BEDFORD MAIL TRIBTOE, MEDFORI). OREGON', WEDNESDAY, JtTLT 25. 1931 PAGE EIGHT SPITE MMSKSM3& SYNOPSIS: Uaraha If our tail! her rector about her oroblem, which la that, although eh U madly n love with Bob Poteen nu, ehe married him in the first viae be cause aha believed Geoffrey Torla ton had married another girl and ilaraha had thought Geoff the ideal mate tor heraelf. The rector telle her to go on in alienee, and Uareha does. But ehe feele a ellaht con etralnt In Bob'e attitude t-'d Chapter 19 UNWELCOME CALLER tTTELL, the b4 turned over ser eral new pages, Martha thought. She rose; he too rose, but unwill ingly. "Ella summon! us; she's wig wagging from a window. Dinner, I uppoae." They were both very happy that sight at dinner, they each remem bered later, and bitterly. The rogue etorm-clouds whlcb had muted jotber hours did not appear. They were as close aa they had ever been, with a realization now of What closeness meant. "Great dinner, yon dear thing!" jfce aald; and with absurd Intensity; 'then, "Good heavens. I'm happy!" Ah, she realized, she loved him, loved him I And he loved her beat when he did not know quite bow 'much she loved him. Why did she. .well Inured to the world and Ita twounding waya, expect perfection? But she did; she cried tor It, Inside. His eyes, quick to note change In :her made him say, "Headache?" "No," she assured blm. "Yon looked a little done-ln Just then. You're certain?" He was almost too gentle with her when be felt she suffered In any way. It thawed ber. "I'll tell you about It aome day," he promised, "some day when you are bored. I believe confessions nil gaps admirably. Betty Forsythe concocts tbe most amazing tale. Ehe aays her husband sleeps, other wise, and that aha would rather lis ten to bis shocked remopstrances than to his syncopated snores. Per haps I'll come to that!" "OC'D better not!" be answered. "I suppose I'm a fogy, but I hat that sort of thing. Bad enough for a man to bleat out a lot of repentant f uff." "But If a woman baa It to bleat? And aome secret that keeps both ering ber by bobbing up from, well say a tall past like mine?" He smiled. "I wonder how many men did care for you?" ha questioned Idly. "Ever count 'em? Heavens, when I thlnkl Lucky tor me you didn't care enough tor any one of them." He reached for a mint, and after a nib bis. complained. "Stale," he said, "where did you get them? Don't you think they're stale?" - Marsha sampled the condemned, considered carefully, and then said be thought the mints were stale. And she looked all the evening as If lbs had a headache. Walking In the pale tbln sunlight the next morning, Marsha looked op and over the low, atone wall. A motor, which bad been purring up the lane, had coma to a standstill. Quiet baa Its own arreatlng quail ty; often it Is more ominous than tbe londost din. It was the quiet that made Marsha turn In the path; and It was Geoffrey Tarleton's quiet that led ber to say, "Why, Oeoffl What are you doing here?" He answered with "Happened along." "Wonderful!" she said In the way she felt to he school-girlishly en thusiastic "Won't you come In? Bob Is In the village, I believe." "Well. In such case I might," Geoffrey responded, aa be raised his brows and smiled. . "I meant he'll be sorry to miss you. "Ob, 1 see. How do I reach your delectable retreat? Ladder or air plane? Oh, gates; I aee. A bit along. Isn't It?" "Better park In front." she called. "tbe tradesmen come rushing around the corner and never seem to think" The rest of her warning was absorbed In the sound of chang ing gears. She frowned aa she turned to pace toward the lower end of the garden. She wished Geoff had not come . . . Geoff who smiled at her and with his smile made her feel an Idiot; Geoff, who awoka ques tion In her. Among them a wonder about whether she wasn't drugged. CHE walked tbe length of the path l' three tlmea, and amlled toler antly over Geoff's method, which was to heighten Interest with sus pense. How they understood each "ah age for rterdr.

Rather a relief that; not hav ing to play up. Ehe stepped In the shelter of a tiny arbor to light a clgaret. Her banda were ahaklng. She surveyed ber own tremors quizzically and with some scorn. She knew what made them, Geoff did not; Geoff's knowing her so entirely, and forc ing her old real self upon herself, did. If, she reflected, Bob knew ber and still cared But those things didn't happen, except perbapa In heaven or In hooka. Ehe heard the crunch of gravel under a leisured step and did not turn. "Well, Princess?" she heard, in Geoffrey's bantering tone, "Well, Geoff?" "How la It going?" "Beautifully!" "God!" (He laughed after be spoke.) "To think that I ebould live to see thla day! How did be do It?" "Really you don't want a descrip tion" she questioned. His eyes narrowed. "No," he an swered, "I think I don't." Again ha fa) 5-1 . 1'- "To think that I should live to see this day!" laughed, and thla time a sneer waa caught and held In tbe aound. "Have luncheon with us?" she asked. He bowed with an Ironical court liness. His drawled "Charmed." ci rled on the effoct he wished to pro duce. Maraha, pretending she did not notice Geoffrey's threatening upset, spread out her pretty hand, palm upward, and turned ber face to tbe sky. "You'd bettor." she said care lessly. "1 think It's going to snow." Without speaking he followed her to the house. After he had gone up the absurd little stairs to brush from himself the traces of motoring, and had, In a tiny chintz-decorated bedroom, used a military brush tbat elbowed Marsha's rose-enamel and silver bu reau things, he made his way down again and turned to the living room, where a driftwood Are burned brightly. Marsha was off somewhere. Prob ably changing ber frock, be decid ed, to something a bit mora daring than the one she laid away; to something that would "knock an eya out." He sat planning. tCettriiH. 1I4. . K. Siln4-Teyler) Tomorrow, Marsha's skies fill. "Cranes" and "Antelopes" Med THOMAS.

Preparations for this event have been Intensively carried on covering a period of several months. Most of the orders were placed with manufac turers aa early as last March. These orders were so tremendous that 67 factories have been kept busy since then turning out furniture especially for this event. Ward officials say that a single purchase of a carload proportion Is a common thing in supplying quantities to meet the de mand which has been built up in this extraordinary sale. The general tendency In depres sion days the last few years has been to curtail buying of home furnish ings. This curtailment has been lift ed to the extent that Wards feel that thousands of families believe now la the time to buy new furniture and all that goes with new furniture to make their homes more attractive. Jt la that urge to beautify the home and make It more comfortable as well as the extraordinary prepar ation advantages that Wards have made, which leads O. D. Bean, man ager of the local Ward store to be lieve that this August will wltnesa one of the greatest furniture buying demonstrations that America has witnessed tn many years.

Van Winkle held in an opinion today. Receipt of letters from- a Portland attorney claiming that the license revocation would not be effective aa long aa tbe case wa on appeal In the higher court, prompted the re quest for the opinion, by P, J, Slid elman, secretary of state. OF Word has Just been received by local officials of the California, Ore gon Power company that In response to pouplar demand another carload of special Westlnghouse automatic electric ranges has Just been pur chased from the factory. When this big range offer was first advertised In the newspapers a short time ego the response exceeded all expecta tions and the entire shipment was completely sold out In a few days. The California Oregon Power com pany Immediately wired the West lnghouse factory for another carload and It Is now on the way. Many of theoe ranges are already sold and Io cs! residents are advised that any additional orders will have to be placed at once, as a policy of first come, first served, will have to pre vail. This Is said to be the first time a fully automatic, completely equip ped electric range haa ever been of fered to the public at such a, re markably low price and on such easy terms. After present stocks are sold out, the offer will be withdrawn, as thla purchase was a factory cloee-out order and no more of these ranges will be available. CTse Mail Tribune want ads.
