seriously. Golly it's only a camel"
They were approaching the Shade home. AS
they came up the walk they saw Dave sitting
on the porch, but soon as he saw who his
sisters companion was, he rose hastily and
went into the house.
Look at that" exclaimed Johnny "He just
hasn't any use for me now! Isn't it the limit?"
Betty bit her lip in vexation. I'm awfully
sorry, Johnny" she said. cit makes me feel
terrible when he acts like that. And another
thing that makes me furious is that he'll never
play with me. He says it hurts his game to
play with a girl. and he absolutely refuses to
do it. Isn't that a nice way for brother
to act?"
They seated themselves on the porch of the
Shade home and silently considered the prob
lem. Finally Johnny spoke
What Dave needs" he said sadly, sis just
to be beaten so badly and so completely that
he'll look like a monkey. 1t would do him good
just to see how it feels. But there's nobody in
this town who can do it,
WELL" said Betty hopefully, Eve are going
up to Lake Cameron next week for a vacation.
and maybe there will be somebody there who
can beat him"
But Dave told me today that he wasn't
going to go with you" replied Johnny. HE
said he'd rather stay here and play lot of
tennis"
well, that's news to me-" exclaimed Betty.
Mother and Dad expect him to go, know.
But if he wants to stay, guess he'll stay"
After another long silence, during which their
faces remained grave, Betty turned to Johnny
with an air of desperation.
Johnny, we've simply got to do something
about Dave" she said. Were the best friends
he has, and if we don't help him, nobody else
will Why, If he doesn't learn to be better
sport, it's liable to ruin his whole life. Can't
you boys at the club do anything about it?"
Johnny considered the matter for a moment
He was president of the North Side Tennis Club
and had a great deal of influence with the
other members.
We'll, Betty" he answered reluctantly
There's one thing can do, but I certainly
hate to. I can tell the boys about the way
Dave acted today, and we could suspend him
from membership That means that none OF
us would play with him. But If I do that, you
know what it means. It means I lose my best
friend"
II know it." said Betty sadly But Johnny,
believe that might help him. It's big sac
riflce for you to make, but-oh, 1 wish you'd
DO it,"
IF you say So Betty" said Johnny with
grim smile, that's all the urging need. We
are having a business meeting tonight. Ill
round up some of the boys now and fix it up.
When Dave comes back from the meeting to-
night. he'll be in disgrace with U.S."
Johnny left few minutes later, and Betty
walked slowly into the house. There she found

 Clerk

 The mayor reiterated his state ment thet Clerk Johnson had been reprimanded three years ago when the condition of his books first came to light, and insisted that the re- tiring clerk had deceived him in tht. spring by telling him the condition had been righted.
 The engineer took exception to Johnson's statement concerning the assistance he has been given. regard ing this to be reflection on other members of the stan.
 Mayor Paonessa refrained from lengthy comment on the resignation. having only the following to say:

FOUR CROAT BANDITS ARE PUBLICLY HANGED One Springs Trap Himself When His ExecutiOner
 Falters

Zagreb. Croatia, Feb. 20 R-Four bandits were hanged publicly today. one of them placing the rope around his neck and springing the trap himself when the executioner fal- tered.
 Executions are almost unprece- dented in Jugoslavia despite the fact that the criminal code provides for the death penalty. The last execu- ton in Croatia took place 13 years ago. Today's executions were at the instance of General Zivkovitch. who recently became premier in the sweeping government changes made by King Alexander.
 The four self-confessed murderer who went to the gallows were Kru- popich. Urbanacz. Mrbancz and Prtich. Each execution lasted 12 minutes. the indictments and war. rants being read by the president of the Zagreb senate who was pres- ent in . black frock coat and a high silk hat.
 All But One Die Bravely
 All but one Of the doomed men went to death stoically. The fourth began singing hymns and making grimaces at his companions in death. Later he became violent and had to be brought to the gallows forcibly.
 Executioner Hart and his assista nj were completely unnerved by the ordeal of hanging the three other murderers. They failed thrice in an attempt to adjust the moose around Mrbancz's neck whereupon the lat ter seized the rope and brushed the executioner aside. saying: Get ou, of here. your hands and brain art frozen. Let me complete the jot myself"
 Then he placed the rope around his neck calmly and kicked the death trap himself.
