one-half OF one per cent as intoxicat-

opinion laughs, because that IS con-
trary TO its experience. Furthermore,
public opinion shows as yet no par
ticular fervor about achieving a total
stoppage OF alcoholic supplies from
those who want them. No serious
stigma attaches to violations OF the
volstead law by private buyers. Fines
and like embarrassments may result,
but not disrepute. A good many fairly
decent people seem TO buy what they
want, and do not conceal 1t. The

WOMEN IN TRAINING FOR BUSi
NESS LEADERSHIP

Mrs. Lena Lake Forrest, president
of the National Federation of Business
and Professional Women's Clubs, Inc,
who is making her annual trip through
club territory, reports a most crafty
ing growth of B. p. W. clubs in every
state as against that of last year.
"The mobilization of business and
professional womens clubs in every
city is rapidly growing" she says we
have never known such enthusiasm
over this movement to unite the group
strength OF business women, in the
history of the organization, which now
numbers $4,000 members in Al states.
The southern clubs are growing in
numbers and in spirit; the western
clubs are fairly bounding with energy
and campaign plans: the northern
states report new clubs in every town
clubs that jump in membership from
the nucleus of 10 or 20 to a group of a
hundred or so in a few months-while
the east is displaying a notable eager
ness TO promote the work in every
respect. Our thriving B. p w. club
in Honolulu promises a representative
at our fourth annual convention at
Chattanooga in July, where we ex-
pect a large gathering of delegates
from every state.
THE business and professional
women display the most marked group
strength of any organization in this
country today. They are trained,
steady, proficient and willing to work
to promote the interests of themselves
and of the younger business women
who will be the leaders of tomorrow
In our recent mid-year council held at
Kansas City where is states were rep
resented at our executive board meet
ing. we were delighted to observe the
general attitude of cooperation, har-
mony and personal application that
marked the gathering. This will be
seen also at Chattanooga and the
same spirit will be taken back to the
individual clubs-such clubs as have a
marked influence on business and civic
betterment in every town.

studying the hideous captions upon the
paper, a pretense almost unconscious
on my part. For I didn't even see the
words that is, with my physical eyes
although they were burned into my
brain as If with a branding iron, ready
to come back to me at any monen
when I should dare to think OF them.
The immediate effect Of the hideous
threats, however, was to numb and
blind me, while my brain, as have
heard that OF a drowning person does,
flashed backward over the tragic years
OF my fathers life.
Until after my little mothers death
and my own marriage had never seen
the father, whose probable passing out
OF life had been heralded to me in so
sinister a manner. A great wrong 10
my mother and me was the reason for
this. My father had deserted my
mother, had run away with her dear
est friend when was but : years old.
How bitterly he had repepted and ex-
plated that wrong I knew from the
things he told me when he cameiback
into my life after searching for me the
world around.
He had always been q mysterious
figure, Robert Gordon, THE Quester"
of Broadway, as he was dubbed for his
eternal searching OF faces. and never
more so than when, after he had found
me, he returned TO South America,
where he had spent so many years.

said, was a member OF the secrst SER

suspected from the fact that brakes

even now, secreted IN the wrist watch
upon my arm, was 8 note dubbed by
my fathers message Of the highest i'm
portance, to be delivered TO Drake in
case OF my fathers death, or in receipt
OF code telegram from him.
But his work, hts sins, everything
else was dwarfed for me by the re-
alization OF his fate as tmaged by the
fearsome paper before me. With the
remembrance of his parting kisses and
his tears as vivid as II he had just left
me ! felt that I could not endure the
horror that had come TO me.
