pleasantly. I'm sitting pretty" he
said. What about you?"
Ann could lie. but not over the
telephone or rapidly. She had to
take her time about it,

asked. "A coupla other fellows and

Why when Lefty could play with
you, she wants to play with Phil"
She had spoken her thoughts
aloud, but not completely. What
she meant was that Lefty King had
appealed to her as a person who
would prefer two speed boats, one
houseboat, one Chinese cook, and
two automobiles to one automobile
in falling health.
Kenneth Smith, young, masculine,
did not read her meaning clean
"All that know is that she fell for
him and fell hard. He's good look
ing. I guess, if you like that kind OF
looks, and, Of course, I'm as home
ly as a hens foot.
Besides, she's young-she'S aW-
fully young, even for her age, and
she goes in strong for all this hooey
about love and tripe like that

remember what he had looked like
in the light and had an impress
sion, only of cleanliness and blond
youthfulness. And you are young,

Young, too" he said, but not
too young" and paused to be
pleased with his epigram.
I'm not so young at that" he
resumed. I'll be % next November.
That's only five years younger than
you, and what's few years be-
tween friends?"
Lefty had said, 'Phil's told me a
lot about YOU" 1t seemed odd to
think of these strange people, Mr..
Smith, and Lefty King, and Phil,
discussing her and her age. What,
exactly, might "a lot" mean?
Say" he said, you aren't sore
at me, are you, for pulling that
about your age? When a girl is as
pretty as you are she's-shes kind
of ageless. You know what I mean?

a There was the reason she was
not suffering-not heartbroken. Phil
had not been sporting-he had lied
to her.
He was not a square shooter. He
was-rotten. If she could remenl-
ber that-not sporting, not a square
shooter, rotten-perhaps she could
forestall the heartache entirely.

Gee! But you are great. You

How restful this boy, this funny,
impossible boy, was How easily
pleased. How uncritical.
There was a poem she had read.
She had liked it we'll enough to copy
it; she had had Mary Frances in
mind, though it did not entirely
suit Mary-Frances, and it did suit
this boy.
How had it gone? "Innocently
wicked - innocently wise. Inno-
Gently impudent-innocent gay"
That was what this Kenneth
was, now that he was over being
cross.
He was gay. Gay. The rest of
the poem, after that? Something
about youth being an alien race,
speaking an alien tongue, and then
the lines for Mary Frances. These
are the darlings of my heart; These
are the young"
He had come to another short
silence, and she spoke impulsively,
You are so young" she said.

ears are seldom tuned to tender

She let him run along with that.

nerhassett's island could not be regarded as
his act, even granting that he had advised it,
for, said they advising war is one thing but
levying it is quite another If this Interpretation
was correct, then no overt act of levying war,
either within the Jurisdiction Of the court or
stated in the indictment, had been or could be
shown against Burr.
Next Chief Justice Marshall handed down an
opinion accepting virtually the contention of
Burrs attrneys and when the prosecution was
unable to produce two witnesses who had actual
ly seen Burr procure the assembage on the is
land, it allowed the case to go to the jury
Shortly thereafter the following verdict was
returned: "We of the jury say that Aaron Burr
is not proved to be guilty under this indictment
by any evidence submitted to US. We therefore
find him not guilty" At the order of the chief
justice this Scotch verdict was entered on the
records of the court as a simple mot guilty"
Acquitted Burr became exile and an out
cast The man who came within one vote of be
ing President OF the United States wandered
about Europe for four years, borrowing small
amounts, attempting dubious promotions, urg-
ing the French to seize Louisiana in 1910, and
finally returning to his own land with a false
wig and whiskers. Shortly after his arrival he
encountered the breaking of the one tie that
held him to the earth when his beloved Theo-
dosia, who had stood by him when the whole
world seemed to have turned against him took
ship from the South to meet him in New York
The ship on which she sailed never reached
port and what her fate was is to this day an
unsolved mystery. One of the most tragic pic
lures in all American history is that of the
broken, disgraced Aaron Burr, a devoted ia
ther whatever else he may have been going
down to the battery every day for years, search
ing the horizon for the sail of a ship which
never came-the ship bringing back to him his
long-lost daughter. And then as a final touch

riage to the famous Madame Jumel who divorced

Richmond. John Marshall, chief justice Of the
Supreme court of the United States presided
over the trial. Luther Martin and Edmund Ran
dolph were counsel for the accused and William
Writ was counsel for the government The
foreman OF the grand jury which brought the
indictment against Burr was the waspish but
brilliant John Randolph of Roanoke And not
the least of the great figures in this case was
Burrs charming daughter, Theodosia of tragic
fame later
Although Aaron Burr was upon trial on the
most serious charge which can be placed against
the citizen of country, In reality he was little
more than a pawn in what was at the time
regarded as a test of strength between the Re-
publican President Jefferson and the Federalist
Chief Justice Marshall. The trial lasted from
March q to September Z 1907 and the full
story of the legal maneuyers executed by the
two clashing forces would require a book for
the telling.
Under the Constitution treason against the
United States consists only in levying war
against them, or in adhering to their enemies,
giving them aid and comfort" and no person
may be convicted of it unless on the testimony
of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on
confession in open court" The crux of the whole

Hatchery Best Method
of Maintaining Flock

There are three principal ways by
which poultry flocks are maintained
from year to year. These are: the
sitting hen, the farm incubator. and
the hatchery; and the most satisfac-
tory source of chick supply is the
hatchery, because of the fact that
the whole problem of brooding,
rearing and production. being on
highly uniform basis, is simplifed.
A farmer is not really in the poul-
try business until he has at least
100 laying pullets. A flock Of at least
this size makes it possible for him,
particularly If located near a large
market, to sell his eggs direct to
the retailer, getting the benefit Of
higher prices than are possible when
eggs are sold through the usual
trade channels.
To ensure a pullet flock of 100
birds In the fall it is necessary to
start with around $50 chicks. Where
chicks are purchased from the
breeder hatchery or the commercial
hatchery any desired number can
be started at a given time. and the
problem of management. broOding.
rearing and feeding is simplified.
What Is more important, the pull
lets in the flock mature at the same
age and go into the laying house in
a condition suited to high produc-
tion.

WNO service.
During the rush season, owners
of farm flocks of poultry forget the
birds and as result mites and lice
get to work with a resulting de-
crease in the number of eggs laid,
and the effort of the chickens to
rOOSt on a tree limb rather than in
the poultry house.
This is the season when the an
nual war begins between mites on
the one hand and eggs on the other.
Poultrymen act as spectators but
pay a stiff admission price to wit
ness the battle. Neglect of the flocks
at this time invites enemies of good
poultry husbandry to get busy, and
chief among these is the well-knOwn
mite. The insect infests poultry
houses, usually hiding away under
the perches during the day but
preying upon the birds at night.
sucking their blood, lowering their
vitality and thereby decreasing egg
production.
Here are some of the ways in
which mites may be eradicated.
First, do not nail down the rOost
poles fast to the supports. If they
are nailed, knock them loose. Then
spray the roosts, and the whole
house, if needed, with old burnt CYL
inder oil mixed with equal parts of
kerosene.
Second, paint or spray the roost
with carbolineum, as recommended
in Farmers Bulletin S01 of the
United States Department OF Agri-
culture. Past history shows that
mites have won every war In which
they have engaged unless outside
aid is given, and now that every
source of farm income is needed by
the owner, time should be given to
eradicate poultry parasites TO the
extent that the birds may give their
highest production.

Poultry Hints

Poultry and eggs possessing a
standard type are meeting with in
creased demands on the consuming
market.
Prevention is the safe way to
raise turkeys. Keep the old birds
away from the young. Hatch eggs
in an incubator.
The demand for young pullets is
increasing every year and the trade
in them can be made highly profit
table to the producer.
If eggs are gathered three times
day, there will be fewer broken
and soiled ones, and the eggs will
retain their fine quality longer.
While there are records of pullets
which laid eggs earlier, the time
when they should begin to lay is
between the ages of five and six
months.
Resistance to disease can be in
creased by breeding from strong m
related birds and by the use Of
good feeds and good feeding
methods.
Provide roosts for the young
growing birds. When these are
available they will not pile up at
night and smother in the hot cor
ners Of the brooder houses.
There is no profit in feeding hens
which do not lay, and this is the
season when many decided to go on
vacation. Learn to pick out the
slackers and sell them for meat.
Providing plenty of shade for the
yards is one way of protecting the
flock from the hot weather. If there
is not sufficient natural shade. arti-
fetal shelter can easily be provided
with boards, canvas, or brush.

Plans to work for the interests Of
the owners Of commercial properties, In
cases where voluntary bankruptcy pro-

regional or national scope are threat
ened, are being formulated by the Ma
tional Association Of Real Estate

DIRECT HOME LOAN
|. PLEA DISCOURAGED
Results Are Declared Better
From Applications to
Member Banks.

The home purchaser can obtain a
larger measure of financial aid from
the home loan banks by applying to
one of its member institutions than
by seeking a direct loan from the new
Federal agency. it was declared today
by Ward B. Whitlock, Springfield. ILL.,,
president of the United States Building
& Loan League.
Opposition to overemphasis on the
provision of the home loan bank act
providing for loans to be made di-
rectly to the home purchmaser was
voiced by Mr. Whitlock, who asserted
that such misunderstanding" Of the
law is retarding progress of the new
banks.
"As the law stands" he declares in
a statement released by the league. 'it
appears that in the case Of q direct
loan the regional bank could loan the
home owner not more than 40 per cent
of his property value on an amortized
mortgage, or not more than 80 per
cent on q straight mortgage. The law
qualities such borrowers by the phrase
ANY home owner who comes within
the limits of this act That implies
restrictions which the direct-loan
spokesmen do not seem to have con-
sidered On the other hand, the bor-
rover who goes to a member institu-
ton can get anywhere from SO to a
65 per cent loan. In other words, he
is better off by far if he does not get
a direct loan.
"It should also be made clear to the
public that this system will have to
depend upon private capital for its sup
port and that bonds cannot be floated
by an institution which makes a 120
per cent loan to the home owner, as
some seem to expect the home loan
banks to do.
more than a fifth of the building
and loan associations eligible to join
the home lean banks have done so
already, according to a recent an
nouncement by member Of the Fed
eral Board. 1t is noteworthy and in
deed fortunate that so many Of these
institutions have had the faith to go
ahead and put their money in he cap
ital stock Of these banks, In spite of
the erroneous idea going around that
the banks would make direct loans to
home owners to an extent that would
impair the safety Of any business in
stitution.
Through the participation of eligible
member institutions the home owners
who can offer sound security will get
credit. The home loan banks are res
ervoirs, the building and loan associa-
tions and other existing home financing
agencies are the lines Of distribution
from that reservoir. That is the entire
plan of the system in a nutshell"
