CALLS FOR sELF-SAcRlFIcE
Improvement of Community condi.
tions Necessarily Involves More
or Less Work and Service.

Work and service always are to be
linked up in efforts to improve COM
munity conditions and to build bet
ter city. Time that might be en-
ployed profitably in ones own busi-
ness and energy that might be turned
to good account in personal affairs
must go into these undertakings for
the benefit of others, the public gen.
orally. The situation is not frequently
enough realized, either by those who
connect themselves with public bene-
fit efforts or by the public. Often it
is the case that movement laudable
and necessary comes to nothing be-
cause many of those who start it do
not see the work ahead for them IL 1t
is to be pushed to success.
Often citizens find fault with a
movement and with those who sacri-
fee their individual interests in con-
nection with it. This condition makes
community progress difficult and slow.
1t makes some of the best citizens
hesitate to lend themselves to the
most unselfish and public-spirited UNI
dertakings.

Weller Would BE Mortified.

The British government is quite anx-
lous to restore the manhood which it
lost in the war, and for this reason it
has been encouraging the marriage Of
young widows. Much success has at
tended this policy, with the widows
marrying in number as high as 1000
a month. The public policy has been
to give a years pension to every war
widow who remarries.- The govern
ment can well afford to do this, since
when the widow marr.es naturally her

advice he needed during the period of
prosperity but he, with us all, suffer
ed depression. There clearly must
have been something lacking to en-
able him to go on the even tenor of
his way. The answer is very plain.
1t is that some means need to be pro-
vided to enable the farmer, after his
labor has been expended, when the
crops have been harvested, or when
his live stock have reached the stage
where he must ship it, to liquidate his
indebtedness He must have some
body interested in him sufficiently,
not altogether. from his own stand
point, but from the standpoint Of the
banker and business man, so that he
can put his products on the market at
the time when they will bring him the
most
do not mean to indorse every i'm
aginable scheme for cooperative
marketing, but do believe the basic
idea is worthy of consideration from
the baake r's standpoint as well as
the farmers standpoint. Bankers are
certainly interested in the farmer by
reason of the fact that they cannot be
prosperous in their own business un-
less the farmer also is prosperous.
They must interest themselves in the
farmer, not only in giving him the
business advice he needs and in
financing him during the period of
construction, but also in helping him
place his products on the market at a
time when they will bring him the
cost of production, plus a reasonable
addition for his services and in pay
ment for his labor expended.

A condition that affects the farmer,
cutting off his purchasing power, de-
stroying his belief in himself, in the
banker and in everybody else, can
only bring about a chaotic condition,
which affects every business man and

Gay Colors in Coats to
Distinguish the Season


Top coats are Invaluable for motor
ing, for travel, for cool days In the
country or at the seashOre. They are
equally smart with the simple frocks
or the chic box suits which are so new.
The gayety of their coloring reminds
one OF the present vogue for umbrellas
Of purple and red and bright blue.
Just because the weather happens to
be disagreeable, we've learned, Is no
reason for us to put on somber APP
pearance and be as cherries as pos
sible ourselves. And It's so much
brighter, on a rainy day, to look down
on bobbing sea Of gay umbrellas than
a somber stream of dark ones.
It's the same with coats. and it's
well to remember this when you go
to select your new spring one. It's the
season of bright colors, remember. 1t
will-be easy, too. to find gay color
which is becoming to you and of which
you won't grow tired. If you have a
becoming little hat, which You caE
wear with it. you won't have to bother
about the coat being perfect match
for all your frocks, as the new spring
coats are all-enveloping anyway.

seemed fully able4o grasp that man
had been murdered almost before our
eyes.
Doctor King had been working over
Miss Potter, and she now opened her
eyes and glanced around wildly. She
saw the body at her feet, and with
a little cry asked, What's happened? p
No one answered for a moment /;
and then BARLEY replied simply,
Someone has murdered the chauf-
feur."
At the word murder she gasped and
covered her eyes with her hand. After

mered, "H-how-who?"
No one attempted to answer. The
truth was that no one could. All we
knew was that he had been killed by
the knife that was now in Bartley's
hand. But how, why, and by whom
it was done, none of us knew. 1t
seemed incredible that anyone could
have crept up to, the murdered man
in the dark without being heard by
those seated on either side of him.
His cry had lasted but the barest
fraction of a second 1t seemed scarce
ly time enough between the moment
when the lights went out and the time
when the cry came for anyone to have
come up to him, murdered him, and
gotten away again. The murder must
have been committed by someone near
him. On one side of him had been
Miss Potter; and, on the other, Roche.
Roche was above suspicion; police

he attempts to escape. Then l re-

to strike the blow. 1t dawned ON me-

At this moment Roche hurried into
the room, his fat red face flushed to
an even redder hue, shis eyes wide
and curious.

but the reporters are bowling their
heads off. They want to know what
has happened"
The attorney gave BARLEY an ap-
pealing look.
IF were you," BARLEY told him,
II would call the inquest OFF for to-
day at least. You have heard all the
important evidence What Briffeur
might have said we shall never know.

what happened to the poor chap"
He turned to Doctor King. 'If

the reporters, Roche, that we will
talk to them later"
AS both King and the district attor-
ney nodded, Roche hurried from the
room, but returned a moment later.
Again we stood hesitating. no one
seeming to know just what to do next,
waiting for BARLEY to take the lead.
Seeing that we were depending on
him, he walked to the desk where
King had sat, and called US around
him.
Silently he turned the knife over
