CHAPTER XXXIV
Caroline said brightly? "It was
extremely nice of yon, Barry, to
look me up like this. 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

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

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.

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.

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.

J. H. Beilenburg received word

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, ' ; ;

NEW YORK, May 20-(vP-Wnile
traders generally leaned
to the selling side In today's
stock market, most kept offerings
to small amounts and there were
sufficient supporting orders to

Quiet strength of aircraft and
utilities helped oolster tte list
after a moderate relapse at the
start. T
In addition, those who liad ex
pected the coppers to topple fol
lowing yesterday's cut-in the do
mestic price of tho red metal
from 10 to 9 cents a pound, a
new low since 193 5, were agree
ably surprised when- this group

Political Puzzles
1 Unsettling Wools
BOSTON, May 20-(-P)-The
Commercial Bulletin will say to
morrow: ."Wool is easier. There is no
denying that the political un
certainties are contributing to de
press further a market naturally
more or less dull, at this season.
Not only are the mills bidding
less money on Summer street but
there ' is also" some let-down, in
the west. Wool moves more slow
ly, in consequence.' v -
"Foreign markets are Irregu
lar. Primary markets are fairly
firm on fine wools but crosnbreds
are easy and secondary markets
are unsettled and ull.
"There is little new in the
plecegoods markets. Buying is
limited and subject to forced
sales, as is true in clothing.
"Mohair is slower and inclin
ed to ease slightly again.' Quo
tations: Scoured basis.. Oregon:
fine and F. M. staple 65-GO; fine
and F. M. clothing 56-58. Mo
hair: Oregon, 25-27.

ries. In the North Howell, berry
pool, sold, the coming crops to
Libby, McNeil & Libby tf Port
land at 6 cents a pound, at a
meeting Thursday night at the
North Hiwell grange hall.
Tho local receiving station will
be opened at the ltuss cc-ners
as formerly and this price is for
uncapped fruit.
The pool includes: approxi
mately 75 orj 100 acres, less
than one third of the Etterburg
area of five years ago. While
the growth in individual nlants
is -very good and ' the blooms
xbming out fast grotfers are not
at - all : optimistic about' a good
yield because the .stem growth
is light and the root , system-impaired.
