JEWS LAUNCH BIG AWAKENING AMONG TRADES PEOPLE.
By Assoclated Press

By Associated Press
 Jerusalem, July 1.-The industrial development of Palestine under the Jews Is moving forward in leaps and bounds, and this in spite of the many trade quarrels that have sprung up of late between employer and employe.
 During the past year no less than 1000 licenses were issued for new trades and industries In Palestine The extent of this development can be judged from the fact that prior to 1921 only 2.500 licenses were reg istered by the government. This means that nearly two-thirds of tho enterprises In Palestine were started within the last year.
 Many IndustxfeS
 The capital invested in each of these new ventures ranges from S2o,- 900 to $50000, but with such notable exceptions as the Silicate company of Jaffa, with a capital of s500.o00. and the Standard oil company, now ex- plotting the Dead sea basin
 A tract of 800 acres of land has been bought by British Jewish inter ests and will be devoted to home and factory building. while American in1 terests are starting q building and loan association and 6 savings bank. A casino, two bathing establishments and electric lights are among the at- fractions of an "American" seaside resort which has sprung up on the sands stretching to the north of Jaffa.
 In reality. this is Jewish town ship and it's local name Is Tel Aviv, but to visitor it appears a go-ahead American town with 8 spirit that overeomes all obstacles. It has more than 12.o00 inhabitants and. an i'm mense brick factory working night and day.

 Bob put on his brakes with such force that the car almost lifted it. self. and sputtered with the terrible shock.
 Bob never wanted to be the means of killing the smallest thing. He despised a man who was care less of life-iife God had made.
 Then Bob actually uttered shout
 The very dog" he screeched, and was out of his machine in an instant. Isn't this the luck of knave!'
 And in two seconds the dog was in his hands.
 The architect turned to look in every direction. No owner was in sight. He was in one of the most fashionable residential districts, and everything visible was staid and quiet--uncannily so. The only movement he could observe was the slight swaying of the shrubbery. the stirring of magnolia leaves the stern austerity of staring win dows. heavily shaded.
 Puzzled
 Bob whist1ed.
 Tt 'ud take me all night to find the owner of this dog-and they might kick me out besides. {. dis courage the idea" Bob decided.
 Come on, dogums. know If you're valuable, they'll advertise for you. anyway-and if they don't. then I'll bring you back to this identical spot and put you down to go home, But I want you to serve the whole city of Birmingham, and only mean to take your picture. That won't hurt. so I'm sure there couldn't be any objection on your part. and I'll feed you nice meat and take you to the doctor and everything if you get sick"
 Then with one backward glance still unproductive of results in hoped into the machine vita the dog and was gone.
 But there was very awful thing which he did not see.
 Just as he was entering the car with "Checkersv in his hand. young woman came to the window of one of the houses and looked out
 It was Mary Trevor.

 Too Lates
 She rushed hurriedly into the yard. but only the vanishing tail lights of Bob's automobile were visible. and al mud had been splashed over the cars number. 1t was im- possible to figure 1t out.
 She stood like little stricken thing.
 Isn't this terrible. o. what shall I dor"
 She upbraided herself then for bringing the dog along. She had come calling at . friends home, and. while they were engaged in planning several details of .l doll bazar. the dog had slipped unnoticed into the streets.
 Two big tears forced themselves out of Mary's eyes.
 ''If had you. you terrible man. I'd make you pay for that" she vowed vehemently. And all the time she was con- vinced from the car. as we'll as the mans appearance-which struck her as vaguely familiar-that he was prominent and weli-known citizen.

What has happened before. | This is a story dealing with Bfr- nfngham's future.
 | At 14 years old, Robert Landon be- gins his awakening to young man. hood by joining the Boy Scouts. The | son of poor woman, he leads any thing but an cnyfabIe existence, but citizenship and what it means hns begun to stir in his soui. One day seeing a corner stone being laid and hearing the attendant eulogy to a citizen. Rob vows he will be a great man.
 A Red-haired girl hears Aim, and much to Rob'm embarrassment, speaks up and encourages the idea. He iooSes her after . boyisk promise that he will make good just for her sake. An automobile drives mp and whisks her away. He does not even learn her name.
 Beb decides to become as archi- tect. Ho conceives an idea thnt he wishes to build 8 series of gigantic electrical figures above the city which will be magnificent to look upon from the top of Red mountain. TwtnlxlinE lights, he feels, are not enough. He hopes to see only castles, municipal buildings, homes of God, vast auditoriums, public and state buildings erected along Red noun tain's crest---aaH of them to be of
 marble. Their spires and tnrress and artistic beauty, he feels, would forever be an inspiration when Bir- mingham citizens lifted their eyes to look upon them. He maps out fig ures typical of the old south and builds his towns in colonial style.
 One day, coming down the street he sees the red-haired girl again but again she suddenly escapes him. I'm seeking her, he accidentally learns to know Annette Kingston. young

expression moulded Into life in marble.
 The cost of the one figure would run past SS00,0o0--but Bob was de- termined that. no matter what the price, the piece was cheap enough.
 The First Figure
 That should be the first figure hich should be erected above the city And. seeking a suitable loca- ton, Bob found two desirable vacant lots at s2. 1000 each, which would bs admirable for the statue's placing. Ii must stand upon base which would practically cover both lots, the top of 1t should be carved to rep resent standing grass blades Shaded lightings upon this base must make that grass a natural green
 How Sweet would the figure of the little girl be. barefoot in the | grass. one foot slightly advapeed. red hair flying upon her shoulders. the wind blowing her dress. and her hands elasping the strings of her sun hatl
 Even her dress--a little thing gathered upon a simple yoke--must be as exact as Bob's memory could fashion it. And then there must not be forgotten the little. little dirty dogl
 Bob secured the whole city for a dog like the one he had seen that once.
 It had been a fussy little thing. and whatever figure of it was ex- ecuted must show that nervous, yet so important swing of it's body.
 Bob remembered how it had given him the impression It was tranquil ly undisturbed by human interest or applause. It went about it's business with the conviction that it's ideas were right on every score.
 Hard Job
 No such dog seemed to exist Bob even went to the pound to find one.
 There he located apologetic dogs careless canines; those which were obsequious. and those which looked into your eyes and implored you to adopt them and take them home. 1t seemed to Bob so darn lonely,-a blame shame" these poor creatures must be there.
 Then there were the namby-panm- by and the good" dogs; those who were afflicted with a great sorrow. and still further. the varieties which playfully were wont to snap spitefuI- ly at your ankles and inform the whole neighborhood you were pass ing by the time you got within a city block of their whereabouts.
 Bob grew discouraged. At last he advertised for the sort of dog he wanted. All In vain.
 Finnaily ono late afternoon when he was in great hurry, rushing back to the office to meet an en gagement after he had been to in spect operations going on at the FL berton project. Bob rounded a curve almost to run over little dog com Ing, at full speed. In hia direction.

 Well. l promise I'll hunt all over creation or find him. I'll make hia life miserable. I believe I'd know that car"
 And Mary, too distressed for a lengthier visit, flew into the house to impart the news of the theft and to hurry home.
 Would Go Early
 There she made up her mind that as early as possible the next morn ing she would rush down town and inspect every car in the business district or find Checkers"
 She was determined that tho lit- tie thing-offspring of the small dog which had grown up with her and which Bob had seen with her their childish meeting day-should bereturned to her.
 Why. he's all I've got. she de- cided.
 She concluded that the man, hav- ing stolen her dog. it would do no good to advertise right at first He would probably keep the animal shut up. Later. when he became bold in unchallenged ownership, and other persons had seen the dog, she might get results by advertising. But at present she would conduct a per sonal search

 Evidence of surprising recovery from the devastation of war in south eastern Europe is furnished in an article by Dorothy Kennard in Har- per's. Describing an express trai, journey across Jugo- -SIavia, she writes:
 T suppose\all thIs part of the world has been indulging in such an orgy Of Reorganization, on pa per. during the last three years, that IL fas managed to settle down, in actuallty almost without noticing that II has become well ordered! In such hypothesis. at any rate, lies Tor me the only explanation of the evidence not only of industrial pros p'ritS, but of organized enterprise, which have seen on every side since we crossed the frontier this morning. Perhaps 1t is only stupen- dous ignorance that had created in ny nrnd the fiction that the terms Jsgo- -Slavia.' chaos, and 'Czecho- Soyakia' were synonymousl True, the latter state is still but name and does not take shape for us until tomorrow.
 But here. dans le Royaume des Serbes ct des Creates, are peace, plenty. and contentment, in such proportion. at least. as a passerby is enabled to appraise from a train window. Not peasant but is well clothed, not a beast but is well cov- cred. not house but is well roofed. There are riches of timber. produce. and agricultural land.

 CHAPTER x CONTINUED
 Down in his office. how wonderful thing to Bob Landon was going onl
 From the woods and fields, her glorious bronze hair sweet of the scent of hay. had at last come the little fairy girl to have her picture made-the draw<Rg which was to form the model foA a master statue representing young Birmingham in the springtime of her life.
 The architect had small time for anything else for 10 days.
 Although he had engaged an artist and one of great renown, to draw the picture. he himself became the artist in direction. The expression of eyes. of face. of lips, must be perfect-and the slender, childish body, so aprealingiy sweet in its young innocence. Every one must ha fla fax t~ xxxtf1 the little figure-And to love her. Bob was determined upon that.
 Many Efforts
 The first drawing did not suit. Then a photographer was sent for, and moro than 100 photographs wero taken that a certain elusive express sion be there. No one knew that ex pression but Bob. Ever since he had caught it from the lips and eyes of Mary Trevor that long ago childish day. his heart had known no rest be- cause of it. O. he knewi
 And over and over again the ef- fort for perfection was made. till the little girl herself strove to catch the spirit. She could not help 1t.
 Then. one afternoon when Bob, go- ing out for a moment, came back to tell her that a wonderful doll was arriving In feW moments because sfe had done so well, the photog- rapher caught the little model in just the delighted moment of her serious earnestness which made this last picture the best in the entire lot
