Intelligent Horse Made Her Way for
Many Miles to Quarters Which
She Preferred.

My father was very fond of horses
and owned several good ones. One

beautiful, gentle black horse-a PAGER,
which he named "Blackie." He was
very fond Of her, as well as she Of
him. He allowed no one to abuse her
and always took the best care of her.
She was petted and loved and given as
much care as child. She was one Of
my fathers favorite horses and was
the mother Of one fine colt, Of whom
she was indeed proud.
At one time she was iii and my
father sent her out to pasture In
the country. One dark December night
cold north wind blew and light
snow was falling. About midnight
my father was aroused from his sleep
by a strange noise. Did horse whin-
ny? Now he heard the unmistakable
whinny Of horse, at which he arose
and went out into the night. There
upon the front lawn, to his astonish-
ment stood Blackie, who, hearing his
approach, came to meet him. She
nestled her head affectionately against
his shoulder, and whinnied as much
as to say, Il was cold and came home

father took her to the stable and made
her quite comfortable and did not
again take her away.

patience difficult to appreciate when
one finds that their tools were only
hammerstOnes of granite or quartzite,
with perhaps the aid of wooden or
bone wedges, worked out the stone
from the lodges. Either the quarry
men or another group of workmen
then roughed out the blank forms
from which the implements were to be
made. This was done that imperfec-

save the transportation Of useless ma

The roughed-out blocks were then
taken to the workshops In the vicinity
of the quarry and expert workmen
fashioned from them leaf-like blades,
from which, with but little further
work, all forms of arrow points. spear

SAFE ON GOLD
RESTORATION
Sterilization Program to Be
Submitted at Conference
in Europe.

| WASHINGTON, June While Euro
pean ceLters seethe with financial I'M
rest and disorder, America waits until
some safe moment to jump to the fore
with a program that Will mean COM
plete restoration Of the gold standard
over the world.
Americas best card may be played at
the forthcoming conelaye OF financial
giants, who are to gather in Europe as
representatives of the. worlds chief
banks of issue. The Federal reserve
system will be represented. 1t will have
| one of its strongest opponents in the per-
son Of Benjamin Strong. governor Of the
Federal Reserve Bank at New York.
While certain political questions in
Europe, chiefly the Russian puzzle, still
force economic problems to hang in the
balance, Government financial authorities
believe America should step into the sit
uation abroad without further delay and
lead the way out of financial chaos
but not through any compromise that
would involve straight-out American
loans to impoverished or improvident
countries that refuse to help themselves.
1t is the firm opinion Of the fiscal ex-
perts OF this Government that interna-
| tional trade upon safe basis cannot be
restored until the leading nations get
together and put through an agreed
world plan that will mean the convert
Utility Of currency into gold or the
equivalent of gold.
This Government expects on this basis
to bring about Teyaluation Of currency
In foreign countries. with the cooperation
of Great Britain, Japan, France and other
countries where gold Is recognized as the
standard.
Few recognized authorities In finance
expect that the broken currencies of some
foreign powers will be restored TO par
very speedily 1t is expected, though.
that sterilization can be effected. and 2
stop will be placed on reckless printing
OF notes OF constantly diminishing value,
In all the parleys abroad financial
Missionaries have been doomed in their ef-
forts TO find credit substitute for the
gold standard Foreign proponents OF
! the idea have abandoned their theories.
There Is still much doubt what VIII
happen to the countries which have been
swept clean Of their gold by war and
post war operstions-by restoration Of
the gold standard within their borders.
The United States, leading champion OF
the gold standard. as the custodian Of
one third Of the worlds entire supply OF
the precious metal is now booking con

conditions can be righted gradually.
