Mack sennett and Annette Keller man are the two great influences that have made the bathing suit what il is today.
 Sennett found 1t ugly, undeveloped and unimaginative. By cross-breed- ing it with the costume of chorus girls and debutantes, he achieved lux ury and picturesqueness.
 And this seasons suits of silks satins, velvet batik and lace. with corsages, jewels, feathers and fur, are all the direct descendants of his line of propagation.
 Annette. on the other hand, made elimination her motto. She pared down the bathing suit, reduced it to it's simplest terms.
 And her contribution Is the sensi- ble wool jersey suit, built on the pre- mise that a woman occasionally likes to get into the water as well as loll on the beach.
 The model she originated this sea- son has been developed in the most gorgeous colors and frequently is adorned with wool embroidery, ap- plique or cross-s stitch. It has become a three piece costume with long wool cape.

I'm going to stay right here on this farm" Reddy Woodpecker de- clared. T like this place.
 Perhaps you expect to leave for tke South before the heechnuts are ripe" Frisky Squirrel suggested hope fully.
 Not r" replied Reddy Woodpeck- CT. "If leave, shall wait until the last beechnut is eaten. And no doubt I shall not leave at all. This looks to me like good place to spend the winter"
 Now that Frisky Squirrel knew that Teddy Woodpecker ate beechnnts. he was more determined than ever to catch him He had hunted Reddy be- fore: Now he haunted him. He dogged Reddy Woodpeckers foot steps. lie crept up behind him and jumped at him a dozen times day.
 Though Frisky didn't know it, he couldn't have caught Reddy Wood becker in a thousand years. Reddy was too wary 70 be caught He al ways chuckled after lodging. And he always called mockingly, Not this time, young fellow.' ts..
 All sumner long the chase went on. Frisky Squirrel seemed to think that if cnly he hunted Reddy long enough there would come time when when he would catch him mapping.
 Now, every years as fall drew near 1t was Frisky's custom to go each day to the woods, to inspect the beech nuts He went very slyly. It was business of great importance. Of course he didn't care to have every body know what he was doing.
 Imagine his annoyance, then, on his first trip to the beach grove to hear Reddy Woodpecker call out 10 him What do you think of 'em? Will they be ready to eat soon?"
 Reddy was high up in beech tree And F'risky Squirrel was so angry that he could only look up at him and chatter.
 You haven't answered by ques- tion." Reddy observed presently. Per haps yeu aren't a good judge Of beech nuts. Perhaps I'd better ask Jasper Jay" .....
 That threat made Frisky Squirrel angrier than ever. He darted up the tree as fast as he could scramble. If

SMUGGLING
 HEAVY IN NORWAY
We'll Organized Trade Greets
 Buyers in That Land

Stockholm, June 12-The smug- gling of alcohol into Norway has be- come we'll organized and growing trade. and this in spite of the exten- sion of Norway's territorial waters Over 100 vessels were waiting recent ly outside the Norwegian fjords for customers to take liquor already pur- chased. Light wines and beer only are legal in Norway, drinks contain ing more than IS percent of alcohol being barred.
 How Trade Is Done
 Stroemsta, small place in Sweden near the Norwegian border is an im- portant center for the smuggling flotillas which are composed mostly of German and Danish vessels. These boats enter port and have their car goes sealed by the Swedish customs people. The shippers meet their Norwegian customers in the town and arrange for the sale of the liquor after which they put to sea outside the nationality limit and break the seals. The Norwegian buyers meet at a rendezvous and the tranactions are completed.
 In this way enormous quantities of liquor are brought into Norway and prices are steadily declining. Also there has been an increase in the number of cases of drunkenness. which in Christiania is reported to be twice as large as in Stockholm.
 The Norwegian government de- rived an annual revenue of about 46, 0oo,o krone from liquor before the establishment of prohibition, but to. day this has been reduced to virtually nothing.

It's refreshing 10 hear the truth | occasionally And I grant your as- sertion, l have no idea where your simlan mind has concealed the 'po,pers.' But that the climax of the third act is imminent. can see with out the aid of speetaeles So I await your disclosure with intense interest"
 That Katie did not understand his words. l, of course. knew. and was in- censed at Allen Drake for the sly fun he was poking at the girl. But shis tone evidently pointed his meaning to her quick perceptions, for she turned away from him with a gesture really superb in it's disdainful defiance. and addressed herself to Lillian.
 "Meesis Underwood, you remember Vot l tell you dot man say, all dot stuff tell you not to tell?"
 "Yes, Katie"
 T tell you all but vun ting. He tell me dot I must get paper for heem. say eet eetle paper init all kinds funny marks. He tell me dot must look in efery book, efery tins in room. I have awful times getting chance to look, for dot old vomans. and Meesis Harrison dey always snoop- ing around after me. and ven I get eet, l shoost sit me down und howl for l no want to geev eet to dot man und not know how to keep eet away from heem. Eef I couldn't find eet he coon and hunt heemself, und he Keel me. He know eferyting you tink, dot man !"
 She paused as if in reflection at the dlabollcal powers of the man Anton and I wished whimsically that my mother-inlaw could have heard the girls reference to herself and her daughter Elizabeth I remembered most distinctly the letter Mother Ora ham had written to me. saying that Katie was 'snooping" all over the house, reciting the girls activities in cleaning my fathers room, and say ing that when Katie had finished, she had sat down and "howled" Mother Graham had attributed the girls emo. tion to her failure to find something she wished to appropriate to her OWL use, but my partisanship and my con- mon sense as well preferred katie's story to my mother-in- laws theory.
 Go on, Katie" Lillian said encour- agingly. Did you give the paper to the man?"
 Katie swept us with a triumphant l glance

absolutely dehes the sun to re-deco- rate the neck and shoulders of the wearer. It also has a way of conceal ing shoulder blades that jut far out and spoil the outline. The gingham bathing suit too, is a novelty. and comes beruffled and be- frilled much like the silk one. Every beach siren has a long cape, which she uses advantageously. These are cut much on the line of the popu!1' street cape of the moment They are of satin. rubber lined, or eponge or terry cloth.
 Very smart ones of fine grade of rubber are on the general plan of the fringe.
 One of the real novelties of the sea- son in the way of accessories is the beach umbrella with a cigaret case in the handle.
 Another novelty is the beach pillow, which looks like regular pillow and is comfortable to lie on, but which contains a complete makeup outfit and some hand towels, grateful to the fair bather after an excursion in the waves.
 There is some new waterproof rouge which enables you to keep up the illusion of vivid color, even while swimming: also powder that sticks in spite of the waves. There is an eye lash pencil, that remembers its duty, even under water.

NEW TRAFFIC CLUB
 0N FREIGHT RATES
Shippers and Carriers Will Voice
 Opinion in Organization

Chicago. June 12-Freight rates and railroad wages will be dealt with from the point of view of shippers and carriers by the newly organized Associated Traffic club of America, in an effort to influence public opin- ion and policies, according to an out line of its objects made by the off cers here today. Those who have promoted the organization say that its work will be much the same as that contemplated in recent proposals of national transportation institute, supported by both shippers and car riers, flor the education of the pub lie and the support of wise transpor- tation policies" They announce that the organization hopes to impress upon the president and congress "the kind of men that should be appoint. ed to the interstate commerce com mission" though it will refrain from recommending individuals.
 Some Questions.
 Some of the questions to be con- sidered will probably relate to the value of the United States railroad labor board: proposals to amend the rate making section of the transpor- tation act so that there shall not be a mandate to the interstate commerce commission to make the level of rates such that the carriers will earn an adequate revenue: restoration of pow CT of the state policy in respect to a merchant marine; the proposed St. Lawrence canal.
 It is estimated that there are twen- ty-fve or more "industrlal' traffic clubs in which shippers but not car riers are represented. The associa ton, which was organized at a meet ing attended by fifty representatives

The Confession Katie Made Before
 Them All.

At Katie's asseverations that she would tell the truth, l saw a cynical little smile quirk the corners of Allen Drake's mouth, and l felt a sudden primitive impulse to change that ex- pression with a well-directed slap But my father was speaking again, and l turned to listen, forgetting everything else in my pride of him and the revelation he had just made.
 That is what we want, Katie,' my father said kindly. yet there was more than hint of iron beneath the softness of his manner. You say you didn't wish to listen but to be sure that we were not in our rooms. Why did you wish to be sure of thato Did you wish to find out if there was an- other book like this somewhere
 Katie is Defiant.
 With a quick movement he took from the table the book he had shown us from which the memorandum had been taken, opened it, and spread 1t before katie's astonished eyes. She gazed at it blankly for an instant, then she looked at my father with an odd. tense gaze. which held in it a touch of something inscrutable. some thing which I decided with a sudden quickening of my pulses was not guilt
 'Den-you-know," she said slowly
 "Yes, we know that you took 3 paper from this book" my father re- turned as nleasuredly. But we do not know why you did it, or what you have done with the paper"
 With a dramatic movement Katie swept the circle of faces in front of her with searching eyes Then she crept closer to my side and covered my hand timidly with her own.
 Only vun who believe poor Katie" she said sorrowfully, and again l saw the amused little quirk of Allen Drake's lips
 Katie saw it. too. and her quick temper f1ared.
 You, Meester Drake she supt- tered, you tink yourself all de stew, but you noting but de soup greens I'll bet you nefer can find dot paper eef I no tell you' Though I secretly enjoyed Katie's outburst I conscientlously tried to stop it. But she finished her defiance triumphantly, then at sight of my fathers stern face she wiled miser- ably.
 "Oh. Oh, I forget, I so ashamed..." she walled contritely.
 "Go On, Katie.'

becker told him. "Tery kind in- 1eed,"
 Well, in about two weeks there was q frost. When Reddy Woodpecker awoke one morning, the fields were white and a thin coating of ice cover cd the water trough in the barnyard.
 Some of the birds in Pelasant Val ley had long since left for the South. And many of those th,t hadn't an nounced that they expected to start for a hinder climate that very even ing.
 The weather soon grew warmer. and on the following day Reddy Woodpecker and Frisky Squirrel met at the beech grove
 These are good nuts, eh?" called Reddy.
 They'd taste sweeter if you weren't here" Frisky Squirrel mumbed out of a full mouth.

 Then Frisky sat up on a limb and glared at him.
