Chapter Five
Go To Sleep!'

KENT MURDOCH neaved
sigh of relief and grinned.
Not that he had done anything
out of line. but it was sometimes
hard to explain such things and
he hadn't known quite how Joyce
would take it. At first that is.
With Hestor staying in town for
two or three months. it was like
ly that Joyce would have to meet
her some time. Still
There's one other thing" he
said. "She's throwing a cocktail
party tomorrow afternoon"
"Oh?"
"Dean Thorndike will be there
his outfit handles some of her
investments. YOU knoW-and that
will mean Ward Allen and Della
probably. and some others. She
wants to meet YOU"
"And what did YOU tell her?"
IT told her | didn't know"
But why Kent? OF course
we'll go I'm dying to see her"
Murdoch blinked an0. unable
to detect ANYTHING spurious in
this spontaneity. decided there
was still lot he didn't know
about women.
"Okay." he said. 'T'l call her in
the morning.
He watched her slip out of her
negligee as he wound his watch.
and saw that she wore one of his
favorite nightgoWns. a dark blue
creation with WIDE shoulder
straps and wards of skirt. Briefly.
with elbows up. she gave fnal
shake to ashblond hair that es-
capped straightness bv the merest
trace of a natural wave and had
a two-tone effect where the sun
had bleached it around the edges:
then she kicked off her mules and
looked over at him. slim and
straight and vital. with lovely.
rounded BODY and curves that
were firm and clean in line.
He took note of all these things
before he turned out the light be-
cause it was inevitable that he
make comparisons tonight. Just as
1t was inevitable that he think of
Hestor as he lay there staring up
through the darkness.
His surprise at hearing her
voice was as nothing compared
to his surprise at seeing her. II
did not seem possible that she
could be the same person he had
once married. It had been an i'm
pulsive step. that marriage. with
Hestor right out of the chorus of
a musical comedy road-show that
had closed IN town.
Worried
"KENT."
IN Joyce's voice startled him
and he wondered how long he
had been thinking and whether
he should pretend he was asleep.
Eyes" he said finally.
I'm worried about Della and
Ward"
Worried? Why?"
Della told me Ward left Ca
ragua because of some trouble.
HeStor would know about it.
wouldn't she? And that man
Clarke-if you could have seen
Wards face when he looked up
and saw him standing there. And
afterwards-it frightened me-"
Murdoch grunted sleepily.
'You're imagining things, aren't
your"
II hope So" That was all Joyce
said for quite while and he
thought she had finished until she
said: ut would be just too awful
if anything broke them up.
They're so sweet together. Wards
a changed man since he met her.
He was never really anything but
a playboy until Della came along.

Mrs. Flesher will soon appoint
committees in the county to aid her
and will also choose a vlce-chair-
man as her chief assistant in a pro-
gram of raising money for the Navy
Citizens Relief Organization. In
listing instructions to Mrs. Flesher.
Mr.. Markham pointed out that the
programs must be of the type II
which people get full measure of
entertainment for the money spent.
Mr.. Markham also pointed out
that the organization is purely relief
and receives no grants to help sup
port it. THE particular objects and
business of the Society are to col
lect funds and provide relief for
dependent widows, minor orphan
children and mothers of deceased Of
ficers and enlisted men of the regu-
lar Navy and Marine Corps of the
u. S., to aid in securing employ
ment for such widows and moth
ers. and in the education of such
orphan children quoted Mr.. Mark
ham.
The Navy Relief Society has al
ways been self-sustaining up to the
Peat Harbor attack when 1897
men were lost and hundreds more
wounded. This caused such drain
on the funds of the Society that
the group found it necessary to call
for civilian aid.

Fears Form Labor
Shortage During

It has been said that food short
age was the main cause Of Bataan's

shortage of farm labor.
The board is broadcasting an
urgent request through the columns

able man-poWer registered with M.
K. Kedzie at the federal employ
ment office. in the court house,

shortage in farm labor, says the
board. 1t is said there is one applica-
ton on file in Eureka after two
months period of asking for farm
labor registration.
The county war board held 9
meeting in Eureka last Thursday

lens. One was the scrap iron prof.
/ ect. It is said that 30 tons of scrap
have been signed up that is on Lin

CARD OF THANKS

considerate ways during our sor-
row in the recent loss of our be-
loved sister, we extend our thanks
and appreciation.

is often, | think of an English
lad who died twenty and more
years ago. He conquered fear.
He lost his life, but even in the
dying, left a source Of strength
to others. He was a timid child,
but he was taught to fight fear.
His sister told me how he would
be the first to do the daring
things, because he was afraid.
He feared the dark, SO he always
went first. He feared horses, so
he put his pony at the stiffest
jumps. He would just say, "I'm
the one that's afraid, so I'll do
it" He hated war, suffering,
blood, SO he went out with the
"Old Contemptibles" and was
killed in the Mons retreat, stay
ing behind with a wounded SOL
der. But he still lives. His broth
er, when praised for his own
courage, would only say, Il could
not let Noel down, and | was
afraid"
1t is that kind of courage we
need today. The courage that
will enable US to say, 81 dread
what is coming, but / can face
it." Fear is never half so bad
when you walk up to it.

cash paid to young people en-
ployed in industry.
81 contend that organized edu
cation should be regarded as
necessity and not as a luxury.
This is obviously true even if
education is viewed merely as
process of cultural transmission,
of teaching to boys and girls GER
tain knowiedges and skills requir-
ed to maintain our kind of civili-
zation or society. If this pro-
cess is interrupted or impaired,
the inevitable result is a dograda-
ton of our cultural standards. To
embark upon sach course would
be dangerous to our democracy.
But we must keep clearly in
mind that education is more than
a proc, IS Of cultural transmits
sion. 1t is also process of
character building. 1t makes
people. We have become so ac-
customed to the school, morrow
er, that we do not realize how
much of the time, energy, and
thought of the young it absorbs.
In the measure that it's domin-
ion is weakened a void is created
in the lives of children-a void
that almost certainly will be fill
ed with interests and activities
inferior in social utility and eth
ical quality. The reduction of the

SUGGESTS We Take Lessons From Britain

school program means, not simply
less education, but more mis-edu-
cation. This is precisely what
the social workers of Britain
have discovered.
The British experience also
demonstrates something that
should require no demonstration
to any thoughtful mind. 1t dem
onstrates that from the stand
point of juvenile crime and de-
linquency, the impairment of ed
ucational opportunities is far
more serious in wartime than in
peace. During war, and particu-
larly during modern war with
its total pattern, the conditions
of life are highly abnormal. The
population becomes unusually
mobile, the structure and dis
tribution of industry change,
both men and women enter the
armed forces, home and COM
munity life become somewhat
disorganized, the hopes and fears
the stresses and strains attend
ing the struggle are felt even in
the cradle. In such times the
children of the nation are pecul-
iarly in need of intelligent and
sympathetic care and instruction.
The program of the school
should be extended during the
war.

William II. Stoneman reports
that social workers are greatly
alarmed over the rapid rise of
juvenile crime and delinquency.
He then sets down the following
four "don'ts" derived from Bri
tish experience.
|. Don't close schools any
where if you can help it. Don't
call up school teachers for serv-
ice or let them enlist; expand in
stead of cutting down on normal
educational facilities.
:. Don't close any clubs or 9th
er recreation centers. Increase
activities Of such organizations
as YMCA, YWCA, and all set-
Elements and Fairgrounds. A good
Boy Scout or IMCA leader or a
good playground supervisor can
do more for his country by stick
ing to his job than by trying to
learn to fire a rifle.
3. Avoid the breakup Of FAM
lies by conscriptin9 fathers for
military service or mothers for
industry. If it is necessary to
conscript them or to allow them
to enlist, be sure that every child
has some responsible relation or
friend to care for him.
4. Don't throw an army of
youngsters into industry any old
way, and do limit the amount of

George :. Counts, president
of the American Federation of
Teachers, known to many
Newark educators, has written
an article which appears in
the March, 1912, publication,
The American Teacher" 1t
has been suggested that it be
reprinted in the Newark Lea
der. The article follows:
ed. Note: The Newark Leader
does not necessarily agree or dis
agree with the thoughts con-
vevad in the following article.)
"The American people, as they
organize for war, should strive
to avoid the mistakes and learn
from the experiences Of those
nations that have preceded them
in the struggle. This principle
applies not only to the actual
Waging Of war, bat also to the
conduct Of community life. 1t
applies to the administration Of
public education.

tain of serious mistakes regard
