When did you tret back, and did you see Alec and Gina, and If you did, how are they?" They- were in her small dressing- room after the evening performance ef her show, and she was removing her third act makeup. In a blue cotton robe, belted slimly at the waist, its loose sleeves rolled up above her bare elbows, she looked like a school girl, a little breathless and exhilarated from a hard game of basketball. Yet lessrthan twenty minutes ago, he had seen her give a com- , petent and captivating performance . behind the footlights. IT said "I ent rinrlr tvn Aairm im and I saw both Gina and Alec and they are both welL" He added, "A year ago you were very wide-eyed and tremulous about the New York stage ... do you still feel the same way about it, now that you have ar ; rived 1" She frowned and smeared cold cream evenly over her face and then I removed it carefully. "No, of course not. I mean most of the glamor and excitement has gone out of it. I've worked very hard and it's a great satisfaction to be doing a good job , v: .. v :i J II 3 .I1VH 4 IITA VII V UI31Uai IUC X made of Alec's, but I've decided that Gina was awfully right when she told me a year ago that it was an arduous business. It is, of course." . So he had been correct, thought Barry, and this child, for all her talent and energy, was not poten - tially an actress. Yet she would probably go on being one for the rest of her life, or such part of it as she was active at anything. And it - was little too bad, he decided, be cause she would really be much hap pier warming her hands at the firs of some man s success rather than at ner own. out ii ene oian i marry . ... , . ii . Alec, and be was fairly certain that when he finished what he had come to say to her, she wouldn't, it was quite possible that sba might go on alone, Indefinitely, ' becoming in creasingly, absorbed, ix not en thralled, with her work. And in the end, another adequate but not out standing actress would be achieved at the expense of an ultimately happy wife and mother. . Because for some time now, Barry had been convinced beyond all doubt that whether Caroline knew it r not, she was primarily the sort of woman who craved the fulfillment of marriage and maternity rather than the cold and often lonely glory of personal success. But there was nothing he could do about this. Us had come here to night, cot to make any attempt to direct her life, other than as it affected Gina'. It was Gina,-after all, for whom he was making this gesture . . . the last one, he hoped, that he would ever have to make for her. Bat after all, he had interfered WIUI X1T lV JT CX 9 SiU, IVllUUSKIJ or unfortunately, whichever way you wanted to look at it, so it was no more than fitting and proper that he should interfere once more. And those last days In London, he had seen that he had to,-if any happiness was to come out of this for any of them. Eo he said now, "Caroline, what I am going to ell yon may npset yon quite badly.

Fol'owing the judging a weiner roas' was enjoyed. I I DARE By ALLEN El CURLISS can go somewhere and have supper, perhapsT" - i " - r She turned around and looked at him in surprise. She had finished with her face and was brushing her hair. It swept away from her fore head in bright confusion, giving her the appearance of a young and startled child. The beauty that had been only a promise a year ago was still a promise, Barry decided, but it was a much more definite and un deniable one now. i She said, MI should like to go some where and have supper with you, but if you have something to tell me, I would rather hear it here alone with you than in a crowd of people." "That's what I thought." Her eyes rilling slowly with ap prehension, she laid down the hair brush and clasped her hands lightly in her lap. -What is It, Barry 7" When he didn't answer her at once, she said, "It s something about Alec, isn't it?", He nodded. Then be let her have it straight, not trying to soften it at all. "Alec is in love with - Gina, Caroline. He always has been but for some reason he seemed to grow absent-minded about it, and in the interval he got himself en gaged to you. j i Caroline continued to sit very still, her eyes fixed on Barry. But now they were filled with complete and very honest consternation. She sajd, her voice a little stunned, "But Barry ... it doesn seem possible that I wouldn't have teen. . . ." Then she went on, her voice now more stirred, more acutely concerned, "And Gina ... does she ... is she . , . that is, are they both. . . "Yes," said Barry, "they are. And they're wretchedly unhappy about it, , Being decent,; honorable souls they are, of course, utterly incapable of doing anything about it So I took it upon myself to do what ob viously someone had to do. In other words, I decided to come straight to you and tell you. I thought," he con cluded mildly, "that ycu ought to know - , ; , "Yes," said Caroline, breathing softly, "oh, yea. Barry l" j Then she managed a small, un steady smile. TThank yon so very much. It was exactly the right thing to do." "Yes. That Is, I hoped you would think so. I said to myself, '111 tell her and then she can do whatever she thinks best, but at least She will know. . . . " v i- - "There is only one thing to do, of course . , . We both know that." Barry walked over to her and laid his hand lightly ; on her' shoulder. "Stop me if I am wrong, but arent you just the least bit relieved about it alii" ; She considered this honestly, en tirely without embarrassment or re sentment. Finally she said, "I sup pose I am. I was shocked at first . . . I'm terribly fond, of both of them, you see. And for some time now I have thought of myself as being en gaged to Alee ... but I suppose that the feeling I have for him is more affection and gratitude than any thing else, and 1 suppose that I have known for some time, even though I wouldn't admit it, that it wasn't enough. ..." He patted her shoulder lightly. "In that case I feel l was absolutely justified in coming here and mixing up in something that wasnt any of my business. ... Let's go somewhere and have some food. I "And decide saU Caroline, i .06 - - J 9 , .13 I .13 .17 Another Drop Sinks Wheat Kansas Forecast Places Harvest There at 207 Million Bushels CHICAGO, May 20-0P-Jolted by expected huge : production in Kansas, Chicago wheat values fell a cent a bushel today, almost eclipsing again the markets 4 year low record. ' The Robinson Elevator com pany, a recognized trade author ity, issued a .forecast that Kan sas would harvest 207,503,000 bushels this season, as against the latest official estimate of 193,000.000 bushels.. The Rob inson forecast acsumed ncrmal weather would prevail, and that blac rust developments would not be serious. Exports Are Slow Tending, further, to pull prices down was -the fact that North American export business acuount ed to only scattered parcels and that cables were received telling of rains in Australian dtr dis tricts and of prospective large seeding of wheat in Argentina. Contributing to bearish sent! ment was word from Shnman, Texas, that some small fields of wheat near there have already beenut and shocked," Th first in the United States this season. It was added that if feather conditions permitter, additional fields would be . cut by Monday. A n o t h e r-- Influence promoting price downturns here wa, that the Liverpool market, due of a cent higher, closed today "at M-k of a cent net loss. Corn displayed notable steadi ness, but rye and oats followed wheat rather than Corn. f Good Times Qub Enjoys '500' Play SCOTTS MILLS The Good Times club was entertained Sun day evening by Kurk Weideman at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Plas. Several tables of "500" were in play and high score was won ty Marie Plas and George Helvey. J. H. Beilenburg received word of the death of his brother, T. M. Beilenburg of Genason, Idaho last Friday. The next day he was called to the bedside of his moth er who is critically ill and is. not expected to recover. Jean Magee of Scotts Mills and Betty Whitlock of the Thomas district, both piano Btudents of Mrs. Violet Byberg of Silverton, played over station KOAC Thurs day from 11:30 to 12:00. NOT smiling at him faintly, "what I am to say to Alec when I write him to morrow. ... But in the end they talked of a dozen things and almost not at all of Alec They both knew what she would say. She would say simply that she had had time to think things over quietly and she had changed her mind about wanting to marry him or anyone just at the mo ment. ... ' ' ' ' And Barry knew, or thought he knew, what Alec would do when he got that letter. He would go directly to the flat on Half Moon Street. Barry, sitting in a restaurant in New York, could see suddenly every detail of that small, intimate sitting-room, with its bow window and' turkey-red carpet. He could see the parchment silk curtains drawn against the London fog, and the fire light streaking the carpet . . . and Gina's face lifted to Alec's. . . . ; He came back abruptly and apolo getically to New York and Caroline. Smiling at her, a trifle absently but not at all unhappily, hesthought, "I shall never have to worry about Gina, any more, but I must see a lot of this child this winter. I must see : that she meets certain people, gets included on certain amusing par ties. ..." s In this way had Barry for years met situations like this . . he had found that invariably it worked 1 very well. He had no idea that a re- : mark he was about to make was going to prove a thousand times I more upsetting to Caroline than I anything he had told her previously -that evening. . ' He said, "By the way. I saw ' Tommy-Gale this afternoon and he I tells me he's leaving town ina week I or so. Seems he's got some sort of an , engineering contract in northern ' Canada. Ontario,' I think he said. Anyway,- he eeemed to think that a i job that took him away from New : York for two years was the world's : priie package. .; ." " . And so, in the end, Barry sent her home that night to lie wide-eyed and sleepless, until dawn crept in, a pale, wavering ghost at the bedroom win-1 dotrs. He had said Tommy Gale was leaving town in a week or so. He had said, "He seems to think that a job that will take him away from new Tors for two years is the wcrld's prize package. . . ." - r - Two years. He was going away and he wouldn't be back for two years. Anything might happen in two years. Anything. And what ever happened, they couldnt pos sibly be the same two people at the end of that lime that they were now." Even if they met again ... which they might not. : , ; ? Two years. It was too long. It stretched ahead too far. Along too dark and lonely a road. He couldnt go off like this without seeing her. Without saying good-by. Yet he would. - She. knew he would. She knew it with an awful certainty that clutched at her heart and left it shaken and frightened and desolate. He would go without making the ' slightest effort to see her, to say good-by. And she couldn't bear it When she had reached this con clusion she knew she must do some thing about it That if she were to see him, and she had to see him, that it was she who would have to make the effort, ' ; ; '(To be continued) T ?
