gis, she thought to further safeguard her daughter by appealing to her nephew. David Jacobs, who had been. in this county 12 years and who had become citizen. In quaint, little used language the mother wrote Jacobs asking him to send for SargiS, then living in Bridgeport, Conn.,, and If you like the young man you can to him in marriage"
 The next chapter in the little drama was enacted at the immigration Sta- fbon at Boston, where Blandina ar rived with friends When they ar rived they were disn1ayed to find that the three per cent immigration law prevented them from entering the country. Cousin Jacobs, meantime, had received the appeal of Mother Po1oS and was waiting BIandina with open arms. nor did Sargis forget that his prospective bride was arriving on this steamer. Then, when the joyful news was received from Washington that the quota were to be allowed to come into the United States, there were too many desiring that Blandina should make her home with them. Perhaps the mothers wishes would have been carried out from the begin ming if, the immigration authorities known of the trust that was given by the mother to David Jacobs, but they did not. Blandina was admitted in company with David Ella and his family who were bringing her to her betrothed.

When the immigration station doors closed behind this immigrant party Sargis was awaiting with an automobile and away they sped Upon learning that Blandina was slipping away Cousin Jacobs was furious He hadled a. taxi and started in hot pur- suit. He caught the party and had the young lover arrested for hdnap- ping. It mattered little to him that he was arrested for speeding.
 Wherein Jacobs Wins
 The court held hearings and mean time turned Blandinna over to the House of the Good Shepherd. The action to be taken seemed to revolve upon the girls age Her passport showed that she was but 14; she look ed 16. while Sargis claimed she was IT. Sargis' father was willing to keep the girl for his son until it. was proved that she was old. enough to marry, but the court, after admitting as evidence the two letters from Mother Polos to David Jacobs, de- cided that Blandina should be turned over to her cousin.
 This decision did not satisfy Shim- on Sargis- He appealed his case to Secretary of Labos Davis and insist ed that something be done by the inn migration authorities to secure to him Immigration Bureau ordered the girl arrested and returned to the Com missioner of Immigration, so that the case of her admission might again be heard and the facts determined as to

Here they remained while many of their friends, fortunate in having relatives or others in America who had means to assist them, left for the United States.
 Then one day Mother Polos received letter from Sargis- He loved little Bfandina, now approaching young womanhood. and he wanted to marry her. He sent money to pay her pas sage Blandina did not remember him, but what did that matter Times were hard in Bagdad and there was on relief in sight.

Washington, Sept. 2s.-Imperting a wife from a foreign country has it's difficulties, according to Shfmon Sar- gis, who. after paying for the trans portatbon of his intended bride from Mesopotamia, getting arrested for speeding and Kidnapping, paying out good money for attorneys fees. and being involved in other ways. finds himself just as wifeless as he ever was. The Secretary of Labor has just given the final jolt to Sargis-
 The story starts way back in the days before the World War. when Sar- gis left his home in Persia and came to the United States, leaving behind all the acquaintances of his youth. Among the friendships which he had formed was that of a family named Polos, consisting of a father. mother and a small daughter, black-eyed and pretty, but still mere child. During the ten years that followed little Blan- dina Polos forgot that she ever knew Shiuon Sargis, but not so easily was memory of the little child effaced from Sargis' reco1lections.
