ASK MUNITION RELEASE
Paris, Oct 6--(Byr The l&ssoeiate(
dors dispatched note to Ger.
many demanding the immediate re.
lease of three ships loaded with
munitions for Poland, which are be-
ing held in the Kiel canal by the Ger
man authorities. The note specifi-
cally mentions the Danish ship Dor
rit, but there are two other ships
which also are being held. "
Germany has taken the position
that she is neutral in the Russo
Polish war and that therefore she
could not permit the passage Of the
ships, which are destined for Danzig.
The, ambassadors point out in their
note that Germany's attitude con-
stitutes a direct violation of the
treaty of Versailles, inasmuch as the
treaty specifies that the Kiel canal
is free waterway f0r~all nations of
the world
The note is couched in the strong
est terms and leaves no room for
further discussion on the part of
Germany.

with the brood Of little Dalrymples,

whole career, when he and Ivy were

Evans put out one hand. seized the
bit Of finery and pressed 1t to his

for Ivy had nearly lost her balance.
She had witnessed the fervent gesture
OF Evans In the mirror. She stepped
TO the floor, her face crimson, her eyes
showing half fright, and breathless
with emotion. In intense tones he
whispered:

Mrs. Dalrymple abruptly entered the
room and Evans had no further OPP

was offered and he gave heed to the

His eyes glowed now, and there was

MILLION SOLDIERS COULDN'T

This film as available will be dis

The AmericanizatiOn work which Is
being performed by the army at its re-

greatest advances that has recently

show the classes In the various grades
the teaching Of English and elemen-

number Of views Of the supervised re-.
creational activities of the new soldier.
When il is realized that one out of
every four men drafted into the army
during the World War was unable To
inteligently read the daily newspaper,
the value to the country Of the army's
educational work can be better appre-
ciated.
That over 1000, 900 men. citizens of
our country, which prides itself upon
its educational advantages, could be-
classified as uliterate is astounding,
hut had the entire man power of the

Shella had been sent 20 the I'LL
country because OF poor health. Her
Aunt Gwendolen, In care-free pleasure
loving life, could not realize or sym
pathiZe with frailness, and the con-
stantly added tasks OF the city apart
ment had grown TO be more than Shela
could bear. She must 80 away, the
doctor said. and soon. Pretty. fashion
able Aunt Gwen petuluntly objected.
But the doctor was firm, and scrib-
bled certain country address ON his
prescription pad Tell Mrs. Saun-
ders sent YOU" he ordered crisply,
and SheIla had gone.
The money question was not very
important one; living expenses In the
far away village were not those Of the
city. Aunt Gwen none too graclously
volunteered assistance from her sufli-
client store. 1T Is due you for your
servlcea," the old doctor drily re-
marked.
Sheila was not unhappy In her
isolation. Al first there was the novel
sensation of freedom. Never had she
been free TO seek JOY or relaxation
and then she found delight In planning
walks of exploration about the coun-
try. High upon the hill side, she
viewed great red house from her
small window In Mrs. Saunders home.
Sheila wondered who had selected
that lonely space for the lowered
abode, and went down at last to ask
her hostess.
That's the old Wren place" Mrs.
Saunders told her. Used 10 he great
dolngs there when | was girl and
Miss Wren was girl too. Thought
we were honored 10 be asked TO one
Of her fine parties, but now she's plumb
alone. Folks all died OFF, and Worthy

used to say she was In love with the
man her sister married. ! don't know,
but Worthy and Ben Temple were
friends from childhood and when

The prompt response of the pretty
girl at his side brought from the young
man an astonished stare.
81 will stay with her" Sheila re-
piled, and when the SHOWS Of the fol-
lowing December were heaped about
the great house doorway, Miss Wren
admonshcd her nephew concerning
his frequent visits.
I'm afraid you are taking too much
time from business, Jack dear" she
said. though, of course, Sheila and I
love 10 have you about"
"Shella," that young man answered
with satisfaction, has agreed TO have
me about for the rest of her natural
life. That, Of course, includes you,
Aunt Worthy"

Good !" nodded Evans briskly. "Tn

people will suppose l am giving them
an advance advertising stunt. Some

ed the old circus man.
One OF the favorite "stunts" of Ross
Evans had been to make his advance
route with the high single-seated
buggy and a pair Of the circus rein
deers. He was proud Of his team.
II was a 20-mile drive to Weston.
Late in the afternoon. arrayed in
Santa Claus costume, Evans started on
his trip. Mrs. Dalrymple had the lit
tie ones posted at the windows, and
the Christmas tree was lighted. At
the sound OF sleigh bells she switched
on the outside electric light. Into the
yard roadway came the most ravlshlng-
~, delightful Krlss Kringle with his
wonderful relndeers bedecked and daz-
cling with cleaning tlnsel and holly.
It was like dream, those ensuing
two hours. And Ivy assisted, and II
seemed like paradise to the wanderer
to revel amidst such joyous friendli-
ness. And when the little ones had
gone to bed, as on that other Christ
WAS eve, he stood beside Ivy.
Il am going to tell you what my
heart longed to impart to you just two
years ago tonight" he said.

for had hoped" and she fitted from
the room. II was to return wearing
the rose-colored sash.
He knew 1t was his answer as she
hid her blushing face. AS he drew her
to his arms peal Of merry Christmas
bells echoed forth. And amid the JOY
and glamor and love OF that radiant
hour, neither saw the shadow Of an
other parting.

Shella thought the story over as she
started up the hill. Miss Wren was
In her sprlngtime garden when she got
there.
$50 you would like to see my flow
ers?" she said. "Come right In, you
will be most welcome; pleasing vlsI-
tors are a rarity with me-"
Sheila returned to the farmhouse
laden with spring blooms, and happy
friendship also came TO bloom between
the lonely old woman, and the young.
The girl found most of her comfort
that summer upon the plllared veran-
das Of Miss Wren's home.
As fall came and fallen leaves
cracked beneath her feet In Miss
Wren's garden, Shella was loath to
60 back to the prison OF Aunt Ovens
close apartment. Worthy Wren had
profited, too, by the girls companion
ship. She often laughed softly In an
echo OF almost forgotten laughter,

tea table was drawn before II. The
white head was bent close TO the gold
en-brown one, when the doOibell
changed. Shella FASTENED to answer.
A young man stood there IN the moon

natured face.

"Come In" she invited. "and have
