'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

appointment. -

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.

as she fell Into a lounging chair.
"He bullied me and I Beared him.

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

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

said. 'You've the best notions of

They all saw the common sense
of the thing. - Of course, left to

would never have thought of such
a thing, but these young guests
ought to be entertained, and Aunt
Judy saw It clearly.

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,

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.
Brokers instead of buying In ad
vance as 'formerly, are now usually

PORTLAND, June 18. The Mo-
