The Play Begin
IN the tearoom Joe and Daily
found a table. A colored girl
took their orders. It was when
their lunch was before them, and
they were eating it that Daisy
brought up the subject of why
she had been so eager to see
Joe.
"If s about my poor dad," she
said.
"You mean he's drinking
again?" said Joe.
Daisy nodded her eyes filming
with unshed tears.
"Say. I'm sorry to hear that,"
aid Joe. "I was hoping he was
doing all right, since you hadn't
mentioned him in quite awhile."
"I was hoping that, too, Joe,
honey," said Daisy. "But a letter
from an old neighbor told me he
was on a regular rampage. It's
awful, getting news like that
lust when I'm about to appear
in a new play that may put me
on easy street"
"Gosh, that is too bad." Joe was
all sympathy. "I wish there was
something I could do to help."
"You can," said Daisy.
"In what way?"
"In the review of the play."
Daisy leaned across the small
table, a pleading expression upon
her pretty face. "Don't you re
member, Joe. honey, about me
saying if I made good in a Broad,
way play I could get Daddy Into
one of those cures?"
"Yes. but"
"Well, don't you see," Daisy
rushed on. "what getting a good
notice in "Goodbye. Honey Chilel'
means to me? . . ."
"Yes. I do," said Joe. "You still
think what I say will carry
weight?"
"Of course, Joe, honey espe
cially if you are good to me In
the 'Stage' article you write."
"Okay!" he said. "I'll do right
by little Daisy. Don't worry. If I
can help you with your dad, I'll
be more than glad to."
"Joe, honey," Daisy cried,
"you're simply too sweet for
words."
"Let's forget It now," said Joe,
embarrassed seeing that several
Linville "omen were staring at
him and Daisy. '"Let's talk about
something else."
"You're such a modest person,
Joe," Daisy said. 'That's what
makes me feel so terrible about
well, about Kathleen and Paul."
"Let's forget that too." said
Joe.
"All right, if you'd rather not
talk about it But if there's any
thing I can do to help, please let
me know."
"Okay, Daisy, Til let you know
and thanks."
Fraud
DAISY wanted to linger over
their coffee, but Joe told her
he had to get back to the office.
"I'll be watching for you in the
audience tomorrow night," Daisy
said, just before they told each
other goodbye.
"I'll be there, never fearl" Jo
assured her.
When he got to the Gaiette of
fice, he found Fred DeMilla wait
ing for him.
"1 stopped by to tell you about
some changes in the program for
next week. Fred said. He handed
Joe a sheet of ,japer. "Here vou
are. Though you'd like to know
as soon as possible."
T-l 1. . - A 1a. Ca-w T
kept you waiting. But I took
Daisy Doran to lunch. The poor
kid was all upset."
"What about? The play tomor
row night?"
"No. about her father."
"Her what?"
"Her father," Joe repeated.
"He's something of a drunkard,
aha tells me. And she wants to
get him in a cure."
Fred stared at Joe for a mo
ment, and then he began laugh
ing. He couldn't seem to stop.
r,What in heck's so funny?'' Joe
demanded.
E
OF HEATH ESTATE
James W. Mack, owner of a
drug store in North Powder,
Ore., announces the purchase of
Heath'i Drug Store from the
Heath estate. Mr. Mack, who
plans to make his permanent
home In Medford, is retaining
the name and personnel of the
pioneer drug firm.
Mr. Mack Is a graduate of
Oregon State college. He has
been engaged in the drug bus!
ness since 1925. the majority of
the time behind the prescription
counter. He was employed In
Portland and the Willamette
valley before going Jo eastern
Oregon 10 years ago.
Mr. Mack plans to dispose of
his North Powder store soon.
Mrs. Mack and their daughter.
Betty, who will be a student
at senior high school, will move
to Medford this summer.
"I feel fortunate." Mr. Mack
laid, "securing the services of
Jack Madigan, who has been
manager of the store for the
past two years. He has made
an excellent record and he will
continue in the same capacity
We plan 16 operate, as near as
possible, as a professional type
prescription drug store. Every
Item we have will be priced as
low as the same item anywhere
in town."
Lee Hunter, who has been
with Heath'i for five years, will
continue as pharmacist. Mrs
Emma Fredrickson is in charge
of cosmetics nod toiletries. Mr.'
L Wright; 1
1st an
Fred. "She's certainly been hand
ing you a sob-story, Joe, my
boy! . . ."
"You mean she she"
"I mean she's got no father,"
said Fr. "I've known Daisy for
years. I also knew her father. He
killed himself drinking five years
ago."
"Well. Til be !" Joe gasped.
And then he dropped down lim
ply into his chair.
At The Theatre
THE more Joe thought about
the manner In which Daisy
Doran had tried to trick him into
writing a good review of her
work, the madder he got. And by
the time he had reached the barn
theatre the next evening to see
the opening of "Goodbye. Honey
Chile!" his opinion of everything
theatrical, especially actresses,
was something he couldn't possi
bly publish in the Gazette.
It was a little early, so he
bought a drink. He was drinking
it when Mr. Frank Vaughan came
up to get one.
"Nervous?" he said to Joe.
"No. sir." said Joe. "Why
should I be?"
"So much at stake."
"I can Uke it."
"Mind if I get a seat near
yours?" Uncle Frank said, when
they had finished their drinks.
"I'd like to be close to someone
I know and like."
Joe managed to smile. "Cer
tainly 1 don t mind. Mr. Frank,"
he said. "Come on. We'll see
where my seat is. and you can ask
for one next to it."
There was a little trouble get
ting two seats together but after
some argument and explaining
the girl in the box office fixed
matters up to their satisfaction.
"Going bsck stage?" Uncle
Frank wanted to know.
"No," said Joe. "It might up
set Kathleen."
"She was pretty calm when she
left the house."
"Did Paul Pennell bring her
out?"
"No, I brought her out. But you
can take her home after the show,
if you like."
"You mean If she likes."
"Anyway I'd like to drive Ruby
In."
Joe changed the subject "Ev
eryone's going In," he said. "We'd
better follow suit."
The lights went out as though
someone had doused them all into
a tub of water. A woman gasped
at the suddenness of it Joe
caught his breath. Uncle Frank
stiffened. And the curtain went
up showing an ante-bei'un. sit
ting room so natural with all
Miss Camilla's furniture in It
that one could almost forget it
was a olay. Miss Camilla smiled
happily, and touched a friend
next to her.
"My stuff certainly looks nice,
doesn't it?" she said. "Even that
awful picture of my grandfather
the old fraud!"
"Shh!" someone said.
An actress in blackface came
out with a duster. She bustled
about humming a Spiritual An
other one came on. They had
talk about war. One was light
hearted, the other scared. Other
actresses and other actors came
and went The play was under
way.
It went on and on, overly ver
bose. Joe thought The entire first
act was pretty dull, but everyone
hoped for better luck in the next
act Anyway, in it Kathleen
Vaughan was to play her scene
with Paul Pennell. That was
I enough to make the local people
eager it, nave me curiam rise
again.
And It did.
More talk. more entering and
departing. The war was reality
now, and the boys were all tell
ing the girls goodbye. Ruby How.
srd. plaving the feminine lead,
had told Paul Pennell. the South
ern soldier, goodbye and' hur
ried off. nShe loved someone else
much better and was going for
another goodbye, a more exciting
one.

Edith Gilford Is bookkeeper for
the firm.
"Mrs. Mack and I have come
to tne point in life where we
decided we should select a place
for our permanent home and
Medford seems Ideal," Mr. Mack
said. "Due to many of the
younger drug store owners be
ing called to the colors we had
our choice of nearly every city
In the northwest. In looking
around the last two months
Medford was the only place
that completely satisfied us. We
like the people, the climate and'
the surrounding country."

Redding, Calif., June 13 (fP)
Fire of undetermined origin
swept through the Shasta Coun
ty Office building here today.
It had such a start when discov
ered and spread so rapidly that
comparatively few of its records
and equipment were saved.
Although dozens of regularly
employed workers were in the
three-story building, the alarm
was .not sounded until almost
the entire attic was ablaze.
The attic had been used for
storage purposes only.
It is a brick building about 25
years old. Among the offices it
contained were those of the
county surveyor and official
maps and records; the county
farm advisor and the agricultur
al commissioner; the agricultural
war board and the county health
nurse.
