RETAIN THE LOVERS LANES"
Sentiment In Thousands Of Hearts
Pleads That They May Never Be.
como Great Highways.

A little gray cottage stands on a
hilltop. Below the hill runs the cross
road. There is not much travel on
the road-it serves to connect two
highways.
Oftentimes the crossroad takes its
way close to the foot Of some deeply
wooded knoll and sometimes 1t goes
over a creek, quivering under its Icy
cover. Then the two ends Of the road
meet by means of little bridge, where
the hoofbeats Of the horse echo loud
and the sound Of the motor becomes a
giant dynamo. Sometimes the cross
road is overarched with trees, as 1t is
below the gray cottage, and the sum-
mer sunlight only filters through in
patches--such compelling, mysterious
intimacy as there is to the crossroad
then.
The young folks call the crossroad
lovers lane" The old folks used to
call 1t "lovers' lane" when they were
young and drove under the arched
branches or jlngled over the road in
sleighs, while the round moon laid the
shadows Of the black branches meet
Ing overhead In etchings on the snow.
Lovers lane"-every county owns
one There was a lovers lane In
Sangamon county Illinois, and Abe
Lincoln walked along 1t with Ann
Rutledge In the '30s-solders sang
about lovers lane'-may all the lit
tie crossroads that now are lovers
lanes never, never become arterial

OPPORTUNITY WAS TOO GOOD
How Justice Story Got a Laugh at
the Expense Of Two Highly Dis
tingulshed Americans.

President John Quincy Adams was
one Of those uncomfortable persons
who are up ut work by some ungodly
hour of the morning, and he was Just
n bit vain about it-that is, as vain as
n good Puritan ever allowed himself
TO get. But still everybody knew that
the President got up at five and
worked straight through to eleven. He
was paying visit to Harvard college
one time when Justice Story Of the
Supreme court was delivering series
of lectures to the newly organized
law school, and President Willard OF
Harvard, another early riser, took him
over to hear the justice.
Now, Story was a notorious bon
vivant; he got up late and in other
ways acted like q civilized person.
He began his lecture with the Presi-
dent of the United States seated at
his right and the president of Har-
ward at his left. 1t was drowsy af-
ternoon along in May. Pretty soon he
heard litter from the audience and.
looking out Of the corner of his eye.
what did he see but the President OF
the United States sound asleep. Then
he looked over to the other side Sure
enough. Willard had also succumbed
and was nodding away.
With twinkle in his eye Story
turned to the boys and remarked:

suits OF incorporate rlslngw

sweIlg Pride.

Mrs. John d. Rockefeller, Jr., made
a graceful little speech at the opening
OF the Grace Dodge hotel In Wash
ington. This hotel, which Mrs. Rookie
Teller helped to found, Is exclusively
for women. 1t has many novel fea-
lures. among them efaboraiely equipped
rooms where woman guests may laun-
der their own linen.
Comfortable, even luxurious as our
hotel is" said Mrs Rockefeller, there
are some women who will hesitate to
patronlze 1t out OF pride. Pride Such
pride reminds me Of story.
"Father, what is swellr little
boy once asked.
IA swell, son. the father an.
swered, is n lazy loafer whose sole
claim to Importance lies in the fact
that he once had an ancestor who
devoted his life TO hard and honest
work."

SPECIALIZE ON CHINCH BUGS
Particular Reason Why Farmers
Should Act to Protect the Bob
white Quail From Hunters.

Every shot fred this season at the
bobwhites that are winterng In your
fields is shot at your pocketbook,
says Farm and Ranch. Quails de-
stroy millions Of alternating bugs that
would otherwise awake in the spring
to fan hungrily upon the product Of
field and garden.
while you fight the chinch bug,
redouble your efforts to Increase bob.
white qualls," says A. G. Burill OF
the Missouri College Of Agriculture.
"They are said to eat from 500 to
1000 chinches at a meal, and their
stomachs crave another meal every
two hours. At least, this Is the usual
rate Of digestion In most insect eating
birds. Quails are the only wild birds
which specialize on chlnch bugs In the
winter season."
To protect the bobwhite the most
effective plan Is for several farmers
comparatively to publish a notice in
the county papers forblddlng hunters
to shoot Qualls on their premises.
This has been done successfully in
several Missouri communities. Many
county papers are running such no
tees properly drawn up by lawyer
and kept standing In the paper
throughout the hunting season. In
such cases the publishers will add the
name of any farmer in the county and
keep II there for, say, so cents for the
season.
Protect the qualls; they will fight
your bug battles for you-wlnter and
summer.--Our Dumb Animals.

Water 80 Cents a Gallon.

Water isn't quite up to the price of
liquor, but 1t is almost there at Cow
Camp,-the drlest point on the Silver
Peak range, near Tonopah, New. They
are paying 80 cents gallon for 1t, and
residents are agreeing that 1t is cheap
Mt the price. There isn't any competi.

Special Dispatch to The Tribune

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, March 30
Chances for the completion of the
Muscle Shoals government projects are
far brighter now that the members Of
the House Military Affairs Committee
and Senate Agricultural Committee
have inspected the huge unfinished
dams and idle nitrate plants on the
Tennessee River and Florence
Members of the two committees,
passing through Chattanooga to-day on
their way to Washington, expressed
themselves as amazed at the magni-
tude of the plants, and the commercial
and industrial possibilities involved in
their completion. Many Of those who
formerly were bitter opponents of ad-
ditional appropriations for the plant,
regardless Of whatever offer was made
for it, have announced their conver-
sion.
The Ford offer will be reported fa-
vorably by the House Military Affairs
Committee if he agrees to pay the
overfowe by the construction of Dam
contract so as to abide by the terms
of the Federal waterpowcr act, except
that 100 years be substituted for the
fifty year provision of the act. This
is the attitude Of members of the House
Military Affairs Committee.
In the event Mr.. Ford fails to make
these notifications in his offer it is
considered likely that the committee will
recommend to Congress that appropria-
tions be made for the government itself
TO complete Wilson Dam, leaving the
other features OF the project in

In the early morning Of March 21
Detectives Andrew and Genevieve Nc
Laughlin, of the 4th Inspection Dis
trict, paid 81 and some cents apiece for
two highballs which they purchased
in the Piccadilly Rendezvous, 121 West

made four arrests for violation of the

girls into custody for wearing what
they considered unduly abbreviated
costumes and went home well pleased

They are still confident that they
obtained valuable evidence, but it de-
veloped in West Side court yesterday
that the crime in question was not that
which they charged, The chemist who
analyzed the drinks for the govern
ment reported that despite the price
the highballs contained less than half
of 1 per cent of alcohol by volume. The
three walters on trial were discharged.
The five other prisoners taken in the
xaid had already been released. One,
the head waiter, was turned loose for
lack of evidence, while the abbreviated
attire" Of the girls proved so much to
the liking Of Magistrate Bernard J
Douras that he held it was not at ali

u. :. Asked to Protect
Greeks in Asia Minor
Letter Read to Meeting Tells of
Turning of "a Villages and
Massacres by Turks

Resolutions were passed last night at
meeting of the Greek American Club,
III East Twenty-tirst Street, calling
on Secretary Of State Hughes to take
diplomatic action for the protection
Of Greek Christians in Asia Minor.
where recently twenty -four Greek viii
lagos were burned and their inhabi-
tants massacred by Turks.
About 300 attended the meeting. The
principal speaker was Episcopal Bishop
James Darlington. Of Harrisburg, Pa.
Bishop Darlington read letter re-
ceived by him recently from Professor
D. NJ. Kebadgy, former Greek Ambas-
sador to Switzerland, telling in detail
of the massacres and burnings and
urging Bishop Darlington to take such
action as he deemed appropriate to
bring the situation to official attention
in the United States.
Bishop Darlington said the burnings
became known when the Patriarch of
Constantinople wrote to the Arch
bishop of Canterbury pointing out that
the Greek army had been scattered all
over Asia Minor and was unable to
concentrate sufficient forces for pro
lection of many widely separated viii
lagos.
Dr.. Talbot Rogers, of Sunbury, Pa;
Bishop Papken Gulesariar, of Armenia,
and others addressed the meeting.
Bishop Gulesaran told Of his expert
ences in the Armenian massacres per
petrated by Turks during the World
War.

where receiving sets have been in

some districts the sets in homes are

estimate by Department Of Commerce
experts placed the number of amateur
and professional receiving sets in the
country at we'll over half million.

the manufacturing concerns are unable

the total will reach more than 900 600
