XKTELli, we won't miss the Bryn Mawr show so awful much, after all, will we, for a whole bunch of energetic women have decided to hold what they call a sporting carnival out on the Bryn Mawr polo grounds on tho Friday nnd Saturday afternoons of the last week of September. And It Is nil to be for the benefit (can't mention beneficiary again, It's too much to ask twice In one column), anyhow, It's to be for the Red Cioss. And there will be 11 horse show and 11 nog show and a side show. I don't know it the horses and dogs mind being classed with the sides, but If they are going to be so they might as well get used to it. Then there are to be drills by Hoy Scouts and Girl Scouts and all the otlfer organizations that are home and can drill. It Is a carnival pure and simple, and Is gotten up by tho women In the Red Cross along the Main Line, nnd has Incidentally nothing to do with the Hryn Mawr Horse Show Association, which has called off Its regular affair, you know. The association having decided that the annual Bryn Mawr Show would not be an "annual" this year donated the grounds and polo field to the women In tHe Main Line branches of the American Red Cross, and great Indeed are the preparation therefore. Among the women in charge are Mrs. Archibald Barklle. chairman; Mrs. William .!. Clothier, vice chairman; Mrs. Adolph Rosengarten, sec retary; Miss Ellen Hopkins, assistant secretary; Mrs. David U.

On cveiy Individual mixing, Iho foremen, seveially. made two barrels of cement In every inlvjiig tluee barrels of cement wero left out "But what about tho wall?" Challoner asked himself when once moro nlonc. And so It came about that he found that In this business, of all businesses, thoro was a ch,im.o for nn honest man After 11 little while he found another Job 'ltlll nt two dollais a day. It was beginning oruv moro at tho bottom and wonting up, yet he did it. Hut the instant he had worked up he was ngaln confronted with a sim ilar situation It was a question of "shut up or get out!" Gradually, It Is title, the burden of the song of the men shifted slightly and became. "Come In with us, or Keep silent." A few more experiences of this sort anil It was given to Challoner to perceive that ho had Knowledge of these things In advance of the general public. People looked upon concrete as something marvelous. Tho agitation among tho construction men, the newspaper uccounts about its cheapness, to gether with tho wonderful results obtained by Its uso In other cities, all combined to dazzle owners about to build From day to day, Challoner could see the demand for concrete Increasing, lie saw. too. that the price of brick was falling off. because concrete bad awakened a new Interest In the minds of the people, had nroiied their enthusiasm I'lalnlj. ( h.tl loner was ecitid He could see. could talk of nothing else. While Miriam was In the hospital he had begun to talk concrete vvltl her; when she was convalescing and bad returned to their rooms they had tluee now figuratively speaking, they bad ce ment for breakfast and for supper Hut it was his business now. nnd his whole mind was concentrated upon It. And in nil this there was a singular and valuablo fact Challoner was tho onl.v man In town. Illeially the only man. because' of tho circumstances of the case, outside of tho contrai tors, who knew the business, and vet who bad Intelligence enough to under stand the danger In concrete. Naturally, tho contraclois did not tell owners nhout giaft Thev did not warn their customers; thev took chances; and needless to say. the owners themselves did not Know Challoner was quid; to seize his oppor tunity; besides, he was conscious that a duty rested upon him. Day and night ho Rearmed the papers, and when ho found a concrete contract recorded he looked ,. the owner, saw him personally and told him facts Of course, most of this was done nt night nnd on holldavs You don't say so?" the owner would re. spend, opening wide his eyes Hut Challoner mentioned no panics , ho merely outlined conditions Some con tractors, he acknowledged, wire honest, perhaps most of them, but marly were care ess. And then the foremen on these Jobs unquestionably wero poorly paid. Surely the temptations were great.

Then they tensoned with him; but It did no good "It's a cave of using force," they told each other. "Toluol low night " Hut tomorrow night never came for Challoner The game of giaft had siikened him. "I have got to tell somebody nhout this," he assured himself. And then nn Inspira tion c.imo to him. "1 know, 111 go to Muigatrovd!" "Muigatiovd"' He shuddered ns he ic peateil the name, for tho prosecutor had been connected with the thing that had be come to Challoner and his vvlfo a subject forbidden and unmentlonod. But, nevertheless, he went to .Murga troyd CIIAI'Tl'K MV IT IS, of course, not given us to know what dreams of fame were In Murgn Iroyd's heait when ho ilelpiinlned to tlnow down the gage nt the feel of ('r.iiUcbaugVs; but, nt all events.

Another man might have been discour aged, for millionaire-, I.uge ptoporty own ers, reputable taxp:iers. statesmen of tho highest older and even his best friends came to him and lugged him to call oft Ills crusade but he onlv shook his head. As ho proceeded, ho made the discovery that 11 political organization Is not nn organiza tion It Is ti man; that clime is personified; and that corruption Is concrete. And ns the battle waged, he found himself con stantly seeking his old stamping ground Ciadlebaugh's. That, somehow, seeimd to be the ke) stone of the edifice that lie as saulted Then, one day, agitated, breathless but triumphant. Mlxley and Mciirath burst Into tho prosecutor's olllce. "Chief," spoke nut Mlxley Joyously, "we followed your Instructions to tho letter" And beckoning to bis paltrier. "MiGrath nnd me bus got the goods!" McGtath pulled from his poi Ket a bulky document in.ido up of depositions, and said: "This here Is the report, sir." While Mureatrovd read the document. Ms subordinates stood watching him with anxious ejes Long befote bo had concluded they saw in his face the expression that Ihev had waited for. "Hy Gem go. ou don't mean It!" ex claimed Murgairp.vd, suddenly rising to his feet and smiting his desk with terrific foice. "You can bet your bottom dollar that we do'" leturned Mlxley. Muigatind clenched his teeth with In ivard satisfaction Presently he said: "I've watted for this for many months" After rei ending tho report ha oidered his men to go to Hioderlck and Thome with money was plentiful. It did not n erfere with Challoner's Interest In the evolution of concrete and concrete graft; nor was he shivv to lecognlze Its value to politicians and so when tho "rlng"-for there was si a "ring" in splto of the efforts of Murga-Uod-sprang Its little surprise.
