1T NEVER PAYS - By Gilbert Roger

TT was growing towards twilight.
l. The three days were over!
Sally got up swiftly. She looked
out at the street, at the people
passing. She knew she had made
up her mind. For Jerry, for his
sake. There was no use fighting.
She'd go to Dan Shevlin, surren-
der to him, hating him, hating
him--and Jerry would live. Jerry
would live-that was all that mat
tered.
She drew in her breath quickly.
No need to tell Carlotta. She
couldn't tell her. She put on her
hat quickly and carelessly. AS

NEGROES WIN
SCHOOL FIGHT
Segregation Ruling Is Held
Against Law.

TRENTON, N. j., July 2.-Classi-
fication of pupils by groups must be
on grounds other then religion, ma
tionality or color, DIR. John Logan,
State commissioner Of education,
ruled in ordering reinstatement in
the school at Thoms River of Negro
children, who had been put in a
special class at South Toms River.
Negro residents of Berkeley and
Dover Townships, Ocean County,
had protested against the segrega-
ton of their children.
So intense was the feeling aroused
by the action of the county school
authorities that the case was carried
to the Supreme Court, and was
brought to the attention of the
Legislature, by Senator Alexander
Simpson of Hudson, who submitted
bill prohibiting such segregation.
The measure died in committee
and the decision of the Supreme
Court had not yet been handed
down.
A few days ago a demurrer filed
to upset the court petition, was dis
missed as being without merit and

present defense as they had not

This is the advice of r. Walter
Jarvis, park superintendent, who to-
day urged Indianapolis residents to
take advantage of the extensive

Some of our parks are as cool
as any spot in town these sultry

the public should take advantage of
our shade trees and beautiful boule-
wards" Jarvis said.
Hundreds of children are taking
daily advantage of activities SUPER
vised by Recreation Director Jesse

vantage of the pools and beaches to
keep cool.
All sorts of athletic sports are

afternoon and evening. Picnic
grounds and the bride path at Riv-
erside are also offered. Several new
comfort stations and shelter houses

AIR CONQUEST
OF SEA ENDED
BY BYRD'S HOP

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, July Though
strictly speaking he failed his pur-
~pose-that of landing in Paris
Commander Richard Byrd was
hailed by experts here today as de-
finitely having completed the con-
quest of the air for practical pur-
poses.
The skill with which he prepared
his trans Atlantic flight, the very
nature of his difficulties. and the
fact that he came through" in a
specially provided rubber boat after
alighting at sea-all these made his
attempt of historic and scientific
valuee, it was said.
While the previous transatlantic
flights of I,indbergh and Chamberlin
were more in the nature of stunts, y
the Byrd flight was of practical
nature, the plane carrying four pas
sengers and keeping in touch with
the world at all times by radio.
The scientific data secured by
Byrd is expected to be most valu-
able in planning future trans
oceanic flying, whether it be by air.
plane or dirigible, which some ex-
perts consider best for ocean air
travel.
Byrd had bad weather practically
his whole route, but was able to
make his way through it by infor-
nation furnished by radio, turning
south from England when advised
of storms there.
Naval officials stress the fights
demonstration of the reliability of
the air-cooled engine and of the
effectiveness of radio in trans
oceanic air travel.
Byrd's radio, operating on 500
meters, established 1000 miles day
light range communication with
Roosevelt Field and range of 1000
miles night communication with the
Radio Corporation of America. BY
it the America obtained numerous
radio compass bearings.
Capt. T. T. Craven, chief of naval
communications, pointed out that
radio apparatus, like the air-cooled
motor, is being so developed that
high power is being obtained by less
and less weight, so that sets light
enough for airplane Use will be per-
fected in the future permitting di-
rect communication with land all
the way across the Atlantic!
Assistant Secretary Warner, in
charge of aviation, said that the
provisions made by Byrd for sure
navigation and for keeping con-
stantly in communication, mark it
definitely as another step toward
the safe and regular employment OF
aircraft over long stretches of sea,
not as a single bold adventure, but
as a normal incident of normal oper-
alton in the service of mankind"

OFFICE COSTS
PARED To BONE
Even Rubber Bands and En-
veIopes Used Again
and Again.

Bp United Press
WASHINGTON, july 2.-The
Loyal Order of Woodpeckers"-
Uncle Sans economy fraternity
has saved the government several
million dollars in the last year by
thrift and efficiency.
Under the guiding eye OF the
Budget and Efficiency Bureaus, fed
eral employees have saved supplies,
utilized equipment to the utmost,
and labored with as little lost mo-
ton as possible.
Sale of surplus government sup
plies brought in hundreds OF thou
sands of dollars. it was stated at the
Treasury. Much of these materials
had been rotting or ruSting away
from non-use.
Pay Phones Installed
Then the government gained quite
a profit through telephone coin
boxes in departmental buildings. BY
a working agreement with the tele-
phone company, Treasury collected
a portion of the receipts from coin
slots while Federal phones could not
be used for personal calls.
Many departments economical by
personal cuts. In many instances
high-salaried employees who re-
signed were replaced by employees at
much lower salaries.
Running the government costs
four billion dollars annually and be-
cause of this huge outlay no econo-
my, no matter how small, could be
overlooked.
Paper Clips worn Thin"
Rubber-bands were used over and
over until Postmaster General New
exclaimed he could get some Of his

The Agriculture DEPARTMENT even
used its pay envelopes over ags in.
Employees when paid returned the
envelopes, thus saving the container
and also the labor of tipping the
name of the receiver on each en-
velope<once more.
At the Commerce Department
paper clips were used until they

Finally, he pocketed his winnings
and started home. He drove out of his
way to pass the Bayne house on kel'
sey street.
The house, as he had expected, was
dark, but. out of a small dormer win
dow on the top floor, there came a
faint glow of light.
He concluded that "Eilda" was
keeping late hours!
With the suitcase out of the house
Holly felt that she could breathe
again. She carried up her mothers
tray, and coaXed her to eat some
breakfast, but Mrs. Bayne was queru-
lous and depressed.

month" she said. Take this thing

You can't go to Margaret's room.
I'm not going to have you on the
same floor with that wretched man.
I've seen the way he looks at you. I'm
not blind"
Holly's pale face flushed. She went
out, taking the tray with her. She
was hardly capable of consecutive
thought, but there was room in her
mind for a great thankfulness. The
suitcase and all it contained was gone.
That portion of her trouble, at least
was being Strengthened out. True, she
dreaded the moment when Mrs. Bayne
would go to the attic again and find
out what had happened. Not that
there would be scene. The very
facts precluded that. But there would
be shock.
She tried to think of some way to
avoid that shock, but without success.
The morning wore on. She worked
hard; but she was accustomed to that.
Now and then the relation of the new
situation to her marriage obtruded
