ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW. ROSEBURG. OREGON. FRDAY, JUNE 1 3. 1930. FIVE 4 'WHERE'S EMILY?' If by Carolyn Wells 1 CHAPTER XXVII. - "It is" plain on the face of it" said Lai Singh. "Miss Duane is a creature of whlmaeys, of ephemer-l al likes and dislikes. She is tired! of the not too amusing Kodney. and has merely stepped out of it all." "Will she step back again?" "Assuredly. After the day fixed for the wedding is passed." j "Ob, Swanil. I am so glad to hear tbls. Where has she gone?" Nell's earnest eyes precluded all thought of insincerity, and the other replied: "To the home of some friend who will care for her until after the wedding day." "It's a mean trick," said Nell, thoughtfully. "Aye, but Miss Duane Is not thoughtful of the feelings or wishes of others." "Be careful,", said Nell, suddenly loyal, "she's my friend." "Of coursr. She is 'also my friend. She Is also friend of the good Mr. Sayre. but she does not want to marry him. Bhe does not want to marry 'anybody. The grande paBslon has not yet come to her." "Oh, my lord! Do you think that? I thought she was crazy over Rod." "No, that is your role." Nell turned an angry face to his. 1 The long almond-shaped eyes were gazing at ber with an amused gleam. He was only teasing her and as a matter of fact she was not displeased about it. "Do I, then, wear my heart on my sleeve?" "To me many people wear their hearts on their sleeves. And if your friend Emily never returns, you will proceed to set your cap, I believe Is the phrase for the grandiloquent Sayre." The impudence of the man was unbelievable, yet he made his speeches with no twinkle of the eye, with no suggestion of a smile on his lips, with no light Inflection In his soft, deep voice. "You'ro perfectly horrid! I shall never speak to you again!" she cried, goaded at last to anger. "No? I think, yes. You are fas cinated by me. Not in love with me we are of different races but you love to be with me, to hear me talk, to watch my countenance. Deny It Nell." He was only playing with her emotions as he might idly finger a lute. His attitude was calm and distant, his face rather benign, but hiB dark eyes blazed with a half hidden fire that was meant to ma its own appeal. And Nell Harding, only nineteen, had never before had an experi ence like this, and she lapped it up rr a cat laDs cream. Nor was she caught napping Mbst of her years had been spent In the last two decades, and they have been of educational Interest to young people. "Yes oh, yes, my Swami, you are right I do love to hear your voice, to watch the play of your expression tell me more, but not about Emily. Tell me about my self myself and you." Nell's voice dropped to a soft whisper, and Bhe moved a trifle nearer to the white-robed figure. The Hindu began to feel a bll uncomfortable. The Hllldale ladies had hung on his words, they had , worshiped at his shrine, but they f hadn't struck just this note of intimacy. He read Nell well enough to know she meant nothing, but he couldn't tell just how far these meaningless nothings might go. Anyway, ho concluded he'd bet ter snap oat of it, and he rose, say ing it was time for him to keep an appointment. - I'll go with you." Nell said. jumping up. "Let me go with you. and sit by you on the platfonn. I ll be your what do you call 11! Your control? Your aura? "Don't talk nonsense," he said. almost sharply, and she stopped. He went away without rejoining the group on the terrace to say good-bye. In the conventions he was a law unto himself. "I handed him one," said Nell, as she fell Into a lounging chair. "He bullied me and I Beared him. Now, we're even. But, look -here He says Emily jes' natcbelly los her tas'e for Rodney, and she's gone into retirement until after the wedding day, and then she 11 emerge. Sayre was not present, or even careless Nell wouldn't have said this. "Well, that's rubbish," Lamb de clared. He had been .greatly taken with Nell when they first came, but ev ery day had lessened his regard for her. , "I can't help that. It's what he said." "Then the fact that he said it bars it from further consideration." Everybody was getting-a little Irritable, The strain of worry and fear was growing on them. The excitement of the tragedy, thrilling at first, was settling down to a depressing state of enforced Idle neBB. The theories had all been dis cussed, the possibilities all talked over, the conditions deplored, until now, everything that was said. had been said before. All waited and hoped for some new development. Aunt Judy saw this and (lung herself into the breach. "Look here, Nell and Betty," she said, "Emily is away, but we've no real reason to thfhlt harm has come to her. We hope she's safe and sound wherever she may be And Bhe may blow in any minute. Now. you do something to amuse yourselves. Get up a little dance for this evening. There s no im propriety in J.hat. Poor Polly's death doesn't touch us so very "lopely; she wasn't related, you know. I don't want you young sters moping about, and nobody would think of Inviting you, lest we feel hurt." "Go-:d for you. Aunt Judy," Pete said. 'You've the best notions of keping up the morale of a crowd I ever heard of. Come on, girls, I'll help you with the list. Let's keep It small." They all saw the common sense of the thing. - Of course, left to themselves,) Aunt Judy and Rod would never have thought of such a thing, but these young guests ought to be entertained, and Aunt Judy saw It clearly. (To Be Continued Tomorrow) Copyright 1930. King Features Syndicate, Inc. - OUTLINED III TALK IT buying large quantities for lmme-j diate delivery, making It necessary for the canneries to carry their goods longer than was previously the case. The cannery, Mr. Norton states, Is to be kept in operation It at all possible. It will probably be neces sary to oall upon local business men to aid in carrying the plant for a time, but it is hoped to be able to go ahead to successful business. despite the handicaps of present conditions. An interesting talk on the can nery situation was presented be fore the chamber of commerce .ui'uui luncheon yesterday noon by Pnnk Norton, manager of the lo cal plant. The cannery, Mr. Norton said, was Btarted in 1926 and since that time has issued only $-1,000 In j took. The cannery has largely jeen a one-man business since that time, be stated. As long as business was good, Mr. Norton said, the plant has been able to ihow profits. In 1928 the profit was $8,000, In 1927 ?1 1,000, and in 1929 122,000. The monev earned on each sea son's operations, Mr. Norton said. was invested in machinery, equip ment, and buildings, so that there was no reserve created, except the squity in the plant. Last year's business at the out set of the season gave all indica tions of being the largest the. com pany had known. An anticipated profit of $44,000 was calculated, ind the plant packed more than double its UBual volume of prod acts. The stock market crash, how ever, cut oft all profits and left .he business 'in a . very serious itate. Business, Mr. Norton said, is now on the mend. There is still a sur plus in many lines and prices are low, but indications are that there will be advances in some lines. Conditions, however, are unset tled, particularly with regard to contract purchases. Last year, he stated, the cannery output was sold up to 75 per cent In advance, but due to the market slump there was an unprecedented number of can cellations. In many of these cases the contracts could have been en forced, by litigation, but the cost would more than offset the gain. Under these conditions the can nery is facing a shortage of funds ind Is unable to meet many of the obligations of last year, Mr. Nor ton said. The growers, recognizing the value and need for a cannery have shown a willingness to co operate by accepting 3-year notes for 60 per cent of their claims, and common stock in the cannery tor the balance. A plan is also being advanced to put the cannery on a cooperative basis, which will result in a much better arrangement for the future, as federal money can be secured at much lower interest rates and for longer periods than now possible. This is of great advantage, due to changes in buying methods as a result of chain store operations.
