A "Susie" and a "Sammie" By FRANCIS LINSKY right WIS. ay wcv-ium tii9nsimivi ' Syndicate.) Saturday, nnd fop Sue tlmt ,Ilt n trip lu town to the mntlneo, ,,,,1 perhaps a H'roll through the shops K there was time. Sl. .nrsui'tl her leisurely wny up tht s(ri'ct from the stiitlon, conscious th,lt sh wus looking very well, nnd .'lt(. aware of the f.iet that several pulrs of masculine eyes hud cunt np Living glances In her direction. Suddenly reullsslng that the streets vre getting very crowded, Sue came to Hie conclusion Unit she had stopped too long admiring the pretty things In the windows. "It must be Retting late," she said to herself, and looked at the watch on dor wrist. "Mercy, ten minutes of two ! Wherever Ims the time gone? I'll bo lute now, H right," nnd she tried to hurry, but the crowds were too much fr her, nnd In spite of her best ef forts, she found that she made slow progress. "Surely there must be something the mutter," thought Sue. "I never remem ber seeing such on awful crowd, even on n Saturduy." Itciichlnff the corner nt last Sue found her way barred by the big, good-natured-looking policeman, who usual ly stood guard nt the crossing. 'Can't cross here, miss," he said to her in hi" deep voice, "the street's blinked to passengers till the parade's gone by." 'Parade !" said Sue. "I hadn't heard that there was going to be one! What Vrude Is It?" she asked the big 1)1 lie dinted giant who still stood there sinrl- Idk at ber. "Why, It's the boys Just come. In fr Camp Blunk," he told her. "They're marching through here on tlieir way to the nrmory, so the street's closed to trallic till they've passed." "Oh, dear," thought Sue, "what shall I do?" Hut there was nothing that eoiilil be done, except to stand there ami watch the parade, and that she did, although she kept a very anxious eye all the while on the big clock on the corner, nnd she sighed Impatiently every time the minute hand moved one snace more. "I know It Is not n bit patriotic to feel like this I really ought to feel shamed," she told herself, "bitf I wouldn't cnre If It was any other day except Saturday when I in In sucn a hurry to get to the theater." Hut all tilings must come to an end. Even so ofler lifteen minutes of nnxltws wait ing. Sue darted across the .street and sped on her way to the theater. "How I do hate to he late," she stormed to herself on the way. "I'll Just get In wli4'ii everything's pitch dark, and have to crawl over half a dozen People to get to my seat, and get all disarranged to say nothing of stepping all over the others," and her worst fears were realized, for the the oter was all In darkness, and by the time Sue sank Into her seat, breathless lint thankful to be settled at last, her temper as well as her clothing wus lightly upset. "Oh. dear." exclaimed Sue in exas Iteration, when she had finally dis posed of all her belongings, "I've for cm ten to get n program after all I probably won't be able to follow the play at all without one" but Just then the star made her iippenrance, and Sue . forgot nil her Impatience for the time being, as she leaned forward and up Idniided enthusiastically as her favor Ite came on to the stage, and sin listened In breathless attention as the soldier hero bade his sweetheart good hy and went off to fullill a dangerous mission. "I never dreamed that this was ;l Vnr piny,'" meditated Sue to herself, ns the curtain slowly fell on the first act. "You certainly can t tell much from the names of plays these day I kci-iii to find soldiers on all sides to day," and as the lights went up nnd she turned to look about her, she falny g;isped. She had spoken the truth far more llternllv than she bad dreamed, for sitting right there beside her was quite the nicest looking soldier that she Imit ever seen a clean-CIlt look ing young man with a very pleasant Mnile. "Well." thoiiL'ht Sue. "It is certainly 'soldiers to right of me soldiers in front of me. i hope they don't volley nnd thunder," she rellected, ns her thoughts went back to the poem she hud learned In the olden days nt school. "However." she told herself, "I must get n program, or I sha'n't know what they're doing," and again she looked around vainly trying to attract the at tention of the usher. "Is there something that I can do for yon?" came the pleasant voice at her right, and Sue turned with a flush to inept the very pleasant brown eyes of the young man In uniform. REWARDS FOR KIND DEEDS Instances That Prove Ingratitude Is Not Always the Strongest Trait of Human Nature. The parson who preaches short ser mons certainly deserves recognition, tut whether he deserves so handsome reward for his brevity ns sixty fnt ires of hind is a moot point.

"You see," she went on, "I was late on account of the parade; . I couldn't get across the street. Were you In It?" she nskedshyly. i "I? Oh,' no," he answered with Ills pleasant smile, "I've been home for ! nearly two weeks. You see, I expect j to go away very soon, so I've been at home making preparations." i "Away,w said Sue. "You mean I 'Over There?' " lie nodded. "How brave you boys are," said the girl, her eyes shining. "Oh, no," replied her companion, "not brave at all Just patriotic." And somehow, nt those few words. Sue felt rebuked for her Impatience of the aft ernoon. To think that she nail neeo' unwilling to sacrifice even a few min utes of her time, when this man and thousands like him were reudy to sacrifice so much. She would do better hi the future she promised herself, so ufter the cur tain had fallen on the second act, sue turned to her nelflibor once more. 'I do really want to do something to help the soldiers," she said, "do my hit, yon know. I'erhaps you wlil be good enough to tell me what kind of work you think would be most useful." "Well, you've heard of Sister Susie. nnd the shirts she sews," said her com panion, with a smile. "Oh, but reully, I'm not Joking," pro tested Sue. "Of course, I sew and kult everyone does that besides, Susie n reully my name," she ndded naively. "Ah. Indeed," said the man. "Susie? nnd be waited n moment. Hut Sue was sjlelit.

"No. I nm sure you did not, said Sue, quick to appreciate the courto- ousness of his manner. "Hut tell me please, why do they call the soldier 'Sammies?' " "Whv. I don't know ns there Is liny renl reason," he said, "unless it may be due to the fact," be added with n laugh, "that my real name Is Sammie." "Really," exclulmed Sue, "why, how strange." "Strange, but true," snld the soldier, "nnd I think that perhaps this would be ns good a time ns any for me to in troduce myself Lieut. Samuel Putnnn' at your service." 'Ami I am Sue Williams." said the girl, not to be outdone, "nnd iinxlou to be of service." "Thank you." said ber new acquaint once, politely acknowledging her Infor mation. "Shall we shake hands and miiMiiW ourselves properly Intro duced?" nnd ns the lights went out line" left the theater In rendiness for tin last net. Sue reached out her hand t( her compnnlon, nnd with a thrill shi felt his broad palm close over her lin gers and for a moment hold them fast. "I nm cnnilmr to see you, If I may, be told her, as they left the theater to gether.

"Yes, do come," she said, "two heads are better than one, you know." "Hy Jove, that's right!" exclaimed the young man. "And n Susie and a Saniinle that's n pretty good combina tion, It seems to me." And the sparkle In his eyes told of a deeper meaning that, lay hidden In his words. England Levied First Income Tax.

Soldiers and workmen seem to be forming "councils" in Vienna, Budapest nnd other leading cltlej of the old empire. Officers of the army are being shot. Nobles arc being as sassinated.

The old ruling classes are be ing inveighed against and many of the royalists are hurriedly moving their families and their valuables toward the Swiss border for a quick getaway, If necessary. For sevorul weeks the Imperialists in Germany have bees flying storm signals warning enemy governments that the complete overthrow of tin present Iron-willed government In tier many might be followed by a re-enactment of the ghastly scenes staged by the Bolshevik lunatics In ItUKsla. They pretended to see signs of such out lawry throughout many of the Her man provinces and urged the Allies tc go i-low In their demands for the abdication of the Kaiser and the ovei throw of his government, If the Allies were concerned in what might there after happen to Germany. But all tliis was discounted as clumsy militarist propaganda. It was put dow'n as a bare-faced scheme on iheir part' to save themselves by In fluencing the'ir enemies In the dir"; lion of a compromise. Moreover, H was put forward, officials here were convinced, as a bait to the Allies, who will, of course, demand certain in demnities from Germany, Imb mnits which might not be collectible If there were only anarchy and riot through out that nation.
