The Ladder to the Family's Affections DECLARES STOKES MISLED HIMSELF CHICAGO, Feb. 6. "Misled—He misled himself." "That's all the misleading there was when W. E. D. Stokes started the divorce suit in which he tried to be smirch my name and reputation." The above was the indignant statement today of Mrs. Helen Elwood Stokes on her arrival in Chicago from Denver to press her suit against the aged and eccentric New York millionaire on charges of conspiring to defame. "I might have known he'd try to rest his defense on some such statement as that," she said when informed that her husband had indicated he had been duped into believing some of the indictments with which he had charged his pretty young titan haired wife. "However, he can't get away with that," she continued. "I have the very picture album from which he stole the kodak prints which he presented as evidence right here with me," Mrs. Stokes referred to the charge brought by her husband that she once was an inmate of a notorious Chicago resort. "I've come to Chicago simply to be on hand when a fight that means so much to me is going on. I can't do much, in all probability, but I must be where I can keep in close touch with all developments. I intend to stay here until the last word is said on the subject and I hope it will be mine, too." Mrs. Stokes was accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Arthur Scott Miller, and her mother's close friend, Mrs. Albert Meservey. Mrs. Stokes wore a long clinging wrap of seal with mink collar and cuffs, a black dress and a tiny brimmed hat of black. Her noticeably slim ankles were clad in sheerest chiffon hosiery and she wore a choker necklace of barque pearls. The flat fawn colored bag she carried was set with amber A Little Talk on Thrift By S. W. STRAUS (President American Society for Thrift) In connection with the recent activities commemorating the anniversary of Benjamin Franklin's birth, it was brought out that he was our first American philanthropist. He exemplified the relationship between true thrift and true philanthropy. There are those, to be sure, who would call thrift the antithesis of philanthropic action. But, as Franklin proved in his own life, the same impulses which made it possible for him to thrive led him to assist others to do so. No man succeeds who is thoroly selfish. Continued selfishness begs narrowness of vision. It arrests personal progress because it leads one ever toward more restricted viewpoints. To thrive in reality one must be alive to the needs of others. One must be in tune with the times. One must be able to view life in its complexities. The spirit which actuates us to look out for ourselves, leads us to look out for others. In connection with Franklin's philanthropies, it was said that he always endenyored to assist others to be of the greatest usefulness to themselves. One of his plans was to make loans with the provision that the debt, instead of being repaid to him, should be turned over to some worthy person in need of such assistance. In this way he felt he could do the greatest amount of good with the sum of money at his disposal. One of the finest possible tributes to the value of thrift lies in the fact that it arouses impulses within us to see others prosper as well as ourselves. One cannot take up those practices which result in one's own rightful well being without being led to acts that are helpful to others who are worthy of assistance. I intend to stay here until the last word is said on the subject and I hope it will be mine, too." Mrs. Stokes was accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Arthur Scott Miller, and her mother's close friend, Mrs. Albert Meservey.

Her noticeably slim ankles were clad in sheerest chiffon hosiery and she wore a choker necklace of barque pearls. The flat fawn colored bag she carried was set with amber brilliants. Only three jurymen were in the box when the trial was resumed. BUENA PARK BUENA PARK, Feb. 6.
