 way Made Today.

Genoa, May 1.-(By Associated Press )-The work of completing the allied proposals to Russia was re- sumed today with the promise of more headway than heretofore.
 The last few days have brought into evidence more harmonious spirit be- tween the British and French dele gations despite the continuing classes between Mir. Lloyd George and M. Barthou at the sessions of the con- ference commissions and better pro- gress was looked for after the week end rest. Confidence was felt that the divergence in the British and French views could be adjusted so as to pre- sent solid front to the soviet dele gation.
 M. Barthou wishes to see the pro- posals whipped into shape before leaving fo his heart to heart talk with Premier Poincare, and now plans not to start for l dris before tomor- row night.
 While nothing has been officially communicated to the Russians as to the progress of the work they have been able to keep perfectly familiar with what has already been decided by the powers, through publication of the details in Genoa

PARK BRICK co. FIRE
Blaze at ElmWood Saturday Night Docs Damage of S15O, O,0OO-Biggest in Some Time.

New Haven, May Fire Wardens in the towns of Connecticut are leav- ing their customary labors in order to perfect their local organizations us a precautionary measure against the spread of fires in woods and grass lands. The absence of rain and the prevalence for nearly two weeks Of high winds, have made the conditions bad in many sections of the utate. Fires were many in the early days of last week and the increase Saturday and Sunday reached serious propor- tions.
 In actual loss the fire in the plant of the Park Brick Co. at Elmwood Saturday night, on the outskirts of Hartford, was the greatest, it being estimated at $15O,000. Besides much of the brick making equipment i've acres of land were burned over.
 Woods fires are reported from Bris- tol in the Redstone Hill district and around Lake Compounce; in the sec ton around Highland lake at Win sted: thirty acres in the swamp Mor- tar district of Fairfield; a large plot of woods in Weston; on Jobs Hill in Ellington; and in many other places.

BUSINESS SLOWLY, l SURELY IMPROVING
Production Increases, But No
 Boom Market Is Likely Soon

Washington, May 1.-Increased production, more stable prices and a larger export trade were shown in
 recent figures. according to the survey
 of current business issued today by the commerce department.
 From the figures available in re- cent months the department said ''it is clear that fundamental conditions are much better and there is every reason to expect business to improve steadily although perhaps slowly. No Boom Seen.
 With world conditions as they are today there is no likelihood of an immediate boom movement. Recon s,ruction in Europe is far behind what it is in this country and, in general big economic movements are world
 wide in their scope"
 Imports of raw wool in March the department continued, showed a large
 increase over recent months, exports
 Of cotton cloth increased nearly 50
 per cent over February and were the
 largest for several months while, in agreement with other phases of the iron and steel industry there was a distinct improvement in the March export trade.
 | More Auto Business. Increased operations in the automo- bile factories is reported the depart
 ment said, the petroleum industry set
 new high records in March in all di- rections and a marked increase in the
 production Of newsprint paper was noted. Building materials were more

There were more vendors Of lilies of the val leys, the traditional May Day offering of lovers, than of eglantine, the revo- lutionary emblem, but the sale of the dainty white blossoms was slow, be- cause of their dearness, each Bprig costing a franc.

PASTOR HINTS AT
 HELL FOR SINNERS
Rev. A. B. Taylor Explodes Be lief That Man Is Image of God

Men sin because they enjoy it." said Rev. A. B. Taylor of the. Peoples church last evening in a sensational sermon on Why do Men Sin? 2" in which he told of the wrath of God and hinted at a fiery hell to come. Every man and every woman will 1 have to confess continued the minis ter. If they have any red blood in them at all, if they haven't been in fants all their lives, that they sin be- cause they find pleasure in it. l "The immoral man hungers after sin like a starving man after food' Lake of Birthstone, Etc. Rev. Mir. Taylor told his hearers | lieve in the theory of a mercful God and forget that there is punishment | to come after. People of this day l talk of God as merciful God, who will not punish the wicked" he said, but they forget the good book says The wrath of God shall be visited upon the children of disobedence. "
 Four Reasons for Sin Four reasons were given by the minister for the sins of the World He defined sin as transgression of divine law and quoted reasons as fol- lows: Because they enjoy it; because they do not think they will be called to account for their sins; because they have sinned so often against their consciences that it hes become little matter; because sin comes natural to non-C Christian or unconverted man.
 The Divine Library.
 The Book of Life is simply one of many books. according to the minis ter's interpretation of Revelations. Those whose future salvation is as- sured have their names written in the book, but those who are Ion the broad pathway that leads to destruc- tion," are too numerous for one book, their names fill many.
 Christians Punished Here.
 There is only one punishment for Christians who transgress the divine law and that punishment is inflicted during this life accordingf to MT. Fay Tor, but the real punishment for sin comes in the life to come. A good life by a non- believer will not bring heavenly reward, he said. It would be like a man being we'll known to the executives of factory. He would not draw a salary no matter how good a workman he was until after he got job and was put on the payroll.
 Devil Has Them on the Run.
 The devil has some people so much on the run they haven't time to ,l ho to a place where their conscience has no effect upon them.'7
 Man today does not exist in the image of God, despite the popular be- lief to the contrary, explained the minister. He cited to prove his con- tention the statement in the fifth chapter of Genss, which says Adam, who was created in the image of God, lost that image when banished from the Garden of Eden and that his children were created in his (Adams image.

of Jerry's going she could hear through the moaning willows the weird last cries of the baby. The memory almost drew shriek from her. Then she rolled the living bundle from the bed and propped in into a sitting position.
 As Wickedly deliberate as her every act had been, so did she lift the ax from the floor.
 Like q chicken" she taunted, smil- Ing down into Evelyn's haggard face.
 Evelyn struggled, and a muffled sound came from back of the gag In her mouth.
 While Polly contemplated her, an emotion she used to know SO often rose within her and tugged at her heart until the hurt made her clutch at her side. She dropped down and ran her fingers under the heavy cord with which the girl was bound.
 Ropes hurtin' you, huh?" she queried.
 An affirmative bob of her head was the only answer Mrs. Mack enzle could give.
 "Pll undo 'em a bit,' said Polly sullIly. "Loosenin' up a few strings don't say you won't get what's comin' to you"
 With her strong, white teeth and deft fingers she untied the heavy knots that pinioned the slender arms.
 Did the squatters give you any thing to eat?' she asked, rocking back on her heels If you was In Larry's hut so long with that thing in your mouth, then bet you're hungry"
 It was scarcely perceptible, the negative shake that followed this | question.
 If you've got to die you might as well go on a full belIy,' ended Polly, getting up.
 She took piece of hard bread and poured some hot water on 1t. Watch. ing Evelyn frowningly, she beat them | together with a tin spoon. Of course. the stuff was tasteless without sugar! Polly knew it very well, because that vas what she had for supper every night.
 She turned away from the cup in her hand and went to small cup- board over which hung a hlmsy cur tain Back behind a few old dishes she had hidden little sugar one of the squatter women had given her. She had kept 1t against Daddy Hop hins' Homecoming and for Jerry, too perhaps With woeful, in-caught sobs, she poured half of 1t into the cup. Then she crossed to Evelyn and picked up the ax

CHAPTER xV.

There was gloomy silence In the shanty until the horses hoofs could be heard no longer in the snow out side. Larry Bishop crouched low in Jeremiahs rocking chair, pulling in nervous tension at his fingers until the joints cracked. He shot Polly Hopkins a furtive glance but dropped his thick lids before the mearthly ex- pression in the girls eyes. Sine had lost the look of heavenly compassion that had given cheer to the squatters.
 AS his mind went back 10 the spring days when she had so often smiled comfort into his own aching heart, he heaved q deep sigh The sound of his breath, catching in his throat, brought Polly scrambling from the cot.
 Unmindful of the morose squatter, she began pacing the floor, holding lcy fingers to her aching temples.
 Best take the pillows off'n her Poll," muttered Bishop. Shell smoth- CT if you don't"
 The girl paused and threw him q glance over her shoulder
 "Get out of here, you Larry" she bade him In fierce emphasis. "She'd better smother than get what's comin to Ter. You an Lye hang around $ while till l call you. When Fm done with CT, you'll have to sink her in the lake"
 Staggering to his feet, Larry brushed away the water that had gathered in glistening drops upon his brOv-
White County record., 1922-07-06

"God, kid" he growled. "you don't seem human no more. It's all so d-d terrible I'm gettln' haunted. If you change your mind, Poll, an not kill 'er-"
 A gurgling noise came from under the pillows on the cot, and as if an unseen hand were pushing her for ward, Pollyop strode to the bed and jerked away the small feather ticks.
 Evelyn's eyes sought out the squat ter man in mute pleading. Polly laughed; and gray with horror at her merciless attitude, Larry slunk to the door.
 "I guess this amt none of my busi- ness," he mumbled, and opening 1t, he fled as if pursued by a vindictive spirit of the Storm country.
 Again with swift, long strides the girl went to the door and barred 1t. Then with utmost deliberstion she lighted several other candles and set them in different parts Of the hut un- til a flood of light was diffused through the room.
 A long deep sigh fell from her lips as she finished her task She wanted to see every wave of pain that shot across Evelyn MacKenzie's pallid face; and that was why she ap- preached the cot and stood looking down upon the twisted figure.
 All she had endured through the rich girls perfldy swept over her like tidal wave. Out of the dark dream

shI if Mackenzie comes here, yappin' aI his woman, laugh at him-laugh. an laugh till your sides split, Larry" Sie closed the door, pushed Bishop ato chair, and then deliberately awled into bed beside Evelyn. Upon he inert figure of the bound girl she ee two pillows.
 Then she and Lacry waited, scarcely reafhing, until vo ces seemed to come trough the clapbeards from every d. ction.
 A rush of feet brought Bishop bolt bright
