\ The vote was 279 TO SO and a group
Eof women. who had been watching prog
Tess OF the bill from the galleries, ap-
lplauded when the result was announced.
Opposition to the measure was voiced
chiefly on the ground that it would in
fringe on States rights. During debate
to-day Miss Alice NJ. Robertson, Repub-
aican, Oklahoma, only woman member
of the House, urged defeat OF the bill.
while its passage was advocated by Rep
Fesentative Mondell, the Republican
header.
The bill provides for cooperation be-

nnd an additional $4,000 provided the
State contributes like amount. The
Balance OF the annual fund would be
distributed among States according to

Government.
Miss Robertson, in her speech. took a
fling at club women, who, she said, sit
nt ease in comfortable homes worrying
about other peoples children and get a
thrill over tea cups by passing resolu-
lions designed to bring about new or
der in Governmental affairs.
She declared that the bill would inter
fere with effective work now being done
by individual and by State, municipal
and private agencies.

said. but God has given me mothers

She was frequently applauded by both
proponents and opponents of the bill.

Nobody was there. or apparently had
been there, since the Indians.
Now the Sheriff has been informed
of another cave, a fine roomy one, in
wild Westchester county. where the
missing witnesses are said to be. But
there won't be another expedition. The
Sheriff IS convinced that the Meade fam

loved and rode away, and her loyal
heart deeply resented Philip Cartaret's
cavalier behavior, but she respected
AIMS reticence and his name was
never mentioned between them.
Ann had subscribed to & number Of
New York papers since Philip had
left, terrible extravaganza, and every
morning when the mail came In she
fastened to the leafy retreat which
she and Phil had discovered and made
their own, and with beating heart eag-
erly scanned the news Of the great
city, which was only name to her as
1t seemed to bring Philip and his world
nearer. This morning she read the
pages mechanically. her subconscious
mind thinking wedding present.
Handmade Rag Rugs for Sale"
Rag rugs! She caught her breath.
Instantly her mind registered picture
OF Elaine's spontaneous enthusiasm
over the beautifully braided rugs
which Ann herself had made from ne
cessity. And Elaine had said they
people were paying all kinds of prices
for them.
The next few days were busy ones.
Aunt Martha dyed and AIMS busy I'm
/ gers tore and braided and sewed. Aunt
Martha grumbled cheerfully over the
dainty colors which Ann insisted
should go in, her prosaic soul craving
serviceable colors, but the rug that
grew under the nimble fingers of the
! girl who was weaving all the beauty of
her own love drama into the reality Of
another's was fairy rug Of dainty
blue and pink and white, with daring
dsshes of black, and as piece de re-
sistance, the center was made from
the odds and ends of the material left
from the very same sprigged muslin
which Philip had 80 loved to see his
Dream Girl" wear.
At last 1t was done and dispatched,
the rosy cloud, in which Ann had been
living mysteriously disappeared and
life became once more dull gray and
the days empty.
A few days before the wedding the
paper contained an account of the COM
ing ceremony, list of the fashionable
bridesmaids and of the beautiful, cost
" gifts which had been sent the pros
pective bride. AS she read, AIMS face
burned with shame. All at once her
gift, into which she had woven SO
much love, seemed ridiculous, and her
very soul seemed to shrink from hu-
initiation. Even the eagerly waited
for acknowledgment. IL only a formal
one, had not arrived.
So deep was her depression that
even the cracking branches did not
I break her reverie until deep. vibrant
voice startled her into almost u1believ-
able ecstasy. She cared not one whit
for his explanations. The past was
gone. the present was enough. But the
future: we'll. Elaines wedding was q
double one and Philip always teasing
~ declaped that both brides were total
\ " eclipsed by the admiration accorded
