And partly about something else, Constance doesn't want to marry me now, you know." "80 she tells me, She's discov. ered after all these years that it's young Clayton she wants. I don't interfere with Constances happiness Jerry. And I don't mind telling you frankly that I regard Clayton as a far better mateh for her--not just in social and financial ways, but be. cause temperamentally they're bet- ter suited, Connle loves to run things. She's my daughter, And Clayton is used to ylelding to her." "I left them together in the lib- rary just now, I want Connie to be happy, too, you know, But what T mostly want to talk-to you about is how much IT owe you," "Money? You owe me?" "Yes, sir. I want to know how much the flight of the Golden Girl cost, I kept track of expenses pretty well until the last few days, then we went pretty much haywire over last minute preparations, I want te know just how much it is altogethe er." "Why?" "I want to pay it back, There's By BARBARA WEBB my share of the prize money and there are some other things I can do to get my share of the expense together." Mr, Terry laughed, ing very smusing, Corbett, Yon eouldn't pay that money back to me if you tried all year, I've had more than $100,000 worth of fun out of it, Bo has Connie, On the practicle side I really owe you money, The success of your trip sent alr stocks higher than the Golden Girl flew herself, T cleaned up half a milion on my alr holdings, and I regard them as on a more substantial basis than they have ever heen before," Jerry's relief showed in his'face. "When you put it that way" he began, "I do put it that way, Don't say another word to me about paying back a penny of what it cost to equip the Golden Girl, Now there's another thing. Clayton tells me this invention of Mr. Harper's has got a real future. I think you and yor buddy, France are the fellows to push it, I'm willing to put some money in it, and I suggest we or. ganize a company with you, France and Clayton as the active organize ers and workers and me as the chief packer to get the thing on the market." "It's mighty good of you to In- clude me, sir, but I don't believe I ean give up flying, I'm first and tart a pilot, and T won't eve? be much else, hut Fred ought to jump at the chance," "Let's hava him up." Pred joined them in a few min- utes, looking far better than when the Golden Girl had started, Mr, Terry explained the matter under discussion, "You're the man with the most practical experience, since our friend Jerry wants to stick to fiying, you ought to he the president of the corporation, let Clayton act treasurer under my direction, and with certain shares "You're be- GOLDEN GIRL of stock allotted to Miss NMarpsr, who will control the patent rights, we'll soon be ready to go," "That sounds fine," Fred sald, "I'm out of the active flying ranks from now on anyway, and there's nothing I'd like better than devel. oping something in the aviation line." They talked a little longer, Jerry fidgeting on his ehair, impatient to find So-s0, It seemed an age before Mr, Terry dismissed them, after ap pointing an hour for a conference the following day.. Jerry drew » long breath as he left the room, "Pree, white and twent-one" he sald to Fred. "Connie's given me the gate, fellow you've igven So-sc the gate,~and now I'm off to see it we can't console each other." "Good luck." Fred's. tone was. hearty and he himself was surpris. ed at how little troubled he felt at this conclusive sign of So-so's, loss, Henceforth his lite would be bound up in the progress of a great enterprise, In time he would forget that he had spent years withing for the moon. "Good luck," he said again, and turned aside, Jerry knocked at So-s0"s room, No answer, He opened it a trifle and peered in, It was empty, "Looking for 80-50?" Connie call ed up to him, "Lam." "She's gone out to the Crowsnest, sald she couldn't wait any lenge: to see it and would be back to spend the night, I sent Chloe with her in the town ear." ' pr me take your roadster, Con- nle." .

"Then there is the question of im- migration," said His Lordship. "The United States have solved their prob- lem by keeping everyone out, We are trying to solve it by letting every- one in, And I would like to know who will make them all into good citizens, You, the members of the Catholic Women's League, can do some good, You are 'the only articu- late organization of Catholics in Canada, And you can call or that supernatural backing of the church which will help you to. solve prob- lems. "You know," he continued, "we have undeveloped natural resources in Canada. But we also have souls. And you must never stop your. work until you have achieved-not a half solution--but a complete solution of your problems in a Catholic spirit." Raised $227,000 : The various subdivisions of ~ the Catholic Women's League through- out the Dominion raised $227,000 dur- ing the past year, according to a re- port presented by Mrs, M, J.

J. D, Forbes, Archbi- shop of Ottawa, delivered an address on "The Problems of Higher Educa- tion," dealing. principally, with problem of the higher education womanhood, "The Church," he said, "has for of | long centuries been accused of stifling the growth of womanhood, This ac- {| cusation they claim to base on fact." || The speaker then proceeded to show, by tracing the spiritual growth and activities of women throughout the centuries from the fall of the Ro- man Empire to the present day, that this claim could be reduced to noth. ing. "Christianity," according to Arch. bishop Forbes, "has restored to wo. men Her soul. Woman has her place in the church and God has deposited in the soifl of woman as well as in the soul ¢f man faculties capable of grasping 'goodness and the roads leadings to Him" He also pointed out the fact that women were en- titled to the fullest development so far as higher education was concern- ed. In conclusion he praised the work undertaken by the Catholic Wo- men's League towards the education of young girls, The National President, Mrs. J, 1 Duggan, exercised her privilege of naming the various conveners, Mrs Rose MclInerry, Guelph, was nemin. ated convener of amendments, ° Mrs, F.

It had been hoped that the com- mittee meeting which started on Wednesday would have ended at noon Thursday, but ewing to the animated character of the debate the session was considerably prolonged. Ludwig Kasti, second German dele. gate at the recent Paris conference of experts in addressing the federa. tion's executive committee ardently defended the Young plan. The spokesman for the German Chemi- cal and Finishing Industries support. ed Kistal but the representatives of the so-called "heavy industries," nots ably coal, iron and steel, attacked the Young plan asserting that German industry must reject it, Finance Statistics Final figures for the Year 1928 end. ing March 31, were published by the Ministry of Finance showing that the ordinary Budget revenue totalled 10,277,600,000 marks (approximately $2,466,624,000) and expenditure of 10, 231,100,000 marks (approximately $2, 455,464,000) leaving a surplus of 40,- £00,000 marks (approximately §l11,- Extraordinary revenue totalled 216,- 800,000 marks (about $52,032,000) und extraordinary expenditure 1,121,300, 000 marks (about $269,112,000) leaving a deficit 'of 904,500,000 marks (ap- proximately $217,080,000).

AL revelations of murder and cannibalism in Moldavg Weod, on the Slovak-Hungarian border, The young leader of the band, Alexander Silke, is accused of sev. eral murders. Shortly after his arrest he confessed that the flesh of many of his victims had been cooked and eaten, A Cannibalism, however, is not indict- able as a crime in Czecho-Slovakia, being outside the provisions of the penal code! : The police believe that the gang was responsible for at least 25 deaths the murdered persons being frontier smugglers and pedlars whose move. ments would not have been so closely could be made in subsequent naval] INGZECHO-SLOVAKIA| 1t is alleged that the usual method of the gypsies with their victims, men r women, was to detain them in iendly conversation till one of the band could approach stealthily from hind with an axe and strike a mur- derous blow, The rest was simple, Human bones, many of which have been found and 'will be produced in evidence, were buried in lonely spots in dense forests, The accused them- selves revealed the hiding places, The gypsies, who are represented by several counsel, will plead "that they 'were driven to crime by pri. vation and hunger, During the two' years that have elapsed since the arrest all the prise oners have developed tuberculosis, Most of them are undersized and are deaf mutes, Filke was among the 17 men and two women charged with six mur- ders and many robberies, He told the judges that he be- lieved il a devil, but not in God, and denied all his previous confessions of guilt, "Flogged by Police" He declared that the lice beat him until he said what they wanted, and 'that he was ready to confess to flogging. rulo Barnabas, another. of the men charged, was able to prove an alibi, He was in a hospital at Kosice receiving 'eye treatment on the date of a murder attributed to him, The judge later lost patience and cried to the prisoners: "You have all confessed to murders and now you say 'that you have never seen any murders committed," The gypsies shouted in chorus: "We were taken to a forest by po- licemen, bound to trees, and flogged until, we agreed to 'everything they said, The judge then remarked: "I have never heard of policemen flogging prisoners, One of the prisoners, Imre Szigar, retorted: "We had to feel it, and feeling is believing," ; Another prisoner, Rybar, said that olice officers extorted a confession rom him, by wedging, sharpened pen. cils under his finger nails, Evidently the judge intends to en- force a strong censorship on the pub- lication of the cannibalistic details and the allegations against the po- lice. He confiscated all cameras produced ..in the courtroom and threatened' to exclude any press re- presentative whose. journals published exaggerated reports, CARLSHAD GAVE T0 BE EXPLORED Tunnel in New Mexico to be Charled by Gov- ernment a Carlsbad, N.M. = Although the Carlsbad Coverns may be safely tra- versed by visitors for many miles through wide and high natural tun. nels and many vast and magnificent chamabers, only 'a comparatively small part of this underground wonder of the world has as yet been explored, occording to Captain Thomas Boles, superintendent. of this National 'Park, An attempt will be made during. the coming summer to reach the bottom to explore the several lateral tunnels which, up, to. this time, have never 'degenerate in appearance, and several |. anything rather than endure further|, Th Rock of Ages, the giant of the so-called "Bottomless Pit" and' been trod by human feet, at least not in_modern, times, : .

Several weeks ago Miss Ear- hart visited the big cave and was en. chanted by its Strange sights, Captain Boles permitted her to take 4 lantern and penetrate for some dis- tance alone along one of the tunnets which had never been explored, That little adventure gave her a desire to take up the exploration work on a larger. scale 'and' she obtained the promise of Captain Boles to allow her to "go where no one else has ever been. It is already known that the cav- erng extend into Texas, and one of the improvements which probably will be made this year is the open- ing of an entrance in that state and the construction of a modern highway to, it from some point on the southern transcontinental route, i The electric lighting system of the tunnels and rooms will be extended, Indirect. lighting is used in the new system, which has been in process of installation. in the.last three months, ere are big drums of light 2,00 candle power in. places in the big room, There 'are 150 smaller lights in this same room, some large, some tiny, There are 285 lights in all in the system, so far as it has heen ex- tended.

Milk productién has developed to such an extent that it has become the economic backbone and almost the characteristic feature of practically all the Jewish colonies established since the war. and of some pre-war times, Saal Statistics complied by the Zionist executive show that the sale of dairy produce has doubled within the last two years, so that an analogous in. crease in production may be assumed. Already the sale of milk is respon. sible, for about 28 per cent of the gross income of the colonies. its share in the nt income being considerably higher about 50 per cent, : This branch of agriculture which, in Biblical times, had spread the fame of Palestine, had wholly declined.

They plough the land with the same implement as was used by Abraham--an astart shaped piece of wood into which a thick nail was driven. The cattle is of the poorest kind, The Arab, cow, which the colonists found on arrival, only produces 700 liters of milk a year, as compared to approximately 3,600 liters in European countries, The Jewish colonizing authorities brought pure bred cattle from Europe and Syria. and tried to acclimatize it, Many of the first attempts failed, the animals became sick and died, Finally, however, some were found which were able to adapt themselves to the country and experiments in cross-breeding with native cattle were successful. Today the yield per cow has risen to 2,500 liters annually, in some instances the J,000 liter mark already has been reached. v Whereas milk in former times was regarded as a sort of luxury, for which oil was to a great extent sub- stituted, the population has now grown used to a milk consumption ap- roaching the European standard. foreover, the increased production has created a thriving butter indus- try. No more is the immigrant from Western countries forced to eat im- ported butter many years old. He can have fresh, locally preduced but ter for breakfast. Gradually, cheese making is also coming to the fore: It only needs a greater variety in kinds, Thus life in the Holy Land, while becoming more Biblical, is at the same time becoming more up to date and provides more comforts of mo- dern life, " ' - -- While Czechoslovakia . is enjoying its greatest prosperity since the World War, its farmers are complain. ing of low prices, for their products, Disappearing 21 years ago, an Ab- erdeen,, Scotland, woman's wedding ring just has been found in the field in which it was lost, RUSSIAN PRIEST + SENTENCED 0 DI Convicted on Charges of Complicity in Minor Uprising Moscow, June 24.-Two, persons, one a priest, Peter Krivandin, have heen sentenced to death and a num- ber of others have been imprisoned on charges of complicity in a minor uprising in Moscow Provigee, Father Krivandin urged the pppu- lation of Yegorysvsk and other vil- lages to resist an order of the local Soviet for the removal of an unusual church bell and scrap metal, The bell had fallen from the church tower, and lay unnoticed. for years.
