Chapter Six ' Ward and Delia "DELIA'S around," Ward said. Ha looked very handsome in Oxford-gray but she thought hi voice seemed too casual and there was no real warmth in his smile. Remembering Perry Clarke, the glanced about Kent and Hestor were standing in one corner talking, and then she saw Delia and Perry Clarke move In from the halL Ht had a glass In one hand and Delia's arm in the other; he was talking In tently, turning slightly towards her as they walked, and Delia was apparently absorbed in what he aid. Joyce looked at Ward Allen. He had seen them too, and for a mo ment his lids made narrow frames for his eyes and she saw the muscles bunch along his law, Then he had turned his back and was sipping his drink and asking what she thought of the party. As she answered she saw Delia and Clarke approach from the corner of her eye. In another second she Beara mm speax: "Ah, good afternoon, Mrs. Mur dock." "Hello," Joyce said. "Delia? "Hello. Joyce." Delia said. "Hav ing fun?" I Clarke beamed on them. Drac tlcally rocking on heels and toes He wore striped trousers and a black coat and a boutonniere; his teeth were shiny and so was his forehead: to Joyce it seemed that even his mustache gleamed at ner. "Can't I get you something to at?" he asked. When Joyce ssid the guessed not. he continued to Alien, now about your can I freshen that drink for you?" "I like it the way it is' Allen aid. Clarke shrugged. The smile that Joyce naa noticed the nignt De fore lit up the depths of his eyes ana prooea at ward Alien. "Well." he said, without an noyance, "someone has to do some drinking or the partjrll go flat Excuse me." And off he went with his glass and his exaggerated shoulders. Joyce sighed faintly with relief. "I should think you might at least try to be polite." Delia was , watching ward, her eyes critical. He looKea at her, frowning. "Should I?" he said distantly. She shrugged and glanced away; then a voice beside Joyce aid: uome and talk to me, and someone took ner elDow. Dean Thorndike was in his mid die forties, six feet or more in height and correspondingly broad. His eyes were deep-set and alert and then was enough gray in hli tninning hair to make him look distinguished. "Your husband Is off with mv tar client" he said, "so it's up to you to console me. "All right" Joyce (aid. Chance Meeting There was a love-sest near and Thorndike waved her Into it. finishing his drink and putting the glass on a nearby table be fore sitting beside her. While he orjerea a cigarette. Joyce noticed that Delia and Ward remained where they were, saying nothing, their eyes avoiding each other. Not until they moved off to Join another group did she pay atten tion to what Thorndike was say ing. . "What da you think of our hostess?" "Well I hardly know," Joyce i said. "She's certainly striking looking." I Dim-Out On Coast Is Nearly Perfect Salem, Juno 24 (IP) The dim-out of the Oregon coast last night was 98 per cent effective.

Be good for busi- "I should Imagine so." Joyce said. "How did you ever get her in the nrst piacei "It is tunny how things like that happen," Thorndike said. "I met her two years ago when i was on that South American trip. We were in San Baria that's the capital of Caragua, you know and I probably wouldn't have met her at all if it hadn't been for Ward, Her husband was old Miguel Losado and that's a name that means something in Caragua. One of the Losados helped take the place away from the Span iards. They've been wealthy aris tocrats ever since. I saw her in thi hotel dining-room and one. you see her you don't forget her right away." "I should imagine not" Joyce said. Thorndike smiled. "That's right you don't I mentioned the fact to Ward and he introduced c.e. Be fore I left I'd been out to the Losados' for dinner and she asked me what I did and I told her I was an investment counselor; told her in a kidding way of course that if she ever wanted to do any thing outside of Caragua to get in touch with me. He chuckled and put out his cigarette. I "Well, she did. About three months later I had a letter from her.

Every few months until her husband died I'd get another fat draft and I've been handling it as a custody account with power of attorney ever since.

"And I suppose she must have Inherited a great deal more," Joyce said, "now that her hus band Is dead. That should make it all the better for you, shouldn't it?" "It's hard to tell. I don't know how much more she'll get, but whatever it is there probably won't be any more for me. She may very well put It all in con servative bonds. I may possibly advise her to do Just that ... By the way, Joyce, what's the matter with Ward and Delia?" "I don't know." jhe Bald. Tm sure it can't be anything serious." "I hope not." Thorndike said. "I always thought they Just about suited each other. . . . Well, I'm thirsty. How aboutrou?" "Not now. thanks," Joyce said, and rising went with Thorndike to the long serving table in the sun-room. Delia and Ward were not here either: neither was Perry Clarke. She stepped back to the doorway, saw that Kent and Hestor were still occupied with their conversa tion and moved again into the sun-room to nut down her glass. It was then that she noticed that at one end French doors led to terrace. Idly aha walked alone the rear of the house until she stood at the end of the hedie. She was still Standing in the shelter of the hedge when she became aware of the two men. How long they had been there or whether they had seen her or not she did not ..now. Apparently not since thev were moving slowly up from a gate way that led through the hedge to the service yard and street Be cause of his stature, :.e i Nntiflerf one lmmediatly as Perry Clarke, and at first glance thought the other was Ward Allen. Not until she made out the coat and ha', did she realize she was mistaken. With no intention of eavesdrop ping, yet unwilling to move, she waited as they came across the lawn. She could hear them talk ing, but their voices were so low and Indistinct that she could no! hear what was said. Now and then she eaught a gesture as they moved slowly In and out of the rectangles of light Thev were nerhana thlrtv Aul from her when they stopped.

Any 'taker Homelike Surroundings Soldiers' Main Desire While Enjoying Leave What service men like and what they don't like should be of particular interest to Jackson county residents with the approach ing arrival of U. S. armed forces at Camp White. Fun, inform ality, interesting companions, a share in planning entertainment, and food are amoi.g the many suggestions listed by the war serv ices division of WPA as "likes" for the U. S. soldier. With Mrs. C. Rease Braley and her volunteer workers lin ing up homes In Medford under the "home hospitality" service, the following suggestions will prove helpful to the local resi dents who open their homes to soldiers from time to time. The Defense Recreation committee suggested today that the list of "likes" and "dislikes" be clipped and kept on file, as a proving ground for a successful enter tainment. Keep It Informal Here's what the soldier likes: Fun, homelike surroundings, in formal surroundings with soft lights, up - to - date magazines, small puzzles -and games to pick up, something to do with hands upon arrival; good hostesses and hosts who smile easily, who talk to them as people, not as sol diers; to talk about home; to be let alone sometimes; to be treated as individuals; to be called by their first names; to call older hosts and hostesses by pet nicknames such as "Aunt Mary" or "Dad" Brown; girls who are good listeners and good conversationalists. Also: Girls in bright dresses, girls who look interested; food that is attractively served, to which they can help themselves; variety in food; to get out in the kitchen and help serve the food; a share in planning and conduct ing the program, to show off when ready; to use their unused skills; spontaneous programs: variety and surprises; to stand out from the crowd in a favor able light; to have helped in overcoming self consciousness by something to do with their hands; crowding, making noise, singing; personal contact activi ties, taking partners, changing partners, rhythm activities not too difficult for non-dancers; to be treated fairly; to get the thrill of success and praise. What the soldier dislikes: That comes later. Libya Defeat Brings New Dissatisfaction ' With British Chiefs By The Associated Press London, June 24 Dissatisfac tion with Britain's military leadership flared ODenlv in the house of commons Tuesday as it received its first accounting of the defeat in Libya. Although the heartening news came that Britain's desert fight- lers nave Deen reinforced and that more reinforcement are on the way, the house learned that the naval side of the Libyan strugle cost Britain seven war ships, Including a light cruiser, and 30 planes. Clement Attlee. dominion sec retary, made the report in the absence of Prime Minister Churchill in the United States, but offered little explanation of the sharp, sudden setback which pushed the British eighth army to the Egyptian border. The house, apparently deter mined to fix the blame for the defeat, cheered when conserva tive Sir John Wardlaw-Milne.

The next year he met Ingelston the match in which the "Gentleman" broke his leg. Seven years later Jackson fought Daniel Mendoia, and, according to an old account of the bout, caught Mendoia by his long hair, twisted his head around, and proceeded to smash him in the face repeatedly without Mendosa being able to return a blow. This was legal in a prise fight in those days. After his death In 1845, a handsome marble monument was erected to Jackson's memory at Brompton, England.
