"Yes-yes-on the dot" She
turned and walked. shaking from
the place.
That night she said to Jennie:
II get my vacation next week.
Jennie's sweet eyes raised:
"Well. I'm glad, dear: you need
it, you're all worn out"
And because her mother, stand
ing behind the chair, ran her
soft hand across Chickie's fore
head, she fled into her own room,
bursting into tears.
1t was Tuesday, the first week
of September. There was box
in Chickie's drawer, and on a
day when she thought her heart
was broken she had gathered all
his letters, tied them here, writing
on the cover: Jennie or Jonathan
Burn this as Is, please! BY order
of your darling Chickie."
Now she took this box and
stole into the kitchen, lifted the
cover from the stove, watched
the clean, golden flames wreatne
about the many sheets-even
about his picture.
Jennie said. What destruction
is this, dear?"
Chickie laughed: "Oh, your dar-
ling daughters past"
Strange the phone should ring
just then. Chickie ran to it and
even running, knew.
You want to see me, CHECKER
Quiet, like that. But 1t was
thunder sweeping through her
heart, opening 1t with joy.
She whispered in a voice all
broken: Barry? Really-you're
here?"
YES"
really?"
Not tonight. chickie. can't.
I've only a little while now"
oh - Oh - wait - wait a mo-
ment-" She chung to the phone,
fighting against the hardness in
her throat. Finally: II have to
see you, Barry, please"
Tonight, Chickie? Can you
meet me them"
He told her the place; the res
taurant where they often ate
the booth they used to take.
In her relief it seemed that all
her veins were melting-warmed.
She kept crying as she tried to
dress and murmuring to herself:
Stop-oh, I'll look d fright
oh, here! Here"
And then her eyes grew bright;
grew dewy and tender. She leaned
on the comb, not knowing if she
cried or If she laughed. She
made herself most radiant. He
might love her all anew, seeing
lilies and stars about her. He
might be glad-might want it all
brought back again.
She kissed Jonathan; she laid
her cheek on his. She ran back
and kissed him again, pretending
that she had dropped her hand.
kerchief.
And as she rode down town
ardent words Of his sang in her
memory. Their love was a light.
T, ed wave. magnificent, sweeping
over cliffs; beauty in the power
and the dash of it. Think of it
like that-he did! Loved what
was brave and free.
That morning he had come up
the hill, finding her so broken,
wiping her tears with his hand.
whlspering-a new, warm gentle
ness in all his look-"Love you.
Chickie? Always-more than ever
"a thousand times!"
Even at the last his memories
of her were sweet and all his
thoughts were filled with tender
ness. He wrote that.
Now recalling it, a flame
touched her spirit. There were
prayers in her heart: "God-dear
God"
With little light rush she
went through the narrow passage
to the booth, her pretty hand ex-
tended. She said: Barry! l knew
you'd come-Barry-"

They point to the fact that the

Gross Inequality The Couldn't Be Hidden

Washington conference. Since then
the United States instead of being
on a 1913 ratio, is as to most units
below the British navy.
How did Wilbur let the~c cat out OF
the bag? He and his naval advisers
had made estimates for money to
bring the navy up to equality with
the navy of Britain in sea craft,
up to France in aircraft and up to
Japan in fast cruisers. That esti-
mate if it were animate would speak
and say. The Washington confer
ence gave supremacy over the United
States to other nations. You must
have all the money you claimed to
have saved to bring us up to equality,
or advertise that the claims made
were not based upon facts"
OF course neither Secretary Will
bur nor his naval advisers wished
to get in bad by proclaiming the in
creasing comparative weakness of
our navy, particularly during a po-
litical campaign when the leading
claims of their superiors was that
the Washington conference had per-
formed wonders. But the law required
the estimates to be furnished to the
budget committee. The law had to
be obeyed.
1t is probable Secretary Wilbur
did not know his estimates would
be published during the campaign,
or if published would become an
issue or create a campaign sensa-
ton. But he could not do otherwise
than ask for the money to equip
the navy so it would be the equal
of any other. He was very con.
sentative. If the navy of the United
States is made equal to that of Brit
aims on the sea and France in the
ar. we must spend the 100000 900
the boosters of the Washington con-
ference say we have saved. Even
with the inferiority, the United
States is spending today twice as
much or its navy as Wilson spent
in 1915. The only way to really re-
drce expenses for navy and army
is an international agreement to re-
nit national differences to an inter
national tribunal. The attempt to do
so by such half baked arrangements
as were made in Washington will
prove ineffective.
