PAGE FOURTEEN HEDFOTOD MAIL TRTBUNT!!, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRTDAY. JULY 20. 1935. READY MADE WIF .OY CORALie STANTOM . 8YNOPB1B While Bern Uoor; the airman, ie away on a spectacu lar flight Laurie Uoore ie foolish enough to give an interview to an Australian newspaper man about her "'marriage" to Rex. The truth ie that eho and Rex are not mar Tied, but that because ehe called herself hie widow when ne wae be lived lost in the Paeifio, ehe must pretend to be hie wife now that he rrie returned so he may hold his iob with Mark Albery, who em ploys them both. l A NO, of course, It was kept dead ecret?" aaked Mr. Drake. "They aaid rumors got about," replied Laurie, "but we wanted to keep It a secret until be came back." "I understand. You were afraid of tba press. It wasn't their bust Bess. It Is extremely kind of you to tell me all this," he said grate fully. "1 wish you could remember the name of the minister who mar ried you. But, of course, they can easily find out. Somebody from the office will make a little pilgrimage cut there, ilow far did you say It was from your old homo?" Laurie prayed for the return of her wits as she bad nerer prayed for anything before. "About twenty miles." : "And the name of your old house?' "Ferndew Farm on the Targatta Road." "Do your people still lire there, Mrs. Moore?" "Oh, no! My father Is dead. My mother died long ago. My only sister Is here with me. I have nobody left In Australia." "And you were In Sydney when you heard the sad news of your husband s crash?" "Yes, 1 stayed on there." "And after your husband's sup posed death, you revealed yourself?" "Yes." After that It was easy nough to repeat the recital that she had made so often, of her dis covery by the Albery Arm, and her voyage to England through their kindness, and her subsequent work In the London offices. Then the young man asked a question that roused her temper. , "Could you Just give me a few words about how you felt when you had the news of your husband's re turn the other day?" "No, I certainly could not!" she flashed, and the young man ans wered In a rebuked voice. "Of course, I Quite understand. Such moments are sacred and can not be revealed to the public." HE got up and thanked her and took bis leave, and left her hardly able to stand and biting her Hps in an effort to force back an attack of hysterics. Her common souse had entirely deserted her. How could she have been so mad? What could she do to stop that youug man? Nothing! She could hardly even remember what she had told him. but sbe know that they were a pack of clumsy lies. Why hadn't she said they had been married In Sydney a big town, where she was a stranger? She might easily have forgotten all de tails about that. But near her own home where they would go and make Inquiries! She had made a hopeless mess of things. She had given the whole show away. Well, It was Rex Moore's fault, she told herself, and worked herself Into a state of Indignation. He ought to have thought af such a thing. He know all about newspaper men. He ought to have prepared her with a proper packet of Ilea. Dut when she was In bed that night In the flat, and everything was quiet and dark, she lay and saw Hex Moore's snowy eyes staring at ber, and his angry mouth smiling mock ingly, and his Impatient shoulders shaken with that brusque gesture of contempt She was terribly afraid. MARK At.RKRY did not come to the office for the next three diyi. He was at his country place In Cambridgeshire. According to a cus tom of Miss Dixie's time, Laurie could have stayed away altogether. But she haa a lot of notes to tran scribe and papers to arrange and file, and she worked each morning. Gladys was out In tbe mornings, but came back to the mld-dny meal. They had not started rehearsing yet but she wont to the practice room that the manager had hired In a tall old building neor Covent Gar den. Laurie was more at ease about Olad. There waf no sign of the young man who had given her the cicarel case. In the afternoon she FEW ALIBIS GOOD ON STOCK TAX RETURNS J, W.

And In tbe evenings they went to tbe pictures. Laurie wanted to keep Glad amused. And then, on the Saturday morn ing at, breakfast, came a surprise. Mr. Albery rang up from Cam brldegshlre and Invited Laurie and Glad to come down for the week end. He excused himself tpr perhaps spoiling his secretary's plans, but he found that he would bave to get In some work in the mornings. It would bo very kind If Mrs. Moore would give up her Sunday. The work was important. There were one or two people staying in the house, and he would see to it that Miss Gladys was kept amused. Laurie was excited and pleased. The keen edge had worn off tbe extraordinary scene In the office of "Glvo me luxury," mid Gladys. last Tuesday. She had uot seen bei employer since. Sbe bad thought about It, of courso; not once, bul many times. Mr. Albery had told ber that he loved bor. No iflrl could forgot sucb a thing as (bat. Hut she had decided that there must have been something the matter with him. Perhaps inea were like that. Thoy had tits of "coming all oer amorous" as the catch-phrase wont. Laurie knew absolutely nothing ubout men for a girl who bad knocked about the world as she had. But she was no fool, and during her two years of loneliness In her little Westminster attic, she had read an enormous number of books of all sorts. So she thanked Mr. Albery calm ly, and she and Gladys packed their suitcases and were rendy when the princely, silent motor came for1 them. Give me luxury!" said Gladys toi herself, as she tripped down the broad, shalUftv-steppod oak staircase of Mark Albery's historic Tudor house. It was nearly eight o'clock, at which time dinner was served. Gladys bad left Laurie up In her bedroom, hastily changing her clothes. Laurie had been working with Mr. Albery nil the afternoon. Something very Important had hap pened Just before they arrived. Laurte bad sent Gladys down, be cause she could not bear to be watched when she was In a hurry.

July 26 (AP) The gov ernor'a salary test suit, dismissed by decree of Judge L. G. Lc welting yes- tcrday, will probably after all be ap- pealed to the tvprrmo court, Rodney Alden. Woodburn publisher and at- torney for the plaintiff, Ed Jory, said here last night. Intimations here yesterday, after Lcwelllng had held that the gov ernor was entitled to receive more than $1500 a year, were that the caae would not be appealed due to the clarity of the Judge's opinion. The suit was brought by Jory to test the validity of tlie governor's present salary of 7600, less legisla tive reductions, the plaintiff con tending that under the constitution a salarv In excess of a 1500 was pro hibitive. riC' ; 1 .Hv'' 3 THE BOW-KNOT ( j j I SHOE COMES 0H-fED WWllE HC IS WM.VIN6 "fO &ti A ftn' ' WEAW HIMSELr. 5oR5 TO PICK UP A BRlfcHf PEBBVE Tr.ipred1 I'll never dc;iin) Live! cjivii dir., mine... een not a pw... mi j ihi'.,,i ....... k .1 "3 'vi'i. j? i nv.'
