PAGE. TEN MEDFORD MATL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD,- OREGON. THURSDAY, JUNE 12, 1941. 6 FKltx TSSTtHDAY: A mMir of rhinos art necessary oelore Anne VVillard can Hope to rtleast her lalhrr ind mother, now firing held prisoner tn Iht loft Asiatic cuy o Shy-e-JVaoo. And one of - these Is (hat she mtut know what BUizt Sherwood If doino. be . cause Ware may be loorfctna apainst hrr father end mother. nd yet he is entanoted tn the tflcb with her, and her frtendj. And now Pete Mackey hoe brought a note from filase to Anne tn the desert camp which belongs to her father and mother. Chapter 2 The Letter CHERWOOD had written: Dear Anne: 1 received your note. Surely you know that kind of talk does not go between u. I hall not aay anything more now. mere nave already been too many words. If these negotiations drag on much longer I'll direct that you come to me, but I expect to finish and be able to loin you soon. Have you heard the news from Yangsar? We managed to give the Princess the aid she needed and consequently her son has become the new Emir. The young fellow may be some Improve' ment on his father though he hasn't the force of his mother. But then, as you know, I admire women, so i may be prejudiced. The Princess is praying for a son for us as you might suspect. My arms around you tonight, Rimpoche, as they have been every night. Our special kiss. Remember? Blszt P. S. You put me on the spot with Pete letting him think t haven't sense enough to take ad vantage of my opportunities. But I realize the conflicts of love and duty you face and promise to be very patient I hear Diana M. and Louis are in the Ex pedition. Give them my love: and my regards to little Beth. Doddap sends word he is in your camp and will guard your tent during my absence. Be kind to him, will you please? It must have been he I set out to in tercept that morning. It looked like 4 high-handed ?tter to Anne. Currents of every sassion. rage, rapture, injured pride, fear of disaster, hope of bliss, surged through her being. Different phrases from the let ter beat at her as she sat there trying to compose herself. She had always known there was something unyielding in Blaze something invulnerat-'e. But for him to let her think Pete was dead when he knew better to take advantage of that situa tion And now, not even a word of apology. It was unforgivable. Yet in one thing she felt self hame. Misjudging his motive in regard to the gold pieces. He still claimed her. And then she re membered Philip's words "no feeling of chivalry will keep him from demanding his perquisites." She looked up and the others were leaving the table. She man aged to smile. Thev came over. "Well" asked Diana, "did he lend me a message?" "He sent you his love and re tards to little Beth." Beth glanced at Diana tri umphantly, "Gosh, he remem bers me. - was once in love with him too. but I never told him so." Her husband laughed. "Does he tell vou what he's up to?" Philip demanded in his ner vous way. "He speaks of coming here soon." "What?" shouted the man. "Coming here? Just what does he mean?" "I'm sure I don't know," said Anne wearily. He reached out a hand. "Here, let me read the letter" "Philip, no!" She drew back shsrply "I've told you all he said about it Just that statement" Wild Man THEN Philip went berserk. He began cursing Sherwood. He paced bark and forth, fists clenched, flailing the air. raving like a madman. Ann,, hadn't known there were such combina tions of words. She sat appalled. Mackey looked ready to spring on the man. The others stood watching him anxiously. As Beth told Anne afterwards. "He's been having these spells lately. That's what falling In love with Diana does to a man." Beth never forgot her personal griev ance. Anne waa compelled to smile. "Don't be silly." Then she sob ered. "Philip's working too hard and under too much of a strain. We must try to make things easier for him." But now she didn't know what to think. Presently, weak with spent rage he dropped into a chair muttering an apology. Per spiration stood out on his face, blottrd through his shirt. His hands were trembling. The sight sickened Anne. She rose, anxious to get away from them all and hive a private talk with Pete. She slipped a hand through his arm and led him out and towards her tent "Sweet serpents," he muttered looking back. "Let s forget It." she said. "He apologized. It's grand to be hear ASHLAND STUDENT IS NEW SOCE PRESIDENT Southern Oregon College of JUST . . . 2 Shopping Days until Father' Day 73axk$a STORE FOR MEN tWhkr fiMr ing you ssy "sweet serpents again." "They've kind of soured on ma lately, he lamented, and greet ing the lama who Touched under the aiming at her tent door, sent him out to the plane for a parcel. "Thought I ought to present this Kind of private," he said, "considering the mess 1 mad of giving you the letter." They dropped Into folding chairs in the shade and smiled st each other. Suddenly he burst out: "Say. what did you wTlte to Blaze? Not that I want to know," he disclaimed, hastily, "but he blushed like a boy when I gave him that letter and shut up after he read It like a clam with the pip. I don't want to interfere in other people's business, but can't you still be friends?" A cold look came Into Anne's eyes. "Blaze Sherwood is so ex tremely capable of taking care of himself that he needs no friends." "He's not very capable If I read the signs aright" muttered Pete, scratching his head. "In fact he hasn't got enough sense to take advantage of" "What did he have to say to you?" she interrupted hastily. "Mighty little. Wanted to know what 1 told you and if I got you here safely and under good care. Say, why does Dr. Oliver hate him so? Because of that wedding ceremony? That's nothing to hold against Blaze." "I think it's professional, not private disapproval," she said. I'm .he one to blame for every thing that's happened. In some strange way I seem to have made all the decisions. I guess Blaze is right when he says fear is the only sin." Doddap carried a long paper box on his shoulder and took it into the tent. Anne and Mackey followed. He opened the box for her sheaves of lilies and peonies and hyacinths. "Why Pete," cried Ann de lightedly, "you must have raided the governor's conservatory." "Blaze did," he grinned. "Blaze and the Dao Tai are trying to see which one can feast the other un der the table. I think Blaze is winning. You know he's got an eight-day advantage." Difficult Decision ANNE found a note. "A symbol of some of the sweetness you've been to me. blaze. Her chin quivered for a mo ment before she could get hold of herself again. "You had better tell him." the said, her gaze on the flowers, "that as far as we are concerned it will be absolutely uselesa for him to come here." She looked up, pain in her eyes. "Why Pete, he has even put my parents' lives in jeopardy by making the Na garas doubt our integrity." "Maybe he didn't mean to go so far, Anne. Maybe that lust happened." "That's no excuse. What doea he think we are that he can do anything he chooses and we will forgive him?" She was careful to speak in the plural. "I don't know." said Mackey heavily, "1 think of him as a pretty decent fellow a little screwy like all scientists but good company and dependable. "Do you remember that time he beat you. there in the snow storm?" "Saved my life." "But it shows you how ruth less he can be. Is It possible he's trying to get the Chinese gov ernor to break our concession contract? Pete exploded. "No. he wouldn't do anything that low down." "Or take our contract awav from us? He speaks of coming here." "I really don't know what he's up to. He's flown into Russia once and to Arishar a couple ol times and 1 m "oing to say this, though vou don't want m to ne s in love with you. She looked uo at him. her evea bright "On his own terms, may be, but they don't happen to be acceptable to me." He rose reluctantly. "I must b going." They shook hands. "Come again, Pete. You know you're always welcome." "It Blaze moves in on this camp as you say he's talking of doing, I'll likely be the on to bring him." Her brow clouded and then she smiled. "I shan't hold even that against you." He tried again. "Sure you don't want to send him just a word?" "All right I will." she de clared suddenly, rummaged for paper and pencil and wrote bur nedly: I'm asking you to divorce m at once. Vou know the for mula. Pete would he an ac ceptable witness. ANNE. The moment Mackev left she dropped down in her chair again and buried her face in her hands. She had the "dowry" stacked in the small storage tent and when everything had quieted down sh called the lama into the tent. He dropped down cross-legged just inside the door. She looked at him silently a .noment. "Doddap." sh asked, "why are you here?" "Because you are her and Sherwood comes " "From now on. Doddap, your master and I go different roads."
