A surprise bequest In 1922 gave into
the hands of the Y. w c. A here the
beautiful estate of Mrs. Anna S. Kah-

teen-age girls here the privileges of one
of the best girls camps in the country

Soyiets Turn Efforts
To Extend Bakeries

MOSCOW, U. S. S. R.-A plan has
been drawn up for the construction of
bread bakeries in the Soviet Union,
which is concerned with the problem of
mechanizing the bakeries in all indus
trial centers, cities, workers settle
ments, on state farms and, to some ex-
tent on the collective farms. The plan
will be realized within two years. Also,
the government has decided to increase
considerably the manufacture of bakery
equipment. According to a decision of
the Central Committee, next year the
manufacture of mechanical equipment
will be increased 300 per cent over this
years output. The value of this pro-
duction will amount to 100000 ru-
bles, as against the present 100000
rubles, which will permit a so per cent
fulfllment of the mechanization pro-
gram. A capital investment Of 180,-
100000 rubleS will be made available
in the course of the next two years for
the realization of the entire plan.

Asks Lifting of Ban
Excluding Hapsburgs

VIENNA. Austria Prince Otto,
the student in Steenockerzeel, who is
pretender to the throne of Hungary,
has been named an honorary citizen
of several villages in the Tyrol, the
newspaper Tyroler Anzeiger said
The local council of the town of
Ampass, following others, has taken
this step, which to the sentimental
Tyolese has great significance. Many
of them are legitimist in sympathy
and look forward to the return of the
Hapsburgs.
I'VE are poor but we are not scoun-
drels," the decree of the Ampass
council reads, I'VE believe in justice,
and we appeal for the resembling of
the law excluding the Hapsburgs from
Austria"
Legitimist newspapers have COM
mented, approving this sentiment.

after long journey that he forgot to

he had placed in the hammock above

An hour after leaving the train he
suddenly recalled that all of his docu-

jumped into cab, frantically dashed
through the station and discovered that
his train already had left the station.
A polite official suggested that he go to

He did so, and upon paying 25 cents

I well remember Christmas Of 1917,
when the staff planned to have a huge
tree, hung with numerous small gifts
and announced through the press that
the Y. w C. A. would be at home to
all who were lonely. The secretaries in
charge asked me to assist them that
afternoon and it was delight to help
entertain the many who filled our
rooms, everyone receiving a gift and
delicious refreshments.
Leaves Estate to Y. w.
Several months later we were sur
prised to see IN the paper that woman
Of French descent, Madelaine GARNER,
had died, leaving her estate to our as
soCiation. The nurse who cared for
her came to see me and said her patient
had told her that on Christmas morning
she felt so lonely she decided to go to
the river and end her life. But she
read in the Post of the Y. w. G. A, in
viting all who were lonely to go to our
headquarters. then at Fourteenth and
@ streets where she went and stayed
all afternoon and had a happy time.
Then she said to the nurse, Even the
president of the association was there
on Christmas day helping to entertain
us, so 1 made up my mind that if those
women were willing to give up their
time to make us forget our loneliness,
I was going to leave what I had to
the Y w. c. A." That estate has
netted us S25, 1904, so the bread cast
upon the waters that Christmas day
came back to us many fold.

Special Rates Enable
Italians to Go Places

ROME, Italy.-Now it is the turn of
the Italians themselves to see some
thing of their country's glories. The
old tradition that. no Milanese would
be caught dead in Rome and that no
Venetian ever set foot in Genoa has
been shattered during the last Summer
by the institution of special railroad ex-
cursions at reduced prices
During August and September 418,-
900 Italians patroniZed these excur-
sions, travelling a total of Ill 900 miles
on Ais special trains While the origi-
nal idea was to amuse the people, rather
than to make any considerable profits
from the excursions, the railways now
report that the profit derived from oper-
alton of excursion trains amounted to
more than twice as much per mile as
that gained from running ordinary
trains.
1t is safe to say that four -flfths Of
those who rode these trains would never
have been able to forsake their tradi-
tional stamping grounds without the
concession of special rates.

another door, however, that was
also partly hidden by a large empty
box. He opened it cautiously and
went into the room.
He stepped on something soft on
the floor. Switching on his light,
he saw that it was a small pack
age with something white spilled
out of a broken end.
Pete picked it up and looked
closely at it. "Cocaine!" he ex-
claimed half aloud. $50 that's
your racket, Carlson. No wonder
you could afford to offer me eight
grand to lay off. The dope business
brings high profits!'
Looking around, he saw several
boxes containing limilar packages.
Holy hell" Pete unused. This guy
must supply an awful big markell"
Casting his light around the
room, his eye fell on a shoe stick
ing out from behind a box. He
wouldn't have noticed it only it was
sticking straight up!
Instantly, Pete became alert.
Surely there was a man behind
that box or else the shoe wouldn't
be sticking out in that position.
He switched off his light and
cautiously began to work his way
around 20 that he would be able
to see behind the box.
Having reached the position he
desired, he switched on his light,
his gun held steadily in his right
hand. The light showed him a
man lying in a sprawling position,
his eyes closed as If he we're asleep.
"A devil of a place to Sleep" Pete
muttered to himself, wondering
whether to try and awake the man
or let him alone.
Then it struck him that there
was something unnatural about the
man. Somehow, he didn't look like
he was breat ing. Cautiously he
moved closer. What he saw sent
a cold chill up and down his spine.

instructed.
Sure. Anything to please you,'
Carlson grinned. They left the
room, locking the door behind them.
WELL Pete said to himself,
you've SUI got yourself in one hell
of a mess"
After Pete had left SAlly's home
that afternoon, she went for a
walk in the park. The air had
cooled her temper anT anger Won
'derfully. She couldn't rid he mind
of what Pete had said about Carl
son. She had no idea that Carl
son was in anyway connected with
anything unlawful. He had given
her the impression that Pete was
deliberately trying to make trouble
for him. Now that she had heard
Pete's side of the story, she was a
trif1e confused. Pete wouldn't have
been sent on this job il there had
MT been something wrong. After
all, it was Pete's JOB to get to the
bottom Of the thing. She felt a
warm glow Of admiration for Pete
and the way he was determined to
carry out his orders, in spite Of
what she had said. Che knew she
had no business trying to butt in
on his work, even if Carlson had
asked her to.

His eyes had fallen on a pair Of
steps almost hidden by a large box.
He went cautiously over to them
and discovered that they led down
into a cellar.
Pete went down the steps, tread
Ing lightly lest he make a noise
that would arouse someone. At
the bottom, he stood silently for a
couple of seconds, listening. No
sound came to his ears. Not even
the sound from the orchestra.
He switched on his light and saw
that he was in a room similar to
the one he had just left. A few
boxes and empty barrels yer the
