The attractions of the world
must be met by the attractions of
the church. Has the church lost
its charm ? 1t is the safest place
for the family. 1t offers sound,
sensible, spiritual sermons, splen-
did music. You find the best So
ciety there, a pure atmosphere
What is your program for Sun

square deal. Surely He deserves
that much. God always plays fair
with us. Will a man rob God .?
Any man who robs God will rob
you. The church gives you a cor

back of the theatre. When he told me
he wanted to give me a chance, I an

"All through the war he served with
distinction as a lieutenant with the Three
Hundred and Second Engineers. Then
when it was over, over there, he won a
scholarship in Paris, and stayed on to
study.
presently the most wonderful things
began to happen. Everywhere he exhib-
tied his work it won great acclaim. BY
business he is an architect-by genius, an
artist. Architectural commissions came
thick and fast. And for his pictures there
were honorable mentions and prizes.
His greatest triumph was when LII
lustration, the best known art magazine
in the world, asked him for four of his
elCnlHSs lOT puDllCdtlOH, lHdt meant
that he had really and truly arrived. Then
the Paris Review, the American maya

illustrated article.
at was then that an American reporter,
correspondent for New York newspaper,
interviewed him at his studio on the Rue
du St. GothRrd.

the reporter.

months older!
For years and years-ever since that
day in the back yard-I've known I'd
marry Al--but 1t took him so long to ask
me again that was afraid he'd forgotten.
THE second time we met was years
later. ] was attending Salem Academy in
North Carolina, and AL was at the Uni
versity of Tennessee. Mother - whose
pen name is Felicia Folger, and who's a
very wcll-known feminist author-had a
studio on Fifty-second street in New York.

days, and ] was visiting her. One night

more. And, about that time, sat me
down and wrote Mister Alonzo C. Webb
a letter.

"a wrote him long, long letter-half
in earnest and half in fun; but underneath
! was really awfully hurt 1t was in re-
ply to that letter l received my first hon
est-to-goodness proposal. Al explained
beautifully all about the interview.
"We'l be married, of course, because
We wouldn't want to shock anyone. It's
wisest, usually, to observe convention
But Al and I just loathe old-fashioned
matrimony.
"We'd rather think of marriage as Just
joining forces than as terribly formal
legal, religious affair. I'm going to marry
him because we've so much in common
so much work that we can do in collabora-
ton. Pm awfully interested in architcc-
ture and in interior decorating. There
fore, feel sure can be of real help to
him in his work
But wouldn't for the world give up
my work for his. I'll stay right on the
stage-singing and dancing and trying to
make people happy. While play in
Europe I'll be there with Al. When my
show leaves for the States ] may have
TO come back again for another engage
ment. Then Al can come, or not, as he
chooses.
"That's our idea of a happy romance.
No reproaches; no determinations. Lead
ing each his own1ife, collaborating when
it is possible, going each his own way
when it is wiscst. We've so much in COM
mon that we're bound to be happy. While.
on the other hand. we've so many inter
ests that are varied, We'll never grow tired
of each other.
at seems as If we were fated one for
the other. 1t seems as if Destiny had
hand in it ALL Else why did I climb that
picket fence? Why did we meet at the
mail box? Why did I wait and wait?
And never love another? Why, Just be-
cause the gods meant Al for ne-and me

"Hello,' he said, What's your
"'Becky, told him. What's yours
"Alonzo Webb, said he, but you can
call me AL
"And that was the beginning. After
wards / climbed the picket fence many
times. Before mother took me home to
Greenville I'd told him | was going to he
an actress, and he'd told me he was going
to be an artist. We'd promised to marry
each other when we'd grown famous. And
I'd had my first kiss. 1t was a very sue
cessful vacation.
'Now just look at the letter he's writ
ten me"-and Becky drew from the folds
of her blouse a voluminous epistle.
"Want to read it," she asked.
ooh, it's all right" she said. "Al
writes the most wonderful letters-per-
fectly beautiful. It's like poem to read
them; This one Is wonderfulest of all
for its the first time he's told me that
he's really, truly ready for me-that his
dreams have all come true, and he is
ready to lay his laurels at my feet"
The letter was forty-four big, mannish
pages long. He told her all about his
chateau in France, and how he'd furnished
it. He told her of his work and his
triumphs. Then, finally, he told her of
his love. In business-like fashion he
cited his prospects, and outlined his flu
ture for her approval. Then, in a whrl-
wind of passionate ardor, he wrote:
ooh, Becky, Becky, love you. ] have
loved you since the first days of our.
friendship - long, long age, over that
picket fence. I'll love you forever-but
an, would much rather whisper it in
your ear, very softly-Becky, | love you"
In a postscript he added. when may
introduce you to Ia Belle France as Mrs.

But to 60 back to the beginning:
"Becky-girl," he wrote, 81 want you to

'Not until WHAT" pleaded
the boy.
"Until you have made
name for yourself and | have
become a star"
Now Becky is a big girl and
one of the principals in one of
the successful Broadway shows.
Alonzo is a six-footer and an
artist of international fame.
He's in Paris, painting pictures.
And she's going over to play in
London. Then they'll be mar

as ever was, and just like

quick action whenever it
Is called for.
So when she read, in French - that
language best suited for the romantic and
passionate phrases of love-the proposal
translated at the top Of this page it
seemed that even the speed of light was
not quite fast enough, to flash back her
answer. So she did the best she could;
rushed to the cable office--and sent just
one word, eyes," to her far-away lover
in Paris.
To Alonzo. Webb, student-soldier, archi-
tect and artist, no other word meant so
much. In it lay the crown to his success,
the one word necessary to complete the
happiness he promised little Becky when
they were children together in sunny Ten
nessee.
For the romance of the pretty stage
star and the distinguished young artist is
one Of those "once upon a time matings"
that began when their backwards touched
each other and their first kiss was given
through picket fence.
In those days Becky was little girl
JUST learning Cnat tneTe was SuCn tnlnR
as love in the world, and Alonzo was not
such a big boy either. Their mothers
turned them out to play one morning,
each in their back yards. Becky was a
newcomer, and while she played sudden
ly became conscious of pair 6f wonder
ing brown eyes looking at her. Not many
days passed before the two children were
talking to each other like grown-up folks
and proudly Boosting what they were
going to be.
II am to be a great actress" said
Becky.
"And an artist" chimed in the boy.
Then her mother stepped in. Alonzo
heard with regret that Becky was going
away the next day. But before leaving
she promised to be his sweetheart and
they sealed that promise with a kiss
through the fence.
"Then sometime we will be married."

" hat becomes
e 100000
cement sacks
J year?
Practically 90 per cent OF
the 100000 barrels Of
portland cement shipped
last year was delivered in
returnable cotton sacks.
To supply users Of cement
promptly, the industry must
have about 200,000,000
sacks either on hand or in
use.
The sack method Of ship
ping is most convenient.
There are four sacks to a
barrel Each sack contains
% pounds of cement-a
cubic foot. And a cubic
foot is handy volume in
proportioning concrete
mixtures.
When cement is shipped, thesacks
are billed to the purchaser. When
they are returned, they are bought
back at the same price il they are
in disable or repairable condition.
This involves much work in
checking, cleaning, sorting and
repairing.
But in spite Of the fact that every
good cement sack is redeemable,
100000 Of the sacks shipped
everyyear fail to come back-aloss
OF nearly $5,000,000 a year at
present prices o. new SACKS.
To replace these lost, strayed or
stolen" sacks requires annually
over 10000 bales Of cotton. Il re-
quires that the textile industry
weave strip OF cloth 30 inches
wide and 1900 miles long. II
means that 1000 looms are kept
working full time for year.
Thousands OF sacks returned to
the cement mills for redemption
are damaged, yet accepted for
credit, ii they can be repaired
This repair is done by the cement
manufacturer at his own expense
A medium sized plant shipping,
say 100000 barrels Of cement
year, has to repair an average Of
5000 sacks per day from among
those returned for credit. This
keeps 6people constantlyworking
at rapidly operated electric sew
ing machines. In million barrel
year plant, % people are con-
stantly employed sorting, counting
repairing and otherwise caring for
returned sacks SO that they may
again be used.
AT the present time $30000,o00
would be a conservative estimate
OF the investment which the ce-
ment industry has in cotton sacks.
Sacks are one Of the lesser, but
nevertheless important items in
the cement industry.
