tions were too worn to be easily read.
The Kid put it into his pocket for
further reference and sought the pub
lie library. There he asked few ques-
tions of the attendant and came away
armed with the address of Wash
ington woman interested in occultism.
He found Mrs. Wright to be a
middle-aged matron Of evident culture
and refinement, with comfortable
home. That in city of its size
meant money. The Kid was shrewd
judge.
LIE INVARIABLY so phrased his
tales of woe that he was offered
what he wanted, without having to ask
for 1t. There were times, however,
when he did have to ask, and even on
those occasions he left his dupes with
the pleasant sense of having done an
unusually good deed on their own ini-
tiative.
Mrs. Wright received him on her
front porch. When he was installed
in a shaded. cushioned. wicker chair,
she asked, Now, what is it you want
to know about the Occult Society,
son?"
Her voice was soft; she was think
ing about the son of the Kids age
that had been such joy to her while
he had lived.
Maybe I had better tell you some
thing else first" the Kid began. This
was going to be easy. The old girl was
already as good as sold.

"On the train coming here from
Kansas City I met chap from home
who seemed to know me. I didn't
know him, but he knew all my friends.
We talked for time and fell asleep.
When woke up my bags and all my
money were gone. The railway OFF,
cials are trying to find him for me,
and until they do am in bad fix. "
Mrs. Wright's compassion for the
boy was too apparent. You say your
fathers name is Blake?" The Kid's s
soul smirked at his cleverness as he
replied in the affirmative.

THE lady excused herself for min
ute and went into the house.
The Kid could hear her moving papers
about and he smiled to himself as he
recognized the routine. She was look

organ of the society. In the magazine

Fire
just Where 1t
Belonged

No taxpayer wants the United
States Treasury to burn down.
Most Of them figure taxes are high
enough now.
So, when an early-morning
worker, on his way to work, passed
the Treasury Building at Fifteenth
and G Streets this morning and
noticed sparks flying from the
chimney he lost no time in turning
in the alarm.
Remembering the recent Post
Office fire, the fire board sent
more than a half-dozen pieces Of
fire apparatus screaming to the
scene.
With traffic tied up for several
blocks in all directions, firemen
rushed into the building to find
the blaze.
One of the Treasury Department
officials was found nonchalantly
toasting his toes in front of a log
burning fireplace that had been
put into use for the first time IN
years.

EINSTEIN ASKS
CITIZENSHIP

TRENTON, N. j., Jan. 16.-Prof.
Albert Einstein, the German phys
icist, an exile from his native land
because he is Jewish and anti.
Fascist, applied yesterday for
United States citizenship at the
post office here. At his home in
Princeton, DR.. Einstein declined
to comment on his application.
Just before noon DR.. Einstein
arrived at the Mercer County
Court and in hating English
asked an attendant for the Citi-
zen Papers Clerk. The attendant
did not quite understand the scien-
lists English and sent him to the
county clerk who in turn directed
him to report to the post office
where citizenship applications are
made.
Although the County Court and
the post office are about a mile
apart, DR.. Einstein, after pro-
fusely thanking the attendants
who directed him, set out for the
post office on foot. Despite a
drizzling rain he did not wear a
hat.
At the post office he received
his first papers after paying $3.50
to the Naturalization Bureau
clerk. According to law one may
apply for full citizenship after he
has resided in the United States
for five years and had his first
papers two years. Since he took
up residence here in October,
1888, he will be eligible in Octo.
Der, 1888.

lets her hair blow wildly. who
could sit down beside Maxwell
Bodenheim and fancy she was
being thrilled with the ultimate
in careless sophiStication-who
spurned jobs that might pay a
regular weekly income. etc., etc.
Her poetry was pretty bad in
those days. She was offered
job with a publishing firm. She
frightened her belt, limited her
self to one meal a day, but
kept writing poetry. There came
days-few of us knew it-when
she very often went without that
one meal; but she kept on grind
ing out odeS to the stars that
are sad, the moon that signs, the
sea-waves that fling open their
moist, welcoming arms. And her
poetry improved. One day Miss
Crittenden discovered poet
could have a job and still not
stifle the great emotional urge
within her. She has been work
ing steadily since, eating steadily
and turning out the finest
poems of the day. In the opinion
of a low-brow gent who used to
write poetry himself, she ranks
high among the few outstanding
women poets Of America.

POSTAL ODDITIES
BY TRAPP

Uncle Sam has his heroes in peace
as well as war. Records of bravery
and of heroism equal to the deeds
of daring performed by those patriots
who have faced the shot and shell of
an enemy country are not lacking
among the employees of the United
States postal system While hardships
encountered and the loss of life are
not SO great as those of actual war
fare, nevertheless they bear mute tes-
timony of the valiant services render
ed by these faithful servants of the
American people. We refer to the
men who carry the mail on the rural
and star routes. To the city dweller
a reference to the mailman brings a
picture to mind of graycoated car
rier who delivers his letters and pack
ages unhampered to any great extent
by wind or weather But the denizen
of the rural districts thinks of him as
the driver of dogsled or horse drawn
vehicle or of motorcar whose arrival
is marked as an event in the daily
life of the occupant of the far places,
putting him as it does in touch with
the outside world of his fellowmen.

Powerful Labor
Unions Now Needed

Brevard, N. C.-The tenth session
of the Southern Summer School, which
has been in session at Camp Illahee
since July 2, is attracting wide atten-
ton, especially in labor circles. Thirty
women workers from nine Southern
States are in attendance, and eighty
per cent of them are members of
trade unions. The program has al
ready led to considerable publicity
for the presentation of problems
which at~the moment are considered
to be of paramount Importance, as
for example when Jean Collier Brown,
public information assistant Of the
Women's Bureau of the United States
Department of Labor stressed the
need for strong workers organiza-
tions, which she declared were neces-
sary in order to back up even the best
