to him more confidently now, and
he smiled down at her as if she
were the only woman in the glitter
ing salon. He took her back to her
seat and made his adieux, covering
her embarrassment with his protec-
tive air. Should she go on sitting
where he had left her, or should
she slip back to her quiet place by
the wall? The chief. officer was
dancing now with Miss Foster. Her
lovely arms were twined around his
neck. Nevertheless, he remembered
Miss Nudge, sitting alone in her
corner, and tossed her a scarlet bal
loon. She held it aloft for a mo-
ment and smiled at him. Then she
let u the air and put the Debated
bauble in the black satin bag that
Agatha had given her for evening
wear. Her first souvenir!
Clar, an enticing Cleopatra, was
still dancing with Lovat, a Spanish
grandee. Angela watched them over
her creme de menthe frappe. She
could see that her husbands fingers
were deeply sunk in an exquisite
back. At last he relinquished his
partner and moved smoothly to-
wards her.
"FIow about turning in, Angela'
You're looking tired" His voice
was solicitous. She was suddenly
ravaged under her makeup.
II am, rather. Dancing at sea
makes one very tired-the strong
air, l think, and the bumpy deck"
"But you've scarcely danced at
all, Angela" said Lovat, a little
Grossly.
"Yes, but I feel those things,
Lovat darling"
She went below and unlocked
her period costume. She took off
her powdered wig, but it was
scarcely whittier than the smooth
hair beneath it. Turning her back
on Lovat, she slipped into the love-
hest of her negligees, black lace owe,
apricot chiffon.
you'll be gone from me in five
days." she told him. II wonder il
you will miss me when you are back
in England"
II shall simply be lost without
you," he assured her.
"Ah, Lovat," Angela's voice wa:
a sigh. Elbow I shall miss you! Be-
sides, I shall be five months Older
when I come back"
you'll Away be the same tc
me-" he said, and stopped to kiss
her hand. She leaned over his head
and her lips brushed the dark
lacquer of his hair. The mirror re-
vealed the widening path that
stretched between them. Angela
turned from the sight of his youth.
Whatever happens, I shall still
adore you," she said.
Lovat studied her as she lay on
the pillow-the tenderness of her
mouth, her sensitive nose, the way
her hair swept back from her ears;
but the mask of age was set as she
lay in the semblance Of sleep.
He slipped into his dressing-gowr
and sat with a book under the shad-
ed light. Half an hour passed and
he scarcely moved. At last he was
sure of her regular breathing and
the relaxed look of her face. She
must be asleep.
He put down his book, snapped
off the light, stole to the door and
through the curtain that flaped as
the ship rode noisily on her way.
Two dark eyes caught his jubilant
small-boy air as he slipped past the
shaft of light. Angela turned to the
wall and burning tears rolled slowly
down her cheeks.

Good news for farmers was con-

the President has raised the $780,
100000 crop loan fund to $37,-
100000. These loans, which are
available, are limited to the
borrowers immediate needs and, in
all cases, to 5000 per person. In
terest will be charged at 5H% and
the loan will constitute a first lien
on the crop financed by it.
The loan regulations contain two
features which all farmers should
heed, regardless of whether or not
they are borrowers. Applicants
must plant a garden for home use.

Department, Roy Headley, chief
Of the Fire Control Division, an
nounces.
Headley, after his return from
a fire control meeting at Spokane,
said that aerial fire control,
which is opening up an entirely
new field of forest fire combat, is
perahps the most important effort
in combating the menace of
fires"
The division, he said, is planning
to experiment further ITO find out
how far we car go in using planes
in combating fires"
Pioneer work in this field has
been done by Forest Service Off
GERS, he said, and the next step
will be experimenting in dropping
water or chemicals direct on small
fires to retard their progress.
Merely dropping chemicals on
fires cannot solve the whole fire
problem, however," Headley con-
tinued IF it ever became practi-
cal to carry chemicals in air planes
to drop on fires, it probably would
answer most of our present prob
lens As yet, the conventional
type of plane is not adapted for
this work"
Fire forces also are experiment.

Deaths Increase
And Births Drop
In NC. In March

Deaths in North Carolina during
March of the present year took a
decided upward trend, while births
were much lower, according to a
report issued by the bureau Of vital
statistics of the state board of
health.
The statement showed that
deaths last month numbered s.
5S3, an increase of 4S1 over the
total of 3,102 for the previous
March, while births dropped from
$500 to 6,s77, a decrease of 113.
Pneumonia, in all its forms, was
the principal cause of death, with
81 fatalities, a gain of 1S6 over
the AS casualties recorded in
March, 1885. Influenza, which as
suimed a mild epidemic form dur
ing the past month, accounted for
2S5 deaths, compared with 146
for the same month of the preced-
ing year, a gain of 13e.
tuberculosis deaths, in pulmon-
airy and all other forms, jumped
from 167 during March of last
year to 1917 last month, showing an
increase of 50, while cancer claim

victims, III dying from that dis
ease during March 1886 compar-

One of the more favorable fea-I
lures of the report was a decrease
in the number of deaths. of infants
of less than one year old, which
showed a drop of from 495 to 463.
The number Of maternal deaths
decreased from 81 to ~.
Not a single death was reported
as a result Of smallpox, measles or
scarlet fever, while fatalities from
whooping cough declined from 80
last March to two for the same
month Of this year.

Traffic Violaters
Attend Classes
Courts Find Real Bene-
fits Results From
Teaching Drivers
Road Rules

Washlngton-A plan for cities
to sentence traffic violators to a
school to learn how to drive safely
will soon be suggested by the
Presidents accident prevention
conference as a method by which
cities might help cut down the
number of automobile deaths.
The plan already has been adopt
led by Milwaukee, which, as the big
city with the fewest traffic deaths,
has been selected as a model in the
traffic drive.
Under it, the judge of the traf-
fic court is given the job of decid-
ing whether the offender might
profit more by instruction than by
a money OF jail penalty.
If he decides in favor of the
school, the offender is sentenced in
the regular manner and paroled on
condition that he take the traffic
school course.
Hardness, failure to attend or
failure to complete the work prop
erly brings the offender back into
court for revocation of the parole.
In the beginning, only first of
tenders were allowed to go to the
school, but later the judge became
convinced that proper instruction
more effective than punish
NEST in correcting a wrong driving
attitude. Therefore, some persist
ent violators are now enrolled.
Each person is required to at
tend two nights a week for three
weeks. Classes begin at 1880
o'clock and last an hour. After
the roll call, the instructor gives a
half hour lecture and the rest of
the time is given over to discus
sion.
Since the topic for discussion
usually centers upon the city's
traffic laws, they are frequently
very warm and require a quick
witted instructor to keep a step
of his students. In the end
the instructor sums up the merits
and shows the practical side of
the question, taking refuge behind
statistics.
An examination is given at the
end of the course.
Briefly, the lectures cover the
public's responsibility in accident
prevention, rules of the road and
traffic laws, proper turning move
ments and signals, pedestrian yer
u motorist, safety maintenance
of motor vehicles, enforcement of
speed law versus injury accidents
and the nut behind the wheel.
In Milwaukee, officials said an
increasing number of visitors at
tended the sessions and there had
been a demand for such a school
for citizens interested in receiving
instructions before being arrested.
