PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, JUNE 7, 1942. E III lo,. VAvUne tff IIWniiif Chapter 22 Kiss For A Rola THE moon had evidently decid ed to be as generous aj the weather nian, and soon It was high above the trees that sur rounded the pond. Its soft radi ans ttimfrf th nnn4 intA a sheet of quick-silver. And gliding over this silvery surface moved three canoes, t Joe Neely, In one of them with Daisy Doran, felt strangely philo. aophical. He kept thinking of the six people in the three canoes as mere human atoms driving upon life's deceptive surface. Wnere would they all be this time next 1 year? i would rvauueen nave auauiru her goal? Would Daisy Doran be in a Broadway play and her father in a "cure"'? Would Paul Pennell be in Hollywood a place to which -he referred with in creasing monotony? Would Fred DeMille be direct ing another group of players in another reconstructed barn? Would Ruby Howard be starring in a play? And would he be the author of that play? Six uncertain people on life's troubled seal (It sounded almost like a poem.) Drifting drifting drifting "Are you always this quiet when you take a girl canoeing?" Daisy asked presently, smiling at Joe from the bow of the canoe, where she sat tral'ing her fingers through the water. "No," said Joe, "but but well, ao much seems at stake for us all, I feel serious." "And such a wonderful moon, too!" said Daisy. She glanced to ward the canoe in which sat Kath. leen and Paul. 'Those two" she nodded toward Kathleen and Joe "aeem to be more moved by the moon than you, Joe. honey." Joe stopped paddling for a mo ment, ana he frowned. He wished Daisy hadn't called his attention to the other couple. Paul was not paddling now. He was sitting De aide Kathleen. The canoe was tak. ins! care of itself. His frown deep. ened when he saw Paul's arms about Kathleens waist, saw ,im draw her closer closer 1 hope they remember they're In a canoe," he said. "So do I," aaid Daisy. "One feels to foolish being dumped out in the middle of a lake or 1 pond." "Are you speaking from experi ence?" said Joe. "Yes, Joe, honey, I am," she ac knowledged. "Last summer a local Romeo tried to make love to me in a canoe and did I get wet!" "Him, too, I suppose," said Joe. "He looked too silly for words!" aid Daisy. "And his enthusiasm fjr romance was certainly damp ened for the time being. Kid Thought JOE resumed his padding. And as he did so he found himself wish ing that Kathleen couldn't swim that the canoe would capsize and that he could play hero and rescue her. "Darned kiddish thoughts." he told himself. And then he began wishing something ainerent that the nartv w, pariy was over. In another canoe Fred and : Ruby were talking shop. "You're not going to interfere with Paul's plan to give Kathleen I role mat i it ne carries out the plan?" said Fred. Ruby shook her head. "T don't aeem to care one way or the other, Fred," she said. "Anyway, I just haven't the energy to argue with him or to fight." "What's come over you? In love or something?" "No, of course not "Thought you might be falling for Joe Ncely or Mr. Vaughan. "Nonsense! "Well, it could happen, you know." "Joe'i much too young for me, nd " "And Mr. Frank too old?" I "No, it isn't that at all. I "Then what is it?"

But her of late I don't teem to have my old enthusiasm for the theatre. It'l left me temporarily, of course but that'i the way it is." "I understand. Ruby," Fred said. "I feel the same way. At the moment 1 a rather be plowinf land of my own than anything else. It couldn't be any harder thn directing." Ruby shrugged wearily. "And if Kathleen Vaughan gets a part in the play," she said, "we'll all be up against it. Oh. well, it's all in the game. So long aa people turn barns into theatrea, there'll be stage-struck rustic maidens begging lor parts. I'm afraid you're . right" aaid Fred. "But let's not bother our heads." He dipped his paddle into the water, and the canoe shot for ward. "Let'a try to feel. the in fluence of the moonlight and get some romantic twinges." "A difficult thing to do," said Ruby, "considering neither feels romantic toward the other. Just a couple of theatrical folk, drift ing, and wondering." "I'm afraid you're right again," said Fred. "Being forty-five, and directing for pittance isn't very pleasant." "Dear, dear Fred," Ruby said tenderly. "And don't think it's any fun being thirty-seven. Just being that wouldn't be so awful but trying to be twenty-eight in real life, and twenty-five on the stage sort of complicatea matters." There's one thing I've always admired about you, Ruby," said Fred. "You're so honest I mean with me, with people who under stand and sympathize when you let down your back hair, so to speak." Kiae From Paul RUBY laughed. "What a roman tic pair we are!" she said. "We do discuss the darndest things by moonlight!M "Don't wet" chuckled Fred. Then he (topped chuckling with astonishing suddenness. "Damn." "Whafa the matter?" Ruby asked. "I just saw Paul kiss Kathleen," Fred replied. "Well, don't get so excited about it," Ruby said. "She prob ably encouraged him in order to have her way about the part in the play, you know." "Did you ever do a thing like that?" "Yea, Fred. All girls who want to get on the stage have to use allurement or what have you." "Nevertheless," said Fred. "I'd like to push Paul under the waters of this pond three times, and bring him up twice." "Murderous thoughts by moon light," said Ruby. "Or. The Moonlight Murder.'" said Fred. "Good title for a book." "Or a play." "Yes." Then they felt silent, as Fred begar, to paddle back toward shore. They kept on being silent as they passed close to the canoe in which were Kathleen and Paul Not that it mattered, since .neither Paul nor Kathleen saw v..ui ..... ..mi breathless and a little ashamed because of the kiss Paul had given her- And Paul was still feeing br,hl" bu J ;ha,ma- The wanted another. " uE,,.uw "No. Paul, please," said Kath leen. "A canoe's too wobbly " "Meaning I can have another when we are on terra firma?" s:lrl Paul. "Perhaps." Paul began paddling with In creased energy. "Then to land we shall go." "Paul," she said, "I hate to be pest, but have you decided about giving me that part?" "Yen. said Paul so promptly It gave Kathleen a little shock. "I made my decision just a little while ago right after I'd kissed you."

STORE BEAUTIES YT.ten the makeup of the man- nlkins, who pose daily In the Montgomery Ward windows, be comes thin and faded H. L. Brown, store manager, sends for Bill Birkmire, cowboy sculptor, who imparts that something un defined" which gives the cre ative artist the power to give to immobile clay the warm glow of pretended animation. Bill Birkmire who travels all over the United States every year 'is now at the local Ward beauty treatments that will make them last until the end of the war when It will again be possible to replace them with new models. "Broadway Bill" Is the name the 63 year old sculptor and world traveler prefers. He was raised from the age of 11 by "Buffalo Bill" Cody who sent him to Pans to study sculptor ing when he was 21. While with Cody Birkmire learned to ride the wildest horses and he never misses a chance to ride in a rodeo. He has won several bucking bronco contests. Statues of Theodore Roosevelt, William McKinley, William S. Hart, Abraham Lincoln, General Grant and Will Rogers are among the important pieces Birkmire has done during his colorful life. Birkmire spends short rest periods on his 1500 acre cattle ranch near Miami, Oklahoma Upper Rogue Grange Upper Rogue Grange met June 4 with the Master Herb Carlton in the chair, all other officers were also present.
