London, June 14 R.-Women have invaded the last stronghold ot the misogyn,st male-the London club. The stubbornest e-hards of several famous London clubs have at last reconollad them selves 10 the presence of women secretaries in the heart of their anti-temlnlne fortresses
 One of the pioneers in the latest feminine offensive was Miss Ne- nard. who has been secretary of the Army and Navy club for one year.
 The Devonshlre club and the Ar thurs club are other famous clubs which now have women secreta- ries The secretary Of the Deyon- shire, Mrs. Perry. mingled romance with business and became the wife of 3 member of the club com mlttee.

Madge Finds Marion's Secret Pro- x1des Material for Queer Conjectures
By Adele Garrison

Madge Finds Marton's Secret Pro- Stdes Material for Queer Conjectures
 l imagine that my emotions while slipping down the hall from Ma rlon's room to my own were much like those of novice in burglary upon his first job. Under one arm carried the pasteboard carton which Marion had tied SO securely and in which she had packed her dead Erandmcther's old sandalwood box with its hidden com partment the secret of which was known only to the young girl. I had promised that l would keep it for her while she was absent at school, but though had realized that If l rejected Ma rion's plea. she ID all proba bllity would find some less loyal confidan mt yet l would have been woefully en- harra ssed If I had encountered Lil- lian while transferring the box from her daughters room 10 mine.
 I gained my own room safely. however, and lost no time in putting the box away in the bottom Of the small chest in winch l keep my own treasures and the key of which carry with me. Then with the odd feeling that ] just had finished a gruelins race, I sat down and let my fancy play around the envelopes, which I had seen in the secret com partment and which Marion's S grandmother had said contained the girls fortune" when she should be eighteen.
 The envelopes had been n my hands but moment. but I had noticed that two Of them were much heavier than the third and evidently contained flat packages protected by the stiff corrugated paper us,d to pack photographs. A fantastic theory concerning the possible con- tents of those heavy envelopes cir cled tantalizingly around my mind. but I routed its absurdity with ln- voluntary laughter.
 Not so easily however could I banish the allurins possibility that there might be some basis for the aged woman's solemn belief. How much it would mean to Lillian fl she could know that the child she so idolized would be assured Of Sven modest competence, knew my friend would never use penny

 The fluctuation of paper mon ey, together with the fact that buried silver runs a chance of be- ing stolen gave rise to this custom of putting savlngs into some valu~ able thing that can be exchanged
 Now it is hearthreaking to go miles and see not a single decora- tlon. One hy one they have gone for food for the family For Chinese love their children with tremendous devotion
