TRANSPORTED. Not curl, hardly o
wave broke the sweep Of her red
golden crown. She had banished ev-
cry dimple, gentled her dancing feet
to a softer rhythm. All in white.
clinging and vaporous, she seemed to
float rather than walk across grass
already cool with dew. Lifting her
head deerlike from her low garden
seat, she smiled up at Wainright, a
smile of primal allurement, saying
softly: "Now is the time for wonder
stories. You must tell me one-the
one most care to hear"
"What is it?" he asked.
"You promised to tell It," anxiously.
"If 1 know it." he said indulgently,
in his best elder brother voice.
Lorraine smiled again. "If not you
who does" she murmured. ut is
the story Of yourself-tell it from the
very beginning"
wainwright gasped. Half minute
before he would have sworn to himself
and vailed off. Now instead he flung
himself on the turf, set his chin In
his palms-and made the beginning
of the end.
1t was a profound social observer
who said: "There are no such trou-
blesome ghosts at maturity as the un-
committed sins of our youth" VAIN
right proved the saying. His youth
had been hard and driving, untouched
by merry dalliances, unsweetened by
saving follies. Naturally his ghost
dancing made him a spectacle for gods
and men. But he cared nothing for
that. Men might scoff, women sneer;
all he wanted was to battle himself In
the sunlight of Lorraine's eyes and
let her gentle feet dance over his
heart if they chose.
Maben tried rescues many and vari-
Gus, partly on his own account, partly
also because Of real friendliness. But
none of them got him anywhere. He
dared not risk open expostulation-
the habit Of reverence was too strong
in him. Lorraine would neither talk
nor listen to him-no more than she
would to her mother or the ministes.
Now and then she held chuckling
conferences with her father-who nev-
er since the day she was born had seen
anything wrong in her. But even
he at length grew, not anxious, but
compassionate. "Put i'm out Of mis-
cry gently, honey" he counseled.
"When you don't want fish throw
him back, instead Of leaving him flop
ping and messing up the bank"
A cryptic saying-perhaps 1t was
in obedience to- it that a month af-.
ter Wainrlght's beguilement Lorraine
again sat in the low chair. bending
toward him on the grass at her feet.
But instead of saying anything she
spread her hands, palms downward
palms all pink and satin-smooth, melt
ing into round baby wrists. VAIN
right caught them-she did not draw
tnem away. AS ne maue 10 lay Que
against his cheek she said softly:
"Pity they are so smooth and weak
they quite spoil my type"
Nothing can spoil your type, what
ever it may be-" wainwright murmured,, !,
trying to kiss a wrist. She drew 1t
gently away, saying rogulshly: "Fie !!
You are not going back on yourself,
surely! Remember-you called nae a
dimpled milkmaid!"
$50 I did" wainwright said sitting
up suddenly. "Where's Maben, I won
der!"
Here" said Maben looming through
the dusk "But don't swear-there's
pair Of us. She's going to marry
Heath Maclay next month"

MEXICO'S MICROBIC
PRISON REFORMED:
OLD PLAGUE SPOT
CBy Associated Press1

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 3O-Belem
prison which has been described by
guidebooks as a "microbic spot to be
avoided by sightseers" no longer de-
serves that name. Formerly known as
one of the plague spots of Mexico in
which were yearly gathered hundreds
of thousands of offenders of the law
who were herded together in horrible
filth, this prison has recently been
renovated and now provides almost
comfortable quarters for the 1900 or
so prisoners within its walls. ?
Schools for the teaching of manual
training and the rudiments of educa-
ton are now maintained, the 800 wom-
en- in the prison being divided into five
groups for instruction. Such schools
are not yet provided for the men but,
according to Director Vasquez, they
will be installed within the next few
months. Meals are wholesome and
sufficient.
Shower Baths Installed.
Shower baths have been installed
and several large fountains have been
placed within the patios where those
who have the inclination may wash
their clothes. There is large parade
ground for both men and women and
the rules of discipline are few
Smoking is allowed at all times and
every prisoner may receive such ad
ditions to his daily bill of fare as his
circumstances permit. Special attend
ants are provided for the small chill
dren of women prisoners of whom
there are many, the authorities also
providing them with food and a place
to sleep.
Death Alley" has been abolished
This was long corridor through
which the condemned were led or
their way to execution and in almost
so years there is no record of one es
Gaping or returning alive. No execu
tons are permitted within the prison
Belem has been notorious for its
unhygienic conditions and to be sent
enced to Belem was considered the
worst fate imaginable to be melted out

AMERICAN OIL men,
MEXICAN OFFICIALS,
STUNNING PUBLICITY

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 30-Govern-
ment officials and the executive heads
of American oil companies, who con-
ferred yesterday relative to petroleum
problems are reserved as to the sub
iects discussed at the first meeting
held late yesterday afternoon.
In interviews with the local news
paper men the oil men confined their
remarks to praise of the delightful
climate of Mexico City and their de-
sire for an amicable adjustment of all
questions now pending.
The visitors paid a visit of respect
yesterday morning on George T. Sum-
merlin, American charge daffairs here,
but Mr.. Summerlin later explained
there was nothing significant in their
call. He declared the American am
bassy had concluded it's part in the
conference when it had arranged for a
meeting between the oil men and
representatives Of the government.
Bring Personal Letter.
It Is understood the oil executives
brought a personal letter from Pres
ident Harding to President ObregoE,
but declaration is made that it was
merely a letter of introduction, and
was not official
The Americans met Adolfo De La
Huerta, secretary of the treasury
again this morning and later were
presented to President Obregon, who
was understood to have invited his
entire cabinet to meet the oil men
This conference was to be brief and
informal and was considered a step
preliminary to the taking up of con
troversial questions later in the day

Over Troubled District

MADRID. Aug. 30.-Spanish aviators
operating with the forces opposing re-
bellious Moors are conducting extern
hive explorations of the plains and
mountains in the troubled district in
Northeastern Morocco, says an official
statement issued here. Hostilities be-
tween the Spanish and Moors appear
to have died down, as the statement
declared nothing new had occurred.
Rumors have been current that a
small Spanish column was surrounded
by Moorish tribesmen near Ell Araish,
a town on the Atlantic coast Of Moros-
CO, but they have been officially
denied.

HEAVEN IS
Continued from Page One.)

prepare to die, prepare to meet thy
God bye and bye in the sky, and then
contrast it with the major emphasis
of the preaching of Jesus Christ, and
not the wide divergence. How little
He had to say about death; but He
prea ched life continually.
while Jesus said My kingdom is
not of this world He only means by
this that it's source is higher than
this world. He teaches US to pray
Thy kingdom come down to men, and
thy will be done in this earthly king
dom, even as it is done in heaven.
The Sermon on the Mount is the con-
stitution of kingdom, not in the sky,
but on the earth.
Must Claim Citizenship
I'VE have appealed to men to try
to serve God, to make a desperate ef-
fort to please Him, so that bye and
bye He will admit them into His king
dom. But Jesus insists that we shall
claim our citizenship now Jesus did
not teach us that we might finally
get to heaven, but that heaven might
come to US.
Another evil resulting from the
idea that Jesus came to save us for a
kingdom in the sky has been the idea
that this world belongs to the devil
and that God has allowed him to fore
close mortgage on it This world
is the headqua rters of the kingdom of
satan, and that we might as well
abandon this world to him, and that
the sooner the better
This idea has led into monasticism.

and sacrificed their lives as monks,
with the idea that the kingdom of God
is on the other side of death. That
this is the devils world, and that it
will please God if we hide away from
its joys, its flowers, and music and
the sanctity of its home life, and hide
behind the stone walls, and have as
little to do as possible with this sin
cursed, devil-mortgaged world.
Right Best Policy
"A great many no doubt do right be-
cause they think it the best policy.
Many men refrain from crime because
they fear the law. If a man would
say to you, L would steal only | fear
the law, you would say that in his
heart he is thief God looks on the
heart. If you are only keeping His
law to save yourself from eternal
danger, or that you may gain heaven,
then your heart is not right. Heaven
is not future reward, it is a present
life. 1t is our will submerged in His
will, our mind in His mind, our heart
in His great heart throbbing with love
for the world, and the reward that
comes day by day in serving God is
all sufficient
THE kingdom will sweep on until
there shall be no more war, until
every man shall be to every other
man a brother. until there shall be
perfect harmony between the earth,

shall be completely answered. Thy

AUTO TRAFFIC RULES
ADOPTED IN SHANGHAI
CARS MUST USE BELLS
fRy Associated Press

SHANGHAI, Aug. 30.-As a means
OF preventing automobile accidents
the Health Precautionary Association
an organization composed of leading
Chinese of Shanghai, recently pre-
pared a list of suggestions among
which are several of engaging novelty.
The suggestions which were adopted
at a meeting after lengthy debate were
submitted to the municipal council of
the International Settlement. Among
the measures that the organization ad'
vocates are the following;
'All motor cars have rubber tired
wheels and run without noise. 1t is
too late to blow a horn when a car
has already collided with pedestrian
A car should have q very small bell
ringing all the time so that when
pedestrians hear it they can get out
of the way
This bell should be half the size of
q bicycle bell Each car should have
a speed limit, but the fire brigade, doc
| tors and police motor cars should be
exempted.
Must Label chauffeurs.
! "A chauffeur should wear a brass
| badge on his breast The badge should
| be three inches in diameter and should
have his name and the number of his
license in English and Chinese inscrib
ed thereon The badge should be
issued by the municipal council at a
few taels each. Then a man not licen
sed will not dare drive a car
"All motor trucks should have rails
or iron chains around the cars to in
sure safety and in case of collision
cargo will be prevented from falling
and injuring pedestrians Cargo
should not be piled too high to pre-
vent danger when passing over thu
bridges.
Assistant for Each Driver.
There should be one licensed chauf
feur and an assistant to take charge o
each motor car or truck. The assistan
should sit behind and keep a lookou
when the car turns around, goes back
, ward, enters or leaves the garage
The owner of the car will not min
spending little money in employing
e an assistant chauffeur
+ After person is killed by a motto
: car a wax image of the decease
should be made and placed in roor
/ and any chauffeur who causes injurie
to others should be locked up in thi
e room so that he will see the image an
feel sorry. This may cause him t
+ repent. This has been introduced i
e America and has produced successfu
t results"
