CHATTER 15& THOR the second time within a few
 weeks Marian Horton called at
 the study of the Rev. Harold Sumner.
 She did not tell her sister of her proposed visit. The two girls had met at breakfast in an elabOrately casual manner, and had not mentioned any intimate affairs. At 9 9:3O Marian left the house and walked downtown. She knew that the minister was to be found at the church study until :030. She did not telephone him that she was com ing. She had a vague fear that he might make an excuse not to see her.
 He certainly started in surprise Dor dering upon cOnsternation when in an- swer to his "Come!" she opened the door of his sanctum. Her consterna- tion equaled his when she saw that he had another caller, and that the caller was Deacon Banscombe.
 The minister's greeting was polite, that of the deacon stiff.
 II fear am interrupting yOu," Ma rian suggested, hesitating just inside the door. T can come at some other time if you are busy"
 The deacon answered before the min- ister could. 'I was just going away" he remarked, eyeing the girl cOldly. ''I have said all that have to say to Mir. Sumner, 50 I will bid you both good morning"
 Marian bowed dumbly as he passed her. Sumner went as far as the door with him, then returned.
 Wont you sit down?" he asked for mally, mOtioning her to a chair.
 Thank you, will," the girl said. "I wish you would do the same, as I must have a talk with you. Can you give me fifteen minutes, or have you some other engagementY
 "L have no other engagement just now," glancing at the clock. l have one, however, at eleven"
 T will release you long before then" his caller assured him. Then, as she sat down, she began without further preliminaries. ..s
 "Of course you know why am call ing on you, Mir. Sumner. I am sure that this interview is no more agree able to you than to me. Yet it is one of the things that must be gone through with. It is the penalty we both pay for having been at Leisle's last night"

Removal of Wells
Arab WOmen'S Aim

/ Jerusalem. Aug. Is GA. p. by mail)
j The stubborn conservatism of the
Mohammedan custom with regard TO
the social isolation of the women in
Palestine may soon give way before
! the movement launched by Arab
Yeminists for the removal of the veil
The Holy Land, backward in many
respects, is behind such Moslem
countries as Turkey and Egypt in
breaking the shackles holding women
in ssclusion.
The movement for the enfra nchise-
ment of Moslem women in Palestine
is of recent origin and is traceable
to the influx of people from the west.
especially Jewish immigrants coming
TO settle in their national home.
AS the first step towards their
emancipation the women demand &C.
clesiastical sanction for the removal
of the dark veil from their faces. II
such flying in the face of long
custom does not win official approx
al. some of the leading Arab women
of Palestine are determined to do
what their Moslem sisters did in
Turkey. where the veil has been en-
tirely cast off. or at least in Egypt.
where only a light transparent veil
lis still worn extending from below
the nose.
The ban on the public appearance
OF women has retarded the develop
ment of the Arab drama, and it is
the hope OF the feminists that the
admittance of Moslem women to the
theatrical stage will follow the re-
moval Of the veil.
Take US out OF our insulting Sc
clusion and remove from our faces
the offensive black cloth. give us our
opportunity as free members of a
free people. granting US the right to
fight with you for our national
Ideals says in part an appeal ap-
pearing recently in an Arab language
newspaper in Haifa. Then we shall
in gratitude sacrifice our jewels. de-
Hvering up our gold and precious
stones for the establishment Of the
Arab National Bank"

Safer Roads Due
To Highway Police
SAYS Gov. Baxter

Gov. Percival P. Baxter in a state
ment Tuesday said that during the
present season he has travelled 10000
miles on the roads of Maine and has
been into every nook and corner OF
the state.
In my opinion, our roads are
safer today than ever before" con-
tinued Gov. Baxter. There is less
reckless driving. and our people
gradually are learning how to handle
themselves and their motor cars.
Out Of State cars. especially those
from Massachusetts. are the chief OF
tenders against the rules Of our
roads.
THE marked improvement in the
way motor cars are driven in my
opinion is due principally to the good
work OF our State Highway Police.
These men are faithful public SER
wants. engaged in. difficult and Of
ten times thankless work. They
come in contact with all sorts OF
persons. reasonable and unreason-
able. intelligent and illiterate. and it
requires tact to handle them and
keep them within bounds.
"Our citizens have reason to be
proud Of these guardians of our
safety. They work day and night,
take many chances of personal in
jury and are handling the situation
we'll. Even though the traffic on our
roads will be lightened in the course
of month or two, these men should
be retained by the State throughout
the year. That is the only way to
build up competent force.
Il want these men to realize that
the people of Maine are standing be-
hind them and that they will be sup
ported in every way. One thing is
especially fortunate and that is that
this force is entirely out of politics
Officers who do their duty can be
sure that 1t will be appreciated and
that no influence of money or pom
tics en- disturb them"
