' be done. The chamber of com-
mcrcc will be' ably managed by
the new secretary, Harry Plnnl

tion ample ability, energy and de-
termination. Such an organlza

Swastika lellptt d Irl Mexico
'T'WO things have happened
within a week in Mexico
; Which may bo very Illuminating:
First, the Diarlo de la Guerre, a
newspaper In German which ex
. pounded the axis side of the war,
, has been "temporarily' suspend
ed," and, second, the Colegio Ale
man, most important German
school In Mexico, has closed its
classes.
Both were prolific sources of
German propaganda In Mexico.
In neither case was there any ap
parent pressure from the Mexi
can government. What Is more
likely is that withdrawal of their
business by U. S. firms from Ger
man agencies In Mexico has re
duced the ability of the local Gcr
. man community to supimrt such
activities. It takes money to run
newspapers and schools, and
; much of the money in the hands
. of Germans lit Mexico until re
,'cenlly came from American
- firms for whose products they
' had become agents. The U. S.
' government has recently been
'. discouraging this practice, and

SERIAL STORY
DRAFTED
BY RUTH AYERS
"ANN WILL NEVER KNOW"
CHAPTER U1I
PRIL felt her fingers freeiing
and after awhile she realized!
her feet were numb and toggy wetj
from standing In the snow back
t the garage.
"You have It all wrong, Kent,"!
the whimpered, much as Nip, the
puppy, did when he was hurt.
"No, I think not." Kent's words
chipped like icicles. "You stum
bled on a situation which amused
you and made the most of it."
"Please, you're not being fair."
"Fair?" He gave a short lough
and went on, "You fooled me, of
course. Your voice and Ann's are
alike. You wore her coat. You
hod some diabolical woy of dis
covering where we had our favor
ite outing."
"You'll understand, if you'll let
me explain."
He ignored this and with a
quick, hurtful grip on her arm,
demanded, "Where's Ann?"
"Ann she went away." '
By some miracle, April stopped
short. Ann didn't want. Kent to
know about the audition. It would
be even worse to tell him now that
the great hour with Vivano had
been a failure. Besides, Kent was
opposed to Ann's hoped-for career.
White night, she thought, white lie.
"You see," she was stammering,
"Ann didn't know you were com
ing home. She was on a little
vacation. They're all away,
Mother and Dad and Ann."
"When will Ann be back?"
"Soon oh, very soon." April's
teeth were clicking, her tongue
numb, like the rest of her. "Tell
mo, how when did you know I
was April?"
For one smull word spoken
kindly! For fine second when that
harsh mask on his face lifted!
Then she could speak to him out
of her heart.
'
1UT not Kent. He repeated hei
u words. "When did I know?"
He was speaking as if he relished
hurting her. "I'll soy this for you,
April, you'd moke a grout actress.
I think you've missed a career.
'You've wasted your talents being
Ithe town belle. How is if you
jhoven't heard the call of Broad
way or Hollywood?"
' The red temper under the yel
low hair began to rise In self
defense. "We can skip that," April
said. . .
"Naturally, I'm not proud of the
tilings I said about you," he spoke
gruffly. "I apologize." - - - -
"Oh, think nothing of it." If he
could be brittle, so could she.
"Just hurry on with-tho story of
how you discovered my true
colors."
"If it hadn't been for the shock
of that accident at camp, you
cuulcbi't have fooled me, blind or
not. Maybe my nerves were on
edge; maybe I wasn't clicking,
but looking back. I can see where
I should have known who you
were right from the start. The
Kick you used to get out of the
autc the first night I was home.
The clumsy way you built the firo
on the hill. The crazy speeding
juu did on ihe drive home last
night. It was Aunt Elizabeth Car
ter who gave the final clew. No
. under you didn't want to face
her."
' And what did Aunt Elizabeth
say?" She was fighting to keep
Hie break out of her voice.
Kent snorted and at that min
ute he wasn't unlike his great
aunt. "She said," ho began, "a girl
like Ann Burnett with such a
lircsden doll face and thut head of
yellow curis must love you a great
deal to burn her fingers over a

' April saw the clock on the dash
board. Fifteen minutes to train
time. She pushed her numb foot
.on the gas pedal. It didn't seem
to matter any more whether she
kept up the bravado.
"I sec," she said. "Then your
Aunt Elizabeth hates me, too."
Kent looked away. "No, as a
matter of fact, she admired your
.spirit. But never mind what she
jthinks. I'll be on that train in a
ifew minutes and there's one thing
iyou'11 have to answer to me
labout."
1 "Yes."
! "What possessed you to pre
itend to me that you were Ann?'
I APRIL started the cor. It jolted,
wheels spinning, churning, so
that for a minute it seemed as if
lit would never pull away. Once
isafely moving again, April was so
icold, so near the breaking point,
Ithat she couldn't think clearly.
iThe only thing that was sharp in
Iher mind was Ann's letter. Ann
was coming home to her beloved
Kent.
She said the first tiling that
floated through her brain. "I did
lit because I felt sorry for you."
i The one thing he hated! Pity,
tsympathy.
i But when she tried to stammer
ja further explanation, he cut her
jshort. "Never mind," he said, "I
Ithink we understand each other
perfectly."
The roadster chain-clattered
across the bridge, neared the track
elding and the station. There was
jeomething else. Something impor
tant that had made April see Kent
'tonight. In the daze of fast fall
ing snow, in the nightmare of her
own cold and fevcrishness, she
'tried to grasp it.
"Kent," she begun, "whatever
I've done, I'm sorry."
No, that wasn't it. That wasn't
what she'd meant to say. In the
fog of her thoughts, the name
"Ann" leaped out again.
"It's Ann!" she cried. "Ann!
Promise you'll never tell Ann
that I let you make love to me,
Kent. I couldn't bear for her to
knoiv. I'd die rather than hurt
her. You've got to promise."
Nothing else was of any im
portance. She felt the tiny hat
slipping off her head; she was
sure her hands were frozen stiff to
the steering wheel; but otherwise,
she was lost in the white confetti
shower that danced before her
eyes.
"No, I'll never tell Ann," she
hoard Kent say. "What happened
between us, is overt dead, wiped
out. It's as if it never happened."
"Thank you, Kent. Thank you."
"I love Ann," Kent was saying.
"If I come out of this operation
all right, I'm going lo marry her."
"She loves you, too, Kent." And
now April was crying openly,
bawling like a baby as she was to
remember it afterwards.
"You moan it?" J
"I know it. She's going to be
wailing for you, Kent, prayintr
you'll be ail right. You're good,
oh, you're very good, Kent, to sny
that what happened between us
really never happened at all."
A ND now April's f.-.ce was frozen
with tears and tears .luck on
her lashes, blinding her eyes -is
she wheeled the roadster up to the
station platform.
Wheeled and stopped. Hut not
in time to hold bi'.-l: the terrible
thud against the fender: the slioc-i:-ing,
frightening lurch as the
chain-banded tires struck some
thing struck someone.
Kent was out of the car in a
flash as if second sight came to
aid him in this emergency.
Muffled and faint-sounding, the
7 o'clock express whistled. at tho
bend, hurried on into Pattonsvillo.
