MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFQKU, OREGON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1935 MORNING STAR BYXOPSIS: Bm Earntt ft about to divorce htr hutband, Ed win. EduHn It an eltimabl young man, but to opinionattd and narrow that living with him It mo(tI for a normal perton. Emily hat gone to Morton Hall to vttlt Judith, her college roommate and titter of David Carroll, whom Emily hat al waye remembered with warmth. But after the Carrollt lott their ? plantation, David disappeared Into he wilds 0 Turkey. Emily dote not know, but Judith hat cabled David that the plantation It again en the market. Chapter 31 DOGS AND BRIDGE i "T0 WE wear evening dresses for 'J this Dan RaynorT Emily asked from the depth! of bar closet Judith awunc bar lone lata erar tba arm of a chair. Sba waa super -rising Emily's toilet. "Heavena, no! Ha'll probably small like eaddle-aoap and Glover's mange cure. And even when he's dressed up be looka aa If he'd put on bla elothei In the dark and slid down a firemen a pole." Emily ahook with mirth. "Ton leave me all a -flutter with the pros pect Then shall I wear ridlnt boota and a sombrero 7 Judith considered. "Have you jot something soft and floating and Inef fably feminine? If you haven't you ought to have: you ought never to wear anything but sport clothes in the daytime and chiffons at night" "I don't." She produced a beige chiffon, floor-length, with a deep yoke of cobwebby lace and long bell shaped sleeves. "Will this do?" "Perfect I can hear the crash right now. I hope you've got x string of tiny pearls to go with It" Emily laughed. "I have." Judith grinned. "I wonder what made me think you needed looking liter." She uncurled herself and rose. At the door she paused. "I forgot to warn you that Dan Is a widower and that be means no good by anyone. But I thought he'd be rather a relief after Edwin." At the mention of Edwin her throat contracted. What was Edwin doing at this moment, she wondered: reading bis paper, perhaps. In the repressive Victorian solidity of bla father's house? She resolutely closed the door of ber memory on Edwin and smiled. "Thanks for the hint I'll try to keep my affections under control." Judith chuckled. "I won't lose sleep over that" rAN RAYNOR was Just what Ju- - dith had described. Although his clothes were beautifully cut It waa obvloua that Dan wore them on suf ferance. But ha looked Interesting, Emily decided; tall and rangy, with a thin, weather-beaten face that sug gested that be bad lived not wisely but too well. There were deep lines at either aide of his wide mouth, and a net work of wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but the eyes were dark and fine, and the smile be gave her re vealed the most beautiful teeth she bad aver seen. Ha came straight to her and took both ber hands. Just aa David bad done so long ago. Was It a eharae terlstlo of these men? she wondered, "Jade, you didn't warn me," ha re proached ber In a voice that was even aofter and mora slurred than Aubrey's. Judith said calmly, "No, but I warned her." He whirled on bar In consterna tion. "The hell you dldl What did you tell her?" "That your Intentions are strictly dishonorable." He scowled at her and then smiled dlsarmlngly at Emily. "The truth Isn't In her," he said sweetly. "She's repeating vicious gossip." Ous appeared with cocktails and Dan looked pained. "Do I have to drink those damn' things?" "Do you ever?" Aubrey asked calmly. He turned to Ous. "Bring the whiskey." Dan'a face cleared. "I thought maybe you expected me to be on my good behavior." Judith aald Impudently, "I didn't know you had one," and Dan Raynor turned appeallngly to Emily. "You aee? And I did want you to love me!" She laughed. Dan was a very definite Southern type, and one with which ahe had bad very little experi ence: a type that lived hard, drank bard, and loved easily and briefly. "I'll try not to let them prejudice me." Dinner was a gay and noisy affair. The conversation waa reminiscent of Carrollton, and dealt with topics that were entirely foreign to her experience. Dove ahoots, fox bunta, the Impending Held trials. Aubrey was entering a yming dog In the trials: an English setter that Judge's Wife Mint ray. NEW YORK. Oct. 14. (UP) Mrt.

The three of them dis cussed the dog technically and at length. "Who's handling blm for you?" Dan asked. "Ed Parrlsh. Ha can get more out of a dog than anybody In the game." Dan nodded. "Much competition thla year?" "If all the doga that have been nominated are started there'll be plenty," Aubrey admitted. "But ol courae In a Derby it'a hard to tell. Everett from Philadelphia la bring ing his string, and so Is Hudson. I haven't heard from the others." Dan turned to Emily. "Ever seen a national Held trial?" "Neither a national nor any other kind," ahe confessed. "You'll enjoy It I'm putting In my bid now to take you." She besitated. "That's over a month away, Isn't It? I won't be here that long, I'm afraid." Judith frowned. "Don't be ailly. Who says you won't?" Emily smiled at her, and knowing Judith's determination decided not to argue it then. "And In the meantime," Dan went on, "I think we'd better have a fox hunt Ladles don't fox-hunt down here, but Jude's not a lady, thank God. And we can corral one or two otbers like her. What about Satur day night?" JUDITH laughed. "No grass under your feet, Is there, Daniel?" Her glance flicked Emily for an Instant, tenderly. "Emily's been 111, and I'm afraid aha won't be equal to anything so strenuous for at least two weeks. But we'll have it later." "Tell me about fox-hunts," Emily said. "I'm not sure I'd ever be equal to one." ( "Oh, there'a none of the fence and hedgerow stuff they have In merrle England," he reassured her. "We go out to my cabin for supper and get started about three In the morning. The big coon and the red fox walk Just before day." "And what do you do In the mean time?" aha asked curiously. "The low-lltes play poker, and the others aleep around the flre." "And there'a a quaint old southern custom," Aubrey put In, "that the first person awake geta to kick coals In everybody else's face." - "Then I can't go," Emily aald firmly. "I aleep too soundly." Dan chuckled. "Don't you worry, honey.", Emily looked so dubious that the three of them laughed heartily at her apprehension. They played bridge after dinner: duplicate contract at a tenth of a cent. Emily was uneasy: she sensed that their bridge would be a very different game from that of the Blston younger set "I'll be your partner," she told Dan, "If you'll let me pay my own losses. Because I'm pretty sure I'll throw you." He merel? looked at her; the most reproving and reproachful look she had ever seen. Under his unwaver ing eyea ahe felt herself flushing, slowly and hotly. He turned appeal lngly to Judith. "Make her atopl I'll kiss her here and now If you don't" Judith waa aortlng the duplicate boards. "I guess we can stand it II she can," she told blm calmly. Emily laughed helplessly. "All right But you may lose your shirt." The argot of Morton Hall, she real, lied aa she spoke, was Insidious and contagloua. Dan waa arranging pillows In bar chair. "It wouldn't be the first time, sugar." She bad guossed right about the bridge. They played casually, with none of the bickering that charac terised so manv aerlouu game:, but It waa evident that they respected the game as a beautiful and Intricate thing. "It you ever find you're broke," Dan told her warmly, "Just let mi know and we'll do thla for a living." "Not with us, you won't," Judith assured hlra. "Dan, my darling, It's time tor you to go home." He rose reluctantly. "Every tlmi 1 begin to enjoy myself somebody makes me go home." He looked at Emily. "How about a ride tomor row?" She hesitated. "I rode today foi the first time In nearly two years, and I have a suspicion that I won't be equal to It." "Then we'll wait a day or two." He turned to Judith. "Thla Is Thursday: have dinner with me Saturday night?" "We'd love It." "Fine." He took Emily's handa "I'll try to bear It until then."
