TEST MEPFOTCTVMATL TRIBUNE, "NfEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1936 mm ia rjV SAILtY WOLFt i iNUHSlS: To help ft, lorn ily's dwindling income, attractive Sally Warren, who always Ihtnu oi others, becamet society editor of the IVarrenton Courier. She eels responsible lor cay, wilul Tip and handsome Ray. the 18-year-old Warren twine who are about to (Inith hioh KhooL Terry Maunard, boyuh. blond aviator in love with Sally, Alt' her to near by Greensboro to eland by during his interview with the head ol a large aviation line. He landi a Job loiti South American prospects and aelee Sally to marry hi' that very night. Chapter Six Tip GeU Cauglu nUT they were not married that U night Sally, on the way to the plane, trying to match Terry' iong trlde, tugged at nil arm oreamiessiy "Terry, we can't be married now. I don't know whenever we csn be marrica. Terry (topped short "But you aid ... " "1 know. But we must wait We mustn't even lei anyone know we're engaged. Father and Mother can't do without my salary now. They've got to have the money, and I've no right to take It away from them until I've seen Ray safely oft to school and got place for Tip." "Why didn't you say no, then, In stead of yes7" said Terry suilenly. He turned away from her ar.d stood by the plane, his hands plunged in his pockets. "That'll take yeara and I'm leaving here In six months I hope." "Maybe you'll have to leave with out me," said Sally. "We're both young. 1 could come to you later." 'That won't do," said Terry, "If 1 leave here without you, we'll never get married. You'll forget me." "Let's not try to settle everything tonight," urged Snlly. "Let's wait We've got six months before you go. Maybe by that time 1 can see my way clear. So much can happen In six months." "Sure It can. Maybe somebody will die and leave us a million.' And so H was settled that no one was to be told of the engagement un til the six months were up. By the time Terry had brought the plane to landing on the home field, he was In good spirits again., "In six months," he boasted, I'll make a flyer of you. 1 mean to begin teaching you right away." Sally was too wise to let him know what dismay this proposal caused her. They were very gay on the way home. Terry told her all about the Interview with Willis Cates, who owned the largest block of stock in the air line where Terry hoped to make his fortune. Snlly predicted that one day Terry would be seated be hind a vast mahogany desk, telling other people where and how to fly, and Terry vowed that no amount of money would ever make him give up flying Itself. Duke Has Tlra Trouble T'HE old car rattled around a bend -I In the country road and came suddenly upon a parked car. Terry rammed on the brakes. "They're having trouble," said Sal ly, noticing someone standing by the car, "Maybe we'd better stop and see If we can help." They got out and walked toward the car. As they did so, they saw a girl, who had been' holding a flash light for the man, cut off the switch and run behind the car. "Coma back hero with that light," jelled the man. "It's Duke Adams," said Terry. "What's the matter, old boy?" Sally recognized Duke at once. He worked at the Maynard garage and was a flying pupil of Terry's. "Been up tonight!" Inquired Terry, holding .ill own light for Duke Adams to work by. "Yep." Duke Adams worked at his tire, keeping his face turned from Sally. "Couple of passengers wanted I to make a train at Raleigh. 1 flew j them over." Suddenly a suspicion came to Sally. 'Did my sister Tip fly with you to- . night?" she asked quietly. ! When Duke said nothing, and only stood there, fumbling with the wrench, Terry laughed. "Guilty by the looks of him," he told Sally. "1 didn't say a word," said Duke sullenly. "Well, then, 1 will." said Tip War ren, coming around the side of the I car to stand by him. "1 went up with Duke. What of It?" "That's the spirit," said Terry. "Come on and get In Terry's car," said Sally sternly. "We'll take you home." "I'll have this tire fixed In a min ute," said Duke. "I'd better go "1th Sally, Duke," said Tip. "There'll be a terrible row If S&Uy gets in before 1 do." "Just as you say," said Duke dis consolately. "Thanks for the ride. 1 had a per fectly swell time." Tip marched over to Terry's car and climbed in with all the dignity of a queen being kid naped. Sally, followed, furious with Tip for putting her in the position of a tyrant before Terry. "Ran away, dldn t you?" queried Terry good-humoredly. "Of course 1 did." said Tip. "It's the only way you can have any tun in Warrenton to run away." "Right" said Terry. "Isn't it so, Sally?" Sally gave In gracefully. She couldn't go on acting like a grand mother, even if Tip had scared her. "Tip, you're a wretch and 1 ought to scold you, but 1 Just can't Promise me, though, one thing If you have to fly, let Terry take you up." "I'd love to," said Tip. "Wouldn't you love to take me, Terry?" "Anything to keep on good terms with the family." Tip Flies With Terry THEY all three reached the Warren house in high good humor. Before Terry drove away, it was arranged that Sally should get permission for Terry to take Tip up in his plane. sally was secretly relieved. She would not worry about Tip so much If Terry was looking after her. It was only after Sally was un dressed and lying beneath the blue patch-work quilt that she realized fully that she had promised to marry Terry Maynard, and that If she did she would be saying goodby forever to Warrenton and to the old, hum drum life of Sally Warren. The thought filled her with a delightful sense of excitement In the days that followed, Sally was too busy with her Job and the de mands on her time at home to spend much time with Terry, But she de lighted In the knowledge that Terry was always near, rncly to take her for an outing when she could spare a moment And when sally was too busy to go with him, Tip went, and Sally was glad that Tip was In safe hands. Somehow, Tip seemed to have grown up a little. She was more con siderate of her mother a.id father, and gnvo up running around with some of the crowd Mrs. Warren con sidered too ''fast." Sally put it down to Terry'a influence and to the fact that Tip was about to graduate from high school and realized that she must choose somo sort of career for herself. None of them realized that Tip had already chosen her career. Sally, herself, never dared to plan as far ahead as the end of the six j months' grace she had asked of Terry not even when two months had i slipped by. She would not admit to aerself that her snlary was becoming more and more necessary to the War rens. Tip had to have clothes for graduation, and some money had to be put In the bank toward Ray's medi cal course. The rest of Sally's salary went toward providing some com forts for the household, which had been hard put to it to make ends meet on Mr. Warren's dwindling earnings. tuopyrtght, JS.1S. uatley wollsf Bally meets her new employer In the moonlight tomorrow.
