"I'll tell you who it was, Hunt"

Dwight Nichols sat back with an
air of relief, picked up a cigarette
and lighted it, and filled his lungs
with smoke. Margaret settled into
her chair with little sigh. 1 looked
at Reed Barton. He was like a man
bewildered. Suddenly he became
aware that we all were staring.
George Rumble is a liar!" he
said quietly.
There was little or nothing left to
be logged out into the open that
night. For a time Huntoon Rogers
continued to explore skillfully into
the hidden angles of what already
had been revealed. At length Elsa
interrupted.
"We're wasting the evening,
Hunt" she said, getting to her feet
and imploring him with her eyes to
quit and let us go outside. For from
out of doors came the sound of mu-
sic, OF dancing feet, of voices lifted
in song. The members of the house

"All right, Elsa" Rogers yielded

"Of course" Sam Chatfield
agreed. "And l thank you, Mr.. Rog-

time l can be of service to you,
please command me-"
Rogers reply was lost in the gen.
eral movement of the group to the
scene of the festivities in the open
courtyard just beyond the patio wall
where a low platform had been
built over hollow jars to magnify
the sound of the nimble feet and
clicking heels.

man, have let this go on, glad that
he could find so much relaxation
and amusement. But now things
are getting bad at home; orderly
housekeeping in trailer, with wash
ing and toilet facilities at dis
lance, is impossible. Until my dar-
ling little Bruce can have an op-
Grafton, he will be lame; the baby
is of course exacting, still at the
formula and didy-wash stage. l get
tired, rumpled, discouraged, lonely;
the injustice of the whole situation
inks me into occasional ill-temper.
And Fred is either silent, absent
minded, or cross and critical. There
does seem to be queer irony in
the fact that now that so many of
us could afford better living, we
can't find it. Can you suggest some
way in which 1 can bring my hus-
band to sense of the unfairness
of demanding so much of me, and
wandering off himself to comfort,

Marriage Suffers During War.
My dear Ethel. say in reply, the
cost of war isn't paid entirely in
precious lives and expensive guns.
So tremendous a world upset as this
demoralizes us, every one, tears all
our lives up by the roots, skaters
our lifelong ideals of honor and de-
cency. On all sides there are
outbreaks of immortality; racial
troubles that have slept for almost
century; young blood recognizing no
authority and obeying no law.
And on all sides, also, thank God,
are titanic efforts to stem this tide
of lawlessness. Fine men and wom-
en- everywhere are giving their time
and their money and their most ear
nest effort to get at the sources of
criminal outbreaks, to protect youth,
to improve living conditions, to safe
guard marriage.
You must put yourself in line with
these workers. You must overlook
the shameful facts that the woman
you call Rose is deliberately break
ing up your marriage, evidently in
idle fun, and that Fred has tenn
porarily forgotten that he promised
to stand by you no matter what con-
ditions arose in your welded life to-
gether. Fred is excited, tired, daz-
zled by novelty and flattery. Like
some of the European travellers of
yesterday, he has left his code be-
hind him: he has lost the guiding
strings of home, neighbors, customs,
self-respect. His new work, his big
salary, his right to enter Roses
handsome home - all these have
gone to his head.
But this is only a phase. Do the
best you can to weather it; save
what money you can in solid gov
eminent bonds; wait for saner times
as we all must. No life is untouched
by today's holocaust; if you can keep
yours serene and normal, you will
emerge from these times somewhat
ahead of the rest.

busting Gold Coins Was
Racket in the Early Days

Because gold as it comes from
the mines is somewhat soft, it was
not at all uncommon for gold coins
or nuggets of the early days to
wear down in actual value. "Dust-
ing gold" also became racket.
In Chinatown. San Francisco, ell
derby Chinese men with infinite
patience sat by days shaking sacks
of gold coins over pan. Gold dust
rubbed off on sacks and filtered
through, and this was salvaged for
resale at the mints. Coins were
then passed on at their full
marked value. Today hardening
alloys are added to gold.

\" I1lOIe SlIlple, Olu-ldSIl-
W toned morality in this
world of ours, which of course
is simply to say that we need
more of God; more faith, more
charity, more decency, more
goodness. Or, to use very old
fashioned words indeed, more
sanctifying grace.
Grace! What a beautiful old
word that is. Grace to be strong
and good, helpful and hopeful,
firm in holding to our own high
ideals. "Plain living and high
thinking are no more" Words
worth said a hundred years ago.
One wonders what he would
have said today!
If we know that men and women
are honestly trying to be better
themselves, and make the world
better place, it is easy to have deal
ings with them. They keep their
promises, we keep ours. They bring
to any difficulty, any problem, true
desire to solve it according to the
laws of justice. They make mis-
takes; we all do. But the mistakes
of honest persons are much less
dangerous than the success of dis
honest ones.
Ethel Mayors writes me from
trailer camp situated near one of
our largest ship-building plants.
Ethel is 81; she has been married
for seven years. This is her prob
lem.
Trailer Life a Struggle.
1.-TWO years ago." says her letter,
81 was a happy wife, living mod
estly in little home we owned, in
Cleveland. Fred's salary ranged
about $3.50 month, which was plen-
ty for me, and l kept a nice home,
free of debt. Then came the war
and Fred was sent here, his salary
jumped to anything between $500
and $500 week. Our second little
boy was born seven months ago;
my oldest is six, a bright and love-
able boy, but crippled; he cannot
walk. Conditions here are difficult;
there being no house available we
live in our trailer; four of US in
two small rooms. Fred sleeps in a
comfortable arrangement in the car,
and l manage both children in the
trailer, but on hot nights, what
with the racket all about us, talk,
-, Uiotro1oe
times quarrels, we don't get good
rest. Marketing is hard, too; l wheel
the baby to the shops, stand in line,
bargain and wait. Even if we leave
a list the day before we have to
wait our turn; clerks are over
worked and unfamiliar with the
stock, and altogether this whole
summer has been struggle for me.
But that isn't the worst In the
suburban town near us there are
some beautiful homes, and in one
of the most beautiful there is wom-
an whose husband is an army cap
tain, over in Africa somewhere, and
who has plenty of money and leisure
She is very hospitable to the defense
plant men, and my husband often
goes there with the other boys. They
play cards, games and have a regu-
lar spread at 10 o'clock every night;
cold meats and salads and drinks;
of course our crowded camp has
nothing to offer in comparison to it.
My husband denies that he has fallen
in love with this woman, whom l
will call Rose, but he is often there
at times when the crowd isn't, has
more than once occupied her spare
room when he was late or tired, and
tells me he enjoys the big cool show
ers, fine linen, and quiet Rose is
about IS; my husband year or two
younger.
