When he did this, Raggedy Andy saw two rabbits drop out of the magician's coat tails. so he went around in back of the Magi- clan and put two stones in the place where the rabbits had dropped from. And the Magician did not even know it.

 "I'l bet you nickel eomethinE will happen, Mister Raggody Andy!' the Magician cried as he took a nickel from his pocket.
 "I haven't any nickel" Raggedy Andy said.
 Then I will bet you a nickel against nothing" the Magician said as he gave Raggedy Andy the nickel.
 Now watch me closely, for the closer you watch, the less you shall see. One, two, three, Hokus Pokus! : Now I remove the handkerchief and you will see that I have two rab. bits in my hand."

 Katherine.
 As ran along the hall from Lil- lian's room ro mine, in which the sick girl lay, I wondered what un- lucky chance had left that door open for Leo Chow's unexpected and treacherous entrance. Then, as l reached the door and saw the table which Katherine had placed in front of the bed, l realized that the little nurse had gone on some errand for the sick woman, and had taken her usual precaution against her unconscious patient rolling out of the bed while she was absent from the room.
 Lee Chows hands were upon the table by the time l entered the room, and before l could reach him he had thrust it aside, but between him and me With his hand upon the unconscious girls shoulder, he was shaking her, not bru.ally but with a roughness which mortified me, nevertheless.
 I dashed toward him, calling out, Stop" But l halted as the girls eyes flew open and fixed upon his with glad look of recognition.
 "Oh, Lee Chow. Lee Chow" she said, ta,ntly, but with all the effect of shout. You will help me find him."
 He had released his grip upon her arm and he now stepped back a pace and folded his hands into his sleeves, looking down upon her with an inscrutablc face. As for me, I edged toward the window and screened myself behind the cur tain. for l had no desire to see the girls eyes fixed in recognition upon me. l had far too vivid recollec- lion of her former fancies that she knew me.
 NO good,' Lee Chow intoned monotouously, No can do, You know where boss man is. You tell me, not me tell you"
 I held my breath. What secret affecting Hugh Grantland lay hid den between these two queer strang- CTS who had come into my life? What answer would the girl make to the Oriental who had just ac- cused her of falsifying. His rougt treatment of her evidently had brought back, for the minute, al least. the memory she had lost, but from my hiding place I watched her face tcnsely, wondering how long she would be able 10 retair her grip upon her past.
 Light, quick footsteps came into the room, and Katherine's astound cd and wrathful voice demanded crispy:

resea rches along with volcanic fires
and earthquakes, as the total of all
natural CataclysmS ClaSsed together
represents a continuous process with
fewer lapses than earthquakes by
themselves This total admits of
schedule rating, and, moreover. 1t is a
world total, so that the organization
studying it should be international in
interest, like the Lloyds."
Prof Jaggar believes that such
program should appeal to business
men living on rivers subject to floods,
on shores subject to flood waves and
hurricanes. in Pacific and Mediter-
ranean cities subject to earthquake
and volcanic eruptions, and in the
more stable centers of research be-
cause finance is involved.
Support of research by local finances
in Chile, Peru, Costa Rica, California,
Alaska, New Zealand and other Brit
ish and French dominions would make
possible extensive researches which
could be co-ordinated by an interna-
tional board organized to underwrite
risk from natural disasters and to in
vestigate all kinds OF land hazards.
Thus a. new form of insurance might
take it's place in the commercial
world.
BY ascertaining when and where
volcanic disturbances will occur, by
preparing to meet such disturbances
with a minimum of loss of life and
property and by spreading the risk of
such losses over the entire community
through we'll devised insurance, man
will take big step toward mastery of
these manifestations of Mother Earth
which have proven SO inimical and so
fatal in the past.

Y. M. e. A. COLLEGE

The Washington School of Account
ancy will open its Fall semester on
September IA, with complete courses
in accountanCy and business admins
tration. The courses may be COM
pleted in three years time, or in less
time if Summer work is taken in ad-
dition to the regular Winter semes-
ters.
The three-year course offered. in
addition to preparing the student to
take the G. p. A. examinations, meets
the requirements of those c. P. A
boards that designate that a candi-
date, in order to take the examina-
ton for certified public accountant
must be graduate of a school of
recognized standing Upon compile
ton of the course the degree of bach
elor of commercial science is granted
Students desiring an additional year s
work may obtain this by taking the
work for the degree of master of com
mercial science. The shorter courses,
not leading to degrees, but granting
certificates, such as the two-year
course In banking and finance, the
special two-year course for business
men and the one-year course in busi-
ness law, will also be offered.
The fiye-year accountancy law
course. granting the degree of bache-
of the third year and the degree of
bachelor of laws at the end of the
fifth year, will be continued as here
tofore. The accountancy-law course
purposes to prepare students for the
bar and G.. P. A. examinations. Uni
sersities, such as Illinois, Michigan
and Ohio, have been using this sys-
tenn for several years. In this day of
specialization in both professional and
business activities it becomes quite
important for men about to enter the
active practice of law or accounting
to consider thoroughly the advantages
of completing courses in both profes-
sions as a means of increasing their
general public usefulness on the one
hand and their own personal reward
on the other.
The school of law. opening for the
Fall term on September 21, offers a
three-year course leading to the de-
gree of LII. B., and preparing students
thoroughly for the bar examinations
Graduates of the school Of law have
been very successful in passing bar
examinations in the District of Co,
