PAGE SIX 8YKOPS18: Ouy Wemturn hu rescued the wealthy Alteon Red from a very nasty predicament . and restored her to her worried fa ther. There are a few unexplained things about Guy, however; Ali son also is somewhat worried be cause her father is remarrying With Ouy, Alison it) lunohina at e London restaurant; the telle htm she really wants a job, preferable one in which eh earn help penpji who need help. Chapter H DAPHNE 'OU were going to Bar that you could show m real poTerty. That's exactly what I want to aik you could you?" He had opened hta mouth to reply but she hurried on. "Watt. I'll explain. I mean I really want a job." -A Job?" "Yes! And If 1 go and ask anyone I know, anyone of the kind of friends I've been brought up with, they'll just laugh and talk about manne quins or offer to let me help them run a hat shop or something. I don't want that kind of Job!" "I wonder if you really mean what you are saying!" "I do!" She was eagerly In earnest now. "I don't mean a paid job; that wouldn't be fair. I're enough money to live on and more than 1 want coming. Jobs are too precious to waste on people who're got money But it must be possible to find some thing useful to do, something that wouldn't be robbing anyone and would be worth doing?" "I should think so," he admlttd It reluctantly. "Could you help me to find HV He said bluntly, "You'r too young." Alison was hurt. "Why do you ay that?" "Because It's true. The kind of thing you want to do needs two things, training and sympathy. They both take time to acquire." "You don't think I'd sympathize with people who were badly off?" She could not keep her disappoint ment out of her tone. "I think you'd try to." He was gen tle all of a sudden. "But It's not the fairy godmother stuff that people coed. It's understanding. Friendli ness. And that's the result of expe rience, you know." "Then I'll get some, that's all!" He said auddenly, "D'you know, I believe you would! When I met you, first, I thought that you were the other kind." He was hesitating now, awkwardly. "The kind of girl who's got everything she wants and doesn't worry about those others. ' But now " "Will you help me? "I'm not sure If I can. It depends." "What on?" "The the business I was talking about juBt now. As I told you, I'm starting all over again, or rather I'm going to try to; but first I've a rather atlcky job to settle." "You mean, building something?" "No," he added slowly. "Just a rather difficult job. Until that's through, I a n't do anything very much for anybody. If It goes all right, well then I might be able to help." "It's good of you," said Alison gratefully. "You know, even to talk like this Is a help. My friends 1 mean of my own age wouldn't un derstand It a bit They'd tell me to do two nights a week at a mission or something and that's not what 1 want. But you do understand. "I think I do." "It's funny, Isn't It?" said Alison. "You mean, that as far aa time goes wo've only met for a few hours?" M7ES." She was silent, brooding on the wonder of It. He was looking at her absorbedly but she did not notice. "Why Is It like that sometimes, just with some people?" "Skipping the first stages?" "Yes!" She smiled at him delight edly. "As If you'd met before, you know, and were just picking up thrends." "Or as If It was fate." He said that i In Buch a low voice that she barely caught the words. "Yes." She went on eagerly, "You know, 1 felt I could talk to you and that you'd understand, even when we were going through the house. I moan, I wouldn't have dared to tell most people that I'd thought I'd seen a ghost. They'd have laughed at me You didn't." "Why should 1 laugh? I knew you weren't the sort of person that talks about ghosts unless you'd seen some thing pretty bad. He was quite post tlve. "I know. I felt that. I mean, that you knew that I wouldn't just make !t all up." "I knew you were pretty badly scared, and that It'd take a lot to rare you." he explained. STATE'S BOOKS DRIED 8 .M.EM.

"Our minds lit, that's all. Alison nodded. In the silence thai fell between them she considered that. It was true; she had known that their minds fitted, had felt It from the first She dwelt on the fact happily, looking up found his eyes on her face. Suddenly, almost violently, he changed the subject. "Tell me about your stepmother. You haven't met her yet?" "No." Alison recounted what she knew. He listened with Interest, nodding, shooting a quick side glance at her, then frowning. Asked at last, "Has your father known her . long?" "No. Only a few weeks, I think. They met when he was In the South, of France." Whereabouts was he?" Ouyi aiked that bo anxiously that Allsom was surprised. I don't know. Why do you ask?": She could not repress her curiosity. No particular reason. I I Just wondered." Excuse me, sir, will you be want ing anything else? Sweets, coffee?" They both looked up, aware sud denly that the waiter had spoken before, that he was standing there patiently holding out the menu card while two platefuls of congealing food lay on the table untouched and the other tables were already empty! GOOD HEAVENS! Look at the time!" Alison started up. "I'm supposed to be at my dentist at half past two!" "But you haven't eaten a thing!" He was contrite now. "You must have some lunch. It's bad for you not to. Besides, If you're got to face a dentist! Walter-?" "No, I don't want It, honestly.' Alison stopped him. "I've masses to do and I mustn't be late for Daphne. m not a bit hungry. Get him to call me a taxi." Ouy gave the order. On the pave ment, helping her Into the taxi, he said, "Look here, we must meet again." We must," she agreed. "Father wondered If by any chance you'd care to hare lunch with us tomor row?" Thanks. I'd love to." He had taken her hand, held It In a hard grip. "What time?" "One o'clock." In the taxi, Alison sat with her right hand held up against her cheek, as If that fierce hand grip still hurt. It was just tea-time when she got home, followed by an armful of parcels, and with a heady sense of freedom, the dnllghtful feeling that she was done for ever with schools and that London waa a gay place and that life had really begun. She pulled off her little soft hat, ruffled up her curls and ran up to the drawing room to pour out her father's tea, as she always did when she was at home. She had opened the door when, remembering, she stopped shyly. Her father was In hts accustomed chair by the tea-table but, on the other side, In her owp place, sat a woman. Ah!" Robert Rede looked round smiling. "Here you are! Well. Daphne, here'B my little girl not such a very little girl, you see!" Clever sophisticated hard ! That waa the first Impression which flashed through Alison's mind as she advanced slowly to greet the woman who would be her step mother. A bony, sallow face, a pair of lustreless dark eyes which veiled the thoughts behind them, a mouth that had no kindness In Its curves. graceful figure, a big nose and thlrk black hair so much Nature had given Daphne Sumers, The rest was sheer art A bold, a daring hand, had chosen to emphasise deliberately the close sot eyes, the high cheek bones and arched nose; by a touch of dark rouge, plucked eyebrows, a magenta lipstick, the way the dull black hair had been drawn hack off a high nar row forehead and Its ends piled up and up Into a mass of very tiny curls, even the red and black dress that she wore, all served to lend a touch of mystery to a gipsy's face. Twenty thirty forty? Even now that she had seen her Alison did not know the answer. Sha only knew that she felt an Intense repulsion to those hard eyes. She held out her hand, trying hard to Instil warmth Into her smile. "My dear!" (Copyright, itSI, Kvthn hi.

AO IS OPEN 10 The road to Cinnabar Mineral I Springs is now open all the way to the resort, according to A. Robinson resort manager. Although It Is usual for the resort road to be anowed over until late in June or early in Julr, a mild winter has left the highway In good condition this year. The springs are well known In southern Oregon and northern Cali fornia, for their medicinal qualities Over 75 years ago, while packing froii Jacksonville to Yreka on the old pack trail, a prospector discovered thi springs. For years there were no camping facilities at the site, and no good roads, but all that has changed, To get to the springs, one miut drive down the Pacific highway to the Klamath River highway, about eight miles north of Yreka, turn to the right and drive another eight mil- to Beaver Creek, and signs from tht tiny hamlet lead one the next 10 miles to the springs, where cabin and camping facilities are available.

May 30. fAPl Clouds hanging over the strike gripped Pacific northwest lumber in dustry today gave promise of dis persing before an evident willingness of employers and employes to break the deadlock. Conferences were arranged or were being considered all along the front and in some Instances agreement be tween the strikers and smaller oper ators were reputed to have been ac complished. A decision of the Oregon concilia tion board at Portland to mark time for a few days before Initiating a new move strengthened a prevailing belief there would be developments ending, at least In part, the strike which sent 40,000 men from their Jobs. A. J. Dwyer of the Southeast Port land Lumber company Informed the Oregon board he would be willing to meet the wage scale of other opera tors and assume a risk of recouping an immediate loss later. Dwyer's plant, he said, was paying 46 cents an hour, 2' cents above the code minimum when the strike closed It. 1 Year fur Stealing J.ot-oinotive WELCH. W. Va.
