taken aback. The girl waa Pora Yo

and her eea wers bright ami severe.
"I want to apeak to you." she auhl,
quickly. "I want to auk you about
oinethlng. Mr. i'olburn and Fred
Mitchell are the only peopls I know In
your 'frat' except you, and I haven't
seen either of them today, or Td hiivs
asked one of them."
Moat uncomfortably astonished,
Itamsey took lit hand oat of his pock
et, picked leaf from a Iliac bush he
side the path, and put the stem of the
leaf seriously Into a corner of III
mouth, before finding anything to ssy.
"Well well, all right," ho Anally re
aponded. "I'll tell you If It any
thing I know about."
"You know shout It," said Pora.
"That la, you certainly do If you were
at your 'frat meeting last night.
Were you?"
"Yes, I was there," lUmaey an
swtred, wondering what In the world
she wanted to know, though he sup
posed vaguely that It must be some
thing shout Colhurn, whom he had
several times seen walking with her.
"Of course I couldn't tell you much,"
h sdded. with an afterthought. "Yon
sea, good deal that gm-s on st a 'frnt'
meeting Isn't supposed to be tulked
about."
"Yea," she said, smiling faintly,
though with a satire thut missed lilm.
"I've been a member of a aororlty sines
September, and I think I have an Idea
of what could be told or not told.
Ruppotio we walk on. If you don't mind.
Uy quest Ion needn't embarra you."
Nevertheless, a they alowly went on
together, Ilamsey wa embarrassed.

ahured so much, sluing dally for years

sums outward experience; they had
slmost "grown up together." yet thla

together or walked together.

"I don't think so," said linmsey.
"American don't love to fight; I don't

there's some fellow that like t hunt
around for scraps, but I never raw

iided that way. Of course a football
team often has a scrapper or two on

"No," she saltl. "I think you all
really love to fight."
Hiiniscy wa roused to become argu
mentative. "I don't see where you get
the Idea. Colhurn Isn't that way. and
back at schoij there wasn't a single
boy that was anything like that."
"What !" She stopped, and turned
suddenly to face him.
"What's the matter?" he said, stop
ping, ton. Something he said had
startled her, evidently.
"How can you say such a thing?"
-he cried. "You love to tight !"
"Me?"
"You do! You love fighting. Tou
ilways have loved fighting."
He was ilumfoumled. "Why, I never
!iad a fight in my life!"
She cried out In protest of such pre-
arlcatlon.
"Well, I never did," he Insisted,
mildly.
"Why. you hail a fight about me!"
"No, I didn't."
"With Wesley Bender!"
Ilamsey chuckled. "That wasn't a
fight !"
"It wasn't?"
"Nothing like one. We were Just
gnyln him about about gettln" slicked
np, kind of, because he sat In front of
you; and lie hit me with his hook (trap
and I chased him off. Gracious, no;
that wasn't a fight !"
"But you fought Linskl only last
fall."
Ramsey chuckled again. That
wasn't even as much like a fight at the
one with Wesley. I Just told thl
I.I n ski I was coin' to give hi in a punch
In the sn I just told him to look
out because I waa goln' to hit him, and
then I did It. and waited to see if he
wanted to do anything about It, and he
didn't That's all there was to It, and
It wasn't shy more like fighting than
than feeding chickens Is."
She laughed dolefully. "It seem
to me rather more like it than that I"
"Well. It wasn't."
They had begun to walk on again,
and Itamsey waa aware that they had
passed the "frat house," where his
dinner was probably growing cold. He
was aware of this, but not sharply or
Insistently. Curiously enough, he did
not think about It. He had begun to
find something pleasant In the odd In
terview, and in walking beside a girl.

The house, In which the appropria

to act earlier than the senate, anil
adopted a plan for a single enlarged

a plan was worked out under which

Idea New in This Country.
The whole question of the budget
system Is new yet. The system is
a tremendous effort to Improve the or
ganization of the government and to
group Itx activities in such a way that
the public at large can see them am)
the average citizen may know what
his government is doing with the
money it takes from hi in In taxes.
The 1'resldont, when he came Into
office, pleinltxl for more business In
government. The budget system Is
one of the means undertaken to bring
this nhout. In the business world
the president of a corporation and gen
eral managers ure the executives. They
propose lines of policy to the board of
director involving various exjiendl
tures. The board of direr-tors, who
represent the slts-kholders of the cor
Hiratlon. pass upon these proxisals.
Itouglily speaking, the President of
the I'nited States and his cabinet may
be considered the executives of the
country, the congress may be consid
ered the hoard of directors and the
people are the stockholder of the gov
ernment. The executive submits, with
the assistance of bis cabinet and the
bureau of the budget, the estimates of
what Is needed for the government
to the congress) or hoard of directors,
who In turn pass upon these matters
for the people or stockholders of the
government. Hut congress reserves
to Itself the right to cut down or add
to these estimates na It deem wise,
The suggestion was made that In
the process of evolution of the budget
system there shall eventually be
formed a Joint congressional budget
committee. This Joint committee's
duties would be to canvass both the
estimates of the revenue for the en
suing fiscal year and the estimates
submitted by the executive of expendi
tures for the government, and then
determine what the total amount of
the expenditures for that year should
be, and allocate a maximum to be ex
pended by the various branches of
the government, as, for Instance, the
army, the navy, the Pepartment of Ag
rlculture, etc. Then only by a sus
pension nf the rules of the house and
venule would It be possible to exceed
this uinoiint. Such a plan, they hold,
would still further tend to put more
"business in the government."
