Gloria Receives a Check for
$50 From

piled. Dicks been my husband
for a long time, and he's got to
pay for it!' Her little chin was firm
and hard.
She stood suddenly. Come on,
let's go downstairs. I'll wipe the
dishes for you" she offered.
In silence they cleared away the
dishes and set to work to wash
them

II Gloria's father came in from

been sprinkling his little garden.
well, what are you two so quiet
about?" he asked
Gloria laughed shalily.

$780," she answered, land Mother
and 1 don't know what to do
with it,
Her father came over to her and
laid his hands tenderly on her
shoulders.
Don't touch nickel of his
money" he said. He felt that what
ever the trouble was between Dick
and Gloria, it couldn't be his baby
girls" fault. So in his own mind
he blamed Dick for her unhappi-
ness.
1--WE took care of you twenty
years, daughter" he went on. Il
guess we can do it n while longer.
You send his money back to
him."
Gloria looked thoughtful. do
you know, 1 believe I Will" she said
suddenly. Tomorrow morning I'll
get up early and hunt a job. Thank
goodness 1 know how to earn a few
dollars!'
But she was filed with sadness
that night, as she sat in her room,
looking out into the dark street.
Behind her on the dresser the alarm
clock licked loudly. 1t was set for
o'clock in the morning.
Back to the old grind!' Gloria
said to herself miserably.
1t had tlways been hard for Clio
ria Gordon to rouse herself at break
Of day, and go out to work Ions
dreary hours. How much more diff
ficult it was going to be for Mrs
Richard Gregory, who had had hel
breakfasts in bed for many months
-. who had had her own home, hel
own automobile.

through the Help Wanted" column:
Of the paper as she slipped her cot

Here's an ad that looks pretty
good to me-" she said to her mother

rapher, with knowledge Of book
keeping. Good salary"
The address was that of a real
estate firm in the Hume Mansul
Bldg.
1T think I'll go there" Gloria
made up her mind. 1T may be the
very place want.
But when she got off the street
car in the downtown district, she
did not turn toward the Hume Man
sur Bldg.
Instead she went straight to Dick
office, with the eager swiftness of a
homing pigeon.
She pushed open the door and
stepped inside. Dick and Miss
Briggs stood talking beside the desk
in the inner room.
They looked up in surprise as Clio
ria came toward them. She did moi
sven glance at Susan Briggs.
Hello, Dick" she said. He die

BY rearranging letters AEEI,
OUDN, NNPP, RSST, you get eight
common English words, four reading
across, and four reading down. In
solving a puzzle like this it is al
ways wise to put the letters "E" in
the last columns. because in most
four-letter words that is the posi-

spirit is not dead on earth. Few coun.
tries have felt the sc0urge Of war more
than has Russia. She was the victim of
German intrigue when she was faithfully
fighting with the Allies; but the agents
of the Kaiser had a strange hold upon
those armies, and often there were
slaughters without sufficient ammunition,
and then without sufficient other equip
ment. But today, without sane leader
ship, or without the stability Of a great
nation. their military men see dangers
IN the future. With an alliance between
Germany and Japan, things would be
ugly for the rest of the world. But note,
from the following report, what their
military leader says:
Gen. FrunZ, cOmmissar of war, warns
the Russian people to be prepared for
war, which he believes may come as un-
eXpeCtedly as III 1914.
"Addrt Ssing d large gathering Of sup
pOrters of the Russian volunteer air fleet
last night, the war chief declared that
the recent meeting Of The general STATS
OF the Baltic States at HelsinRsfors to-
gether with the murder of two COmmun-
ish officers on the Polish border, showed
that Russia must be prepared to meet
attack from any quarter at any moment.
Although he believed the Entente coun-
tries were too occupied with economic
measures, he did not rule out the pos
sibility Of attack from them IN the tu-
ture.
The international situation he said,
is such that a conflict may arise at any
moment; therefore, we must go Oh pre-
pairing the forces of war.'''-The Chris

Pen Mightier Than Fist, Tax
Report hOW

Despite all that is said to the contrary,
literature seems to pay better in this
country than prize fighting, or perhaps
authors care not so good at figures as
prize fighters. At any rate, Rudyard
Kipling, famous British author, paid I'm
Gle Sam 81, 998 on the royalties he collec.
ted in 1924 through his American pub
fishers, while Jack Dempsey and Luis
Firpo, king pins of boxing in the 1924
season., paid onlyk$266 and 81, 448, res
pectively.
BootIeggers, according to. Frank l..
Fowley, in charge of auditing in the Sc
cond district, are scrupuIously honest in
their income tax dealings with Uncle
Sam. One b~ootIeqger furnished the gov
eminent with a complete record Of his
transactions and filed plea, supported
by sfidavits, for a deduction for losses
from hi-jackers who had stolen part Of
one of his cargoes.
Of course, the prohibition enforcement
department would like to have the treas
ury department turn over the bootleg
gers name and his records, but under
rules of the treasury department the
damaging evidence bootIeggers supply
