During the years that followed his betrayal of Peter Martin's friend- ship the man had never made friend who loved him for himself-- who believed in him or trusted him. In business circles his reputa- tion for deals that were always carefully - legal but often obvious- ly dishonest had caused the men he met to accept him only so far as their affairs made the eantract necessary. Because of the power he had through his possession of the patented process he was known, His place in the community had been fixed by what he took from the community, His habit of boasting of his possessions, of his power, and triumphs, and his way of consider- ing the people as his personal debtors had been a never-failing subject of laughing comment. Men spoke of his death In a jocular ve'n --made jests about it--wondering what he was really worth. But one and all invariably concluded their comments with some word of sin- cere sympathy for hia family. Because of the people's estima- tion of the Mill owner's character, the publication of his will created a sensation the like of which was never before known in the com- munity, One half of his estate, including the Mill, Adam Ward gave to his family, The other half he gave-to his old workman friend, Peter Martin, Millsburgh was stunned, stupe- fled with amazement and wonder, But no one outside the two families, save the Interpreter, ever knew tha real reason for the bequest, The old basket maker alone understood that this was Adam Ward's deal with God--It was the contract hy of his business Ww.

To the employees in the Mill and to the representatives of the peo- ple the annoupement of the final disposition of Adam Ward's estate was made, The house on the hill with the geantify) grounds surrounding it ecame the property of the people --with an endowment fixed for its maintenance, It was to be convert- ed into a center of community in- terest, one feature of which was to be an institute for the study of patriotism, "We have foundations for the us have to do is to work. And I'd like to see Jake Vodell or any other foreign agitator try to star another industrial war in Mills, burgh." It was the Interpreter who asked the assembied workmen to eudorsa a petition to the governor asking clemency for Sam Whaley, The ground upon which the petition was based was that the gullty prin- cipal in the crime was still at liberty--that others, still unknown, were involved with him--that Sam Whaley by his confession had sav- ed the Mill and the community from the full horrors planned by the agitator, and that under the new standard of industrial citizen ship the former follower of the anarchist might in time become a useful member of socley. ' A solemn hush fell over he com- pany when Peter Martin, Mary John and Helen were the first te sign the petition, The old house is no longer empty, deserted and forlorn. Repaired and | repainted from the front gate to the back-yard fence--with well- kept lawn, flowers and garden-- it impresses the passer-by with Its air of modest home hoppiness, To Helen 'and her mother there, to John and his wifey Mary, and to the old workman wno live in the cottage next door, the spirit of the old days has returned. The neighbors in passing always stop for a word with the gray haired woman who works among her flowers just as she used to do before the discovery of the new process, or with her swect-faced daughter, The workmen going to or from the Mill always have a smile or a word of greeting for the mother and the sister of their com- vade maneger, Nor is there a man or woman in all the city or in the country round about who does not know and love this Helen of the old house, who 1s glving herself so without reserve to the people's need, who has, as the Interpreter says, "found her- self in service." But when the deep tones of the Mill whistle sound over the city, the valley and the hillside, there is a look in Helen's eyes that only those who know her best urder- stand. And often in 'these days the neighborhood of the old house rings with the merry voices of Bobby and Maggie and their play- mates, From the Flats--({rom the tenement house--from the homes of the laborers, they come, these children, to this beautiful woman who loves them all and who calls them, somewhat, fancifully, her "jewels of happiness." "Yer see," explained little Mag- gle, "the princess lady, sne jest couldn't help findin' them there happiness jewels--'cause her heart was so kind--jest like the inter preter said." THE END THE CLINGING WIFE HANDICAPS FAMILY "| more or less definite neutralization London, April 16.--With the end of King Amanullah's visit to this country coinciding not only with the curiously reserved official de- nials that an Anglo-African treaty was negotiated during his stay here, and also with the report that the Eastern ruler's planned visit ta Moscow may be "deferred," a new round seems to be opening in the diplomatic tussle between |. Great Britain and the Soviet. That no secret treaty--complete with the establishment of the British Military Mission fn Kabul and the flotation of the Afghan loan on the London market--such as the French newspapers claim to have bared, has been signed between the ruler of the buffer state be- tween India and the Soviet and the British Government may bé regard- ed as certain. At the same time there is scarcely less doubt that conversations have been held be- tween Amanullah and Sir Austen Chamberlain looking towards a of the Soviet influence on the pol- icy in Afghanistan. Efforts in this direction would, in fact, naturally be equal to what apparently was the official British policy during the Afghan mon- arch's visit to impress him with the visible testimony of the British Bmpire's land and sea and air power. The preliminary success of this policy will be registered if Amanullah should, as the reports indicate, finally abandon his scheduled visit to Moscow as the first chief of state to go to the Soviet capital since the Bolshevik Revolution--though, as already pointed out in these dispatches in some qaarters here it is felt the British hospitality will have heen a trifle overdone if it deprives tho Afghan king 'of the opportunity of drawing his own comparisons, from personal observation, between the evident status of the development of Britain and Russia. Observers of Sir Austen's latest "informal" conversations--which, in accordance with the precedent now well established by the British Foreign Secretary, may lead to no- thing at all or to diplomatic hap- penings of the first .magnitude-- link them up with another set of conversations equally "informal" which Downing Street is known to be watching with the closest in- terest, These are conversations coincidently staged in Rome be- tween Mussolini and Andrew Mich- alopoulos and Tewkik Rushdi Bey, the foreign ministers of Greece I ll i gs E Ed Hi § nN and Turkey, respectively, a aa Don't rip off the old roof!

With John and me and Male Career BROOKLYN, April 3,--The mid- Victorian clinging type of wife and the nagging wife who insists she is going to put ambition into her hus- band were listed among the serious handicaps confronting many men by Professor Harry A, Overstreet, head of the department of philosophy, at the College of the City of New York, who delivered the third in a series of four addresses recently on "The Psychology of Personality" at the Central Y.M.C.A, His topic was "Overcoming Your Handicaps." The speaker divided handicaps into two types, internal and exter- nal. He said in part: "What are the handicaps of per. sonality? Steinmetz was a hunch- back, but became one of the great- est electrical wizards of his time. An organic inferiority is Inherited. Steinmetz, whether consciously cr unconsciously, went into a compen- sating activity in his youth and did not try to be an athlete, The great Alfred Adler, of Vienna, says that if one has on inferiority complex he does not get anywhere." Among the outside handicaps Professor Overstreet listed "stupid parents" and said that many eases of shyness can be traced to unwise parents. "Take a shotgun and kill the father who says to his shy son, 'Look at John blush,' " the speaker advised. Fear, shyness and depres- sion were described as some of the more important handicaps which come from within an individug), Professor Overstreet continued: | "The race has hypnotized itself into a belief that sex is one of the most important things in life.
