this distressing friendship she had
formed for a man reputed to be a
scoundrel and a knaye.
True, JEFF admitted, he had himself
introduced Capt Deering to Babs.
But surely she had more sense than to
let a man like that cause such gos-
sip. -.
"Gossip!" With a spring, Barbara
was off the couch, standing before
him; all the pent-up fury, all the ex-
aggerated grievances of the past
months glaring from her eyes. He
should talk to her Of gossip, of low
intrigue, of adventurers! . He, the
proud arbiter of the family, should
mention scandal and riff-raf and
knaVes
Oh, yes, Barbara knew that Capt.
Deering had been married! Her laugh
was a triumph of sophistication He
had told her-but what of it? That
was all over now. And besides. what
business was it of his. jeffrey Their
rold's? He with his cabaret girl
friend. that unspeakable woman whom
Harvey had dragged into their lives. q. g. =.
At the light in her brothers eyes
Barbara faltered. her glance haughtlly
childish in its defiance. Then went
on. lashing herself against the thick
wall of his silence: saying cruel things
unforgettable things. things she did not
really believe herself. Saying them
from out of the depths of her wretch
ed, rebellious heart. For months now
Barbara had been goading herself to
believe that because jeff had not sided
with her in this matter of Harvey's
wife she must one day get even with
JEFF. Her very love for him and de-
pendence on his approval of herself
seemed pivoting on this point that
had come between them. 1t had be-
come an obsession-the obsession OF
spoiled. undisciplined child; build
ing up in her mind a ridiculous. ex-
aggerated case against her family,
against her own mode of life.
Just when she was beginning to be
happy again. she told herself now, be-
tween sobs Just when she was start

just when peop'e were commencing TO
forget about that Shanghai Rose. .

HAY FEVER VICTIMS
FIND GASPE A HAVEN
Historic Peninsula Becomes Pop
ular With Vacationists Suffer
ing From Malady.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
GASPE, Quebec, June 23.-Historic
Gaspe Peninsula country, where the
first claim of France to North America
was established in 1884, will draw
thousands of American motorists this
Summer for a reason other than the
celebration here of the 400th anni-
versary of the discovery of Canada
by Jacques Cartier.
Many will seek the rugged cliffs
and sandy beaches. the mountains
and the valleys of Gaspesia again this
year to find relief from hay fever.
Gaspe, in many places 1000 feet
above sea level, is free of ragweed
and other Initiatives and its fame as
a haven for hay fever victims is
rapidly spreading. The peninsula is
readily accessible to motorists via the
555-mile Gsspe Belt Highway.

SCENERY VARIED
IN NEW ENGLAND
Wooded Mountains and Fine
Beaches BeCkon the
Vacationing MotoriSt.
BY DOROTHY CANFIELD.

Our country is trying to do some
thing never before accomplished-to
create Nation that is truly one out
of a vast federation of States. The
difficulty of this undertaking is great;
the rewards OF success Gf we can
achieve it, will be enormous.
All through the nineteenth century
We lave had as aids in this effort,
first, universal literacy-the printed
page lifts the reader out of his
provincial corner, takes him here and
there all over this large country of
ours, helps greatly in making a man
an American citlzen as well as a citl-
zen of his own country. Next IN
Importance, perhaps, in this process
Of making Americans out of us all
was the movement toward the West
ern frontiers. And after that the
railroads.
These elements of American life
tending toward a sense of larger
unity IN the Nation are now power
fully reinforced by vast numbers of
automobiles owned by American fam
lies and used by them for Summer
vacation travel. All Summer long
these cars roll IN every direction over
American roads the sightseeing trav-
elers inside them aroused to a con-
SANITY deeper realization of Wlat 1t
is to be a citizen Of the United States,
aware as ne.er before CT the reality
OF those parts Of our nuge realm that
ere far away from their towns
It is platItude to say that every
such vacationing car should spend at
least one of those travelling Summers
in New England. Wherever its paSSen-
gers may live. there are III their COM
munity life elements that come from
New England. Every one of them has
read New England authors, for whose
books the New England landscape is
Background; every one has studied
American history and economics, large
parts OF which can hardly be under
stood without knowledge of the New
England background.
To drive about the pleasant New
England countryside. varying from
rough and wild to neatly finished and
eXQuisitely well kept from richly
wooded mountains to splendid beaches
on the open sea. is not only t,1e most
agreeable and least mcnotOnOuS of all
American Summer expeditions. 1t Is

Street gambling at it's best.
When we stop to consider that SO out
OF every 100 wells drilled in Cut Bank
field are producers, we realize that the
hazards are not very grave, nothing
as compared with any other line OF in
vestment down to grocery stores. With
such odds we know that the man who
KEEPS GOING Is bound to win
There enters into every investment
che human element" That ts where
the investors headwork comes In.
He win entrust his money to q man
of proven ability, when he makes
an investment I'm q mime or an oil
company, just as he VIII enfrust his
Life only to q physician eF surgeon
whose ability is proven.
However, the man who hires someone
else to make his fortune for him knows
that he must pay for this service. This
pay comes out of the earnings Of orr
investors dollars The man who will
make the MOST money Is the one who
win not have to pay Others a part of his
profit.
In other words. we can show any
intelligent investor how he can make
MORE money than can the operator who
drills the wells in Cut Bank field. The
investor will pay no salaries or commits
sions. He will run his own business
and take ALL the gross income for him
SELF He viii take less risk than the
operator and win take a greater profit.
How long opportunities Of this kind
wdll last, we cannot say. It is true at
the present time and some personal
fortunes wdla result from this condition.
We have examples OF investments totaling
$500 which are bringing in as great
an income as would savings of SIC, coo
at ordinary bond interest Furthermore
these investments viii pay back FIFTY
times the original outlay.
It does not take many such invest
ments to bring realization OF dreams
and the ending of hard times"

Anybody ~ everybody - can save
SOMETHING But after the money
is saved-THERE ts where the brain
work comes Ga
Some so at it bIindly and usually lose.
They do not admit that they are going
blindly but evade frankly facing the
facts and call It an Investment" When
a man bets on a horse race, he knows
pretty well what he Is doing, as
rule. He knows that most winners pay
only 10-to-1 and the 100-to-1 shots are
few and far between.
The man who buys stocks on margin
now knows--better than he did In 1877
that when the stock goes down, he has
to put up more cash or be sold out. Even
If he gets q stock that goes up so
points and doubles his money, he has
to risk the loss of the entire sum to make
a further gamble and he knows that It
is inevitable that what goes up must
come down"
He knows that real estate is q safe
investment when times are good. He
is likely to be eaten up by taxes, how
ever, unless he turns it over quickly.
He knows that If he makes a profit OF
Sc per cent In a few years he is doing
better than the average.
One way to make money is to plot
and scheme to get another persons

and selling for a higher price, with
profit. 1t applies to stocks, real estate
and the like. That Is SPECULATION"
To try to outguess another hand OF
cards, or to outguess the others on
horse race Is GAMBLING"
To put money into an undeveloped
natural resource such as minerals in the
ground is to us an INVESTMENT. -
When an ounce OF gold Is taken from the
ground, It robs no one. Yet 1t puts $35
into the hands Of the person who re-
covers It.
When q barrel of oil Is taken
from the ground It deprtves no
widows or orphans OF their savings;
nor does it blast the hopes Of am
other investor. II is clean, new
money that brings happiness into
the world.
MI ONEY placed in natural resources
fVN is truly an INVESTMENT. Wall
Street gamblers who have never
ereated a dollars worth Of wealth in their
lives and who live like parasites on the
people who DO create new wealth, are
the ones who call mining and oil invest
ments SPECULATION.
When we stop to consider that the
AVERAGE we'll in Cut Bank field pays
out its cost in less than IS months,
we realize that the oil business in that
field is more highly profitable than any

NE result OF the new deal" for Wall
Astreet bankers" has been the sus-
pension Of the propaganda that led
the American people 20 believe that any
Investment not sponsored by wall street
was tainted, speculative and dangerouh-
The word speculation" was neld up
as q scarecrow to warn investors away
from ANYTHING that was not ''gtlt edge.
The American people are pretty wen REQ
mn on "gilt edge" securities after what
happened TO the tons upon TOES OF
worthless stocks and bonds which the
wall Street barons chucked down the
throats of American investors. NOW
people are turning back to speculation
and have decided that speculation IS
the place where q man has 3 chance 70
make some money, as against gilt cage
investments where the money Is forever
lost.
With bank interest down to place
where the bank offers little more than
q secure hiding place for money, uhe
American people are again turning to
aneeulation. to investment in natural
resources and industries which CREATE
wealth, as against the hectic days OF
1928 when even bankers diverted money
from legitimate trade Channels 70 SEND
IL down TO Wall Street to get an iAegl-
mate rate of interest from burglars whose
market operations were financed-un-
wfllingqy-by bank depositors' money.
The average Americas who Is
working for wages or for a salary
or who has n small business Is
pretty well convinced that he canmOt
arrive at . place of financial indie
pendence by savings alone Were
ne able TO put his savings into
bonds which pay from 4 30 go per
amman, he would probably newer be
able to get an income OF $3.50 per
month, for that requires savings OF
$4,000 or more. It takes too long
a time 20 accumulate $4,000 OF
savings from the average PERSONS
income.
However, It is a first essential that
every person must save something each
month. 1t means rigid adherance to a
system of self-denial. People who set
out on a system Of this kind find that
they can meet the obligation to them
selves Just as they can meet outside
obligations But after the money has
been saved, the really big problem
arises. What is q person to do With IT!
To leave 1t in the bank means to fore
tit the chance for living upon the earn
ings Of the savings To invest it at inter-
est is almost equally hopeless The al
tentative is to put the money into some
thing which has possibilities OF making
a sufficiently large stake" to permit
him to do the things and enjoy the
realization OF his dreams during this life
instead of waiting for the next

IMPROVEMENT

Improvement of neglected prop
erty of all kinds is growing into
a national program, according to
Thomas S. Holden, vice president
Of F. w. Dodge Corporation.
Contracts for alterations and ad-
ditions to all classes of struc-
lures have doubled in volume
this year as compared with last
year.
In the 81 Eastern States the
amount of such work recorded
in the first nine months of this
year was $277, 878,300, compared
with $139,418.000 for the cor
responding period of 1888. A lit
tie over half of this years
modernization expenditures were
made on privately-owned com
mercial, industrial and residen'
tial buildings.
The largest single item in this
years record was $56,213,8OO for
commercial building improve
ments, a SO per cent increase for
this class over the corresponding
period of last year. Alterations
and improvements for residential
structures amounted to $45,977,-
100, a So per cent increase.
These figures do not include
small repair jobs, or many jobs
resulting from loans made under
the new Federal Housing Admin
istration plan.
This years upward trend in
rehabilitation projects is inter
preted by F. w. Dodge Corpora
ton as an indication Of the
timeliness and probable success
of the current national modern,
ization program.
Although the announced goal
of $1,5OO,OOO,OOO of moderniza'
ton business by the end OF 1885
looks very large, it would actually
cover less than 20 per cent OF
the country's known requirements
for housing repairs of all kinds,
without touching the needs for
improvements in existing hous'
ing, for new housing, or for i'm.
provements to other classes OF
property, according to Mr.. Hol,

BY JOHN DEAN MILLIGAN


Basic regulations for the "mu-
tual mortgage plan" have been
announced by James A. Moffett,
Federal housing administrator.
The date of the announcement
for this most important phase
of the national housing program
is months earlier than had been
expected.
The action will start in motion
the plan whereby America will
be "rehoused" under the most
inexpensive form of home fin
ancing ever known.
Due to the insistance of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, the interest rate
on a mutual mortgage" when
it is used to assist in financing
the purchase of a house will be
only five per cent throughout
the country.
The insurance premium, paid
into a common fund from which
the Government will make up it's
losses on defaulted mortgages,
will be but one-half of one per
cent annually when a house is
purchased.
All money paid into the insur-
ance fund which are not used
by the Government in defraying
its expenses will be turned back
to the home owners who obtained
the mortgages.
If the house was constructed
prior to July 81, 1884, there will
be no service charge on the mort
gage. If constructed after that
date, there will be a charge of 70
of / per cent a year.
Thus, in the latter case, the to,
tai yearly charge for interest, ETC.,
cannot be more than 6 per cent
But a part of this amount will
usually be repaid to the home
owner before the mortgage ma.
lures, thus enabling him to liqui
date it in full before it natures
When mutual mortgage is Sc
cured for the purpose of refinanc
ing present indebtedness, it must
cover all outstanding obligations
on a home, such as existing trusts
taxes, etc.
The interest rate in this case
is 51a per cent.
If the refinancing does not in
volve a change of borrower OF
lender, there will be no service
charge. If there is a change, q
service charge of y of l per CEN
a year will be collected.
Mondays article will continue
this discussion of the most i'm
portant phase. of the nationa
housing program.
