urgent whisper -to-her -mother.
, "Mother, what shall , I call

called her Miss Leila before, but
she's a Mrs. novi" '
"Why not call her. Aunt Leila?

I -think both Lillian and I, spec
tators oi this reunion, were pny
ehically aware of a , certain ten

Not on the part of the bride and
groom, one . could "see' their bub

-The falsetto, with which he had
mimicked Mrs. . Durkee changed
to a deeper tone as he. added:
"if it hadn't been. for my littlo
Sweetheart here I'd have gon
forth into the croo-el world to dlo

of the child's- expressive, humili
ated face when he said that no
body had kissed him. and had
hastened to make amends. Her
face .changed; its, expression so
suddenly that she gave tho effect
of laughing and crying at once,
but . little Mrs. Durkee's laughing
voice fortunately took our atten
tion from her, ,
V'You may kiss me now if you
like. Dicky-bird,' she said, with
her - pretty lips i adorably pouted
toward him. (''I'm so happy now
I don't care! if my complexion
does 'come off."
- Dieky looked at her doubtfully.
then gravely drew a handkerchief
from his pocket; pretended to dust
her face, f then looked at it, and
bent , toward .her..
"I guess It's safe," he said sol

kiss, administered a sound box
on his ear, and retreated toward

I want to show you your rooms."

trooped up the stairs after Leila
and her mother-in-law. Indeed.
we could not have stayed behind
if we had wished, for the Impera

manded our attendance. . And , as
I had hoped a few minutes before
that Mrs. . Durkee wouia sounu

Marion County Ready to
Go Ahead With Bridge
The cost to Marlon county to
ward the construction of the Pa
cific highway bridge over Pud
ding river at Aurora, to be con
structed Jointly by Marion county
and Clackamas county, will be
about .118.000, according to Coun
ty Commissioner J. T. Hunt. As
the Marlon county approach has
already been taken care of ex
penditure of funds will only be
necessary for construction of the
bridge halfway across the river.
Work on 'the proposed project
will begin as soon' as the two
county courts can get together,
Mr. Hunt says. Clackamas coun
ty has been hard pressed for funds
during the past year which has
made it necessary that work be
delayed to some extent.

and The Phez company .was filed
in the circuit court yesterday by
H. 11. . Qralapp, jne of,-the grow
ers and defendants, against whom
a judgment was recently returned
by the. circuit court. .
, In his filings Qralapp .asserts
that the tr rat court maae findings
which were unjustified. He states
that during 1919 he raised 15,701
pounds of loganberries of ., which
2354 were raised -on a,. one-third
acre tract rented from one Benson.
The balance he asserts was raised
on a three-acre tract belonging to
himself and wife, ot which one and
one-half acres was under contract
tor the fruit' union. The amount
due the union, he claims', was
6.674 pounds.
. During 1920 a total of 13.058
pounds was raised, the complaint
states, on the three acres, of which
one and onehalf acres were under
contract to the , fruit , union
amounting to 6,529 pounds. The

More Support From Public
Solicited, by Salvation
Army Workers- "
Tomorrow being, the last day of
the home service campaign of the
Salvation Arn?y in Marion county
and 'the returns not having been
as large as was anticipated it has
been planned to have a .tag day.
There will be girls stationed at
the various' places of business and
railway depots tomorrow and It is
to be hoped that the citizens of
Salem who have not yet. had an
opportunity to respond to this
worthy cause, will respond upon
this occasion for' it' ais a well
known fact that, the Salvation
Army 'can only 'function to the et
tent that it la supported, and it is
not , the desire of the officer in
charge pf-our work. here to cur
tail any of. the work, f .
. As this is 'ithi last day' of the

quested. ,
