(PAGE SIX S JIEDFORD 1IXIL TRIBUJTE, ILEDFORD, OREGON, "WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 1932. By GLENN CHAFFIN ud UAL FOUUtS- TAILSPIN TOMMY Speed Bails Out! You' Cant Marry by Julia Clet-Addanu BrNvrnio: jenny Itevelt per euadee Eddie Townsettd not to tell anyone he hae married her coualn Qeorgle, tor it Qeorgie'a employer learned of it he would discharge her. Oeorote'e plan ot eaying that Jenny hae married Eddie ie en dangered by a doctor wh.' attend ed Eddie alter an automobile accident. Chapter 23 DANGEROUS INVESTIGATIONS 'IS3 JENNY!" She turned, gasping, her haul on her heart; but It was only Ryder Vale. "Startled you nearly out of your skin!" he remarked cheerfully, hli (unny smile puckering up his cheeks. "I was Just going round to your place. Get In?" Jenny declined politely. "I'm afraid Georgle Isn't at home," she explained. "Mr. Match Ins whisked her off with him on some business expedition." "You've got an Inferiority com plex." Vale told ber. "Always think Georgle Is the magnet, don't youT Hop In, there's a good girl. Ire got a lot ot little questions to ask you. The first Is what did you want to go and get married for without asking Uncle Ryder's bless ing?" "I suppose," said Jenny, after a tautlous pause, "that you read "MlseJsnnyl" 8he turned gasping, her hand on about our accident In the paper?'; "You suppose quite rightly. And you may further suppose that when I read that TownBend had Just mar ried a Miss Revell ot Byle Street. I said to myself 'That must be our Jenny, for the reason that sever In this world could It be our Georgle! No, no, never would our Georgle chuck that Job ot hers tor the sak of any little house ot dreamsl . . . Well, any flaw In the argument?" - She bad got In beside blm and he was driving very slowly along, his face still amusingly puckered but something shrewd behind the mile. Jenny had the Impression that he waa feeling his way; It oc curred to ber alsr that, like the Old Man, he might not believe the tale she told, but that he would be satisfied If the telling bore scru tiny. "No flaw at all," she answered as casually as she could. "Perhaps you remember I told you that Georgle wasn't specially Interested in Eddie. And you're quite right about the Job, Georgle Is deter mined to keep It at any cost." The last was so true that she had tittered It almort vehemently and (he felt him shoot a quick glance at her. She added, somewhat hast ily: "What other questlona do you want to ask?" "Whore and how poor old Townsend Is? I hear he went through the windshield." "That didn't really matter," said Jenny with unconscious humor. "The real damage was done to his nerves. He has quite broken down and It's doubtful whether he will ver be a 'bird-man' again. At any rate, he will have to have a long holiday." . Vale seemed sincerely concerned. He drove easily along, talking as easily ot cures, and treatments, and cases he had known, where recov ery had been miraculously prompt and even more miraculously per tnanent. "Er where did you say he was aow?" ha Interjected. "He made me promise not to tell any one," answered Jenny firmly. She had been prepared for this. COURT IN PLEA FOR RELIEF ACT The county court yesterday wired the Oregon delegation In congress, asking they give their voices and votes In support ot the unemploy ment relief bill now pending, without any quibbling. Counly Judge C. B. Lamkln return ed this morning from Portland, where he attended the meeting ot county Judges with the governor for the out lining of a relief program. No defi nite action was taken. Judge Lamkln said that hi obser vations at the session convinced him that Jackson county was not "as bad oft aa many oViec counties ot the atattj" "He has a terror of seeing any one for the time being and so he has gone Into biding, as you might call It" She laughed, a pleasant, firm laugh. "I shan't let him out until he Is absolutely himself again." "I see. Very wise! Good Job he has got you to look after him." But Vale sounded dubious. "D'you know a man called Tallas, a doc tor?" "He gave Eddie flrst-ald Just after the accident. And be brought him up from the hospital todsy. Why do you ask?" "Oh, well, I know him slightly. As a matter of fact, 1 came across blm an hour or so ago, and be stopped me. Apparently he's heard I knew you and Georgle. He talked a bit he's an odd sort of fellow. Bit ot a gossip. Inquisitive, I should say." Jenny considered this In silence. Was It a warning? If Ryder Vale were warning her, what could she do to avest the danger of Tallas' Investigations? She decided that she could do noth ing, but she felt grateful to Vale for bis hint, and grateful to blm, too. for accepting a version ot the facts which, as she Instinctively felt, be did not bellove. She sighed. Apparently It was not nearly so simple as It had seemed, tbls mak ing people tblnk you had married her heart Eddie Townsend when you hadn't! "You're all alone In that apart ment?" queried Vale, cocking an eyebrow at It as he drew up gently bofore Us door. "Yes." Jenny hoped that he would not suggest coming up. Her head was beginning to ache. "Then why not come tor a run?" he Invited. "Come and have a saucer ot orean. somewhere. It'll take your mind oft things." She hod fully meant to decline when be began to speak but his voice Bounded genuinely friendly and she wavered. The empty apart ment, with Its unfinished chores, suddenly repelled her. "I I should like It. But I must be back by well, quite by six." "Six It shall be. Any place you'd like to go to? No? What about an Inn at a little place up the river? It's what they call an old world place. Like old world places?" Yes, Jenny liked them. She liked, also, settling back In tbla Jolly lit tle car and not having to make con versation. It rather surprised her Ryder Vale did not want her to talk to htm. He had struck her as a man who would prefer a ripple of absurdities to nothing at all. However, he appeared to be preoc cupied, and she could rest. She watched the traffic idly and Idly looked for the first gleam ot the river. "Trald I'm a dull dog today," he said finally. "Must be the heat; i can't remember a hotter August There's the Inn." Jenny descended Into a court yard full of white geraniums and cool green smllax trails. All along one side ran a tea-room with win dows thrown wide to the air and electrlo fans humming. It looked cool and attractive and there was a table vacant near a window. She walked In and took possession. Slipping the little coat from her shoulders on to tho back ot the chair, she glanced round. Facing her, directly In line with another window at the oppoelte end ot the room, sat Garth Aveney, (CoryrtffM. Julia Clett-Addame) Avtnty Is wllh a woman. Will hs spaak to Jsnny, tomorrow?
