PAGE SIX THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON WEDNESDAY, JUNE S. 1931 eUcuwH CRM QViUkc LITTLE ORPHAN ANNIE Another Day By Harold Cray up. ct eRewT ) JcXJ jka9 I Llqs Tn wrBeroiE I Time I was Chapter t DRAMA OFF-STAGE Toward the end of their laat year at the academy, Antonio began to think seriously of tne future. He had not fully committed himself to the ministry, but It was tacitly ac cepted by his parents and the com munity Utat he was to enter a roeo- logical Semlne.-y lol lowing his Spa llation from the Academy. The young man realized that the tune for definite decision was at nana. Then It was spring and the Dra matic Club was giving Its last play of the season. Harriet and Tony were rehearsing In their theater that little retreat waned m oy tne flowery banks and the willow thick et. The memories of their first boy and girl meeting and of tne many hours they had spent there together the season, warm and rich with the fragrance of the earth and growing things do you wonder that the young man was stupid about the play which he and the girl were rehearsing and that she had often to chide him for not geting into his His thoughts were all upon the roles that Harriet and he ware to act in a play of much greater Im portance l nan me one in wmcn they would appear on the Dramatic Club stage before all Orchard Hill. Tony wanted to make the lore passages real. But the girl was too intent upon tne arama ana ne aarea not risk SDeaWing of his very real love when she was so occupied with the art of making their stage love seem real. So the boy took what comfort he could in their mimic love scenes and waited a more oppor tune time. That dIav was a great success, Harriet, in her love scenes with Tony, must have felt the genuine ness of his passion. Certainly she electrified the audience like a crea ture inspired. Even those who were most emphatic In their disapproval of the professional stage and of Har riet, crowded about her, when the final curtain was down, witn con gratulatlons. The girl In the excite ment of her triumph threw her arms about Tony's neck and kissed him before everybody. It was an un heard-of thing for an Orchard Hill girl to do and Orchard Hill did not forget it. Tony felt so confident of her love that he almost spoke that night when he took her home. But some thing warned hlra that this was not the time: so he asked her to meet him at their theater the next day.i in the afternoon. When the appointed hour ar-j rived Antonio was there, hidden I among the willows. He wanted to cce her as he saw her that day when barefooted, fish pole and fish in hand, he first thrilled to the charm of her girlhood. Presently she came along the path from her home on the hill. Tony held his brcnth and Blood very still. While watting for her lover, not realizing that he was so near, Harriet gathered violets, exactly as on that other occasion which now st-cmcd to Tony but an hour ago. At lust the young man stepped forth. The girl stod, smiling, as If &he had known all the time how near he was. "Hello," said Tony, foolishly. Hello," answered Harriet; and then added, with the adorable shy ness of a little girl, "been flshln?" She had remembered tool She was sitting on a large stone, when Tony, who sat on the grass at her feet, managed to speak what was In his heart. For what seemed to the young man a long time, the girl made no reply but sat motion less, as If she were seeing things In. visible to him and listening to voices he could not hear. And In that si lent moment the boy's heart sank.! for he knew what her answer would ' be. At last she smiled a strange lit-1 tie smile and said gently, "I have known for a lono; time.

She paused and her voice was not quite steady. "And you have known, I am sure, that X ex pected you to ask me to marry you. I phould have been terribly dlsap-l puhitdd and hurt if you had not I because because you see, I do love I vou and I wanted this moment, Tony, dear, because It is all we can ver have. To all his pleadings she answered I that she had given herself to the! stage, recognizing their love and! realizing all that tne sacrifice wouia mean. She felt that she was born to the theater. To her, the art of acting was sacred. Antonio had been set apart by his parents to the 'Jiurch. In spite of their lore they must go their separate ways. In desperation Tony declared he I would not give her up. He argued I that he had not finally committed 1 himself to the church and that his parents had no right to say what his life work should be. He said that he would go with her; that they would together devote their lives to the theater. But Harlett answered: "I have I thought all that nut, Tony; It sim ply cannot be. Inevitably we would I both feel that I had come between I you and your parents, even that I j had lured you away from the! church. The realization would make I happiness Impossible. If I were to I deny my own nature and give up I my art we would come to the same i unhappiness. xt is oetter xor both, Tony, dear, to keep our lore I as It Is beautiful and unspoiled." When he could not prevail against I her decision he took her home along I the little hillside path. For a long I time he stood in the twilight, watch ing the door through which she had entered the house, hoping against I hope that she would feel him wait-1 Ing there and would come back. But the door remained closed. That play, which the Dramatic I Club had presented only the night I before, was given for the benefit of 1 the Academy Library Fund. Tony I was treasurer of the Club. The good villagers of Orchard Hill were wCd with wrathful excitement the next day when it was discovered that Antonio Latour and the money which the Dramatic Club had earned for the school library had disappeared (To be continued) Floating: Casinos Reap Harvest As Law Deliberates Long Beach. Cal. (LP) While the question of whether a county's au thority extends out to sea is being I settled In court, gambling ships have renewed their activities off the I const. The Johanna Smith and Rose Isle are reported to be doing a thriving I business as hundreds of people from Loa Angeles and surrounding cities J flock to the floating casinos. A previous attempt to operate the I ships resulted In the arrest of 15 1 members of the Johanna Smith's I crew and action being taken against 16 operators of launches which al legedly plied between here and the I gambling ships. Another easel against 18 members of the Rose Isle I crew Is also pending In court. On the outcome of these cases I will depend the policy adopted by I county authorities who are puzzled I as to Just what procedure to take against the gambling ships.
