1 ta ,1; V V " ; 4' PAGE EIGHT IThe OREGON STATESMAN. Salem. Oregon, . Morning, September 1929 Blue BlooddRed by ROBERT TERRY SHANNON ' He foand himself sitting on the edge of. his bed and rubbing his head as though he had just awak ened from the wanderings of . somnambulist. He noticed his new -suit of clothes hanging over a chair. . - When he ' left he would hare Very few things to take with him. Slowly, scarcely comprehend-!- the significance of his move ment, be went through the acti - T. y ol br thing and dressing him self afresh. The cards had -, fallen against - him and he was at the end of Mm rope. Somehow, despite his best . efforts, he had come ,.lnto the final stretch of a race, and he was the loser. The future, where he would go ana wnai ne wouia ao, seemed of no concern to him at all. Sown enough he would find out all about that. Whatever it was to be, wouldn't matter. Noth ing mattered. y He beard the telephone ringing downstairs and he could con- ', celve of no reason why be should " ' answer it. What could anyone say that was of the slightest import ance? The thing could ring till the bells fell off it If it wanted to. Slowly, with Infinite care, be se lected a necktie without having ,any real choice in the matter. Trivial things like neckties, after all. -were the only things that con Id concern him. He heard Tobe's voice below callinr him to the telephone. . "Tell 'em I'm not home." he called down listlessly. The old negro came half way up the stairs. "It's Miss Marian on de wire, snn." jCHAPTER XLIX It was a new lease on life the welcome, thrilling sound of Mar ian's TOlce on the wire. However hopeless the futurenothing could take away from Eddie these iso lated moments of joy. Out of a universe dull with unhappineas he , drank in the vital elixir of her personality; diluted in distance, but potent enough to lend bis heart beating faster. Even though the dear voice ! came to him nervous and disturb ed, he imagined It carried some bidden tenderness. "Father Just came home about ' his conversation with you. He knew that she was aware of her father's ban upon him. Doubtless, Mr. Thorndike had warned her, too. to have nothing further to do with him. It gave him a throbbing satisfaction to know" that Marian, even so, cared , enough to call "him up In defiance of the edict that separated them. "Did he tell you everything?" "Yes. I'm so sorry It's ter rible." , Their conversation, he realized, must necessarily be guarded, be cause of the party line telephone system. There was no telling Jiow many listening ears might be on the wire but perhaps he might express himself so as to render anything overheard quite harm-? less. There was the chalice that nd one was over hearing them, but the possibility stifled expression. The things that Eddie and Mar Ian had to say were too poignant ly Intimate to be spoken for other people, perchance, to hear. Yet, there was so much that had to be aid 'Tm leaving-" he told her, re luctantly. vfTm called away on NEGLECT OFTEN THE CAUSE OF DEFORMITY Many Persons Hayc Bcen Crippled from Causes Which Are Preventable, Says Dr. Copeland, Citing the Danger of Neglecting Arthritis.

"Do you mind If I rrlte you from wherever I'm going?" He could feel the strain of her silence bef ore-she answered him. Her words seemed to tremble. , -Yes. write.' "I won't be able to see you be fore I go?" "I'm afraid not." "I suppose this is goodbye?" Her voice was faint. "Yes." "Goodbye, then." "Goodbye ..." He held the receiver to his ear, still waiting for the click, that would tell when the connection was broken. With each possible fragment of a second he .wanted to prolong this most fragile of all bonds between them. The seconds stretched out and repeated themselves, but there was no sound of a receiver going up at the other end. "Are you still there?" he asked, hungrily. "Yes..." The silence hung between them with painful intensity. What more could they say what more could they do? Yet, neither had the power to break the connection. After a time, Eddie spoke softly, almost a whisper. "It's brutal to part this way." After a protracted spell Marian whispered: . "Yes." A daring hope, scarcely ac knowledged, stirred within him. "Would a could we see each other". He waited, tense' with uncer tainty, for her to answer while the great old clock in the hall ticked in silence. When she spoke her voice was muffled but hasty with ojuick de cision. "Down where our lane runs into the main road ... in an hour . ." No hesitancy now in hanging up the receiver a swirl at his heart spread through his whole being with an agonizing rush. Nothing mattered now . .he was going to see her . . everything else in life was uncertain, but this glorious fact revolved around him and through him with the sensa tion of music and color alike. In the face of defeat he had been able to snatch one beautiful banner from the grasp of misfor tune. . was able to wave it defiant ly aloft ... He stepped out on the veranda and filled his lungs with the warm perfume of the night. In the east, a little to the north, a great orange disc that was the moon lifted Its are above,the dark line of pines. There 'fluttered through him ail of the strange, be wildering glamour of youth, and love, of sorrow and hope, till the blood in bis veins ran golden and 1 his brain trembled with excite ment. In his buggy he drove as far as Locust Grove and hitched his horse behind a screen of trees; then on he went afoot. His idea of time was highly Inaccurate and he was, at least. 30 minutes too soon. Even so, It was after t o'clock. Now, or presently, Marian's physieSaa and Vxm Iodine appaea u Um base. ' ' 1 Tou might try applying equal parte ef lemoa Juice and peroxide. A. D. R. Q.

Her bouse stood an eighth of a mile back from the road and he could see one dim light that sig nified, perhaps, her room. Maybe she had told-them she was going to bed early and the light was burning as a beacon to bis hopes. In any case, be knew she would slip away to meet him. So secure was he in this thought that he suffered not at all from Impatience. Nothing on earth n o t h 1 n g eould prevent Marian from meet ing him . . . " As Eddie waited in the moon light for Marian, a buoyancy grew upon him and everything In his world seemed to be floating and swimming in a delicious, gold feeling of life. The truth was, his state was no more abnormal than the universal delicious madness that afflicts all young men In love. Yet, as he sat down upon a log opposite her gate, it seemed to him he was reclining upon some incredibly luxurious royal couch; the whole world swept out before him like a gorgeous roll of tapes try for his approval the convic tion was borne upon him that he occupied a sweet and exalted do minion over all his fellow men. So delleiously prevailing was this sense of power that he forgot his black despair and truly con sidered himself the luckiest young man on earth. He alone was waiting for Mar Ian. She had chosen him for this se cret tryst out of the unnumbered multitudes that swarmed the face of the earth. Hia-eyes were bright, his mouth was dry, but he was omnipotent In his powers. Had he chosen, his voice could have duplicated the golden tones of Caruso; no expression of art POLLY AND HER PALS IFOC HEASEKJ'S 4SH,TEUL 1 ATPkTriH?eS IhJ THE HOLLOW WALLS Or gRySlONb'- TILLIE, THE TOILER VUAS "THE BOS 6P THE VUAy WE HANDLEO THE BOSIUSSS WHILE HE.

If called upon he could have disposed of a De.mp aey or a Tunney with nonchalant ease. - ' - ' For once In his life perhaps the last time Eddie Regan sur ged with the madness of the gods and bis head reeled with their ambrosia. Even when he saw Marian's form, a flitting bit of white, steal ing toward him down the moon light lane, he was not, at once, brought back to reality. He rose and waited for her and the dusty road beneath' bis feet was sheer velvet Not until she was close upon him and he saw her face, pale and strained, did the spell break. Then, in a blinding flash, real ity smote him, and he shuddered with the unhappiness over the tragedy that was, actually, his portion. This was their last time to gether. (To be continued tomorrow.)

They were on a queer adven ture. The shadow-children had met Tom, and Huck leaving the inside of a tall, red-covered book entitled "Huckleberry Finn," The two boys were seeking the pirate captain Long John Silver, who lived In a book called "Treasure Island. This they found at the end of the row of books on the shelves in the library. Hoping that John Silver would make pirates of them, Tom- and Huck quickie crawled Into the book. Knarf, Mij and Flor wanted to be pirates, too, so they followed them, while Han id and Yam, the girl-shadows, not caring to remain alone, went In last of all. "Are there any pirates here?" Knarf repeated loudly, peering along the margin of the page. There was no answer. "They must all be out pirating," Tom Sawyer said. "You can't find any pirates on thii page," Hanld said. "Why not?" "Because this Is the Title Page. Pirates never bother staying there They're always in the middle of the story. As there was no doubt that she was right, the others reluctantly left the Title Page. No sooner did they do so than they heard a clat tering of knives and forks and dishes and a hubbub of voices. It sounded as though dinner was be ing eaten somewhere nearby. "Have another plate of turtle soup. Captain Silver," a voice said. "No pan me half-a-dozen her rings instead," replied a booming voice. Tom and Huck and the shadow boys gazed at each other in de light "It's John Silver and his pirate -crew!" they whispered. "Let's find out where they are!" "They're right in here." Hanid said, pointing to the next page. , "They're having their dinner," Yam added. The boys were more and more excited. "Let's go In right away!" they cried. Now the question arose as to which was the best way to go in from the top or the bottom. Hanid smiled slyly. "Generally," sue said, "people drop in for dinner.

John Silver and a crew of fierce-looking pirates seated around the Table of Contents, de vouring their dinner. The Pirates Drew Their Cutlasses. "When I shout three," Tom Sawyer said, "let's all drop in at once. One, two, three !" Down they went The next in stant they landed in the middle of the table. .Uttering a shout of amazement, John Silver and his pirates sprang back, overturning chairs and scattering plates, knives, forks and the fish they were about to eat. "We want to be pirates!" Knarf announced calmly. Instead of be ing delighted, the hungry pirates drew their cutlasses, which are long, sharp swords, and rushed at them. "We'll make pirates out of you all right, all right!" they roared. The would-be pirates did not wait. They leaped off the ta ble and darting from sentence to sentence, finally escaped with whole skins from the page. "Are you pirates, yet?" Hanid and Yam asked slyly as they pass ed. But they received only a growl for answer. And that was impolite enough really to have come from pirates!

Pf MuPr The Home Kitchen Bj ALICE LYNN BARRY Shrimp As Cocktail or Mata Dish Tempt Dull Appetite Shrimp can be served as almost any point in a dinner. Chilled, it's an appetizing cocktail - to begin with. Or. it may be a hot canape or entree; or combined with rice and vegetables as a main dish or served cold as a salad. Shrimps are obtainable In most city markets fresh for a good part of the year, but at all times they cajL be purchased in tins or jars. Canned shrimps should be washed in cold water and allowed to stand for a few moments after removal from the can. To prepare fresh shrimps, throw them in a kettle containing several quarts of water to which 3 tablespoons of salt have been added. Let them simmer over a slow fire for 20 minutes. (The shrimp, greyish white when fresh, turn pink almost immedi ately after hitting the boiling wat er.) After 20 minutes dump into a colander and let cold water run through them. Then the shell slips off easily, and the shrimp should be put in a cold place until ready to serve. Shrimp Cocktail 2 tablespoons ketchup 2 tables chopped pickles or rel ish. 2 teaspoons lemon juice. 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. H teaspoon salt. Mix these ingredients and keep well chilled. Cocktail glasses should also be kept chilled. Ju3t before serving, place a few shrimps in the glass, add a spoon ful of this sauce and mix well. Shrimp Canape or Entree 1 pound shrimps 2 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons flour 2 cups milk 1 canned pimiento Vi teaspoon salt V teaspoon curry The shrimps should first be cooked and chilled. Melt the but ter, add flour and milk, stirring constantly until smooth. Then add the diced pimiento and sea HOfeN I'M mo PUTA SOOO 7 MIFT HE WITH THE VUl VAT Sgi HY. THAT WITH VooB- HAifa.

About five minutes before serv ing time put a tablespoon of the mixture on rounds of bread that have first been toasted on one side. Put. under. the broiler to brown. Baked Shrimps 1 pound. cooked shrimps 2 cups srained tomato juice 1 cup dried breadcrumbs 2 eups cooked rice 1 small onion, chopped fine 2 tablespoons chopped parsley teaspoon salt Cutter a baking dish and put in the shrimps and dry cooked rice mixed together, then bread crumbs, onion, tomato, juice and seasoning and bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes. Although pepper is frequently used with shrimps, it is too sharp a seasoning for this delicately fla vored food. Curry supplies the lit tle pep- needed and seems to blend better. Shrimp Salad 1 pound cooked shrimp 1 cup diced raw celery 1 cup mayonnaise 1 teaspoon lemon"" juice Mix shrimp and rtlery togeth er, add lemon juice, and last the mayonnaise. Place in icebox to chill. Endive, If available, la espe cially good served with shrimp in stead of ordinary lettuce. 'Be sure to cook the fresh shrimp adequately. Twenty minutes is us ually sufficient, but if they are the very large variety they may take a little longer. Test for ten derness at the end of 15 minutes and you can thfn judge how much more cooking is required. One of the reasons why people sometimes find shrimps "undigestible" is that they are undercooked and tough. MAN FOUXD DEAD LA GRANDE, Ore.. Sept.
