want to walk the streets with her
babies, her husband said.

When Langlund reiterated that
they must move, LouX said his wife
told the constable "it will be over
my dead body"
If that's the way you feel about,
I'll call the wagon" Langlund said,
according to Loux.
When the transfer company
wagon arrived Langlund and the
second contable again confronted
the family, the second constable
putting his foot in the door and
reading a writ, LouX said.
We're coming in" Langlund said,
according to Loux.
Il told him to wait a minute, ,"
LouX said. He had a gun in his
pocket and started to draw it. The
gun was half out of his pocket and
he came in.

you to keep me out "
Calling police, Loux said officers

furniture was removed to the o. K.

Cathleen set out the next morning for
the Drew place at Tarrytown with high

a man with car to meet her at the

the car at once. 1t was the one in
which she had been driven away from
the shameful fight on Fourteenth street
Crestwood, the Drew country seat, sat
on high hill overlooking the Hudson.
1t was rambling old stone structure of
countless wings and gables. There was
an old-faShioned garden. Gravel paths
bordered with phlox and mignonette
and sweet sultan wound toward the
wooded section down by the river.
There was a comfortable feel to Crest
wood. 1t invited repose. Its chairs were
capacious and fitted to the back. It's
deep divans were treat to weary limbs.
Its plain walls presented the best there
was in art. Everywhere, in nook and
Granny, it was Shelved with books.
Cathleen was shown to her room.
From its window she caught clear
sweep of the river to the north. A homy
room of restful dignity. Spool bed and
spinnet table and chests of drawers.
Hooked rugs and chintz. She thought
OF the hard splendor of Journeys End.
Mr.. Drew received her in his study.

"It's-a little bit Of heaven"
"A little bit of heaven on earth, at
least. If you are ready We'll start right
in on the work. Guests will be arriving
later. I've asked to have our lunch
served here. 1t will save time. When
we've finished for the afternoon III
show you more of Crestwood."
At O'Clock Mr.. Drew thought they
had done enough for the day.
You'd better rest for an hour or so,
cut, I'm afraid. Tea is at S. My son
will be home then and some of his
young friends are coming"
Tom will be home at S! Tom will be
home at 5! 1t was roundelay that

Shortly after 4, she rose to dress. She
would wear the tub silk dress, of course.
1t was inconspicuous. Then with q
little thud, like stone dropped into
a pool, it occurred to her that she must
not go down to tea. Tea was for the
guests at Crestwood. She was not a
guest. She was an employe.
But Mr.. Drew had told her there
would be tea at 5. Certainly. He
would send it to her room. Or per-
haps he meant it would be served to
her in the study.
She dressed as carefully as If she
were to have tea with a king And
she was not going to have tea at all.

one government economist believes
there are not enough children to in
dictate that the United States popu-

o. E. Baker, of the agriculture de-

said that unless the birth rate rises or
immigration laws are liberalized, the
population in 30 years will become
stationary at less than ITO, 100000.
Rural sections, he said, have a sur
plus of youngsters above the number
needed for an even population, but
no more than required to balance the
city deficiency. He added that the
rural birth rate also is declining.

PLAN TO IMPROVE
LOCAL CEMETERY
Father Stag Says He Hopes to

Appeal for cooperation in beauti-

there, and Father Stag said he hopes
to make it one Of the beauty spots of
Bismarck. Some persons rate a city
upon the appearance of its cemeteries,
Father Stag said, and hence a we'll
kept burying ground will be a civic
aSa1t as well as a source of satisfac-
ti04 to persons whose dead are bur-
ae4Nthere and to other lot owners.

lneots since 1927 and the tombstones
J0ceted there are valued at 5000

lot owners will cooperate with the
cemetery authorities by paying the
1ee necessary to maintain the place

make the cemetery n big, green

trees and flowers. In order to insure
