is 1T CONWAY?


At the time of the Revolutionary
War, one Thomas Count de Conway,
born in France. came to the United
States and offered his services for
the struggling colonies to the young
Congress. The services were CRATE
fully accepted, and Conway rose to
be a Brigadier-General by 1777. and
was serving in that capacity and
rank at Brandywine and German
town.
It Is chiefly as the leader OF the
Conway Cahal, a conspiracy, TO de-
prive Washington Of his command Of
the Continental Army. that this
/ dashing soldier IS remembered. and
because of this conspiracy that he
was abllged TO leave the army. He
fought a duel with General John
lCadwallader, a staunch adherent of
Washington In this duel he was
wounded and thereafter he wrote an
apology to Washington and returned
to France and was sent to Enida as
military governor of Londicherry.
The children of this sefdier OF for
tune were John and Francis. who
married Travers Daniel.
The founder OF the big Conway
family in the new world. settled in
Virginia in 1910. This was Edwin
! Conway, OF Worcester. England
who was sometimes listed as Edwin
Conway, or Connaway. His wife
was Martha Eltonhead, and his
second wife, whose name has been
mislaid in the shady pages Of anti
guilty, was a sister of John Carter.
The children OF this first Virginia
settler were several and they estab-
lished a big family which thrived
and prospered. Moncure Daniel
Conway. celebrated author, was a
member OF this branch. He was
born in Virginia in 1881. The family
has now spread to the north and is
still hourishing.

OUR FIRST YEAR
CHAPTER xXVII-My Social Splash
By Bride.

Marriage was not to be per-
mitted TO interfere with the in
dividual liberties of Jack and his
bride. Perhaps they forgot
about bills, social demands and
other matrimonial responsible
ties!
Three months have 1 been trying
to create a social splash. At least
that's what Jack calls my social sue
cess when he leases me.
Jack hasn't been very helpful. I've
had TO manage 1t myself. Indeed,
Jack has complained. more than
once.
Must we go out tonight?" he has
asked at breakfast when I've re-
minded him of an engagement for
the evening. Really nothing except
chess can be relied upon to dig him
out of his deep chair in his own liv-
ing room.
Jeanne said when complained TO
her:

mentary to you, my dear. What's
the matter with you brides nova
days? You run about so. Now If I
had a real man like yours in a real
home like this-Td be glad TO stay

And indeed, I was succeeding re-
considering how little
money we have.

PRESIDENT CONSIDERS
8HOURSFOR CLERKS

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Presi-
dent Harding IS considering the ad-
visibility of issuing an executive or
der establishing eight hours as the
work day for government clerks in
stead of seven as at present. Such
action, government economists est-
mate. would mean an annual saving
of approximately s25.OOO,OOO.
The question was discussed at the
Cabinet meeting yesterday. Cabinet
members were said to be in practical
agreement that every government
employe should give eight full hours
Of labor, exclusive of lunch or recre-
alton periods.
The anticipated saving of s25, 0OO,-
900 a year IS based on the idea that
the departments could get along
with 10000 fewer clerks than at
present, when 10000 are on the pay
rolls in the District of Columbia.
Considering salary and overhead,
each clerk costs the government ap-
$500 a year.
