviality.
HE liked occasional ostentation-a
petty form of vanity and egotism.

very fond Of Mr.. Sidney. lie was the
best friend / ever had or ever shall
have.
"Now, l have guarded against act
ing tmpulsiveiy or sentimentally. I
know l am in an acutely emotional
condition. have guarded against
that. am still considering the world
as a real world and myself as a real
creature in it. And here's the way
figure it. Mr.. Sidney's death has
taught me that materialism is not
enough. 1t is necessary. but there Is
something else. I've got to find an
other something else. That's more
important than any money or comforts
-physical-that l a find.
'Where is this something else to be
found again if not right here in this
family? l have determined to remain
in your service after you marry Hiss
Sidney, and to take care Of you and
her and Mrs. Sidney. l couldn't leave.
The roots are too deep. could he

world l consult my real good. now as

you to be acting s~entimentally."
"You to me to he wholly crazy"
l said. "When you speak of Miss Sid
ney's marriage TO me, you are not only
ironic; you are cruel. l should think
that this particular day might make
you at least considernte."
you're the blindest man l ever
knew" said Jed. "but I'm not dealing
with what you think but with what
l know. 1 told you once your engage.
ment was an unreal thing and that
l did not consider 1t at all. Later I
took that back. Now l can tell you
that it is a very real thing, hut it ia
different o with me. l have suffered
a shock. Something's the matter with
my world. 1t is not so bold or conf
dent.
What I'm getting ut is this" lie
held up the manuscript. "This ts Mr..
Sidney's diary. I have talked to Mrs.
Sidney. She thinks, as l think. that
you should read it. You'll probably
want to confirm what l say. You'll
have to ask Mrs. Sidney. l know you
are itching to read it. I also know
that If n Of your scruples inter.

and here's the manuscript.

man. That's why I've always liked
you, although l can't say much for
your intelligence. But you're honest.
I'm not honest. but I'm intelligent.

to make the best Of. and I haven't
been foolish about scruples.

"That's copy-book stuff that's so ir.

extraordinary about me Is my candor.
My ideas do prevail. hut the people
who adopt them have less frankness.
But what l want to say is that Pm

probably think 1t an act of contrition.
1t isn't at all. but you'll think it so.

Hartley House

in the tree; each had punch from the
great bowl, and each. coming to shake
Mr.. Sidney's hand, was given by Jed
an envelope which. l learned after
ward, contained a hundred-dollar bill.
There was no constraint and no
awkwardness such as might mark
such proceedings; the people of the
house knew Mr.. Sidney too we'll. One
of the maids kissed him. and then We
had them all doing 1t.
I was fearful that the excitement
would injure him. but he was placid.
smiling and happy When we were
alone. we sat an hour by the fire. and
then l dismissed every n peremptOr-
lily.
Jed, who had been about his duties.
returned. The fire was tended. An
other bottle Of wine was ordered. l
had my last look at Mr.. Sidney alive
as l stood by the door giving Jed
his final Instructions Tor the night.
Jed sat in the armchair. All the
lights except n by Jed'si chair had
been extinguished. The Persian cat
was stretched by Mr.. Sidney's side.
The canaries were asleep perched on
the head of his bed. The fire was
glowing.
GOOD night, Mr.. Sidney" said.
"Good night, Jed. A pleasant eve,
ming"
"Good night, DOCTOR" said Mr.. Sid
ney. ".Just a minute, boy. Come here"
He reached out his hand.
Goodbye" he said.
