little place for some time to come.
THE preparations for the liberty Loan
Drive which starts on Saturday recall
the last campaign, when the Statue of Lib
erty was unveiled, and little Nona Martin
pulled the string that did the. deed. Do
you remember how cute she was and Just
a little bit fussed with so much attention?
Her mother, who Is Mrs. Clayton Piatt
now, you know, Is living In Chestnut Hill,
and her sister, Mrs. Ferdlni.:.d do Mohron
chlldt Is visiting her for some time. They
are both daughters of Secretary McAdoo,
and Mrs. de Mohrenschlldt l.ves In Wash
ington. OCTOBER Is going to be quite a festive
month as far as weddlntrs go. I know
of three already, and you never can tell
how many more tates will be decided be
fore the end of this month. Edith Gillette,
of Germantown, Is to be married to Dick
Brown on the fifth, In Calvary Church,
Germantown, the next one Is Frances Alli
son's and Curzon Poultney's on the eighth
at home. Molly J5harplcss Is going to be
maid of honor and only nttendanc for
Frances. And then Marlanna Gowen and
Lieutenant G. Dawson Coleman are going
to be married on the twenty-sixth.
MRS. EDWARD S. SAYRES of the Bel
glan Relief Committee tells me that
Clothes for the needy Belgians may be sent
directly to Red Cross Headquarters on
Morris avenue, Bryn Mawr, or will be
called for If Bryn Mawr 392 Is notified.
The need Is very great as you probably
gathered from my remarks on the subjtot
when I told you about the beginning of the
drive for five thousand tons of clothing.
I'm sure that Main Line people will be
glad to know just where to send their
things. Out-of-town people who have
things to t'lve can send them to their local
Red Cross Headquarters, where there Is
always a motor truck to take them In to
the ware house at 1627 Arch street. Mrs.
Alexander Brown, who Is vice-chairman of
the Main line branch No. 1. has had a
number bf cards printed with this Informa
tion on them for the benefit of thoso who
'have clothes to send.
ISN'T It brain-taxing the way you hove
to calculate these days, so that you can
be sure to have enough nickels left over
for to-morrow? I know of one family
that has a special fund of small change
for Incidental movies and carfare, because
some times there are pictures that you
Just naturally have to see, and It seems
wrong to miss any war films. The other
night they felt that desire coming upon
"' them, so they get out the fund, and cal
culated that the tickets would be eighteen
cents apiece, twenty-cents with the war
tax, and then ten cents to ride over on the
trolley would just make fifty cents. Then
they could walk all the way home and
have ten cents left' for next week. To
meet any emergency they took along the
ten cents extra. Then they performed
setting-up exercises In company Vvith a
number of other strap-hangers, and finally
arrived.
"it was Saturday night and the tickets
Were twenty-five cents Instead of twenty,
1 and' so that removed from their pocket
book and their prospect the nest egg for
next week's fund. As a finishing touch,
J the pun was not my original plan, but now
that It has made Itself, I think It's good
enough for me to take the credit for, the
Smokes Fund chose that very night to
send out a search party for stray money,
A dime which each had surreptitiously
brought along to ride home on in case of
rain or being too tired or anything like'
that, was brought out and. placed rcver-
'ently In the glass bowl, and then they
had to walk home. Fortunately It was a
good picture, and a rle.tr night, but they
did hope that .the solJIer who got these
cifarettes, didn't waste any of them.

FIND BRIDES IN FRANCE
Charles Edward Russell Says Many American
Soldiers Wed Abroad
Special Dispatch to tho h'vrnlna Public Ledotr
NewV York, Sept. 26. Before leaving for
Washington last night, Charles Edward Rus
sell, who has just returned from Europe,
when asked about the report that numbers
of American soldiers were marrying French
girls, said that from what he heard at Amer
ican headquarters the report was correct.
"Hundreds of young American soldiers are
marry'ng In France," Said he, "and the ma
jority of them will probably settle there after
the war. France welcomes them because she
has lost so many young men In the conflict.
It Is the custom, and has been so for genera
tions among business menf that when their
time of retirement comes they turn over the
business to the son, and In case where there
Is no son, or when he has been killed In
battle, the business Is turned over to the
son-in-law.
"Frenchmen who wlll not be able to marry
their daughters to their own countrymen,
and who are solicitous that the business be
kept In the family, are glad to get Intelligent
young Americans as members of their fami
lies." WYNNEWOOD LOAN PLANS

MAY MERGE SEMINARIES
War Revives Plan to Bring Together Ten
Episcopal Colleges
Ten Episcopal theological seminaries of
the country have under consideration a plan
to consolidate their work during the war
period, combining their faculties and assem
bling all their students In one seminary dur
ing the summer months.
By this means, the present theological
course of three years can be shortened one
half, and, at the outside, the same amount
of work can be accomplished within two
years.
The Philadelphia Divinity School. General
Theological Seminary. New York ; Berkeley
Theological School, Cambridge Theolottlcal
School and the seminaries at Suwanee and
Alexandria, Va., will be Included In the con
solidation plan, together with four seminaries
in the West.
A meeting of the deans of the ten semi
naries to consider' the proposed program of
summer work will be held at the General
Theolologlcal Seminary, in New York, Octo
ber 17 or 18. The Rev. Dr. George G. Bart
lett, dean of the Divinity School, will at
tend. If the plan Is adopted it will apply only
to summer work, as each seminary will want
to continue Its fall and winter terras In Its
own buildings.

CHAPTER IV
At the Attic Window
BILLY IlftLOIUM, as he heard the ms
terlous bounds overhead, looked sur
prised and dlsmaved. Was this ghost Joke
coming back at him like the one told by
Judge Owl'
"One of the Birds is trying to fnol us."
he whispered, but Peggy could see that
he wasn't at all certain that this guess
was true.
"Birds don't cry like that." s.ald Pegy
"Cat Birds do, and so do Mocking Birds,"
declared Billy Belgium, growing bolder.
"But there hafcn't been a Mocking Bird
or a Cat Bird nround here In a long time,"
answered lteddy Woodpecker.
Again came the muffled sobbing, fallowed
once more by the cautioning "Sh-h-h 1"
"There surely Is some one up In the attic,"
whispered Peggy.
"Majbe a kidnapper! suggested Billy.
"I think we'd better get out of here,"
murmuted Judge Owl.
"So do we all." cried the other Birds, and
then there was a wild scramble for the
window through which they entered. Kvery
one wanted to get out at once, and the
result was that they got tangled up to
gether and blocked the way.
Peggy and Billy Belgium eausht the pan
icky feeling, but their pride heir? them hatk.,
"Phooh! Who's afraid?" said Billy Bel
gium, but Peggy noticed that he glanced
up nervously at the trapdoor which led
tb the attic.
"I'm not afraid !" said Blue Heron, push
ing Into the crowd, "but I want to be In a
place where I can get a good start If I
should become afraid In a minute."
That seemed to be the way with all tho
Birds. They wouldn't admit tat they were
frightened, but they wanted to be ready to
dash for safety should rial danger show
Itself.
"Guess we'd better go outside, loo ' BUg
gestd Billy Belgium, as the Birds finally
crowded through the window. "Ladies
first," he gallantly added. Peggy didn't need
a second invit-Ulon. She might not be really
scared, but she preferred to Investigate this
mystery fiom a safe distance.
"I move that we adjourn to Blrdland,"
hooted Judge Owl, when all were gathtred
In the schoolyard.
"No," promptly answered Peggy "Some
one Is crying up In that attic. Thev are hi
trouble. Majbe we can help them. It would
be cowardly for us to run away without
finding out "
"That's right," agreed Billy Belgium. "If
It's a kidnapper, we can rescue his vic
tim." Peggy shivered at the word kidnapper,
but she found her courage coming back
strong once she made up her mind she had
a duty to perform.
"The safest thing Is to get away while
the getting Is good," declared General Swal
low. "That's the law of Blrdland, but If
you say stay, Princess Peggy, we'll stay
with jou."'
"Thank you. faithful Birds," answered
reggy. "I wish one of you would fly to
that attlo window and tell us, what you
see."
Kvery Bird responded, and In a moment
the whole crowd was massed In front of
the window,
"I see! I see!" they chorused.
"What do you see?" cried Peggy. "You
tell me, General Swallow," she added, when
all started to answer at once.
"Something white, all huddled up." he re
plied. "It's crying, whatever It is."
"I'm going to take a look," declared Billy
Belgium, shinning up a tree that stood be
side the school: In a mmute he was on
a limb opposite thewlndow. Billy Belgium
gazed through the window for a long time,
while a puczled look came over his face.
"Hello, hello, In there!" he scouted.
Peggy peered up anxiously, waiting for
a resiionse. Suddenly two white faces ap
peared at the window. Just as suddenly they
vanished.
"A little girl and a little boy," exclaimed
Billy Belgium. "They look as If they have
fainted. I'm going lit there!"
fin tomorrow's chapter Vcaau and
Billy Rclnium hear a surprising story
from the "ghost.")

Juice that will come away without squeezing
ooze out through a fine, perfectly clean sieve.
Transfer the corn to another sieve lined
with cheesecloth or mosquito netting nnd set
In the open nlr. raised upon sticks no tho air
can get at tlje under side. Stir frequently,
gently, so as not to break the grains Then
transfer to tissue paper and lay upon the
giatlng of an open oven. In a day the com

Potato Salad and Salad Balls
Boll eight potntoes In their skins; peel and
set aside until they are cold Slice them nnd
sprinkle them with a little grated onion, un
less a strong onion flavor Is wished, in which
rip use more of the vegetable. Season with
pepper and salt, pouring over nil five table
spoontuls of oil that has been well mixed
with two tablespoonfulR of vinegar Toss
nnd stir all together and set upon Ice until
wanleu.
And this when there Is mashed potato left
from yesterday In the refrigerator (don't
think It must be made Into cakes or
croquettes in hot weather) :
Add to the left-over mashed potatoes two
or three tablespoonfuls of vinegar; the same
of olive oil, two teaspoonfuls of grated onion,
or "less, nccording to taste. Make Into little
balls. If desired, parsley may be chopped
and added. These are dainty to serve on let
tuce leaves as a salad, with boiled dressing or
mayonnaise Marlon Harland's Corner, In

Riihrit Fruit on Old Vines
The famous grapevino at Hampton Court,
England, Is probably the oldest large grape
vine In the world. As Its keeper was telling
a visitor how many clusters of grapes It bore,
the visitor's attention was called to the fact
that the grapes were small "Yes," the
keeper replied, "an old vino cannot bear as
large grapes and as large clusters as a young
one, but they nre rlther and sweeter and
finer In flavor. They are for the table of the
Queen" In one thing tjils grapevine differs
from the best of old Chrlstlnns. In the real,
true sense, the old Christian not only bears
the richest, sweetest fruit, but he bears an
Increase In quantity In correspondence with
Increase in growth In grace or In the Christ
Image. The Christian Herald.
Joy in One's Work
Joy In one's work Is the consummate tool
without which the work may be done indeed,

Thoroughly aroused, the others redoubled
their exertions The magnet remained sta
tionary for a few seconds, tho llnna support
ing It tightening with every revolution of,the
drumhead at which tho men were laboring.
Then It slowly disappeared downward, tho
liana uncoiling Itself, thus reversing the
movement that before had carried It upw-nrd
There was a gradual Increase In the mo
mentum of Its descent, following by the
splashing sound caused hy the Impnct of a
heavy body upon the surface of a pool of wa
ter; after which tho liana wns paid out un
til its full length when It suddenly slack
ened and came to a full stop.
"There. Mrs. Quayle, Is jour water," an
nounced I-elchlon.
"Water!" sneerlngly echoed a voice from
the dnrkness behind them. "Say. ratherj

Letting go the handle of the windlass. thevJ

There nt one side of the rocky projection
itood Itaoul, pale and hnggard, the light of
his lamp extinguished.
"I suspected this." ho said, a If his sud
den reappearance among them were the
most natural thing In the world, "t knew
from the direction of the path that It led
back to the lake. T have been trying to
reach this place for years Oh, yes! I had
heard something about It before I don't
ilcnv that But, of course, I expected to stay
bj ou. So, when ou stnrted to leave the
cave I came back, expecting to rejoin you.
As I wns examining the mnchlne I wns at
tacked by two men. thrown to tho ground
nnd left unconscious. I camo to myself a
few minutes ngo In tlmo to congratulate
ou, It seems, upon solving the mystery of
the cave"
"This is Btrange," said Lelghton coldly,
"vou left us, without a word, at a time when
vou were needed The attack that ou say
was made upon you we should have heard.
But we have heard nothing"
"Believe me or not, as you like; It Is true."
wai the sullen reply.
"Whv do you say we have the secret of
Guatavlta?"
"Look '"
Itaoul pointed to the projection In the wall
behind which the Black Mngnet had disap
peared It was not a shelf, ns they had at
first supposed, hut the opening of a shaft,
or well, that slanted downward nt an angle
thnt n the course of fifty feet or less would
reach considerably beyond the vertical line
of the cave's wall In shape this shaft wns
iblong. slightly larger in length and In
breadth than tho Black Magnet It was evi
dently of artificial origin. Its four walls be
ing perfectly smooth nnd without Irregulari
ties of line liven by one who had not seen
the magnet descend Into this shaft. Its In
tended use ns a sort of runwav for raising
nnd lowering heavy bodies would be quickly
recognized But where It led to wns another
matter. One thing was easily discovered:
where It reached a point some twenty feet
below the level of the cave's floor the shaft
was filled with water. Beyond this, of
course, nothing could be made out. It was
to the bottom of the pool thus Indicated that
the mngnet had plunged.
"It Is a well hewn out of the rock by In
dians or perhnps by Spaniards digging for
gold," said I.elghton.
"I believe that we are the first white peo
ple who have ever stood In this place." said
Itaoul. then ndded, "unless David Meudon
wns here three ears ngo"
"But what Is It about?" demanded Mi
randa Impatiently "What for Is the mag
net, nnd this well, and this machine?"
"I'ull up the magnet and see for yourself,"
was the laconic reply.
' faramha ' That will be Impossible," pro
tested the doctor, not relishing the prospect
of another turn at the machine.
"It Is the logical thing to do," agreed
I.elghton.
The rest shared Miranda's aversion to an
other bout at the winch; but I.elghton, back
ed by Bapul Aithur, finally persuaded them
that their only hope of escape from the cave
depended on keeping at this puzzle until
they had solved It, and that the first step In
this direction was to hoist the Black Magnet
from Its watery resting place at the bottom
of the shaft. Reluctantly obeying the com-

Tiey could hear the far-off swirl nf th. wol

it. Minutes that seemed to lengthen Into
nours passed without appreciable result;
Then, nt last, they heard the water rlsln aa
the magnet reached tho mouth of the shaft.'
There was an additional Btraln on the liana,
followed by the noise of a commotion In the'
subterranean pool as the liquid streams
poured back from the emerging: body.
But still the end to their work was not In
sight. With every turn of the handle the
nelght of the body at which they were pull
lng seemed to Increase. Mrs. Quayle, sole
spectator of what was happening, watched
the opening of the well with dismal appre
hension, convinced that some dreadful trans
formation had taken place In Its hidden
depths. AVhen the top of the magnet finally
rose Into view she shrieked hysterically. To
her notion the great black body had an tin
canny look; It had turned Into a devil, for
aught she knew, filled with evil designs
ngalnst them. Anything that was super-
naturally horrible, Bhe believed, could happen
In this cave and there was enough In her
recent experiences. Indeed, to give some color
to, her belief,
But, devil or djlnn. the water dripped
and splashed In sparkling runlets from the
shining body of the Black Magnet that had
gained In luster since Its Bubmerslon in the
well. It seemed more nllve than before, more
capable of exerting the mysterious force that
had played such pranks with Mrs. Quayle's
jewelry. As It cleared the top of the well the

Itself from the socket In the wall and slowly
swung back into Its original position between
the two uprights of the machine. Here, as
before, n. reverse motion took place. The
Black Magnet was poised for a moment in
the nlr. It then descended to the ground,
resting, finally, In the same spot where the
explorers first discovered It.
A sigh of relief escaped them. Hoisting
heavy weights was not much to their taBte
and they were glad the task was over. Then
they rubbed their cjes, half expecting to see
something miraculous, some sudden transfor
mation as a result of their labors. But the
Black Magnet, except for the brilliance due
to Its bath In the depths of the earth, looked
exactly as It was before. Thls.,lt must bo
confessed, wns disappointing to those who
hnd been promised great rewards for toiling
ho patiently at the windlass. Baoul had
declared the experiment would solve the se
cret of Gulitavlta. But" they failed to see how
a wet rock or bar of metal, whichever It
might be with mud sticking to It, had any
connection with u secret. Itaoul, however,
was not discontented. Getting to work on
the magnet, he examined minutely every Inch
of Its surface. At first he found nothing.
Then, to the amazement of the others, he
extracted from one of the large fissures In
the magnet a thin disk encrusted with the
microscopic growths that form on metals
that are long subjected to the action of water.
This disk proved its metallic nature by the
force needed to release It from the magnet.
Much of the brown matter sticking to It
was wiped away with a cloth, the more
tenacious growth beneath was rubbed nnd
scraped with a sharp stone. When the scour
ing wa" finished Itaoul triumphantly held
up the disk. It was a dazzling plate of gold,
thin and flexible, rudely carved to resemble
a human being. In size It was not more
than the palm of one's hand, somewhat ot
that shape, n trifle longer and narrower,
with a projection, intended to depict a marl's
head, face nnd neck, like a pyramid standing
on Its apex, upon which were traced in em
bossed lines three loops to represent the
mouth and eyes, with another line running
down the middle, long and straight, to repre
sent the nose. The body of the flguro wa)
similarly carved raised lines folded over'
the stomach for arms, with various loops,,
and colls around the neck and chest. Intended,
doubtless, to Indicate the ornaments and k
Insignia of rank worn by the Image or,
rather, the hiimnn being or god for which
It stood All this was done In the finest gold
tracery, which. If Jt lacked some of the
subletles of the goldsmith's art as we know
It. was expressed, nevertheless, with admir
able delicacy and firmness. In the head of
the flguro was a round hole showing, doubt
less, that the disk was worn as a pendant
by Its owner, or was hung as a votive offer
ing before his or her household deity.
