At late hour that afternoon the
war council of the incorporatOrs Of
Linda Lee Cnc.) stalled on dead
center.
Isadore Zinn, owner of the studios,
opened the door far enough to per
nit the introduction of his head and
nothing more of his person. For Il
moment or two he held this posture
playfuliy, looking fro none to an
other of the unhappy four with Il
leer at once inquisitivc, knowing
and hideous. Then he thrust the
door wide open, came in, and shut
it behind him.
Hello, people" he saluted atfably.
How you making out?"
ITS an impassc," Lontainc stated
"We're all in blind alley, you
know"

Zinn agreed vigorously.

But what's the use f tantalizing

"Weli, l just got an idea ay5e

how much, but lot, maybe a cou-
pie hundred thousand dollars, maybe
more. That's all right. We don't
have to worry about that till l come
to look at your books"

"No." At last the woman broke

q thought it might save trouble.
You see, Harry. | haven't forgotten
that hideous scene we had in Lon

"How much have you got into

Lontaine said stupidity, 'Eh?

Fifty thou-pcrhaps few more"
Following another little silence,
Fanny gave a curt laugh, left her
chair, and, standing at the dressing
table, began slowly to strip off her
Jewels. her sunburst brooch, her
flexible bracelets, the pearls that had
been her mothers, all her rings,
even that slender hoop of platinum
and diamonds which she had never
removed since the day of her mar
riagc.
"Stocks?" she inquired quietly.
Lontaine replied with a dour nod
and grunt.
She crossed to him and paused,
looking down not unkindly at his
bowed head and shoulders.
Il don't love you, Harry, and you
don't love me. It's funny to think

NEW ORLEANS DAILY
STATES ENDORSES BONUS

The New Orleans Daily States
gives editorial endorsement to the
Soldiers Bonus bill. The Mr.. Girls
singer referred to, is the Comptroller
of the Currency. He stated that II
the law is enacted, it is his purpose
to advise the banks not to loan money
on Certificates.
The Daily States contrasts what
everybody almost wanted to do for
the boys while the war was on to
what is the sentiment now. The !
States idea, it seems, is to do for
the soldier boy NOW:
thine was when opposition to the
bonus vas general. Many of the ex-
service men themselves were %unfavor-
able to it. But it is steadily gaining
strength from the interests which are
opposing 1.-THE financiers who reap
ed enormous prifits from the war
which the youth of the country won.
When an upstart like Mr.. Hardlng's
comptroller ventures to say he would
use the influence of his office TO de-
feat a law passed by Congress the
only effect is to make even those who
have been opposed to the bonus range
themselves on its side.
1.-The interests for whom Mr.. Crls-
! singer speaks three years ago were
: calling the American soldiers, as the
Chicago Tribune aptly says heroes,
~sayiors of their country and SavlorS
of the world But simply because
they are asking the government TO
helD them in their present distress,
these same interests now are charact-
e~rizing them as robbers, m~ercenarles,
hooters of the treasury and a menace
to national prosperity and STABILITY

BISHOP THEO. D. BKATTON
SAYS OF THE WOODROW
WILSON FOUNDATION

The Woodrow Wilson Foundation
seeks to perpetuate the wholesome IN
huence of the life and philosophy of
one of the greatest statesmen of the
world. 1t has been given to few men
in the history of the past 20 discover
the genius, to declare to the whole
world the ideals towards which the
great of all nations had grouped. In
each era past the world to which its
great men spoke was circumscribed
within the limits of a ace or a band
of allied Nations. President Wilson's
world left no nation, no race, no re-
hottest corner unincluded. The in
slant conviction that this is the ideal
for which we have yearned thrilled
the races of mankind, when the Mas
ter mind interpreted the longing of
the ages since the coming of the
Prince of Peace.
Above the fact that it was Wood
row Wilson upon whom our God,
who guides mankind, laid the privi-
lege of distinguished duty, above the
prophet of the age, is the great catho-
lie purpose which the prophet wit
messed. 1t is this that sanctifies the
purpose of the Foundation with
