NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER. TWENTY-SIX

I
UPSTAIRS in the room which
~ had been hers for eight days,
Ruth Woodson was getting ready
to leave. She was debating ques-
ton of ethics with herself. Could
she conscientiously take away with
her the clothes Penny had turned
over to her?
mo, 1 can't" was her first de-
cision. They really belong to those
women of st. Stephens Church who
held the rummage sale. To take
them would be like stealing from
the church itself"

ethics. 81 need them to keep me
warm and decent. To save myself
from pneumonia and help me to
! get a job. If ST. Stephens Guild
had them to sell they'd turn around
and use the money to help some
needy and worthy girl exactly like
me. so why all the fuss? Yes,
I'll take a few of them. Not the
evening clothes, of course. Not the
navy blue satin, though I'd give my
| head for that one. just the knit
dresses and the suit and a couple
of felt hats. I'll take an extra pair
of shoes, too, besides the oxfords on
my feet. Those are the things !
need"
The thin sunshine of the early
morning had disappeared and the
day promised to be damp and ex-
ceedingly raw. Thankful for the
warmth of the fur trimmed sport
suit, Ruth put it on. She pulled
a felt hat iauntily over her left
eye.
Nov l think I'll carry couple
of books, SO I'll look like a COL
lege girl beating ride" Once,
when riding with John Mcneil, she
had seen girls asking for rides to
and from the little college which
lay 20 miles away. No one had
seemed to think less of them for
their boyish independence. Very
nice looking persons picked them
up.
AS she had no suitcase, Ruth
used a heavy cardboard suit box
from Bertha's Storeroom. It ex-
actly held the extra clothes. She
tied it with a stout string. And
then there was nothing left to Go
but gather up her box, her purse,
and the two books which she had
selected as appropriate.
They'll be Duncan Hunters gift
to me-" she thought, for saving his
life!" She knew that he was still
sleeping. MY strangest adventure
of ALL" she decided, thinking of last
night.
But there was yet another adven-
ture in store for Ruth Woodson be-
fore she should pass through the
blue door into the world again.
AS she descended the last step of
the stairway and stood cautiously
listening to Penny's heavy football
in the kitchen, girl came through
the dining room door and con-
fronted her. The stranger was as
graceful as a tiger and wore brown
! tweed suit, a loose fur at her neck
and a small brown hat. She had
! gold hair and dark eyes. Her

Ruth answered, with lips trem-
bling with rage, What I said is true.
You-you wasp!"
You tramp" Elaine retorted.
Now, get outl"
mot until I've left these clothes
behind" Ruth said coldly and
steadily. Il don't want anything
that has ever been yours to touch
my body" She turned and went
upstairs, carrying the box with her.
Ten minutes later she came down
again, dressed in a wrinkled blue
suit and matching hat, both OF
which seemed shrunken from a
hard rain. Besides her purse and
the two books, she carried parcel
wrapped in paper-the meager eX-
tras she had brought with her to
this house.
Elaine had her back turned,
powdering her nose at the long
mirror. She suddenly felt panic
stricken and regretfui. She reached
for her purse which was lying on
the table, opened it quickly and ex-
tended a $40 bill. You'd better
take this" she said briskly.
Ruth brushed it away as II II had
been an annoying insect. Without
looking at Elaine Chalmers she went
out of the blue door and down the
steps, her eyes still clear OF the
tears that longed to cloud thein
utterly.
She was not striving for an eff
fective exit. She only wanted 10

Ruth's cheeks famed. She had
forgotten that she was wearing this
girls clothes from head to feet.
She wished that the earth might
open and swallow her. Since that
could not happen, she desired moth
ing so much as to burst into tears
and cry her heart out.
Yet, even as the tears stung her
eyelids, she fought them back. She
would not bow down in defeat be-
fore this golden, singing creature
who was tormenting her. Not yet!
1t was more than a personal thing.
It was a class conf1ict-the poor

Ruth Said,. They were your
clothes once. All of them. But
you gave them to st. Stephens Guild.
I'm indebted to the church, be-
lieve. One doesn't mind that so
much"
Elaine remarked, you're terribly
clever, aren't you? Or should we be
frank and say you're terribly tricky?
Have you always lived by cheating
and lying?"
Ruth answered, You can say
those things to me, of course.

Perhaps John Mcneil would if
he were here?"

 ANNUAL REPORT

The total kill of bears on that island last year approached the limit be- lieved by the Commission to be the largest that can be permitted to as sure maintenance of a supply. With prospects for an increasing number of big game hunters coming to Alas ka in 1885 to bag Admiralty Island bears, it is advisable to reduce the limit from to for residents and nonresidents alike. Seventy-six big game hunters visited Alaska this year and spent more than $150, ,000.- loo, according to the records of the Commission.

Resident Hunting License

Growing numbers of aliens and nonresidents within the Territory during the past year or two who have been hunting illegally under the guise of being residents has brought about many requests for a resident hunting license to aid the Commission in checking all hunters in the field to facilitate the enforce ment of the nonresident require ments of the Act, the resident hunt ing provision of the Act is to be in- voked in the first judicial division. The fee for this license is $100 and efforts will be made to have the revenue from it applied to the con- trol of wolves in that division.

The need for the registration of trap lines to build up the wild fur supply is becoming more apparent from the increasing number of ap- peals being received from trappers throughout the Territory.

The Com mission expects to present similar plan for the consideration of the trappers of Alaska during the next year.

MILK BOARD PLAN
DROPPED BY ALLEN
Proposal Abandoned in Face Of
High Court Ruling-Prices
Must Be Met.

Because of a recent decision OF the
United States Supreme Court that
milk is not a public utility, District
Commissioner George E. Allen has
abandoned the proposal to set up
Milk Control Board here.
Allen first suggested making milk
public utility when the Maryland
Virginia Milk Producers Association
recently raised the price. which re-
suited in a Scent increase in the
quotation on milk for families on re-
lief.
The Commissioner instructed the
Office of the corporation counsel to
draft the necessary legislation to set
up control board, but Elwood Seal,
assistant corporation counsel, who has
made a study Of the milk situation
throughout the country, informed the
Commissioner of the Supreme Court
decision. Only in an emergency, he
said, could such control be estab-
lished, and the attorneys agreed that
no such condition exists here at
present. -
Allen also suggested a proposal to
import milk from sheds beyond the
jurisdiction of the District health ofi-
Ger, but that plan also was found to
be not practicable.
As a consequence the District will
be forced to meet the advanced price
in purchases for needy families.

SOUTHEAST PLANS
FIGHT FOR TREES.
Ridge Road HoIIies Only Re.
naming Esthetic Asset,
Congress to Be Told.

Unsuccessful in their protests to
National Capital Parks officials TO
save what they term "the only re-
naming esthetic assets in Southeast
Washington" irate Southeast citizens
today we're making plans to appear be-
fore Congress to protest the removal
Of half a dozen fully grown holly
trees from Ridge road southeast.
The trees, which are located on a
property formerly known as 109 Ridge
road southeast, recently were ordered
transplanted to Rock Creek Park.
Three or four already have been ex-
cavated and are ready to be moved,
according to Adelbert w. Lee, presi-
dent of the Randle Highlands Citi-
zens' Association, who was the. first
to note the abduction"
For Better Protection"
The reasons for the removal, the
citizens we're told when they pro-
tested to park officials. were that the
trees would receive better police pro-
lection in Rock Greek Park and that
they would be better appreciated be-
cause of the thousands of people who
pass through the park.
They are adding insult to injury
Lee declared today, pointing out that
the removal of the trees was ordered
at a time when Southeast Washington
is waging vigorous fight for "our
share of civic improvements"
"Of course. the trees now would
be better appreciated in Rock Greek
Park" he said, but if more money
was spent to improve Southeast Wash
ington, more people would visit this
section. too. AS far as better police
protection is concerned, I never saw
any tree vandalism in the Southeast. "
Trouble Threatened.
r. B. English. vice president of the
Southeast Business Mems Association,
another leader in the protest. declared:
This is going too far, and if we as
citizens and taxpayers have any legal
rights left it's going to get somebody
into trouble"
Lee said the removal order had
come so suddenly the various civic
organizations have not been able to
register concerted protests. He as
serted, however, he is sure the pro-
tests made by Southeast leaders will
receive the full support of the civic
groups.
The citizens plan. at an early cate,
to appear before congressional COM
mittees in charge of appropriations
for parks.
The holly trees are almost so years
old and have grown to height of 20
feet, the maximum growth for holly.
