DOLLAR GOES

Chorus Girl Calls Are Heartbreaking for Hun
 dreds Tn New York
By WILLIAM GAINES

NEW YORK. Nov. 29.-Yes, sir, it certainly is reassuring to know how much further the dollar goes these days. If one happens to have dollar.
 Just when we were beginning to worry about what we would do about Christmas presents, one of the most distinguished jewelry houses on Fifth Avenue breaks out with a sale Not just 10 or 25 per cent off of regular prices, either, but an honest to goodness half price sale.
 For instance, the advertisements inform us that a necklace, with a cabochon emerald, over 57 carats, 3 small cabochon emeralds, ? tri- angular diamonds, 32 marquise, l5 bagauette and 424 round diamonds formerly held at $67.000. now can be procured for a mere $33,500.'
 An emerald and diamond brace let to go with the necklace would have cost us $28,500 before the sale. Now 1t is only $14.250. Twen- ty thousand dollar emerald ear-

and herd group of the choicer beauties to one side.
 In turn, the reduced group pass es scrutiny. The upwanted ones get out, some of them bravely flip, some fighting to hold back the tears. In these days a chorus girl has to know something about danc- ing. The show girl who is re- tained only to parade her charms is rarity.
 Even should she pass this judg- ment, the chorines job is not se- cure until she demonstrates that she can readily pick up the dance directors intricate routines. If shs falters, the snap of the directors fingers vii bring another hords of beauties on the run.
 Then, after several weeks of re- hearsal, she begins to worry about how long the show will run. It.: a great life, and the wonder o1 it all is that so many girls stick with it against such odds.

Protection vs. Free Trade.
(Prince Rupert News.)


 The Daily News has been charged with deserting it's principes and espousng the cause of protec tion. The charge is of course quite baseless. We believe in free trade the only sensible policy for the nations of the world and believe the time will come when tariff walls will be abolished and forgotten but not in this generation or the next. It takes time to bring about these radical changes.
 The United States is of the most highly protected countries in the world. Protection is based sefshness but so is business Business people try to make the best possible deal for them selves With a neghbor holding these views we bound to act on the defensive and raise our tariff walls so that we may be in a position to negotiate for lower tariffs.
 For years we have been saking for the abolition of the two cents duty on habut with no results. We have had nothing to offer in return for the concession. With our present high tariffs we can negotiate for lower tariffs with neighbor. Re- ciprocity is a possibility, especially in view of the position we hold in the British Empire since the Ottawa conference. It became necessary to meet fire with fire. We have done this but cannot live on fire. We need international trade and we can talk turkey with the United States with some hope of success. especially if the Demo- cratic Party should be successful there next week. which seems altogether likely.

CHORUS CALL

Chorus calls are heartbreaking experiences for hundreds of poor girls with more hope than beauty or ability.
 Sometimes a couple of thousand girls have tried to crowd onto a stage for inspection by a producer and his lieutenants, and this crowd must be weeded down to a half hundred or less without loss of time.
 There are girls on Broadway who have been responding to these calls for years without, so far as anybody can remember, even hay. ing stood up with the finalists. The faces and figures of some of then are so familiar to producers ane dance directors that they neve give them a second look any more
 Naturally. every producer has ; few girls on his list whom h knows ahead of time he will wan to decorate his stage. And som of the producers influential friend and the angel of the show ma. have an interest in some beautie starting their careers in the chorus This further cuts down the chance of the girl who somes to the judg ing unheralded.
 The applicants doff their dresse and swarm onto the stage in re vealing bathing suits or practic panties and shirts. The eagle-eye' selectors go up and down the line

RED CROSS ROLL CALL STILL OPEN.

There is still time for Channelites to get into the Red Cross The roll call has been extended until the outlying towns can be heard from. In tn meantime the lists in Juneau are kept open. And II passng. it is good to know that Gastineau Chan nel has already passed her 1881 record. The importance of the Red Cross and the urgen dutv to support it are set out by the Cincinnati Enquirer which recently said
 The Red Cross-it is, indeed the Great Mother" More than 120O0,000 men, women and children received disaster and unem- poyment relief from this source during the fiscal year ending June 30 So says the report of the organization, just made public.
 The organization of the Red Cross used S3597 282 of it's own funds for the idle, for drought sufferers and other groups Its ois- tribution of wheat and other supplies to the unemployed tempered want and prevented Restitution on the part of hundreds of thousands of human beings in sore distress Wheat flour feed-stuffs for live stock, cloth ing shelter garden seed nursing care and advice-all these things came from the hands of this great almoner of the republic It has led the coordination of relief agencies, churches and public spirited citizens, in forming strong and effective central com munity interest-Supplyng funds when local funds exhausted.
 The Red Cross also gave emergency and other relief in 90 disasters while carrying on the vital unemployment relief-disasters of fire and flood and famine and tornado It has dealt heroically and effectively with hundreds of thousands of ex-service men and their families and with thousands in hos pitals-wth problems of public health and the home. It has been the hand servant of the Government and the guardian of the people.
 The Red Cross holds warm place in the great humane heart of the world. Support for the organization ought to be- will be, willing and generous.

CHAPTER 10. ENTER DICKY

EN Eh DlOAI
 Spring again. The white dusk of an April evening. Trees below in Gramercy Park. Taxds halted before the Players Club. Give sprawled in chair in the bachel- or's apartment he had occupied since his return from Europe. His firm had wished to send him back to Vienna. He'd refused for the secret reason that Santa's divorce was pending.
 For the thousandth time he was reviewing his relations with her The loyalty he was displaying was asinine. Each time he had given her a fresh chance she'd failed him. He supposed she would con- tinue to fail him to the end of the chapter. When she was free and he sought to claim her, she would probably declare that she was sick of marriage. His next news would be that she was hon. eymooning with another fellow
 He came to grips with himself. Santa was his vice. In other di- rections he could discipline his cravings; where she was concerned there was no bridling them. That this should be so reused his in- oignation. The goal he'd set him. self was to become leader. That he could succeed he'd proven dur ing the year abroad. He never ought to have re-sought Santa He was again her slave, spell bound, interminably awaiting her pleasure.
 Already he had been penalized for his infatuation. Ills impolitic reluctance to represent his firm in Europe had lowered his stand ing with MT. Cleasby
 And here was revealed the ob- stinate idocy of his conduct. since that night when Santa kissed him so impetuously, he had not seer her He had Deen permitted tt render her no service Had beer forbidden to write to her.
 Keep out of the picture" hel father had advised, adding that i he intruded he might complicatt matters by getting himself quoted as the alienator of her affections So for six months, he'd marked time, uninformed as to what wa happening and powerless to hell her.
 The telephone tinkled.

 For me, too," Dicky smiled.

 Dicky accepted.

 Frankly, I am"
 Then let me explain. I'm at m wits end. I've seen Santa's fla ther. He'll have nothing to d with me-"
