By Watkins Chapter 19 Bright Day THE next day the day of the barbecue waa perfect The weather man had shown great benevolence. And aa Joe Neely itood looking out of the window of hia bedroom he thought that It looked aa though the weather man had taken the moat perfect day In June and an ideal September day, itirred them well, and added Jutt the proper touch of Auguat aky and sunshine. Not a cloud ... gentle breeze . . . and over all a canopy of spot less blue. He turned away from the win dow, and finished dressing. It was when he was putting hia best pa lamas, his toilet articles, and his iwimmiru? trunks in a beach bag the telephone bell rang. He picked up the receiver. "Hello?" he said. "Is that you, Joe. honey?" t feminine voice inquired. "Yes." Joe said, smiling to him self. "This is Joe-honey. "Joe, honey, this Is Daisy. I'm In a terrible dilemma." "What's happened?" "I've got no one to take me out to the barbecue. Fred's going to take aome of the town folks that have been Invited good business, he saysl And Ruby's doing the lame." "What about Paul?" "Oh, he's going to take your girl-friend." "I thought she waa already out there." "She was. But It seems that ahe had to come in for some laat-min-uta errands, and Paul's playing busman or Cupid or boy scout, or something." "And you want me to drive you out is that it?" "Yes, Joe, honey. Unless you've also got a earful. "Not a soul," said Joe. "Glad to have company. Are you ready?" "Yes, Joe, I am, said Daisy. "I've got the duckiest sort of dress for the barbecue, and one for this evening, and one for to morrow, rve also got some aiacks to wear over my bathing suit, and "Just a minute!" Joe cut In. Maybe I'd better bring a truck." Daisy laughed. "I've got every one of those things In one small suitcase. Believe it or not." "It's hard to believe, all right," aaid Joe. "But I'll take your word for it. Be down in the Inn lobby, Daisy I'll be there in fifteen min utes." -"Oh, Joe, you are aweetl" said Daisy. "I'm dying to see what you look like in a bathing suit." "Some folka say I look like Jimmy Stewart," Joe kidded. "Others say I resemble the Living Skeleton when I'm wearing swimming trunks." "Joe Neely, what a thing to say!" 'Til be seeing you," said Joe Just before hanging up. Top Of The World ' TJE FELT oddly gay and care- free. Though heaven alone knew why he ahould feel that way. tie ougnt to feel lower than Hades, considering all that had happened during the past week, or rather ail that had not hap pened. Scarcely a glimpse of Kathleen. Just seeing her hurry ing here or hurrying there and nearly always with Paul Pennell. And Mr. Frank seeing almost as much of Ruby Howard. What in 'heck had come over the iVaughans, anyhow? It looked as though the only member of the household who had any sense left was Lizzie. Oh, well, the day waa too per fect for dwelling upon unpleasant matters. Laugh say clever things be gay be the life of the party if It kills you. Joe Neely! He finished his packing, grabbed tip the beach bag, and went out to his car. DAisy was waiting for him looking like something out of Vogue. Pale blue frock that d l!L:r; SENATOR IS HOST-Movle Starlet, Dorothy Srheemer (left I. former); of Cincinnati, O.. and Jetsv Parker irlchli railrd en Sen. Robert Tafl (H-Ohiol si Ihr rapltol.

A wide flop py hat that dipped here and there, giving her a little girl appearance one moment, and a look of mys tery the next. "Like me in this get-up?" said Daisy. "I certainly do," said Joe. "Only don't call it a 'get-up.' It's too beautiful for such a description." "Thanks, Joe!" said Daisy. "Now you've added the perfect touch to a perfect day." They drove out of town, and turned into the road which led to the old Vaushar farm. Joe rec ognized a number of town people heading the same way. "Looks like old home week," he said, "or time for the County Fair." , "The vaushans eertalnlv must 'be well-fixed," said Daisy, "to be able to entertain ao lavishly. "There's nothing lavish about giving a barbecue,' said Joe. "Just a lot of hard work." "But all those people!" There're to be only about thirty guests in all That's not so many. "Goodness, Joe, honey, If I had to cook for that many people I'd just curl up and die. "And that," ' said Joe, "would be just too bad. You look too al luring to curl up and die, Daisy, honey." Proposal, From Daisy mT0 YOU really think I look al. - luring?" Daisy said very softly. "You bet I do!" said Joe. They drove along in silence for a while. Daisy hummed presently, a popular love aong. Listening to her, Joe was reminded of a girl who sang over the radio. "Were you terribly hard on me In the review of 'Let's Call on Letty'?" Daisy asked suddenly. "Of course not," said Joe. "1 tried to do right by our little Daisy." "Sweet sweet Joe." "Oh. no, nothing like that. Jus) too soft-hearted, I suppose, to be a genuine George Jean Nathan ot a Brooks Atkinson." "Will there be a part for me In your plav?" Daisy wanted to know. "The play Ruby's inter ested In." "There may be." "And will you speak a good word for me to Ruby?" "I don't think that would do any good," said Joe. "Ruby knows all about you already." "But if the playwright recom mends me, it will help." Joe chuckled. "We're certalnls crossing our bridges a long tim Deiore we get to them," he said. "Ruby hasn't even read the play yet." Daisy sighed. "How nice II would be," she mused, "if ac tresses weren't so terribly jealous of each other." "Are they?" said Joe. "They certainly are. Ruby Is always so afraid I'll spoil one ol her scenes or steal one. It makes me very unhappy, Joe, honey." "But things are like that in all lines of work people are jealous always fighting competition, and "It's worse with acting, Jo. You'll never know." "Maybe I will if I get a play on." Daisy moved closer to the young man beside her. She looked up into his face. "Joe, honey," she said, "some times I wish I were iust an or dinary girl." , "Why7 said Joe bluntly. "I mean. I wish I were lust a girl who was content to be a wife and a mother and not one with ambitiona." "Well, suppose you were? What then?" "I'd fall In love with you, that's what!" said Daisy. Joe actually jumped. "With me?" he said. "Now you're talking througn your hat. "m not, Joe. I really mean IV Joe stopped the car, then.

(JPi The International Brotherhood of Teamstert (AFL) has termed picket lines "an organizing racket" In many iiistmre an1 directed its members as a wartime measure to go through them where necessary to deliver goods. . In the June issue of the union's magazine. General Presi dent Daniel J. Tobin said: "I know many of our unions have a clause in their contract which reads that it shall not be con sidered a violation of the agree ment to refuse to deliver goods where there is labor trouble. "Let me say now, unless the international union orders you not to go through picket lines, that clause must be set aside during the period of the war. "Even in non-defense indus tries every means within your power should be used before you stop work. But the so called picket line, since the passage of the Wagner act, in many instances can be honestly called an organizing racket that isn't founded on legitimate trade unionism. "The Teamsters are consid ered just plain suckers by many of those phony organizers who get SO cents per head for new members, and the Team sters do their dirty work for them by being go weak as to refuse to observe their own laws and thereby recognize the loaf ers' professional picket line. 'How many quit to help the Teamsters?" Answer: 'None.' Phoenix Phoenix, June 3 (Spl.) rnoenix li r a n g e will meet Thursday at 8 p. m. in regular session at Grange hall.

Crump was an electrical engineer, so It waa natural that he should think of recording the weddings he performed. The ceremonies are re corded on two sides of a 10-inch disc, and a natural break comes at the time the ring Is slipped on the bride's finger. A few couiles have asked that their nuptials not be recorded, as they fear self-consciousness, but often they coma back later on their anniversaries to be remarried and have a record made. Crump's son officiates as sound engineer in the next room.
