ROAD MEN WILL MEET

NOiO Au LSAN w I'LL ~ - -
Richmond, Va, Jan. 1.-The Vlr-
ginia Good Roads Association will
meet in annual convention in Roanoke
January 30 for a three-day session,
according to announcement made here
today by V. D. L. Robinson, execu-
tive secretary of the association. Spe-
cial interest centers in the approach
ing convention because Of the fact
that it will convene just month prior
to the extraordinary session of the
General Assembly of Virginia, which
mas been called to enact legislation
with reference to financing the work
of the State Highway Department,
Henry G. Shirley, chairman of the
Virginia Highway Commission, Will
be one of the speakers at the conven-
ton. 1t is believed that the conven-
ton will name a committee to come
here and urge the passage of a meas
ure by the General Assembly pro-
viding for a bond issue for the rails
ING of funds for road building. The
association has always favored this
method rather than the so-called pay
as-you-go" plan.

BIG STRIKES =
IN PAST YEAR
Outstanding Domestic Features of
.- 1922 Are Railway and Mine
Strikes

= New York, Jan. l The outstand-
ing purely domestic features of 1922
in this, country were the coal and rail
strikes. Of these the coal strike was
the more important, as it was and is
actually felt by practically the whole
country.
Thousands of people are now suf-
fering from the lack Of fuel, and, ac-
cording to authorities, no immediate
relief is in sight. The rail strike, with
the consequent weakening of trans
portation facilities is in part respon-
sible for the present coal condition.
After numerous negotiations had
failed the miners suspended opera
tons on April /. They demanded 4
raise in wages and the operators
threatened a cut. The strike affected
100000 mineds, 260 colleries and 55
companies. Many casualties resulted
from battles between the miners and
bands Of strike breakers, the greatest
tragedy being the Herrin massacre, in
which 20 men lost their lives.
Inc miners ana the operators reach
ed an agreement in Philadelphia on
Sept. 2, which was resumed on Sept.
II. The agreement is to hold Tor one
year. Although their demands were
not granted, the miners claim vic
tory, because their wages were not
cut.
The rail strike began on July I,
when nearly all OF the 100000 union
rail shopmen walked out. Troops
were called out in various parts of
the country to quell disorders, and
travel was completely tied up in many
sections.
One of the features of the early
part Of the strike was the Narrowing
of II transcontinental trains with p
500 passengers in the Arizona desert.

Hunting Season
Soon To Close
Comes to End West of Blue Ridge
Today And East of Ridge
February /.

Richmond, Jan. 1.-The general
hunting season in the eastern part OF
Virginia will not come to an END
until Feb. /, but the hunters have
been in the fileds and woods for near
" two months, and it is known that
the sason will go down in history
as only a fair on. East of the Blue
Ridge the cold spring rains prevent
cd the Matching of many cartridges
AS a consequence the coveys have
either been small in number or, where
the birds We're Matched after the rains
the young birds have been small in
size.
West of the Blue Ridge the birds
Jared better, and the shooting this
season has been good. The open sea-
son in the counties west of the Blue
Ridge will come to an end with the
close of this week, practically a
month earlier than the ending of the
season in this part of the state. Both
seasons began on Nov. l.
The principal state law in relation
to the seasons for hunting reads as
follows:
at shall be unlawful to kill or
capture in any manner, or to have
in possession any wild turkeys,
pheasants, grouse, quail, cartridges
or woodcock east of the Blue Ridge
mountains between Feb. l and Nov.
!, and vest of the Blue Ridge noun
tains between Dec. 81 and Nov. /.
or to track or hunt any of them in
the snow, or to trap or net them at
any time, or buy or offer for sale
or sell at any time any robins, grouse,
quail, patridges or wood
cock, or to destroy their nests, eggs
or young at any time, or to kill, chase
or capture or buy, offer for sale or
have in possession any wild deer be-
tween Feb. 1 and Oct. l. or to track
or hunt them in the snow"
The same law prescribes that the
open season on squirrels shall run
from Aug. Is OF Feb. /, but resi-
dents of this state may kill squirrels
or rabbits at any time on their own
land
Owing to governing provisions of
the federal migratory bird act the
open season on woodcock comes to
an end on Zee. 81.
BY an act approved March q, 1922,
the sale OF live deer or deer meat is
prohibited in Virginia for two years
from the date of the act.

Radio Brings Pleasure
To The Lumberiacks

Minocqua, Wis, Jan. Long
dreary evenings in the lumber camps
Of northern Wisconsin and the Upper
Peninsula of Michigan are things of
the past.
a new day has dawned for the lum-
berjacks-at least for those employed
in several camps here and Marquette,
Mich.
No longer will the '.jacks" after a
hard day of labor have to sit on the
edge Of his bunk, smoke his pipe and
"cuss" about the drearyness and lone
someness of the idle hours in the
camp. .., l..t.
Many lumber companies have de-
cided to chase away the blues and
fill those idle hours with something
worth while. In many Of the camps
this is being brought about by install
lation of radio receiving apparatus,
One outfit has been at Vail Spur,
near Marquette, Mich, with Raymond
st. Cyr as operator.
Every evening, instead Of sitting on
their hunks listening to wornout

jacks are thrilled by the experience
of listening to concerts and speeches
being given in places far distant. In
addition, the radio is educational, as
it keeps the wcodsmen informed of

CHAPTER V


This scream seemed to come from
the room where we had heard voices.
With common impulse, Sinclair and
/ both started down the hall, only to
find ourselves met by a dozen wild in
terrOgations from behind as many
quickly opened doors.
Gilbertine's door was reached first.
In it stood a short, slight figure,
wrapped in a hastily-donned shawl.
The white face looked into ours as We
stopped, snd we recognized little Miss
Lane.
"What has happened" she gasped.
at must have been an awful cry TO
wake neverybody SOL"
where is Glbertine?" demanded
Sinclair.
She drew herself up with sudden
dignity.
I'm bed" she replied. at was she
who told me that somebody had
shrieked. didn't wake"
Sinclair uttered sigh Of the great
est relief that ever burst from 4 mans
evorcharged breast. -.
Tell her we will find out what it
Means" he replied.
LET us hasten" whispered Sinclair
"Our eyes must be the first to see
what lies behind that partly-opened
door"
| shivered. The door he had desig-
mated was DorOthy's.
Sinclair reached it first and pushed
il open. Dorothy was not in the lit
tie chamber. With an impulsive ges-
ture Sinclair pointed TO the bed-it
had not been lain in. The communal
eating room, in which Mrs. Lansing
slept, was also lighted, but silent as
the one in which we stood. Mrs.
Lansing was not the woman to sleep
through q disturbance. Where was
she then? Had she followed her niece
from the room? | was for retreat
ing and hunting the house over for
Dorothy. But Sinclair drew me across
the threshold of this silent room.
Well was it for us that we entered
there together. On the bed lay 4
form-awful, CHASTITY, and unspeak-
ably repulsive. The head was sur
rounded with the gray hairs of age,
and the eyes, which seemed to stare
into ours, were CLASSY. This CLASH
ness told the tale of the rooms grim
silence. IL was death we looked on;
not the death we had anticipated"
As a realization of the awful truth
came upon me, l stumbled against the
bcdpost, looking on with almost blind
ewes as Sinclair bent over the rapidly
whitening face. And l was still
standing there when Mr.. Armstrong
and all the others came pouring in. /

"Apoplexy!"
Then | began to look about me ana
peer into the faces crowding up on
every side, for the only one which
could give me back my self-possession.
But | beheld no Dorothy, and was
therefore but little astonished when |
heard the cry go up:
"Where is Dorothy? Where was
she when her aunt died?"
Alas, there was no one there to an
swer, and the looks of those about,
which hitherto had expressed little
save awe and fright, turned to Won
der, and more than one person left
the room as if to look for her. | did
