There can be no certaint 1 ofl considerable flax acreage here without the mills here to : use the fiber. Neither the fanners nor the business people wi scutching plants to supply fiber 1 provide many retting and for tfcje general markets. concerned. The technical objections to the title; have been both removed and vindicated. And the various contestants may go each his own way in further procedure, i - J '.j The referendum sponsors will no doubt launch a vigorous campaign. But it should require stronger argument than yet advanced to convince the taxpaying public that the bus and truck lines should not pay a larger proportion of their earn ings than they now pay for the niaintainance of the public highways. The referendum should be defeated in the in terests of the square deal to those who now pay struction and maintainance of the roads. THE KINDLY HELLO or the con- Seldom do we hear enconiums of praise lavished, upon the telephone girl. Hers is oft the lot of the servant chided and condemned. She is often blamed for annoyance! far beyond her control. "Wrong number? is due as often, I it may be, to our mumbling of words as to her inattention or indiffer ence. ; . J: '.- Hj ; i . Sometimes the patron guesses at a number or a name he should KNOW, and then grumble before he finds out his er ror. It's a joke, but not one which adds to the pleasures of life at the switchboard. ! ; j In case of great disaster- fire, flood, sickness or accident her part in the world's work is recognized and commended. But it's in the persistent nerve destroying, exacting grind of the commonplace day that the "hello" girl appreciates kind words and patience. The reflex effect of such kindness is good for the patron also. i ! HELPFUL COMMENT Without spinning and weaving arid specialty mills here, the flax industry will amount to little compared with its possibi- j And why should we not have the mills ? j Why should ! we send fiber to Belfast and buy bacr? the linens with the heavy duties? Or sell fiber to the eastern thread and twine mills and buy back the finished products ? I , The natural conditions are here in greater perfection than elsewhere in the world- Why should we not take Advantage of them? -1 That is just what is bein proposed, and there must be nai other thought, nor any lagging till the second linen mill proposition is put over.' That will be a very long step. opments that will naturally open tip. It will lead to other devel . i .! . . r -THE SPIRITUALITY 'OF BUSINESS Decrying "a lot of loose ideas" concerning business, "which are pleasing to the demagogues,' Richard F. Grant, present of the United States Chamber of Commerce, iii an address at Atlantic City1, recehtlyj said : ': . !; j J: if At regular intervals -e are bombarded in maga zine articles, in books and in the press, with! the , .thought that business ii bur king and money jour jrLJ, AX1U : IrllttL' Lite UHljr bujuuuu ui uitiuuiM; tiayyt- .- ness in life is to cast aside he materialistic views which we entertain and! become more spiritual in ' our outlook and manner of giving. jThe inference .clearly is that business is! an institution of the devil. But there is a spiritual development in business, as reflected by the many ... Institutions! ; founded and maintained by business 6ien,j and the constant rise j of the whole moral tone df business, j The unpreced ented growth of this nation was made possible be cause of business enterprise. The strictures of which Mri Grant' ains and to which business has been subjected, are ho new thing. And envy is the root which feeds them. In his incomparable bio logy of Alexander Hamilton, University of Edinburgh; has "Emotionally we are too suppressed a nation'f says a noted singer. "We follow the customs of society women who keep their diamonds locked in the safe deposit vault and wear paste imitations. We seem afraid to show our emotjons. In singing wear the heart where the audience can see it. Music is emotion without emotion it is just mathematics so many notes to a measure." : This straightforward observation should be helpful in making more effective, more enjoyable, much of present day song, j 1 r ; j ) MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS ldl GarriaoB TSem PbAM of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Copyright by Nwiptpr Featur Brrlco Frederick Scott Oliver; of the this; to say.:' : 'i " M lh :i "It Is notable that the irrtmediate cause of the constitutional compact is to be sought; not in the higher spheres of political necessity, but in the prac tical needs of business men. j Trade necessities, and these alone, were the ocdasioh of their meeting and the Durpose of their deliberations. 1 By these 'sor did bonds a loose conf eredation was in due time to be j lashed together into such a union as the world had h j never seen." i- ! 'U'l It will be recalled that the servant who had been given five talents "went and traded withj thejsame, and made: them other five talents," and the recipient of the twojtalents jdic! likewise, and they were rewarded as good and faithful servants" by being made "ruler over many things" arid entering into the joy of their lord.

The !refeVendum petitioners assumed the. law to mean "charges"? while the attorney general em ployed the term "taxes." . j . J t: , 1 1 , 1 Obviously for advantage in obtaining votes for, the re ferendum the auto interests wanted the "tax", term to stand while their competitors, oppossed this, scarecrow terrii and urged the less objectionable term; meaning license charged The judgcs vision evidently encompassed the attitudes and pur poses of all the contending parties and decided that the title portion in question should read "levy heensa taxss CHTAPTER 437 THB WAYj CLAIRE AND DICKY . . . TOOK; MADGE'S NEWS : We were at breakfast. Claire. Dicky and I, when Lillian's tele phone message came, and I hur ried back to the table joyously. "Our imprisonment Is ended," L said. "Lillian tells me that Dr. Pettit has been convicted of sin and is .now on the mourners' bench. It will be perfectly safe for us all to go wherever we wish." "Safe!" Dcky snorted, while I fumed at myself for my unfortu nate choice of words. "I'd like to know when it hasn't been 'safe' for us to go where that jackanapes was. I could wring his neck be-J tween my finger and thumb, if I got fighting mad. and I was ready to do it when you dragged us down here. - The only reason I came " j : .3 : "I know the reason you came, Dicky-bird,! as well- as you do," Claire Foster Interrupted cooing ly. fit was because Madge hates anything like a scene or publicity of any kind. That was what brought, her up to the Barker bouse. And, of cousre, we both had to humor her and get out of the way till Herbie had time to collect the j senses he'd lost. : But nobody's impugning your courage, dear lad, so don't get snorty." i I saw a little frown etched in Dicky's forehead as he gave Claire a startled look, and I .saw that even he, undeniably attracted to her as he was, found this atro cious speech a little too much for approval. ! r j As for myself, I had to exert every bit of self-control I possess ed to keep from railing out at her. I had saved her from unpleasant ness from scandal, from the half insane fury of Dt. Pettit, and she bad rewarded me with this sneer ing little. speech! ; ; -T " .-" I . TAnyway, the whole thing's over," I said cheerily; and mar velled at myself for (the 'ability to speak thus buoyantly. 'The next question is, where do we go from here, and when?" j Madge is Heartenedi j f'l'm going to my apartment this morning," Claire said, ''the minute I get my things packed. I suppose you're going to beat .it, too." . . ' I ' "Just as soon as I get this apartment in order,'' I said quiet ly, i : j ' vClaIre laughed disdainfully. Vs she always a! housekeeping martyr like this?" j sh queried saucily of Dicky. "Anybody's think a lot! of hoodlums had stayed here. I'm. game, old dear. I'll 'stay till the last dish is wiped and the last bed made." j Again I caught the tiny involun tary! frown on Dicky's forehead, and the mote evidence of disap proval even if subconscious -of Claire's ' catty attacks; on me, heartened me in spite of my re sentment against him. j j "I won't need you at all," I ad dressed Claire with friendly cas ualness. "There really is very lit-l tie to do, and as l can't get a train out home until late after noon anyway, I shall have oceans j, UU: ; .

'Well, jl suppose 'I'd 'be more trouble than help." Claire yawned with more truth than she guessed, "so I'll beat it as soon as I get packed. How about you. Dicky bird? Ar0 you going to fly f the nest, too?" j'"..;' ; t ; v' -"I Understand Her Perf ectly! "Do yoi think I'd dare to stay here after Madge has cleaned this place up?" he demanded whimsic ally.

I've got some stuff to finish, so I can't get out to Sag for another two days but I'll go to a hotel until then." Claire looked back from the doorway where she had trailed her atrocious negligee she i had come to preakfast every morning in the kid curlers and the soiled wrapper j-and flashed : him a pro vocative fiance. :3:rj i. . .j.- ..- "Be sure to come to seo me be fore you go, she said. , j Even Dicky's poise was j not proof against this piece of audac ity. I saw him flush ever so slight ly as he answered her lightly. " "I'll dd that little thing if I get a chance,) but don't count on! me, for I shall be fearfully rushed." She made an exasperated moue at him, and disappeared into the bedroom she shared withj me. Dicky spoke constrainedly when he had finished; his coffee. j . "I'll take my bag with me this morning, ton right and I'll stop at the Chil near the studio. You can get me there or at the studio if anything j special should turn up before I get home. Do youj ned any money?". -I i j ; ,. f 'No, thank you, I have plemty." I returned. i He rose, stood as If pondering for a second, then stooped toward me and Said in a low tone: j ,"Don't misunderstand her She isn't as audacious as she apptears." "I understand her perf ectSly," I said quietly,' and as Dicky with an angry little exclamation 1 went into his room: to-pack his bag, . ij sent the resentful mental addenda aft er him: "And rou also."
