She I reached the apartment, climbed the stairs. Huddled in a little heap on the davenport she lay staring across I tho room. Cherry did not weep. She did not even try to think. The ache I In her heart the ache that twisted p and flayed and tortured her was like a physical pain. It was new and so terrifying, t" f The' gray kitten climbed to the davenport, nestled beside Cherry ! and ' waited for ' caresses that did " not come. - Sunshine faded from the patches of sky outside the living ' room window Footsteps sounded on the stairs and then died away. In the apartment overhead a radio orchestra played a brassy torch song." The whole situation was apparent w to Cherry. Oh, yes I She had been blind not to. see lb before. Don's sudden coldness.

Dan came at last. For an Instant he stood silhouetted aigstinst the hall light. Then he touch ed the wall switch and the table lamp j glowed warmly. 1 Dan sold, "Hollo," and dropped his topcoat Into a chair. He went to the kitchen, filled a tumbler with water and drank It. Return ling,, he looked at 'the girl curiously. v "What's -the- matter?"1 he asked. "Don't you Teel well?" -'' f Cherry raised her eyes. "I'm all . right. ' . ' 1 ' 1 hilllps seemed satisfied.

There was silence that was not broken until Cherry spoke. Her voice sounded flat and un natural. Sho said, "Dan,- I waited nonrly an hour " "Waited? It's no later : than the time I usually got hero." "I mean at noon. At the library.! Don't you remember we were to have lunch together?" The young man's face was hidden by the newspaper. '-Sorry," he said. "I forgot. Couldn't have made it anyhow because I was tied up on a story. They're short a couple men again at the office." So he chose to Ho about it I He thought he could deceive her with the usual excuses. Cherry sat - up dttffly, her hand3 clasped, fingers pressing into the flesh. "I I saw you, Danl" she sold. ;The newspaper dropped and Phil lips regarded her curiously. "What are you talking about?" "I saw you at the Wellington. You were having lunch there with Urenda Vail." "Oh, you did!" Their eyes met like swords, pointed and flashing. Cherry could not endure it. She could not face the anger and hostility that burned lr Dan's gaze. He must hate her to look at her that way r '"All ' .rjght," Dan said evenly. "Suppose I was at the Wellington! Supposo I did lunch with Brenda. Is thero anything criminal;, in .that?" yjturry epuitu q hiuuljh;..buh ana1 not heard him. "AH these nights," j she said slowly, "when I thought you were at tlio office special as j slgnments extra work you were with her then, weren't you? You've been seeing her for wecl:s. Why didn't you tell me the tmih? Why UJrtn't you say you didn't 'love me any more? Why did you have to lie" ' Wait a minute!" Phillips Inter rupted. "Yoii haven't' ny reason to complain arid you can't say I lied. I did worV on a (itory today until 1 o'clock. If you wanted to knew whero I've been spending my evenings why didn't you ask? You h-ivcn't seemed much Interested in anything I've done for a' long while." Tears filled the girl's, eyes. She tried to brush them. away. "You Contributes .To Community Welfare Banking is simply a unit operation in business a ser vice link in the financial- activity of every person and every concern. Naturally, there are many details con nected with the handling of incoming and outgoing funds which have made banking seemingly mysterious. This bank, among other members of the Oregon Bank ers Association, is going to use its advertising space each week to describe various purposes' and uses of the bank, feeling quite sure that better acquaintance ship leads to added utlity and to better serviceability. When you realize that there is hardly a person who docs not have some kind of financial transaction each day each transaction being related to the payment or receipt of money you appreciate your close relation . ship to and interest in the bank. NATIONAL lied to me!" she went on choking ly. "You lied today and you've probably done it before. It was our wedding anniversary and I thought we were going to be so hnppy. I had everything planned I You couldn't even romember after you'd promised to meet mer "And I tell you'l didn't lie! You haven't mado things any too agree able around here lately. All your talk about not having any money and how hard you have to work! That's pleasant to listen to, isn't it? Brendo understands " The girl was on her feet, anger flaming in her cheoks. "Don't you dare talk to me about that woman! Don't you dare! She's a horrible, shameless old vampire. That's what sho is a vamplrel Talking about the play you were going to write to gether when all she wanted was to have you making love to her. You know It's true don't try to tell mo it isn't!" "You can't talk that way about Brenda!" "Oh, can't I? Your wife doesn't make any difference but this won derful Brenda I" Cherry's emotion was too m,uch for her. Her words broko off and she turned away. Phillips said coldly, "If you're ready to listen maybe you'll let me get In a word ' or two. I suppose this is all furthct proof that I'm tho world's prize failure. You've said It a . dozen times .before bit wueu. juuj .wy wruu oreuaa van into lt-!" - " ' Cherry whirled about. "I told you not to mention that . name!" she warned. "Can't you stop thinking of her for even a minute? Well, then go to hoi;! I never want to seo your face .again. I wish I'd never married you! I wish I ish I were dead!" Her voice fell on a broken sob ' ' "So you wish you'd never mar ried me! Don't forget it was your idea. I didn't ask you to marry me! Have you forgotten that?" Cherry cried out as though at a blow. "You could saythat!"1 she gasped. "I suppose you never loved me at all? You mado me believe you did. You mode me think you wanted to marry me oh, I wish you'd go away I I vlsh you'd leave me alone I" BANK ASSOCIATION She sank to the davenport and burled her head In the oushlons. Cherry was weeping uucon t rolled -ly now. Her nhouldcrs rose and sank with great shaking sobs. For a moment Phillips stood look-j Ing down at her. Then he crossed I the room, picked up his coat and hat. An Instant later the hall door opened) and shut. i Cherry did not know bow ,long, she lay there. She knew Dan had gone but sho did not stir. Gradually her sobbing became more quiet and then stopped altogether. She got to her feet, crossed the room and fumbled mechanically in a bureau drawer for a fresh handkerchief. Her -eyes were swollen and red. Cherry -caught a gllmpso of herself In the mirror and was shocked for an Instant because she did not recognize herself. Upstairs tho radio was still turned on and a man was singing. 4A crooner whoso weekly salary was j fabulous. The' song was a popular , one and Cherry had heard it often before. The words were appropriate: ' "After I was sold on all tho tales you told Didn't you let your kisses, turn from, hot to cold? Was that the human th.ng.r" The song ended on a dissonant note. Perhaps the owner of the ra dio disliked the ballad or perhaps he was only leaving the apartment to go to a belated dinner; At any rate the radio was silenced. It was curious how that silenco affected the working of , Cherry's mind. She was still dazed by the Daily Cross ACROSS 1. Away 4. Asiatic palm 9. Word of con sent 12. French coin 13.

We've made you stand too long. "You see. your candy wan so good wo tried to eat all that wo could. Wo're sorry that we kept you here. You don't look very strong." "Oh, don't mind him," 'the zoo man cried, as he ran to the small beast's side. "Tnat fall down Is a signal that bis candy Is all gone. "The last piece always makes him drop.

Why don't you Tlnies also sleep? I'll watch o'er all of you. "I am not tired, so don't you fret. A good night's rest you all can get." The.Tlnymltes agreed It was a real jraarl thing to do.

Tho words shaped themselves In her consciousness. She said them, over to herself and yet they meant nothing. Dan was gone. He wasn't coming back again. He dldu't love her hod never loved her. Cherry began to move about the room nervously. She picked up the newspaper Dan had thrown aside, folded It and placed It on tlio table. Sho straightened tho cushions on tho couch. "But I can't stay hero." she told hersolf suddenly. "I've got to do something go away. I've got to make plans!" All at once sho was consumed with feverish onergy. Sho pulled on her hat and coat, caught up gloves. Then she was hurrying, al most running down the stairs. "Telephone," was the word that repeated itself in Cherry's mind. Yes, site must find a telephone. Thero was one on the table in tho entrance hall but she swept past It. Out in tho night the. cold wind struck her face and blew her coat back. She bent against tho wind, walking rapidly. It was almost an hour later that .Cherry stood in the telephone booth of a corner drug store. She gave a number,, waited for the answering voice. It came at last, "Max!" tho girl cried eogorly. "I've got to see you." (TO BE CONTINUED) - Word Puzzle 8. Obstinato ani mal 9. Period of tirao 10. O rent iJiko 11. Largo room tn a Spanish house 16.

The zoo man said, "My, how you stuff! Now, If you're through, lads, come with me. I own a big fiatcar. If you all wish to ride on It. there's room enough for all to sit. I'll hitch some little wild beasts up and they will pull you far." The fiatcar was a sight to seo. Said Coppy, "This appeals to me!" "All right," replied the zoo man. "Hop aboard, you Tinymites." And then he hitched strange beasts up tight and everything seemed quite all right. The happy lads were shortly on their way to see new sights. (Copyright, 1932. NBA Service, Inc.)
