 The plan suited Kingston, who made his way home to be received with enthusiastic murmurs when Annette knew Bob was really com ing.
 Bob in all his life, had never dressed with such precision as he did for that call. Unless he looked well, he knew he could not be at his utmost and more or less diffi- dent, case, and If Annette had had any idea at all in the back of her head that he was masher, she must be thoroughly convinced to ; night that 1t was untrue. If Annette could have heard that thought, she would have laugheds considering how perfectly absurd he had been-from her point of view-not to press the advantage she had given him, and most of all, that he had not with alacrity Jumped at her invitation to call.
 Impressions
 Bob was glad he looked well as he swung out of the automobile. and his long legs found their way up the walk. Funny the impression, though, tnat the magnificence of the place beat into his soul.

 This is a fine season. of the year to organize campfire units. since all the summer the girls will have op- portunity to go out on wonderful camps.
 To Pretend!
 At these, how fine to pretend to be an Indian maiden-two plaits over the shoulder-and to dress in ones pretty forest robe ornamented with vari-colored beads.
 Campfire Girls learn fine princi- plees and do all sorts of interesting things, and helpful things. so far as home is concerned And for their services, all they charge is just few little beads. Fo- them they'll take care of babies, wash windows. dry dishes and do anything to scrubb- ing floors.
 The beads they earn, they sew. one by one, upon their uniforms in such g way that the beads illustrate in- cidents in the life of each individual Campfire Girl.

What has happened befores
 This is story dealing with Bir- mingham's future.
 AtSI4 years old, Robert Lnndon be- gins his awakening to young man hood by joining the Boy Scouts. The son Of n poor woman, he leads any thing but an enviabie existence, but citizenship and what it means hns begun to stir in his soul. One day seeing corner stone being laid and hearing the attendant eulogy to citizen, Bob vows he will be great man.
 A red-haired girl hears him, and much to Bob's embarrassment, speaks up and encourage fhe idea. He loses her after a bosiSn promise that he will make good just for her sake. An automobile drives up and whisks her away. He does not even learn her name.
 Bob decides to become m architect, and gets n Job with the best and most successful firm In Birmingham, and is persuaded to become a real estate man. He conceives an idea that he wishes to build a series of gigantic electrical figures above the city which will be magnificent to look upon from the top of Red moun- tain. TwlnkItne lights, he feels, are not enough. He hopes to see only castles, municipal @uiidings houses of G0d. vast audftorIpms, public and state buildings go lup along Red mountains crest-alI of them to be of marble. Their spires and turrets and artistic beauty, he feels, would forever he nm inspiration when Bir- Iningham citizens lifted their eyes to look upon them. He maps out figures typical of the old south and builds his towns in colonial style.
 One day, coming down the street, he sees the red-haired girl ngnfn-- but again she suddenly escapes him. In seeking her, he accidentally learns to know Annette kingston, young society girl, who is very much att tracted to him, and who asks him to call, which he decides he will not do. Mary witnesses the meeting. but does not recognize Bob. She is being pressed to marry Bob McAllister.
 In the meanwhile financier be- comes interested in Bob's drawing of the ghost house.
 Bob sells 1t to him, but persuades him to come and make Birmingham his home. Bob finds child model 5 for his main electrical figure, and drops back to his office to find Charles Kingston, Annette's father, awaiting him.

 If the telephone calls that were put in last year in the United States alone had been scattered evenly about the earth. every person in every country would have been seven times to the phone-every one of India's troubled millions. of China's, and of Africa's, and of the almost countless others in every other land. The wire used in the United States would span the distance to the moon a hundred times--would circle the earth thousand The army and navy of the United States together number about the same as the em- ployees of the Bell Telephone sys- tenn.

 Every little. lad and every little husky fellow who went out to camp learned a great deal. This not only included regular scout studies and department. but took in lectures and Instructions of all sorts.
 One of the most fascinating things put on at camp was tests where the scouts might learn to be very pro ficient in swimming, diving and fiji st aid Working hard, 55 of the 100 boys passed the junior and senior American Red Cross Life Saving ex- animation. Twenty eight boys passed the Junior Life Saving test and sev- en the Senior Life Saving test.

 For instance, suppose Campfire Girl had escaped being pretty badly burned in building. She might sew upon her gown, in bead traceries, a house being consumed by flames.
 The young woman in the above photo-Miss Edith Kempthorne. field secretary for the Campfire Girls was in Birmingham not long ago to arouse intrest in campfire work. In city where scouting does such good work with 1.500 boys, she de- clared there was no reason why at least that many girls could not also be mustered into service.

THE REASONS SEEN BY A
BUSINESS MAN

John E. Edgerton, president of the
National Association of Manufacture
ers, in an address at the national
convention of the organization, in
New York, Tuesday, sounded a note
of warning to the American people
which might we'll be needed. He sees
wasteful spending, where there should
be economy, and sees people seeking
pleasure, at any cost, when they
should be at work. To quote his own
words:
Americans are saving at the spigOt
and wasting at the bunghole at per-
iod when they should be discarding
nonessentials and clinging to neces-
Stiles High priced hotels, theatres,
ball parks and other camping grounds
of amusement and nonproduction are
enlarging their capacities to accom-
modate the ever-increasing army of
refugees from the storms of life.
Golf clubs, cigar factories, jewelry
establishments, walking cane empor-
iums, pet dog kennels, canary bird
dispensaries and bootlegging joints
are flourishing as never before.
Every street and highway throughout
the land is teeming with automobiles
that are burning expensive gasoline
in the presence of self-imposed idle
ness
north, south, east and west are tenn
ing with the multitudes of the weary.
The constructive forces of society
with marvelously increased demands
upon them are at this moment suf-
fering for the lack of adequate nour-
ishment."
Mr. Edgerton asserts that there are
too many middlemen in the industrial
fabric, engaged in distributing the
product turned out by the farmer and
the manufacturer Then he refers to
the large number whose chief actlv-
tiles, he states, are to reform, regu-
late, inspect denounce, tax, plumber
and otherwise live upon those who
are trying to produce something.
After sizing up all these conditions,
he says, it is not difficult to find the
principal factor in the continuing
high cost of living.
