''Marion!" I gasped. You don't mean you've told Carolyn anything about that box"
 She stopped her impromptu dance. and came to a halt before me, her eyes wide with astonish- ment
 Why not" she asked naively, Shes my 'roomie,' isn't she?"
 Be careful" something whisper ed inside me, and l promptly hedged. l know something Of the intense loyalty which sometimes ex- ists between "roomies" in girls boarding schools.

 'Yes, l had forgotten that" I said smoothly. of course, you tell her everything. But you see this vas something so very special. Didn't your grandmother give it to you when she was near death, and ask you to keep it's contents d socret?"
 T think she vas most anxious tha: Mother shouldn't know about 1t for some reason or other.' Maroin said with q qIckuess which told uo she already had argued this question with herself. And you know l sayc it to you, because I was so fooish-and mean about my stepfarher then"
 But you did cntrust it to me" I said slowly and 1 believe it will Dc safer in my keeping than if I turn 1t over to you 10 take back 10 school"
 Oh. I don't want to do that" she cried. T just wanted to show Carolyn that secret drawer"
 T think that could be arranged" :" l smiled, relieved that she did not want 10 take the box away.
 "Oh. You darling" Marion car oled hugging me, and now for the other Do you know if Nuns and Dad and I stay here for dinner to- night, you'll have sixteen at the table and Mrs. Brixton will have only cleven!"
 Poor Mrs. Brixton." I gibed, to hide my dismay at what I knew she was going to ask me.

 That isn't mine to say, Marion" I said, trying to keep my voice steady, for the idea Of Christmas dinner without Lillian was unnerv- ing.

Ccrcbro- Spinal Fever

There is type of meningitis called cererro-s spinal fever, or cpl demic corebro-splnal meningitis.
 Meningitis is a seasonal disease, being much more prevalent in the colder months than in the summer. It appears 10 be definitely asso- ciated tith other diseases of the nose and the throat, which of course are most prevalent in winter.
 CroWding, such as occurs Tn camps, prisons, mining districts and the like, distinctly favors the spread Of the disease. Children and young adults are it's most common ,ictims.
 Chronic fatigue due to over-eXer- ton, malnut ition, poverty and squalor, predispose the individual 70 the development Of this type of 1,ninritis.
 The germ of meningitis, the me lingo coccus. enters the body trough the Innings Of the nose and throat I: may gain entrance to the coverings of the brain and spinal cord by passing directly through the skull, or by first entering the blood stream and being thereby carried 10 the nervous system.
 The disease is spread from the sick to the well through intimate contact. or through so-called ear riers." 'Carriers' are individuals free of tho disease but who none the less harbor the germ Of mcnin- gifts lu the nose and throat.
 Meningitis tends to be an epi- demic disease. When one case ap- pears, it is almost - certain to be followed by number of others
 Every infection of the nose and throat. however, slight, should be watched.
 Epidemic cerebro-spinal menin- gitis now can be successfully treat ed with a specific antitoxin. AS in the case Of all antitoxins, the earlier in the stage of the disease it is ad- ministered, the more effective it is.

Talks pGGAQ d. parents
Undesirable Friends
By Alice Judsou Pcalc

lpS -NllNN U JhHScll hl
 Parents generally feel free to in tcrferc in their chldren's friend ships.
 They know that by the time child is 10 or older his friends in- fluence his conduct far more than do his parents and teachers,
 They feel therefore that they must do everything possible 10 eliminate such associations as seem likely to exercise an un- wholesome influence.
 They forget that it is virtually impossible to do this except through the use of such repressive measures as must do more harm than good.
 It is strange boy or girl whose taste in friends does not at some time conflict sharply with that of his parents.
 The friends chosen on the basis of newly emerging adole5cent in- terests may, appear to parents to possess not one saving grace of personality. ...
 They cannot understand why it ls that their hitherto sensible 13- year-old daughter has tsuddenly be- come fascinated by the unpleasant ly loudsand sophisticated girl next door. They forget that this girl may well represent to their daughter certain wholly natural interests which their, own training has per- haps ignored. rga4,
 To the parent Whoqis distressed over the yagaries, of his children g choice of friends it should be com- forting to reflect that there is noth- ing final .a5oit friendships. They come'Tand. sp, leaving be- hind them sery uttleperntanent cf- No. singlea asAociation has the powct tG3iAfltnt real harm so long as the training of early childhood has been sound and the relation ship between parents and children continues to be one of understand l ing and mutual trust.

 Carolyn BriAton
 Marlou's request for her grand mothers lock box with her for tune" in it, was like the ringing Of 0 warning bell deep in my conscious ness. What lay behind her appar- eIlly simple request, ] could not de- termine But there were fantastic even slnIster-possbil far in the background which I could not afford to overlook. l must be wary. for above everything I must not arouse The young girls antagonism.
 I'm sorry dear l sad, but l can't get 1t for you. It isn't here. it's down in the safety deposit vault of the bank. and Of course today is holiday even if you thought it wise io take 1T out"
 But don't understand" she said, tho slightest suspicion of d flown upon her winsome face. 1T thought you Were keeping that in your own room.'
 The Burglary
 T d.l Ntop l, there" sad, "unul NC lad the attempted rob- hery at inc farmhouse"
 'Oh, yos. Nuns told Inc burglars gol into the hoUsr, but shc couldn't imagine what they were after as they took nothing."
 That's because she knows noth- iHs or the possibly valuable secret Hour grandmother box holds" l replied. T don't want 70 alarm you. but your room vas tho only one dis turbed that night f the box had been there instead ot Tn tho bottom ot my trunk where l put t when you entrusted lt 10 me, 1 am afraid !ou never would have sgea 1t again.
 Oh" she sad ruefully Then her eyes sparkled with excitement.
 Was that the reason you tele- graphed me to let you show the box to sOmeone?'
 Yes but I have had no oppor- tlLtS tHlS vacation TOT conFerSa- tion with you long enough to tell you about it,
 She blushed furiously.
 Il have been pretty busy" she acknowledged then swept on into hurried questioning.
 Who was the someone and was that the reason you put the box in the bank"
 The someone was my father" I told her. and he naturally ad- vised carrying the box 10 the bank after We had satisfied ourselves it had not heen disturbed. He said that the burglars had been fright cned of once, but that they might come again"
 oh, boy:" Marion spun around on her toes and clapped her hands gleofuIly. Its all just like movie. Won't Carol be popped up when she hears Of this? You can get the box out Of the bank tomorrow, cant you, long enough so she can sec it and know Tin not dreaming"

Stumpy. the thrce-legged young Muskrat, was just like most other people wishing that he had some thing he hadn't got but someone else had. What he wished he had was a white coat. Jumper the Hare, who did have d white coat, had told tEat 1t was nothing but envy and that he was better off without a white coat. You sec Jumper, from the wisdom ot experience. knew that if q white coat was a good thing for a young Muskrat or any other Musera'. OId Mother Nature would ha}, seen 10 1t that 1t was supplied.
 But Stlrlpy couldn't See this and he sat on his tavoritc tussock by the open water Of the Laughing Brook and thought how fine it would be to be dressed all in white and be able to go about on the snow and practically disappear just by sitting perfectly still.
 Tt would be fun?" said Sunny.
 What would be fun?" inquired Jerry Muskrat, who happened along just in time to overhear that re- mark.
 Why. it would be fun to have q white coat and Just sit still when an enemy came along and thought you were lump Of snow" replied Stumpy q don't see why old Moth CT Nature didn't give everybody white coats for winter
 "Youu find as you grow older that there are many things Old Mother Nature does or does not do the reason for which you cannot understand" said Jerry. But" he added, you may be sure of one thing, and this is that she makes no mistakes. For whatever she does there is reason"
 Just the same I think We would be better off if we had white coats like Shadow the Weasel and Jump CT the Hare" grumbled Stumpy. Where do we Muskrats spend most of our time, in the water or on land ?" asked Jerry rather sharply.
 Stumpy hesitated for minute. He wanted to think that over. Well" said he slowly, "I suppose we spend more time in the water than on land excepting when we are in our houses This time of year we spend more time in the house than anywhere else"
 And this time of year is the only time of year when white coat N ould be of the least use 10 any one" replied Jerry. "A white coat would be of no use in the house. and [ for one don't want one when I am sy, immng. When the Black have come we can swim about where they are without much aan1ar nf being seen, but how

BATTLEFIELD COVERS MOST

Disputed Territory of Polit- ical Campaign Takes in Over Half of
 Population

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. B. Associated Press-The polite al campaign of 1880 has paused with the final prediction alignment still tangled. The result is warmly dis puted. The voters will write their answers tomorrow, electing full National House of Representatives one-third of the Senate, Governors in thirty-two States and hundreds of lesser officials.
 Both the Democrats and Republi- cans have made the Hoover Ad- ministration the issue Nationally, especially with reference to the bus mess decline, the tariff, farm relief and Prohibition. Added to these local complications have been added to the task in many states.
 Both sides see a recession of the Republican tide which arose in 1928, scaling down Republican ma jorities in Congress and, perhaps, accompanying a turn toward the Democrats in minor offices. The Democratic managers predict ma jority in the House of Representa- tives and a marked reduction of the Republican majority in the Senate and the possibility of it's complete disappearance.
 The Republicans claim that an eleventh hour swing to their side insures them sure control of both houses Of Congress. Similarly, they claim more than half of the States which will elect Governors.
 Both parties are claiming the victory in disputed territory, in which lives more than half of the country's population. This dis puted territory includes, among oth- CTS, the States of New York, Penn sylvania, Massachusetts, Ohio and several that are smaller.
 Congressional districts that are listed as really doubtful in other States than those mentioned are less than one hundred among the 435 members of the House. The major Democratic assaults for ad- ditional members of the House have been in Ohio Illinois, Indiana, Ken lucky, West Virginia and Missouri. Democratic gains in Virginia and North Carolina are expected.

Democratic Chairman Says He Has Not Sold Share

WASHINGTON, D. o., Nov. B. The Republican campaign poster asking who caused the stock mar ket crash aroused Chairman John J. Raskob of the Democratic Ma tional Committee to charge by in- ference that he is being libeled
 The poster also asked: Did Raskob sell short?"
 Commenting on this question Raskob said the poster inferred that he deliberately influenced the depression market He continued:
 Not only did I not sell short i1 the recent collapse but never at any time since the advent of the present Administration, embracing the whole of the Hoover Panic period since the crash a year ago and before that, since Hoover's in- auguration, either directly or in- directly, did I sell short a single share of stock or any commodity.
 T am moved to issue a warn ing that this is libelous utterance by any agency that publishes it because the charge transcends the limitations of politics and is di- rect assault on my business integ- rity ard intelligence"
