NORFOLK, Va, December 4.-Obliged
to abandon their search for the schooner
Bluebird, which is sailless and rudder-
less 400 miles at sea, the Coast Guard
cutters Carrabassett and Gresham are
returning to their home ports. The
cutters spent four days at sea
searching for the schooner. and failing
to find trace OF her anywhere, they
gave up the task.
The Bluebird is now said to be 200
miles east Of the position in which she
was sighted on Thanksgiving day by
the steamer Fort Victoria. which sup
piled the vessel with provisions and Of
fered to take off the crew.
The Gresham and Carrabasset went
100 miles beyond their cruising radius
in their search for the helpless schooner.
Any help the vessel receives now must
come from steamers passing near the
Bermudas or from British vessels pa
trolling those waters. :.
The Bluebird had her sails and rud-
der torn away.i in a storm November ~.
The fact that assistance was once OF

her skipper places the responsibility
for her present plight and her ere"
squarely UP to her master, and does pot
obllgate the Government to continue
the search.

Moreover, the entire commit nity would have learned that my ia ther's honest debts were not paid. And his name would have been dis honored."
 You do not feel that it has been dishonored by what happened last night-nor by your presence in that vile resort?"

 Mrs. Rodger B. Kennedy of Tusea- loOsa, sister of the bride, was matron of honor and only attendant. She was charming in peach voile made basque and carried an arm cluster of Ophel1a roses.
 As the wedding march was being played by Miss Mills, the. bride and groom entered together.

"People are funny" said Mir. Jarr, reflectively. "They get so far from the simple things of life" . What are you talking about?' asked Mrs. Jarr.
 I'm talking about this discussion about How can we make others love usT that's running in the. papers, said MT. Jarr.
 Well, we all want people to love us, but that's no. sign that you love them" said Mrs. Jarr, quickly, "and if they don't care enough for one to take one as one is, to put up with what is good enough for you, then their friendship and regard aren't worth having"
 ''So it is a vital question: then ,'' said Mir. Jarr, For those that love us we make no added effort to please. Those that do not love us we dress for and entertain in the hope they will love us. We want others to love us, then?'
 Certainly not!" replied Mrs. Jarr. "If people do not love me for myself I'm surely not going to put myself out to make them love me. l don't want such love ]"
 "Oh, but you do," said MT. Jarr. 'The question betrays a very human trait. Most of us want everybody to love us but we do not care to take the trouble to love everybody"

She can't use what she lays away in the closet because it turns yellow and spotted and is often too dusty, but she goes on saving paper just the same.
