Consider for a moment nearly half of those men , . ho heard the call to defend the little island of Cuba and the hilippire archiplelago against the tyrannical rule of Spain, ive marched on. That h the toll of the enemy whojn even ic bravest of hearts cannot vanquish. Death is the one .incunquerable enemy of mankind either soldier or civilian. Cut, as state department officers of the Spanish American War veterans organization said at the memorial service in the library park last night, it is not a time to mown the passing of these comrades but to pay tribute to their bravery and their sacrifice. Of those thousands who answered the call of their country issued by President McKinley in 1898, not one was : compelled to enter the army. Every man was a volunteer -fighting not for defense of country, not for territorial vafii, not for prestige or glory, but for a mighty principle. ! Xhaf principle was the preservation of the rights of small nations and weak peoples against the diabolical persecution and exploitation of greedy and corrupt powers. They were patriots. They believed in patriotism. They laid down their lives to prove that they were patriots. They faced the gunfire of the sons of Spain they faced the hard- ships in that tropical island to demonstrate that patrio- . tism lived. How aliout tno patriotism of today? Do we honor the . old flag for which these men died? Today their living com- rades carried the greatest flag in the world down Jackson Street and scores of men stood along the street WITHOUT REMOVING THEIR HATS! It was not an unusual oc currence. At any such event where the colors pass by you maj witness the same thing. It is shameful, almost criminal, that such a thing should happen. . :; They fought for the constitution of the United States, .for law, for the sanctity of the nation and their homes. To rday our nation is showing a tragic disregard for the con stitution, particularly tho eighteenth amendment which is ; fiist as much a part of that immortal document as its pre amble. Today, all over this country, we are seeing evi dence of utter disregard tor law and order. Today we see the ling of our nation pass by without so much as doffing our hats. Is patriotism dying? It is our duty before God to sic to it that patriotism .shall, not die. " it is becauso tlicy are real, red-blooded American "Pal riots that wo welcome to Roseburg the Spanish-American War veterans and auxiliary members from all over the jstato. It is becauso they did the greatest thing a man can do lor his fellow man lay down his life for another that we (uuse to honor the dead of these legions. ; Welcome, sportsmen! We hereby cast our vote for -bigger and better fish (hat are not afraid to bite. Any other little thing like that which could be arranged would ..also be appreciated.

Your letter form, too, is good, except the ab breviation of the state in your heading. 'Presenting a Gift DEAR MKS. BEECKMAN: 1. Will you please tell me how to address a wedding card to a friend?

EACH gift should be wrapped and sent separately, your gift in one package and your mother s gift in another. The gift is usual ly sent from the shop in which it Is purchased, though this is, of course not necessary. The visiting-card of the sender is enclosed with the gift, and usually nothing is written on the card. However, if you wish to write a message on your card, or on a plain white card, if you are not using your visiting-card, write something like this: "Best wishes for your happiness always," or WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE Philip Edison is host at a night club party to his just-recently-di-vorce are to be married. When sportsman and Don Juan. -Edison presumes that Sewell and the di vorceeare to be married. When Lhe parly breaks up, Edison goes to Sew ell's home and, while he is waiting his return, is informed Sewell has been found dead. In spector Marx begins a police in vestigation. He questions Se well's Russian valet. The elevator operat or is also questioned. He did not see Sewell return, A young medi cal examiner, with a taste for de tective work, assists Marx. Their search of the apartment reveals complete women's wardrobes in different colors. In a safe-deposit box they find a scrap of paper hearing the inscription, "Paid In Kull". The following day a Major Preston, who has been a sporting associate of Suwell's, is interrogat ed. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER VI "And that's all you know?" Marx snapped. "Yes." "All right," growled Marx. "Thanks. Where can we reach you If we want you?" "I'm stopping at the Albert," said the Major. "I'll he (here for a month." He clamped his derby down once more. "Of course, I'M be glad to help you out. Terrible busi ness, isn't it?" The detective escorted tho Ma jor out. And escorted in the young Assistant Medical Examiner. "How's our Utile murder?" de manded Doctor Rhlnewald cheer ily, rubbing his hands. "Rotten," growled Marx. "Who was the sporting gentle man I've just passed In the corri dor?" "Major Preston. He and Sewell had some horses together." "And did he enlighten you?" "That's what I'm trying to find out. I'l rat he acts as. if he don't know- a thing. Next he's anxious Tor me to know Mrs. Sewell was a good shot, and sort at her hits band." f "Yes," said the doctor. "I have the privllece of Mrs. SeweU's ac quaintanceship. Remarkable wo man!" "How do you know her?" "1 called on her ibis morning. Sheer curiosity." "Whal'd she tell you?" "She'll be here in a moment her self. You can hear the story tivm hand. Meanwhile" the doctor seated himself In the sole comfortable chair "shall 1 tell you about the autopsy ? I've writ ten a formidable report, but I've no intention of reading It. My pearls are never cast before de tectives. The essential fact, which I have reached with a colleague ai your headquarters who makes c passion of these things, is that th bullet which ended Mr. SeweU's career came from a special Itpe o' gun used by the Germans In the war. Also, there's no doubt at ail now that Sew ell w as shot first, and then seated in this very chair before lhe mirror." "That's all. hey?" "I wouldn't dismiss these facts In that offhand way." the doctor smiled. "To solve this crime, all you have lo do is to find out how Sewell came up here without being observed by any of the huildinc employes; how the gntteman (or lady i who ended a career came up with him. before him. or after him; how he was shot: how he was placed In this chair, nnd how the gentleman (or lady) who fired the bullet vot away. "You cnt nothing else to do ex cept to kid me?" demanded Marx truculently. "Hut I assure yon." Insisted the doctor. "I'm not kidding you. I'm merely reducing this case to Its es sentials."

They're bringing Mrs. Edison down here. You say SeweU's widow is coming. Then I'm going to ask young Mr. Edison a few questions. And we've got men working on those clothes in the closets we found, lief ore to night there's going to be all the action anybody will want and more. Only what good it'll do us I don't know. Dammit!" "Tell me, Inspector," began Dr. Rhlnewald, tapping a cigarette on his white palm, "are you always a pessimist ?" "I know what I'm up against," Marx almost groaned. "These damned society murders'll break me yet." "As an outsider," ventured the doctor, "I don'! see your point of view. A society murder is the work of an amateur. All other crime Is professional. Surely It is easier to trap a novice than an ex pert." "That's where you're all wet." said Marx. "In one of these things, anything can happen. In a regular job. we know." "Strange." murmured the doctor. He rose as the doorbell buzzed. The detective ushered in Mrs. Sewell. She was n tall woman, large-boned, with a seamed red face that was shadowed hy a black veil. She had put on mourning. Marx judged her to he forty, or older, for the rather hard face told of suffering. The eyes were large and black, the nose slightly red, the mouth thin and bitter. The doctor welcomed her, and begged her to sit down after pre senting Marx. As the detective shook hands with her he got a whl( of bootleg whiskey. Mrs. Sew ell tippled. "1 want you." said the doctor, "to tell the inspector what you told me." The woman looked nt Marx. "Certainly," and when she spoke, Marx was amazed at the loud quality of her voice. "I can tell you about my husband. 1 guess. S'ou haven't found the man who killed him yet, have you?" "Xo." "Pecause if you have. I want to meet that man and thank him." Tgh?" "You listen to me," boomed the widow. "The man who finished him did (he world a favor. Why, if his body was here now I'd step on it. I'd kick him! He was a rat!" "You don'e know what you are saying!" exclaimed Marx, as If in voluntarily. ' Don't I ?" The woman laughed scornfully. "Nobody else knew Oliver Sewell the way I knew him. He was as filthy a beast as ever lived." She half rose from her chair. "I put on mourning, not for him. for myself. I know now that something in my life is dead. And I'm glad! Glad!" She repeated the word defiantly. And then she stormed at Marx: "I made him. When he married me. h didn't have a penny. 1 Irought his clothes. He was just a no-account gambler. 1 taught him bridge. That's how I started as a teacher of bridg". I wrote a hook, and he signed his name to it. "Sew ell on Uridce!' The book made him. famous. When the bridge craze came, he was taken up by .society. He made a fortune. And then he chucked me. Hp didn't care what happened to me. I could have starved. And f did starv. And when I cam begging to him, he heat me. Oh! It s a wonder I didn't kill him my.eir." She paused breathless. Then she took from her hand ha? a slight sliver flask and drank heavily. "It's my medicine." she ex ; plained with a wry grin. "That's what's been keeping me up. Sitting' up In a furnished room all day long I just thinking, going crazy! And I loved him!" She burst into a loud hysterical roar or lanehler. so that .Marx was alarmed. The young doctor, how ever, made no move, finally the woman subsided. "tit-Use me." -lie bftL "I PUBLIC DlNNtR fUES.

"You know, don't you," suggest ed Marx, "that this sort of talk sounds bad for you? People will be lnslnuatin' that you had something to do with it." "Let them! Let them arrest me! Let them send me to the chair. You think I care?" Once more she reached Into1 the handbag and she took another nip. Marx followed her every move ment. Puzzled, he looked at the doctor. Was the woman sane? Per haps this had been a crime of lunacy. And yet "Do you know Major Preston?" Marx demanded suddenly. " Yes, I know Major Preston," the woman sneered. "He was a great friend of your husband's, wasn't he?" "Yes. Great friend!" "Mean he wasn't?" "Well, I'll tell you what a great friend he was. They had a big deaPy on. And the Major trimmed my dear husband, trimmed him good and proper. o much so that he was broke. You know what Preston did then?" She paused for effect, "He said he'd cancel the debt if I my husband gave me In exchange. lie rather fancied me. It was hard to helie.ve that men would barter for this woman, but on closer survey Marx could see that the wreck of a once beautiful woman sat before him. Sorrow and whiskey could not altogether de stroy the mold of the features, and her large eyes undoubtedly had once been bright and alluring. "When was that?" Marx asked rather pointedly. "Oh " she lauched. "Thai's a good one! Well, it was less than ten years ago. if you want to know. That's what the late Mr. Sewell did to me In ten years! Look! 1 wasn't taking medicine then."
