Virginia shore of the Potomac, while
Mr.. and Mrs. Raymond z. Henle
gave a f1ag-raising celebration at

Mr.. and Mrs. Stanley had planned
an al freSco fete, but had to move
onto the wide, screened porch, the
200 or more guests also enjoying
the spacious drawing rooms. The
dampneSS of the weather, however,
had no effect on the gayety of the
party, and the informality of the
invitations was carried out by the
hosts through the afternoon. Young
SnoWden Stanley, 13-year-old son of
the house, printed the invitations for
his parents, which read: Jumping

TIPS to
TRIM FLOWER GARDEN

THERE is much value in keep

Wise gardeners pick bouquets of
favorite ANNALS like Marigold,
Zinnia, Petunia, Sweet Peas and
Snapdragon with systematic regu-
larity, for the picking promotes
continued blooming.
Periodic trimming is not best for
such small, low-growing edging
flowers as Alyssum. A complete
cutting, however, will benefit this
type of plant. This treatment may
be applied to Ageratum, Linaria,

Desperate Feud

The Tewksbury-Graham feud,
which ragged in ella county, Ari-
iona, between 1887 and 1892, was
the most desperate fight of it's
kind in the history of the West.
Starting with dispute over stolen
cattle, it quickly involved all the
men and boys in three large fami-
lies and numerous friends, all of
whom, with one exception, were
killed. In some of their battles as
many as 20 men fought on a side.

NWO men, both in the early
thirties, were going home
- in the subway last night. 1t
was bleak dreary night, streets
were dark and slippery with
slush and the underground train
was filled with weary homego-
ers, who occupied seats or hung
on straps with the tired express
sions of men and women whose
day had been dull and hard.
One man was Tom Smith, who
rents four rooms in the Bronx
for $32 a month. A parlor and
kitchen on the street; two bed
rooms on air-shafts. Bathroom,
some heat, hot water included.
The Smiths have one little girl,
Eileen, who is 8.
Jean Smith is pretty, nervous, dis
satisfied. She is tired Of cooking for
Tom, caring for him and Eileen,
and doing without furs, trips, down
town meals, theaters. She lives by a
jealous and minute comparison Of
her affairs with those of her friends;
she has no code and no standards of
her own. If some woman friend

Cold Reception.
When Tom gets home she is often
lying down reading. Or perhaps the
house is cluttered from a bridge aft
ernoon; the air thick with cigarette
smoke, the women finishing the last
rubber. A daintily wrapped prize
goes to somebody, the guests depart
with many kisses and thanks, and
Jean YEARLY begins to straighten up
the room. Tom has cold mutton,
beets, sandwiches and cellars for
supper, good enough meal if Jean
had any appetite or any interest in
1t. To his kindly inquiries she re-
spends vaguely; she isn't disagree
able, but she simply doesn't care
what Tom eats or feels or says or
wants any more. Half the time her
answer to his remarks is "What?"
If things are uncomfortable for
Tom he accepts them in silence.
Any criticism rouses Jean to an
angry summary of the situation. She
has given Tom Smith the best years
of her life! She has drudged along
in this rotten little place, when Ethel
has moved into those new flats and
Glad and Billy are buying a house.
