Chamber Cuts
Budget $18,804
h, Economy Policy Tliie Year
Will Not Reduce Effi
ciency. Says Powell.
A cut nf $18,804 In the budget of
the Chamber of Commerce for the
ensuing year was voted by the execu
tive committee Tuesday noon.
As a. result of this derision the
bureau of publicity must operate on
$17,000. compared to $29,611 last > ear
office salaries must be paid with
$28,400, compared to $3.'t.73') last year,
and the dining room on $6,000, rpm
pared to $11,242 last year. ^
The reduction jn salaries is nc
counted for principally by the reduc
tion in the pay of the commissioner^
which is now $6.non, just half ths
amount paid the former commission
er Another reduction is made pns
slblr hy the smaller deficit In dining
room operation since the women’s
division has taken charge, of it.
Total expense?. f(»r the ensuing year
v-ill amount to $125,000 if the ap
proved new budget is carried out,
compared to $143,801 spent the last
year.
“The. reduction indicates no lessen
ing of activities or services rendered
by the chamber,’’ said Commissioner
Fowell. “The smaller budget is being
made possible by economies which
will in no way lessen the efficiency. ’<
The revenue for the ensuing yraV
is expected to amount to $111,150, de
ri\ed as follows: Pledges and mem
bership. $104,650; income from pool
room and cigars, $2,500. and collec
tions in traffic department, $1,000.

Hie .Inking Bet That Dicky Made
Madge.
Dicky was so absurd In his anxiety
to have me warn Lillian against in
vestigating, the Marks family that the
impulse to laugh almost got the bet
ter of Uie cold flnger which was rap
idly taking possession of me.
"She’ll only make herself ridiou-_
Inns. ’ he had just said, with as much |
seriousness as if h* really believed |
what b° was «*avl9g. Vet 1 knew |
that lie yielded to no one in his ad- i
miration fob Lillian's courage, sn-l
gacity and resourcefulness.
If anyone else had made this
statement his own lips had ju«t ut
tered he would have been the first to
declare heatedly that while Lillian
might he mistaken, it waif Impossible
for her to he absurd. The fact that
he could speak of her in such slight
ing terms argued a most unusual
state of his mind.
He was afraid, that was it. no*- for
himself, but of some danger that
menaced Mollie Fawcett. There could
l»e no other reason for $ his sudden
strenuous objection to Lillian’s occu
pancy of our apartment, and the jr.
vestigation of the Marks family
which he suspected «he was making.
I longed desperately to end the
fruitless colloquy and spoke de
cisively. although mendaciously.
Tmnfctakable Belief.
"Of course. I'll tel! her, if you
I want me to, although I'll be a fool
j for my pains The only reason Lil
lian wants the apartment is for econ
omy’s sake. She has a lot of things
to see to in the city, and it will save
her hotel bills, while it will be a real j
accommodation to ns to have someone
in the apartment while we’re gone.'* |
"Too thin, old dear,” Dicky » «m 1
mented. "Any time old Lil starts |
economizing \\ cadging on h» r
friends you can put up notice that
the end of \lie world is scheduled."
1 flushed hotly. ^
"There is no need for you to be
vulgar," 1 said angrily. "I am sim
ply giving you what l believe to he
Lillian'$ reasons for staying in ou»
apartment. And so for-’’
"That was pretty raw." lie a I
initted. "and, of course, I didn't mean
k. I know ns well as you do thn. i
we’re practically all one family, with ,
no thought of giving or taking fa j
vors. So forget it. Perhaps you’re •
right. I hope so."
There was unmistakable relief h. '
his voice, and T saw that he was tv
ing to persuade himself that my in
terpret.ition nf Lillian *JI action nip
the correct one. 1 battled hard to
keep my voice calm and matter of
fact, as I answered.
"I’m sure I’m right. Look. Dicky,
here's our turn in the road. In five
more minutes we ll see Junior' ’
"There Yon tin Again!” ^
"Not if you don’t take a corner
bet ten than that," Dicky rejoined
critically. "You swung out alto
get her* ton far."
Ordinarily 1 would have* resented
the stricture hotly, for Dicky s critl
clams*of faults in my driving which
he constantly' commits himself make
me furious, but I was so 1 hankful to
have avoided further embarrassing
discussion of Lillian's activities that
I buttoned my lips tightly together
and opened them only when wo were
within half a mile nf our own gate.
“I hope lie’s all right,*’ 1 said with
the worry which always besets me
when away from mv little lad.
"There you go again!” DU ky ex
claimed, but T knew that the iuiti
tion in his voice was directed as
much against his own concern is
mine. "What else could he he hut
all right? Nothing had happened
when you telephoned from Mrs. Dur
kee's before we started."
"Yes, hut that was oyer three
hours ago." I said lugubriously.
"Anything could happen in three
hours."
"Will you shut up,” Picky de
manded, and I mentally acknnwl
edged the justice of his irritation.
Then, with a quick change of
front,Hie added w ith a sly grin at m*
"Ret he'll come to me first.”
It is an old jest of his, though
sometimes T wonder if a very real
rivalry does not lie underneath the
banter. Our little lad always runa
joyously to meet us whenever we !
return after even a short absence,
and if 1 did not manage things care
fully he always would come to my
artnn first.
There aie men who would not mind j
this marked preference of a child for j
Ids mother, but Dicky Is not one of i
them, although he never openly man
ifest s his displeasure upon the occa
sions when 1 permit Junior to follow
his own inclinations. 1'sually. how
ever, by keeping in the background
or by an adroitly worded sentence
concerning the things which his
father's pockets conceal. I am able to
send Junior running to Picky first
and serve thus to avoid the fiirtton
which T readily can see would follow
any other course of mine. j
