POTE EIGHT MEDFORD M2lHJ TRIBUNE,' MEDFORD, : OREGON", 1IONDAT,' NOVEMBER T; 1932. A PATH T EM BTNOP8IB? The wreakaae of Banta'e first dieaetroue marriage to Dicky Dak had scarcely been cleared away in the Chicago di vorce aourt before ehe and her girlhood sweetheart Olive Doncae ter are married and take the train lor Hew York. Juet ae the image of the lilted Ulive had hung over her marriage with the rotter Vicky, eo Dicky's image is in Santa's and dive's mind niw. Banta hoe marriage experience Ciive ha none. Cbaptar 18 THB MONEY QUE8TION laJEXT morning th world teemed radiant The only change waa the wanner eonfldenca with which they faced each other serosa the braakfaat-table. Their tenderneea made them bold; they didn't care who gueaeed that they were newly Wedded. "Just yon and I Isn't It tun?" Santa dimpled. "I'll aay U'c fun. But bai It oo enrred to you, Mrs. Doncaater, that we'll be in New York within the next few houraT I can't take you to my bachelor quarters. We'll have to perch In a hotel till we've found an apartment. Before we more In, we'll have to purchase furniture." That'a easy." She corrected her loveliness in a pocket-mirror. "We'll order my furniture to be forwarded from Chicago." ''And alt on ohalra on which he at?" "But beloved dumb-bell, why waata money? I aat on them, too. They were weddlng-preaenta." "We promised never to mention hla name." Cllve lowered hla voice. "Von and I received no weddlng preaenta. I couldn't live with you In ' hla aettlng. It wouldn't be well, It wouldn't be decent. It would mean eating oft the aame platea, nslng the am knives and forka." "Don't you think you're bit aqueamlsh?" ah coaxed him. "To replace the things I've left In stor age would cost I haven't an Idea bow much. At any rate a amall for itune.".. Tm not proposing to replace them. Now waa the time to take the bull by the horns. "We'll accu mulate aa we go along. We'll start Imply. Which brlnga me to fi nances." 'You are a Joke," aha twitted him. My income," he ploughed on, ''doesn't run to antiques and Crown Derby." "Who caret!" 8ba stuck out the tip of her pink tongue. "I didn't marry yon to be a gold-digger. With what Grandfather Summers aettled on me and Daddy'a allowance for pin-money, I have the best part of twenty thousand. Since yesterday lfa oura." Clive'a face fell. "We abould have had this talk earlier. I'm afraid you'll be disap pointed. For a year'a work I only earn a quarter of what you receive for nothing." "Only five thousand!" Aerosa the table aha stroked hla band sympa thetically. "How old Cleasby grinds you!" "He doesn't There aren't many fellows of my age" ''You're clever." She glowed on him. "Well be all right with me helping. Why spoil a perfectly good marriage morning I" "Because, you adorable absurdity, I happen to be honorable. I married yon to support you." "Aa though you fieeded to tell me. But let'a postpone banking till our honeymoon's ended." He stared at bet, - "Sorry. Santa." ' "What's the nt-k misery!" "The only honeymoon I ean af ford la this trip from Chicago." "0, I seel" Quite evidently till that moment she hadn't "The more reason for enjoying every moment of IL" He waa shaken by intensity. "You're aa generoua aa you're aweet So if you any, 'Let's be Im practical' " She ruffled bla hair. "Let'a." That afternoon when they landed In New York she waa the one who displayed the hotter judgment ' "You can see me aa far aa the hotel. While I'm unpacking, you're going to report baik at the office." He objected that the day waa nearly over that he would And nothing to do at the office. "You took French leave," abe In sisted. "You mustn't postpone a seo- ond In racking jour peace with your bread and butter." The moment he had signed "Mr. and Mrs. Doncaater" on the register ahe hustled him oft. In the room to which ah waa ahown, having changed Into a negli gee, ahe threw herself on the bed, TELEPHONE IAX LARGEST OF DAY Taxpayers of Jackson county ap peared In fairly large numbers Sat urday to pay their taxes. Friday the total payments amounted to 1 38,030 a chiefly from small payments. The pacific Telephone and Telegraph com pany remitted a check for 7007, the largest for the day. The payment to data have been slightly better than In the spring payment, and the previous years of the present unsettled economic con ditions. Included In the tax pay ment were a number for back years. Saturday wu the final day for the payment of the last half taxea. Hole after they will be subject to Interest and deUmienJ!

A huaband revealed exactly what ha waa going to be within the first twenty-four hours. Cllve would require managing. though In a totally different fashion from the way ahe'd managed Dicky. She'd have to mind her p'a and q'a; his awkwardness waa that he waa over-scrupulous. Hla attitude to ward poasesslona Inherited from her first marriage waa ridiculous, aa waa hla Idea that their scale of liv ing must be kept within the limits of hia Income. Very dear of blm to be so anxious to pay for everything! Unfortunate ly ahe'd been accustomed to more luxuries than he could afford. And then ahe longed to do things for him. The first glimpse of her dress makers' bill would cure hla Inde pendence. Her thoughta turned to the more urgent topic of her parents. Should she telephone them? Shame pre vented. Not her shame theirs. She'd re-marrled for love to please nobody but herself. She couldn't expect them to credit her with lofty motives. Divorced a week ago and married again! To them her second mar riage after ao short a lapse of time, would seem Indelicate. It would aeem indecently experimental to moat people aa though aha were the kind of girl who coulda't get along without a man; to whom any man waa acceptable. Meanwlilie Ciite, apeedlng down town In a taxi, waa facing hla own problem. What to aay to Mr. Cleas by? He'd breezed oft wlthdut a word. The only satisfactory apolo gy would be an explanation of the compelling circumstances. After the customary formalities he waa ushered Into his employer'a den. Mr. Cleasby pushed back hla chair and eyed him over the top of hla spectacles. "I've behaved badly," Cllva fore atalled reproaches. "The reason were exceptional. I've been away getting married." "Marriage Isn't exceptional." The old man spoke grimly. Cllve repeated for Mr. Cleasby the story of bla continuing love for Santa, bla discouragement when aha married Dicky, the tragedy of that failure. . "Then she's a widow?" Cllva shook his head. "On my return from Europe t dis covered that aha waa considering a divorce. That waa why, against your wishes, I waa ao strong for re maining In America. "Two weeka ago I learned that ahe waa on the point of going back to him. She waa In a panic He'd ahown signs of wanting her at a crista when ahe waa persuaded that no one ever again would want her. He would only have dragged her down. To prevent that I proved to her that I wanted her." "This mania tor rescuing forlorn maldena," he smiled crookedly, "we've all had It It reads very ro mantically. Unfortunately knight erranta are out-of-date. This la the day of enlightened selfishness. I presume you looked ahead to what will be said?" "I'm not aure that I care." "You will It not for your own sake, for hers. She's - young, I gather." "The loveliest girl In the world. Mr. Cleaaby looked away at the barricaded sky-line, toothed and oruel aa publto opinion. ' "They all are," be chuckled. "If they're not now, they were." He turned. "To protect her will require all your patience." "I'm prepared for that" Cllva rose. "By the way, air, la there any chince of my being aent to Europe? Tblnga would be easier In an en vironment where no one knew that thla wasn't my wife's Drat mar riage." "I'm afraid not" Mr. Cleaaby accompanied him to the door. At parting be grasped bla band. "Too bad things should have hap pened thla way. I'm aorry," What waa there to be aorry about? The Boring evening waa gild ing the grey length of lower Broad way. Cllve Hushed wltb resentment To be aorry for blm was a reflection on Santa. He had hoped to hear himself congratulated. But the old were always envlona of the young, Mr, Cleasby waa a bachelor. He mistrusted risks that he bad never taken. Plunging Into a florist's on the point of cloalng, be departed with a box the site of a young coma. ICiHrllU lIShlM, Ct.l..k, Dewiee) Cllvt and ftanta meet a friend, Monday, and gat a shock. KLAMATH IN FAVOR OF CLOSING ROGUE P. O. Blgham, well-known local sportsman, has returned to the city from Klamath Falls, bringing optl mlatlo news regarding the Rogue river ecalng bill.
