beauty. Yet when I think of him in
cold blood. far away from the glamor
of his presence, am convinced from
his cynical speech. and the look which

one who should be deeply distrusted.
So l think, and so. too. thinks my lit

| could do without her. In only one
! matter has she ever gone against my
wishes. Twice my boy has asked her
to marry him, for he loves her de-
votedly, but each time she has re-
fused him. l think that if any one
could have drawn him into the right
| path it would have been she, and that
! his marriage might have changel his
whole life; but now, alas! it is too
late-for ever too late!
Now, Mr.. Holmes, you know the
people who live under my roof, and
shall continue with my miserable
story.
When we were taking coffee in the
drawlng-room that night, after dinner
told Arthur and Mary my experience
and of the precious treasure which we
had under our roof, suppressing only
/ the name of my client. Lucy Parr
who had brought in the coffee, had,
am sure, left the room; but l cannot
swear that the door was closed. Mary
and Arthur were much interested, and
wished to see the famous coronet but
| thought it better not to disturb it.
! Where have you put it," asked
Arthur.
In my own bureau
Well, / hope to goodness the

/ Oh any old key will fit that bu

What would the circus do without
the stately white ring horses and the
visions in pink and gauze who piroutte
on their backs? Well, it would be
something like the circus without the
peanuts or elephants or the blood
sweating behemoth," wouldn't it? In
the ladies' principal riding act Of

"resin-backs," as the bare back horses
are termed.
Perhaps you have often noticed the
similarity in the costumes of the lady

dancers. The similarity does not end
with the costumes, for daily the riders

room without another word.
When he was gone l unlocked my
bureau, made sure that my treasure
was safe. and locked it again. Then
started to go round the house to see
that all was secure-a duty which
usually leave to Mary, but which
thought it well to perform myself that
night. AS l came down the stairs
saw Mary herself at the side window
of the hall, which she closed and fast
ened as l approached.
"'Tell me, dad said she, looking,
thought, a little disturbed, did you
give Lucy, the maid, leave to go out

many-hued pageant that opens the
performances in the rings, on the
stages and in the air. One thousand
people and four hundred animals take
part in this spectacle. Not only do
these exercises add to the natural
of the young ladies of the tanbark
rings, but the steps are used in their
acts. One never sees a rider landing
clumsily after a leap through the
hoops, and that is largely due to the
ballet work. The riding families with
the Howe-Van Amburg circus have
five or six generations of English,
Spanish and American riders behind
them
The young riding stars were at
home on the backs of ring animals in
their toddling days. Formerly they
would have been billed at Mademoi-
selle this or Senorita that, but in these
days, simplicity is the rule among the
aristocracy of the riding folk, as it is
throughout the big show; hence, the
use of the plain and unadorned Miss. "

The Theatres

George Arliss, marking his screen
debut in THE Devil" showing at the
Murrette Theatre, takes into his hand
the destinies of an artist, a model, a
banker and his wife. He has marked
these people for his own kingdom of
misery Out of their Truth and Good
ness he would create Evil. But, that
Truth can, and does overcome Evil, is
one Of the points of interest in this
photoplay triumph.
Having induced Mr.. Arliss to do
what he had long refused to do-make
a moving picture-Associated Exhib-

that should reach the height of per-
lection in its every detail.
The cast is a small one, but every
role is an important one and worthy

lists as Sylvia Dreamer, Lucy Cotton,
Edmund Lowe, Roland Bottomley and
Mrs. Arliss were engaged.

C, CONNAWAY VISITS
AMERICA ON BUSINESS

Cass Connaway, formerly of Liberty.
American counsellor at law, with Of
fees in Paris and Berlin. is in Wash
ington on business. He arrived in
New York July 16 and will sail for
France Wednesday, proceeding imme-
diately to Berlin. He called on Sen
ators Watson and New and Repre-
sentative Merrill Moores, of the Indi-
annapolis district.
Mr.. Connaway has been in Europe
most of the time since 1918, when he
went to Paris as legal representative
of the Y NJ. c. A. After the war he
engaged in private business. He will
return to America next September.
The German people are getting
along WE'LL" he said. Everyone is
busy and economic conditions are
first class. Disarmament, which was
forced on the nation by the Versailles
treaty, was the best thing that ever
happened to it. Man power and money
were left free to follow pursuits of
peace"
Mr.. Connaway said that the Harding
administration was regarded with IA
vor by the Germans, but that the res
olution of peace passed by the con-
gress and signed by the president at
tracted little attention.
Among Indianians in Berlin Mr.. Con-
naway met frequently are Howard
Webster Adams Of indianapolis, who
is a representative of the department
of commerce, and John H. Kiplinger,
of Rushville, who is member of the
restitution committee of the repara-
tons commission.
"Kiplinger has made splendid i'm
preston" said Mr.. Connaway. HE
served as an unofficial representative
of this government and when he was
about to withdraw the allied nations
formally requested that he continue

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC

It has been rumored that we would
further reduce our wage scale. After
having investigated our neighboring
towns we find that our wage scale Is
Still lower than the majority. Also
we have not noticed any material re-
duction in our living expenses, espec-
tally rents. We have decided by unan-
imous vote to hold our scale as 1t is,
namely, 85 cents per hour for jour-
neymen carpenters and $1.00 per hour
for foremen. We are all for the up
building of Lakeland and spend our
wages right here at home, thereby
helping to keep our BUSINESS men going
and we do earnestly ask these same
business men for their encourage
ment and support. Let us get to-
gether and work together and if we
must reduce, let's come down to-

PROMINENT RED
/ CROSS WORKER
MAKES STATEMENT

Mrs. Ruth Atkinson, of the south
ern division headquarters of the
American Red Cross is a frequent Wis
itor to Lakeland, where a definite at
tempt is now being made to estab'
lish the Red Cross work on sound
basis that will make it the influence
that it should be in this community.
Mrs. Atkinson, in regard to the Red
Cross as an agency for carrying on
local relief work, makes the follow
ing statement:
For a long time Lakeland business
men have felt the need of some
agency which will be responsible for
investigating the many calls for re-
lief and for properly dispensing nee
essary charity. Too many calls
which apparently are urgent prove to
be doubtful and a generous hearted
public, in a city where transients
are numerous, is often imposed upon
A paid secretary who is trained to
investigate cases is necessary to the
proper distribution of funds and there
is not a business man in the city OF
Lakeland who will not appreciate the
plan of the Red Cross to give neces-
sary service.
There Is no Associated Charities
here and since the Red Cross has
extended it's service to meet the need
of the communities it serves by plac.
ing trained social workers in charge
of this type of work. we are asking
this service for Lakeland"

AN ORGANIZATION OF
PARENTS AND TEACHERS
4 PLANNED FOR LAKELAND

The value of a parent-teachers or.
ganization to a community has been
demonstrated by many cities. In such
an association the parents and teach
ers meet to discuss the welfare OF
the schools and the pupils and the
cooperation thus achieved has al
ways so far as is known resulted in
a better understanding and sympathy
between parents and teachers and
the working out of plans for the bet
terment of the schools and the vel
fare of the children in general.
Interest in such an association has
grown up in Lakeland, and the Child
Conservation League now invites all
women who wish to unite in such a
body to meet with the League at its
regular meeting Wednesday, at $3.50
in the Mems Bible Glass room at the
First Methodist church, when steps
will be taken to perfect the organi-
cation.

The bee keepers organization for

who have dates pending please be pa.
tient; will get to you as soon as pos
sible.
The citrus bloom throughout the
county seems heavier than usual. es-
pecially on the Valencias and grape
fruit, so the prospects for another
year seem exceedingly encouraging.
If you have a heavy bloom it Is
hardly necessary to use Black Leaf 40
with the lime-sulphur spray for
thrips, as 1t will be impossible for the
tree to carry all the fruit 1t sets;
cases like this really make the thrips
blessing in disguise.
