(© by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) \Humph I Off on a man-hunt! Td be ashamed—but then some folks are too shameless for anything!\ Mrs. Crane ejaculated acidly, at sight of the Eaton car, with Loren at the wheel, luggage-iaden, and headed for open country. Myrtie Crane, aged twenty-seven, pursed her lips and let her eyes fol- low her mother's. Both were filled with speculation plus envy. Yet the Cranes had a better car, better clothes, rather more money than the Eatons—and only themselves to main- tain. Equitably they ought to grudge their neighbors no wlut of the mercy and modest comfort they enjoyed. But gince the Eatons were ever so much more popular—Loren especially quite eclipsed Myrtie in all companies— there was perhaps some color of rea- son for their bitterness. \What I wonder is—who's the game this time?\ Mrs. Crane went on, her accent musing: \I asked Toby when he fetched the milk last evening where his Pa and Loren were going next time, but he grinned foolish-like, say- ing he didn't know. As if boys ever didn't know anything they wanted to as in putting all the world's beauty find out.' •Til ca to* G. C. ANDERSON —Dentist— oft Covlnflton N. Gas administered. A. R.

Judge asked bowing. \Exactly said his daughter. \But having a liberal soul, I won't refuse him If he has two millions or even five.\ And just then Fate stepped in with a man worth five millions; he stood at the door, a lost and lonely soul, bound for the fisherman's house, but stranded on the way to it. Of course, he was succored, guided, later on Welcomed and cherished in spite of a bald liead with grizzled fringe at the ears and a face shrewdly humorous, but deeply lined and now and then hard. He came for three days, saw Loren, was conquered and stayed for three weeks. Long before the end of them he had declared himself, first asking the Judge's leave, then authenticating himself and his standing. To Loren he said frankly: \I know you are not for sale; but maybe money may help you to endure me—it can't give me as much happiness any other way TURKS ORDER THE ALLIES OUT Time Limit Set But Later Ex- tended— Ismet Makes Threat; Italy Yields With France. CONFERENCE OF GENERALS Britain Alone Holds Out, Declaring That She Now Has Made the Full Limit of Concessions—Mom- bell ie Leaves Conference. SAMUEL FLAGG BEMIS Won K. of C. Prize in History Contest round about you. Think it over well before you answer; but tell me this knows all that happens anywhere,\ much now: Is there any other man?\ Loren was as frank. \I'm not sure -—yet—of anything,\ she said. \Life with you would be the fulfillment of my dream. Always I have wanted to do things, in big ways—to help with- out those needing It knowing whence it came, to have beauty in everything —not to make my home a fairy palace but a simple homely heaven on earth, open to sunshine and rain, to Joy and sorrow, to those who laugh and those others who walk in shadow. But— love has walked and wrought with me in my paradise—he may not come, no matter how earnestly I ask him.\ So Marchmont, the man of millions, went away in doubt—not of Loren— her he trusted as completely as he loved her, but of how the scale would tip In the end. She had asked for a summer's grace—he went overseas to make certain he would not hurry her. She took up life as nsiytl, apparently the same merry, helpful, impertinent young creature she had always been. But there were now and then gleams in her eyes toward dusk altogether strange.\ Prosaically the gleams meant nearly always Sara Wesley. He was a fine upstanding fellow, good to look a t with a tenor voice sweet enough for the heavenly choir. Listening to It while she was all but sure she loved him. Other whiles there spread through her consciousness a blurring mist. She would not let herself think of Marchmont and all he meant—the thing In hand was to discover was Constantinople. — T*e Keraalists In an ultimatum to the Allies demanded the occupation of Thrace but later ex- tended the time limit. At the same time it was announced that Italy has ordered General Mom- bellie, its representative at the con- ference, to support the Turkish claim: for the immediate occupancy of Thrace. On the other hand, during a full con- ference of the Allied generals at which Hamld Bey, the Angora government local representative was present, Gen erai Harrington announced he had gone to the full limit of concessions and that it now devolved upon the British cabinet to take the next step. Ismet, the Turkish representative in Mudania, definitely rejected the Al- lied protocol for the occupation of Thrace by 1,000 Allied troops. He al- so declined the establishment of Allied control commissions in Trace. The Turkish demand Is for immediate oc- cupation of Thrace without foreign control. The following statement* given to the Associated Press, explains the present crisis in the Mudania negotia- tions from the British viewpoint. \The Turkish -Nationalists de- manded entry into Eastern Thrace as soon as a Turkish civil administra- tion was established there and Allied control was withdrawn. Discussion was upon whether the Turkish troops should be allowed to enter Thrace, or should be required to wait until after a peace treaty was signed. The Allied generals felt this was more of a pollti cal question than a military one and that they were not qualified to decide it upon their own authority.\ French diplomatic circles dis- claimed all responsibility for the GERMAN MARKS CRAZE RAMPANT Cities From Coast to Coast Re- port Share in Game of Turn- ing Gold Into Waste Paper.

In announcing the winner, the state- ment was made that Professor Bemis' monograph was a \masterpiece and will live forever.\ ON TREATY REVISION New York.—In a canvass of the larger cities outside New York, the World has reports from eleven which are available for calculation of the distribution in America of the im- mense buying of German paper marks. The World's estimate of the Ameri- can total Is 80,000,000,000 marks bought on payment of $960,000,000. Those in the United States who speak Qermaa as a language of childhood are estimated to have paid $798,000,- 000 and others in America $162,000,000 for tbelr shares. The Berlin, official statistics of Congressmen Point Out Austria as Glaring Example of Evils of Versailles Pact. Washington.—Revision of the treaty of Versailles will have to come If Eu- rope is to survive. This firm conviction was expressed privately by some of the members of the congressional delegation just back from the Interparliamentary union meetings in Vienna, in further com- menting on their studies of the situa- tion abroad.

Granny Crane still held against Myrtle's mother that Joe, her own son, had been married rather against his will. All the summer world seemed sing- Ing to Loren—therefore she sang with it, not loudly, but barely above breath. Now and then she ail but chuckled, thinking how she had mystified gossip as to her destination. It was none of the hospitable homes where she and her half-invalid father were always su eagerly welcomed, but a small, brown house, In the foothills, with a tum- bling brook hard by and a stretch of low,'misty distances toward the East. Dad was not going to fish—he left all the hard work to Loren. ' v his own account—but to U>af uader trees, lis- tening to the singing birds and bathing his tired consciousness in the bliss of absolute rest. A conscientious judge, he got the wear of two years /rom each term of service. It was Lorea's doing,_thls running away to \the wilds. She had made touch with the little, brown house through its ruling spirit, a farmer's daughter, who had with gallant blun- dering worked her way through two years at high school in the village. Loren had helped her, given her good food and safe shelter in return for what she could do in her free time. Now that she was married, with a home of her own, she was only too glad to welcome nnd cherish those who had made her less a servant than a friend. No other house was in sight save down the far distance. But up around the brook's bend there was a sprawly building, haunted intermittently by sportsmen from March to \November. Thoy never bothered anybody, said kindly Mrs. Anna—came in ones or twos or half dozens, minded their own business, liberal as could be and ready to help at need. So the Judge smiled whimsically at his dnujrhter, saying: \No chance for any flirting—these ap- ntireutly are sports rather than men. If we stay the three weeks out, I fear vou'll forjjet how to say 'No.' That would be a cnlnmity—eh, Anna?\— to their hostess: \You know her •ricks and manners of old—her swarm if followers—-and thnt my mind Is irmly mnde up. not to spare her to • ny of them.\' \Don't blame ye—nobody can.\ Anna laughed: '*Td know which of Ca agency of a pretty flapper, as rich as she was foolish and impressionable as wax, with whom Sam eloped upon three day's acquaintance. After one hard breath Loren felt -a sense of en- largement, a joy over the turn of the game. So she cabled to Marchmont: \Come home. I want you. There is not, has never been, anybody else.\ DEFINITION OF \ACT OF GOD\ Jurists Have Accepted Lord Man*. field's Idea of What It Shall Mean In Law. The carnal mind of man has \sought out many inventions\ about God and has proceeded to permeate human society with them, incorporat- ing them In school books, prayer books, law books, and in other ave- nues by which men gain knowledge. From out of the Park ages came one of these \inventions that legal phrase, \act of God,\ which Sir Ed- ward Cole (1552-1634), first defined and used In 1581 as meaning storms, lightning, tempests and the like. It has in modern times Been extended in meaning to include death, illness, flood and so on. The happening which is legally termed an \act of God\ is, in general, allowed as an ex- cuse for not performing an agreement entered into. Various forms of con- tracts, notably steamship tickets, freight receipts and some employment agreements contain this phrase, which operates as a release of liability. When the time came for Lord Mans- field (1704-1793), that great jurist, to restate the meaning of the phrase two centuries after It had originated, his definition, as then given, was that \everything Is the act of God that happens by his permission, everything by his knowledge.\ that of all earnest and patriotic Na- tionalists, his feleing oemg that, If matters had reached a breaking point, it was because,, the Allies were not prepared to carry out their promises. It was admitted by the French that the situation appeared extremely grave. Hamid Bey said to the Corres- pondents : \We are awaiting anxiously, impa- tiently, the Allied reply to our Inten- tion to enter Thrace immediately. We cannot accept the Allied arrangement concerning the return of Thrace with- in thirty days. We must have it Im- mediately. \We are sorry Brig. Gen. Haring- ton and General Mombelli have not been invested with greater authority, permitting them to decide the Thra- clan question immediately, in all its aspects. hand observations In the countries of the victor as well as the vanquished led some of the senators and represent- atives to declare that America's great- est satisfaction should rest in her re- fusal to bind herself to enforce the in- iquitous pact. The case of Austria, it was pointed out, is a glaring example ct the evils of the treaty which must be remedied before the growing menace to old world civilization can be checked. Aus- tria was found by the Americans to be a hopeless international mendicant. The Versailles peacemakers toek away her coal and mineral lands of the north and gave them to Czecho-Slovakia. Her natural resources of the south went to the Jugo-Slavs. With the small territory left to her, Austria can produce only enough to sustain herself for-two months-out of \sentenced to political Independence.\ The returning legislators are con- vinced that Austria would be glad to be annexed to any country that could hold out hope of bringing order out of chaos. \General Harington frequently has the year, according to the congressmen, avoided discussion of subsidiary de- i Yet, as one member of the delegation tails of the Tracenn question on the j pictured her condition, she has been gronnd that they were within strictly the political domain. When things reached the point where temporizing no longer was possible General Har- ington Informed the conference the Allies would return to Consatninople for Instructions, with a promise to re- turn to Mudania today.\ Ismet accepted the temporary sus- pension of the conference, but he laid ; emphasis on the fact that he would be unable to hold the Turkish army in leash much longer and that he looked forward to an immediate ac- ceptance oft he Nationalist claims re- specting Thrace. marks Issued and distribution are the foundation of The World's estimates. Applied in America the estimates are guided by 1920 census bulletins modi- fied\ because they treat statistics of the German born, in terms of the area embraced hi post-war Germany. The census total for 1920 of German, Aus- trian and Hungarian born in the United States approximates the figures for German-born alone of the 1910 census, which were 40 per cent higher than the 1,686,102 reported as German- born In the 1920 census reports. The German-Austrian-Hungarian totals adopted as a key in these calculations. That total is 2,659,000. The total of foreign born In the United States, 13,712,754, Is 38 per cent of the total of foreign born and children of foreign born parents here. The World arbitrarily puts the total of German-Austrian-Hungarian born in the United States as one-third the to- tal of German language population used in the calculation. It Is evldeni that parents and their children o1 German language lands origin do no complete the total of those who speak German in America. Elaborate cal- culations Indicate that more than 12,- 000,000 in America speak German a a home language. For application t< United States population statistic the World uses the round figure, 8,- 000,000. In estimating the amount spent foi German marks by the eleven cltlei reported, their totals of German, Aus- trian and Hungarian born as given by the census are tripled. By this means It is found that the German language population in these cities Is .0956 (9.56 per cent) of the total German population In the United States. The total so obtained, deducted from the total population of these eleven cities as given on the census, leaves 5,255,710 as the population not of the German language class. The last to- tal Is .049 (4.9 per cent) of the total population of the United States. These ratios applied to the total of marks purchases for the two classes, as ' estimated by the World, give a total estimated purchase for these eleven cities of $84,227,800, which is within 1 per cent of tne purchases actually reported by these cities.

There is a process of letting air into the lungs by incision from the outside, much used in serious cases of pneumonia, ami called by physi- cians \artificial pneumothorax.\ It Is a very modern treatment, but Dr. A.

The prelim- inary plans provide for a strictly Eu- ropean meeting without America's presence. Premier Polncare strongly favors a meeting of the European nations first, for there is a growing feeling on the part of the allied governments that at least one European conference on reparations and debts will have to ba held before the co-operation of the United States can be expected. Despite the anxiety over the Near East crisis the allied powers, especial- ly Belgium, are beginning to give con- siderable attention to the forthcoming meeting. Exchange of views have al- ready taken place between the French and Belgian governments over the questions to be discussed. As soon as the Turkish problem is fairly on the way to settlement, conversations will be held periodically between represent- atives of the Paris and London govern- ments. Premier Polncare's present plan la to offer to reduce the German In- demnity to a figure between 40,000,000 and 50,000,000 gold marks in return for the cancellation of the French debt to Great Britain and the surrendering by the latter power of her share In reparations, which amounts to 22 per cent- One of the most Important factors toward the success of the Brussels conference Is thought to be the mission to Washington of Sir Robert Home, the British chancellor of the exchequer. A satisfactory arrangement between the United States and Great Britain\ for the consolidation of the British debt would insure the success of the Brussels gathering, is the view of the allied observers.
