avoid Cltvet and the Ctrl hat be

Chapter I
ALLY FROM THE SKY
fftlTHAT you'ra really asking me
" to do li to bold yoar band
and leap with yon over a precipice,"
Santa said. "You're a year out of
college. You're your -war to make.
We would have to lira on znj par
ent. It you vers too proud to do
that, ire would have to itruggle on
what you earned. You'd ahut me
up In a potty apartment. All day
I'd be cooking. Poor you, It you
bad to eat my measeal I'd grow
ahahby and down at beel."
"So love la old-fashioned. That's
what you're telling me?"
She glanced up at him and
nodded. Her eyes were swimming.
"I'd marry you like a shot It you
eould afford me."
Mr. Dawn shouted: "Not a bad
'Then wait till I oan."
' 'When would that bef It might
be never. Besides," she flushed, "I
can't keep boya away. It Isn't my
fault I get so tired ot trying."
"But Santa, dear, bow will yon
be any aafer with a man whom you
don't love? I can't see what you
Snd In blm."
"Any more than he can see what
X find In you," she retorted tearful
ly. "Oh, yes you're no secret
We're discussed you. But I've told
you what I find In him companion
ship. I tell him everything. I shall
tell him about you presently. He
won't acowl. He's lived life and
he's understanding.
1 "Boys ot my own age are crude
ao condemning. If tbey don't get
their own way at once they turn
cruel. Dicky never nags; he's dif
ferent He'a cosmopolitan that'a
what makea blm tolerant We both
apeak languages. He knows every
body worth knowing in Paris, Vi
enna, London. It ought to be amus
ing being his wife, ringing door
bells of European aristocracy.
"One ot his cousins Is marrlod to
an Italian title. He himself was
lengagcd to an Austrian countess tor
a month. You should hear him de
scribe it" She caught her breath
In nervous laughter. "That the ex
fiance ot a countess should beg to
become my husband comnletolv
bowled Mummy over. She'd be aw
fully disappointed it You see I'm
marrying at least partly to nlease
Mummy. I owe her ao much."
"I'll say yon do," Cllve replied
Hotly.
! Santa's voice was deadly. "When
it comes to my mother, who all her
lite has sacrificed for me, I refuse
to allow "
"I'm not asking you to allow,"
CUve broke in on her. "I'm Insult
ing you with the truth. She'a taught
you to bait your hook with aci.
iWhnt'a this social racket Inught
you eicept that It's grand to cheat?
What did you mean by gobbling me
tip as though you were famished?
"If this dandy, who's been en
gaged to a countess, protends to
find your cheating delightful he's
preparing to go you one hotter. Men
don't marry to practice foreign lan
gusges. It tskes more than a for
eign language to keep two people
married. But you're sleep-walking.
AND TWO KILLED

(JP) Charles Palmer and Thomas
Katnphawk. both at Walls Walls,

In this county.
Mrs. Kllahe Davis of WalUburg was
killed late Thursday when she Jump
ed flora a truck in which ah and
her husband were coming out of the
mountains with wood. She was drag

"Not yon."
As sbe ran put him, be tried to
delay her. He was left gazing at
everything that was to have become
so sacred.
Choosing the direction that led
from the bouse, be plunged deeper
Into the wood.
On the further edge be came to a
meadow over which an aeroplane
was sinking. Skimming along the
ground, It taxied to a bait not more
than fifty yards beyond blm. A
lean figure, still alert and youth
ful, climbed out and shouted. . ..
"Not a bad landing!"' ,iV&V
Cllve went forward. '
"Getting to be quite an expert,
Ouardle. But what has Mrs. pawn
tosayr
Erie Dawn closed one eye.
"That I'm too old for such non
sense." .
Cllve knew better than bis guar
dian the gossip that this belated
passion for flying bad occasioned.
The worm bad turned and taken to
tbe air from aheer boredom at be
ing trodden on.
"Don't know whether flying's
done It, but you're looking young
er." Cllve stared Into the distance
"Not much older than that fellow
landing." Cllve went forward.
i with whom found Santa playing
"She's told yoafi ":'
"You bet"
"She's bit yon hard. It It's tny
comfort she's hit me harder."
Cllve faced about
"Why do you allow itr
"Can't stop It"
"You're responsible, Toa're her
father." ,
Dawn milled. v''
"My dear boy, In these progres
sive daya fathers are obsolott sur
vivals. Their wives and offspring
make the decisions. I was dragged
from my den by Santa, introduced
to a stranger and Informed ot their
engagement Daughtera are no
longer their parents' property.
Whom a girl marries Is her own
funeral."
"It's not, Ouardle. Tour duty Is
to protect her."
Agreed." Dawn removed his
aviator's helmet "But let's sprawl
on the grass. You're In Ioto with
Santo. You consider that I'm slip
shod. Because ot that I owe yon
consideration. I'm saying this.
Cllve, because you're h lib-princi
pled; I don't think vou realise what
you would have let yourself in tor
bad you married Santo."
What should I?"
'The divorce-court Tm not
knocking ay own dausbtor. I'm not
knocking yoq, either. But you're
romantic; she's pract!rl. For In
stance, tu jrcu a divorce would be
a disgrace to her It would be an
bonorsbla dlsoti!,rge."
"You'rs slovcMnf on yonr Job."
"Ml tho same," Dawn proceeded,
I pllr any Haallst irho becomes
my daasjMar'a huchrnd. Sbe re-
spec U neither God nor man. Her
physios! becutv Inspires dreams
which tfre's mentally Incapable ot

For the lore of Mike!" Cllve In
terrupted. "Muriate certainly isn't
a shabby stmggle to U boss."
"Then correct me."
"It's a competition In sharing."
The older man reached for the
boy's hand.
"That'a torn it. She must have
guessed that was what you
thought."
