Y. W. C. A.-DISCOURAGES
MERE TRYfNG OF "LUCK".
Hiking Jaunts to San Francisco are
not the ,only way girls are express
ing the wanderlust. South America,
is well to the fore just now in popular
ity among girls in aU parts of , the'
globe.
"Every week girls write us want
ing to embark to South America to
hunt a Job," writes Miss Emma R.
Chapin from Buenos Aires. "Letters
pour in from all parts of the globe.
We wrote one young woman upon
her inquiry, that it would be impos
sible to get a position for her. A few
weeks later she walked into our of
fice. "'Didn't you get my letter ad
vising you not to come?' our employ
ment secretary esked. Oh, yes,' was
the answer, 'but I thought I would
just try my luck. '
Her 'luck" proved disappointing.
Despite a musical education and the
ability to speak five or six languages,
she was forced to accept a resident
teaching position with a" family at
thirty-five . dollars monthly. The
urge to see the world is so prevalent
among, girls that despite limited
means young women are still sailing
to seek work in southern countries.
Many of them step off the gangway
with no job and little cash.
"Please discourage any young wo
man coming who expects to earn
her living here," advises Miss
Chapin. "This applies to all profes
sions and all kinds of work. There
is no work for American or any for
eign women at the present time in
Argentine. This holds good for
other South American countries as
well."
Miss Chapin who sailed in 1919 to
undertake Y. W. C. A. work in Buenos
Aires is from Emlenton, Pennsylvania.

to introduce his friend to that well
known character.
Now, however, Major Pewitt strolled
up; and Shottle, keen to get to the
gaming table, introduced Pewltt to
Drace and then a moment later him
self slipped away." v'
"We are on our way to visit Shot
tie's uncle, General Bethpage,". ex
plained Drace. -
"What, my old friend and fellow
soldier, Bethpage! Never a nobler
man drew sword in defense of what
he conceived to be right If you like a
genial atmosphere and a company that
never tires, you will remain with him
as long as possible and still too short
a time. I earnestly hope that you may
find Inducement to settle among us."
"Possibly I may. I like the River. I
like the study of character. In charac
ter there Is all history, all philosophy,
all" V
- "Just so," the Major agreed. "And
we have some remarkable characters
here, sir, and some fit the most beau
tlful women in the world ; to some peo
ple It may appear a little singular, but
Interesting character among men ah
ways develops in an atmosphere pro
ducing beauty among women."
"And naturally. Major, you are ac
quainted with both characters and
beauty. , And by the way, did you ever
meet an old fellow let me see, what
Is his name? Oh, I think they call hUn
Stepho something. Oh, yes La
Vitte?". -
The Major cleared his throat and
gently laid his hand on Urace's
shoulder.
"My young friend, they have told
you about the most implacable and
desperate of men, sir. I know the
man,- and while nature did- not Intend
and I beg your pardon for what
might seem a want of modesty that
I should fear any human being, yet I
confess Xo an occasional uneasiness in
the presence of old Stepho la Vltte.
I have never had any words with him
that is, strained words; but if I
should, I'd await no move on his part
"The first squirt of cold water geu
erally comes from one as much af
flicted as yourself. But no matter.
Cold water chills, but at the same time
It cleanses. And from this time on,
gentlemen, Liberty Shottle, the vague
and unreal, will become the obvious
and the actual. If I had a thousand
dollars right now, I wouldn't bet that
the sun will rise tomorrow. Oh, there
is such a thing as redemption."

but shoot him Instantly. Ha, I wish
you to meet my deer young friend and
much esteemed partner, William
Hawkins."
Drace was much taken with Haw
kins, his quiet manner, his athletic
moid, and passed some time with him
in' talk, the Major having given to
Hawkins a scheming wink.
The boat was now fluting her ruffled
way up the river. 'At a table beneath
a great shaded lamp, Shottle sat, not
alone, not staring into vacancy but in
to the expressionless countenance 'of
men merciless in vivisection. Luck at
first had cajoled him, let him swell
the fifty he had obtained to near five
hundred, but a yellow-looking swab of
whiskers entangled with him and
leeched ' him down to twenty-five.
Shottle looked at him, his caterpillar
eyebrows, heard his slight hacking
cough, his request for a glass of ice
water, and said to himself:
"One of these days I may have a
chance to set fire to you as I would
any other patch of dead grass."
Slowly and with an economy painful
for him to practice, Shottle with many
ups and downs built up again toward
two hundred ; but at length in the aft
ernoon an old citizen who sat high
and who looked like a steer, hooked
him and horned him broke.
Shottle came stumbling over the
doorsill and found Drace in conver
sation with Major Pewitt and William
Hawkins. With a wink the Major
enjoined a humorous silence, and
mutely they sat attendant on the los
er's mood. Shottle sat down, took out
a card, wrote on it, put It back into
his pocket, tapped his teeth with the
pencil and spoke:
"I have just written a resolve, and
whenever I do, it becomes a law of my
being. It has just been enacted and
recorded that never again on this earth
am I to bet another cent I may go
to houses where there are card parties,
but never again am I to shuffle a deck.
My career as a fool is ended .
Who was it that wrote, 'If at first you
don't succeed, try, try agaln't A pris
on sentence would be too good for the
hatcher .of such a fallacy. If at first
you find you're wrong, quit That's my
course for the future."
"I congratulate you. But what are
you going to do?" Drace inquired.
"I will drag a surveyor's chain and
squint at the landscape I'll lug a tri
pod and eat a raw turnip In the wind.
Or, If compelled to be humbler, I can
curry horses." '
"And bet some fellow that you'll
have your horses curried first" said
the Major.

SECRETS OF COOKING BACON
To Fry Until Thoroughly Delicious and
. Crisp, Though Unburnedr la Not
- Difficult
Frying bacon so that It is thorough
ly delicious and crisp, though un
burned, is not such a hard thing to
accomplish as has sometimes been
supposed. According to the office ofj
home economics of the United States
Department of Agriculture, it makes
no difference whether the cooking is
fast or slow, and to keep pouring off
the fat as it tries out is more work
than is really necessary for a perfect
ly good result. .
Frying bacon so that It Is crisp Is
chiefly' a matter of getting the water
and excess fat out of it In order not
to burn it, one should be very careful
that neither the bacon nor the fat la
the pan becomes overheated. Through
out the process the fat should remain
a light brown color and should not be
allowed to get dark brown. It Is
easier to cook bacon slowly than to
cook It fast, because It is easier to
keep the fat a uniform pale color when
one takes plenty of time for the
task. -
Bacon to be crisp does not need to
drain while it is cooking. It can even
be fried In deep fat with excellent re
sults. After it is cooked and before
it Is taken from the pan it should
be thoroughly drained while still hot;
then It should be served at once.
Seeking History of Tibet
The "Forbidden City" Is to be visited
by a British mission in the hope of
obtaining real Information on the his
tory of Tibet. Every member of the
party is a British Buddhist, and they
believe through religious affiliation
they can obtain what other travelers
and explorers have sought in vain..
Foreigners who have entered the "For
bidden City" are far and few between,
and no one heretofore has been af
forded the opportunity to study the
religion, literature and history of this
scaled country.
Campaign Terrors.
There was a wild and frenzied scat-
terment Men, white-faced and star
ing-eyed, fled as if pursued by a pes
tilence. They dropped whatever they
had in hand and stood not upon the
order of their going, but departed like
frightened roebucks, hitting only the
high places as they went -.,
"Why are the people fleeing?" we
asked.
"A candidate who calls himself the
friend of the. people' has just come to
town," replied- an Innocent bystander
who had no vote. Kansas City Star.
