A Suggestion For Con­ gress. To start with, we know congress is not going to pay any aitention to anything we say, but since we are living in a free country where we can say what we please and get by with it we are going to offer a sug­ gestion that .we believe would beot great value to the nation at this time. We believe that every dollar that is being spent on relief projects that could be given towards bnildings up a stronger national defense should be turned in that direction. If the relief money could be spent towatds bnilding airplanes battle ships and a stronger and better army that would be second to none and at the same give those needing work on the projects, we would really be getting somewhere. We know that work for the re­ lief to be of assistance throughout the nation must not be limited to any area like ship building at sea­ port towns. However, we believe that if many of our able bodied men were given jobs that might take them away from home that (hose on relief projects who can­ not leave home would be able to get work. Money appropriated for relief work should be direct towards building a national defense that wonld be second to none in the world would be a mighty fine thing for this nation under the prevailing circumstances in Europe.

Europe’s Disadvantages One wonders why Europe must have a war for every generation and why that continent cannot remain at peace. In Europe proper there are some 23 odd nations, different rationali­ ties, different government and dif- feient languages. Their interests continually clash on every hand. The whole area is jm t about half as big as the United States. Contrast Europe with North A- merica. AU the way from the Mexi­ can border near the trooics to the North pole is inhabited by Anglo- Saxons .who speak one language and generally have a correlated standard of civilization. There isn't a fortified border and has not been in the whole area. ExceDt for the War Between the States there has not been a conflict on the entire continent of Noith America from Mexico northward.—Ex. Tennessee Holdup. The Knoxville (Tenn.l Journal: If timekeepers may with impunity demand demand “contributions” from men working fifteen days a month, at $3.12 per day—when they work at all—for campaign purposes, then New Deal abuses of the W. P. A. will continue unabatted as they have in the past, won’t they? These questions grow out of pub lication by The Journal of affidavits from two Nnox Counties, employed on W. P. A. Job 11. Swaggerty Road who aver the prior to their recent dismissal from relief rolls tbey were sandbagged by their timekeeper for $1 each for a “campaign” fund. One of these men has a wife and seven children to support; the other a wife and two children. Their complaints have gone into into Washington, and . presumably United States District Attorney James B. Frazier will get’busy at once. on. an investigation of their chargeh are established, the full penalty of punishment under - the TakiugtheLaw For a Ride. A neighbor paper carried this ad­ vertisement for a High Point mar- riage broker the other day in its “want ad” column: “Can secure your. marriage li­ cense within two hours and have you married without bloodtest or Dhysical examination and kept out of the papers. See me day or night, Sunday included.” Hand that fellow the prize for audacity! Not only is he willing to thumb his nose at the law, but pays space rates to advertise that fact. Recent legislation requires blootests and physical examination before marriage licenses are issued. But here’s a guy who assures that he can evade the law, presumably for a tee. If anybody wants to challenge him, his name and office address is a part of the advertise­ ment. Bnt because nobody is par- ticulatly interested in the matter, be gets away with it. But somebody ought to be in­ terested, for it involves the break ing of a law that in all good con­ science was enacted in the interest of public health. The chances are better than ever that such mar­ riages as this fellow proposes will resnlt in typhiiitic children or the victim of some other communicable disease, because the attempt to the law is in itself reasonable evidence thit one or both of the contracting parties couldn’t pass a bloodtest. Wben this legislation was enact ed it was predicted that it wouldn’t work; that especially in border coanlies there wonld - be an appre­ ciable falling off in rever.ue from license fees, and because officialdom wouldn't bother to see that the law is enforced, especially that which continues the requirement even when marriages are perform, d in another State. Here is an example, if you’re asking us, of why democracy doesn’t work.—Statesville Daily. - G. 0 . P. Convention Will Be Held. There will be no postponing of the National Republican Conven­ tion. For some time in and around Washington there have been efforts, put forth to force National Chair­ man John Hamilton to postpone holding the session on June 24 at Philauelphia and also to create sen timent to get the Republicans not to place a ticket in the field for President and Vice President. It appears to be just a sample of New' Deal Propaganda being spread abroad. For a ticket will be placed in the field. There wil| be most positively a campaign and unless all signs fail there will be a republi­ can elected to preside over the af­ fairs of the nation for the coming four years.. "There is absolutely no basis for the suggestion that any considera­ tion is being given to a proposal to postpone the Republican National Convention,” said Chairman Hamil­ ton. “The matter has not been suggested to me or to anyone hav­ ing to do with the arrangements for the convention now could not he postponed since a ttumbet of State Conventions have been elected pur­ suant to the Ca'.l for the Conven tion already issued. “ We will meet in' Philadelphia on June 24 as we have planned.” - chat the other evening there waSj Hatch Act must be imposed upon all nothing about either of his admin- who IimJ anything to do with the istrations to view with alarm.

Advertbing ' * Be Medaa ADVERTISE HERElI OnlyOne “Ism” Needed The State of New York, in a law Pfs ed by this year’s legislature and just signud by the Governor, has taken a long step' in what must seem to moBt Americans as the right dir­ ection. Iuthislaw it is prescribed that the State - school authorities shall designate a week during each year and' prescribe a uniform course of exercises in the public schools of the State suitable for pupils of vari­ ous ages to instill in the minds of such pupils the purpose, meaning and importance of the Bill of Rights in the Federal and State Constitu­ tions. Such exercises shall be in ad dition to any prescribed courses of study in the schools.” There is no better text book in the fundamental principles of Ameri­ canism than is contained in the first ten Amendments to the Federal Cor. stitution, which constitute the Bill of Rights. - If they are properly taught, as they have been interpreted by the Supreme Court and accepted as the guiding principle of human liberties for one hundred and fifty years, this sort of instruction will do more to set up bulwarks against the great variety of “isms” which have been imported from foreign sources than any denuniciation of the new and subverisive ideas can do. Children who have been taught from infancy the basic rights of every American and what they mean are not likely to. become infected with Communism, Fascism. Nazism or any other new-fangled isms which are based upon the idea that the Government is the boss of the peo­ ple. Youngsters who have been taught truths of the Bill of Rights will grow up with the realization that it is they and not the Govern­ ment who is the boss. It is to be hoped that the rest of the states will follow the teaching of Americanism, through study of tie Bill of Rights, compulsory in: the public schools.—Ex. A physician says, "Girls in feeb’e health should take a tramp through the woods or fields every day.” But suppose the tramp should object? In Thu Let’s AU Get Together. Isn’t it abont time for the people of this commnniiy to get a little closer together, and work in a lit­ tle closer harmony one with the other? A count 1 y- town and the farming communty surrounding it a re brothers, and the one cannot suc­ ceed without the co-operation and active assistance of the other. A farming section without its adjacent railroad and market facil­ ities would be a back number—a dead one—with little fu.ure ahead. Live farmers would shun it— would have nothing to do with it—for live men create a snrpltts, and they must have an outlet for that w bich they create. A farm adjacent to some live town and shipping facilities is worth double ehat of a piece of ground with equal fertility located 111 some obscure section of the country. The relative values of the products of the two farms would be about the same—the one high, the other low. Therefore, the farming commun­ ity is dependent upon the town and its advantages for much of the ru­ ral prosperity, for the high value or land, for the ease with which shipments are made. Farmers who believe in them­ selves, who want a prosperous com- muni.v, should encourage the town and its industries—should buy from the home dealers, «hnn!d keep the money in the Iunne community, where tt adds to the commercial life of every 1 erson. Everv dollar a farmer leeps in circul .tioti at l one si n; Iy adds that much to the riches i f his own community, to the value of bisown holdings. The town and the town mercl ant owe an equal duty to the farmer, for without his co-operation both town and merchant would perish. The town si ould make the farm­ er welcome, let him feel, that he is among friends, that it is bis town, that he has a personal interest in its welfare. The merchant should make it possible ,or the farmer 10 buv his goods as cheaply at home as he can from some foreign house, and he should keep this Iact constantly before the farmer. He should encourage the farmer by keeping reliable goods and sell­ ing them at a reasonable price. Most merchants do this, although the absense of the merchant’s ad - vertisement from the local paper keeps the farmer in ignorance of the fact. He should encourage the farmer in all ways, exhibit a brotherly feeling in spirit, and give the farm, er to understand that be is interest, ed iu his welfare as well as in the contents of his pocketbook. It has been demonstra’ed repeat­ edly rigbt here in this town that farmers can ouy as cheaply from the local dealer as they can from a foreign house. ' But the foreign dealer floods the farmer with advertising matter, while some local dealers expect to be taken on faith. And the farmer is a wise one— he takes nothing on faith. “Show Me,” is his creed. And be goes to the man who advertises —who “show him.” Now isn’t it about time for us ale to think a little, to get together, to push this community right up to the front? fJ fo V n a d v M tib e d , ^ BUSINESS T H E D AV IE RECORD, M OCKSVILLE, N. C. WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK . By LEMUEL F. PARTON (C o n s o lid a te d F e a tu re s —W N U S e rv ic e .) XJEW YORK.—In 1922, when a x daughter was born to the Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg there was confusion and embarrass- _ _ . , ment in theCaesar Received p a la c e be- Bare Dues From c a u se no- TinyLuxembOurg tow^ there a gun with which ■ to salute the royal newcomer. That was one instance in which the League of Na­ tions had fulfilled its obligation for the progressive disarmament of Eu­ rope. Never would Luxembourg menace the peace of the continent. The French gallantly rushed in a 75, with a crew, and the baby was given a thunderous welcome. Today the Grand Duchess Charlotte, her husband, Prince Felix of Bourbon-Parma and their six children are safe in France, fleeing guns which end lives rather than acclaim new life. The terror came in the night, after 21 years of peace­ ful home-keeping, In which the grand duchess had reared her children, played the piano and, being a fluent linguist, had kept abreast of French, German and English literature. She has al- , ways said that talk of war and politics was distasteful to her. As the ruler of her tiny princi­ pality she discharged her du­ ties of state with care and dili­ gence. At the end of the World war, Charlotte expressed extreme .dis­ taste for the Germans. Her elder sister, Marie Adelaide, was com­ pelled to retire as ruler, on account of her pro-German sympathies and Charlotte was elected in plebiscite which continued the last grand duchy in Europe, as against a re­ public. She is tall and handsome, 14 years old, of the House of Nas­ sau, also the House of Queen Wilhelmina of Holland, the rich­ est house in Europe. Luxem­ bourg is a land of Millet land­ scapes and haunted castles. The grand duchess has traversed it mainly on horseback, riding side-saddle. Here the new sav­ agery finds a shining mark of age-old decency and simplicity.

Mr. Morrison, who for the last nine years has been lambasting the tory government for fumbling and faltering, is the only dash of new blood in the re-made cabinet. A conservative Labor leader, who in . 1934 rushed the last of the left-wing­ ers out of the movement, he ■ has been variously appraised. One Brit­ ish friend tells me that “he is an­ other Ramsay MacDonald, ham­ strung by political ambition.” An­ other,-equally credible, tells me he is a vigorous and intelligent public leader who will greatly strengthen the cabinet. The son of a laborer, he was grocer’s boy, elevator operator, traveling salesman, telephone operator, and secretary of the London Labor party at $5 a week. When he was a small boy, a phrenologist, taking his last six-pence for a fee, told him he would one day rule Eng­ land. He had heard about Dick Whittington and laughingly tells the story when someone sug­ gests that he may be prime minister. It is almost certain that he will if England has an­ other Labor government. Significantly, he has contended that England must be more hospitable to conveyor-belt production, in both war and peace, if it expected to meet competition. The Germans long have been in line-production of planes, while the British have clung to hand-craft and quality—tradition­ ally. Judging from Mr. Morrison’s dossier of the last few years, he may help put more technological kick into their war operations. Iliat has been one of his big ideas. •---- TN HOLLYWOOD they toss out a male director and substitute a woman for the direction of “Dance, Girls, Dance." Miss Dorothy Arzner replaces Roy Del Ruth.

After his success among its winds and waves he was idle for two years. Then Producer Edward Small asked to borrow him for an­ other South Seas picture, “South of Pago-Pago.” Near the end of shoot­ ing on it, Small was planning to film “Kit Carson,” and had already signed Randolph Scott for the lead­ ing role when Hall appeared at the studio one day wearing a ten gallon -mi JON HALL hat and a semi-cowboy outfit. He had a late call for. work that day, and had spent the early morning hours riding with his wife, Frances Langford. Small met Hall near the actor’s dressing bungalow—and now it’s Hall instead of Randolph Scott whom you’ll see as Kit Carson. In its latest issue, “The Philip­pines; 1896-1946,” the March of Time pictures the new problems facing the Philippines as a result of today’s mounting war fever, and shows how Philippine independence, scheduled to take effect in 1946, is already threatened by Japan’s cur­ rent expansion program in the south Pacific. It’s been announced that Joan Blondell plans to retire from the screen indefinitely when she fin­ ishes “I Want a Divorce.” She has been suffering from severe colds and inertia for the past year, and says that she win travel throughout America with a road company, (a novel cure for both severe colds and inertia!) and later on wiU make an extended tour of South America for a change of climate.

Knight swears he was scared to death for fear the fruit would be handed right back—hur­ tling through the air straight at him.

But though he won’t give away the secret of the mixture, he does give away the tobacco—12 pounds of it a month. When he travels on per­ sonal appearance tours there’s al­ ways a large can of it on- his dress­ ing table—so if his orchestra is play­ ing in your town, and you know any­ one who smokes a pipe, you might drop in and get some. Deems Taylor, the music critic and composer who acts as master of ceremonies on “Musical Ameri­ cana,” has a maid who delights in taking part in contests of all kinds.

He knocked at the door and a head appeared at the window above. “My dear—” began the man. His long-suffering wife interrupt­ ed with: “ ‘My dear’ be hanged.

So you need both Pepmi to help break up fast that rich undigested food in your stomach, and LazativeSeima to pull the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be sure your lamtive also contains Pepsin. Take Dr. Caldwell’s Laxative, because its Syrup Pepsin helps you gain that won- derfulstomachcomfort, while theLaxative Seimamovesyourbowels-Testsprovethe powerof Pepsin to dissolve those lumps of undigested protein food which may lmger in yourstomach, to cause belching, gastric acidity and nausea.

So see how much better you feel by taking the laxative that also puts Pepan to work on that stomach discomfort, too.

Y Household News ^ m n o r - WHEN YOU'RE PLANNING A MENU ESPECIALLY FOB MEN (See Becipes Below) Jtist between us women, we’ll have to admit that, if left to his own devices, many a man would enjoy living on a straight diet of meat, potatoes and pie. It requires a lit­ tle judicious scheming on Mother’s part to supply Father with his fa­ vorite foods and provide for him a wholesome, well-balanced meal in the bargain. Whether she’s planning a menu to please the men folk in her family, or is chairman of the refreshment committee for the May meeting of the business men’s club, it’s a wise woman who remembers—and caters to—these masculine foilbles in food. Just how do a man’s food prefer­ ences differ from those of women?Well, for one th in g ; a m an w ants plainer, more substantial food. He likes a meal to be com­ posed of only a few dishes, but he wants those few to be tasty, full of flavor and cooked to a turn. And he likes to know just what he’s eating — he wants none of the "masked identity dishes” that defy him to find what they’re composed of. In a word, fancy cooking is wasted on the average man, but he appreciates good cooking to the limit. Remember that for most men, meat makes the meal; that hot breads are a masculine weakness that they themselves acknowledge; and that for dessert men have a special fondness for pie, or choco­ late cake. You’ll find more suggestions for planning masculine menus in my booklet, “Feeding Father.” There are tested recipes, too, for over 125 of father’s favorite foods. Hot Muffins. 2 cups general purpose flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons sugar I egg1 cup milk or water 2 tablespoons shortening, melted Mix and sift dry ingredients, add unbeaten egg, milk or water and melted shortening. Mix quickly. Pour into well-greased muffin tins, and bake in hot oven (450 degrees) 20 minutes. Deep South Ham Sandwich With Hot Mushroom Sauce. 6 pieces com bread, about 3 inches square 6 slices ham, boiled or baked Mushroom Sauce: I can condensed cream of mush­ room soup Vt cup milk Stir the % cup of milk into the condensed cream of mushroom soup. Heat, but do not boil. While the sauce is heat­ ing, split the pieces of corn bread and toast them. Then place the ham between the toasted slices of com bread and pour the hot mushroom sauce over the top. Note: This is an excellent way to utilize left-over corn bread. If hot com bread is used, we suggest the pieces be split and buttered, but not toasted.

EZEKIEL TEACHES PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY LESSON TEXT—Ezekiel 33:7-16.GOLDEN TEXT—So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.— Romans 14:12. Personal responsibility is a sub* ject well worthy of careful and re­peated consideration, We talk so much about social, national or racial responsibility that we are prone to forget that the social or­der, nations and races, are made up of individuals. The Bible, while recognizing the relationship and re­ sponsibilities of nations and social groups to God, rightly stresses in­ dividual responsibility. It is, man who is made in the likeness and image of God. He is the one who has fallen into sin, and he needs the regenerating grace of God in the Lord Jesus Christ It is man who stands responsible to God, both as an individual and as God’s repre­ sentative in carrying His message to others. I. Man’s Responsibility for the Lives of Others (vv. 7-11). Ezekiel had the official respon­ sibility of a watchman sent by God to his own people in their captivity in Babylon. His was a special call­ing, and yet is it not true that, ac­ cording to the teaching of the New Testament, every Christian is called to be a witness, a winner of souls, and a watchman? 1. The Watchman’s Commission (v. 7). His appointment is by God, and the. warning words he is to speak are given to him by God. Every true preacher and teacher of the gospel should be a God-called man, presenting the Word of God. Otherwise, his ministry will, have little meaning and no real power. The same is true of every Chris­ tian; a personal touch with God must precede his efforts to win others to God. 2. The Watchman’s Responsibility (w . 8, 9). Being a watchman is not a duty that one bears lightly, for it has grave responsibilities. Lives are dependent on the vigilance and faithfulness of the watchman. Even those who watch over worldly goods or who guard the safety and comfort of others are held by us to a high measure of responsibility and are liable for misfeasance or care­ lessness in office. What about those of us to whom the destiny of eternal souls has been committed? Read the solemn words of verses 8 and 9. 3. The Watchman’s Message (w . 10, 11). The Jews who were in cap­tivity because of their sin and failure were despondent. They saw no ray of hope; they were under the over­ whelming burden of their sin. The message of God’s watchman was one of hope to the repentant people. God is gracious toward the sinner and has no pleasure in punishing him. “Why will ye die?” places the responsibility squarely where it be­ longs—on the sinner himself. D. Man’s Responsibility for His Own Life (vv. 12-16). Whatever may be our responsi­ bility for the lives of others, certain it is that we must each one answer to God for our own lives. Ours is the glorious opportunity of living our life—and ours is the responsibility for it. 1. Consistent Living Required (v. 12). This verse evidently does not mean that a righteous man over­taken in a moment of defeat is lost. It rather refers to the one who has made an outward show of being righteous. Confident of himself, he has then fallen into careless living, and all at once his true character is revealed in outright wickedness. That man cannot then draw on his past record as though it were a bank account to be used to justify him in his hour of failure. Righteous-, ness is a matter of the heart. It is a spiritual rebirth, expressing itself in changed conduct and consistent living, not only yesterday and to­ day* but also tomorrow. 2. Real Repentance Accepted (w . 13-16). God was ready in Ezekiel’s day to accpet the genuinely repent­ ant man and woman. Infinitely more precious and warm is the wel­come that Christ now gives to sin­ ners who turn to Him, for He, our blessed Lord, has now worked out the way of salvation on Calvary’s tree. W Not ‘For' Am I to thank God for every­ thing? Am I to thank Him for be­ reavement, for pnin, for poverty, for toil? . . . Be still my soul; thou hast misread the message. It is not to give thanks for everything, but to give thanks in everything.—Dr. G. Matheson. They Shall Return to the Lord And the Lord shall smite Egypt; he shall smite and heal it; and they shall return even to the Lord, and he shall be entreated of them, and shall heal them.—Isaiah 19:22. Selfishness What makes selfishness such a deadly sin is that it is such a self. deceiving one. : " H O fP J SEW R u thW y etfi Spears FOR ATABLE ZS4' HIGH USE3BOARDS Ac= /ITH HOLES,// BORED IN M THE .CORNERS USE SZSMAU SPOOLS AND 24 LARGE ■ ONES-''4^ ' USE 4 BRASS CURTAIN ROOS RUN THROUGH SPOOLS >BOARDS s CLUE BETWEEN SPOOLS «« F ) EAR MRS.

Charlotte has spent the past two months trying to find a hundred thousand people .living within the corporate limits of that city. Up to a few days ago th?y claimed to have found about 98,000. Poor old Winston-Salem spent about the same length of time trying to catch np with Charlotte, but last reports showed only a little more than 79,- 000 people within the corporate limits.

C. .M tW NtUw*- w o K e y s 11 i n B Y LIDA L A R R IM O R E© MACRAB SMITH CO. WNU SE RVICB C THE STORT THUS FAR Charming, wealthy Gabrlella (Gay for short) Graham, engaged to Todd Janeway, Jehims to a cabin in the Maine woods accompanied by a friend, Kate Oliver, The idea ef a stay at the cabin occurred to her when she received a key to it following the death el her godfather. Uncle John Lawrence. The two girls notice that someone Is living hi the cabin. Kate suspects that Gay knows the identity of the mysterious occupant. The mystery man returns. He is John Houghton, a young doctor whom Gay had known In previous years. Immediately aggressive. Gay asks him by what right be is in the Cabin. His right, she finds, is greater than her own. He, too. possesses a key, but more .than that, is heir to it from his Uncle John, Gay’s godfather. Gay is high handed with him,' and he states courteously that he wilt leave. Looking at him in the doorway, her eld feelings return. She knows that he is more necessary to her than is Todd Janeway, the man she is to marry. Gay asks John to reconsider his decision to leave. The next morning brings a different feeling, and John decides to remain for his vacation—one more week. CHAPTER IV—Continued - C - Gay could not have made a strong­ er appeal to John’s imagination. She !eould not have presented her fiance !in a role which would so quickly have won John’s admiration and re­ spect. A love for sailing was his heritage from ancestors who had captained their own vessels around the world. The glory of the days of clippers and packets remained in the village in which he had spent his childhood and early youth, in memory and mementos. The house in which he’d been bom and in which his mother lived now had a square “look-out” on the roof; the walls of the library were covered with tea-paper from China; the bowl from which he’d eaten cereal as a child had been brought in the hold of a ship around the Horn. The sort of. sailing she spoke of was different, of course, but the swift vision of sails filling in the wind, the smell of brine-soaked rigging and rope, the thrill of a deck canting beneath feet instinctively braced, moved him to enthusiastic and, for the instant at least, quite unenvious response. “That’s a pretty swell prospect,” he said.“Yes, isn’t it?” she said brightly, too brightly, so that again he was aware of the passion beneath the light mocking words. “And that’s only the beginning. Todd’s father is giving us his place in Connecti­ cut, too, so that we’ll have an an­ chorage and Dad has bought an apartment house over by the East River because, of course, we’ll have to spend some time in town. We’re to have the top floor. The contest is on as to whether the decor is to 3)e smartly modern or quaintly Vic­torian. I’m backing Mother to win. She’s all for glass and chromium. Airnt Flora’s what-not and baH- iringes haven’t a chance.” "So you see there’s no sensible reason why I should have run away. Il was the whim of a spoiled IitUe brat who hasn’t sense enough to know her luck.” “Gay—I” he said, louder this time, his voice gritty with effort. “Will you stop, talking like an ab­ surd little fool?” “But I am.” She was moving, now, with a rocking motion back and forth on the float. “What a gift for description you have!” “You’re trying to make »se think you are,” he said brusquely, “but you aren’t succeeding.” He bent to­ ward her and his voice softened from a demand to an appeal. “What are you getting at? What are you trying to tell me? Please—’’ She drew a long sobbing breath and the house of cards tumbled into fragments. She looked up at him, her eyes dilated by tears, Uien down into the water.. “I don’t want to go back to New York,” she said, so low that he scarcely heard her and as though Ihe words were forced from her by some agency beyond her control. He did not reply. The sympathy that welled from his heart in an un­ grudging flood made coherent !thought impossible. He sat watch- ;iog her efforts to regain the control 'his appeal had shattered, fighting a desire to take her in his arms, feei­n g in his own senses the throb of the pulse at the base of her throat, the trembling that shook her body. Presently she grew quiet. When she !tamed to him again, her face was composed. “I suppose . I should apologize, now,” she said coolly. Her poise, her detachment, checked the rush­ ing flood of sympathy and tender concern. “It isn’t necessary,” he said stiff­ ly, feeling that she had tricked him, humiliated because he had been so naively moved by what might very well have been feminine histrionics. • “I won’t, then.” She bundled her bright hair into a rubber cap. “Apol­ogies are misleading.” She sprang to .her feet. “Come on. I’ll race you to the landing.” She dove from the side of the float, came to the surface, set off toward the shore, swimming with an easy over-arm stroke. He followed, after a moment. His strong brown body cut through the water, caught up with her, slqcken^d its speed to the slackening rhythm bf her stroke. “You aren’t trying to win!” She smiled at him,across .the strip, of water rippling between them. “What’s the use? I’m licked be­ fore I start.” Her face sobered. The smile, curv­ ing her lips, trembled. “John—” she said, hesitantly. “Yes, Gay—” But she ducked her head. When it emerged, water streamed over her face as though she were weep­ ing. The bow of the boat cut through water which shimmered with toe reflected glow of the sunset. Gay lifted and dipped the paddle slowly, watching circles, rimmed with gold and flame and amethyst widen out across toe still surface of toe lake. The wind which had blown all day had died down but the air was grow­ ing cold. She wished she had dressed more warmly but toe sun had been hot when she’d set off, alone, directly after lunch. He’d thought she was A-amatiz- ing that afternoon. Well, hadn’t she been—a little? The rebellion beneath toe words she’d spoken was sincere enough but her expression of it had been theatrical. Why couldn’t she have talked to him directly? He’d given her an opportunity. She’d felt very close to him, for a moment, nearer to mutual understanding than they had ever been. Then pride had gotten in toe way, had checked toe spontaneous response to toe tender­ ness in his voice that she had want­ ed to make. It was just as well. She was leaving tomorrow to keep a promise. What John thought of her was unimportant. She would, in all probability, never see him again after tonight— No use thinking of that. Gay, at some distance from toe shore, turned the canoe in toward the land­ ing. There was only one explana­tion she wanted to make. She’d been, when she talked to John this morning, very unfair to Todd. Re­ morse for toe impression she’d prob­ ably given John of him had nibbled uneasily at her thoughts during the afternoon. She was fond of Todd. She loved him as her best and dear­ est friend. Strange— But that was true. He was her best and her dear­est friend. But how could she explain Todd to John? The bow of toe canoe bumped gently into the landing. Gaydropped toe paddle and held on to the plank­ ing with one hand while she reached for the rope. Wouldn’t anything that she might say be too much or too little? They hadn’t merely drifted into an engagement. It wasn’t only propinquity or toe suitability of toe match which had culminated in toe promise she was leaving tomorrow to keep. They’d been dearest friends since she could remember, separat­ ed for long intervals when he or she had been traveling or in school or involved in a temporary infatua­tion, but always coming together again, taking up their friendship where they had dropped it, never admitting but mutually conscious of toe fact that they liked each other best. John’s voice called her name. She turned. He was walking down toe path toward her, a dim figure in the deep twilight of the thickly crowding trees. “I was just setting out to look for you,” he said. “Were you?” Her voice steadied. “Supper over?” “Some time ago.” He stepped back to allow her to precede him up the narrow path to the cabin. “Kate took her car to toe garage .in the village." “What for?" “To have everything checked be­ fore you start in toe morning. I of­ fered to take it for her but she seemed to prefer to go herself. Where have you been all after­ noon?” “Just drifting.” “Didn’t it occur to you that I— that we might be concerned about you?” He held the screen door open for her. “Not especially.” She glanced up at him as she stepped inside. He was frowning and the set of his mouth was stem. “If you were, I'm sorry,” she added. A fire blazed and crackled in toe fire-place. She went to the hearth and Bitld her hands to the warmth. “Are you cold?” He struck a match to light a lamp.“A little. The .air is chilly after the sun goes down.” “And you’ve had nothing to eat, “I’m not hungry.” The constraint in the atmosphere lay like a weight upon her spirits. “Kate left something in the oven for you.” His eyes avoided t/r glance. He adjusted the wick and replaced the shade on the lamp. “I don’t want anything, thank you.” She stood with her back to the fire, now, printing his features upon her memory as she saw them in the light striking up from toe lamp. Her throat ached. Her heart felt too big for her breast. “You’ll be making an early start in the morning?”“Probably.” , “Then I’d better fill toe wood- basket tonight.” He came to the hearth and bent to lift the basket. The firelight shone on his thick dark hair, on toe lean angle of his jaw. By extending her hand she could have touched him. Why not? There was only tonight— The telephone on the wall whirred and jangled. “What the devil—?” he exclaimed in an undertone and walked across the room to the telephone box against the wall. She watched him place the re­ ceiver to his ear, heard his brusque “Hello! Hello! WiU you get off the He was frowning'and the set of his mouth was stern. wire, please? HELLO! The call is for the Lawrence cabin, Mrs. Sprague. HELLO! Yes—” His voice quieted to a less aggressive tone. 1Hello, Ralph. Yes. Houghton speak­ ing—” The call had nothing to do with her. Gay’s apprehension subsided. She waited for the end of the con­ versation, not gathering much infor­ mation from what she heard. John said, “Yes” at intervals, asked a direction, said, “Yes. Right away. Yes. Thanks, Ralph. Good-by.” “This telephone!” He smiled In comic exasperation as he placed the receiver on toe hook. “Everybody from here to Machias listens in. It’s a favorite amusement in Washing­ ton County.” “That's joliy, isn’t it?” His smile, her response, relieved the con­ straint. “I thought it might be long distance,” she said. ‘Long distance? Good Lord! A call from here to New York would probably take a week." He hesitat­ ed, then asked, “Will you be afraid to stay here alone until Kate re­turns?” v Her quick glance questioned him. “That was Ralph Sprague up at the store. They need a doctor at toe Whittaker place. Somebody went to the store to telephone. They couldn’t locate either Dr. Nelson or Dr. Branch, and Ralph thought of me. I don’t like to leave you here alone—” She thought that he was less con­cerned with her than with getting away. It didn’t matter that this was her last night here. He was grateful for an excuse, perhaps. She lifted her chin.“Pm not afraid to stay alone.” “You might ride out. there with me,” he suggested diffidently and without, Gay thought, any special enthusiasm. “No, I’ll stay here. Kate will be back before long.” “AU right.” He walked to toe door opening into toe kitchen, paused there to ask, “You’re sure you don’t mind, that you won’t be afraid?” ‘Certainly not,” she said cooUy, wanting to go with him more, she thought, than she had ever wanted anything in all her life before, feel­ ing each foot-step that took Um away from her fall like a blow on her heart. His expression became more reso­ lute. “You’re probably right,” he said crisply. “It might not be too comfortable. I may be detained." He left the room without looking at her again. Standing on toe hearth, she heard him moving about in the room he used for a laboratory. Mo­ ments passed slowly, dropping like water which might not be gathered up again, spiUing, wasted, gone for­ ever. Presently footsteps thudded across the kitchen floor. The back door closed. The soqnd of the door closing vi­ brated through her senses. Gay took a step forward, stopped, then went running out through the kitchen, jerked open the door, sped down toe steps and across toe clearing. "John!” she called breathlessly. “Wait for me! I’m coming!” John opened the door of the farm­ house and looked out across a stretch of weed-grown lawn. His car was there under toe wiHow where he had left it at the edge of the lane.“Good-night, Ben,” he said to the lanky young man in overalls who had accompanied him to the door. “Don’t worry. Everything’s aU right.” “Thanks, Doc. Jenny and I are mighty grateful.” “That’s aU right. I’U run in some time tomorrow—today.” A thin high wail came out through the open door. The unshaded lamp trembled in the shaking young hands which held it. John laughed. “Only a healthy one could make that much noise. He’s going to be an opera singer.” “Not if he takes after his Dad.” The boyish face traced with lines of weariness and anxiety shone, then darkened. “You sure Jenny’s—all right?” “Fine. She’ll probably sleep un­ til noon. Your mother will know what to do. You get some sleep.” “AU right, Doc. We sure thank you. Good-night.” The door closed. John walked across toe stretch of lawn toward the car. The fuU moon had dropped below the dipping hiUs but the farm­ yard was bright with radiance it had left. John drew in deep breaths of the cool damp air. He came up to toe car walking quietly, shorten­ ing his long eager strides. But she was not asleep. “HeUo, Doc,” she said, and sat erect In the seat of the car. “I thought I told you to go back to the cabin,” he said, but his at­ tempt to sound stern was not very convincing. “You did,” Gay said. “You’ve been teUing me that at intervals aU night.” “Are you frozen? Let me look at you.” He leaned past her into the car and turned on toe dash-board lights. She wore his old coUege sweater, too large for her, the sleeves rolled back to free her hands and she had bundled herself into a cocoon of car robes and blankets. (TO BE CONTINUED) X -R ays o f 'V oice Box* A ids S tudy o f Lsirynx If you stutter, don’t blame it aU on your tongue or your facial mus­ cles. More probably it’s the fault of your larynx. That is toe conclusion of Dr. Har­ old Westlake, instructor in speech at toe Pennsylvania' State- college, based on an analysis of 1,500 origi­ nal X-ray pictures of the mouth and “voice-box” of several hundred per­ sons of all ages and both sexes, some of them stutterers. “In singing, in speech instruction for the deaf'and in voice correction, we have been over-emphasizing the tongue simply because we didn’t know how important toe larynx' might be,” he said. “The X-ray pic­ tures show that this is important— that the obscure vocal folds and the back cavities of the throat Inte- ence our speech very decidedly.” In producing vowels, for instance, it was found that toe hidden motions and placements of the larynx play a bigger sole than the position of toe tongue. With consonants, on toe other hand, the major function is supplied by the tongue. Pictures of stutterers revealed that in most cases spasms occur in toe larynx before they are discerni­ ble at all in toe tongue or facial muscles. The traditional treatments have dealt almost exclusively with the visible organs.- • Dr. Westlake believes that as tha larynx becomes betteir known, it will assume great importance in speech instruction. Electrical instruments are already available^, he said, to measure the amount of energy be­ing expended in the larynx, and these will facilitate correctional treatments.

After that the palm settles down steadUy to the job of producing fruit by the hundredweight, for a hundred years or so. There is a use for every p a rt' of this remarkable tree. The branches make cattle food after they have been softened, toe leaves can be eaten as a vegetable, and drinks can be made from the fruit and sap. Then toe fiber of the leaves can be made into ropes,. or mats, or baskets. Idleness a Tomb Idleness is the sepulcher of the Uving man.

He continues: "The fielding is the liveliest, thing imaginable. Those at the bases and outfield are armed with a single-glove as large as a frying pan. The balls are skied to a tremendous height, but I never saw a catch missed.” In a Nutshell The theater was in an uproar. "They’re calling for the author,” said the man responsible^ for toe play. The manager grabbed the play­ wright and 'impelled him along toe passage. A s. he shoved him toward the curtain he said curtly: "Well, just go in front and tell them you’re sorry.” Dt Cheerful News ItA iy MOBILIZES /HOLLANP m o b il iz e s/& L6IU M W U Z E ? ! f y SiWePfN M o e iu z E ? /WELL I ftW T SiifftTSE (TUKm eeK)EEi T H ty1EE A ll IN IT nonce.

Tutteiow, of R. 5. and also the little daugh­ ter of Will Murphy, of Center. Some Facts and Figures. Thomas E, Dewey. Republican candidate for President, in a recent speech at Louisville, Kv., among other things, said: For seven years uow our Govern­ ment in Washington has been con trolled by prophets of despair. For seven years the Administration bar fumbled with unemployment and economic want. And after seven years of fumb ling, what are tberesultr?—ten and a half million men still unemplby. cd. And what is the New Deal answer to the problem of unemploy­ ment? Its answer is surrender. I say to you: it can be solved. This country demands an administration that believes it can oe solved. We cannot always live huddled together, afraid to move, while those who control our destiny tell us therd is no other course, Amer ica is not a nation of children, to be tied to the apron strings of gov­ ernment. America is not 130,000,- 000 people who have quit because they have reached a frontier. Progress is not bounded by geo­ graphy. The progress of a great people does not stop when its boun­ daries are reached. , To a great na­ tion there is no last frontier. With­ in our own land there are endless worlds to conquer. The only lim­ its of progress are limits of energy and spirit. Next November there is an elec­ tion. Next November the New Deal expects the American people to march to the polls and vote Yes." But the American people remember what happened aftei 1936. There will be no.' ‘mandate* ’ tor the New Dealers this November. Let us consider the New Deal re­ cord. Letups take its seven years and campare them with the preced ing seven years—Republican years. Compare, the averages of the sev­ en Republican years with the aver­ ages of the seven Republican years with the averages of the seven New Deal years. That gives the New Deal a great advantage, since the Republican period included three years.of world depression. But let them have that advantage. They need it. Here are the results of the com­ parison. First among the item is national income. National Income: Down. From seventy billion dollars average in the Republican years to sixty-two billion in the New Deal years. The next item is iarm income. Farm Income: (Including all government payments) Down. From nine billion dollars in the Re­ publican years to seven and a half billion dollars in the New Deal years. And then some more: Agricultural Exports: Down, From a billion a half dollars to less than three-quarters of a billion dol­ lars a year. Farm Prices: Down. Nearly twenty per cent. Industrial Wages and Salaries: Down. From twenty-one billion dollars to sixteen and a half billitn. Dividend Payments: Down From four and a half billion dol- Iars to tbiee billion. New Capital Invested: Down. From four billion dollars to less than one billion. New Building: Down. More than fifty per cent. There is not much of a campaign document for the New Deal in those figures: But the New Deal suggests that the-amount of income is not im- portainf. They say it is distribu­ tion oi: income that counts. Bnt when - the total income of eveiy group is less; the hard fact is that theN ew Deal has only succeeded in redistributing poverty. The only important redistiibution of income under the New Deal has been out of the pockets of the American peo­ ple and into the hands of the Wash­ ington bureaucrats. That redistribution has been im­ mense. And that brings us to another set of items in our comparison—the “up” items. Oh yes, there have been increases under the New Deal. Not everything has gone down. Some averages, and very important ones, have gone up between the seven Republican years and the seven New Deal years. Here are some items from that list. Employees on the Federal Pay­ roll: Up. From an average of 550.000 in the Republican years to 770.000 in Ihe New Deal years. And it’s nearly a million now. Taxes: Up. From three and a third billion dollars per year for the New Deal Average. And they’re five and a half billion now. Expenditures 0 f Government: Up. From three and a half billion dollars a year to over eight billion dollars under the New Deal. And they're over nine billion dollars now. Annual Government Deficit: Up. From one-fifth of a billion dollars per year average to three and a half billion dollars under the New Deal. And this year it will be four billkn dollars. And finally. Industrial Disputes: Up. From eight hundred to two thousand five hundred a rear. Thete is the picture—the seven lean years. National income down, farm prices down, farm exports down, labor- income down, divid­ ends down, new building down, the flow of piivate investment— the flow of private investment—the stream that turns' the wheels of business— 1 eince I to a trickle. And on the other hand, Utiem ployment up—up to over ten mil­ lion, wbile tbe bureaucratic estab lishment has doubled. - Annual de- ficit astronomical. And the nation al Debt more '.than doubled sir.ee »933- There are the ups and toe downs. Things that should be down are up. Things-that should be up are down. The measures ofIncompe'ence up, the measure yf prosperity down. There in two short lists is1 the indictment for economic failure. There is the record on which the New Deal will fall. Last monL_tb£'President speak­ ing to the Young Democratic Clnbs of the country, said he relied on the common sense of the American peo­ ple to return the New Deal to power in November. With the New Deal’s record before them, I place a different estimate on the common sense of the American people. Men Wanted. During the next next few months the U: S.

John Wesley Clay, a long time friend of The Record editor for 47 years, writes a short daily article for the Winston-Salem Journal, un­ der the heading, “ My Notions.” His articles are pithy and pointed, and are read by thousands daily. We were forcibly impressed by one of bis ‘‘Notions,” which appeared in a recent issue of the Journal We meet people on the streets day after day who owe us from one to five dollars, who could buy us ont and not miss the money, hut they won’t pay us. Read what Clay has to sav about such folks: " It’s enough to make one’s blood boil. We walked past the square the other day and standing there talking with a bunch of men was a guy who has owed us forty dollars for several years. He had on a fin. er suit than we ever owned, and hat, shoes, tie and shirt to . match.. For several years he has been on the pay roll of Uncle Satn (that means all of us), and we have to pay for those fine clothes he wears. We went down to the postoffice and met a man who owes us sixty dol­ lars, and he was dressed finer than the first one. He also is. 011 Uncle Sam’s pay roll. Each of these men promised the judge to pay 'us five dollars per month until their ac­ counts were settled, but never a cent did they pay. Then we came back to the shop and in walks a man with a look of great importance on his face and he says: "I am Mr. So-and.So. I represent the United States govern ment.

It makes one’s blood boil. But then it. is well for your blood to boil occasionally. It steralizes your system.’.’ Yes,- Clay is right. We have a number of high salaried State em­ ployees who have been owiDg us for years, and are still owing us. Some of them live less than a hun­ dred miles from Mocksville. We have wasted mnch postage in try­ ing to collect these accounts. One of these days we are going to get mad and publish the names ot all these termites. We wiU have our blunderbuss laying on our desk be­ fore the names are made public. America Must Prepare. With ruthless military aggress ion unleashed in the world, Amer­ ica must lose no time in strength­ ening her defenses. The New Deal has wasted billions of dollars of our money but it has failed to ’ make adequate provision tor the needs of our armed forces. More than' that tts destructive policies have serious­ ly threatened our national economy ic strength—the strength which is our greatest safe-guard in a war­ ring world. Two things we must do to se­ cure our future: We mnst restore our whole economy to health and vigor after the ravages of the seven lean years; and we must build up the power and efficiency of our army, navy and air forces to levels which will make this country im­ pregnable to attack,—Thomas E.

The Drunken Driver. The editor of the Jonesboro Her­ ald and Tr.une carried the follow, ing editorial on front page of his paper last week: Twenty-nine cases of drunken driving are listed on the dockets for trial at this term of circuit conrt. We do not kuow who they are and we know nothing of the cir­ cumstances under which the ac­ cused were arrested; but we do know that the rapidly increasing number ot drunken driving cases is becoming exceeding alarming, and we feel that something -drastic should be done by those in authori­ ty to check the menace. In our bumble opinion a drunk­ en driver is a potential murderer. In mo-t cases, he manages to gel by without killing anyoue, but there is always the greater possibility that he might do so than if be were sober. Intoxication is deceptive. Most persons under the influence of a bottle or two of beer or a few drinks of liquor are deceived into believing that they can see better, think more quickly and drive mote carefully than at any other time. In fact, they deny that it has bad any effect on their ability to drive safely. Such drivers are a menance not only to themselves but to all who use the high ways. The probability Ot their killing themselves or others who cannot escape them in their wild rampage is so great that the courts should not be so lenient in dealing with them A small fine and a ten day jail sence to be served over a week-ends is not sufficient punishment for those who are not guilty, and will never prevent otheis from commit­ ting the same dangerous offense. For the safety of innocent, sober, lawabiding people who have a right oh the highways, it is hoped that something more in' keeping with the crime will be done about it. Chooses Pastor.

Henry Ford, the famous automo­ bile builder wbo is known the world over for his strong opposi­ tion to war in any form, announces that “if it became necessary the Ford Motor Company could—with the counsel of men like Lindbergh and Rickenbacker, under our envn supervision and without meddling by government agencies—swingnn. to the production of a thousand air­ planes of StandaH design a dayjl It would take about six moiiths under those conditions, he said' in an interview, to' reach that IeveIrof production. “Of course,” he emphasized, “thry would have to be of stand­ ard design ; equally important would be freedom of action on our own part, so that we would not have the handicaps of red tape that slew­ ed down production during : the World Wa.. ” Ford said lie' was convinced the present conflict in Europe would not last very long “ because the United States won’t get into it.” “ Don’t misunderstand me,” he said. “ A lot of pressure is being brought to push us into it and ■ there is real danger in enormous defensive’ argument, but I -am confident we can keep out of it.’ ” It was suggested to Ford that “a thimsatm planes a. day is an enor­ mous volume'of p-oi’iiclioii.” * "So was 10,000 unitor cars a day, but we did ■>; sit was the produc­ tion of one Eagl': boat a day dur­ ing the World War;- hut we did it.

That is easy to answer: The work­ ing man. The San Francisco Employers Council recently published a Mirvey of what happened in a number-bf iecrot strikes. -In one case, 185 employes lost 81 days wages—and rhe strike was finally called off. - In another, 153 employes lost 67 darvs wages—and the; strike was called In another, 153 employes lost 767 days wages—and the strike was called off. In another 250 employes lost 107 dars wages—and the strike was called off. So it goes, down: a long list. And In the case ’of really big strikes, such as that against Chrysler, '.the wage loss to workers runs far into the milliois. Labor organizations is desirable. A well organized and fairiy operat­ ed union is a great asset to the Ia- Doling man. B u t’the unjustified strike is usually the result of un. principled, seif-seeking labor lead­ ership. Such labor leaders don’t have to worry —their salaries go on as usual. It’s the working man who pays and pays, and pays.—E x- Your Fellow Men.

The idea Cf a stay at the cabin occurred to her when she received a key to it following the death ad her godfather, Uncle John Lawrence. The two girls notice that someone is living In the cabin. Kate suspects that Gay knows the identity of the mysterious occupant. The mystery man returns. He is John Houghton, a young doctor whom Gay had known in previous years. Immediately aggressive, Gay asks him by what right he is in the cabin. His right, she finds, is greater than h.er own. He,.too. possesses a key, but more than that, is heir to it from his Uncle John. Gay’s godfather. Gay is high handed with him, and he states courteously tliat he will leave. Looking at him in the doorway, her eld feelings return. She knows that be is more necessary to her than is Todd Janeway, the man she is to marry. Gay asks John to reconsider his decision to leave. The next morning brings a different feeling, and John decides to remain for his vacation—one rr.ore week. The night before Gay and Kate are to return home to New York John gets an urgent request to caU at a nearby farm. Gay accompanies him while he cares ,dor the patient. CHAPTER IV—Continued “You should have gone back,” John said as he slipped in behind the !wheel. “They would have taken me [or I could have stayed here all night. lDo you realize that it’s nearly three io’clock?” He released the brake and the car moved out into the road. "What do you suppose Kate is think­ ing?”“The worst, probably.” Gay moved ,closer to him in the narrow seat. “What is it, a boy or a girl?” “A boy.” She was unconscious of ’having moved toward him, he ,'thought. Wonderful to have her here ' jvery close to him, wearing his sweater, waiting for him to ride back to the cabin. Not real, of course, a [piece of a dream, a part of the strange intimacy of this night they had spent together, j “I heard it.” Her voice’ was hushed. “It sounded like a furious kitten. I’d like to have seen it. ll’ve never seen one so—small.”I “They improve with age. He had a close shave. It’s the first one and there were complications. I’d have !given my soul for hospital equip­ment. That—” He broke off abrupt­ ly, then added with brusqueness in­ duced by embarrassment and the fear that his enthusiasm might bore her. “I shouldn’t have let you in for ithis. I didn’t know it was a baby. ,Why didn’t you take the car back [to the cabin hours ago?” ; “I wouldn’t have missed it,” she said, still in that hushed and won­ dering voice. “Nothing as real as ,this ever happened to me. I should think that doing what you did tonight ■would make you feel like—God.” . “Good Lord!” he said, trying to conceal the pride and pleasure her ;comment gave him. “I didn’t do [anything she couldn’t have done for herself. Made it a little easier, pos­ sibly. There’s too much sentimen­ talizing over doctors,” he concluded severely. “Oh, John, don’t!” she cried with soft vehemence. “Don’t be ashamed !of—enthusiasm.” “I’m not actually,” he admitted, moved by the sincerity of her voice. .“Only you’re always so controlled and—detached. You’ve made me feel that enthusiasm is—naive.” “I know! I hate it!” she cried. “We’re all that way, my friends, I mean. We think it’s smart to be bored and disillusioned. We avoid any display of emotion as we would avoid a plague. Even Todd and I—” She paused. The roadster dipped down into a hollow where fog moved before the head-lights in wraith-like shapes. John felt his hands trembling on the wheel. “Don’t talk about it. You needn’t, I mean. There’s nothing you’re obliged to explain.” “But I want to,” she said earnest­ ly. “I could have gone away Iet- . ting you think what you pleased of me but someone else is involved. This—yesterday morning when I pulled my act on the float I must have given you a very unfair im­ pression of Todd. I’m not being forced into this marriage.”John gave a short laugh. “I could scarcely have that impression,” he said. “None of the things you probably think are true,” she went on. “We didn’t merely drift into an engage­ ment. It wasn’t propinquity or the fact that both families hoped and expected that we would marry. I suppose that would have put us off each other, if anything. We’re nei­ ther of us lambs which could be led to a sacrifice without a good deal of bleating.” Presently she continued. “I like Todd better than anyone I’ve ever Known,” she said, as though she were explaining the situation to her­ self as well as to him. “We enjoy being together. We think the same things are amusing or sad or ex­ citing.” “I should think that would be an excellent foundation for marriage,” John said as she paused. “But it isn’t enough'. It’s all too— What were the words you used?— controlled and detached. We hold things too lightly." Mounting pas­ sion flamed in her voice. “Todd shouldn’t have let me come here,” she said. “Let you?” “Oh, I know.” She gave a low tueful laugh. “He couldn’t have pre­ vented my coming. But if I’d cared enough for him I wouldn’t have needed to come. If he’d cared enough for me he would have tried to keep me there with him. If—” she broke off, and added: “I meant to correct the unfair impression of Todd I’d given you. I’m not doing a very good job.” He ignored that. “Why did you come, Gay?” he asked. “I’ve wanted to tell you.” Her voice was quiet, now, very thought­ ful, wholly sincere. “I’ve been afraid to try. It doesn’t seem reasonable, even to me. I had no idea that you would be here.” “I know that.” John was uncon­scious of the fact that he had slack­ ened the speed of the car. With his eyes still fixed on the road ahead, he waited for her to continue. “I’m not afraid now,” she went on after an interval of silence. “To­ night, while I was waiting for you, I thought of Uncle John.” “Yes?” he said, bending toward her. “Do you suppose that when you are—dying,” she asked simply, like a child puzzling over a mystery be­ yond its comprehension, “that some especial wisdom is given to you?” Her phrasing of a thought he’d had, startled him with its similarity. He remained silent, hi3 weariness gone, every nerve in his body sud­ denly tense and alert. “I thought of that tonight,” she went on without waiting for a reply to her question, “while you were bringing that baby into the world. When realities touch ypu, pride seems unimportant. I’m not afraid to tell you now. I wanted to come back to the cabin because I’d felt intensely here. I’d been both happy and unhappy and not ashamed of either, no hidden emotion beneath mockery for fear I’d be thought sen­ timental and naive.” “But you were so young then, Gay.” John drew in at the side of the road and stopped the motor. “And have you—succeeded?” ‘I was disappointed the night Kate mid I arrived. I realized how fool­ ish I’d been. The cabin was as I remembered it, but I had no feeling about it until—” Her voice which had been com­ posed trembled to a faltering stop. She glanced up at him and he saw, in the light from the dashboard, the tears on her lashes, the uncertain half-smile on her lips, the melted stars in her eyes. His arms went around her, drew her close. “Gay,” he said. "Darling! I love you. It’s a relief to say it. I’m not afraid either. Oh, Gay.” She turned so that her cheek touched his. Her arm want up around his neck. “John!” she cried softly. "Oh, I was afraid it wouldn’t happen. I was afraid I’d go away without hav­ ing really been with you. Or that you would. We’re both so stubborn and proud and ridiculous.” She laughed, half sobbing. “John!” “I couldn't have gone while you were here,” he whispered against her cheek. Her arm tightened. Her hand moved in gentleness from his tem­ ple down along the thin line of his jaw. “I couldn’t have either. It was always you. It was because you had been there that I had to come back. I loved you awfully that sum­ mer and have always since. I thought just being here— But it wouldn’t have been any good. The night Kate and I came—the cabin was just as I had remembered it. But I had no feeling about it until I found your sweater, this. sweater, and knew it was you who was there.” “That old sweater. It was new the summer you were here. You remembered!” “I remembered everything, how you had your hair cut short so it wouldn’t wave, your hands—I could have drawn them from memory— your crooked smile that disapproves of me, the way you walk, all the things that make you—you.” “Oh, Gay! You make me—I can’t say—” His love for her, so long held in check, broke through the re­ straints he had set. Logic and com­ mon sense were lost in a rushing flood of tenderness, passion, relief. They had this time together, now, tonight. The past was blotted out and the future obscure. They were together on the small secure island of the present. “I’ve wanted you so,” he said in shaken phrases. "I’ve ached to hold you like this. CHAPTER V Kate roused, opened her eyes, blinked at the light coming in through the window beside her bed. She had forgotten to draw the shade when she had retired, she thought, She had forgotten to undress, too, apparently, since she seemed to be fully clothed. That was a little care­less, to say the least. She stretched under the blankets, blinked again and remembered. Her eyes, wide awake now, flew to Gay’s bed at the opposite end of the room. The counterpane was drawn smoothly over the pillows and Gay’s white wool robe lay flung across it as it had lain since yester­ day afternoon. Kate glanced at her watch. Nearly half-past seven. She threw back the blankets, sprang from the bed, stood listening. She glanced in the mirror above the low chest of drawers. Her face, colorless from anxiety and fatigue, glared back at her in the morning light. What a fright she looked! Not that it mattered. She was glad she’d done what she had. She’d “You’ve made me feel that en­ thusiasm is—naive.” wondered, last night, how she would feel about that this morning. Gay would be furious. Let her. There were limits to patience and toler­ ance and being a good sport. Last night, at least, she hadn’t let her sympathies run away with her com­ mon sense. How treacherous sympathies were! Kate, brushing her long sandy hair, felt hers stir beneath anxiety and exasperation as she thought of Gay and John. They were so obviously in love with each other, romanti­ cally in love which was more dan­gerous than a mere physical attrac­ tion. Not that he wasn’t physically attractive. He had charm and good breeding. His characteristic gravi­ ty, lit by flashes of humor, was ap­ pealing. He was sensitive, but Gay couldn’t dominate him, which, for her, must be unique and intriguing. In that quality, call it strength of character or stubbornness as you please, lay, she supposed, his strong attraction. What was that? Kate dropped her brush on the top of the chest. They were here. They were laughing to­ gether, somewhere, close at hand. Her first reaction was a light-head­ ed sense of relief. She opened the bedroom door into the main por­tion of the cabin. The sound of laughter reached her more clearly. She smelled bacon frying and toast and coffee. Relief sharpened into indignation. They were laughing, were they, having breakfast, while she worried. Kate’s back stiffened. As she walked through the living-room, she glanced at the telephone against the wall. She was glad she had done it, she told herself, steeling heir sympa­ thies, resentfully forcing from her mind an unjustified feeling of guilt. But she wasn’t so sure she was glad when she came to the doorway of the kitchen. Sympathy, for a sentimental moment, took prece­ dence over indignation and anxiety. They had built a roaring fire in the wood range and were cooking break­ fast together. Gay, wearing his sweater, too large for her, the sleeves rolled back to free her hands, was toasting bread. John, standing beside her, turned bacon in the skillet. Steam rose from the coffee-pot, curled in a wreath above their beads.. Sunlight streaming in j through the two east windows lay over them, a promise, a seal of ap­ proval, a benediction. They were not aware of Kate standing in the doorway. Their faces bent over their separate tasks were absorbed and smiling. As she watched, their glances lifted and met. They broke into soft laughter though no word was exchanged. Leaning toward her, his lips brushed across her hair. The light caress, significant of a new relationship, banished sympa­ thy and sentiment. Kate stiffened. “Well!” she said crisply. “For two people who’ve been out all night—” “We didn’t expect to be so long,” Gay interrupted. “John had a baby. It took all night.” _ “What!” Kate’s hands grasped the sides of the doorway. “A Mrs. Whittaker had a baby," John said. “I merely assisted.” Kate drew a steadying breath. “And what did you do?" she asked Gay. “I waited for John outside in the car.” _ “I’m surprised you didn’t—as­ sist.” “I wanted to. John wouldn’t let me.” ‘ Kate felt her lips twitching in spite of the very real dismay that weight­ ed her spirits. “I’m glad he had that much sense,” she said. "You couldn’t have telephoned, I sup­pose.” “There wasn’t a ’phone." “I am sorry, Kate.” John roused from the trance-like state so alarm-! ing to Kate. “You must have been frantic. I tried to send Gay back. But you know how she is." i “Just a spoiled brat.” Gay glanced up at him, smiling. “The toast is burning,” Kate said. “Heavens, yes!” Gay snatched the rack up from the stove. ‘Can’t you keep your mind on your work?” John took the rack! from her. Their hands touched, re-1 luctantly parted. Gay gave a laugh­ ing cry. ‘Can’t you? The bacon is burned to a crisp.” | “Good Lord!” The rueful smile' widened into his engaging grin.1 “Will you cook this breakfast. Kate?” I ‘I’ll have to, I suppose,” she said! grumpily, “if I’m to have anything! fit to eat.” She took the skillet from John’s unresisting hand and marched to the sink. “After you’ve had breakfast you’d better get some' sleep. We can’t start for New York' today.” I A sudden hush fell upon the room,1 Kate could not see their faces. She was scraping burned bits of bacon from the skillet into the sink. ‘The Northfield garage couldn’t cope with the generator," she went on. “I left the car there and that boy with the teeth brought me back1 here last night. They kindly offered to take the car in to Machias to-, day. That means, I suppose, that it' won’t be ready before night. I’ll be glad to get back to civilization again where it doesn’t take forever to get something done.” She turned. “Where’s the rest of the bacon or have you—”fro BE CONTINUED) Liquid Helium Is Puzzle To Sdentific ,Observers Liquid helium II, one of the most peculiar substances ever observed by scientists, acts as if it defies the laws of gravitation that apply to all other substances. Entirely under, its own powers it can rise against the pull of gravity and flow'into a vessel at a greater height than its own solution. This phenomenon was described by Prof. H. Grayson Smith of the University of Toronto, at the Boston meeting of the American Chem­ ical society. It was first ob­ served at Oxford university. If the closed end of a test tube is dipped into the liquid helium II it will flow up the sides of the tube, over flu) opening at the top and fill the tube. It will creep over any solid surface with which it comes in contact. It leaks readily through solid materi­ als through which gas can be forced in small quantities only’at very high pressures. This fluid has from 100 to 1,000 times the heat conductivity of sil­ ver. Liquid helium II exists only at very low temperatures, near ab­ solute zero. Heliiun at ordinary temperatures is a gas, well known as the non-inflammable balloon SUer.' It can be changed to a liquid by cooling. Further cooling should change.it to a solid as is the case with other gases, but instead tt changes to another liquid with prop­ erties that are baffling to the scien­ tist*.

Premier Mussilin', in a speech Monday, declared that Italy had joined hands with Germany against France and Great Biitain. A migh­ ty batt’e is raging in Europe, with Russia and Turkey and other coun­ tries liable to enter the conflict at any moment. No ore can tell what the outcome will be. Some of Broughton’s enemies charged during the first primary that the State htgh'-vay bosses anrt workers, together with the chain gang folks, were all working for Brotighion. Well, we were nnder the impression that such was the case in t£ls neck of the woods. . One of our readers wanted to know why we didn’t print the war news. A country weeklv trying to keeo up with the war news these •days reminds one of a M del T. Ford, trying to keep up with a Lin­ coln or Packard. Even the daily newspapers are not able to keep up with the great battles that are ragine in Europe. The only way to keep posted on the war situa­ tion is to Ml v yrmrce1f a radio, a soft cushioned chair, quit your j”b if you have one and have your meals brought to vow. Thousands of people assembled in Winston Salem Satifdav evening to hear Hon. Thomas E. Dewey, Republican candidate for president, who spoke in the new gymnasium at RevncMs Park. It is needless to say that Dewey gave the large asseJJ Dlage something to think a- bout. His speech was carried over NBC Red network, and no doubt several million people heard this famous New York district attorney, who, it seems, has a fine chance of being nominated for president the Republican convention in Phi­ ladelphia on Iune 24th. The at tention of our readers is called to a speech which Mr. Dewey made re. cently at Louisville, which appears ;on the first page of The Record to­ day. Democratic voters in Davie coun­ ty will have to march to the polls a- gain on Saturday, June 22nd, and cast their ballots for one ot two men.

HAGGAI URGES THE BUILDING OF GOD’S HOUSE LESSON TEXT-Haggal 1:2-12.GOLDEN TEXT—And let us consider one /mother to provoke unto love and to good works: not forsaking the assembling of our. selves together, as the manner of some is. —Hebrews 10:24. 25. Religious work—or, more correct­ ly stated, Christian work—is a dif­ ficult and discouraging task, except for the grace and blessing of God. Not only does the Christian worker have to struggle against that arch­ enemy of God and of the souls of men, Satan himself, but he must overcome the deadly indifference and carelessness of men both out­ side and inside the Church. Then, as if that were not enough, he finds another enemy, the discouragement of hfe own heart. Haggai ministered to the Jews who had returned from captivity and who had begun to rebuild the temple. Opposition had developed before they had made more than a beginning, and they at once gave up and turned their interest to their own affairs and the building of their own homes. God was displeased by this sinfulness on their part, and brought judgment upon them through a prolonged drouth. Haggai was called to awaken their con­ science and to encourage them to action. I. Consider Tour Ways (w . 2-6. 9-11).It was not necessary for the prophet to work up any eloquent plea to stir the conscience of the people. He had only to point to their own ways. They were thus faced with three reproving facts. 1. Indifference* (v. 2). They were negligent and indifferent, saying the time had not come to build. The same kind of folk today are very sure that the congregation simply cannot afford to keep up preaching services, or heat and light the church for Sunday School. 2. Selfishness (v. 4). They built for themselves ceiled houses and lived in luxury, while God’s house lay waste. One is reminded of our own communities, which have money for every conceivable com­ fort and convenience, but only a few niggardly pennies for God’s work. . 3. Loss (w . 6, 9-11). Being stingy toward God is a losing business. He has only to withhold His blessing and we will find ourselves destitute. That is true in the physical realm and is even more true in the spir­ itual life. Withholding from God will always result in loss (see Prov, 11:24). n . “Build the House” (v. 8). God’s work is constructive. He may have to destroy and tear down, but He only takes away the old and undesirable that the new and worthy may be built. Three words stand out here. 1. “Go.” The Lord wants His people to get into action. Haggai was interested in getting things go­ ing. Let us follow his example. . 2. “Bring.” We are not to come to the Lord’s service empty hand­ ed. Only as He blesses do we have anything to bring, but often we fail to bring even that which He has supplied. 3. “Build.” God’s work is com­ mitted to us. We are to be His builders. III. “The People Obeyed” (v. 12). “Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams” (I Sam. 15:22). God is looking for obedient people, and is ready to bless and use them. The response to Haggai’s message came from 1. The Governor. One wonders what progress America would make back to God if its rulers were to lead us in obedience to His com­ mands and in seeking His face in repentance and prayer. Thank God for every truly spiritually minded national leader, and pray that oth­ ers may yield themselves to the con­ trol of the Lord. Then came 2. The High Priest. AU too often religious leaders have actuaUy hin­ dered the work of God—and what a hindrance they can be! We read that in Haggai’s time the high priest obeyed. Christian leaders, are we too going before our people in un­ questioning obedience to God? If not, why should we not begin now? With such leadership, we are not surprised to hear that 3. The People Also Obeyed and Feared God. Many capable Chris­ tian workers believe that the youth of America of our day, far from being worse than their fathers, are actually seeking for real spiritual leadership. False Christs Shall Rise And then, if any man shaU say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or lo, he is there, believe him not. For false Christs, and false prophets shaU rise, and shaU shew signs and won­ ders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.—Mark 13: 21, 22. Speaking the Truth I had rather suffer for speaking ihe truth, than that the truth should suffer for the want of my speaking. H C W 1 Q. SEW 4 - Ruth Wyetfi Spears REMOVE ROCKERS,AND ADDl CASTERS FOR HEIGHT* 1 PAINT CHAIR AND MAKE ~ i HARMONIZING 'c h in tz CUSHION ,AND BACK C O V r OLD ROCKER ' BEFORE REMODELING A CERTAIN Miss Fixit, and that was not really her name, inherited a house full of furniture that was not old enough to be either quaint or antique. One day she sent for my little Book No. 4, and there she found a sketch show­ ing how to plot a room color plan based on a rug, or a picture, or a piece of drapery material with good coloring. Miss Fixit had a picture that she had always loved because of its beautiful colors. Just for fun, as a sort of game, she made a room color plot based on that picture. Then she sudden­ ly realized that, after all, color is very cheap—anyone can have all they want of it for very little money. That was really a turning point in the life of Miss Fixit. Tliis old rocker that she made over is merely a sample of what may happen when a clever young lady is bent upon bringing color into her life. The chair has been paint ed a pale turquoise blue, and th( seat cushion and back are covered with an inexpensive chintz in tur-. quoise; cherry red; primrose yel­ low and deep green, with red bias bindings.I wish every reader interested in choosing colors for her home might have a copy of my Book 4. It contains an illustrated rule for making a room color plan, based on the colors in a picture; a rug; a vase; or a piece of drapery ma­ terial with lovely colorings. The rule is so clear and easily under­ stood that I am sure every reader of these weekly articles would be delighted to have a copy. To get your copy, send 10 cents in coin and ask for Book 4.

U T U S T E E li Y O U M O R E A B O U T I T No sooner is the June bride back from her honeymoon, than the busi­ness of cooking for two begins! Feeding her new husband will be an important part of the bride’s respon­ sibility, and any of the successful homemakers she knows can tell her that perfectly cooked meals for a hungry husband help to keep the matrimonial ship sailing merrily along. So, why not a kitchen shower for a bride—using for gifts the inexpen­ sive little “gadg­ ets” that will make her hours in the kitchen pleasant? Those are the things the bride isn’t likely to buy herself and the very fact that and inexpensive isn’t apt to get them, either, among her wedding gifts. SmalJ, matching pottery pots for chives and parsley to grow on a sun­ ny kitchen window sill, make a thoughtful gift for a kitchen show­ er; a set of pastel tinted bowl cov­ ers is practical and very moderate­ ly priced; butter paddles, a french potato ball cutter and small earth­ enware pots for baking beans are out-of-the-ordinary kitchen gifts. Any bride will bless you for starting her kitchen library for her—with her own copies of my homemaking book­ lets; Better Baking, Easy Entertain­ ing, Feeding Father and Household Hints.And speaking of a kitchen library —why, not start a collection of fa­ vorite recipes for the bride? Have each guest at the shower bring her very choicest recipe, neatly writ­ ten on a card for the bride’s new recipe box, with the donor’s name and the date of the party just for fun. Give her the recipes, too, that make up the menu for the day.Food, for a kitchen shower, should be “homey,” and informally served —and planned to give the bride sug­ gestions for her own cooking and baking problems.

ON EASTER DAY, 1722, the Dutch Admiral Roggeveen landed on a small Pacific island, which he named after toe day. He must have thought that he was landing in a nightmare, for the shores were ringed with gigantic stone statues, wearing tall red hats, and standing on high plat­ forms with their backs to the sea. And toe whole island was literally covered with statues! They still stand there today. Later visitors made further odd discoveries. It seemed that the inhabitants had suffered a devour­ ing national passion for sculpture. Hardly a boulder or an outcrop of rcck had not been turned into an enormous bust, a fantastic head One Step The sublime and ridiculous are often so nearly related that it is difficult to class them separately.

At the same time, they discovered wooden tablets and other objects covered with a complicated script. This started a series of the most extraordinary theories, including suggestions that Easter island had been occupied by Red Indians, Egyptians, and toe lost tribes of Israel. But nobody managed to put forward a reasonable explana­ tion of how this diversity of races got there, or went away when their work was done! Long-Eared Artists. Then science took a hand. First of all, local legends were investi­ gated, and the islanders told of a migration in the past from a dis­ tant island in the west. Proof came from one of the Gambier islands, over a thousand miles away, in the form of another legend. It told of a defeated chief setting sail to find a new home for his people. Local legend also told of two distinct races inhabit­ ing Easter island, the “long ears” and the “short ears.” And here again, science found toe proof; for skulls found on Easter island show G em s o f Thought TpAKE warning by the mis- fortunes of others, that oth­ ers may not take example from you.—Saadi.

It was their tribal custom to stretch toe lobes of their ears,’ and they wore hats for ceremonial purposes. They were the cre­ ators of the intricate script which cannot be read, but, defeated by the “short ears,” they have faded away and left no one to tell their story. j So far science can speak with authority, but science cannot say why the islanders who migrated to Easter island should have pro­ gressed so far beyond those of their race who inhabit other! islands.

This matter of national defense is something that has been brought to public attention in a very forcible way within the past week or two by war conditions in Europe. Many men of many minds have been sug­ gesting one thing or another to solve the situation at home. One very good solution to saving the union, which has been suggested, is as follows: 1. Tell Roosevelt to resign now and let Garner finish the term. Re­ signations in high places are in or­ der here as well as in England and France. 2. Place experienced business men in the Cabinet. 3. Before appropriating addi­ tional enormous sums for defense, make the money already aporopri ated for less important purposes a- vailable for national defense, for example: a. Change CCC Camps to mili­ tary camps. b. Aoandon, or curtail, WPA projects. Use the appropriated money, through private industry, to build airplanes and other mili­ tary supplies, giving 'regular em­ ployment, under supervision, and stop “leaning on shovels.’’ c. Transfer about 80 percent of the employees now in the federal bureaus to the work of national de fense under the supervision of ex perienced business men. d. Use the vast sums now ap. appropriated for relief in such a way that they not only give relief, but produce war material at rea­ sonable cost. e. Practical ways can be found to use other existing appropriations to produce war material. 4. The use of federal funds to influence voting should be discon­ tinued.—Union Republican. No Surprise.

Primitive Methods ; Need Not Be Fdlowd Advertiaaig J kW * Be Modap ADVERTISE HEREU Socialized Medicine. Many are the proposed measures which hare been placed before con. gress, which, if enrcted into law, would provide some kind of con­ glomeration of socialized medical services. Many American people, wbo for some reason or for no reason at all are being so soft that they want to look to the government for every necessity of life, will be better off if they turn a cold shoulder to many so-called social reforms which are being suggested. Such measures lead into a . state of socialism aud individualism goes out the window. Snch a trend would eventually f od ourselves pay­ ing our wages to the government and politicians would provide some kind of services with that part of the taxes which would not be gob­ bled up in polit Cd waste. ‘Nation’s Business” recent’y ptib Iisbed a picture with an article. The picture showed an impatient physician talking to an elderly lady and the article beneath the picture was as follows: “This doctor can’t sit listening to your tale of woe. He’s not a pri­ vate physician. “ He works for the government, not you. You’re just one ’of', the people assigned to him by the poli­ tical overseer. Ten more of you are in the waiting room, with twen­ ty or thirty to come. “Yon can’t expect time and sym­ pathy under conditions like that. “So snap into it, comrade! Brief Iy now, what seems to be the trou­ ble? “That's socialized medicine, run by politicians and paid for by pay. roll taxes.' “Compare it with the traditional American system of private medi cine, in which the individual free­ ly selects and consults the doctor in an atmosphere of intimate and friendly confidence, • “Private medicine has done a magnificent . work in . the United States. Our average life expect aucy is the highest in the world. Infant and maternal mortality rates are lower than ever. “But this does not interest those who want to set up socialized ibedi- cine.. Law after law is presented to the U, S. Congress and State As­ semblies to put the relations be- doctors and patients under political control. V ‘‘Unless Americatis-llWaidtW sign up for all time they should reject these government Health legislatiye proposals flatly, without, delay.” — Wilkes journal. :’ ' . - Now is the time to scribe for Tbe Record. sub* Property Rights. Two Rockingham youths were .convicted of breaking and entering a shoe repair shop and pilfering a pair of shoes. Judge J. Will PIess sentenced the pair of defendants to from three to five years in ptison at hard work, for this offense. They had disregard property rights, and counting tlie worth of the pair of shoes, plus maybe the damage to a lock that was broken or a window jimmed, the total loss involved in tbeir offense probably was Iessthan five bucks, for which they must sa- scrifice their Iiberiy and lose a lot of profitless sweat during a period of from three %o five years. That probably is as it should be. Offenders must be taught that crime doesn’t pay, and in the pro­ cess of teaching it becomes neces­ sary not to differentiate in the mat. ter of crime’s size. If the Rock ingbam lads bad found a couple of hundred dollars in the shoe shop till and made off will the money, it is probably that their time-serving wouldn’t have been extended. But one wonders what would have happened if instead of a shoe shop there had been a bank, and instead of “ breaking and entering” theie had been an official with the urge to pilfer dollars instead of shoes. TiieGreensboroDaiIyNews does'*'not recall any banker or de faulting public official of recent years who was handed such a pack­ age for an inside job. ’ ’ And further: Bnt rt to 15 years would be a considerable spell of time to do for one pair of shoes split betwean two persons. We are not kicking, understand; but we shall file this sentence away in onr remembrance for purpose of comparing it with that given the official of an eastern county wbo has just admitted a shortage in bis public funds large enough to stock a complete shoe store. In this connection we are remind, ed that somebody made off with more than a couple thousand dol­ lars of Iredell’s money, but be­ cause the bonding company made it good, the grand jury obviously with the approval of the solicitor, didn’t think the county had any kick coming. But that wasn’t breaking and entering. We are remembering, too, that when a banker is charged with questionable short cuts, first thing you know he lands in a velvety gov­ ernment job and . never gives the rockpile a worry .^—Statesville Daily Seen Along Main Street By The Street Rambler.

Who’s A Liberal. The New York World-Telegram:— President Roosevelt has just ex­ hotted his party 10 “ nominate a li­ beral pair of candidates." That onghtn’t to give the De­ mocrats much trottble. Mr. Rocsevelt certainly regards himself as a liberal. Mr. Garner, if less shy of uttei- ance, would call himself a liberal. Mr. Garner, if less shy of utter­ ance, would cull him'elf a liberal. So would Mr. Hull and Mr. Far. ey and Mr. McNutt. Also Mr. Justice Douglas. Mr. Ickes, of course, is positive he is a liberal. (To he positive, ac­ cording to Ambrose Biercein “ The Devil’s Dictionary,” is to be mis­ taken in a loud to of voice.” ) Or, take the Repnbl’cans. Is Mr. Deweya libera’? He would be the last to disown the soft im­ peachment. Mr Taf ? Why, of course. Mr. Vandenberg? No doubt about it. Mr. Hoover? Mr. Joe Martin? Mr: Wilkie, that Democrat emeri­ tus? Mr. Barron? Mr. Gannetl Liberals all, in lhets own estima­ tion, anyway. We never have met a man (ex­ cept a Communistl wbo didn’t re­ paid himself as a liberal, though some of them will say they are conservatives, top. As Alf Landon remarded once, “ The President seems to feel that all he has to do is to wave a flag and shout: ‘AU liberals on this side.’ It is not quite as simple a> that.” And the Baltimore Evan- ing Sun has suggested that in Mr. Roosevelt’s eyes, “a liberal is a guy who shuts bis eyes, opens bis mouth and swallows everything I choose to give him.” There are more serious definit ions, by the thousand. And there’s' no candidate alive, save Earl Brow der, who conldn’t find one to fit himself. Carrier “Resting.” For nearly 33 years Will 0.

YOUR "SHIP WILL, COME OT Sooner By the Aid af Newspapd? ADVERTISING/ Vital to National De- ' h i-jbis nation mnst embari ' the greatest defense program in its history’. AU the countries of the world face unnredictable futures, and of the major nations we saem to be the most poorly prepared to meet possible invasion. Both the politi. cat parties have made an expauded national defense part of their, ob­ jectives, and the public is in over­ whelming agreement. Any national defense program which is to be at all adequate is going to cost money—incredible sums of money. And, in the pres­ ent tangled state .-.ot out tax and fiscal structure, raising that money will demand intelligen. thought and planning. It cannot be raised by beavv increases in taxation with­ out driving us into a new and se­ vere economic depression. - It can­ not be raised by lifting the debt limit and passing the buck' to the taxpayers of the future: withont bringing closer the specter of nat. . ional financial demoralization. It must be raised, in part at least, by governmental economy ani apply­ ing the savings to the national de­ fense. On this point tbe New York Times said editorially: “We mnst drastically cut down tbe scaudalously over-generons sub­ sidies, and duplications, that we have been s. aticr ng in all direc­ tions. If in addition, we revise or repeal some of the well-intentioned legislation and bitreauoiaric rules that stand in the way ot industrial expansion and priva e employment, we can stili further reduce nnem- ployneiit ar.d relief expenditures at the same time as we increase the yield from existing taxes. We mnst recast our thinking, 111 fact, our whole economy. As a nation we will leave more for defease as «e spend less in o> her directions. Would you rather have $200,000- 000 for some one’s net “political” project or tor a “defense” pr< ject such as 2,000 boniliets ot 8,000 out. suit planes? It should he remembered that an orderly fiscal policy is in itself a vital defense factor, l’utting our financial bouse in order is certainly an essential part ot any workable uational defense program. Rise In Wilkie SrteDgth Seen. With ail primaries and state con­ ventions Ior tbe selection; of dele­ gates to the Republican national convention in Philadelphia Iune 24, at an end, party leaders find the nomination for President just as wide open as it was before tbe pri­ maries before the primaries began in March. The one outstanding develop­ ment as tbe roll call of tbe 1,000 delegates is brought to completion is tbe rise in popular strength of Wendell Wilkie,- New York utility executive. . This political pheno­ menon is primarily attribntable to the intensification of tbe war in Europe and the: imperative '-’de­ mand noon this country for effec­ tively-directed preparedness for na. tional defense on an unprecedent­ ed scale. The Wilkie advance is said to be at the expense ot Thomas E. Dew­ ey, however, in the field of popular votes Dewey continues in. all the polls to blanket every other pos­ sible candidate, even though Sena­ tor Robert A.

There is little shrill out­ cry among them. Currently, Mrs. Sadie Orr Dunbar, president of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, and Miss Juliet M. Bartlett, the latter taking of­ fice as newly elected president of the New York Women’s City club, urge calmness. Miss Bartlett says we “should keep our feet on the ground and our heads cool.” Mrs. Danbar, addressing the federation convention at Mil­waukee, stresses the collective need for thought, rather than emotion. “Never in our national history has there been a more desperate need for clear under­ standing,” she says.

Secretary of the Treasury Mor- genthau recently met with repre­ sentatives of the machine tool indus­ try in Washington to start team work on tooling and standardization for the mass production of planes. Participating were Dr. George Jack­son Mead, vice chairman of the Na­ tional Advisory Committee on Aero­ nautics. He accepts a newly creat­ ed post, at $10,000 a year, the office being established to facilitate deci­ sion on types of planes, swift stand­ ardization of parts and swift produc­ tion. On technical qualifications, Dr. Mead shows a good report card, as one of the leading air­ plane designers of America. He received the Sylvanus Reed award, for 1939, for his technical contributions to the advance­ ment of aviation, and his pro­fessional and business experi­ ence has covered both the tech­nical and industrial field. Mr. Mead attended the Massachu­ setts Institute ot Technology from 1911 to 1915. In 1917, he was in charge of the power plants at the laboratories of the United States air station at Dayton, Ohio. He then became a plane designer for the Wright-Martin Aircraft corporation and later chief engineer for the Wright Aeronautical corporation. He founded the Pratt Si Whitney Co., and was chief engineer of the United Aircraft corporation. He is 49 years old, a native of Everett, Mass.

Dressed in faded jeans, a leaky som brero and a blouse that m ost women would use for a dusting rag, she stood in iront of the adobe hut which is her dressing room at Old Tucson. Old Tucson is just w hat it m eans, a repro­ duction of the original walled city of the sixties, where Wesley Ruggles is currently filming Clar­ ence Budington Kelland’s “Arizona.” Situated 16 miles north of present- day Tucson, it is a monument to movie ingenuity, a village of 125 buildings, re-created by Columbia studios’ technicians from the origi­ nal plans of early Tucson. ‘‘Running water is a luxury out here,” Miss Arthur said, wiping the perspiration from her face. “To speak of hot water is heresy. There just isn’t any. Not that a tub of wa­ ter wouldn’t reach the boiling point if placed in the sun, but there are so many horses, cows, dogs and pigs JEAN ARTHUR around here that a tub of water wouldn’t have a chance to get warm.” She has turned her back on glam­our these days. She is bent only on making “Phoebe Titus,” who sold pies for a dollar apiece, believable and real. She is starred in “Ari­ zona,” with William Holden and Warren William backing her up, and she’s going to give us a picture worth seeing and remembering, though the thermometer does regis­ ter 126 degrees. “Waterloo Bridge” is another pic­ ture that you’ll remember. Vivian Leigh proves that, in “Gone With the Wind,” she was no flash in the pan; in fact, she’s as good or better in “Waterloo Bridge” as she was. in that Civil war epic. And the picture gives you a new Robert Taylor. His little moustache is tremendously becoming (even though his wife, Barbara Stanwyck, said “Thumbs down!” when he raised a real one). He puts real life into his role, that of a young Brit­ ish army officer in the last war. The movies are doing very well indeed by Arizona these days. Two hundred and fifty members of the cast and crew of Edward Small’s “Kit Carson” troupe landed in Flag­ staff the other day; among the ac­ tors were Lynn Bari, Jon Hall, Dana Andrews, Raymond Hatton, Director George B. Seitz, and many others whose names are fafniliar to movie-goers. From Flagstaff the entire troupe will go to the Indian trading post of Kayente, on the Navajo Indian res­ ervation, where a special town has beenobuilt to accommodate the Hol­ lywood folk for their month-long stay. The mail response to Johnny Green’s new Sunday evening “Rhyme-O” program seems to up­ set the common belief that writing poetry is the special province of a selected few. On this musical audi- ence-participation program, Johnny uses four-line verses, and asks lis­ teners to send them, $5 going to the writer of each verse used. In one week Green received 10,- 000 individual letters containing rhymes—and there was an average of three rhymes in each letter. The Andrews Sisters, famous “swing” trio formerly heard on Co­ lumbia Broadcasting company’s net­ works with Glenn Miller and his or­ chestra, have journeyed to Holly­ wood; they’re broadcasting nightly from a night club there, and pre­ paring to be starred with the Ritz brothers in a Universal picture called, of all things, “Argentine Nights” !

MALACHI dem ands h o nesty TOWARD GOD LESSON TEXT—Malachi 3:7-lB.GOLDEN TEXT-Bring ye all the tithes Into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me how herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.—Malachi 3:10. Spiritually sick—and desperately so—was Israel in the days of Mal- achi. The nation had been released from captivity , in Babylon and had been back in their own land for almost a century. The outburst of religious enthusiasm which charac­ terized their return had resulted in the rebuilding of the temple (Ezra 1:1-4). In this they were encour­ aged by Haggai, as we recall from our lesson of last Sunday. They had later been led by Nehemiah in re­ newed interest in spiritual things and in the rebuilding of the city wall, but now again they had turned away from God. Malachi came with what one might call God’s last word before judgment upon their sins. The lesson centers around four words. I. Apostasy. “Ye have turned aside” (v. 7, R. V.). This was God’s complaint against His people. In spite of His blessings upon them, they had inter­ married with the heathen, they had dealt treacherously with their breth­ ren, and had neglected to worship God. What was even worse, they felt no conviction about their sin and denied that they owed God any­ thing, not even the debt of common gratitude. Read the insolent, self-confident questions and assertions of the people in verses 7, 8, 13 and 14. Think how perfectly they fit the atti­ tude of thousands of unbelievers and backslidden Christians in our day. One might almost think that Mal- achi were reading the secret thoughts of our own people, and pos­ sibly of our own hearts. II. Robbery. Illness commonly has its center of infection, whether it be physical or spiritual sickness. Malachi struck at a very vital point when he re­ vealed that the heart of Israel’s dif­ ficulty was dishonesty toward God. That dishonesty reflected itself in spiritual things, but, since Malachi was talking to an arguing genera­ tion (just like ours), he gave them a concrete illustration of their deceit —they had withheld from God the tithes and offerings. Men who would never cheat the telephone company out of a nickel will rob God consistently Sunday after Sunday by sanctimoniously slipping a thin dime into the collec­ tion plate. U that is all a man can and should give, God will bless it and multiply it for His glory. But certainly it does not befit one who lives in luxury to give God’s work the smallest piece of change which lie can decently slip into the plate. Tithing may be said to be an Old Testament principle. Doubtless it Is also true that the principle of New Testament Christianity is that all we have belongs to God, but often the one who hides behind that fact does not give as much as the people of Old Testament times. Is that honest? III. Judgment. God is love, but that does not mean that His patience is without limit nor that He will forever with­ hold judgment. He says, through Malachi (v. 9), “Ye are cursed with a curse.” The blessing has been withheld (v. 10). The devourer is in the land (v. 11). He promised them release and blessing if they repented and returned to the right way, which obviously means that their failure to do so would bring judgment. We know that Israel despised God’s warning and to this day is paying for its sin. Will America be wise enough' to heed God’s call? IV. Blessing. So often the loving God had to speak through His prophets of im­ pending judgment on sin, but how gracious He is in that He always holds out the promise of blessing for repentance and obedience. Look at the precious promise in verse 10. Thousands of Christians join the writer in saying, “That is true in A. D. 1940 just as it was in 400 B. C.” Read verses 11 and 12. Note that our God is not only a great God, but a good God. Consider the blessings of spiritual fellowship—the certainty of victory revealed in verses 16 and 17. One marvels that Israel could resist such a loving plea just as one wonders also why men of our owA day of God’s grace still resist His gracious invitation. A Helpful Heart It. is a fine thing to do kindly, helpful deeds. It is one of the very finest in the world. But there is something finer than the helpful hand; it is the helpful heart.

The majority of o is playtime. The majority of our mammals have their young in the early months of the year, and in April and May it is possible to watch the most delightful games among the puppies of the fields. Badger, fox and otter cubs are very playful little creatures. The otter and badger appear to have a certain amount of method in their games, but fox cubs simply romp among themselves in a wild abandon. On a sloping sand cliff near my home seven fox cubs came out of a large hole; on the ledge just outside they played with a round stone, pushing it with their feet, tossing it in the air and allowing it to run down the slope. When tired of this they played a game which resembled “Follow the Leader.” One would run for­ ward, dodge and leap over all kinds of imaginary obstacles, and the others would follow in its tracks; then all would roll togeth­ er in a rough and tumble, in which their small teeth would tug at the fur of their companions. Bouncing Badgers. Young badgers are among the most amusing cubs to watch at play. With their bold black and white markings they are quaint- looking little creatures, and rath­ er clumsy, but there is no doubt that they thoroughly enjoy life, and their play is exuberant and- stren­ uous. First they poke their noses in the ground, searching for hidden gTubs; then, without any warning, all stiffen their fur, making it stand upright, and now they look twice their size. With their short legs also stiffened they bounce round one another like footballs, then leap in, grip a mouthful of fur, and roll over and over. They break apart, and again play the bouncing game, and just as sud­ denly as they started to play they cease, and the next moment all are diligently searching for more food. Fnn in the Water. Many young otters are bom at an awkward time, that is at the beginning of winter, but they are hardy little creatures and appear to be able to stand any amount of cold. Otters, more than any other wild creatures, show us that they thoroughly enjoy life; a plentiful supply of food makes them con­ tented, and both parents and young play the most delightful games. What appeared to be a large brown ball was floating gently down stream, hardly making a W ise and O therw ise fT tHE hardest tumble a man - can take is to fall over his own bluff. Consistency is a jewel which pawn­brokers refuse to recognise. We should be kind to poor old worn-out horses. There are some men who put their shirts on them. Intelligence test (for girl): Can she refuse a kiss without being deprived of it? No, a grass widow is not a woman whose husband died of hay fever. Some girls are called gold diggers, but they are faithful to the last fiver. ripple as it swept along. Suddenly the ball seemed to burst open with a loud splash, and four excited ot­ ters with their bright, eager eyes well above the water, started swimming round one another. One leaped right out of the stream and over its companions to dive on the other side, and as they floated along this acrobat made circles around them, those below trying to grip it as it passed over. Then they all joined up again, and seemed to be having a struggle as to which could pull the others un­ der the surface, a sort of spirited ducking game. They continue to play until all are tired. Then the parents lead their young off to a well-hidden lair, where they all sleep until hunger and high spirits call again. —Oliver G.

GRANTt Commissioner, I Mocksville CCC Camp. R. Alton Jackson, in Twin-City Sentinel. Uncle Sam’s “soldiers of tbe soil,” Civilian Conservation Corp Company No. 3408, are busily en- gaged in establishing headquarters in Mocksville. Recently moved from a point near Lexington, the >79 young meu in tbe camp, not including of­ ficers, are working now under the direction of civilian carpenter fore' men and carpenters in erecting their camp buildings. The camp is located on the Statesville load, on the ;dge of the Mocksville city limits. First Lieut Charlos R. Wright, Jr , is in charge of tbe camp, assis­ ted by Second Lieut. W. D. Ves­ tal, with Dr. Daniel Rothsteln as camp surgeon. The discipline of tbe members of the company is un­ der the direction of these officers, while they work ueder the direc­ tion of these officers, while they work under the direction of the soil conservation service, G. B. Foster, project superintendent. More buildings are to be used than were m the camp at Lexlng ton. At the present camp there are or will be five barracks, a mess hall; recreation hall, school build* ing, officers’ quarters, headquar­ ters building, infirmary and other necessary bath and toilet buildings. This is in the CCC division. In addition the soil conservation ser­ vice, located adjacent to tbe CCC camp, includes four new garages, S. C. S. quarters, and S. C. S headquarters. Buildings in some respects are larger in the CCC camp than they were in Lexington because the per sonnel of t&e company is expected to be increased to some extent shortly and perhaps even more: Ia' ter. On July I there will be 79 new men in the camp, tbis . being the quota assigned company 3408. About 30 of tbe present 179 men will be mustered out of service, their time having expired, leaving a net gain of 49 as of July I, bring­ ing the total “strength" of the company to 228 men, excluding officers. Then abont July 1, officers of company 3408 are expecting 75 new recruits for "conditioning” before they are sent to the West coast. When these men anive the camp strength will be raised to about 303 for at least 20 days. The 75 re. cruits are expected to leave about Julv 20 for the West coast- Campsj of the CCC after they have been, properly outfitted, disciplined and conditioned for tbe CCC work. Not all of the numerous build­ ings in tbe camp can be seen from the highway. Most of the bar­ racks are bnilt in the woods, giv. ing the boys a cool place this sum­ mer to rest on their time off and to sleep during the hot nights. Tbe catnp presents a busy atmosphere as tbe boys work on completing the movable bouses, getting every­ thing in readiness for a long stay. With the exception of tbe help being given by the several civilian carpenters, the boys are doing the work themselves. They have built roads throngh the camp and other­ wise conditioned tbe grounds in ad dition to putting up the buildings. ~ First building completed was the mess ball. Here several boys work faithfully peeling the thousands ofi potatoes and otherwise preparing | the huge quantities of food that on'y 179 hungrv young men can put behind thtir belts three times a dav. The mess hall, without doubt the most popular spot in tbe camp, is under the direction of Mess Serg- eant I. L. Wright. Once the camp is properly estab­ lished tbe personnel will begin their' usual work in repairing soil erosion damage and in working with the landowners in the area in prevent­ ing erosion in the future.

This applies to everything from cough drops to automobiles and combines. All kinds of liars are already he Ing circulated about what the va rious county nominees have said or done, have promised or not promts ed to do, if elected next fall. We sincerely trust that there will be no mud-slinging during the coming campaign. Let’s stick to the truth and hope the best men win. ‘ If we are not mistaken, the New Deal, through the NRA, and other wild laws, tried to nut big business but of business a few years ago. Among the number was Henry Ford. But Henry is still in busi­ ness, and declares that if the Gov­ ernment wants airships he can pro .‘duce a thousand ships a day if the .’Government will. attend to their business and keep hands off This country needs the big businessman in peace or in war.

MWW VMw* L A R R I M O REe MACRAE SMITH Ca WNU SERVICB THE STORT THUS FAR CbaTming, wealthy Gabriella (Gay for short) Graham, engaged to Todd Janeway, re- a t o a cabin in the Maine woods accompanied- by a friend, Kate Oliver. Ibe Uea of a stay In the cabin occurred to her when she received a key to it follow- tog the death of her godfather. Unde John Lawrence. The two girls notice that someone is living In the cabin. Kate suspects that Gay knows the identity of the mysterious occupant. The mystery man returns. He is John Houghton, a young doctor whom Gay had known in previous years. Immediately aggressive. Gay asks Him by what right he is In the cabin. His right, she finds, is greater than her own. He, too. possesses a key, but more than that, is heir to it from his Unde John, Gay's godfather. Gay is high handed with him, and he states courteously that he will leave. Looking at him in the doorway, her old feelings return. She knows that be is more necessary to her than is Todd Janeway, the man she is to marry. Gay asks John to reconsider his decision to leave. The next morning brings a different feding, and John decides to remain for his vacation—one more week. Hie night before Gay and Kate are to return home to New York John gets an urgent request to call at a nearby farm. Gay accompanies him while be cares for the patient. Ketuming to the cabin at a late hour, John stops the car. He tells Gay that he loves her, and she admits that he is necessary to her happiness. Meanwhile, wor­ried by their absence, Kate has called Todd Janeway In New York. She knows that Gay and John feel a strong attachment for each other, and wants Todd to come to Maine where he can talk to Gay. CHAPTER V—Continued Sympathies were treacherous. John and Gay looked at Kate as though she had given them a re­ prieve from death. Seeing the grati­ tude and affection for her shining in Gay’s face, in John’s, she felt with uncomfortable sharpness that un­ justified sense of guilt. She walked to the icebox, stooped, jerked open the door. She had been right to call Todd last night. But knowing that he was now, at this moment, on his way to the lake, was no longer the sus­ taining relief-it had been. She felt like a traitor. She felt as though she should be taken out to the clear- ingbehind the cabin, stood up against the woodshed, and shot. The long low roadster sped down a bill, across a bridge in a swampy hollow, up a gently rising grade. Todd Janeway, his blond head bare, his body slumped with fatigue against the leather upholstery, his eyes smarting from the sting of the wind, glanced at the speedometer. Better take it easy, he thought, slackening the rushing speed of the car. Lucky he’d left word at home where he was going last night. He’d expected to hear from her. He wouldn’t have been surprised if she’d walked in on Tory Wales’ par­ ty. A week, she’d said, and Gay kept Ber promises. But it had been Kate who called. She’d said Gay didn’t know she was calling. The tele­ phone connection was bad. He hadn’t been able to hear very well. "When he’d learned that Kate wanted him to come, he’d concentrated on getting the directions she gave him fairly clear in his mind. Gay—I Steady, Janeway. The thing to do was to concentrate on getting there. He’d know soon enough what the trouble was. Or maybe there was no trouble. Kate hadn’t made her reason for his com­ ing very clear. Maybe Gay wanted him to drive them back to New .York. The trip up in Kate’s coupe couldn’t have been too comforta­ble. That was something to tie to. But Kate had told him Gay didn’t know she was calling— ’ He was too weary, now, to think clearly. Perhaps she’d just been tired, as she said, worn out with preparations for the wedding, ex­ hausted by all the demands upon her vitality and patience. She’d wanted it, though. He’d been a lit­ tle surprised, last June when the engagement had been announced, that she had agreed to the hue and cry both families raised for a wed­ ding. She’d told him she wanted everything to be right and proper and in accordance with tribal tra­ ditions. He’d been surprised but touched and pleased, though he hat­ ed the fuss. He hadn’t realized, then, that she was substituting the symbols of marriage for something that was lacking, die one thing that made it right. That was before he bad watched her grow more and more remote, not sharing her thoughts with him, making excuses for not being alone with him, shut­ ting him off behind a wall of light mockery through which he could see her but could not touch her, not ac­ tually, not the Gay herself, whom be loved. This must be Northfield. Better ask directions from here. He pulled in at a filling-station at the side of the road. A gangling boy with buck teeth and a shock of sunburned hair appeared in response to the bleat «f his horn. “Can you tell me how to get to the Lawrence camp?” Todd asked. The boy was lost in admiration Rar the car. “How far do I follow this road?" Toddaskedbrusquely. "Oh, eyah. 'Bout a mile and a half. You’ll see the name on the mail-box.” “Thanks.” Todd tossed a coin to the boy, re­ leased the brake and pressed the accelerator, A mail-box. Todd slackened the speed of the car. A figure detached itself from the vines and underbrush at the side of the road. A long arm waved in greeting. Katel “Hellol” he called and brought the car to a stop. No other figure to greet him. He felt his heart thud painfully. “Where’s Gay?” Kate stood in the road beside him. “Out on the lake," she said. Kate’s expression was composed. She looked quite natural, a little tired, perhaps, but serene. “Fishing,” she added. “You took a time getting here.” “I was arrested.” His spirits lift­ ed. Kate looked as he was accus­ tomed to see her, lanky and rakish in a tweed skirt and green wool blouse, her expression a charac­ teristic blending of wry humor and casual friendliness. He opened the door. “Get in, Kate. You look like a slightly sardonic wood-nymph. How’s your generator, my friend?" “My what?” she sat beside him and he turned the car into the lane. He laughed. “I heard, a few min­ utes ago, that you’d had trouble with it.” “That boy with the teeth!” Watdw ing her in a side-long glance, he saw her expression change. She looked, though he could scarcely credit it, as if she was about to burst into tears. “It isn’t that bad, is it?” he asked but the laughter had gone out of her voice. “It’s as bad as can be,” Kate said with difficulty. “Is Gay ill? Has she been hurt?” “Worse than that.” He stopped the car in the lane. “What is it? What has happened?” She turned to him, her face work­ ing queerly. “I meant to break it to you gently,” she burst out. “I’ve been sitting out there by that mail­ box for hours thinking of what I should say. There isn’t any way to say it except to tell you the truth and I’d rather be chopped up and thrown to the wolves. I shouldn’t have called you last night.” “Why shouldn’t you have called me?” “Because it’s none of my busi­ ness. Yes, it is. I love hex and I know it’s all wrong." “What’s all wrong?” “Gay has fallen , in love,” Kate said wildly. “He was here when we came.” “Who was here?” “John Houghton, Dr. Lawrence’s nephew. Do you remember him at Gay’s debutante party? Nice look­ ing. Dark and rangy.” “I remember.” He slumped back behind the wheel. “Did die come here to meet him?” he asked. “No. He just happened to be here. The long arm of coincidence.” She gave a crack of nervous laughter. “Don’t ever say anything Js im­ possible. But she came here be­ cause she’s been in love with him since the summer they spent here with Dr. Lawrence six years ago. Would you have thought Gay was romantic? She’s fairly wallowing in it. Little fool!” “You aren’t very convincing, Kate.” He smiled wearily. “Do you like him?” “I do. That’s the trouble. He is attractive. And so in love unto her. But it’s all wrong.” “Why is it—wrong?” he asked qui­ etly. She glanced at him in relief and admiration. “Did you expect me to'go melo­ dramatic?” he said. “I’m afraid that’s a little out of my line. Why did you call me?” “I hoped we might get her away from here—in time." “And there isn’t—time? Ifs too late, now?” “I’m afraid so. Last night—” Ste hesitated for a moment then plunged on. “They haven’t told me any­ thing. But the way they act is enough. I’ve tried all day to tell them' you were coming. I couldn’t. I feel like a traitor until I think of— Todd, what do they think of all this at home?” “It’s been pretty awful. Funny, though—None of that seems impor­ tant—now.” CHAPTER VI In toe hidden inlet the simset dimmed to a honey-colored tiiisk. The canoe, moored beneath Iovr hanging brandies, was motionless, The wind in toe pine trees made a whispering sound. ' “It’s like listening to a sea-shell,” Gay said. Her head, resting against John’s shoulder, lifted so that their eyes met and held. “You’re crying,” he said. "Am I?” “Why do you cry?” “Because I’m so blissful. Because sometime you may die or I may.” She laughed softly. "I don’t know;” “Darling! Sweet! Are you sure?" “Oh John, yes!” “It might be because we’re here. The lake, the cabin—This is the set­ting that’s most—” He broke oft with a diffident laugh, then contin­ ued. “The setting that’s most—be­ coming to me. Will you love me in—” “—September as I do in May.” “I meant if—when we’re togeth­ er in New York?” “Oh darlmg, yes! In Venice or Shanghai or—Baltimore.” “Why Baltimore?” “We’re going to live there.” “Oh, are we?” “You’ve been telling me for a week toat you want to do research at Johns Hopkins. Well—?” “You’re a practical young lady, aren’t you? I haven’t been able to 9 She’d told Wm she wanted every­ thing to be right. think beyond this moment, now. I may not be able to get in at Hop­ kins.” “I think you will. My grandfa­ ther gave toe hospital an endow­ ment. He had an operation there. It can be arranged.” His arms relaxed. His head turned. She gave a little cry. “I know what you’re thinking. Oh, John, don’t! Why shouldn’t I help you? I love you. Everything will be not for you nor for me but for us.” He turned to her. “I’m sorry," he said. “It’s just toat—I can’t be­ lieve any of it—you, us, being here. I can’t realize toat there’s no need to fight against loving you. I have for so long.” “It doesn’t matter, does it? There aren’t any words. Just being here with you—I feel—” “How do you feel?” “Safe and peaceful.” “Peaceful?” The honey-colored dusk paled, deepened to toe mauve of twilight. Darkness fell. One by one the stars pricked a brightened pattern across toe sty. Gay stirred in John’s arms. “What?” he asked. “We should go back, I suppose. Kate has probably gotten supper.” “Supper?” She laughed. “I’m not hungry ei- toer.” Her face, as he watched, be­ came grave. “We’ll have to tell Kate.” “I don’t think Kate needs to be told.” “She has something on her mind, certainly. She’s been cross all day.” “Kate doesn’t like me.” “Oh, no, John. It isn’t toat. She’s thinking of toe fuss there’ll be at home.” “Aren’t you?” “I haven’t' been.” “I am. Do you want me to go with you? I should be in Portiand day after tomorrow. But if it would help—** “It wouldn’t. You aren’t used to cataclysms. I am.” She sighed, then smiled and pressed closer to him. “Don’t think of it now. Let’s keep this time for ourselves. It’s going to be all right. Don’t think. Just love me.” “Gay—” he said barely audibly. “Yes—?” “I wanted to hear your voice. I felt as though you had gone.” “I’m here.” “Don’t leave me.” He dropped his hand gently upon her head. “I can’t leave you.” She caught his hand, pressed it against her cheek. “I’m part of you.” Darkness lay oyer the landing. He stepped out and fastened toe tie- rope. Bending, he took her hands to pull her up to the planking beside him. His arms went around her, held her there close against his breast. “I can’t let you go.” “Let’s stay here.” “Oh, Gay, if we could—!” “It’s going to be all right. Noth­ ing can spoil it, except ourselves. We must be very careful.” “You’re so lovely. I can’t think when I’m with you like this. What you say—That’s not very flattering. I meant, I just hear your voice. I’ve loved you so long, so hope­lessly—” “Not hopelessly now.” “I can’t believe it.” “We’ll go in and tell Kate.” Her voice was gay and confident. "That will help you to believe.” “I’m afraid of Kate. I’m afraid to go in.” “Silly. I’ll hold your hand tight­ ly. Like this.” They walked, hands joined, up the path from the landing to toe cabin. As he opened the porch door for her, she halted. “Someone is here!” She dropped his hand. The windows were raised. Through the screening ctfme a murmur of voices inside the cabin. Gay took a few steps away from him, glanced in, then turned. In toe light flood­ ing through the window he saw toat her face was grave and startled. “Who—” The question caught In his throat. He took a step. “Todd is here,” she said and was silent. He caught her arm, drew her close to him. "Gay," he asked, "you’re all mine?” Her face relaxed. She smiled up at him. “All yours,” she said. Gay took a cigarette from a box on the table. Todd, seated in a chair beside the hearth, snapped a lighter. John, standing, half leaning against the chimney, struck a match Both made a movement toward her. “Thank you, but never mind.” Her bright strained glance went from one to the other. She rose, from the couch. “I’ll do it my way. They taste better.” She held toe cigarette over toe lamp chimney until its tip glowed red. “Do you remember, Todd? I learned toat trick at Tory Wales’ camp, the week-end we were toere and a storm cut off the elec­ tricity.” “Tory knows plenty of tricks.” Todd sat back in his chair. “By the way, she’s going to m any her Englishman.” “Do you hunt here?” Todd asked John, breaking a lengthening si­ lence. “Not often, now,” John replied civilly. “I used to when I was in school. That head toere on the wall was my first trophy." “It’s a good one.” Todd rose, walked across toe room to examine toe deer head on the wall. John joined him.' They talked of hunt­ ing, diffidently at first and then with increasing interest. (TO BE CONTINUED) Economist Forecasts Age Vs. Youth Struggle Dr. Frank S. Dickinson, Univer­ sity of Illinois economist, foresees the approach of a class struggle be­ tween age and youth.He said in an address recently that toe “war of the pensionnaires” would unfold as a problem “far more de­ manding” than the oft-discussed con­ flict between capital and labor. Dr. Dickinson said the decreasing birth rate and toe increasing life span were causes behind the “strug­ gle of classes in America." But he said he does not expect toe strug­ gle to become critical until 1980, when, he estimated, there will be 25,000,000 persons in toe United States more than 65 years of age./ He visioned possible results of what he predicted would be “toe greatest cultural and social change since toe fall of Rome” as follows: Pension-taxation claiming on* fourth the income of workers and employers. Destruction of the two major po­ litical parties.Control by toe “hand that rocks toe rocking-chair.” Substitution of “votocracy” for democracy,- with one of every voters over the 65-year Jht Ruth W y e th S p e a rs l/SE 4 BOARDS EACH I'x s'x r SCREW HINGES IO COVERED BOARDS "IStf.

Now, just fol­ low the directions in the sketch and you will have your screen in no time.

MOTION PICTURE STRESSES IMPORTANCE > OF BUYING FROM HOME FOLKS I f I • The importance of buying from home folks is stressed In the new motion picture “The New South,” now being shown throughout the Southern states by the distributors of Arcadian Nitrate. The picture demonstrates vividly how the dol­ lars spent at home do their, work of bringing prosperity to the South over and over again. "The New South” represents months of work by a production crew of experts who, after extensive research, toured the Southeirn states. AU scenes In the picture were filmed on the actual locations depicted; there were no paid act­ ors among the cast of 500;"and ev­ ery bit of action was natural, none was staged. The theme of the picture is ex­ pressed by this quotation from its script; “They opened up a wilder­ ness, hill and tableland—and every kind of soil—sandy loams and clay loams, soils of many colors—yellow, red and black. Every kind of land for any kind of crop, and no frost half .the year. A young land and a great people, hardy, resourceful, and proud—and they built an em­ pire!"

In the thinking of some the omi­ nous turn of war news of late makes President Roosevelt more logically the man to succeed himself in the White House than he was before fighting in Europe became so f c- tive. Did it ever occur to you that the more serious the war becomes less logical Mr. Roosevelt is as the man to lead us in that emergency? Lynn Landrum, one of the best known political writers in the South, writing in the Dallas, Tex­ as Morning News, says that the suggestion is based upon three known characteristics of Mr. Roose­ velt as is shown in his more than seven years as President. These characteristics of Mt. Roosevelt as is shown in bis more than seven years as President. These chatac teristics, writes Mr. Landrum, are: ‘*1. Mr., Roosevelt is impulsive, flashy and prone to seek only yes- man advice. ' “2. Mr. Roosevelt is fabulous­ ly extravagant and improvident. ‘‘3. Mr. Roosevelt uses an em­ ergency to force over bis pet econo­ mic and sociologic ideas even when (he latter interfere and defeat bis primary responsibility. “If America, under Mr. Roose­ velt again, is likely to be urged prematurely into war, then we’d better not elect him. “If America, under Mr. Roose- velt again, is likely to be crippled by poor financial conditions so that it will be the worse off to defend itself in case of war, then we’d bet­ ter not elect him. “If America under Mr. Roose­ velt again, is likely to emerge from a second participation in world war with all our State rights merged in­ to a strontly centralized Washing­ ton Goverment and the liberties of everybody impaired, from pressers of pants to captains of industry, then we'd better not elect him.”— Ex.

Speed—the killer—kept its dead Iy work on North Carolina high ways during the first four months ot this year, according to figures just compiled hy the Highway Safety Division in Raleigh. Records of the Division show that five out of every six traffic fa­ talities in the state during the four months, period iccurred iu rural areas and small towns. To be spe­ cific, only 40 of the 231 traffic deaths for the four months ocrnreJ in- cities of '10,000 papulation or over, while 191 of the fatalities happened in small towns and out on the open highway. “ It’s not wnete traffic is thickest that the most traffic deaths oocur,” declared Ronald Hoctttt, Director of the Safety Diyisicn, “its where traffic is fastest-.’’ “ When two cars col.He on a cOuguested city street the cars usually suffer.tlamage only and the occupants probably suffer minor inju'ies. but when two cars breezing along on an open high, way collide, a fatality occurs more often than not.” Last year's accident record for NorthCaroIina showthat 182 fa talities occurred iu 4.026 traffic ac­ cidents in cities and towns, wbiie 761 people were killed in 4,131 ac. cidents in rural areas of (he state. Hocutt srid speed too fast for existing conditions was the princi­ pal facto- figUiing in the higher ratio of traffic deaths in n ra l areas.

You have rerhaps read where mayors and governors and others have been to Washington to plead for aid for-the. millions of ill-fed, ill clad, ill-boused population. It must be liumilialing to these plead­ ers for aid to have to admit that such conditions, as they describe exist after over seven years of New Deal administration. Seven years ago FDR took over America to make: it over and he’s , s H opposed 10 giving it back.

So far as the attitude of the Unit­ ed States toward events in Europe is concerned, we do not agree with the views held by some—that there is too much emotionalism and “hys­ teria” in evidence. We think it’s merely a question of common sense. It amounts to this: Do we want to live in a world that is dominated by German influences and German precepts, or don’t .we? The answer is—we don’t! That being so, we believe that A* merlca should do everything with­ in its power to help the cause of the Allies—short of sending our men overseas. AVe are heartily in accord with the proposed shipment of munition ahd supplies, because in doing that, we are protecting our own interests-and our own wel­ fare. If this had been done some time ago, it would have ’ been of even greater benefit than now. But it isn’t tOo late by apy means, so let’s pui an end to our attribute of bypocricy and render the Allies the kind of service they need and which we are justified in giving to them.—The State.

AnythintfinOur to deliver. I Defense Effort Youn« ^nd energet I c Sherman M. Fairchild, president of the Fairchild Engine and Airplane corporation, thought “anything ■would be possible” provided suf­ ficient money, materials and person­ nel were available. He was re­ assuring as to the industry’s capaci­ ties in tooling, plants and other re­ quirements for a quick shift to mass production. Mr. Faircbild is, himself, re­ assuring: in exemplifying the tradition of Tankee inventive­ ness. His father, the late Cieorge Winthrop Fairchild, once chairman of the International Business Machines corporation, was the inventor of the dial tele­ phone, the computing machine and finally the adding machine, to keep track of his mounting millions—about 10 of which went to his son. He had begun his business career at $8 a week.. “Anything is possible” seems to ; have ■ been a sort of family slogan. As a youth, Sherman M. Fairchild was mainly interested in cameras. His father had tapped him for junior executive of his company. ,When the young man stuck to cameras, this interest later shading into airplanes, his family was indul­ gent, They thought the boy was just having a “wanderjahr” and would round up at a desk when the time came. But the camera obses­ sion wasn’t just monkey business. At 21, he had invented an unique flashlight camera and several years later brought through a radial aerial camera, organized the Fairchild Aerial Surveys and caught attention with a trail-blazing aerial survey of New York. This led to plane-build­ ing. In 1927, he corralled several companies, set Igor Sigorsky build­ ing planes and turned out the first :cabin monoplane in the United ‘States. Red Cross Chief , Lauds Response Given to Appeal ; CINCE chivalry is not inseparable ^ from patriotism, this writer masked Norman H. Davis, chairman !of the Ammcan Bed Cross, to send to this col­ um n a few paragraphs about the work of the Red Cross in its greatest endeavor. He responded as follows: “Anyone attempting to bring ma­ terial assistance to the millions of homeless and miserable war refu­ gees is inevitably seized with a sense of futility. Thare is so much that needs doing immediately, and there are so many obstacles to over­ come that the burden of responsibil­ ity becomes almost overwhelming. “These moods of futility I can dispel by concentrating my thoughts on the splendid sup- . port received by the American Red Cross from all over the country. When I think of the 350,000 volunteers sewing band­ ages and knitting garments, or of the millions of Americans in every walk of life who are con­ tributing to the Bed Cross war- ; relief fund, my spirits are im­ mediately buoyed. Pride in the generous and patriotic response . of the public gives each Bed Cross worker new courage to carry out his tasks. “The war-relief funds are going to work for humanity almost as fast as they come in. Relief supplies are being distributed, hospital supplies are on the way and ambulances have been ordered. Clothing and surgical dressings are being shipped to the stricken areas, in huge quantities. Our activities are rapidly being geared to greatly increased needs as the toll of invasion continues to mount. I have an abiding faith that the people of this country will help the Red Cross keep pace with its -increasing obligations. Mr. Davis is a Southerner by birth, and therefore fundamen­tally humane; as a successful I business man and financier, he. is effective, and as a European |i ambassador at large under five Presidents, he is discreet. In the dark depths of the rear seat of his town car, one night two years ago, I had a talk with him about power politics in Europe. He was, iindeed, discreet, but I gained an !impression of his shrewd awareness jof the deeper realities of the Euro­ pean impasse, as now tragically re­pealed. When, later, he was ap­ pointed chairman of the Red Cross, it seemed to me that our greatest humane tradition had been fortu­ nately personalized, in a man with both a-touch of homespun and the sophistication of one accustomed to getting things done. &t&asA!i Ti & ■ '> An aerial view of Gibraltar, Britain’s mighty fortress at the entrance to the Mediterranean, one of the key points of the European chessboard.

Cottons Cfo to Top of the List In Fabric Aristocracy Class By CHERIE NICHOLAS in i “ * 3 / W h e n it comes to fabric aristoc­ racy cottons are tops this season. It’s not only that ging- h a m s a n d piques and gabardines and sharkskin, dimities, voiles, chintz, percale, swisses and organdies are smart for daytime it is the style prestige that is accorded them for dine, dance and evening wear, no matter how formal the occasion, that is the news that is big news. Speaking of smart cottons for par­ ty, wedding, and graduate wear, the new Swiss organdies are simply breathtaking in their loveliness. As a convincing argument behold the enchanting evening frock pictured in the foreground of the accompanying illustration. With its yards and yards of full-flounced skirt it is rem­ iniscent of the old South. By the way, most stylish cottons this sum­ mer are of the romantic type, and this lovely model is no exception to the rule. The fine Swiss cloque organdy which fashions this lovable gown has a June-garden patterning of rose, blue, lavender and white flowers that is simply entrancing. Tiny rose and blue velvet bows pret­ tify the skirt flounces catching also the front draping of the flattering bodice. Soft shirring adds interest to the brief puffed sleeves. Formal bands of fine embroidery and cutout are lavishly applied to sheer crystal-clear Swiss organdy for the graceful summer party frock shown above to the left. Under the demure collared bolero the low-cut camisole bodice is finely tucked be­ low a wide-edging of , embroidery which is repeated as shoulder straps. The endlessly swirling skirt is caught at the waist by a wide pastel taffeta girdle finished with a miniature corsage in delicate shades. It adds to the zest of the new summer fashions that they are that versatile in their styling. You can choose any silhouette you please and be “in style” whether your choice be mermaid slimness 01 “Gone With the Wind” southern belle types that register picturesque boufiancy. One of the fascinating vagaries of the present mode is the tiered silhouette as pictured to the right in the group. Ari' adorable multi-colored floral printed cloque organdy fashions this tiered frock which, we are quite sure you will agree, bespeaks a new high in summer prettiness. Speaking of the now-so-fashionable cloque sheers, an exquisite tissue- like matelasse seersucker has been brought out this season that is tak­ ing the world of fashion by storm. This exquisite sheer in dark colors makes up beautifully for day wear as well as for night and it is ever so lovely in pastel colorings. For the woman who sews, these diapha­ nous seersuckers are a veritable find in that the simpler you make them up the more effective is the gown, since the material is so all-sufficient within itself. Another sheer enjoying a maxi­ mum of style prestige is dotted swiss, especially red dots on white, for white with red accents is all the rage just now. You will find, like­ wise, that cotton sheers that are spectacularly patterned with gor­ geous red Sowers or other motif in red are ever so good style this sea­ son. With these red and white cot­ tons wear a red hat with matching gloves and for a fine finesse climax the ensemble with red shoes such as were so successfully launched for Southern resort wear earlier in the year. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) H o o d s E v e r y w h e r e Everything that can be consistent­ ly styled with a hood is being styled with a hood. Most of the hoods are detachable which makes them emi­ nently practical. When you go mo­ toring or stroll on the beach with a snappy wind blowing off the water, when you go to midsummer night dance parties a short coat with de­ tachable hood made of camel’s hair and lined with red Scotch plaid as here illustrated will- serve you well. A coat of this type with its cunning hood is likewise lovely if carried out in pastels. O f f - F a c e B e r e t s C o n tr o l H a i r d r e s s Much is being said lately in re­ gard to the reja.tion; of hairdress and hat. The recent trend toward big off-face berets worn far back an the head may, so fashion experts declare, bring about a revival of the pompadour since most hats of this type are even now posed behind a mass of, cur.ls atop the forehead. F a n c y I s T u r n i n g T o P i n k A c c e n ts If you will look about in the neck­ wear departments you will note a surprising showing of dainty pink collars and cuffs, jabots and other accessory items. Go to the jewel­ ry section and it is possible you will think you are “seeing through rose- colored glasses” for many of the clips, brooches, earrings, bracelets and necklaces register pink tones and tints. The same may be said of gloves of flowers and down in Southland during the resort period the accent on pink expressed itself in dainty flannel coats such as many a fashionable wore. Which all goes to show that the flair for pink accessory touches is very much in evidence this season and all ■ through the summer fash­ ions one will see the new black or navy sheers so popular for after­ noon wear, made lovely and appeal­ ingly feminine with flattering ac* cents of pink! A ll- W h it e F a s h i o n G a i n i n g M o m e n tu m The all-white movement is gain­ing momentum. The fashionable thing to do is to carry it out from head to foot. The young smart set are thrilled with the idea of all-white so much so they dance in white, play in white, in fact take keen de­ light in ensembling dress, hat, bag, gloves, shoes, to which they add jew. elry and flowers all in white.

TH E DAVIE RECORD,MOCKS VILLE, N. C. STAGESCRE By VIRGINIA VALE (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) E A C H year Hollywood m a k e s a “s le e p e r” — a picture that, during the m ak­ ing, created no excitem ent, but during the preview show­ ing had all the earm arks of being one of the best of the year. “It Happened One Night” and “M r. Smith Goes to W ashington” are two of the better known sleepers. This year’s, according to som e of the people who have seen it, m a y be “D ow n W ent Me- Ginty.” Written and directed by Preston Sturgis, with a cast including Muriel Angelus, Brian Donlevy and Akim Tamiroff, it is the "saga of a bum.” It may be the making of a new star, Mmiel Angelus. In England she is one of the foremost musical MURIEL ANGELUS comedy stars; she played the lead in "Balalaika” on the stage there— you’ll recall that Nelson Eddy and Ilona Massey did the picture ver­ sion. She has been in this country for two years; last year, while sing­ ing on the New York stage in “The Boys From Syracuse,” she was signed up by Paramount, and “The Light That Failed,” with Ronald Colman, was her first picture. Then she did “Safari” and “The Way of AU Flesh,” foUowed them with “Down Went McGinty.” When John Barrymore seemed to be unavailable for the role of John Barrymore in "The Great Profile,” at Twentieth Centory-Fox, Adolphe Menjon was engaged for it. Then Barrymore’s plans changed, he took the part, and Menjon took his sal­ ary, as Ute studio had no other pic­ ture ready for him. Rod Cameron, a young, six-foot Canadian, went to Los Angeles a year ago to learn the dime store business. That didn’t work out very weU, so he quit, took up little theater work, and now finds himself acting for Paramount. Death brought-him his first role, that of “Corporal UnderhiU” in Cecil B. DeMiUe’s “Northwest Mounted Police.” Earl Askam, a former stage star and war hero, was to have played it, but he died recent­ ly of a heart attack, and young Cameron (whose real name is Rod Cox) was summoned for it. By a grisly coincidence, the role includes a death scene, but he’s so elated over getting the part that he can’t afford to be superstitious. Now that they need passports to saU for a tour of South America, it has been-discovered that many of Toscanini’s NBC Symphony musi­ cians are men without a country. It seems that there was a general impression among them that aU they had to do to become American citizens was to file their intentions of doing so; now they’re not Amer­ icans, and, as they renounced their native lands, they don’t IegaUy be­ long anywhere. George Brent, working in Warner Brothers’ “The Sentence,” offers to put up $10,000 at 10 to I odds that he won’t marry for another three years. “That’s no reflection on Ann,” he says, meaning Ann Sheri­ dan, whom gossips have him wed­ ding soon. “It’s just that I’m going to wind up my picture contract then, and I’m not making any mar­ riage plans until I do.” Miss Sheridan (working in “They Drive by Night,” same studio) is equaUy vehement. ’’George and I haven’t even discussed getting mar­ ried/’ says she. But—it’s the kind of buUdup that so often leads to an elopement, in Hollywood! Qarl Hoff, on the CBS Al Pearce show, drew an impressive crowd the other day and wished he hadn’t. He parked ids new coupe and then tried to get out of it, and couldn’t. He went through assorted acrobatic convulsions, thrusting his feet and arms out of the windows in aU pos­ sible combinations, whUe the crowd offered advice hUariously. The new coupe has patent thief-locks on its doors. Only after he had struggled till he was limp did it occur to Hoff to pass the key to one of the amused bystanders. \ I i‘ . Sm A St ■ A TEA IN THE TIME OF ROSES (See Recipes Below) Household News It’s the custom, in a great many clubs, to draw the season to a grace­ ful close with a charming spring tea. If you’re chairman of the re­ freshment committee for that de- Ughtful social function of your or­ ganization, why net plan to make “In the Time of Roses” the theme song for your tea? Use roses here, there and every­ where . . . a rose-pink damask cloth with rose pattern; rose- sprigged china; a great bowl of real roses for the cen­ terpiece, and can­ died rose petals to decorate the tiny cakes. When you plan the refreshments, aUow at least three sandwiches and two Uttle cakes (or cookies) for each guest, and a pound of mints or salted nuts for each 25 guests. If the tea is a large one, you’ll need two platters of sandwiches, two of cakes and one dish each of mints and nuts, on the table at one time, and make sure that for each platter on the table there’s at least one fuU one in the kitchen to take its place. Choose an interesting variety of dainty sandwiches for your tea. Oblong brown bread sandwiches with cream cheese and marmalade are good, and combine effectively with round white bread sandwiches, with a blend of tuna fish and may­ onnaise between them. Very thin, dainty slices of an unusual bread are exceUent for plain bread and butter sandwiches. An assortment of dark and Ught cookies, and very smaU cakes pro­ vide the sweet touch for your menu. And tea you must have, of course. Tea, when properly made, is one of the most invigorating drinks you can serve. It is most important, especiaUy when making tea for a group, to measure the amount of tea used and to brew it just long enough and not too long in order to insure its best fragrance and tang.

JONAH: THE OUTREACH OF GOD’S LOVE ZaESSON TEXT—Jonah 3:1-10; 4:ipf IL GOLDEN TEXT—Salvation is of the Lord. »Jonah 2:9. “There's a wideness In God's mercy Like the wideness of the sea;There’s a kindness in His Jnsttce Which is more than liberty. "For the love of God is broader Than the measure of man's mind; And the heart of the Eternal Js most wonderfully kind." Such is the message of the book of Jonah. How appropriate it is to close our series of studies on the prophets with this declaration of Gcd’s love and mercy. I. A Second Chance (3:1-3). Jonah had been sent to Nineveh with a message from God, but, secretly wishing in his heart that this great city which was the enemy of Israel should be destroyed rather than repent and receive God’s bless­ ing (see 4:2), Jonah made an at­ tempt to run away from God’s com­ mission. We know how God patient­ ly dealt with him and now gave him a second chance to do His will. How gracious God is “to continue to us . . . the privilege of service even when we seem to have sinned away our first chance, misused our endowments, and have by our very failure embarrassed His plans.” Dr. J. Stuart Holden goes on to point out that only God gives a second chance. Nature does not; man seldom, if ever, gives his fel- ICw who has failed a second oppor­ tunity. But God does. Praise His name! There was also a second chance extended to Nineveh. God was not willing to bring judgment upon the city without another warning. Quot­ ing Dr. Holden again: “I care not what is the history of failure, of shame, of sin which is behind you . . . I care not how close upon your heels are the hounds of accusation and condemnation which bay at you. I tell you that Jesus Christ is here . . . to give you a second chance, and that everything depends upon your attitude of acceptance or re­ jection of His proffered grace and mercy.” H. A SHrring Revival (3:4-10). So great was the city that it would nave taken' Jonah three days to bring his message to the entire pop­ ulation (see v 3). He had only be­ gun when, at the end of the first day, the city, from the ruler down to the humblest inhabitant, was in deep mourning and repentance for its sin. Jonah, the man who had been brought back from a living death as a sign (Luke 11:29-32) to Nineveh that God was gracious to repentant sinners, pointed to the fact that though his message was one of con­ demnation (v. 4), they might expect God to be entreated of them (v. 9). He was (v. 10). God has sent times of revival when whole cities—and even whole nations—have been turned from their sin. Such revivals have been occurring in recent years in various mission fields. Thousands of earnest Christians are praying now that such a revival may come again in our own land. The writer knows where helpful literature along this line is available without cost. Let us pray and be faithful, and trust God to bring revival to the hearts of men. IH A Selfish ReacUon (4:10,11). Jonah, instead of rejoicing in the repentance of Nineveh, showed his narrowness and selfishness by be­ coming angry (see 4:1). How. petty and childish are the attitudes of men when contrasted with the mercy of God. The Lord, dealing gently with Jonah, gave him a place of refuge end a gourd plant to shade him from the sun (4:5, 6). Then, to teach him a lesson, a worm was permitted to kill the gourd (v. 7). When Jonah was greatly concerned over the loss of the plant, God pointed out to him that it is wrong to be stirred up over the passing of material comfort and not to be con­ cerned for the souls of men. How many of those who poured out millions of dollars (and rightly so) for the relief of the harassed people of Finland, would give five cents to win them to Christ? Many Who will give liberally of money, time and effort to the commendable work of flood or famine relief, will not so much as cross the road to talk to a neighbor about Christ. A farmer will sit up all1 night to care for a sick cow, but will he spend an hour or two on Sunday or some evening of the week in an effort to win his neighbor’s boy (or his own boy) to Christ? These are pertinent and serious questions. What is our answer? God will hold us respon­ sible. A Prayer O God, Who hast given to us the knowledge of right and wrong, and hast taught us that it is Thy will that we choose the right throughout our lives, give us grace to be loyal to the right as we see it, and faithful to the highest we know. Amen. EPARTM ENT tive buttons down the bodice in the front. The plain v of the neck­ line invites all sorts of different jewelry and necklaces.

Tbe Republican National Con vention is in session at Philadel phia this week, with thousands of Republicansinattendaniefrom all over the United States. No one knows who will get the presidential nomination. Dewey and Willkie seem to be the two outstanding can didates. ______________ Billions spent in counties were present. A. E. Hend­ rix,.President of the Davie R.E.A., was master of ceremonies. Among I the speakers for the occasion was Prof. R. S. Proitor, bead of the Davie schools. Miss Mary Lokev, home electrification specialist, of Charlotte and a number of others. At the uoon hour a big picnic dinner consisting of ham, fried chicken, pies, cakes, pickles aud manv other good things, were en­ joyed by the large crowd. There were many electrical appliances on exhibition, Mnsic for the cc asion was fur­ nished by the high school band, as­ sisted by members of the Coolee- mee band. Daring the afternoon many prizes were awarded those holding tickets. J. C. Jones was one of the busiest men on the pic­ nic grounds, and was also one of the happiest. It was a day long to be remembered by all who weie iortunate enough to be present. Attend Legion Conven­ tion Monday. A number of Davie count; Legion- aires, together with their families, and the Mocksville high school band, spent Monday’ afternoon at High Point, attending the North Carolina American Legion Convention. The Mocksville band led the Legion pa­ rade. which took place at 5 o’clock Monday afternoon. Thousands were, present from throughout the state. The Convention adjourned yesterday following a three day session. I § !Your Home Comei of dollars have been this country in the past six or seven years lor raking leaves, building play grounds and out­ houses, enlarging parks, building public buildings, etc., so that the unemployed might be put to work. W bat a pity some of these billions wasn't spent in building airplanes, army camps, battleships, tanks and bombing planes. At.last the gov­ ernment has waked up, and it won’t be long until Uncle Sam will have the biggert navy in the world, with plenty of planes, tanks and ammu nition to repel any enemy who might decide that they wanted to swat us. It is indeed a good motto to “prepare for war in time of peace." Vote OnTobacco Quotasj Tbe referendum on flue cured tobacco will be beld some time during tbe month of July.

So why not save yourself those dull headachy days, plus the inevitable trips to the medi­ cine chest, if you can do it by a simple common-sense “ounce of prevention”?

L7LnJ two Kevs to a caon B Y LIDA L ARRIM ORE cO MACRAB SMITH Ca WNU SERVICE THE STOBT THUS FAB Charming, wealthy CabrieQa (Gay tor short) Graham, engaged to T«!d Janeway, re­turns to a cabin In the Maine woods accompanied by a friend, Kate Oliver. The Idea of a stay in the cabin occurred to her when she received a key to it toUow-tog the death of her godfather, Uncle John Lawrence. The two girls notice thatsomeone is living in the cabin. Kate suspects that Gay knows the identity of the mysterious occupant. The mystery man returns. He is John Houghton*, a young doctor whom Gay had known In previous years. Immediately aggressive. Gay asks him by what right he is to the cabin. His right, she hnds, is greater than her own. He, too, possesses a key, but more than that, is heir to It from his Uncle John, Gay's godfather. Gay is high handed with him, and he states courteously that be will leave. Looktog at him to the doorway, her old feelings return. She knows that be is more necessary to her than is Todd Janeway, the man she is to marry. Gay asks John to reconsider his decision to leave. The next morning brings a different feeling, and John decides to remain for his vacation—one more week. The night before Gay and Kate are to return home to New York John gets an urgent request to call a t.a nearby farm. Gay accompanies him while he cares for the patient. Returning to the cabin at a late hour, John stops the car. He teUs Gay that he loves her. and she admits that be is necessary to her happiness. Meanwhile, wor­ried by their absence. Kate has caned Todd Janeway to New York. She knows thatGay and John feel a strong attachment for each other, and wants Todd to cometo Maine where he can talk to Gay. Todd arrives while Kate is alone. She breaks the news to him: Todd, warm hearted and generous, is heartsick but refuses to be­come melodramatic. Gay and John, who have been canoeing, return to the cabin, there to find Todd. CHAPTER TI—Continued Yes, Todd was attractive. He Wore iris well-cut clothes with a non­ chalant air and his manner, even in this difficult situation, was poised, considerate, assured. In compari­ son John seemed a little clumsy, diffident, unsure. What was it in him that aroused a more devastat­ ing emotion than, in all the years of knowing him, she had ever felt for Todd? Her eyes moved along the back of his leather jacket to his crisp dark hair. One lock, blatant­ ly waving, stood erect at the crown of his head. Looking at it her brief resentment melted and in the emo­ tion which swept through her fur­ ther comparison was impossible. John! she called silently, Johnl He turned as though she had spo­ ken his name aloud. His expression softened. His mouth quivered. His thin dark face brightened at what­ ever it was he read in her. eyes. Their long glance asked and an­ swered before he turned again to Todd. “If you’ll excuse me,” he said very courteously, 'TQ go out and get in some wood." “Can I help you?” Todd asked. “No, thank you.” John picked up the wood-basket and went out of the room. Silence followed. Gay tossed her cigarette into the fire. Todd walked to the hearth, stood looking at Gay through the lamplight. Her eyes rested on her hands, clasped tightly in her lap. “It’s pleasant here,” he said, pres­ ently. “Yes, isn’t it?” “Have you rested?” “Oh, yes—” “You look very well." “I’m feeling—” She glanced up at him. “Todd—” she said and was silent. “I know all about it, Gay,” he said steadily. “You love him. You want to be free.” She nodded, then cried softly, “Todd dear, I’m so sorry.” His composure was shaken. An expression of pain darkened his bright hazel eyes. “What is it?” he asked in a low strained voice. “What have I done or not done?” ‘Nothing. Come, sit here,” she said gently. “You look so tired." He sat beside her on the couch. His head dropped back against the cushions. His eyes closed. She took his hand, ran her fingers across the smooth tanned skin, the slender fingers. Presently he opened his eyes. ‘Don’t think I came to interfere,” he said. “Kate called me—was it last night? I feel as though I’d lived a full life-time since then and died and—been buried.” T supposed Kate had. She’S looked so guilty all day. I don’t care, except for you. I—we had in­ tended to leave for home today but there were repairs to be done on the car.” “We?” “Kate and I.” He sat forward. “Then you aren’t—?” “I’m going home. You don’t sup­ pose, do you, that I’d let you face the—cataclysm alone? Besides, a promise is a promise and if you—” “No!” His quick protest brought her to a stop. “God, no! I don’t want you to m arry me from a sense of duty or pity or kindness." He bent forward, his face in his hands. “But Gay, dear, why couldn’t you have—” “Did it—does it mean so much to you?” she asked wonderingly. He sat erect, stared at her as though she were a stranger. “Don’t you know—haven’t you lmown what it’s meant to me?” “But it was all so—casual." “I thought you-wanted it that way. You’ve always ridiculed sentiment. I was glad that you wanted a church wedding. Not that I’ve enjoyed the clatter and fuss. But I wanted you to want all the old enchantments. Something old and something new— Isn’t that the way it goes? And choir-boys and brides-maids and confetti. I wanted us to do all the silly things people used to before romance and sentiment went out of style. I thought that after we were married—” “How little I’ve known you,” she marveled. “And how little I’ve known you. You’ve never spoken of this place, of John. I had no idea that when he came to your debutante party, you, he—Kate told me you didn’t expect him to be here when you came—How long have you known him, Gay?” “Since I was fifteen. Since the summer I spent here with Uncle John.” “Then that’s the answer. I’ve known all along that you weren’t as certain as I was.” “I tried. Forgive me—Oh, what must you think of me?” He took her hands in his, looked at her steadily, very seriously. “I’ve always thought you were the loveli­ est person I’ve ever known. It's the habit of a lifetime. I can’t break it now.” Tears streamed down over her cheeks. She made no attempt to check them. “I want you to know,” she said, “that I feel toward you now, at this moment, just as I’ve always felt. This—this thing that has hap­ pened hasn’t changed it. I love you as my best and my dearest— friend.” “But you love John more?” She nodded. “I’m so sorry,” she cried pityingly. “I’m too fond of you to tell you less than the truth.” He laid her hands gently in her lap, rose, walked to the fire-place, stood with his back to her, lighting a cigarette. When he turned, his face was peaceful. “I like him, you-know.” He smiled wearily through the smoke from the cigarette. “That put me at a dis­ advantage. I can’t offer to knock his head off. I couldn’t anyway. He’s bigger than I am. It’s all right, Gay.” “Is it?” Her voice was wistful. “I’m so fond *of you. I think of rid­ ing our ponies together and Miss Kitty’s dancing class and your first sail-boat and tea-dances and foot­ ball games and skiing and house parties at Princeton.” His smile wavered. “And it doesn’t do any good?” Her eyes fell away from his face, less peaceful now, drawn with fa­ tigue and pain. “It only makes me more certain,” she said scarcely audibly. He drew a long shaken breath. “Well, that’s that.” Glancing up she saw the comers of his lips lift in a difficult smile. “I should say, now, in a husky voice but with a smile, that I’ll always love you, little girl, and if you ever need me or want me—” His voice altered. “I do say it, Gay. I’ve had considerable ex­ perience getting, you out of scrapes. If you ever need me—” “You’re a dear, Todd. I wish—” He flung the cigarette into the fire, went to the couch, dropped down beside her, drew her close in a strong embrace. “Gay, darling, can’t you?” his Ups whispered against her cheek. She put aside his eager arms. Her hands lifted to his face. Her eyes met his, bright, now, with a sort of despairing hope that moved her to pity, gentleness, poignant re­ gret. “Todd. Todd, darling,” she said. “I wish I could.” Gay opened the kitchen door, stepped outside, closed the door cau­ tiously. John’s figure detached it­ self from shadows at the edge of the clearing. She ran to meet him coming to meet her. His arms caught her, lifted her, set her feet on toe ground. “I hoped you would come,” he said, his Ups against her cheek. “I shouldn’t have. Kate heard me, I know, though she pretended to be asleep. And Todd feels so badly. I can’t think of them. I can’t think of anything except being with you.” Her eyes lifted above his shoulder.' “The moon,” she.cried softly, breathlessly. ' “It’s so peaceful.” She sighed. “I can’t imagine being in the city.” “WiU you be?” “I don’t know. Mother and Rob­ ert, my step-father, are stiU in Southampton, I suppose. They’U be moving into the city, though, now that there isn’t to be a wedding. Dad and Aunt Flora may not open the town house this winter. They’re thinking of staying on at ‘Dunedin.’ I want to be where time will pass quickly. I don’t know—” “When you talk of your family—” John paused. “What?” she asked quickly. “You sound—” “I lose you,” he said diffidently. “Here we are so close. When you go away—I can’t even imagine what your life is there. If I could say every hour during the day, now Gay is waiting for the post-man, now she’s playing tennis, now she’s hav­ ing lunch, now she’s walking down town to get a soda at the drug­ store, I would feel closer to you. But I can’t imagine your life. It “How little I’ve known you,” she marveled. wouldn’t be more difficult if you were a Cliinese princess. It’s just— I’ve nothing to go by,” he finished lamely. “You still resent me, don’t you?” she asked. “Not you as you are here with me.” “My life, then. I saw it tonight, when Todd and I talked of mutual acquaintances, of things that were happening in New York.” “But I was afraid—Seeing him here with you—He’s known you al­ ways. You have things in common. And he is attractive. I was jealous and I despised myself for being jeal­ ous.” He gave a short mirthless laugh. “I was—stuffy, wasn’t I?” “You were and it was silly of you.” “I know. I’m sorry and ashamed.” “I can’t discard the years be­ fore now all at once as a snake sheds its skin.” “Of course you can’t. I’m un­ reasonable. But when I’ve nothing to go by—” “I’ll give you something. Every hour of every day we’re apart you can say, Wherever Gay is she’s lov­ ing me and thinking of me and wanting time to pass quickly.” “Sweet!” His voice trembled. “I love you so.” “And I love you. Remember that and nothing can spoil it. Nothingl” CHAPTER TH Gay roused at a touch on her shoulder. She opened her eyes and blinked up into the pleasant placid face of Mathilde, her mother’s mid­ dle-aged maid. For an instant she lay drowsily smiling, not fully awake, , then her eyes widened, she sat erect. “What time is it?” she asked. “Half past seven, Miss Gay,” the woman said, smiling. “You asked to be wakened.” “There’d have been murder done if I hadn’t been.” Gay tossed back the covers and swung herself into a sitting position on toe side of the bed. “It’s snowing.” Mathilde held a blue silk negligee embroidered with daisies, knelt with blue satin mules for Gay’s feet. “Grand! A white Christmas." Gdy drew the negligee around her, wrig­ gled her feet into the mules. “That makes everything practically per­ fect.” “Your bath is ready.” Mathilde smiled at Gay’s excitement. “Will you have a breakfast tray?” “Orange juice and coffee." Gay disappeared into the bathroom. “I won’t have time for anything else.” On the walls of the bathroom wild orchids grew lush among tropical trees. The alcove in which the tub was set was paneled with mirrors. Gay, splashing vigorously, made none of her customary mental ob­ servations upon the results achieved by the young interior decorator who was her mother’s latest- protegee. All of her attention was centered upon the fact, incredible but excit­ ingly true, that John was arriving in New York on this the morning of Christmas Eve, for a holiday visit. “Noel, Noel,” she sang, rubbing herself with a soft warmed toweL or an instant the song recalled the Christmas Eve she’d spent at school in Switzerland. She’d like to go into a Catholic church this evening, at twilight, a French Catholic church, where candle-light would shine on brightly painted figures in the manger scene and a choir-boy with the voice of an angel would sing the carol, running now, through her mind. That symbolized Christ­ mas for her, had as far back as she could remember, before the school in Switzerland, since Made­ moiselle Dupin, the governess of whom she’d been fondest, had taken her, as a child, to her church on succeeding Christmas Eves. Back into the bedroom again. Ma­ thilde had laid out her underthings. “Noel, Noel Noel, Noel—” she sang dealing hurriedly with chif­ fon and silk. She stood before the row of hangers in the wardrobe. “So the keynote is simplicity.” How long ago that seemed! She selected a wool dress the silver gray of a kit­ ten’s fur, the darker gray fur coat, the fur cap to match it which made her look like a Russian princess. As she sat at the dressing-table pin­ ning red-brown curls in at the nape of her neck Mathilde came in with the tray. “Would you like me to ring for Carl?” she asked, placing the tray on a low table beside the windows looking out over the river. “No, I’ll use a taxi.” She didn’t want her first moments with John to be spent under the discreet but interested scrutiny of Carl’s lively blue eyes, behind Carl’s attentive whip-cord back. The servants both here and at "Dunedin” were curi­ ous about John. No wonder, after what they’d heard and seen when she and Kate returned from Maine. Not that she cared, especially, but if it could be avoided— “It’s eight o’clock, Miss Gay,” Mathilde, hovering, said. “It is? Good Heavens! I must fly.” She slipped into the coat Ma­ thilde held, tilted the fur cap over one eye, caught up purse and gloves, paused for an instant to admire her reflection in the mirror and went hurrying out of the room. Lights glowed in the hall of the apartment. Her step-father called to her through the open door of the dining-room. “Good-morning,” she said, stand­ ing poised for flight in the door­ way. “It’s the early bird that catches the worm." Robert Cameron, in a silk dressing gown with a scarf knot­ ted under Ids chin twinkled at her somewhat sleepily over a section of melon. (TO BE CONTINUED) Pollen Carried Seaward By Strong Air Currents Pollen knows no 12-mile limit, ac­ cording to a survey recently com­ pleted in the air above the Atlantio ocean. Traces of pollen were found 275 miles at sea. - The tests showed no pollen above 8.000 feet over land or water. The survey was made by O. C. Durham, chief botanist of the Abbott labora­ tories in North Chicago, in co-opera­ tion with the Pan-American airways. Forty-seven slides were exposed on a specially designed “skyhook" on a 7,000-mile round trip made, by the Yankee Clipper. The slides were exposed every 30 to 60 minutes by J. W. Etchison, engineer of the Clipper, and then carefully packed in containers and returned to Durham. Durham said certain wind conditions might carry ragweed and smut spores as far as 1.000 .miles from shore, although none was found at that distance is the survey.

The Better Way to Correct Constipation One way to treat constipation is to endure it first and “care" it afterward. The other way is to avoid having it by getting at its cause. So why not save yourself those dull headachy days, plus the inevitable trips to the medi­cine chest» if you can do it by a simple common-sense "ounce of prevention”?If your trouble, like that of millions, is due to lack of “bulk” in the diet, “the better way” is to eat KellOgg^s All-Bran.

AW tw o K e v s t o a c a o n B Y LIDA LARRIM OREO MACRAE SMITH CO, WNU SERVICE C THE STOBX THUS FAR Charming, wealthy GahrleDa (Gay Ier Short) Graham, engaged to Todd Janeway. re­turns to a cabin In the Maine woods accompanied by a friend, Kate Oliver. Hie Idea of a stay In the cabin occurred to her when she received a key to tt follow­ing the death o( her godfather. Uncle John Lawrence. The two girls notice thatsomeone is living in the cabin. Kate suspects that Gay knows the identity of the mysterious occupant. The mystery man returns. He Is John Houghton,, a young doctor whom Gay had known in previous years. Immediately aggressive. Gay asks him by what right he Is in the cabin. His right, she finds. Is greater than her own. He, too, possesses a key, but more than that, is heir to it from his Uncle John, Gay's godfather. Gay is high handed with him, and he states courteously that he will leave. Looking at him in the doorway, her old feelings return. She knows that he is more necessary to her than is Todd Janeway, the man she is to marry. Gay asks John to reconsider his decision to leave. The next morning brings a different feeling, and John decides to remain for his vacation—one more week. The night before Gay and Kate are to return home to New York John gets an urgent request to call a t. a nearby farm. Gay accompanies him while he cares for the patient. Returning to the cabin at a late hour, John stops the car. He tells Gay that he loves her. and she admits that he is necessary to her happiness. Meanwhile, wor­ried by their absence, Kate has called Todd Janeway In New York. She knows thatGay and John feel a strong attachment for each other, and wants Todd to cometo Maine where he can talk to Gay. Todd arrives while Kate is alone. She breaks the news to him: Todd, warm hearted and generous, is heartsick but refuses to be­come melodramatic. Gay and John, who have been canoeing, return to the cabin, there to find Todd. CHAPTER VI—Continued Yes, Todd was attractive. He Wore his well-cut clothes with a non­ chalant air and his manner, even in Qiis difficult situation, was poised, considerate, assured. In compari­ son John seemed a little clumsy, diffident, unsure. What was it in him that aroused a more devastat­ ing emotion than, in all the years of knowing him, she had ever felt for Todd? Her eyes moved along the back of his leather jacket to his crisp dark hair. One lock, blatant­ ly waving, stood erect at the crown of his head. Looking at it her brief resentment melted and in the emo­ tion which swept through her fur­ ther comparison was impossible. John! she called silently, Johnl He turned as though she had spo­ ken his name aloud. His expression softened. His mouth quivered. His thin dark face brightened at what­ ever it was he read in her. eyes. Their long glance asked and an­ swered before he turned again to Todd. “If you’ll excuse me,” he said very courteously, 'TH go out and get in some wood.” “Can I help you?” Todd asked. “No, thank you.” John picked up the wood-basket and went out ol the room. Silence followed. Gay tossed her cigarette into the fire. Todd walked to the hearth, stood looking at Gay through the lamplight. Her eyes rested on her hands, clasped tightly in her lap. “It’s pleasant here,” he said, pres­ ently. “Yes, isn’t it?” “Have you rested?” “Oh, yes—” “You look very welL” ‘T m feeling—” She glanced up at him. “Todd—” she said and was silent. “I know all about it, Gay,” he said steadily. “You love him. You want to be free.” She nodded, then cried softly, "Todd dear, I’m so sorry.” His composure was shaken. A n expression of pain darkened his bright hazel eyes. “What is it?” he asked in a low strained voice. “What have I done or not done?” “Nothing. Come, sit here,” she said gently. “You look so tired.” He sat beside her on the couch. His head dropped back against the cushions. His eyes closed. She took his hand, ran her fingers across the smooth tanned skin, the slender fingers. Presently he opened his eyes. “Don’t think I came to interfere,” he said. “Kate called me—was it last night? I feel as though I’d lived a full life-time since then and died and—been buried.” “I supposed Kate had. She’s looked so guilty all day. I don’t care, except for you. I—we had in­ tended to leave for home today but there were repairs to be done on the car.” “We?” “Kate and I.” He sat forward. “Then you aren’t—?” “I’m going home. You don’t sup­ pose, do you, that I’d let you face -the—cataclysm alone? Besides, a promise is a promise and if you—” “No!” His quick protest brought her to a stop. “God, no! I don’t want you to m arry me from a sense of duty or pity or kindness.” He bent forward, his face in his hands. “But Gay, dear, why couldn’t you have—” “Did it—does it mean so much to you?” she asked wonderingly. He sat erect, stared at her as though she were a stranger. “Don't you know—haven’t you known what it's meant to me?” “But it was all so—casual.” “I thought you-wanted it that way. You’ve always ridiculed sentiment. I was glad that you wanted a church wedding. Not that I’ve enjoyed the clatter and fuss. But I wanted you to want all the old enchantments. Something old and something new— Isn’t that the way it goes? And choir-boys and brides-maids and confetti. I wanted us to do all the silly things people used to before romance and sentiment went out of style. I thought that after we were married—” “How little I’ve known you,” she marveled. “And how little I’ve known you. You’ve never spoken of this place, of John. I had no idea that when he came to your debutante party, you, he—Kate told me you didn’t expect him to be here when you came—How long have you known him, Gay?” “Since I was fifteen. Since the summer I spent here with Unde John.” “Then that’s the answer. I’ve known all along that you weren’t as certain as I was.” “I tried. Forgive me—Oh, what must you think of me?” He took her hands in his, looked at her steadily, very seriously. “I’ve always thought you were the loveli­ est person I’ve ever known. It’s the habit of a lifetime. I can’t break it now.” Tears streamed down over her cheeks. She made no attempt to check them. “I want you to know,” she said, “that I feel toward you now, at this moment, just as I’ve always felt. This—this thing that has hap­ pened hasn’t changed it. I love you as my best and my dearest— friend.” “But you love John more?” She nodded. ‘T m so sorry,” she cried pityingly. “I’m too fond of you to teU you less than the truth.” He laid her hands gently in her lap, rose, walked to the fire-place, stood with his back to her, lighting a cigarette. When he turned, his face was peaceful. “I like him, you-know.” He smiled wearily through the smoke from the cigarette. “That put me at a dis­ advantage. I can’t offer to knock his head off. I couldn’t anyway. He’s bigger than I am. It's all right, Gay.” "Is it?” Her voice was wistful. ‘T m so fond’of you. I think of rid­ ing our ponies together and Miss Kitty’s dancing class and your first sail-boat and tea-dances and foot­ ball games and skiing and house parties at Princeton.” His smile wavered. "And it doesn’t do any good?” Her eyes fell away from his face, less peaceful now, drawn with fa­ tigue and pain. “It only makes me more certain,” she said scarcely audibly. He drew a long shaken breath. “Well, that’s that.” Glancing up she saw the comers of his lips lift in a difficult, smile. “I should say, now, in a husky voice but with a smile, that I’ll always love you, little girl, and if you ever need me or want me—” His voice altered. “I do say it, Gay. I’ve had considerable ex­ perience getting .you out of scrapes. If you ever need me—” “You’re a dear, Todd. I wish—” He flung the cigarette into the fire, went to the couch, dropped down beside her, drew her close in a strong embrace. “Gay, darling, can’t you?” his lips whispered against her cheek. She put aside his eager arms. Her hands lifted to his face. Her eyes met his, bright, now, with a sort of despairing hope that moved her to pity, gentleness, poignant re­ gret. “Todd. Todd, darling,” she said. “I wish I could.” Gay opened the kitchen door, stepped outside, closed the door cau­ tiously. John’s figure detached it­ self from shadows at the edge of the clearing. She ran to meet him coming to meet her. His arms caught her, lifted her, set her feet on tiie ground. “I hoped you would come,” he said, his lips against- her cheek. “I shouldn’t have. Kate heard me, I know, though she pretended to be asleep. And Todd feels so badly. I can’t think of them. I can’t think of anything except being with you.” Her eyes lifted above his shoulder.' “The moon,” she.cried softly, breathlessly. ' “It’s so peaceful.” She sighed. “I can’t imagine being in the city.” “Will you be?” “I don’t know. Mother and Rob­ ert, my step-father, are still in Southampton, I suppose. They’ll be moving into the city, though, now that there isn’t to be a wedding. Dad and Aunt Flora may not open the town house this winter. They’re thinking of staying on at ‘Dunedin.’ I want to be where time will pass quickly. I don’t know—” “When you talk of your family—” John paused. “What?” she asked quickly. “You sound—” “I lose you,” he said diffidently. “Here we are so close. When you go away—I can’t even imagine what your life is there. If I could say every hour during the day, now Gay is waiting for the post-man, now she’s playing tennis, now she’s hav­ ing lunch, now she’s walking down town to get a soda at the drug­ store, I would feel closer to you. But I can’t imagine your life. It c . “How little Pve known you,” she marveled. wouldn’t be more difficult if you were a Chinese princess. It’s just— I’ve nothing to go by,” he finished lamely. “You still resent me, don’t you?” she asked. “Not you as you are here with me.” “My life, then. I saw it tonight, when Todd and I talked of mutual acquaintances, of things that were happening in New York.” “But I was afraid—Seeing him here with you—He’s known you al­ ways. You have things in common. And he is attractive. I was jealous and I despised myself for being jeal­ ous.” He gave a short mirthless laugh. “I was—stuffy, wasn’t I?” “You were and it was silly of you.” “I know. Pm sorry and ashamed.” “I can’t discard the years be­ fore now all at once as a snake sheds its skin.” “Of course you can’t. I’m un­ reasonable. But when I’ve nothing to go by—” “PU give you something. Every hour of every day we’re apart you can say, Wherever Gay is she’s lov­ ing me and thinking of me and wanting time to pass quickly.” “Sweet!” His voice trembled. “I love you so.” “And I love you. Remember that and nothing can spoil it. Nothing!” CHAPTER VH Gay roused at a touch on her shoulder. She opened her eyes and blinked up into the pleasant placid face of Mathilde, her mother’s mid- dle-aged maid. For an instant she lay drowsily smiling, not fully awake, then her eyes widened, she sat erect. “What time is it?” she asked. “Half past seven, Miss-Gay,” the woman said, smiling. “You asked to be wakened.” “There’d have been murder done if I hadn’t been.” Gay tossed back the covers and swung herself into a sitting position on the side of Uie bed. “It’s snowing." Mathilde held a blue silk negligee embroidered with daisies, knelt with blue satin mules for Gay’s feet. “Grand! A white Christmas.” G is drew the negligee around her, wrig­ gled her feet into the mules. “That makes everything practically per­ fect." “Your bath is ready.” Mathilde smiled at Gay’s excitement. “Will you have a breakfast tray?” “Orange juice and coffee.” Gay disappeared into the bathroom. “I won’t have time for anything else.” On the walls of the bathroom wild orchids grew lush among tropical trees. The alcove in which the tub was set was paneled witin jnirrors. Gay, splashing vigorously, made none of her customary mental Cb- servations upon the results achieved by the young interior decorator who was her mother’s latest- protegee. AU of her attention was centered upon the fact, incredible but excit­ ingly true, that John was arriving in New York on this the morning of Christmas Eve, for a hoUday visit. “Noel, Noel,” she sang, rubbing herself with a soft warmed towel, or an instant the song recaUed the Christmas Eve she’d spent at school in Switzerland. She’d like to go into a CathoUc church this evening, at twUight, a French CathoUc church, where candle-Ught would shine on brightly painted figures in the manger scene and a choir-boy with the voice of an angel would sing the carol, running now, through her mind. That symbolized Christ­ mas for her, had as far back as she could remember, before the school in Switzerland, since Made- moiseUe Dupin, the governess of whom she’d been fondest, had taken her, as a child, to her church on succeeding Christmas Eves. Back into the bedroom again. Ma- thHde had laid out her underthings. “Noel, Noel Noel, Noel—” she sang dealing hurriedly with chif­ fon and silk. She stood before the row of hangers in the wardrobe. "So the keynote is simpUcity.” How long ago that seemed! She selected a wool dress the silver gray of a kit­ ten’s fur, the darker gray fur coat, the fur cap to match it which made her look like a Russian princess. As she sat at the dressing-table pin­ ning red-brown curls in at the nape of her neck MathUde came in with the tray. “Would you like me to ring for Carl?” she asked, placing the tray on a low table beside the windows looking out over the river. “No, PU use a taxi.” She didn’t want her first moments with John to be spent under the discreet but interested scrutiny of Carl’s lively blue eyes, behind Carl’s attentive whip-cord back. The servants both here and at “Dunedin” were curi­ ous about John. No wonder, after what they’d heard and seen when she and Kate returned from Maine. Not that she cared, especiaUy, but if it could be avoided— "It’s eight o’clock, Miss Gay,' MathUde, hovering, said. “It is? Good Heavens! I must fly.” She slipped into the coat Ma­thilde held, tilted the fur cap over one eye, caught up purse and gloves, paused for an instant to admire her reflection in the mirror and went hurrying out of the room. Lights glowed In the haU of the apartment. Her step-father called to her through the open door of the dining-room. “Good-morning,” she said, stand­ ing poised for flight in the door­ way. “It’s the early bird that catches the worm.” Robert Cameron, in a silk dressing gown with a scarf knot­ ted under his chin twinkled at her somewhat sleepUy over a section of melon. (TO BE CONTINUED) Pollen Carried Seaward By Strong Air Currents PoUen knows no 12-mile limit, ac­ cording to a survey recently tpm- pleted in the air above the Atlaqtio ocean. Traces of poUen were found 275 miles at sea. The tests showed no poUen above 8.000 feet over land or water. The survey was made ty O. C. Durham, chief botanist of the Abbott labora­ tories in North Chicago, in co-opera­ tion with the Pan-American airways. Forty-seven sUdes were exposed cm a specially designed “skyhook” on a 7,000-mile round trip mad* by the Yankee CUpper. The slides were exposed every 30 to 60 minutes by J. W. Etchison, engineer of the CUpper, and then carefully packed in containers and returned to Durham. Durham said certain wind conditions might carry ragweed and smut spores as far ai 1.000 miles from shore, although none was found at that distance St the survey.

E.i Wetherald, general manufacturing manager (right), and1 Arnold Lenz, assistant manufacturing manager, who'i were present in the plant when Uie car was produced. “Chevrolet has built 300,000 cars in less than three months,” Mr. Coyle pointed out. “The 600,000th of these models was built on March,21, the 700,000th.on April 16, the 800,000th on May 13, and the 900,000th on June 12. This production rate closely parallels the Ctmsistenily heavy sales volume since the introduction of the 1940 models last October, sales during March, April and May alone totalling 307,345.” THE HONORABLE UNCLE LANCT By ETHEL HUESTON It was in all kindliness that Aunt Olympia Slopshiro, wife of Senator Alencon Oelaporie Slopshire (properly, but rarely pronounced “ Slupshur") in­ vited her three orphaned Iowa nieces, the wise Helen, the beautiful Adelftl and the joyous Limpy, to live with them In. Washington. But it was not in Aunt Olympia to overlook the glorious political asset which these three debutantes offered in Ezne of dire need. * 0 That's where the trouble started.
