MEDFORD MAIT TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON. WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 18, 1939. PAGE SIX After A Man's Heart by JEAN V LSTERDAY. Becautt Buff teet in Tim someone who need to be taken care of, the tuggestt that they "join forces." When Tim realizes the means marriage, he tayt he won't dump hit trouble on a child Chaptei 11 Bmy Wirea THIS k my ide? of what a room should be." said Tim. BufT chuckled. "Yon shoul'l have seen it when we bought the ranchl Dyed pussy willowsin about eleven different vases. Hassocks, ir foot stools, whatever vou like to call 'em. lying in wait for the unwary at practically every turn. Two paintings I had to remove those before I took my hat off or Lance would have been ill. A sofa which held one and a half pe 'sons if each of them gripped an arm tightly." He cast an eye about the big room. "Who wrought .-. miracle?" "1 did!" She gave a little wiggle of childlike glee. "What sort of an interior decorator am I, Mr. Tim othy Corliss? Although," she ad ded nonestly, "it was more a )ob of removal than it was of decorat ing. First I stripped the room to the bare walls and floor; then I went to Boulder and ordered this furniture sent out. It came the same day. The whole procedure hardly required twelve hours " "And unlimited nash." he re minded her. "Don't forget that." He ran a suspicious hand over the arm of the chair he wa occupying. "I have an idea that this thing I'm sitting in cost about a hundred dol lars, maybe more. "What if it did? I happened to be where I could buy what Lance likes. But I've made him comfort able in places where eight dollars would be the limit of expenditure. I." she boasted, "can make a home out of three yards of cretonne, two aof.i cushions and a fireplace." He sighed and relaxed. "I'll take your word for it. I suppose a course in interior decorating is indicated. But I recommend Chicago. Boul der's a grand little place, but I doubt if they go in for the kind of thing you need." "I never said a word akout want ing to take such a course," was her indignant reply. "It was you who brourht it up warned me against it. You might as well give n, Tim. You need me and I I reed to be needed. I'll look after you, and you can pay back all the money you owe George " "Using what for cash?" "It'll be your own money," she aid quickly. "It isn't even some Lance gave mel Grandmother left me something, and I do sell things, you know. We'll have i joint bank account." He picked up a 1 "1 ood and chucked it savag-'Iv ,nln the fire. "I owe you a In! luff, and twenty's pretty young;, but even taking those thing:, into considera tion you're pushing me far much too far. We're both tired out. We'd bettor go to bed." "Then why the extra Ior on the Br.-?" she asked. "It's unreasonable," he conced ed. "But then so is everything in this cockeyed world especially the things that have happened to me this summer." He rose and held out his hand to her. "This is goodby as well as good-night, my child! You've been mighty swell to me. Please don't think I don't appre ciate it I hope you get your fore man soon because it's getting too cold for you to stay on the ranch much longer. By the way, what's to become of Mrs. Webb?" "She's coming to Boulder to keep hou -o for us," was the composed replv. "lis?" "Us. It may have to be for me at first if you insist on being all haughty end stubborn; but sooner ' or later it will be for us." She laid her own small hand in his and smiled up at him. "I always know what I want, Tim, and I always get it. It'll save a lot of time if you realize that." He shoved his hands Into his pockets. "Oddly enough I have a lew ideas along that line myself. Even in a negative way. I know what I don't want, if you get my meaning; and marriage heads the list just now. Sorry, BufT. It was never my intention to turn down any girl but y au must admit you've asked for it." She went quietly toward the door, her (limy skirts floatin; about her. Just before she left the room she turned and waved her hand at him. "See you soon In Boulder. Tim my dear!" 'Respectable Occupation' T ETTER from Eleanor Carroll to - her daughter Buff. "Dnrlinp. we expect to be in Chi cago by Tuesday of next week Surely by now you mill have found someone to replace I (kins and enn join us nt once. It has been a hard time, this se paration from you, btit I feel sure it has done us all pood. Lance is in fine spirits and has a neio idea for a series of cartoons about U'hioh he is loritino his syn dicate. Please wire when we may expect you, "ELEANOR."

'THEY NEVER BAID WH7RE THEY WAS GOING AND IT WAS NOT NONE OF MY BUSINESS TO ASK ADVICE NOT WORRY YOUNG LADY SURE CAN LOOK AFTER HERSELF SIMONS." Paragraph from social column In Boulder paper. 'Miss Buff' Carroll, dauahter of the celebrated cartoonist, Lance Carroll, is a iiuest at the Boulder ado Hotel. To this correspondent she confided that since business will keep her lor some time m this city, she intends renting a ;ur- msnea apartment. 1 tie cook housekeeper from her father's ranch torn act as chaperon, pro vided so breezy and charmiiiolu assured jomifl person at. Miss Car rol! feels the need of tin's conces sion to Mrs. Grundy. Miss 'Buffs' business will be placed in the hands of Mr. Timothy Corliss who. your correspondent learned, has lately ocen a guest at the Carroll Ranch." Tim. doccedlv at work In his laboratory, did not see this item but George Weekes did, and chuckled. Also he telephoned Buff at once at the hotel. "Your opening gun was Im mensely effective." he told her. "Tim and I have had two dinner invitations already on the strength of if. What next?" Two things, was the brisk re ply. "Refuse the invitations and accept one from mo. I've rented an apartment and I want Tim to see it before I do anything to it. It's pretty awful." She gave the ad dress, named the time the two friends would be expected. "A sort of 'before and after" dem onstration to Tim, is that the idea?" "George, your brain does you credit," she assured him. "That's the idea exactly. Did Tim tell you that my intentions are honorable and far from remote? That, in fact, I intend to marry him and soon? This was too much even for George's nonchalance. Buff heard him gasp before he answered. "N-no. Ho didn't tell me. But I'd back you, Bull, to put through any plan that pops into your head. Do you think Tim will let me be best man? And please don't have it an evening wedding because I've put on weight since I bought my one and only suit of tails, and can I aflord another. Or if I do, I can't give you a wedding present. You'U have to choose." "Don't bother me with trifles," was Miss Carroll's advice. "For all I know I may have to kidnap Tim and drive him into Denver to a Justice of the Peace. I have lots on my mind, and all of it more im portant than what vou wear at any time or place." He agreed humbly that this might be so; fuilhei agreed to produce Tim with or without handcuffs for dinner on the fol lowing evening; and hung up the receiver feeling that he had been playing about with an electric dy namo which though stimulating was not without a certain clement of danger. Continued tomorrow. George Caldwell, former con struction superintendent at Louisiana State university, and his assistant, Eugene Barksdale, and Kd;:ar N. Jackson, former business manager at the uni versity, were indicted in an other action on ten charges of diversion of WTA labor and ma terials to private residences of Mrs. Iluey P.

STRANGE For further proof address THE LITTLE COOK Ten-year-old Barbara Jenkins of Denver, Colo., is so adept In creating new recipes and preparing delicious dishes that two years ago she cooked a breakfast for nine persons, including Governor and Mrs. Johnson of Colorado. Using three ranges, Barbara can prepare from seven to ten dishes in 45 minutes enough to satisfy eight. She has given cooking demonstrations before hundreds of . thousands of ad mirers.
