PXGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIES UXE, MEDFQRL), OREGON, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1933. MORNING STAR i ay Majiiak Sims trxOPMS: Imily Ftlton at ual fceuii aeiit to Ardmort College, although the wanted to 00 to Bryn Hater. France t'elton her mother, fettled that at the. hat Mettled everything else in Emily and her fnther't existence. Emily hat let tht ndoring but thy Edwin Barnet ot homt: at Ardmore her room' mate it Judith Carroll, who it a lovely and irresponsible girl Judith confesses tht hat arrived too lata to rescue her trunk, to mutt sleep on tht mattrett. Chapter Three NEW LIFE IT ended by Emily's producing linen and making the bed, while Judith unpacked frothy underwear and talked Incessantly. "I'm a lucky brute to draw a room mate like you," the said, throwing garment! carelessly Into a drawer. "I can see that you're the mothering kind." Emily laughed. "Just the opposite. I've been thoroughly mothered all my life." Judith gdnned Impishly. "Then that's where you learned the trick so well. Perhaps you'll be an example for me: I might even become recon ciled to Ardmore." "You didn't want to come here?" "Not much. It's the penalty for having the family Intelligence. But I didn't mind enough to make an is sue of it," she added. Judith extended her own invitation. "Why can't you come home with nie and see the Carroll menagerie?" Emily glowed. "I'd love it, but I'm not sure how Mother would feel about my not coming home." Judith's assurance was boundless. "I don't believe Bhe'il refuse It we handle her properly." Frances would have liked very much to refuse, but la some way (she was nover very clear how) Judith out-maneuvered her and she found th'tt she had consented. Ju dith even managed, since Emily was eighteen now, and since It was Im possible for Mrs. Felton to come to Birmingham Just then, to superin tend the buying of Emily's ward robe. The result was disconcerting. "I think," Judith had decided while they waited for her favorite saleswoman to finish with a cus tomer, "that we'd better capitalize your type. You know: the startled fawn standlne-wlth i reluctant feet type." Emily giggled. "Am I as bad as that?" "Bad, my eyol You'll be damn' good. Particularly down home where all the women are large and raw- boned and either horsey or doggy. David will have a cerebral hemorrhage." Judith unpacked, and talked Incessantly, As she fell alseep that night Emily wondered what would have hap pened if she had "made an issue of It." The possibility ot such a course had never occurred to her. She wore for one week a large placard on her back, bearing her full name. She participated in the Fresh man-Sophomore Stunt, which culm!' nated In a truce and the ceremony of burying the hatchet. After that she settled down to the routine of college: swiftly passing days of study; nights ot soft beauty on the campus, when the moon sil vered the roofs and etched the tower ot Main In dark grace against the eky. CHE made friends; not with the " easy catholicity ot Judith, but quietly and surely. She mads the class tennis team, and found herself appointed to various minor ofllces dolegnted to freshmen. There was apparently a groat deal more to col lege than books, and because she had promised Frances to do her best she took It all as It came. Under Judith's expert tutelage she even learned to laugh, heartily and often, and was amazed to discover how unimportant her troubles seemed so long as she dared to laugh at them. She went home for week-ends twice a month, and on the last trip netore Lnrutmns took Judith with her. Jeffrey was entranced, but Frances thought her rather danger ously ettractivo ond wondered It she wasn't a demoralizing Influence for Emily. Edwin eyed her with distrust, as one of tho major planets entirely outside his orbit, and confided pri vately to Emily that he thought her frivolous. Emily sgreed promptly. "She Is. I3ut what a bore It would be if every one did his duty and took lire so seriously," "Not half as boring as if every body took life as she does." Emily looked thoughtful. "I'm not so sure. Anyhow. I wish I were built that way." "I don't," Edwin told her firmly and slgnltloanlly. "I like you much bettor as you are." When the Easier holidays arrived I T-vAVID, Emily had learned before this, was Judith's brother. He was tweuty-two. Just out of Tulane, and the be-all and end-all ot Judith's existence. His picture adorned her desk: a flguro that was gay and careless and smiling, that wore dilapidated riding breeches and a shirt thrown open at the throat. There was a horse In the picture, and a shining Irish setter at his foet The thought ot meeting David left Emily a little shaken and breathless. "I'm scored to death!" she ad mitted. "Rats!" Judith cast a critical ey at a dinner-frock of autumn-leaf chif fon In a nearby case. "The secret lies In looking sweet and not being shocked at anything they say or do." A lorge order, Emily feared, for one who had cut her teeth on words like Duty, and Responsibility to the Lens Fortunate A car with a liveried chauffeur mot them In Montgomery and drove them the fifteen miles to Carrollton. It wns one of the few real planta tions left in Alabama. Emily had learned, and there were miles and miles of It devoted to cotton and corn, horses, dogs, ond quail. Mr, Carroll played the cotton market when the hunting season wasn't on, with varying success. "We have our fat years and our lean ones," Judith hod explained carelessly, "and this Is one of tho (at ones. Next year wo'll probably be selling tho cars and Jewelry to pay the taxes." "Why not save something on tho fat yoarsT" Emily wanted to know. "Because If wo did that we'd never have any fun. As It Is, we really en- Joy life about half of the time." She had never before encountered such pure hedonism as went to make up Judith's creed. Her reaction was compounded of fascination and re pulsion. The cor swept Into a driveway, and Emily caught her breath at the beauty of it. There were houses, she realized suddenly, that repelled your advances; and there were houses that held out their arms and said, "Come In, come In!" Judith's house held out Its arms.

There were no flowors or appointments. There were no mourners because all of Hamilton's pals are either dead shot as he was by sheriffs or "O" men. or In penitentiaries. Three men took Hamilton's body to the grave nd none had a sentimental duty. Thorsen, and his assistant low ered the cheap, gray, cloth covered casket Into the pit while the Rev.

MRS. i&SOV&Kh, Lynn, Mase. The rule of Murad III, the gold hoarder, marked the beginning ot the decline of the Dttoman empire. Superstitious, feeble, and dominated by his harem, Murad's chief delight In life wns the gathering of gold. He had a marble lined vit:!t built under his sleeping chamU. . and here he kept hi, treasure. He slept over the door of the vault every night. The gold he gathered was never used by him only once In three months was the vault opened, and then only to add new treasure to the pile. Two and a half millions In gold were taken out of the vault after the sultan's death In 1595. Strange as it eems, during the rule of Murad III, the real power behind the throne was a Christian slave, Salle hla favorite wife. Shft was the daughter of a noble vena tion fnmily, captured as a child oy Turkish pirates, and sold Into the harem of Murad. Quebec, the only walled city In tftKMfUSjft4kftt.lM. ?-2$ Nortn America, was once the strong est fortress of the British Empire w'.th the lone exception of the Rock cf Gibraltar. It was first fortified oy the French, but none of these works remain. The present walls were built a oentury ago. and with the exception of some gates which have been rebuilt, they remain practically Intact. 6JfS HOME fROW CRMP.
