 For an instant I was disconcerted. "Aha," I retorted rather lamely, "a Portia for Shylock. The villain Is foiled. I guess I am too. It's been long while since I played tennis, and Q deuce set of twelve-eleven is some game to spring on me at my age and all. I feel foiled."

 Do you really want me to?" l meekly said.
 "Of course I do,' she replied. "Sure?"
 'rUm- -huna," A mischievous smile was dancing in her eyes and on her lips. I drew a long breath I think I said little prayer-or thought one.
 Yes, I forgot all about the tennis aches. I walked all the way back to the boarding house. Even the dis covery thht the boarders were all through and that I could go outside for dinner or go without failed to dampen my spirits I was in hur1or for spending my last cent anyhow.

The reason for using blunt-end tweezers is because they grasp the hair, pulling it out from below the skin, whereas sharp ends clip off the hair like shaving.

ed and with the completion of that
work this forenoon, it was TO be
signed by Speaker Gillette and SEN
ator Cummins, Republican Iowa,

is expected to add immeasurably to
the cost of living, was marked by
the detection of prominent Republi-

Lenroot of Wisconsin and Senator
Cummins of Iowa, Administration

The list of Republican insurgents
who could not be prevailed upon to
accept the soaring schedules of the
bill includes Borah of Idaho and La
Toilette and Lenroot of Wisconsin.
Norris of Nebraska, another Re-
publican would have voted
against the bill had he been present.
Only two Democrats, Broussard and
Ransdell of LOUISIANA, voted for the
bill paying their debt for the high

report was preceded by Il storm of

STATE PRISON WARDEN
FIGHTS TO BITTER end

TRENTON. Sept. 20.-Declaring
that he will fight to the bitter end"
any attempt upon the part of the
State Department of Institutions and
Agencies to interfere with his consti-
tutional prerogatives as to the man
agement and hiring of supervisors
for institutional employment at the
State Prison, Warden Joseph S. Hof
has taken issue with a communica-
ton just sent by Institutions Com
missioner Burdette G. Lewis to the
Civil Service Commission on this
subject.
Mr.. Lewis wrote the commission
stating his board had determined to
the inmates at the correctional in
stitutions and that 1T had decided
that no further action be taken with
respect to communications from the
prison management pertaining to
this subject.
The particular bone of contention
arises over examinations and APP
pointments for the position of in
st%ructors, superintendent and others
to supervise the work of artificial
! stone making and the woodworking
industry at the prison.
Mr.. Hoff takes the position that
as head OF the prison ana
as he does an office created in the
constitution of New Jersey he is
placed in sole control of the opera
ton and management of the State
| Prison and he intends to resent any
interference upon the part of the
Department of Institutions. 1t is
his intention to supervise the opera
ton of these industries employing
the convicts within the prisons walls
and says hat he has an opinion rem
dered by the attorney generals de-
partment which sustains his position.
He holds hat the institutions de-
partment is encroaching upon his
prerogatives as head of the prison
and it is his intention to carry the
controversy to the courts if neces-
sary for settlement. The warden
a y he will ask the Civil Service
Board for authority to make tenn
porary appointments to the position.
mentioned pending the tests for per
manent filing of the places.
When told this attitude of Hoff
Commissioner Lewis said he under
stood that the warden was agreeabl
to the institutions department con
trolling the operation of the prisons
industries. Lewis in a recent speech
blamed lack of employment for thu
men at the prison as responsible fol
the disorders which have just takel

1t is not improbable that such an

The British, however, are declared

of whether France or Italy partici-

The Kemalists are in dangerous
