est when the knife fell on appropria-
tions. Recently the county commits
sioners of Douglas county assured the
state commission that bids would be
asked at once for completion of the
county's link of the fort-to-fort high
way. The commission, however, has

Under action of the state commits
sion, Douglas county lost a total of
$1S4,319. Neosho county, which has
failed to let contracts for its share
of the oil belt highway, loses its ap-
preparation of $104,9S3. An allow
ance of $16,250 to Kearney county
was also cancelled.

commission points out. tends to keep
domestic labor employed andzrelieves
unsettled conditions thru industrial re-
adjustments.
To Care for Bad Spots
by going ahead with road work
now,'' said NJ. W. watson, state high
way engineer, some bad spots will
be cared for and the need of general
road construction demonstrated. The
commission declined to aid several
counties where work already is being
done and which have previously had
considerable allotments. The COM
mission feels appointments should
be used at once" .~
Several allotments are now hanging
in the balance. If the commissioners
in affected counties proceed at once
the communities will retain benefits
of the federal aid. Otherwise the
money will be given to counties which
are ready to proceed with road work.

FOOD DRAFTS FOR RUSSIA


Mr.. Hoover, as Chairman of the
American Relief Administration an
nounces the following plan to pro-
vide relief in Russia by individuals
to meet this need and at the same
time in America:
(a) Anyone may remit funds by
mail only, payable to the American
Relief Administration on New York
draft, money order, or certified check
in sums of not less than $40 and in
multiples of $40 through the Amer
ican Relief Administration offices in
New York, Washington, and London
for the benefit of any person or group
in Russia.
(b) These remittances must be
accompanied by full name and ad-
dress of beneficiary in Russia and
such remittances will be advised to
the headquarters Of the American Re-
lief Administration in Moscow.
(c) The Moscow office will direct
the various American Relief Admin
istration children's warehouses to get
in touch with the beneiciaries and
deliver food to them corresponding in
amount to the money paid.
(d) If beneficiary can not be
found within 80 days, remittances
will be refunded to the purchaser.
Advice of delivery of the food will,
wherever possible, be sent to the pur-
chaser.
(e) Food will consist of a selec-
tion, according to stocks available,
from the following commodities:
Flour, bacon, lard, vegetable oil, tea,
canned milk, hominy, sugar, cocoa,
rice, beans. Food will be furnished at
cost, but one-quarter of the food pur-
chased with each remittance will be
handed to the canteens for the gen.
eral feeding of destitute children;
three quarters being delivered to the
beneficiary of the remittance.
(f) The Relief Administration has
so far established warehouses at
Petrograd, Moscow, Samara, Sim
birsk, Kazan, and Saratov, and while
orders will be accepted on other re-
gions their execution will depend up
on arrangements for extending the
system. Further warehouses will be
established in the course of extern

and if demands for food remittances

s'"I wouldn't have to worry about those letters then, would I? They are somewhere in the house, and they'd be burned to ashes. But that isn't all that would be burned. You could may be crawl out, but you couldn't carry the guns, and you couldn't carry the pantry full of food. You're. nearly eighty miles up here from the nearest occupied house, with two pair of snowShoes for the three of you and one dinky pistol. And you can't walk at all. It would be a nice pickle, wouldn't it? Wouldn't you have fat chance of getting down to civiliza- tion?'
 The voice no longer held steady. It trembled with passion. This was no idle threat. The brain had already seized upon the scheme with every in- tention of carrying it out. The will derness. lay stark and bare, stripped Of all deluSiOn-nOt only in the snow world outside but in the hearts of these two men, its sons.
 'I have only one hope" Lennox re- piled. 'I hope, unknown to me, that Dan has already dispatched those let ters. The arm of the law is long, Cranston. It's easy to forget that fact up here. It will reach you in the end"
 Cranston turned through the door, into the kitchen. He was gone long time. Lennox heard him at work the crinkle of paper and then a pour ing sound around the walls. Then he heard the sharp crack of match. An instant later the first wisp of smoke came curling. pungent with burning oil, through the corridor.
 "You crawled from your couch to reach that gun," Cranston told him when he came in. Let's see you crawl out now"
 LennOX'S answer was a curSe-the Last, dread outpouring of an unbroken will. He didn't look again at the gilt tering eyes. He scarcely watched CranstOn's further preparations: the oil poured on the rugs and furnishings, the kindIing placed at the base of the curtains. Cranston was trained in this work. He was taking no chances on the fire being extinguished. And Len nox began to crawl toward the door. He managed to grasp the corner of the blanket on the divan as he went, and he dragged it behind him. Pain

 Lennox seemed to be studying his wasted hands. "It'S a chance, but it isn't worth it." he said at last. You'll have fight enough without tugging at a heavy sled. It will take all night to build 1t. and it would cut down your chances of getting out by pretty near half. Remember the ridges, Dan"

I know how things are, you two-more than you know yourselves-and in the end you'll be happy. But me-I'm too tired to make the try. I don't care about it enough. I'm going to wave you good by, and smile, and lie here and let the cold come down. You feel warm in a little while"
 But she stopped his lips with her hand. And he bent and kissed it.
 "If anybody's going to stay with you," Dan told them in a clear. firm voice, tits going to be me. But aren't any of the cabins occupied?"
