Ii. .. P. MAN HAS
 PRAISE FOR DAVIS
Petty Says He Might Have Been
 Named by Republicans

"if standards of living were the same In all countries and each coun- try produced what 1t could produce best free trade would be a fine thing" Lieutenant Colonel orville Petty declared at the rally held in Lithuanian hall last night under the auspices of the Fourth Ward Re- publican club but as they are not, a protective tariff is needed" He went on to tell what he saw in Europe this summer, saying that everywhere he went the people were poor and sad, worked long hours, and received little pay. Under con- ditions such as these, he said, that continental industries could produce much more cheaply than English or American firms and undersell Amer ican manufacturers unless they had a protective tariff
 England Is now looking for a pro- tective tariff, Lieut.. Col. Petty said, as the recent loan to Germany will enable 1t to take It's place in the market again and run British indus- tries out of business. He admitted that a tariff raised prices, but he said that 1t also raised wages, and declared 1t is better to pay little more and be able to pay than to pay little less when you can't pay" He charged the democratic party with deserting it's free trade tradi- tions in recognition of this.
 Attack on La Toilette
 Lieut.. Col. Petty, who was chap lain of the 167th infantry during the war and is now in the 169th infan- try, also attacked La Follette's prin- cipal blanks. He said that govern ment ownership of railroads would be fatal to'all parties concerned, the government, those owning stock, the workers, and the travelling public. He belitted La Policies, claims of supreme court fallibility, saying that in 135 years there had been only seven decisions made by 5-4 vote and that generally the justices were unanimous Congress could also de- eide by one vote, he said,' and thought it was better for experts to

 And the Wizard who had been listening 10 what the kind little fat Captain had said to the Pirates now stepped forward and said, Captain, you can save your pennies, carse with my magic charms I shall make cupboard on this boat which will always be filled with nice food and all they will have to do will be 10 sail and sail and have lots of fun"
 Raggcdy Ann stepped up 10 the Wizard and whispered in his ear and tho Wizard smied and nodded his head, Yes" he said; an ice cream soda water fountain in the cabin would be very nice" So everyone shook hands with Red Higgins and the former Pirates and then went back 10 the little magic boat. And, as tho Pirate boat sailed away, the Raggedys and their friends could hear the former Pi- rates and Rcd Higgins singing frolicing sea songs and they knew the former Pirates would have nice voyage.

My goodness The Pirates were very frightened when Red Higgins and Walters daddy, dressed as po- licemen jumped from the magic boat to the pirates boat.
 The Pirates ran and hid where [ CT they conld find a place 10 hide. but Walters daddy and Red llig gins soon found them an1 lit .hr soles of their shoes real had with their policemen sticks.
 This made the Pirates cone out of hiding very quick and ey all begged not 10 he arrested.
 Well" Walters daddy said to them, Why shouldn't you be ar rosFd for taking the nice little fat Captains boat away from him when he vas kind enough to give you all two years vacation with pay? Just you tell mo that" But Of course, inc Pirates all knew that there was no answer, for they had done wrong, So they all hung their heads and began crying.
 "I 'spect we had better call tho little fat Captain and see what he wants us to do with the Pirates" Red Higgins said as he winked one eye at Walters daddy.
 T 'spect We had better do thai" Walters daddy replied, although he could hardly keep from largh- ing when he saw how frightened the Pirates were. So Rcd Higgins called the little fat Captain.
 And when the little fat Captain came aboard his own boat which had been Ncaptured by the Pirates, he was so glad 10 be there again. he said, 'I 'spcct I do not wish them arrested this time If they promise never 10 mutiny and be- come Pirates again."
 This pleased the Pirates very much and they all said, I've prom ise never, never to mutiny again Captain" and they all crossed their hearts which meant honest to goodness"
 So the little fat Captain said. Now that you have all promised to be good, tell you jus. what I shall do' I shall make Red Higgins the Captain of this boat cause the nice Wizard has given me another boat and if you men wish 10 sail away and hunt for burieI treasure. I will give you I wholc .,)t Of DC nies 10 buy food with and you can all have a nice advent Irr,'

 l stopped the car and turned around, to find Marion, who never complains with a little white line of pain around her mouth, and l realized that the child was suffer- ing from that most annoying of minor ills, q foot asleep.
 II don't wonder the child's legs hurt" Mother Graham snapped when lifted Junior to the ground and then assisted Marion down. There isn't room in here for one person, let alone three, even if two are children. l didn't know you were going to All the car up or would have gone in on the train."
 That this arrow was directed against Katie l well knew, and from the quick lifting of her head l realized that it had found its mark in my little maids heart.
 She made no other sign of re- sentiment, however, something for which l was most grateful. But her very humility made my resent mcnt hot against my mother-in- law, even as cast about in my mind for a solution of our luggage problem.

Letter From Leslie Prescott to the Gay Little Marquise, Care of the Secret Drawer,
 Continued

When Karl gave that rather pedantic reproof to Alice, felt eX- ceedingIy glad that l had married a real flesh-and- blood man who un- der the same circumstances would have probably taken me out of the room away from all the rest and shaken me until my teeth chattered, and then kissed me when l wept and acknowledged my pisdc- meanor, after which he, at least, would have forgotten the whole thing.
 That cold reproof, given before us all, showed me that while Karl Whitney could he the most delight ful Of friends and companions, he would have probably bored me to death as a husband.
 The whole thing, however, made q great impression upon John, probably because he never could have done it himself I think it has healed all the bad feeling be- tween the two men.
 Now, little Marquise, the whole family seems to be thinking only of the great loss it has sustained in the death of dear old dad, who wilt be buried tomorrow,
 l have not yet been able 10 make 1t all real. keep thinking I will wake up soon and look into my fathers eyes-eyes that have never contained anything for me but love and understanding 1t will probably be weeks before l will fully realize my loneliness without him, and the magnitude of my loss.
 I'm Wondering, dear little Mar ouise. if time ever softened your sorrow. or if you wcpt always in your heart. even when your lips smiled gailiy after the loss of your lover, the king. The few secrets you have told me are still locked securely in the lovely old desk. Johns mother did not succeed in finding the secret drawer, and shall take steps to make it perfectly certain that no one else does.
 shall always keep your one let ter there, dear little Marquise. for some way it seems to me you would like it so; but as that drawer is getting very full, l am going 10 take all my letters out on my return, with the exception of this long one. and place them in ny -wn safety

 ''If you miss your train it will be entirely your own fault" l returned with an air of complete detachment from his affairs.

 But my heart was singing, for there was something in the clasp of his arms and the warmth of his kiss which fortified me against his ab- seHce of the next few days.

SYAGE AND SCREEN

| The Now York Times critic, com mcnting on Ashes" says;
 For a player who has been Jon, absent from yirtuous roles, JMis, Florence Reed seemed quite at homo last evening as the blameless lady in Ashes" This was rather tepid entertainment by Reginald Goode dramatic at times and always liter. ate, but given to dozing now and then when 1t should have been wide awake. It was about an ac- tress who, though winning renown as an Interpreter of Cleopatra, lost her baby and her husband in the process - the ono by drowning, the other by inhdcity. Despite her harvest of barren regrets she seemed comparatively content at the end, as she banished her re- creant spouse, closed her theater and embarked for England to, be- gin life anew.
 The play gives Miss Reed j op- pertunities for the emotional en- thusiasms in which she is so pull sating. You see the actress in her dressing room on the first night of her triumph. surrounded by all the entourage of a New York wow" as the ticket call 1t. Bou- quets, telegrams and gentlemen in evening dress prevail, and the at mosphere Is one of Broadway hap piness. To complete her pleasure there is also a note from her baby daughter. Among the messages, however, comes the black news or that infants death in Bourne mouth, England. They keep the tid- ings from her for time, and you in the audience get all wrought up as you contemplate her present joys and impending miseries.
 William Harris, jr., sets anxiety at rest by announcing that at last he has picked a title for his first production of the season and that the comedy by Homer Miles will answer to the name of "Of a Sun day" George Gaul, J.
