And A. G. Townley, because of auto

u story begins.
When Townley, the political boss,
saw his perfected organization and
his power, he forgot his desire. if he
ever had any. to assist mankind or
remedy evils OF which the farmers
complained. He thought only of more
power, more members. more dues,
more papers and a bigger organiza-
ton to promote industrial organiza-
tons, business enterprises and pro-
motion schemes that would bring
wealth and more power.
During 1917 the war and the fight
made upon Townley and his anti
war associates. had consumed and
lowered the reserve of his political
machine. He n1ust have immediate
dreamed of the Consumers United

Townley from holding anything in
his own nance. he sold in less than
a year over one million dollars of
Memberships at 500 each to
League members. Thus, through his
attorney. he controlled a million dol
lars paid him in money and notes.
He secured these funds through
League organizers who carried Gre
dentials signed by Townley, the pro-
moter, which stated that the COM
pany was being formed under the
auspices of the National Nonpartisan
League" This company was organ
lied along the lines of the League
with all the control in Boss Townley's
hands: with an agreement with each
member that a greater portion of the
membership fee" could be used in
the head Office of the company. And it
was used.
Townley, the promoter, had a
financial secretary a young man
who later gave the political poss
more trouble than a boy gets into
when he runs amuck in a hornets
nest. This financial secretary was

home.
or course the coming OF children

What S in a Name?
DORIS.
By Mildred Marshall.


Though etymologists do not di-
rectly connect Doris with Dorothy,
and some believe that she is merely
a modern version of a feminine fan
cy for name a trif1e out of the or
binary, it is impossible to believe
that her source was not Identical
with Dorothea and that strange but
correct reversal Theodore.
Such being the case, Doris comes
from one of the early Christian
Greek names, notably ThekIa. St.
Thekla was said to have been a
disciple of St. Paul and to have been
exposed to lions at Antioch. Instead
of tearing her to pieces. they
crouched at her feet, but nererthe-
less she was considered the first vir-
gin martyr. and no higher praise is
possible for a woman than to COM
pare her to st. Thekla.
From Thekla came the French
Teola and then. through the Eastern
Church, Theodore. signifying "di-
vine gift" and, much later, the in
correct Dorothea.

Massinger composed drama
