outdoing high price records
of the last 10 years, corn became
the grain trade's star performer
today, and soared 3 H cents a bu
SheL Largely because of bouyancy of
corn values, wheat rallied from
earlier price setbacks, and in some
cases finished with material net
sains. Corn reacted a little just
before business ended for tbe day.
At the close, tbe corn market
was ?4-24 cents a bushel higher
than 24 hours previous. May

Buying of corn futures today
was the most general witnessed
in a long while, and purchases
for immediate shipment from'bere
were the largest in more than two
years.
Giring impetus to the upward
weep of the corn market was
n official forecast of higher
prices on hogs and cattle this
summer.
Wheat and rye during much of
the day were dominated by profit

buyers.

"Leisure to Repent"
by URSULA
PARROTT
SYNOPSIS .. .
Gilbert Windon had been in love
with lovely Denise Rendale from
the moment he met her but she had
eyes for no one except Keith
Sheldie, handsome young playboy.
However, Keith and Denise break
up when the irresponsible Keith
does not offer to marry Denise
upon learning of her father's finan
cial ruin. Keith frankly explained
that he was solely dependent upon
his wealthy father, and to marry
meant being disinherited. Denise's
sister, Felicia, suggests that she
marry "money immediately as Fe
licia herself had done. The latter
loved the late Duane Fenton but
married the unexciting, though
reliable. Eustace Gardiner Dayne
when Duane failed her. When Oil
. fcert oroooses. Denise honestly tells
him she loves someone else, but
aeeeotn him on the condition that
the marriage be a formal one and.
If at the end of a year she is not
happy be will free her. Keith is
disturbed when he hears the news
hut does not believe Denise will go
' through with it. One day at break
fast, wnen ms miner m particu
lar ! domineering and disagreeable
Keith Queries. "Why do you dislike
m so? "I dislike you because yon
are soft like vour mother." came
. the reply. When Keith was only a
wear eld. his mother had run away
; with her music teacher and had died
shortly after. Since then, the em
bittered Sheldie. SrM took hia hurt
out on his son, bending him to his
will and preventing Keith from
living his own life. The latter was
often filled with self-contempt for
enduring his father's treatment. At
first he stood it for loyalty but. as
the years passed, he realized it was
because of the money he would
inherit. On the motning of the
announcement of her Sister's en
f:agement, Felicia was breakfasting
n bed. trying not to be annoyed by
the dick-clack of ber husband i
riding-boot. Sbe had not antici
pated how dreary marriage without
love could be. Just then Eustace
comes Into the room and asks.
"Look here. Felicia, is this mar
riage of Denise's going to be all
right?'
CHAPTER IX
"I was thinking, Felicia, that De
nise is not the sort who should
marry without love." Eustace went
There I He teas shrewd to figure
that out. How had he? He saw so
little of Denise, she didnt suppose
he knew about Keith. She said
slowly: "Love has so many defini-
"No; dont put me off, dsrl'ig
. - It seems pretty important.
"Pretty important, too. that Fa
ther and Mother shouldn't go bank
rupt, ustace. "
: "I was afraid that was it"
She did not answer.
He looked at her straightly, his
gray eyes clear as a child s.
-If you think it's all rieht '
"How can one be sure? I think
it's sensible."
"Yes. It was sensible of you to
, marry me, too, instead of Duane.
Have you been glad you did,
thoueh?"
. . She was so startled she could not
'. believe she had heard him aright.
Never since their wedding-day had
he said anything that indicated he
knew she bad married bira while she
loved his reckless cousin.
He said, evenly : "Dont look
troubled, my dear. Sometimes, I've
just wanted to know if you were
: really happy. You're so much clev
" erer than I, and you pretend better.
I shouldn't have asked, of course."
"You should have asked, if you
wanted to know." But she could
not, could not keep her voice from
shaking, remembering how madly
she'd loved Duane, how she had
wept, secretly and so alone, when
- he crashed the last of the planes
he loved, and died swiftly.
Her husband looked at her. She
made herself be steady. Futile to
wonder whether i she wished she d
shared one year with Duane, in
stead of having all the other years
could bring her to wonder still
whether she wished she had been be
side him in that last instant when
his plane went down, and he who
bad so hated loneliness must cave
been so dreadfully lonely, facing
death. : :
She said, very fast: "I wouldn't
have married anyone but you. I'm
always glad I'm married to you,
Eustace." But he had been water
ing her face, not listening to her
words, and he sighed.
he said, "and spend it making you
lie could not quite repeat, "mak
ing you happy." She felt neither
happy nor unhappy, only altogether
calm, as the days followed each
other.
Her marriage was arranged for
the week before Thanksgiving. Gil
bert would not return until immedi
ately before the wedding. They
would sail for the Mediterranean.
Their further plans were indefinite. .
None of those ethings seemed
either specially important or very
real. She grew a little thin, and
Felicia's expression, watching her,
was sometimes dubious, so that one

Ezra Swears Off!
By. JMMY MURPHY
"I was thinking. Felicia, that Denise is not the sort who should marry
' without love."
denly, she felt ungrateful. "Eus
tace, I'm not half as nice to you as
I should be. But you mustn't et
notions in your handsome head, just
because once, briefly, I was fond of
your cousin. Such ages ago, I'd al
most forgotten it. and never guessed
it worried yoa."
She held out her round arms to
him. lie bent down to kiss her, and
she made her kiss reassuring. No
need to let Eustace be unhappy, if
kisses could help it!
November was a month of gray
lowering days and odd, clear, sunlit
days that seemed left over from a
far summer. It seemed to Denise
that they went by fast, yet were
empty,, though she was occupied
with her trousseau and wedding ar
rangements. I
"A ouiet wedding, if von dont
mind, dear," her mother said gently.
"It's in much better taste, since our
money is Gilbert's really."
She said she did not mind.
"No use in a long engagement,"
Felicia said firmly, "since Gilbert
can best arrange his affairs to take
a leave soon." s ,
Denise echoed her: "No use in a
long engagement."
Gilbert was gone to Canada for
that arrangement of his affairs.
Tv going to take a whole Tear off." I
,It was five days before her wedding-day,
and four before Gilbert's
expected return, when in her morn
ing mail. Denise had a- letter from
Keith a very short letter:
"I'm just back from the West,
Denise, and should like to see you
for a few minutes. Will you have
tea with me either Friday or Satur
day if you are free? Unless you'd
rather not, of course.
- "I shall be in the Plaza lobby both
days, at half-past four. So don't
bother to answer this. Just apptar
if you choose.
"If yoe dont choose, well, con
sider that there are enclosed all the
best wishes for you, my darling. But
I'd rather make them personally.
Only to make them is of course sot
the principal reason I want to see
you. . . : - Keith." f ..
That letter came on Friday morn
ing. -
All day she thought she did not
know whether she meant to meet
him or not. Bet wild excitement
flamed in her; and her eyes and
cheeks were brilliant, so that even
her.unobserving father noticed ano
said: "How well -and happy you
look, Denise I"
