Madge Succeeds in Soothing Katie Injured Feelings, But Complica- tions Threaten When Mother
 Graham Appears on the scene

katie's plaintive wall that I put Mrs. Ticer up above her and told dot vomans secrets which kept hidden from my little maid, turned the course Of my indignation away from her 10 my noighbor. l had warned Mrs. Ticer 70 say nOth- ing to Katie concerning her lOdger Hallam, who. We suspected. was one of the midnight marauders at the farmhouse I had cautioned her also to keep silence for the present concerning the evidences of illegal entry which We had found at The larches. That my neighbor ordi- narly was almost as garrulOus as Katie I knew. But I also knew her fidelity to a promise. and she had gwen mo her word 10 keep si- lence upon the points I had stressed. Yet Katie's excited protest must mean-With sudden determination I put question that ordinarily l would not have asked, for it always has been my purpose to keep as far away as possible from the frequent fAuds Of my temperamental little maid and my somewhat 'tetchy' neighbor.
 What do you mean 9" asked sternly. What secrets does Mrs. Ticer know that you think should have been told 10 you Q"
 Purposely l made my voice heavy with an irony which I hoped Katie's keen perceptions would catch. But, though I saw her eyes flash with comprehension Of my meaning, she was not all modified.
 Secrets enuff." she said shrew- ishly. "Lookit, Misss Graham, who got to clean and cook in dees house 'unce, you tell me dot?'
 Katie Explains
 "You, Of course. Katie" I an swered, keeping my voice light and nonchalant with an effort. My an ger at her was fast returning. and if it had not been for my memories of her long and faithful service and my recognition of the domestic en- ergencies confronting me, l am afraid I should have dismissed her without waiting for another word of impertinence from her.
 Well, den" her voice rose stri- dently. Wy you tell me yunce dot you haf lots company dees Christmas time? Parties for Marion und boys und girls dot stay by dose Brixtons. Und " 1 haf 10 wait to hear from dot Ticer vomans dot dose Brixtons goin' coon live by Lar ches?"
 There was the tautness Of temper and wounded pride in her voice and words, but the tension of my own nerves suddenly relaxed and my faith In Mrs. Ticer's loyalty and dis cretion was as quickly restored. She had kept the promise of silence

which I had imposed upon her. and had betrayed no hint Of the man Hallen or of our discovery at The Larches. But she had talked freely of our Christmas plans, and I shrewdly suspected had preened herself bit upon Katie's ignorance Of them. My good neighbor was but human. and such an opportunity Of triumphing over her ancient enemy was too precious to forego. With q sudden movement grippcd katie's shoulders with my l hands and looked down at her laughing
 Complications Threaten
 How old are you Katie, my child "' l asked. Not over six, I'll wager. When have had any chance 10 talk over Christmas plans with you3 The first chance I get after Mrs Pickett leaves I'm going to sit down and go over the Christ mas plans with you thoroughly. as I do every year. I have not done that with Mrs. Ticcr at all as you ought 10 know. Of course. I had to tell her that the BriXtons wished to rent The Larches because she is the care talIer Of the place, and l said 10 her that We expected 10 be quite gay this Christmas with the young peo- pie entertained by the BriXtons. I ought not to be explaining this to you, Katie. for you have displeased me very much, both by your treat ment Of Mrs Ticcr and your foolish words just now. But I am humor- ing you. as would a child too little to know how naughty it has been"
 My little maids eyes, roundcr than ever. were staring at me, filled with the joy Of q child at some un- expected good fortune.

 Island so delicious to the taste. so repulsive in appearance when they puff up into "bottles" in an attempt at protection for themselves. Katie's mimicry of Mrs. Ticer and her translation Of our neighbours rather prim vocabulary into her own atrocious idioms added 10 my struggle, But all desire to laugh suddenly vanished when the door to the dining room was thrown open and my mother-in-law dignifed but plainly irate, appeared in the door way, while behind her was Mrs. Ticer, patently reluctant to share in the disciplinary scene which my mother-in-law's truculent manner indicated.

Immigrants Send Back Parts of Weekly Pay Cheeks
 to Destitute Relatives

New York, Nov. 15.-Charity on the installment plan is a new and very interesting 100 per cent Ameri- can development.
 Hundreds of immigrant working folk file through a little office in this city paying anything from one dime to s100 weekly on charity gifts to destitute Russian relatives. The office is that of the Ort Cam paign for Industrial Reconstruction of Eastern Europe, which collects the installment money and ships the charity gifts.
 These gifts seem prosaic enough. They are machines Sewing ma chimes, book binding machines ItypeHriters. looms, button holins machines, shoe soling machines. watchmaker's tools, embroidery ma chimes, dentists drills, adding ma chimes. But in Russia. the posses sion of a machine means economi" salvation. It is the equivalent of thriving business in this country.
 Once Shop Keepers
 For most of the recipients were former small shop keepers. When the Soiet government taxed pri- vate shops off the Broadways and Main streets of Russia. they were thrown out of work. Now, given machines, they take their place as industrial workers. are given so- cial status, cheaper rent and food, free medical care and a chance at Ia vacation in the workers homes.
 Each machine that is ordered pany represents a story in human sacrifice and often the saga Of strong family obligations that still bind across several countries and an ocean.
 A button-hole maker came in to wage. Her face was wreathed ill smiles. She had just heard from kharkov where she sent a hos ery knitting machine to her little niece. The niece wrote:
 Tt is wonderful to have work. W ' II bI cal nus pp Oubito N2-rJ ia month soon. Mother is going to .get some shoes. And Dasha can have coat. We had meat for supper last night. Mother is fun my, We used to catch her crying because We did not have enough to eat Now she often weeps at your good-heart tedness."
 D, Found New Riches
 AS the button-hole maker went smilingly back to her work in T loft of the needle-trades district. q taxi-cab driver ordered a rib ping machine for his cousins. It was a $500 machine.
 I'm rich compared 10 the ol1 days" the taxi driver bragged. T earn s45 a week. My wife thinks we should give those girls d chance to work. Their father used to be rich trader. He helped mo to come to America. Now they have nothing. Why should not help them?
 A bent, little old cigar-mal;er came in. On his tiny wage Of s2O a week he is sending sew ing machine to his old sister and brother. They used to have a re- tail shop. They nearly starved when the revolution came. Now they can at least have soup, black bread and meat once a week.

 In the furore created by the re- cent report on American college athletics Of the Carnegie Founda- ton for the Advancement of Teach ing, most of the attention has been paid to those portions Of the report having to do with the recruiting and Subdizing of athletes and conner cialism that has rendered college sports a problem.
 Equally significant, if not more significant. are those sections of the report which deal with the effects Of athletic participation on the bodies of those who take part. In 1928, Dr. L. l.

GROWTH OF CONSCIENCE

By Alice Judson Pealc
 Conscience, that inner guide which directs the individual 10 conduc, which, generally speaking. keeps Linn comfortable. happy, and ir harmony with his fellows. has sim. pie beginnings in early childhood.
 It depends for it's quality largely upon the guidance received during these early years.
 The child's conscience developa from. happenings which bring either approval or disapproval at home. from rules to which obedience is eX- pected and eXacted. and from the example which day by day his elders set before him.
 We are the keepers Of our chil- dren'S conscicnces. II is up to us 10 see that the values they acquire will be trustworthy guides in the com- ploXitics of adult life
 Since from our approval, given or withheld. children derive their mo- tions Of right and wrong. We must ho sure that We give our approval only to nttitudcs and actions which are really worthwhile and which will develop in them habits that make for happiness.
 We will exact obedience only to rules which are necessary for hcalt h development and sound social ad- iustment. There will be no obcying for obcdicncc' sake but for the sake rather of values which the child has learned to accept voluntarily because of his faith in us.
 We will endcavor 10 be living eX- amplcS of the benefits which come from living with a wholesome con. science, and our children will learr through unconscious imitation a. much of right and wrong as they aC- acquire through conscious reaching
