For a deep. breathless moment she

trembling on her lips.

W. j., taking two steps forward. He

THE STORY so FAR

W. J. Stuart takes over the management
of the Stuart department store at the death
of his father. and takes his Job seriously.
He holds weekly efficiency meetings with
all the employees in attendance. Margery
Bonner OF the advertising staff is about the
only one in the force who has not tired OF
his rigid efficiency rules but he notes that
she appears to be laughing at him and he
decides that she must be put in her place.
w j. carefully reads each ad to which
Margery has affixed her o X. but fails to
find any errors which are not due to faulty
printers corrections. Thompson, the ad-
vertising manager, offers Margery 4 new
position with another firm.
IT'S TERRIBLY NICE OF you, Mr.
Thompson, she said after long
= pause. The present contingency was
one she could never have foreseen. She
could not reconcile it with her stubborn
determination to be champion of a GER

The sight of another generating

was more, w. j. felt, than he could

he got to the office. He must know

Mediterranean Fly in Texas

The quarantine placed on Florida by the federal
government in its efforts to stamp out the Medtier-
ranean fruit fly has seemed 50 stringent as to be al
most more than the growers Of that muchly distressed
state could bear-yet the regulations have been in
sufficient to prevent spread Of the pest.
Several weeks ago the fly was found in a car Of
oranges which had been shipped from Florida to New
Orleans. The fruit was destroyed and the car tumi-
gated and Louisiana Immediately declared q drastic
quarantine against Florida products.
Now larvae OF the Mediterranean fruit fly have
been discovered In grapefruit shipped from Florida to
Dallas. This brings the dread pest within the Dor
ders Of the home state ard makes It g direct menace
TO the citrus industry Of Texas.
George b. Terrell. state commissioner OF agricul-
ture. has ordered eli field men Of the department INTO
the larger cities OF Texas to seek for the fly until IL
has been definitely determined that no specimens have
escaped from the Florida fruit already sold in this
state.
The inspection which unearthed the infestation at
Dallas had its ~inseption In Brownsville. Two boxes
Of Florida fruit we're found on sale in the city market
here. As soon as it was discovered it was reported 70
Commissioner Terrell by wire and he that day dis
patched inspectors to every locality in Texas where
Florida citrus was known to be stored
In the state where the fly first was discovered, the
quarantine regulations have proved insufficient 70
stop the spread Of the pest. At first the known IN
tested area covered Only t"O 80 Gin -
third. Now the infested area extends 200 miles
through the heart Of the agricultural section In q strip
70 mlies wide. The spread has been brought about
largely through shipments OF fruit being made from
the infested section Of the state to the u~ninfested sec
ton, a correspondent writes.
In the face OF these facts il now appears that the
United States department Of agriculture erred IN not
declaring an absolute embargo against Florida ana
ordering all citrus and host fruits and vegetables de-
stroyed. This would have entailed an enormous loss,
but the government could well have paid for the pro-
duce thus destroyed in order to prevent endangering
the fruit and vegetable growing industry all over the
country.
1t Is too late for this now. but surely the continual
sp.sad OF the fly viii indicate to federal authorities
that there Is need for . drastic Tightening Of the reg
ulaIons IN some manner.
