The OHEGON CTATE3JIAN, Salem, Oregon, Thnrsday Morning, April I, 1637 Grains Hit Top And Then Drop Buenos ; Aires Leads Late Tumble as European Demand Reduced CHICAGO, March 31 -(ff) - UhMt ami corn values botn nrnMi 1at ' tndav after - S T rocketing to f res- top record prices unequalled In gome cases since 1925. The late reaction, which as a rule more than wiped, out sains, was led by the Buenos Aires market, where wheat fell aDout i rent from earlier high levels Back of . this was the cnrcam stance that European demand for wheat had apparently come to a practical halt except pur chases of about 4,000. ouu ousn els by Greece from Czechoslova kia. At the close, wheat was at the day's bottom level, 1V-2K cents under yesterday's fniish, May $1.42 July $1.27 Sept. $1.24 corn varying from 4 cent lower to an ad vance of 2 cents. May $1.21 -6-8, July $1.15 Sept. $1.09 U-3-8, Oats unchanged to cent off. May 49 3-8-Ji, and rye 1-5-8 down to up. May $1.16. Provisions closed un changed to ID cents lower. ' Rye and oats traders took their cue mainly from wheat ac tion. Provisions averaged lower, ow ing ' to indications of enlarged stock of lard here. Choir Members Honored By Mrs. Sylvester at Easter Evening Party SILVERTOX, March . 31 Fol lowing the presentation of the cantata at the Methodist church Sunday night, Mrs. P. E. Sylves ter entertained in the. basement of the church for choir members and tbeir husbands and wives. The party especially honored Mr. and Mrs. Fred Baker, the day being their wedding anniversary, and Mrs. W. P. Scarth, whose birthday anniversary was that day. Dr. and Mrs. Sydney Hall of Salem were special guests. Later in the evening, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Riches were home I Leisure CHAPTER XIV j - They went Into the Savoy and' chose a table far from the music ti was suddenly completely aware of something he had sensed vaguely before that Felicia disliked him. So, be would get no more informa tion from her than she decided to rive. He said slowly, making' conversa tion: "I'm well enough. I've been a bit tied down with Father." "Yes; sorry to hear he was HI, was glad when I heard he was bet ter." Her voice was so completely .indifferent that he laughed; and she smiled, a little maliciously. "Ill tell you everything you want to know in two sentences, Keith: We all feel Denise has made an ex cellent marriage, that it will last, and is the best thing she could have done that Gilbert will take good care ox her: her letters sound com pletely happy. They plan to stay abroad a year, and are, at present, in Cairo." "Of course, I don't know whether to believe one word of it, except that they're in Egypt. I've no reason to doubt that." A small dimple showed at the cor ' ner of her pretty month. "Dance with me, Keith. As I remember, you dance superbly." As they started to dance, he said: "Don't treat me like a gigolo, Feli cia. I may even dance as well as your kind words imply, but I'm man of substance. Came into money lately." "How nice for you ! I hadn't heard that your father was in his dotage." He didn't answer. She danced like a dream he remembered, but he .wouldn't sav sot Back at their table an idea came to him: "Felicia, how much did you have to do with Denise's marriage?" "A rreat deal. . He thought definitely that he had never hated anyone so much in his life. "Why did you?" Her voice "was suddenly ran tie: she put a lovely hand on his sleeve. "Dont look murderous. I wanted ' Denise to be always safe. She couldn't have been, with you." But his anger only lessened little. . . "That'a what you married for too,. Isntltl" "Shot in the dark. Keith. IshaVt tell you if It landed." "Not interested." - "No, I dont suppose) so. Ton wouldn't have made Denise a good Husband, ail trie same." , ' "Why are you so sure?"

" Tour dancing's better than your Aaef!Ati 8jVWT4SaiMV4 "Thanks." lloving slowly about the crowded flood, he said: "I think I shall go abroad and take Denise away from her highly reputable husband. She and I belong; and you don't know wnat you are talking about." "I shall go to your father. He chuckled. You mean it, dont you; and you guess that, newly re covered from pneumonia, he cant stand shocks and that having come into money, I feel grateful. Did anyone ever dislike you violently CAVIV "I am not sure." "You are beautiful, trivial, no sroodatalL" "I said that about you to Denise no good at all. I have great influ ence with Denise." "Well go back to the table, if you don t mind. "But I do mind. X like this music." They danced the rest of that dance in -a complete silence. tJacK at tneir ' table, she said: "And another eock- tail. " "Fraid I haven't time." "Yes, you have, Keith. It's im portant.

"It's important to make you sure she will never come back to you. "Never is long." "I learned that, sometime since. . . . Let her alone, Keith; you will only damage her." "So positive. She sighed: "Antagonism is a pleasantly strong emotion, isn't it?" "I assure you my antagonism for you is the strongest emotion I've felt in years." ,7A11 right. Come to see me, Wednesday, at tea-time, and let's have more of this." He did not, say that he would come. But somewhat to his own surprise, he found himself ascend ing in the elevator of her apartment-house, at five o'clock on Wednesday. She was, after all, as close as he could come to hearing of his desire I ; i That day she had thought out her words. She told him coolly, that he was weak, enangeabie: but she took the edge off her words by saying he was like herself. She reiterated that Denise would never come back,jmtil he told her furiously that she was a malevolent Cassandra, Then she laughed at him, and asked him to stay for dinner. For a long time after that evening they both meant well, aa the most curious liking for each other grew in them. Felicia discovered that she looked forward to seeing him rather specially, on her way back from ten days in New Mexico in February. (Of which the last nine days had been long.) She worried very little about tbat discovery, lie and she were old hands at the unimportant and amusing game they were nlay lng. There would.be no burnt fin gers! With that mixture of meta phors In ner head, she got off the train, not expecting to be met, to find him waiting for her. "Thought it would be a pleasant Not the least good will come of us." "No harm either, I assure you." "I know that too. And then laughed. ... Eustace was going to the North west from New Mexico on some af fairs of his family. He had not planned to take her. Means ex treme cold weather sometimes made herilL Her trio to New Mexico had been a gesture before he started his journey north. There were, upon her return, a succession of bitterly coid aays in new xork. sn bad a slight attack of influenza, and re covering, smiled to Bermuda. "Check from grandfather-in law," she told Keith cheerfully. It was entirely accidental that, therevening of her departure, Keith Sheldie, Senior, said to his son: "Couldnt we take a trip, out of this weather? I've never been to Ber muda, It sounds pleasant buggies and tnings." - -. "They can them victorias. mosuy. i "Would you sro with me?" Keith hesitated, and laughed at himself. No reason why not. surely. No good and no harm would come ox it, UI course." i Thev. sailed two Hav l.tr- TT f wired Felicia, and she met them at tbe dock. His father took the most enormous fancy to her. i vepracticed in the correct man ner," Felicia told him, "with my grand f ather-in-1 aw." jThat bit of impudence sent the elder Keith Sheldie's laughter booming across the harbor. I Felicia had sublet a cottage. The house which Keith's father liked best was no more than three min utes' walk from hers. After ing all his energy climbing in and out of glass-bottomed boats, and down and up caves, the elder man went to bed after dinner. ffVvV IT . a a tnen iveitn and Felicia went aancmg, or driving about through the scented dark; or they sat on her vernnaa aDove tfte j harbor and talked.

Between, there's this irrelevant episode, meaningless, lovely, not exigant." lie did not answer. Between the daneavtunes, between raoanrise and moon set, and the turn- inn of their carriage-wheels along the white roads, they told each other things they had told no other par son. "Because we want nothing of each other," ahe said. A terrible nnsureness was grow nor in him as ta that. He told her of his mother, of his first c earing of that old story, of all his childhood. She told him the whole story of her love for Duane Fen ton. Then he was able to talk to her of Denise at last, certain of her understanding. There was a night ox bright moon light that cast deep shadows. ; The palm tree in her garden stirred in the night breeze softly. The harbor below was silver aad deep dark, a substance between water and fluid light. He and she were two light voices, two shadowy outlines in long chairs. Her voice saidt "We are shadows. or all the world beyond us is a sha dow world. The edges of reality blur. I am no more than a tranquil shadow for this minute, while I dont move to see if there's anything beyond." His voice, laughing, said : "Magic! Well, tben, tola comer of tbe world la all." Her voice said dreamily: "I re member once I was a bitter, proud woman who loved and minded so dreadfully losing Duane." trim voice said: "Long ago, far away. He will never come back," Then he knew why he said those words. He stood up, flung his arras out to the unregarding sky. "She wont ever come back. I was a fool to dream ahe would." Felicia aaid: "No. she never will." The world steadied. He waa a man, and she was a beautiful woman. on a veranda wnere tne moonlight flung odd shadows. He said: "You and I remain." She lifted her face, which was very pale in the moonlight, when he put his arms round her. She kissed him twice. Her voice was calm as hia as ahe aaid : "So all our tomorrows are upon us, Keith?" "Yes, and what shall wa do with them?" "Waste them, I suppose. It would be in character." "Tonight too, Felicia?" Yes, let's waste tonight. In hoaer of " "Of something or other." Yon sound nn flatteringly cheer ful about it, Keith." ; "Being a gentleman in spite of all." "You are fun, you know." "You too." i This is going to be very, very thin ice." "Fun to skate on, Felicia." "I know," she sighed. "Dont kiss me often." "Very seldom, or practically all the time. Does it occur to you we're being very adult. I begin to have great respect for us." "That'll be a novelty. Kiss me good-night, briefly, and go home." "No, I couldn't briefly. IH go home without, if you dont mind." "But I do mind." - - He remembered, too, that first time they danced at the Savoy. They both laughed. He kissed her and went home. The "very thin ice" held surpris ingly, through February and through March in the North. ' Felicia said: "The trouble is we aren't despicable, any more than we're admirable." "My sweet, like all women, you try to define too many things. We are just butterflies dancing in the sunlight and careless of tomorrow. Will that stop you?" "Very quickly, Keith."
