"Why, my dear," said Mrs. Stevens,
bustling' into the apartment, "thiß is
the first 1 have heard anything about.
Warren's accident. Why didn't you
let me know: perhaps we might have
done something to help you."
"But there was really nothing to
do." explained Helen. "Of course,
I wns terribly worried until T heard
but Bob did everything possible, anil
then we have insurance, so there Is
really nothing to worry about."
"But, my dear, I heard he was out
with his stenographer."
i Helen swallowed hard and turned
her face away a moment. It was
going to lie harder than she had
imagined to bluff it out. Then she
i turned to Mrs. Stevens calmly and
said:
"Wherever did you hear such an
absurd story. Of course, Warren is
supposed to have done something
behind my back, and I am supposed
to be home in sackcloth and ashes
meditating on a divorce. Is that the
story ?"
Mrs. Stevens wns staring curiously
at Helen.
"Do you mean to tell me that it
isn't true?"
"Well, that depends upon how
much you have heara, and what you
believe."
"I am anxious to hear from the
beginning, so hurry and tell me."
Helen was gaining poise as she
went along, and now she continued
promptly.
"Well, if you really did hear a
weird story, all that I can do is
to correct it. Warren did have Miss
Evans out in the oar that night, but
would you mind telling me where you
heard the fact?"
Helen Makes a Bold KfTort to Be Calm
"Why, the men downtown were talk
ing about it. Mr. Stevens told me
about it, and, of course, Helen. I have
not mentioned it to anyone. I under
stood that you would tell nie all that I
wanted to know. I remember the
time that I came to you about Will. I
shall never forget it, never."
Helen had no idea of confiiding In
Mrs. Stevens, much as she liked her
for a friend.
"The story goes," went oil Mrs. Stev
ens, "that Warren had an accident on
the Boston Post road, and that you
demandeu that he discharge the girl
immediately. Is it true so far?"
"In the main. As I sajd, Warren
did take her out in his car. and I
knew she was doing so.
"Isn't it strange," Helen went on.
"how things like this are exaggerated?
Warren met Miss Evans as he was
going to the lodge meeting. She had
been having dinner with a girl friend
and was hurrying home. She stopped
before taking the subway to telephone
her mother out in Westchester and, to
her amazement, was told she was
very ill.
"Then she missed the train and
Warren offered to take her home. He
Bell Telephone Co. Makes
Big Gains During 1915
That prosperity is still continuing
in Harrisburg is proven by the figures
given by S. B. Watts, local manager of
the Bell Telephone Company of Penn
sylvania. in an interview this morning.
He stated that on the first day of De
cember. 1914, the Bell Telephone Com
pany had in service on the Harrisburg
exchange 8,965 telephones, and on the
first of December, 1915, there were in
service 9,754 stations, or a gain of 669
stations, and that the business of the
first, eleven months of 1915 shows an
increase of 149 stations over the same
period of 1914. He also stated that
it is not only in Harrisburg, but that
Hunimelstown shows ar gain of 89 sta
tions for the first eleven months; Mid
dletown, 15, and Steelton, 30. This
simply goes to prove that business is
picking up and that there is more
money for the people to spend for
the necessities of life.
OLDEST SUNDAY SCHOOL SCHOLAR
Special to The Telegraph
Annvllle, Pa., Dee. 8. John H. Ul
rich, a veteran of the Civil War, living
in liast Main street, holds the record of

in town. The Sunday school was or

Uliich has attended since April, 1843.
To Ward Off Winter
Complexion Ills
To keep the face smooth, white and
beautiful aJI winter, there's nothing
iiulte so good as ordinary niercollzed
wax. Hough, chapped or discolored
skin, inevitable in this weather, is
gently absorbed by the wax and re
placed by the newer fresher skin be
neath. The face exhibits no trace of
the wax, the latter being applied at bed
lime and washed oIT mornings. Creams,
powders and rouges, on the other hand,
are apt to appear conspicuous at this
season, because of alternating expan
sion and contraction of the skin, due
to changing temperatures. 1 advise
you to try this simple treatment. Get
an ounce of mercolized wax at any
drug store and use like cold cream.
This will help any skin at once, and in
a week or so the complexion will look
remarkably youthful and healthy.
Winds and flying dust often cause
squinting and other contortions which
make wrinkles. You can quickly get rid
of every wrinkle, however produced, by
using a harmless face bath made by dis
solving 1 oz. powdered saxollte in \<,
pt. witch hazel.—Advertisement.

him to go ahead."
"Then you knew where he was all
the time."
"Of course, I did, but when he didn't
come back till so late, of course I was
worried. I knew something must have
happened, and Warren didn't get a
chance to telephone until late."
"Did he get her home in time?"
"Yes. the accident happened right
near her house."
"Then it all falls flat if ybu knew
about it and approved, and are not
broken down because Warren deceived
you."
"I actually believe that you wanted
to find me miserable. I'm ashamed of
you. No, I'm not broken down unless
it is from worry. I think I grew about
ten years older that night when X
heard that Warren had had an acci
dent."
"He wasn't hurt?"
Helen Confesses She Is Rather Worn
"Just a very little In comparison,
his wrist was hr,oken."
"You poor dear! Well T must say
that you look terribly worn out and
tired."
"I am worn out and tired. I caught
could that night waiting up in negli

has made me quite a wreck. I hope
that you will correct all these dreadful
rumors that are floating around. You
must see how embarrassing they are,
for me."
"Of course, 1 do, dear, and T shall
do everything in my power for you
and Warren. I told Will that you
would tell me the truth about it. We,
have been friends for so long."
Helen smiled again to herself, and
then rose as Mrs. Stevens herself rose
to go.
Helen's head felt dizzy and her
mouth was parched and dry. She felt
almost as though she had a fever.
"I hope, Helen, that you will take
care of yourself and stay in the house
while this cold lasts," Mrs. Stevens
was saying:. I am quite worried about
you."
"I do feel miserable," Helen con
fessed honestly.
"Isn't there something T can do?"
"Not a thing, really; I am going to
lie down now. I am so glad you came
and told me the news, I should have
worried if I had heard such a rumor
from a stranger." And Mrs. Stevens,
with n warm little kins on Helen's
flushed chee, took her departure.
Helen staggered to a chair and sat
down heavily. She did feel ill. How
had she ever gone through with this
terrible ordeal? It simply would not
do. though, for her to be sick now; she
must pull herself through; and, with
and air of exhaustion, she let her head
drop against the pillow of the chair,
while tears rolled down her cheeks.

GROWTH OF
THE GARY PLAN
[Continued from Editorial Page.]
By Frederic J. Haskiti
credit for her work at home as part
credit for her work at home as part
of the industrial course.
Shop and mechanical work are an
important part of the Gary plan. The
instructors in these lines are skilled
laborers and gel regular union wages.
They instruct the boys in carpentry,
plumbing. planting, metal work,
printing and olectricity, while keeping
the school in repair and doing its
necessary daily work. Since the build
ing is in constant use, constant repair
is necessary, and the young mechanics
learn from the first to face practical
problems.
The well-equipped Gary school In
cludes a printing press, where the
pupils may get a very fair knowledge
of that trade, including photography
and engraving. The Froeliel School
now manufactures some of its own
text books, and many of the schools
take orders for outside work. The
printing plant of the Emerson school
in Gary did nearly two thousand dol
lars' worth of printing work in one
year and made a profit over all ex
penses of that department. In the
cabinet-making department the value
of the work was over three thousand
dollars, and here also the work more
than paid the expenses of the course.
The defective child and the brilliant
child are the two great problems of
the public schools. Curriculums fit
; the average child fairly well, but the
j backward one cannot keep up, and the
I bright one is idle half the time. The
I Gary plan is easily adjusted to both
oC ihese cases. A weak child may
spend most of his time in carefully
supervised play until he is strong
enough to study, and one who learns
slowly will be given plenty of time.
Promotion is by subjects, not by
grades. The brilliant, youngster can
thus go ahea.l as fast as his aptitudes
wHI carry him.
Kvpnine School*
According to this new idea, the ad
vantages of school are not merely for
children, but for any citizen who
wants education. The Gary plan com
prises evening school for men, and
last year there were more men en
rolled in the evening classes, in some
of the cities, than there were boys in
the day school. These evening schools
are divided into sections just as* the
day classes are.
The privilege of using the school
shops is also extended to all citizens.
Anyone may make anything he wishes
in the school shops by merely paying
the price of the materials.
This maintenance of night school
for adults is a great deal more expen
sive than day school, but its value to
a community Is equal to the cost, in
the opinion of most educators. For
one thing, it is the surest and quickest
way to make citizens out of aliens.
Another unique feature of the Gary
This Frees Your Skin
From Hair or Fuzz
(Toilet Tips)
The method here suggested for the
removal of superfluous hair is quick
and certain and unless the growth Is
extremely stubborn, a single applica
tion does the work. Make a stiff
paste with some powdered delatone
and water: apply this to the hairy
surface and after about 2 minutes rub
it off. wash the skin and the hairs anc
gone. To avoid disappointment, be
sure your druggist sells you delatone.

I plan is the use of the children to in- j
| struct, each other. The young peda
| gogues are graded upon their efli-
I ciency. The desire to excel before
I their fellows is, of course, a great
stimulus to effort. This feature of the
plan is the subject of a good deal of
discussion, educators disagreeing as to
_ Its value, but it has undoubtedly been
t used with success.
The Gary plan is purely and typi
cally American in its origin. It was
worked out by William R. Wirt, a
young educator who was placed in
charge of the public schools of Gary,
Indiana. Gary ia an industrial town
with a population of 30,000. There
are nineteen different nationalities
represented. To educate the children
of this motley crowd of alien laborers,
and to make good American citizens
of them with rather scant appropria
tions. was the problem that confronted
Mr. Wirt.
Out of this difficulty and this need
grew the big idea that is now attract
ing the attention of all progressive
American cities.
SAVAGE WOMEN HEALTHY
The savage lives in the open, eats
.simple foods. knows nothing of
household drudgery or social life, gets
plenty of sleep and exercise and is
perfectly healthy and strong, but the
civilized woman is a slave to home
duties and society, often becomes
run-down, nervous and physically
unfit to be a companion or wife.
