3. Popular estimates that 10000 spies are on the job in Europe to- day are melodramatic exaggera- tions. The arms race among elbow to-elbow nations has greatly in- creased espionage activity but nine out of every 10 so-called spies are amateurs whose reports are of scant value if not downright un- dependable.
 !. 4. The operations of a capable espionage agent rarely come to public attention Few of them are linked with a military organization because such utilization would make their detection easier and because establishment of such connection would discredit the military or ganization involved.
 5. Women operatives may give romantic touch to the secret service but most espionage agencies do not rate women's services. in war or peace, in the class with those of proficient men. Beautiful women sometimes are effective trap pers of smitten officers but scarcely one out of 100 officers is gullible enough to be thus duped by women.

 Other bombs struck in the newest section of the city which includes many residential quarters.
 A high explosive bomb dropped from low flying Insurgent bomber struck the largest and most luxur- ious h otel in Barcelona, which houses many foreigners. Apparent ly none within the structure were hurt, but the lavishly decorated ballroom where many tea dances are held, was left shambles ot shattered murals and crumbleo masonry.

BAD NEWS

The bureau publishes each month a News Letter containing informal notes from employees out in the field, together with personnel re- ports. Most dreadful section in the News Letter is page devoted to Disciplinary Action"
 Almost every month several of the lads who take in the taxes are popped off for trifling with Uncle Sam's money. Quite fair number are caught hazing taxpayers. Re- peatedly the News Letter records that one or two or three agents were separated from the service for soliciting and accepting bribes from nervous taxpayers.
 Offsetting that was this letter from a breezy citizen:
 One question I got great laugh out of was, Were you during the taxable year supporting in your household one or more persons closely related to you?' Boy, that's a honey. Say, MT.

Elks B; KrauSe IT
 Firemen 39; Miners 34

That first game last night be- tween the Lodgemen and the Con- creters is difficult to comment on but the score perhaps talks for itself.
 In the first place, Krause's, al ready weakened team since Leonard Bishop left town, is weak ened definitely by the absence of Eddie Hoch, who is working. Hoch has been the key man to Krause offense and defense, and with out him, Krause was lost.
 And as for the Elks and their end of the score, it's interesting to note that Gil DeVault, eX-high school star here, potted 36 points in field goals and two in free tcsses, the majority of the markers at short range under the basket.
 Enough said. It would be nice to see the Elks and such accuracy against one of the leading teams Of the loop.

has improved the quality of almost every thing you serve on your table. It IS interest," ing to see how important part advertising plays in stimulating this progress.
 Every housewife over forty remembers the old-fashioned grocery store where her mother bought the family food, much of 1t scooped out of open bins and barrels, where it was exposed to dirt and smells. The cat Tn the cracker barrel was no fairy tale in those days but the flies really got first chance at everything. All this is changed now. Modern food stores are models of cleanliness. Their neatly arranged counters and shelves are lined with attractive packages, cans, and bot ties of well-prepared foods
 Not only are these processed foods clean and attractive. They also save many weary hours of kitchen labor for every housewife. Perfectly baked bread wrapped in wax paper, fresh ground coffee in cans, ready-cooked breakfast foods mixed pancake flour, canned fruits and vegetables of every conceivable variety A total of 125, ,000,0 tons of pack aged and processed foods was produced in this country in 1885. A ton for every man, woman, and child!
 This great change has been brought about by modern merchandising methods. The demands of up-to-date merchandising reach back into the food factories and con- trol the processing and packaging. Advertis- ing is the most compelling force in the whole system, forcing manufacturers to devote every resource to giving the consumer better values in quality, safety, and convenience.
 Advertising is the housewife's friend and helpmate.

Tomorrow morning 30,000,000 bottles of milk will be placed on the doorsteps of Am erican homes The milk will be clean, pure and safe from contamination Special milk trains will serve the large cities, rushing the precious fluid at express speed direct from cows to customers. In no other land do con- sumers enjoy such wonderful milk dlstrlbu- tion system as we have in this country. In Europe, milkmen still dip milk from their cans into the open containers of householders.
 Only generation ago. our own milk SUD- ply was insanitary and the source of much disease Bacteria in milk took staggering death toll among babies. Since then mar yelous change has come about. Today the dairyng industry is almost miracle of cleanliness and rigid sanitation. In the mod ern dairy, every piece of equipment is taken apart scrubbed, and completely sterillzed twice every day-an eight-hour job. This scrupulous care saves the lives of thousands of babies every year.
 Besides making this important food safe for babies and grOwn-ups, the milk industry has conducted a widespread educational campaign through advertising, to make bet ter known the great health value of drinking milk As result the public now consumes one-third more milk per capita. The use of cheese and other milk products has also been sharply increased by advertising. The dairy ing industry now provides farmers with one- fifth of their total income, and is actually the biggest industry in the United States.
 This development of the country's milk industry is an educational story. It illustrates the progress in food merchandising, which

half opened with the Miners talk ing a 1877 lead at the quarter and a 17-l3 lead at the half way post, working smoothly and shooting well.
 After rest between halves, the Bremen came out with drive and fire they certainly did not have in the first half and a surprised Miners five found themselves on the short end of a 27-17 score at the third quarters end.
 Desperately trying to close up in the last quarter, thv Miners showed more of the sort of basket ball they played in the first quar- ter and gained a few points, but fell short when the last horn was sounded.
 Elmer Lindstrom was high man with 14 points, but the two boys who turned in the snappiest games were two guards.
 Some Shooter
 Dutch" Behrends, going in early as a substitute in the Bremen lineup, played a wild-driving ball hawking game and shot from the sidelines with sweet timing for ten points.
 Sammy Nelson, low-slung and high-geared Miner guard, was han dicspped by a finger burned with a blowtorch, but the injury seemed to only add speed to his play. Sam my broke up more Bremen passes than any man on his team and he did more than his part in carrying the ball into enemy ter ritory
 Referee Bud Foster let the boys rough it up little more last night than usual, and frankly it made a better spectators game.

lot where Hugh and other parents
sometimes sought and found their
young.
A scrambled, indiScriminate
game of ball was in lively prog
reSS on it now. Hugh stood and
watched. Another spectator
stopped beside him-a washed
looking boy in Knockers who
clutched the handle of a violin
case and looked with bitter long,
ing on the ball game. He remained
when Hugh started on.
An elevated tstion was near.
He needn't go back to the street
car line. He began to follow the
sidewalk that right-angled the lot.
An impulse moved him to zigzag
across it, Skirting the ball game.
The ground was soft and almost
wet. His feet sank at each step.
SMALL MEMORIES
He felt a curious shock. How
long since he'd been off pave
ments? There came quick,
vague sensation of memories being
released. Not poignant ones,
small ones, how it used to feel to
have fun doing something you
Wante,. to; of awkwardneSs, of
dreams, of tracking mud into the
house and swearing that the newly
come hole in your shoe had let
in no damp; of Saturdays roam
ing in the swamp, and Sundays
of hampered misery tempered by
ice cream.
These grubby kids who yelled
and could digest tenpenny nails,
dreams we're growing in them; and
the world of their fathers and
mothers would be the conqueror be-
fore whose strength whole compa-
MES of those dreams would fall.
1t was nearly dinner time when
he got home. He heard familiar
voices in the library and walked
in upon Tim and Hennie. sitting
on opposite sides of the fireplace.
They rose, and Tim, sober and de-
termined, stood back while Hennie
came quickly to shake hands.
Hugh led her back with him TO-
ward Tim. She dropped into a
corner of the big davenport oppo-
site Hugh'S chair. Tim rested
hand near her shoulder, as If that
nearness braced him. Otherwise
he did not move. They made Hugh
an old photograph OF
his father, just married, towering
stiffly protective above his de-
posed bride.
In Hennie's keen blue eyes, I'm.
der the fluff of bright hair, Hugh
read something new. She had a
look of quiet watchfulness; she
was a partner, ready if called upon.
Tim had made a beginning, had
said perhaps two words, when her
hand reached back to his and
stopped him. There was silence
for long moment. Then Hugh
said, 60 ahead and try it, you
two. The worst thing that can
happen to anybody is to be pre-
vented from trying what he really
wants to try. I'm not going to do
that to you"
What came into their faces
made him say hurriedly, in an odd
voice, Tim, better go tell Minna
we're entertaining a future mem
Der of the family at dinner to-
night"
