Ltt's f el married now i right away The word "married" brought Kathleen to her tenses, or what she chose to call her senses. She Sushed Joe from her. She sat up. he began doing things to her hair. "How silly of us, Joel" she said. "Being romantic before noon!" She looked at the clock in the dashboard of the car. "Hurry up, I've got to get back to the barn. I'm going to ask Paul Pennell to give me a part in 'Goodbye, Honey Chile!" Joe stiffened. There were a number of things he could have said, and all of them cutting. But be decided to be a gentleman, and hold his tongue. He released the brake and the car moved on dowj the lane. "I heard that Farmer Kane's cow gave birth to twins," he said presently, when he had gotten control of his emotions. "If it's true, it ought to make a good item for m column." "Wonderful!" said Kathleen. Then she dug Into her bag for mirror. , . . Back at Ye Old Barn Drama Bouse the rehearsing went on and on. "I think," said Fred DeMllle finally, "that if everyone is agree able, I'll bring one of those cows back in here and put pants on her" "You're hitting at me, 01 course," said the actor who was taking the place c. th man with the injured ankle. "Okay, talk mart! I don't mind." "That's terribly sweet of you," aid Fred sarcastically "You don't seem to mind anything even directions " He sighed. "All right, let's try it again and again and again." Another hour of rehearsing, with everyone's nerves on edge. Ruby snapped a. Paul, Paul napped at Ruby and Daisy Doran lashed out with her tongue, which was sever very gentle even under the most favorable cir cumstances. "The ingenue with a dragon's disposition!" said the Juvenile. 'And a juvenile with a lady milliner's characteristics!" Daisy retorted. On and on. Finally Fred threw up his hands in disgust "Let it go!" he said. "Maybe the Linville audience won't be too critical." Panl And Ruby DAISY turned to the Juvenile. "If you ruin my scene to night," she said, "I'll murder you in cold blood." , "No kidding!" said the Juvenile. "Wny be so fussy? No one pays any attention to your part any way " "That's what you think," said Daisy. "Well, I know one person who'll pay attention." "Who?'' "Joe Neely who's going to re view the plays." "A rustic critic," sneered the Juvenile, "who probably doesn't :now a back-drop from a black out " "But he knows acting and iwriting," said Daisy. "I've talked to him a lot. Besides, some of his ireviews may be copied by the Philadelphia and Washington pa pers, I want to show him that I can create roles and have him five me good notices." "Nuts!" said the luvenlle. "Hell be too busy watching Ruby to take notice of you. He knows who to stand in with don't worry!" "Ruby's old enough to be his mother or his older sister, any way" "So what? She has a say-so about what plays will be tried out and this Joe Neely has a play." Daisy couldn't think of a re tort to this, knowing far too well that Joe had turned from her to Ruby. She shrugged and walked away. The luvenile watched her. and smiled. "Silly little female!" he thought, "She ought to be sell Books Listed New books at the Jackson county library In May Include the following: Fiction Beebe, From this day for ward; Field, Bride of Glory; Gessner, Here Is My Home; HaigBrown, Timber; Hicks, Only One Storm; Irwin, The Gay Galllard; Knight, Sam Small Flies Again; Markay, Valiant Dust; MacLean, Seven for Cor delia; Riasonovsky, The Chil dren; Weaver, Wind Before Rain; Boyce, The Pcrilious Night.

He should be han dling short orders in a roadside hot-dog standi" Paul and Ruby walked out Into the open together. "One reason the rehearsal went so badly," said Paul, "is because of the enmity between you and Daisy." . . . "Go fly a kite!" said Ruby. "How could that affect the' rehear, sal?" "Lack of harmony reflects In everyone's work." "A fine alibi for your rotten acting." "Thanks!" "Besides," Ruby went on, "If you'd stop trying to be Tyrone Power to Kathleen Vaughan, and think more about your work, re hearsals might go better." Paul grinned. "So you've at last admitted that I do look like Ty rone!" he said. "In an unpleasant sort of way, yes," said Ruby. "Only being a lot older, you " "Speaking of age," Paul cut In, "don t you think it's a bit silly for a woman edging on to forty, to be going off on picnics with a chap in his twenties? The dampness of the woods might bring on rheu matism, and "Don't worry about my rheuma tism," Ruby snapped. "Just take care of your hardening arteries. As a matter of fact, if you oiled them up a bit, rehearsals might not crack so." The Question PAUL Ignored the nasty remark. "Just what are your intentions regarding Joe Neely?" he asked. "Honorable, I trust. "Far more honorable than your intentions toward that stagestrurk Vaughan child," said Ruby. "By the way. she is stage-struck, you know She probably got up be fore daylight this morning to tackle you for a part." "She might not be bad at that." said Paul. "You don't mean you'd actually give her a part!" "I might. She couldn't be much worst than some of those folks we've got who call themselves Thespians." "Don't forget Tve got a say-so as to who plays," Ruby reminded. "I won't," said Paul. "But if I don't interfere with your search for a starring vehicle which ne cessitates romantic interludes with a rustic playwright you might let me have my say-so with the pretty rustic maiden whose barn we are using." Ruby frowned. "Seriously, Paul." she said, "please don't get involved with a local girl. You have done that for two summers now, and it only stirs up trouble. I'd hate to see you ridden out of town on a rail "Would you?" said Paul. "That is a comfort. I was under the im pression you'd enjoy the sight." He lit a cigarette, and walked over to where a piece of partly painted scenery was propped against the side of the barn. "I'll look after my Intrigues," he said meaningly. ''You take care of your own." Ruby glared at him, and then walked rapidly away. Paul picked up a brush, dipped it into a bucket of green paint, and went to work. He was still at it when Kathleen returned. She told Joe a hasty goodbye, and hurried over to the barn. "You look like an artist paint ing a portrait" she said, smiling up at Paul. "Oh. hello!" he said. "Sorry I was so busy this morning. Come on. tell me what's on your mind, loveliness." Kathleen came closer. She swal lowed a couple of times, and then she spoke. "I want to act with your com pany." she said. "Fred DeMille told me the other night at tha dance that I looked like some thing out of 'Goodbye, Honey Chile!' and so I well.

THIS ?OGVt Y- THETIS 1 ' FREEING COUNTRY Raw Materials From Lands Controlled By Japs No Longer Needed Is Belief. New York, May 27. (JP) American ingenuity Is gradually freeing the country from de pendence on certain raw ma terials usually obtained from areas now controlled by the Japanese, George S. Brady of the Office of Imports Board of Economic Warfare told the Na tional association of Purchasing Agents today. "The chemical Industry dur ing the past year has been out standing with new and substi tute materials," Brady, chief of the board's materials statistics division, said. "Out of the com mon resin in turpentine we now have a series of synthetic resins that do a good Job of replace ment of the various' varnish gums and resins that the Japs took from us in the Far East. Camphor Unneeded "We are now independent of the camphor and mentlo from Japan. Far Eastern tung oil no longer causes us any worry. Practically every natural per fume oil that we formerly got from the Far East has now been replaced with a synthetic. "South and central American countries comprise a veritable storehouse of trees and plants yielding food oils, paint oils and medicinal products." Brady said, however, not to "expect too much from synthetic rubber." "It is better than natural rub ber for certain uses but it will not replace natural rubber com pletely, he said. "Alternate na tural rubbers such as guayule and chrysu have good possibili ties." In his opinion, Brady said, "before we are through with the present effort, we will be using aluminum and magnesium as substitutes for other metals, even In ships." Too Much Paper E. H. Weaver, chief of the non-metal section of the conser vation and substitute branch of the War Production board, de clared it necessary to v"soft pedal" the government's waste paper salvage campaign because more stock was now being stored than could be used. Organizations, he said, had really gone to town In their ef forts to collect paper and in creasing stocks had definitely affected prices. Aluminum production of 2. 100,000 pounds, six and one-half times the 1939 production, was oictured for the end of 1B43 by Thomas D. Jolly, director of purchases and chief engineer of the Aluminum Co. of America, Pittsburgh. "Each of the new aluminum plants will produce more alum lnum than the entire nation made at the peak of production in the first World war," he said.
