nt tho corner grocery for coke and a
fow groceries. If these bills nre not nnlil
promptly, of course 1 would not bo trusted
for any further necessities.
"I burn colto for heat! this I can buy at
10 cents a bag, and n. bag lasts about two
days, but I only keep one flro golnr (The
llltlo front room was ns cold as Ice, nnd
one's breath f teamed as ono talked). I also
pay $1.08 Insurance. This Is tho very least
amount I can pay only 5 cents a week on
tlio younger children. T nlso pay Insurance
for their father not for love of him, but If
anything should happen, for tho children's
sake, he would have to be bulled dciently.
"I love my children, and If I could pro
vide for them halfway decently I would
ask for nothing better than to bo left In
pence with them. Tho older boys can take
earn of themselves, and they are good
boys, and help me. Hut tho younger Will

"I heard that tho men who were sent
to the Houso of Correction would have
to pay 63 cents a day to their wives, but
I havo not gotten a cent from him since
ho was sent there. I wroto to the District
Attorney asking him nbout It last night,
but, of course, have not yet heard what
will be done.
"SIXTY-FIVE CENTS A DAT."
"If I could only get a little help from
his Inbor at the House ot Correction It
would bo a great help to me. Sixty-five
cents a day even would mean so much
to me. It would help to pay for bread
and coke.
"I had my husband arrested Bevcral
times before this, but always gave him
another chnnca when he promised to do
better. He never did, though, and he
hnsn't paid the court order for a long
time. Ho owes something like $70 now,
nnd, of course, as long as he Is locked
up I don't get anything from him. I
know that If ho were released without a
detainer he would simply go away nnd I
would nover get the money. I don't want
him to come back, and I would never
live with htm again, but I do think ho
should be made to support his four little
children.
"I t'hluk tho reason he Is so obstinate
about paying Is because his own father
succeeded in getting awny nnd not pay
ing n court order made on him. My
mothor-ln-law had her husband arrested
10 years ago, and the court made nn order
for her support, but ho never paid It. He
simply ran off to cscnpo paying, and sho
doesn't know where he Is now. I think
my husband knows whero his father Is,
but ho won't tell. And he thinks that
because his father escaped paying that he
can do tho same thing."
A TOUNO WIFE'E WOES
Another, a young woman of 25 years,
whoso worn face plainly showed years
of privation and suffering, told us this:
"I havo been married more than three
years and have worked over since I was
married. My husband seldom works, nnd
when he does gives me nothing. He brings
his money home and shakes It under my
nose, and says, 'You won't get any of

"I novo worked In a bag factory ever

hard; there Is a great deal of heavy lifting.
Sometimes I am hardly able to get up In
tho morning, but I havo to work just the
same.
"Just now work Is slack and I don't
earn much, oven though I do work all day
long. Last week I only earned $3.60, and
that went to pay tho doctor's bill for the
baby. This week I will have to borrow
money to iny the doctor.

tousled and on his brow a slight perspira
tion testified to the labor ot sound sleep.
Ills arms were outstretched. Ills legs
had kinks at tho knees, they were so
chubby. Ills petulant little mouth was
half open, disclosing imy teeth.
"Isn't ho a beauty?" asked Allx a lit
tle loudly, wishing he would awaken.
Gerry nodded. With his eyes still on
the child he put his arm around Allx
and drew her to him. What Margarita
had done fpr him, Allx had done. As he
felt her frail body quivering In his em
brace, as he looked back and measured
the sacrifice by what the awful night ot
the coming of the Mnn had taught him,
ho was overwhelmed by a new humility.
He turned Allx's face up to his. Ills lips
moved In an effort to thank her but words
failed him. Allx understood. She lifted
her arms around his neck and drew his
head down. He held her body very close
as he kUsed her, softly, adoringly. Alx
hid her face against his shoulder for a
moment and then threw back her head
and shook the tears from her eyelashes.
She smiled through wet tears. "I am
afraid he's not quite perfect Inside. Such
f a temper, Gerry, I'm afraid he'll grow up
Into a man about town and awruiiy wild."
She turned grave eyes on Gerry, Junior,
nnd her browB puckered. "What do you
think?"
qerry smiled. "From the looks or him
I predict he gets hla letter In freshman

"Yes, perhaps," said Allx thoughtfully.
"Everybody calls him Katty already."
It was from Alan that Gerry learned
that Kemp was still In town closing up
his connection with the orchid firm. Gerry
wired him, begging him to come to The
Kirs for a few days before he went West
A1U had told of Kemp's word of com
fort. After the first excitement of getting
home was over Gerry found himself rest
less with the same restlessness that had
attacked him during the days at Piranhas.
He tried for a solution in the same way.
Day after day long before the rest of
the Hill was awake, be was pff for a
10-mile walk.
At first It was with head dropped and
eyea on, the ground that he plowed his
way through a dew-soaked world, but
there came a time when he walked with
head thrown back, full lungs and level
eyctt.
Then Kemp arrived. Gerry tried to get
him to join him In his walks, but Kemp
shook hla head sadly.

Gerry laughed. They saddled the horses,

Bklrts, even it it is a
poor reason. Things
llko skirts do riot "Just

reasons advanced by tho
students of man nnd his
ways. (Tho word
"man" when used In
this way Includes the
Idea "woman.") One Is
that skirts aro a sign
of leisure. One Is to
Imagine primitive man

When prlmltlvo man
became rich enough to
let his wife sit nt homo

proudly trammeled her
In skirts to show sho

tho same way, In China,
he made his wife's feet
small to provo to tho
world how rich her hus

could afford to havo a

nnd who could, there

Hut this theory ex

thero aro holes In It;
because women worlc In

as any ono wh'o has seen

Tho best reason for
skirts seems to bo that

Woman Is tho high

LOSSES OF LUTHERANS
CITED BY BIEDERWOtF
Evangelist at Norristown En

of Church
NORRISTOWN", Pa., Feb. 2G. Dr. W.
E. Bledcrwolf, evangelist, last evening an
swered the criticism of tho Rev. Mr. Feg
ley, a Lutheran pastor, of Trappe, and
produced figures prepared by II. K. Car
roll, Government statistician, showing that
of all tho Protestant churches In tho Unit
ed States tho Lutheran Church wns the
only ono to show a loss In membership
during the Inst yenr.
Mr. Fegley, In n reply to the evangelist,
had contended that the Lutheran Church
was fully alive nnd constantly growing,
and that one-half tho Christian population
of the world was Lutheran.
The evangelist made answer in the tab
ernacle In a most dignified manner, quot
ing figures to show that during 1915 tho
Lutheran Church lost 10,786 members,
while every other denomination showed a
gain.
At the cloBe of the sermon. Doctor
Blederwolf asked all who wished prayers
tor themselves or for loved ones to come
forward, and In a fow moments the entire
space In front ot the platform was crowd
ed. They kneeled In the sawdust and
made their petitions, led by the evangel
ist. Tho demonstration lasted for five
minutes.
Tho attendance Jaat night, In spite of
the weather, was about 2000,
Doctor Blederwolf's sermon was on
"Tho Meanest Man," who, ho Bald, "la he
who will not do that which he knows lie
ought to do," with special reference to
the 'professing Christian who, from fear
of business loss, social standing or finan

vow to God and the church.

SCHOOL STRIKE URGED
AT PARENTS' MEETING
Chances Are, However, That
New Revolt in Germantown
Will Not Materialize
The agitation In tho Fltlcr School, be
cause William II, Sowden was deposed
nnd Miss Margaret GUI wan elevated to
the prlnclpalshlp, Is still going on. An
other strike Is being urged, but tho
chnncea nro that It won't materialize,
Tho whole thing was thrnsbed out Again
when 400 parents met inst night In tlio
Oormantown Boys' ClJb. William U.
Lynch, one of the parents nnd nn attor
ney, who has been 'nctlvo In tho cam.
pnlgn for tho restorntlo-i of Mr. Sowdch
to tho old place, urged that tho strike bo
rolnstltuted, but Samuel J. Houston,
chosen president of tho parents' organ
ization, was against (ho plan nnd he pre
vailed. The matter wns nrgued at some length,
and a compromise was finally agreed upon.
Tho parents decided to organlzo n parade
on Saturday, March 4, through tho streets
of Germantown, as n demonstration In
support of tlio school children. Floats
nnd banners, protesting against tho action
of the school authorities, will then bo ex
hibited. At tho meeting placards wero shown
which bore the Inscription, "Spiritless Flt
lcr spiritless becsiUHO of favoritism, In
difference nnd treachery," nnd denounced
tho ruling against Sowden as "the prod

moss grown."
Eight thousand circulars, labeled "Tho
Public School System In Danger," nnd
containing plcn that tho Board of Edu
cation shall henceforth bo chosen by popu
lar vote Instead of by Judicial appointment,
will ho distributed.
Tho permanent organization formed last
night Is to bo known as "tho Public School

wero stated as being tho promotion ot the
Interests of tho pupils of tho 22d Wnrd,
