shippers.
Gov. Arthur J. Weaver Of Nebraska
and j. G. Nichols, Kansas City, presi-
dent and vice president, respectively, Of
the Missouri River Navigation Associa-
ton, will direct the presentation Of the
river boosters argument for the deep
channel.
The Missouri Valley representatives
will be supported In their plea by ship
pers and ports Of the Mississippi, who
would benefit immensely through ex-
tension Of the inland waterways sys-
tenn with the standard channel already
in use on the Mississippi and Ohio.
An extensive argument for the deep
channel as an economic factor. OF i'm
portance to the entire Middle West was
prepared by Walter Parker Of New Or
leans, formerly Assistant Secretary Of
Commerce for Inland Waterways.
Construction of the Panama Canal,
he pointed out, has nullifled the eco
nomic advantage given the Middle West
by its geographical location and thus
disturbed progress built upon that
factor.
A 9-foot channel. he said, is neces-
sary to economy. Just as the railroads
have discarded the narrow gauge track,
he declared, so must river trafflc rid
itself Of varying depths IN river chan
nels.

from the GaStonia police force with
charges of assault against him for

Well now last week here in Boston
on Patriots day April 10th, they went
through this whole thing. 1t was a big

it was big Holiday when the Braves

he got lost, there was a traffic light
against him SO he started off another
way, and the crowds along the way
never did get peek at him any more
He was supposed to have an escort
But none Of them had ever made the
route before, they were picked more
for historical than geographical knowl-
edge. Paul did little better; he made
the trip but his old barrelled headed
Army Horse run away, and just de-
lighted on running into where there
was the most people located. This old
jug head had never heard bands play
ing and people hollering before. Some
cops finally caught this horse, but Paul
hadent had any time to yell the British
are coming. He finally changed horses
with an escort, and I think finally
reached Concord in a motor car. So
l guess II the war had been held this
time, we would have lost 1t, so I doubt
very much II our present generation
is an improvement over the old Fore
fathers.

is the other thing, you know, the pos
sibility that, If he made clean breast
of it. she might forgive him and agree
to start fresh with him and all that sort
of tosh, you know. Perhaps, to make it
quite clear, I ought to tell you that it
was cards. This fellow had learned to
do card tricks. and at last the moment
came when he was having rotten luck
and he needed particularly to win"

not perfectly steady, II really mustn't

we met"
You knew it?" he said, and his eyes
opened In hope. why, then, you
can't"
no" she said. I'm sorry, but 1t
! doesn't mean what you think. / have
been using you for my own purpose,
which was revenge"
Hers was not an easy story to tell to
a man who had just made her sin
cere declaration of affection-that she
was In love with another man and using
this one only as a terrible example to
her father of how much worse she
might do. But she stumbled through 1t.
Il see," said Axley. 1T was just be-
cause / was so impossible that l was so
useful to you"
There was long silence. She felt
terribly guilty She longed to do some
thing to atone. but any kindly words
sounded so patronizing
And that moment Mr. Drake, a friend
of her father, approached them and
asked If they wouldn't like to make up a
rubber of bridge The afternoon before
Corinna had played a rubber with some
Of Mr.. brakes friends. and. as Mr.
brakes partner, she had not enjoyed
the experience. After each hand he
pointed out mildly, but at great length,
where game might have been made
If Corinna had bid right. Bidding right
meant bidding according to the require

"Oh, yes" she said Lord Axley and
1 would like nothing better" And as
they walked toward the saloon she muir
INJURED to Axley, And should like to
play with you" Her confidence in him
was not misplaced. They cut in the
following order: Mr.. Drake a queen, her
father a four, she three, and Lord
Axley the only card that would have
made him her partner, two.
There could be no denying that
Corinna enjoyed the game. 1t is al
ways pleasant to win, but 1t is even
pleasanter when you feel a moral pur-
pose is being served by your success, and
also when you find your opponents
quarrel ungracefully. Mr.. Daner was
not so meek under correction as she had
been. When he was asked, why in
thunder did you double, my dear
Daner?" he would answer: Because
did not suppose you would be bidding
two with nothing but five to king"
Mr.. Drake would dismiss this with a
wave and say: Its a psychological
game, Daner. play my lucky streaks."
But he did not seem to be having a
lucky streak that evening; his illnesses
all went wrong, whereas Lord Alleys
always went right.
AS they ended the last rubber Mr..
Drake spoke words that had never be-
fore fallen from his lips. II believe
don't bid right" he said. II believe I
shall take some lessons when go
home" He had lost over $400 at mod
crate stakes. Between Corinna and her
father financial debts had not much
meaning.
CoRINNA and Axley parted there
with a very casual goodnight.
When about noon the next day Mr..
Daner, having been busy with his pack
ing and letter writing, emerged on deck,
he looked vainly for a tall figure,
slumped, as was customary in the
| chair beside his daughter. Corinna
was reading.
Where Is our young friend, the earl?"
said her father at last
Corinna looked up sweetly and blinked
her eyes. Lord Axley," she said. "Oh
he got off at Cherbourg"
What" cried her father He was not
| wholly able to conceal that this news
was disappointment, almost a shock
and Corinna had every excuse for ask

Yes, I did" said Mr. Daner firmly
Il liked him very much. Didn't you?'
you make me very happy. father,
she murmured. 1--WE haven't always
agreed about my friends. I'm so glad
that this time we do" Her voice sank
Il like him, too," she almost whispered
WELL 1t doesn't seem to matter much
whether we do or not" replied Mr.
Daner; IF he's got off at Paris we may
never see him again.
Corinna smiled. "Oh, think we'll see

confidence. Well be in Paris before SC

He wanted to see her of course, father.
