PAGE TEN" MEDFORD ICKIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, STJNDXT, NOVEMBER 6, 1932. A PATH TfPARADISEl " BTNOPBlBt CHvs and Banta are married and on their way from Chicago back to Nu York. Clive. sacrificing his business, hat apenl (AS last two weeks with 8anta, steadying her vurooss to rid her self by divorce of the rotter Dicky. It is Olivs whom Santa had .- thrown over to marry Dicky; it is alto Clivs whom she always has loved. Dicky's worldly charm havs graved too worldly even tor the flirtatious Banta; shs is f termincd that saner values shall rule her second marriage. Chapter IT MARRIED AGAIN CLIVE glanced at the closed door ot their compartment, then at Banta'i hat-box and auitcase, la belled Xrs. OHvt Doncaster. Santa, eated opposite to him, followed hla (lanes. She had been secretly amused and touched by him all day, but hadn't dared show It What a puzzled, eager boy he was beneath the surface! Such a relief from picky. She was going to be young again. "Iff tree, Olive," she nodded. "I really belong to you." "I'm kind of stunned," he smiled. Pit takea a bit of getting used to." "For me, too." She was wondering whether she might powder her nose. Nt won't tomorrow." He seized her slender wrist. "Of course It won't Everything gtaat will be forgotten." "As though this were the first time I had been married." She read pis thoughts. Ha shifted to her side and slipped Ian arm about her. She waited pulse less as a doll. ' "I'm the only husband you ever Hud," he burst out. "Say so." She took his face between her bands. "I can never thank God enough lor baring given you to me." That satisfied him for the mo ment He twisted the wedding-ring en her finger the one he had be stowed on her. His mind was In a ferment So many thoughts so few of them to utter. Scarcely more than week ago bad he been caught In a sleep ing compartment with her, he could bar, been dragged Into her divorce. The conductor tapped and en' .tered to collect tickets. Cllve be- itrayed the customary nervousness ot the newly wedded. Santa watch ing, found his confusion adorable. Evidently he feared that the legal' Ilty of their relationship might be doubted. She'd experienced the same pangs on her first honeymoon. When they were alone again, Cllve re-seated himself beside her. "You're awfully quiet," aha cha.1 longed. "I feel such an amateur," he laughed. "1 shall love living with you In New York." She snuggled. Till now Dicky had afforded al most the sole toplo ot their eon versatlons. Would he bring counter charges at the last moment? Then, after her release from him, would he cease to annoy her? . Things had moved too fast Cllv bad judged rightly that after her ordeal, Santa wouldn't be sate to conduct her own affairs. When he'd . surprised her that morning two weeks ago, she had cultivated the complex that all her friends were shamed ot her that nobody would rer want to be seen with her. The best cure had seemed to be to restore her without waste ot time to a recognised niche In society. He had urged Immediate remarriage. She'd permitted herself to be per suaded on the condition that they 'Involved nobody In their rashness 'save themselves. Hence there had been no guests, no wedding pres ents. Not even her parents had been notified. Their plans for the future had yet to be formulated. The orst minister they had ap proached, on learning that Santa was a divorcee, had refused to offt lolate. The aeoond had Invited them 'into his parlor this waa a few boura ago and united them as perfunctorily as if he'd been issuing a dog-license. Now that hla goal had been at- . :talned and they were man and wife, bad come the reaction. Her remark as they had stepped aboard the train had started it "Married gain. I adore It" in their marriage was everything to be again for her? He had approached thla day with so much of reverence, which noth log external had reflected. At the back ot hla mind waa the account he k had read of the social Importance which had been attached to her first nuptials. Santa routed his reflections. LOOT OF COLFAX COLFAX, Wash, Nov. 8. (API Through negotiations with an under world ring, and a "ransom," paid to a bandit gang's Intermediary, hold up loot ot 169.390 In bonds stolen from the First Savings and Trust bank here six weeks ago waa back aafelv in the vaults today. In addition. Sheriff W. I. Dalley of Colfax, who has been in Seattle and Tacoma the past several days hand ling the final settlement of trie af fair, held out hopes that two of the four hold-up men might be arrested. Late yesterday, the bonds were re turned to the bank. Johnson Predicts Coast For F. D. R. CHICAGO, 111. Mot. 6. (AP) Senator Hiram jonnaon of California predicted today Oovernor Franklin Vte Roosevelt would carry California "and all the other Pacific ooast 1' I 'A penny for your thoughts, old boy. We might as well be honest" "I should bops so," he humored her. She squeezed his arm. "Then atop thinking about Dicky." His restraint melted. "I hate the sound ot his name. I can't bear to hear you mention him. But he keeps bobbing up like a Jack-in-the-box." Ha won't presently." She petted him. "Talk him out ot your system. How does he bob up?" As though hs were taking his revenge. As though he were deter mined to spoil ' "He can't" She slipped a cool hand over his mouth. Kissed each separate finger. But Santa, dear, he has so tar. We've been married like outcasts; as though we had no right to be married. That first minister who re fused to perform the ceremony, treated us as If we'd asked him to bless a liaison." He was a back-number," she soothed him. "You wanted me. I wanted you. We want each' other more than anything In the world. Here we are, with our wish granted. Does Anything else matter?" "Not really." "I can't tell you, Cllve," she cooed, 'how I've longed for you. During all the time that I was married to Dicky. Wicked ot me, wasn't It? I would imagine be was you. Close my eyes and Imagine." Glancing down, all be could see waa her dark head against his shoulder. Fields rushing by, grew vague In twilight So you see, Cllve, if It makes you feel better, even when I seemed to be Dlckya I was yours." Makes me feel glorious," he whispered. "And yet things that oughtn't to matter often matter terribly," ahe continued. "Dicky had had heaps ot women friends. Something he let out on the honeymoon warned me. I at once became afraid of what you're fearing now. But you're not an old story, Cllve. You're excit ingly new. Always will be. I swear it" He gathered her to him. "That's all right little woman." "It isn't all right" She twisted. Pre got to make you certain. You're th gainer by my first mar riage." Draw It mild." Hs waa thankful the compartment was nearly dark so that she couldn't see his expres sion. I mean It I've learned the mis takes to avoid. I'm trained to be a wife. I wasn't when you first asked me." A flock ot retorta winged across his mind. "But I'm not trained to be a hus band, Santa." "Everything's happened for the best" shs urged; "In the only best way It could have happened. All the faults weren't on Dlcky'a side. I was unyielding. I'm not any longer. You havs Dicky to thank." You'U never catch me thanking him." "Then you'll at least acknowledge that without intending to, he taught me to realise your value?" "If that's the case, I wish you'd found some other way to learn my value." She laughed, her Hps all but touching hla. Her laughter waa startling, bubbling trom the dark ness without warning. "I'm so free so bappy. The hap piness has gone to my head. I was la prison. Despairing. Then a key turning and you." He was conscience-stricken. "Poor angel!" "I'm not poor." She claaped him strangllngly. "We're both rich." Later, across the table in the dining-car, she beamed at him. "Isn't it marvelous how we can say absolutely anything?" He crumbed his bread. "I guess you thought I'd got cold feet" "Didn't," ahe contradicted. "I thought that I'd had practice and you hadn't" "Like learning to ride a bicycle?" He appealed to her superior wis dom. "But look here, Santa, aqn't let's try to be too marvelous." , "Certainly not" She pulled a monkey face. "This Is the last time we'll refer to Dicky. We've been placing flowers on the grave ot the dear departed." Cllve grinned whimsically, rcifrtii im.int, ci Ssnis wins battle, tomorrow, that haa an Important bearing on hoi futuro haoalnoia.
