 Kane was asking about you I told him you'd probably drop in. He want to thank you for saving his life"
 But Alan did not stop at Eric Kane's room in the hospital. He told himself, when the thought occurred to him, that it was because he had little time or opportunity to visit this wing of the hospital, and be- sides, he said, he had turned the case oyer to Farrell and he had no more to do with it. But the real rea- son was that he was afraid-afraid of the embarrassment the grateful mans thanks might cause him. If anyone had done any saving of life, the honor belonged to Far rell, not to him. Alan had found the man, brought him to the hos pital = that was true = but anyone would have done that. Perhaps if Alan could have looked into the future he might have considered, leaving Eric Kane to die in the snow,
 It was no wonder that he was surprised, two evenings later to find 8 stranger knocking at his door.
 Come in, come in," Alan said as he opened the door.

Mortified by Wor,
 He Founded Red Cross 6

Ae Founded Red Cross 6,
 A QUIET Swiss youth stood on
 '~ the battlefield of Solferino in Lombardy on a hot June day in 1859. He saw the Austrians clash
 with the troops under Napoleon HI and his Italian ally, King Vic- tor Emmanuel. The carnage was staggering: the Austrians lost 2O,- 900 men, the allies 18,000. Thou- sands were wounded.
 Touched by the bloody scene, Dunant helped gather the wound ed, ministered to their aid. It was an experience he was never to forget. He vowed then that something ought to be done for the victims of war.
 Three years later Dunant told his story to the world in a small but weighty book, "A Souvenir of Solferino." It won instantaneous notice and out of it developed the humanitarian Red Cross: In a few years activities of this organ ization were to spread around the world.
 But ironically enough Dunant was to experience much suffering himself. At the height of his work, he passed into 20 years of oblivion. He was reported dead. Then a writer found the old man living on three francs a day, se- cluded in a barren room. He had spent his fortune on humanity and humanity had forgotten him.
 The name of Dunant was hailed again. He was given the ribbons and prizes, a pension, and he shared in the Nobel Peace Prize. He died finally in 1910, after turn- ing his last cent over to the Red Cross. The humanitarian is shown here on a 1928 Swiss stamp, hon. bring the tooth anniversary of his birth.

CHAPTER V

Automatically, Alan had his gloves and was reaching for the mans wrist. The pulse was faint = very faint. Alan figured quickly. The car had passed him before 8 and it was now after 5. Nine hours, unconscious in that blizzard. No man could live. Even if he had escaped injury when the car overturned, he should have frozen to death.
 The hum of the electric heater, still running, answered one of Alan's unspoken questions. But there was no time for delay. This man must be taken to a hospital, at once. Half dragging, half carry ing his heavy burden, Alan got the man up the embankment and into his own warm car. There was a chance, but even minutes would count now.
 Prices farm flashed by. Pity Price hadn't seen that wreck. Price had probably gone to bed as soon as he saw Alan safely by. And there had been no one else on the highway. If the man had not been hurt in the wreck, he might have made his way through the storm to the farmhouse. But 8 stranger wouldn't have known the house was there.
 An interne and a sleepy orderly answered his ring at the ambu- lance entrance of the hospital.
 Get that man upstairs, quick ly." Alan ordered curtly. Get him out of those clothes - Lord knows he has on plenty get stimulants. We'll have to work if we're going to save him."
 As the two men unloaded his charge from his car and onto a cart, Alan hurried up the stairs Farrel lmet him in the doctors office.
 "Just saw you drive in, Alan You didn't have any trouble?" Farrells voice betrayed his con- cern.
 "No, no trouble at Carroll's. That was easy. Ran into a young fellow in wrecked car. Evil dently been there most of the night. He's half, or completely frozen. But he's still alive"
 "Was he hurt in the accident?"
 Can't tell, yet. He was so bundled up and I didn't want to risk losing any time getting him here. He has a chance, but it's not a very big one, I'm afraid"
 'Know who he is?"
 "Never saw him before, or his car either, until he almost hit me head on as was driving out last night. I wondered then if he'd make the turn safely - and he

Big Year Is Forecast
For Plumbing Industry

With an expected increase in
sales of about 20 per cent in 1899,
the. year is expected to be the best
for the plumbing and heating in
dustries since 1929, according to
George E. Hoffman, president Of the
Plumbing and Heating Industries
Bureau.
"The accelerating volume of resi-
dental construction will account
for a large part Of the increase" Z"
Mr.. Hoffman said. "The trend of
residential construction has been
upward since July, 1898, with the
result that current inventories Of
boilers, radiators, bathtubs, sinks,
pipe, valves, fittings, and all plumb
ing and heating material are low.
"Modernization Of residential,
commercial, industrial, institutional,
and educational buildings will con-
tinue in 1889, as in 1898 and 1887,

small home was selected for the
first model because it is the size

Building construction in the near

in 1898 showed q large gain over,
1887, reaching a total valuation Of
$22, 2,718, ,102 for Arlington County and
Alexandria, in Virginia, and the
metropolitan sections of Montgom-

Maryland. This figure does not in

The 1888 gain over the previous
year in the nearby areas is in ex-
cess Of $3,5O0,O00. Last year the
private building valuation for the
three counties and Alexandria was
$19,148,072. This increase in private
construction volume in outlying Sec

HEART THROBS

Robert Burdett, in a talk to
young men, said, Get away from
the crowd for a while and think.
Stand on one side and let the world
run by, while you get acquainted
with yourself and see what kind
of fellow you are. Ask yourself
hard questions about yourself.
Ascertain, from original sources,
If you are really the manner of
man you say you are, and if you
are always honest, if you always
tell the square, perfect truth in
business details, if you life is as
good and upright at eleven o'clock
at night as it is at noon, if YOU
are as good a temperance man on
fishing excursion as you are on
Sunday School picnic, if you are
as good when you go to the city
as you are at home, if, in short,
you are really the sort of man
your father hopes you are and
your sweetheart believes you to be.
Get on intimate terms with YOUR
self, my boy, and, believe me, ev-
cry time you come out of one of
those private interviews you will
be stronger, better, purer man.
Don't forget this and it will do
you good"

HERE'S MORE ABOUT
A. PHILIP RANDOLPH

Continued on Page Two)
bribery and betrayal can be dis
cerned in many of the relations of
capital and labor, it is inspiring to
know that not a hint of suspicion
has ever been cast on the leader
ship of the Brotherhood of Sleep
ing Car Porters.
A. Philip Randolph came into
the public eye long before the or
ganization of the Brotherhood of
Sleeping Car Porters. AS editor
of the Messenger Magazine he
championed the cause of organized
labor. Whatever may be said of
the Messenger, this much is true,
that its criticism of the philosophy
of Negro leadership had a salutary
effect since it caused that leader
ship to take stock and to evaluate
its effectiveness in the light of the
actual economic and social condi-
ton of the Negro people. More
than that Randolph, with the late
Hubert Harrison, Abram Harris.
George Schuyler and others, rid
died characteristics with pitiless
logic that leveled for all time the
formidabl estructure of racial
myth.
There are few speakers on the
public platform who can match
the eloquence of A. Philip Ran
dolph; none can surpass him. Tire
less, he has driven his frail body
to the breaking point; fearless, he
has scorned threats of physical
violence; honest, he has spurned
the gold that might have made him
affluent. He has all the qualities
of a great leader and that is what
A. Philip Randolph is.--E.A.C.
