AS FARRELL drove up to tb
" Vicarage nate be av? first the
gleaming smoothness of Leila Cane,
toon, behind her, the vicar's bent,
black figure.
"Hullo, Vicar!" he said sheepishly.
Just like this, with this same tran
quillity, had the old man waited tor
blm In childhood's days: and never
had the returning truant been able
to guess whether the quiet would
deepen or disappear while a switch
iras cut tom a nearby blrcb tree.
"This young woman" the vicar
Indicated Leila "wants to dodge
paying her tare to London."
"Sure she doesn't want the plea
cure ot my company, sir?"
"I want both. Farrell."
As Leila turned to lift a dressing
case from the low stone wall, the old

man and the young looked Intently at
each other.
"Everything's all right, sir, hon
estly." "I'm very glad to know It, my
dear boy." .
Leila hoisted herself and her lug
gage aboard and waved a band east
wards. "Speed thither," she entreated.
"By now father may have managed
to spell out the note 1 left pinned to
the dining room clock."
Leila's roraark was lost In the
growing hum ot the engine. The
vicar touched Armltago'a shoulder
and then, as Armltage bared his
head leaned forward and lightly
kissed bis forehead.
It larrod Farrell whon Leila
laughed.
"He's still looking after us. I
really rather adore him."
"I didn't know you ever went to
ee him."
"I UBed not to but he was decent,
once; and ever since I've sort ot
hung about"
Armltage welcomed the necessity
for keeping bis conscious attention
on the road. At tbe back ot his brain
shimmered a picture; a portrait of
an emerald set in platinum, of
frightened eyes, ot bait-bare, ball
veiled allure. He remembered that
he had the emerald In his pocket If
he knew I
"You're touching eighty," came In
Leila's cool tones. "And Toxeter is
round the next bend."
Yes, the portrait must be forgot
ten. After all, one often stumbled
on something In another man's lite
and one shoved it out of the sons or
contemplation and attended punc
tiliously to one's own business In
stead. , . ,
He was unable to guoss what time
had elapsed when Leila's voice pene
trated his exaltation.
"Where and when are we feeding?
Here's 'The County Hotel.'"
"We aren't feeding at all." ex
plained Armltage with candor
"When I'm la a hurry 1 don't stop
for meals. 1 vaut to be in Town by
ten; 1 wired a man to see me at
Brandish Place at half-past"
"Then you'd better get me a double

. PLAN COMPLETE
Barbara
When iie brought her out her
lunch, he was sure she sensed an un
usual constraint In him. It was with
a touch ot nervousness that she in
formed him
'The vicar says that Barbara and
Mark are going to be married at
nine o'clock on Thursday morning
Instead ot twelve. What shall you
do about It?"
"1 shan't do anything about It.
Barbara Isn't marrying anyone on
Thursday, at any time. I thought
I'd told you so."
"You're fed up with me about
something, Farrell Armltage. Rath
er lend me the money to go by
train?"
He was silent He took her empty
glass and went back with It, paid
the bill, returned to the wheel and
drove away, still without answering
her. She made no furthor comment
upon him or herself and as the miles
swung steadily under them, he be
lieved that she slept.
- They turned Into Brandish Place
at half past ten exactly. With what
ever dreams Leila had beguiled the
hours of the long drive, she kept
them out of her bright, sure glance
as she looked up at the big house
In which both Armltage and his
father had been born.
The Armltage butler, alBO a family
piece and nearly -)s massive as the
house, was displaying the receptive
Intelligence which Armltage got
from all his servants.
"MIbs Cane would like supper.
Tell Michfleld to put the Devalet
away and thon stand by with tbe
Lacblsse. I'll iinvo sandwiches and
coffee up In the billiard-room. A
representative from Malavle's Is
due about now send him up to the
blliiard-room as well."
"No wonder you got rich quick,"
admlrd Leila, outerlng the ball be
side hint, "it I'd tried to be as com
petent as that after driving six
hours, I'd have ended by Bending
sandwiches to the Devalet and play
ing billiards with the man from
Malavlo'f. . . . Aren't you being a
bit previous, by the way? Barbara
won't like this houso, however Mai
avio's re-do it. It's too self-satisfied."
"The bllllard-room is for Mark,"
explained Armltage. He bad taken
up a pile of lottora and was tearing
open the envelopes. "It's to-be tts
studio there'll be a north light you
see. Malavle can do the whole
thing, right duwn to the easel; bat
he'll have to be out of the place by
noon on Thursday. That's why 1
was In a bit of a hurry."
"But" began Leila.
He was still tolerant though per
haps not quite so amused.
"But, easel or no easel. It's exactly
what Mark himself would do to this
house It he could?"
"No." she contradicted. "No, that's
the devil of it He'd do It tat better."
She Jerked away from him and
walked Into the nearest reception
room, where the fire. Just lit was
spurting Into flame. He looked after
her, hesitated, then went on his way
upstairs. 1
He had had a bull-dog once that
had proved very dangerous. A' the
end, he had wrapped a rug round
his left arm and let the brute lake
his bite at It while the right hand
felt for a rovolvor. . . . 8o with
Mark Lodoly. He could amuse him
self with snnpplngs at the left arm.
It he wanted to.

"Reduced taxes would help every
body and particularly the farmer who
Is suffering from low purchasing
power. Another thing that the farmer
needs Is a broader foreign outlet for
his surplus products. The restoration
of his foreign market would enable
him to get better prices for his pro
ducts, hereby Increasing his power to
buy the manufactured products of
American Industry.
Statesmanship Need.
"A reduction In taxes and a broad
ening ot the foreign market for agri
cultural products are things that can
be brought about only through wise
statesmanship. Substantial recovery
in business depends upon sound gov
ernment policy In dealing with these
questions. Unsound government pol
icy would only aggravate a bad situa
tion. "Swift & Co. Is operating at Its nor
mal rate. Our costs are low and our
products are In constant demand. Our
rate of operation Is determined en
tirely by the quantity of livestock
which comes to market, and livestock
receipts seem to be as high In years
of depression as in years of prosperity.
"We hope to have a substantial
Improvement In our results In 1933."

THE

YEAR OF ACTIVITY
ISCLOSE
Numerous interesting events occur
red during the past year at Rogue
River national forest. Including the
changing of the name from Crater
Lake national forest, to avoid con
fusion beween the toreat and the
park.
During the latter part of the year,
30,000 linear feet of Christmas trees
were sold, some of which were ship
ped to Honolulu markets, and others
to Hollywood, San Francisco and Los
Angeles. The majority of sales were
made to San Francisco Christmas
tree dealers.
Shasta fir, which Is commonly
known as silver fir, made up the
majority of shipments, according to
the forest service, as it Is especially
adapted to this use on account of
Its beauty and low commercial value
for lumber manufacture. Trees were
taken from high altitudes through
thinning stands, and were carried by
pack animals for several miles to
the roads.
To give the Crater Lake national
park full control of the area adapted
to national park purposes, two and a
half miles of highway at the south
entrance of thepark was turned over

to the national park by an act of
congress. The area included 902 5
acres. In this section was Anna creek,
one of the more beautiful streams m
that district, bordering timber and
other scenic values.
Another accomplishment during the
past year was the clearing of the
Diamond Lake highway from Union
creek to Diamond lake. A greater
portion of the road was graded, and
six and a half miles was surfaced.
The work is expected to be completed
nert fall, and will cut the traveling
time from Union creek to Diamond
lake by 30 minutes, nccordlng to the
forest officials.
The Diamond Lake-Union Creek
road Is a forest highway, for which
the forest service pays, and Is built
by the bureau of public roads.
The Diamond Lake highway is ex
pected to opfcii up a highly valuable
recreation area which will be devel
oped for public use by the forest serv
ice. The highway follows Rogue
river and makes much of the river
accessible to sportsmen and other
recreatlonlsts. It also makes much
commercial timber accessible for har
vesting, the statement Issued shows.
At Lake o' the Woods, 80 more
summer home lots were surveyed and
made available to the public, as were
about 30 at Union Creek.
Rogue River national forest, or
iginally set aside September 28, 1893,
now has a present net acreage of
819,180 acres.
