CHAPTER 31. TRUTHS FOR BARBARA

| 44CN1lQ1lAC041J l)ell R1A O NOl1t5 U collecting the documents that sti bestrewed the table. Judy had sai that of her, that she was jealou of anyone else's power to hel Mark. And she had denie. that the accusation was just. Sh still denied it.
 If all the millionaires in tn world banded together to help hin for whatever reason, she woul bless them and praise them. Blu when a girl, her rival for Mark favor, had to buy him off with sum of money
 q must pay you back" she said "I have been saving hard latel, but now that I'm not to be mar ried for at least year, I can af ford to let some of it go. Don let's argue about this at least"
 Leila suddenly began to shou at her again
 "You call everything argument that you want to close your mint to. Any discussion, any contra. diction is argument and you won listen. Probably you're not listen. ing now, you're telling yoursel that I'm trying to stop your mar. rying Mark because I want him.
 That's quite true. do want him. or I think I do. Or perhaps you're telling yourself that I want to marry Farrell Armitiage because like him so much. That's true too; when he told me he'd fallen in love with you I said I'd helr him get you"
 You had no right to promise him. You knew"
 Knew! I knew you and Mark were engaged and planned to mar ry! But what of that? Engage ments are broken sometimes. Mar riages don't take place. Business es are sold or just neglected. In ttrior decorators drop Toxetet whether TeXeter likes it or not and dash up to do jobs for famous actresses and millionaires.
 Life is a hazard and risk, Barbara, as well as looking ahead and saving and working Itss funny-I'nf no manner of aise compared with you, but I can see that you're losing such a lot. You plod and wait and feel quite sure you love Mark and don't love Far rell, and it's your duty not to list ea to any argument about either and all the while real life is riding by!" N
 The room was full of the smell Of the lamp and the mustiness cf an old house. Barbara thought irl elevantly how she had always hated Kings Barn. Well, at any rate, whatever happened, M ark would never have to live here again.
 GO and find paper and string'' suggested Leila, in her normal tones, "and we'll pack up this litter"
 Barbara went immediately, Paper and string should be in a kitchen drawer, but she was not surprised when she could not find them.
 While she rumaged she remem- bered in a miserable confusion, that the emerald pendant was now in Armitage's possession. Her face scorched. She would have to ask him to return it and, somewhow, without explanation, let Mark have t back.
 There's a piece of paper here" called Leila.
 Barbara gathered up all she had been able to find and returned to the sitting room. Leila was busy with wrapping of her own con- trivance.
 Its newspaper from the bottom Of a drawer" she said. Messy. isn't it? And not too strong. We Tad better use what you found for an outer wrapper"
 Tt makes a smaller parcel than thought remarked Barbara, pre- occupied.
 Leila folded and turned and fas- tened diligently.

DRUGGISTS FILE
 STRONG APPEAL
Seek Permit to Sell Liquor After Repeal Without
 Prescription

Attorney John c. Blackall of Hartford, formerly of Waterbury, has appealed to the state liquor control commission for a reconsid- eration of it's ruling on druggists permits. The ruling announced yes- terday in Hartford attempts to abrogate the privileges secured by the druggists through an amend ment to the state liquor control act adopted by the Legislature on the final day of its session.
 The report has been made that druggist permits for the sale of al- coholic liquors as required by the state law would not be issued at all. Attorney Blacka1l represents the Retail Druggists association.~ The news" that the liquor commission had taken such unexpected action startled the druggists of the state, who have been making prepara- tons to be ready to meet all de- mands for liquor without prescrip- tiors after the repeal became, eff. fective.
 William J. Dunphy of this city, president of the Waterbury Drug gists' association, believes that the ruling will be revised and that the druggists will have their privileges restored to them.

PRINCIPLES THAT
 MAKE FOR SUCCESS
Cameron Beck'S Advice to Young Men in Address
 Last Night

Cameron Beck, personal man. ager of the New York Stock Ex- change, was the speaker at the meeting of the Industrial Fore mems club at the YMCA last night. The session was called to order by Clarence D. Wooding, who intro- duced Arthur DuBois as toast master.
 MT Beck dealt principally on the necessity of one fitting himself for the battle in life, that is provided he aims to keep abreast of the pro- cession. To do this the speaker said that now more than ever the coun- try needs plentitude of the old fashioned virtues and a revival of youths ambitious spirit.
 In 17 years at the New York Stock Exchange, MT Beck has in- terviewed more than 50,000 per- sons and has had direct supervision of an office force of more than D. 500.
 Too few young men and women, he said, are willing to make the sacrifice necessary to train them selves for leadership in their fields. Those who rise from the ranks are willing to pay the price of mental growth and take their work and its problems to heart.
 He outlined four principles need ed by youth if it would make a real success: the need of definite plan of living, the need of a definite purpose of life, the need of perse- verance and the need of strong and sturdy character.

 Paris (UP)-The lure of lace IS undisputed and the laurels lavished upon fine linens and lingeri owe their existence to the gossamef threads and mlnble fingers that weave them into trimming.
 The romance of lace is as deli cate and artistic as it's patterns,
 In the Middle Ages women work ed at home and artistic handwork was their pride and joy. Lace nrst began as netting and did not exist as we know it today until the sec ond half of the 18th Century. Ine art of making open-work existed previously and this was done py drawing out threads Qater called drawn-work) and weaving mater ials loosely on the looms. Egypt and Peru were the first countries to develop this craft.
 The French dentelle. strangely enough comes from the word dent, which means a tooth. The Italian word for it is merletto from mer- To, . battlement, and the German spitze means a point or peak. The origin of shipping the edges Of ma terials into points and scalloping the hems of skirts and coats-a custom practiced today in the great style houses-dates to the Middle Ages. Fringe making be- gan about this time also. It was known, however, to the Assyri- ans and Babylonians who, in turn, passed their knowledge on to the Greeks.
 Holland was the birthplace of the Iace-making industry. Its &C.,

25O, ,O0O Autos Visit Exposition
4O% of Visitors Use This Means of Travel to GO to

has been flooded with false pro- paganda as to motoring facilities to Chicago and within the city It. self. Motorists are told that foreign auto licenses are not recog- nized in Illinois; that visitors In motor cars are stopped at the out skirts of the city; that no park ing facilities exist near the Exposi- ton: while the. danger of travel by motor Is painted in lurid colors.
 "All of Athis Is sheer nonsense. To mention parking alone, there are parking facilities for 10000 cars at rates ranging from. 25 to 76 cents A day within a mile of the gates of the Exposition. Traffic has been so well handled that there has been little or no congestion even on big days.
 'The most reprehensible aspect of the propaganda is the effect it may have on hundreds of thou. sands of people who must depend on the family car. if they are to see the Exposition at all. There is probably no code of fair com petition that can reach this kind of thing--but 1t certainly consti- tutes a violation of the spirit in which the United States govern ment is at the moment attempting to mobilize all industries, businesses and classes of people in a CO., operative effort toward better times, bettef relations and better business ethics"

Coal Strike Is
 Being'T Threatened
(Continued from Page 1.)

(Continued from Page 1.) Lewis of the mine workers has threatened Johnson with rupture of negotiations and an appeal to the country. Lewis frequently has said labor was prepared to use force if necessary to make secure the rights it felt were guaranteed by the na- tional recovery act.
 The coal code problem weakens the impetus of the drive which be- gan today to place employers 100 per cent behind the recovery pro- gram by Labor Day. More than 100000 volunteer workers began soliciting enlistments after Recov- cry Administrator Johnson had ap- pealed in a national address last night to keep the blue eagles "wings clean and talons sharp. Johnson specifically told the volun- teers to avoid the implications Of boycott against recalcitrant em- ployers.
 But the administrator insisted that the American people were within their rights in any deter imitation to deal only with those firms which display the blue eagle insignia of cooperation.
 The NRA labor advisory board is determined to make q fighting issue of the new labor clause. which is cropping up in code after code. In the form it is now writ ten into the coal code 1t gives em- ployers the right to hire. dis charge, promote and denote em- ployes on the basis of individual merit, without regard to their membership or non-membership Tn any organization"
 Labor leaders declare a provision of this sort give employers the op- portunity unjustly to dismiss union workers on the ground of ineffici- ency. They consented to inclusion of a similar clause into the auto mobile code only on the under standing that it would not be talk en as a precedent in the writing of other codes.
 John l.. Lewis, president of the II. M. w., and other labor leaders were disturbed at the turn Of events over the weekend.
 It was lcarned that Lewis in- formed Johnson that he was pre- pared to break off the discussions with non-union operators and "go to the country" Lewis has been having difficulty holding miners at work in a number of mines where labor difficulties have arisen and where workers have reported un- rest.
 Disruption of the present nego- tiations would bring these troubles to a showdown and lead to spread of discomfort throughout the coal fields.
