HOLMES
Love Leaves Ann Alone

unhappy. The Athens Club party had been just another evening, nothing more. When she remem- bered the same event with Paul she wondered what had become of the stardust and glamour. She had everything for which she had longed, family, social position, more clothes than she could wear, sense of absolute security.
 Recalling her old dreams, she laughed at them. Linen sheets, silk bed coverings, sterling silver and wedgewood china. Perhaps it was because they had come too easily that their importance had vanished. Perhaps the fun of hav- ing lovely things was working for them, striving, beating the bud- get,
 One day in midsummer Irene gave a luncheon on the terrace. Ann observed the girls specula- lively. They differed from her friends in Mrs. Toilets rooming house only in background and money. The types were identical.
 There was Geneva Weston, mysterious eyed, languorous girl with pale blond hair. She affected bizarre cigaret holders and moved with lazy grace. She had re- nounced family life and lived in her own apartment. The girls whispered that Geneva was most indiscreet - they hinted at mar ried man. She was another Flo rabelle, without Florabelle's ex- cuse for folly.
 Elissa Faber. was plump, she giggled and talked too much. She might have been a better dressed, better-groomed Clara. And the Campbell sisters = they skated ex- pertly over the thin social ice, in- credibly audacious, incredibly pop ular. Neddy and Teddy had held sway in the West Side taverns, the Campbell sisters led in the night clubs. -
 Ann noted another thing. As 1t had been on Murray street, these girls had but one aim and ambi- ton, a suitable marriage. Their expensive clothes and cultures, their mannerisms and clever pat ter, were but weapons with which they stalked their men. The luncheons and cocktail parties were merely time filters in which to gather force for the evenings struggle. Love, as 1t had been to the 10-cent store girls, was minor consideration. A husband was the thing.
 Love. In spirit Ann left the luncheon on the terrace. Why had it been given to her2 So strong, so cruel.

MT. Temple followed Ann to the door and put an effectionate arm about her. '"This means a lot to me, ; he said. "You see, loved Pete" He laughed blankly. Did someone say it's a small world? It took two thives and suitcase full of jewels to bring Pete's little girl home"
 There was mist of tears in Ann's eyes as she said, I'm so happy to be relative" She smiled. "Just the same, I'm pull lng this household out of the kinks. It's my job and I love it."
 DO as you like, my dear You're one of us. Call yourself Ann Temple, will you?"
 'I will" She opened the door, turning back MT. Temple"
 Better make it Uncle John."
 Uncle John - do you care if I fire the Plunket outfit?"
 Carer" he roared. "Ill help you kick 'em out"
 "Call on me if you get stuck" Blake offered.
 Ann got rid of the servants with out too much difficulty. A few signi- flcant hints that the police would like to know of their deeds, turned the trick. Ann prepared and served the dinner that night. Irene tried to help, unsuccessfully. The next day Ann interviewed applicants and f1ll- ed the positions, eliminating one of the maids. In weeks time the machinery of the household was moving without a hitch.
 Irene turned the roll of silver to Ann's room. "These spoons are lovely" she said. Aren't you glad they're not engraved. Your initial is different now" She was delighted over the turn of events.
 Ann was equally pleased. "1sn't 1t wonderful, Irene?"

OPPORTUNITY

An opportunity for farmers is at
band. The Carnation Company in open
ing its plant next Monday, brings to
this community the chance for i'm
provement in conditions.
It will provide a pay roll to farmers
twice each month which will in turn
help business men all over the tri-
state area. There is no limit to the
improvement. The Cornation Company
is ready to extend its plant into a
condensery as soon as the farm peo-
pie enlarge their herds and supply
more milk.
The Republican feels that the es-
Enlistment of the plant here will be
of lasting benefit to company and
farmer alike.
It's real chance for Oakland and
Garrett County to move forward.

HOOVER'S MISTAKES"

CAS- printed in Wallace, Ida, Miner,
and Los Angeles Times)
An inspired piece from one of the
New Deal propagandists says Hoover
was a complete failure"
So he was.
He failed in lot of things.
He failed to draw out his salary of
$4,000 year while he was President,
turning it all back into the Treasury.
He failed to have his sons organize in
surance company firms to write insur-
ance on government enterprises. He
built Rapidan resort for fishing and
recreation and gave it to the Govern
ment. None of his sons went racing
through the divorce courts to the disil-
lusionment of the public. He never
bundled up lot of government doc
uments to sell as a book to the faith
full at a huge profit to himself and he
never sold himself into political slav-
cry to labor organization for $780,
600 campaign fund. He gathered a
marvellous collection of war stuff and
built a museum for it, but failed to
ask Congress to pay the bill-he paid
it himself.
He did not preach and promite class
hatred and he did not try to pack
the Supreme Court. He did not pillow
up every third row of cotton and he
did not promise the American people
one thing while at the very same mo-
ment doing everything to accomplish
the directly opposite result
He did not ask Congress to assess
the taxpayers 81 ,000,0 100000 every
time someone shot off firecracker in
Europe and he did not go on Fishing
trips on Government warships accom-
panied by fleet of destroyers. Neither
did he kill off all the farmers little
pigs or encourage the importation of
Argentine beef. In fact there were d
lot Of foolish things that Hoover didn't
do that some other people have done.
There are a lot of constructive things
he could have done if he had not had
the opposition of a Democratic Con-
gress, but anyway he did not leave
the American people $45,O00,OOO,O0O in
debt.
Mrs. Hoover never made speeches
or raced hither and yon on unimpor-
tant matters. She never wrote silly
drivel on her everyday life and sold it
to the newspapers and she never sold
soap over the radio. Her only public
appearance was as an honorary mem
Der of the Girl Scouts of America.
She never invited Communist youth to
the White House as her guests.
The Hoover family seems to have
made failure Of about everything
that goes nowadays.
