"Blanket Variety"

We were honeymooning in Arizona.
OF course, we had our ever-faithfuI
camera with US. On the principal
street corner Of a small town I saw
an old Indian squaw sitting on the
sidewalk with her pottery on exhibi-
ton about her. l thought that would
be a dandy picture to take back home.
My wife and l stopped in front Of the
squaw, and, knowing an Indians su.
perstition about being photographed.
we hesitated. Just then the proprietor
of the store in front of which she was
squatting opened the door and / In
quired of him: 'Do you think she
would object to our taking a snapshot
of herr" He said he didn't know, that
we might try it, and while we were
discussing the situation the suuaw
spoke up in excellent English and
with decided gestures: mo, I don't

WHEELS TURNING IN BELGIUM
Minor Industries Have Resumed oper.
alton, but All Embarrassed
by Lack Of Fuel.

Most of the minor Industries in Bel
GUM are said to have resumed opera
ton, although all have been more or
less embarrassed by the lack of fuel
and the uncertainty of delivery of raw
materials. There is no lack of sugar
in Belgium, and a surplus is available
for export. Nearly all the sugar mills
were kept in operation by the Germans
throughout the war.
To avert labor disturbances, the gov
eminent has taken an active part in
disputes between the workers and m
ployers with gratifying results. While
wages have increased In most indus
tries at least 100 per cent. and in some
instances considerably more, they have
not kept pace with the increase in the
cost of living. Labor union leaders
have been generally disposed to adopt
conciliatory methods where possible,
and the government has been able to
force arbitration in nearly all cases
where trouble has arisen.

BELGIUM SKETCHES
"N'OubEons
Pas"
BY Katharine EgsIeston Roberts.

Copyright, 1920. Western Newspaper Upion)
Near a field where the yellow grass
struggled to grow in the s~hell-holes,
wnite-faeed, pinohed little children
played among the dead fruit trees.
Summer had come and gone in a land
once more at peace, but the trees had
shown no green. for the Boche had
murdered them, and the fields had pro-
duced no grain, for the Hun had
stepped them in poison. Here in the
chill autumn mists, the children
played to forget that, into the half of
their house that remained, the night
wind would blow through the shrapnel
chinks.
She heard them shouting and sing
ing and the gaunt m paused In
her work to look through the wooden
barred window. How could they be
so happy? But they didn't know what
winter was bringing. She had to face
that alone. They knew only that jump
ing games kept one warm. They were
her children, hers, and she must find
a way. Those slender legs that looked
too small to lift the heavy sabots-
she must keep them dancing, somehow.
MISUNDERSTANDING" the word
hummed in her head as she moved
about the 10 making up the beds
with their scanty coverings. If only
she had a mattress for the little ones,
1t would help to keep them warm.
If only the fields had answered her
prayer, If only the fruit trees had
bloomed! Her mouth grew sullen as
she thought of their stubborn refusal
to nourish her babies. She peered be-
tween the bars Of the window and
horror dilated her eyes. Those trees
were reaching for her children, trying
to seize them as they skipped about
their games. They were stretching
their hideous gray arms, snatching at
the frail little figures, and the fields
were sending up the mist to conceal
them in their crime-
She knew now, she knew. Round
and round whirred the chaos in her
head. That vas it, that was it-she
could see it all now clearly-more
,clearly-those fields, those trees-they
were infected with the venom Of the
Hun, they had become allies in his
fiendish scheme to squeeze out the
lives Of her children.
Shrieking, she ran from the house,
"Beware!" she cried to the children,

MISUNDERSTANDING" She Repeated
Beware, they are after you" and she
struggled with a dead tree whose
branches swayed in the wind.
With startled screams, the children
fed a little way, then turned to look.
But nothing came. No one pursued
them. Why did their mother cling to
that old tree? They ventured back.
They felt afraid of her and knew not
why. Some neighbors, who had heard
the calls across the fields, came has
tening and saw her as she loosed her
hold and fell.
They raised her to her feet. She
stared at them and at the children
whimpering in their fear, stared and
knew nothing till she saw the trees
and then the light Of vengeance lit her
face-the only light her mind was
doomed to know-and through her
hate-clenched teeth the warning came,
the words of not forgetting, the grim
chant she muttered through the years
to come, "N'oublions pas-n'oublions
jamais."

MUCH EXPLANATION IN ORDER
Young Wife Had to Be Satisfied as to
the Identity of Husbands
"Aima."

A husband, newly wed, and also q
graduate of the University Of South
ern California, went to attend a ban
quet on the campus with a few of his
college mates. He omitted relephon-
ing his wife.
When friend husband did arrive
home his wife was almost ready to
break off diplomatic relations.
Where in the world have you
been?" was her menacing question.
"Why, dearie, I have been out en-
joying the evening with my dear Alma
Mater"
"What?" calculated his wife, jump
ing to her feet. "Alma who?" Then
tears.
1t took the Grant head of the fam
lily just two hours and twenty-five
minutes to convince his heart-broken
helpmate that Alma Mater was not an
alluring vampire.-Los Angeles Times.

men re factors n making the boy or girl restless at school. It is also declared
that the present federal child labor law does not reach more than 100000 of
me p"o" working children over ter years Of age, as at least threefourths
OF these are the agricultural districts.
In many cases there are M schools to attend. The "back to the school"
drNe stimulated local surveys of the school resources. Some of the schools
were closed for the lack of teachers and the general report lays this lack to
te low salaries PAID. A few of the states met this condition by making a
minimum teaching salary from $1,000 to $1,000, but there are communities
where teachers are paid only $40 a month.
1t was the opinion of those conducting these campaigns that once the
parents were reached the ways and means of keeping the child in school would
be forthcoming

Schools must be made more at
tractive and parents more sensitive to
the value Of a completed education,
says this report. One reason for keep
ing children in school Is keeping them
out of industry before they are pre-
pared to assume these burdens. The
experience Of child welfare commit
