financial straits. Carey Carson,
who cam to the city with ambi

has also failed to make any head
way and is badly in need of a lob.
They meet often at the Pinnacle
Employment Agency and become
good friends. Then, one mora

Mr. Morpby. tells Carey of a
summer Job for a young married

f ORIS and Carey located the
door to the marriage-U-eense
bureau, and entered.
They found themselves In a
large room filled with long ta
bles and straight-backed
chairs. Tables and chairs and

What a lot of people there were,
thought Lorls. And they appeared
to be of all nationalities.
"Getting married seems to be an
International affair, doesn't it?"
remarked Carey.
Lons merely nodded. She was
experiencing a sinking sensation.
Bhe noted how happy a certain
young man looked as he grinned
down at the girl with .ilm. In

were In love. But she and Carey
It was cheating, that's what it
was, to get married for the sole
purpose of obtaining a lob. It was
wrong terribly, terribly wrong!
For a panicky moment, Lorls was
tempted to turn and run.
Then, Carey was talking to a
elerk, asking him about the re
quirements for obtaining a mar
riage license. The clerk, a pleasant
faced young man, explained every
call from the wife, Patricia. An
excited voice thrilled over see
ing snow falling for the very
first time. Pat Little is from Mel

thine, saying that It would take a
few days to meet all the require
ments. As he accompanied Carey
and Lorls to the door, he said he
would expect to see them again
soon.
"By the way." said Carey. "About
getting married. Lou of folks have
civil ceremonies, dont they?"
" "Oh. yes Indeed!" The young
man smiled and mentioned the
name of a movie actress who had
been married there the week before.
"A civil ceremony Is quick and
and patnlessl"
Carey grinned. "Two things 1
like painless marriage and pain
' less dentistry."
He and Lorls left then.
tirREN they reached the street,
W Lorls said. "Imagine that
movie star getting married without
the usual fanfare! Maybe It's a
good idea but but I still dont like
It"
"Dont like movie actresses bay
ing such a simple wedding?"
"No I dont like any one being
married In such a a eut-and-dried
fashion."
"Neither do L" said Carey.
After a moment of silence, Lorls
asked. "We'll have to have witness
es, wont we?"
"Yes two of them. I think."
"Why not ask Mr. Murphy to be
one of them?"
"Swell" said Carey. "And maybe
his wife would like to be the other
one.. He told me she had a sentl-
mental streak a mile wide."
"And they'll not talk about the
wedding, either that Is, to others.
We mustn't forget that Mr. Potter
is to be given the impression that
we've been married for some time."
Carey nodded, then smiled. "You
know, I think we're going to have
fun down there on Long Island. We
probably won't have many duties,
so we'll have lots of time to swim,
relax and enjoy ourselves."
"I hope there's a piano In the
house." said Lorls.
"There must be. Ton can prac
tice to your heart's content, and
I'll And a quiet room where I can
work on some plans I have In mind
for low-priced bungalows for the
great middle class."

tive order barring further en
listments of men between the
ages of IS and 37, inclusive,
does not affect men who apply
for naval commissions, a spokes
man said. The navy plans to
continue to grant commissions
to men of that age bracket, as
well as to men up to 50 years
of age.
A call by selective service be
fore the navy has approved an
application for commission, how
ever, automatically voids the ap
plication, Jacobs said.

them to continue in college, nor
will it enlist men pending action

tJLflTHIN a few days, the marriage
tw license bad been obtained, and
all arrangements for the ceremonj
had been made. Mr. Murphy bad
welcomed with enthusiasm the sug
gestion that he and his wife act aa
witnesses.
On the wedding morning, they
all met at the Pinnacle Agency.
Mr. Murphy had bought bouquets
for Loria and Mrs. Murphy, a flower
for Carey's buttonhole, and one for
nls own. He even insisted upon
getting a taxicab to take them all
down to the Municipal Building.
As they sped downtown, he told
Lorls and Carey. "Mr. Potter's com
ing into the office early this after
noon to meet you two. so It's a good
thing we're getting this wedding
ceremony performed this morn
ing." "Sam Murphy!" his wife exclaim
ed. "You make it all sound so so
unromantic"
"I'm sorry but, after aU, they ore
marrying for Mr. Potter, and so"
"Oh. it's all right," Carey cut In.
"We understand, dont we, Lorls?"
"Of course." said Loria, "but it's
nice of Mrs. Murphy to want to
make things seem a little more
ex normal."
"You sweet child" said Mrs.
Murphy. "II I'd had my way, you
two would have been married In our
apartment. Then we could have
had a wedding breakfast after
wards." "I'd hare Uked that," Lorls said
wistfully, "but there really wouldn't
have been time. Thank you,
though, for thinking of it."
THEY reached the Municipal
Building and. soon afterward,
they were listening to a far from
musical voice going through a hor
ribly eut-and-drted ritual in a
small chapel that seemed more like
a courtroom.
"Ooshl" Carey kept thinking.
'This is like a nightmare only
worse." He knew Lois wasn't en
joying It any more than he was.
Poor little Loria I Marrying in such
a place, and for such a reason! He
hoped she wouldn't regret It

to shut out pictures of those things

but she couldn't. She kept remem

Breathless happiness. Rice. Old

All those things, and the. torts
Raymond, was getting married In
a place that looked like a court

agency! Oh, well, maybe when It
was all over, when she and Carey
were divorced, she would marry'
again. And it she did there wat

"And now I pronounce you man
and wile." said the voice that was
far from musical.
Carey, obeying a sudden Impulse,
took Lorls In bis arms and kissed
her.
"Ohl" she said.
But she didn't pull away. She
elung to Carey, as If for protection,

someone or she'd collapse In a heap

floor.

"How perfectly sweet," cooed
Mrs. Murphy.
"Come on," said Mr. Murphy,
briskly. "We mustn't keep Mr. Pot

Carey stiffened. "No. of course
not. That wouldn't do at all."
"Santa Claus Potter awaits!"
said Lorls. feeling that, if someone
gave her the slightest push, she'd
tumble right into a mess of hysterics.
