man should be held to account,

"MANY A MICKLE MAKES
A MUCKLE"
By LAURA MILLER
}. 1928, by Laura Miller

If Old-Lady Fortune ever provided
you with an automobile headed way
south on the Dixie highway, you dis
covered a clean white-and-green town
which set you to wondering who had
a hand in making Orlando, Fla, un-
usual.
Well, one Of the makers, who yet in
sists that her part is only minor
one, is named Julia Chapman. It's
the spirit she's put into her two jobs
rather than the size Of her bank &C
count that you find yourself interested
In. For she sells tickets in the rail-
road station and insurance and loans
on those white Orlando houses. Those
sound like unexciting occupations to
carry on in the home town, don't
they? Unlikely to bring success or
fame or even contentment?
Miss Chapman developed the habit
Of doing the little things to the best
Of her ability. AS just one result, the
card Of her insurance company now
carries in the upper right-hand corner,
"Julia K. Chapman, Sec. and Treas"
Orlando, village when little Julia
Chapman, twelve years old, was or
phaned, as q winter resort now at
tracts thousands of tourists. Miss
Chapman sees in her ticket Office work
not monotonous, hateful job, but a
chance to help all who enter the Of
fee; an opportunity to take especial
care of the great number of the white
haired who come hunting sunshine to
warm old bones or to cure deep-seated
old-age diseases.
She must have made a pleasant
memory in the minds of many of the
10000 who annually pass her window.
For she has discovered that all over
the United States have spread stories
Of the efficiency of her Office.
The war crystallized. this reputa-
ton. Uncle Sam, through the railroad
administration, beckoned lean finger
at Julia Chapman and said, II need
you" A ticket sellers school for
young women was established at At
lanta. Miss Chapman trained the girls
to help win the war by selling rail-
road tickets-not just any way, but
Julia Chapman's way.
Whatever success and recognition
have come, she feels, are based on the
fact that II have made good in the
town I've lived in since ! was nine
years old. A young woman in Flor
Ida town has great advantages she
could not find in strange city. Here
she can grow and expand as the town
does"

They have lost everything. We have

They have lost everything. We have
nothing to lose.
The horror of those first days OF
scared the minds and hearts of the
refugees for they can tell of the most
horrible personal events without an
evident trace of emotion. One WON
an have met, countess, tells this
gruesome story, in such detached
manner that one cannot believe it is
her own husband of whom she is
speaking.
"The night my husband was taken
| by the revolutionists we were forced
to go with them and watch the execu.
ton. We were taken to dock in
the harbor where a long row of mon
archists were lined along the edge
each one with a weight tied to his
feet. My husband was among them
"After the shooting there was SO
much blood that it swished along the
boards like river and splashed over
rents that the harbor actually turned
red.
"The next day I hired a diver to go
down after my husband so that !
could bury him. He came up almost
Immediately without the body and re-
fused to dive again. He was pale and
shaking and he said to me, cannot
go down there again. All those men
are standing in row and bowling to
me-"
Her young daughter sent another
shudder through me when she told
of seeing numberless men shot or
hanged.
"But how could you look?" asked.
didn't it make you dreadfully ill.,"
"Oh," she replied indifferently,
"Simetimes it gave me headache"
The franc, as you know, has
dropped perilously near to rs for the
dollar during the last week and the
situation looks very grave indeed. 1t
doesn't seem improbable now that it
will go to 80. Even experts admit it
and add that such an event may bring
disaster. In such a case, revolution
can easily follow. 1t is hard to be-
lieve that the French, so passionate
ly fond of their country, would so far
forget this love as to wreak harm.
However, history proves that this very
thing has occurred more than once
and history does repeat itself.
the meantime the cost of living is
increasing at an alarming rate. We
Americans are not affected on ac-
count of the decline of the franc
Since we arrived three months ago
bread, sugar, bacon, milk and all the
staples have been raised three times
each time more drastically. Fares
on all autobuses, subways and trans
and in the taxis have gone up. Rail-
way fares are to be increased 60
per cent.
The nation is counting much on the
arrival of hundreds of thousands of
tourists this spring and summer when
the Olympic games will be in progress
in Paris. Already the cost Of rooms
is rising and on account of the great
numbers expected almost any amount
can be asked-and had-for them
this summer. Restaurants are falling
in line.
With love,
