SANTA GET8 A THRILL
IN THE library across the ball,
wiUcii wa Utile Dausr luau au
alcove, Cllva raised tbe flap oil the
desk and apread oil papera. The
earnest murmur of voices pursued
him. Wnat on earth could Sauta
and Dicky lind to talk about?
Ue listened. Worda were Indis
tinguishable. Brittle laughter!
Across the years the peculiar pitch
of that laugh roused memories. It
was Santa's hunting cry. She had
Invariably employed It in her flap
per days when ahe waa luring a
fresh victim to tbe slaughter. Con
versation droned again. Heavens,
why be jealous! It waa aa much his
fault aa here that ahe 'waa stuck
there alone with Dak.
Meanwhile Santa was experienc
ing a new thrill In conducting a
tete-a-tete with this forbidden man.
Ue had known her every heart
throb. It waa curious to reflect thai
the had given herself to him to the
strains of priestly music.
Now to show him courtesy bor
dered on liaison. Pulses of emotion
were stirring. She gated at him
with wtstfulneas, her lips saying
one thing, her brain dramatizing
another.
A pause occurred.
"It Is to laugh," he ventured.
"Howl"
"These hands that once caressed
yon."
"Dicky, be sane or I'll throw you
put"
He sighed sentimentally.
"So many things to remind me.
You. Myself. The furniture. Only
the room la different."
"ily husband la different.
'Don't yoa ever regret, Santa?"
''Not noticeably."
"I do."
"Don't believe you. I'm not the
least bit Interested."
He bent forward.
"That's not true. You're having
the time of your young life. If I'd
been a former bean you'd be Inter
ested; whereas you and 1 vowed
ourselves to become one flesh. We'll
remain a part of each other as long
as we remain above ground."
' Hla blue eyes pierced, explored,
exposed her. She could summon
Cllva. It seemed wiser to handle
the-situation without hla help.
Lighting a cigarette, she became
the composed young woman of
fashion-plates. ;
"You're an idiot," ahe blew a puff
of smoke.
"Don't 1 mean anything?"
. "No more than last year's frock."
Flinging hla bands abroad, In a
superlatively foreign gesture, Dicky
relaxed.
"So the rose euil baa thorns I
You're the kind of woman who
never ought to have married. 1 won

"Ask him," Banta suggested.
"No, 1 wouldn't rob him of his
pathetlo faith In you. You'll do
that"
"Why to certain?"
She gaped as though he were
orystal-gaser. She hadn't the least
respect for any of his opinions, yet
hla pretensions to be able to read
her fortune fascinated.
"Because you're no mystery to
me, my dear."
She was startled to bear him em
ploy that familiar form of address.
It gave her the sensation that she
was back In Chicago.
"Yoa see. I lived with yon, quar
relled with you, loved you for a
year," he continued. "It waa the
quarrelling that taught me so much.
To pretend that we bave retlcen
eles Is lunacy, I know you from
every angle."
"Then let's scrap retloenclee."
She flicked ber ash. "Portrait of

"I'm not vindictive." He hesi
tated. "Tbat'a all right You're going to

yon everything, just as I'm fooling
myself that I lire Cllve everything.

"You are. If yon weren't, yon

"How do yon know?" She strove
to keep her tone Inconsequential.
"Can you bear the truth? Yon

RALLY SUNDAY
The Southern Oregon Baptist Young
People's association will hold their
quarterly rally at Aahland, Sunday.
December 4, at 3:90. This assocla
tlnn Includes the D. Y. P. U. groups
of the Baptist churches or Grartta
Paaa, Aahland, Medford and Klamath
Palla.
The meeting planned this time ta
very unique and entirely different
from any previous ones.
Dr. Hasan, better known to the
young people aa "Daddy" Hagan,
state director of the B. Y. P. U. work,
will be present.
All membera are urged to attend
and to be at the church promptly at
1 :30. Alio all persona havlug care
.urged, ie hlng bam.
between me and your present has
band a bond of sympathy waa al
most Instantly established. You ex
plained It on dive's side when you
said he was sorry for me. I fell for
him for precisely tbe same reason.
But wby should we feel sorry (or
each other?"
"I'm not as dumb aa all that," she
smiled. "You're both had me for
a wife."
"Quite so. It you were to remarry
a hundred times, you couldn't
change your personality. You've a
man's brain In a woman'a body.
Somewhere deep in your subcon
sciousness you resent not having
been born a man. You refuse to
follow. You're uncooperative. You
disguise your high-handedness by
attributing unselfish motives. You're
always attempting to remold your
husband of tbe moment to the more
perfect Image of yourself.
"It I'm as horrid aa all that, how
did I attract you?"
"Ah I" He rubbed his bands. "Your
feminine body conquera your mas
culine brain on occasions, it fakes
sex appeal, playa the kitten, drives
men crazy. You're only disappoint
ing to the particular man who owns
you."
"Poor Dlckyl You would say
that"
"Yoa think I'm decrying your
values because I've lost you. On
the contrary, 1 treasure two exqui
site memories: tbe night yon ac
cepted me and the day you divorced
me. Tbe kindest of these was "
"You spoke Just now," she Inter
rupted, "of wires being disappoint
ing. It's a foolish question. You've
done nothing but Ill-wish me. In
your opinion, from the little you've
seen of Cllve " She lowered her
voice and Jerked her head In tbe
direction of the library. "Do yon
consider tbat he's disappointed?"
"Santa!" He assumed an expres
sion of shocked dignity.
"But you're been discussing Cliva
all evening. You've hinted and im
plied." Cllve entered.
"Hello, Dak! Thought you'd
gone. It'a stopped raining."
Dicky looked up mildly.
"We got Into an argument We
always did. It's been quite like old
times. I've been maintaining that
the modern girl Is unmarrigeable."
Cllve approached his wife.
"Here's one who isn't"
Aa his arm slipped about her,
Santa became normal.
"Dicky's bitter."
When tbe door had closed behind
their guest, Cllve drew her into the
library,
"That cbap'a haunted."
Later, in bed, Santa demanded,
"How haunted?"
"By you."
"Well, 1 think he's horrid. Keet
him away from me. I'm ashamed
that I was aver married to him."
"Of course you are. But I'm
tired.,"
Kissing her, be turned his back.
Having waited till he waa asleep,
she placed ber arm about him and
lay wondering whether It waa true
tbat she waa the sort of women who
never ought to bave married.
Next morning, partly to disguise
her state of mind, partly to test
Cllve'a tenderness, she feigned a
headache.
"Darlinjr, oughtn't I to call a doc
tor?" "It's nothing, Cllve."
"But beaps of diseases start with
headaches."
"It'a nerves, Cllve. That discus
sion about whether 1 should learn
typewriting and then about moving
to tbe country didn't help matters."
"I was a brute, darling. Try some
aspirin and a cold park on your
forehead."
After he'd pulled down the blinds
and left for business, she sat up
rumpling her hair.
"Road to beaven, you're a faker,
but he still carea tor you."
What a simpleton abed been to
listen to Dicky! One prophesies
the thing he desires. He wanted her
marriage to Cllve to be a failure. It
would restore bis self-esteem. Cllve
had been right: It bad been a mis
take to re-cultivate a divorced hus
band. Tbe day she bad taken Cllve
sbe should bave burned her boata
behind ber.
Sbe would burn them now. De
termination galvanised her. By tbe
time Cllve returned tbat evening,
the situation which hr tactlessness
had created should be terminated.
Having rested, sbe telephoned
Dicky.
A carefully trained, cautiously
modulated voice replied.
"Mr. Dak la engaged. Any mes

"But I hare to speak with him.
Please tell him tbat Santa la on tbe

An Interesting tale of a learned
owl, a homed one, too, was told by
E. W. Carlton, orchardist, here this
morning. The owl was discovered a
few weeke age on a rather undigni
fied position, his wing caught In the
tying wire near a transformer on the
power line near the home of the
Misses Carlton on the Old Stage road.
Mr. Carlton and a neighbor, who
saw him there, endeavored to remove
blm from the trap with a pole, but
bla wing, through his efforts to free
himself, had become too tangled In
the wire. They telephoned the Cali
fornia Oregon Power company office
and asked If anyone would be Inter
ested In rescuing an owl. The an
swer wss "yes." A lineman soon ar
rived and with heavy gloves for pro
tection, took the owl from the wlrea.
By way of expressing his gratitude,
the bird pecked him with a very
strong bill which all but penetrated
the lnsulsted gloves, then dropped to
the ground. His wing was appar
ently broken and a move to end his
misery with a shotgun wss started,
but the two men who discovered him
objected.
He waa snared and taken to tbe

NEW CENTRAL PT.
CHEESE FACTORY
(Continued from Page One)
Is, however, anxious to buy aa much
milk aa possible in the surrounding
territory.
Milk from a total of 1,600 cows la
now assured, O. M. Churchill, man
ager of the plant, aald today. This
quantity Is expected to be Increased
aa rapidly aa dairymen wish to dis
pose or mlllk to the new concern
until a figure has been reached much
larger than the present total. Fa
cilities of the plant, when In oom
plete operation, will make possible
the use of 50,000 gallons or milk
dally.
Milk Required
Milk producers are urged by Mr.
Churchill, manager, to see blm as
early as possible at the Central Point
plant If Interested In disposing of
milk to Vie cheese factory.
With market conditions paving the
way, the plant win no In operation
continuously, eliminating the possi
bility of seasonal milk demands. Milk
from small herds will be as readily
solicited as that from large ones In
an effort to bring about as large a
supply as possible. A number of
valley land owner have announced
Intentions of adding eowa to their
holdings to supply cheese factory de
mands. Plan Added Units
If sufficient milk can be obtained
to operate the Central Point factory
at a good capacity, present plana
call for the establishment of addi
tional plants in tbe valley, with one
probably located in the southern part
and the other In the northern.
Cheese from the new plant will be
marketed under the trade name of
"Rogue River," and will also be sold
on the local market, .although the
main bulk will be made for out of
state consumption. It la possible af
ter cheese manufacture la entirely
under way, the plant will also en
gage In butter making, Ice cream and
other dairy products.
' Cannery Also Planned
Also of great Importance to the
valley are plans of the company to
eatabllsh a cannery next year on
property adjoining the cheese plant
The cannery will provide a market
for a large amount of fruit and veg
etables and will be housed In even
a larger building than the cheese
unit, whlcr. Itself, covers several
thousand square feet of floor space
in a modern concrete . tile building.
Plana for the establishment of the
Central Point factory had been un
der conalderatlon for some time, aa
a result of success of the four other
plants already In operation. It Is
the plan of the company to co-operate
In every respect with milk pro
ducers of Jackson county, encourag
ing the development of the dairy In
dustry to a point yet unreached. The
company has the market. The mar
ket Is anxious for more cheese. The
compsny la eager for a big milk sup
