fj N' a letter to tills newspaper print-

an intereuting slant on the pres-'-wtt

brought out. The forre.snomb nt

J clean organization and really
worthy of support.
This Is a new idea and hence
worthy of disciiHsinn here. Who
''are the men referred to? Jay Ilow
vernian, long-time more or less pro
fessional politician; Uriice Dennis
of Klamath Kalis, rtufiis Holmnn or

At the time the well was drilled

IN GOVERNOR'S RACE
ROREBUHG, Ore., Sept. 30. Edi
tor jN'ows-Review. I have been told
by sOme of the supporters of the
'Meier campaign for governor that
they nre going to vote for Meier
as a protest against the running of
the state by tiie "old guard."
It seems to me tbat prior to
Meter's entrance Into the race as
an independent, this might have
been a reasonable criticism. There
were a number of undesirable ele
ments In the republican party but
apparently .Meier has succeeded In
gathering most of them around
hint. Jay Dowerman, Fred lirady.
Rruco Dennis, Fred Gilford, Itu
fus Holman and several lt oth
ers tu tho Meier camp wore
the sort of men who were
bringing the republican party into
disrepute. They are all with Meier
now and the republican party hav
ing been thus cleansed of them Is
much Improved.
If people prefer Ihe Meier crowd
to either of the two political parties
(hat Is their privilege, of course,
but It seems lo tne thut it Is pre
ferable to vote with responsible
narty organizations than to give
support lo a crowd of greedy and
self seeking politicians.

On a cruise with her mother,
Judith Archer, young school teach
er. Is attracted to Kit Camp, the
sihp' radio operator. Though pret
ty, Judy's charm Li bidden by her
eye-glasses and conservative style
of dress. Visiting the Public Gar
dens at Halifax, Judy bears shots
as a scar-faced man dashes out of
the shrubbery, followed by a dark,
handsome man. Later, on board
ship, Judy falls and breaks her
glasses. Feeling a steadying hand
on her arm, she gazes into the
laughing eyes of the handsome
stranger at Public Gardens. He is
Tristram Millet. Judy and Tria
meet Kit, who gives Judy a pierc
ing look. Tris tells Judy she is
oeiutiful. As Tris denies know
ledge of the Public Gardens quar
rel, tbe scar-faced man peers in
the window. Tris tells Judy it is
her Imagination. Next morning,
Judy sees Kit with a girl and is
jealous. Later, he tells Judy he
had been waiting for her.
CHAPTER XVr.
"Indeed! I'll have you know I'm
no sleepy-head, Mr. Kit Camp. I
saw the sunrise a corner of it j
from my cabin, it being a free
show and all." She was thinking
of the amused way he bent down
to listen when Evelyn Cary flutter
ed her lashes. Did he think-her full
of tricks as weel eager to parade
them for him? Highhanded well
he'd soon see he wasn't dealing
with an Evelyn Cary.
"So. unless yon've got any
brand-new si. Hits; Mr. Camp, I'll
just be making myself comfortable
with a book or such, the same
being Interesting as well as en
tertaining, and easily shut up
should it become a bore." She
tossed him a smile, saw the green
eyes darken, shimmer with a hid
den light. Very boyish, heart-shak-Insly
winsome he looked as he
stood there muffled to the ears
In a white wool sweater, rakish
little beret drawn over his fore
head, even teeth flashing in a
slow grin.
"But there are new sights. Miss
Spitfire HI mad? Ah a great
compliment, really talk of this
later, Judy ; there is something
you must see switched with Doyle
so I could show you. Put this on,
it's windy where we're going."
He was all haste and energy,
pulling at the orange scarf, thrust
ing a beret like the one he wore
into her hands, sweeping her be
fore him to the sun deck.
"Much chance you'd give me to
say No,' " she murmured half
angrily, as she tried to catch the
beret around her hair. It was too
small, and in a panic of impa
tience because of his urging she
drew the pins from the knot at
her neck, let the dark, heavy
waves cascade about her should
ers before twisting up the ends so
she might" put the cap on like a
net.
Kit Camp seemed in no hurry
to go on now. loitering with his
gaze dreamy, little restless move
ments at the corner of his lips.
"Wind blowing your hair that
way you're lovely, Judy. Like a
picure beautiful "
Big, awkward fellow, jerking it
out in a mumble, red flaming up
in his face, looking so astonished.
Emotion poured through Judy,
hammered at her temples, stung
lier eyes. An outrage that he could
make her feel so that anything
this big boy could say would make
her want to cry. Detestable oh,
for heaven's sake
"Beauty!" she flung out in bit
ter irritation. "That's what men
think about ! Women's looks not
brain just beauty."
"Men DO think," he grinned.
"Credit men with that. They often
THINK, Miss Snapping Turtle."
In a white rage she whirled oh
Mm. pounded his chest with her
fists. "Don't you call me that!
Don't you dare! Don't speak to
me again you hear? Not ever
not ever again!"
Kit Camp locked his finsers
about her wrists, held so she could
not move, put his calm face close
to hers. "Any time I wish I shall
speak to you, Judy, my dear. Any
time I wishand you will listen!
Get that. Judy? You will listen!"
They faced each other, white
and tense, and Judy's eyes were
pools of light flaming at him.

he put his head down, laid his

It was as if they existed on a
tiny island in a universe compos

sea and overhanging gray sky.
Lying flat with robes pulled up to
her eyes. Judy drew long, exhil
arating breaths, felt her anger
melt, absorbed in the sparkle
which seemed to fill the world.
"You're smiling? Hight-o! I'm
forgiven, then." From his own
roll of blankets Kit Camp sent her
a grin, put out a hand.
"A lot you want to' be forgiven

"You admit tricks and deceit!"
Hl3 lips were laughing but his eyes
were deep shadowed and deep.
"Hard on women, too, Judy." He
drew the tip of his finder along
