Carer shows signs of regretting his marriage of eonwcnlenee. etehae tantlr ha goes throaih with the plan to sine with Lorts at the plana In a wayside night etna, where they win enthusiastic ap plause and the s ma tear prise. Carer complete the celebration by kissing Lorls for the Bret Urn. CHAPTER XX AS THE days grew longer and hotter, Carey began look ing upon the times he had spent with Iris Wrenahaw aa highlights In an otherwise dull existence. Lorls felt the same way about life, only the excit ing evening at the roadhouse was her solitary highlight. Carer went on with hi drawlni and big planning in the big studio room, and Lorls kept up her prac ticing. They ate, slept, cared for Pottersplace, fed the bird and fish regularly and wondered what was going to be the outcome of It all. A week passed two weeks. No word from the roadhouse manager. Nor did Carer have any word from Iris. It worried him. Was shells . carding him, as she bad those other men about whom the women at the Park Avenue club bad spoken? One day as he and Lorls were spraying Roland Potter's roses. Carey was thinking along those lines. He was utterly discouraged. Imagine coming to New York to be a successful architect, and ending up doing things to a lot of bugs on Long Island I Lorls had been eyeing him, not blind to the fact that be looked low. "If the bugs could only take a good look at your face." ah said, 'spraying wouldn't be necessary." "What's wrong with my face?" Carey asked. "It's killing," said Lorls. "That's all. It's enough to make or en a poor little bug decide that life last worth living." "Sorry." They both worked In silence for a time. When the Job of spraying was over, they sat down upon a . bench near a vine-covered wall and lit cigarettes, "By the way," said Lorls, trying to sound very casual, "what ever became of Miss Wrenahaw?" "That's what I've been wonder ing." said Carey, equally casual. "She's evlden tally done a disap pearing act." "Doe ner Interest In yon really mean so much, Carey. "Ye. Contacts like that mean a lot to any architect or would-be architect." "Then why dont you get to touch with her and not wait for her to make the next more?" "Are you sure you wont mind?" "Certainly I dont tnlndl" Lorls tried to blow a smoke ring, and suc ceeded only In looking ktasable. "Since that roadhouse manager has dropped us like red-hot Irons, you might as well look to your future. I'll see that Pottersplace Isn't neglected." "VrOUHE aweH, Lorls!" Carey said. "How about a plcnlo for three on the beach moonlight and a weenie roast?" Old Indian Still Believes He Owns Chicago Lake Front Shelbyvllle, Mich'. OJ.FB Moses Shagonaby, 88 years old. Is still waiting for the day when he can lay claim to a piece of land which he says Is his family birthright Chicago' priceless lake front snagonaDy is tne last living grandson of Mlkh'-dlu-Juh, early 19th century chief of the Ottawa Indians who staked out the lake front for his own use around 1800 and had a deed to prove tt The point Is, where Is the deed? Shagonaby reason that the paper, held by Shagonaby's brother until hi death 40 years ago, passed Into the family dis taff tribe the Pottawatomie and that some or his relatives are keepnig It from him. What more, Shagonaby fig ures they plan to keep holding out on him until he dies which Is where the old man Intends to tool them. At 88. he still Is In excellent health, Is remarkably strong and has only a few gray hairs among his coal black locks. And his father lived to be 112! Regardless of the slim chances of hi ever convincing Chicago real estate dealers of his right to the lake fornt property, Shagon , aby like to think of what ha been and what might be. Mikh'-dlu-Juh, he recall, set tled lands In what 1 now north ern Illinois at the beginning of the 19t' century. Around 1817, the tribe moved southward and eastward, but not before the Ot tawa chief had staked out hi water-front property and drawn up a contract with white settlers in the territory. Later, Mikh'-dlu-Juh signed anothei treaty with Gov. Lewi Cass of- the territory of Michigan lor landi which the tribe holds to this day. However, Chippewa and Pottawatamie chiefs were In on that deal, and that's where the tribal mix-up came In. Mikh'-dlu-Juh married Potta .KINS rT Tor three?" "You Irl Wrenahaw and my self." -Wouldn't I be the crowd r- "Don't talk like that. After all Iris thinks we are really man and wife. Inviting her to Join us would make things look right." Carer searched for words. "Maybe she's decided to drop me because you haven't been overly friendly." "What am I supposed to do?" Lorls retorted. "It was you she made a play for, not me." "I know all that but since she's probably thinking of you as an am bitious architect's wife, It would be nice for you to give her the Idea you really are a helpmate." "You mean by roasting weenies while you two talk shop I" "Of course not. I'll roast the weenie while you and Irl get ac quainted. Youll really like her, Lorls. How about tomorrow night?" "Tomorrow evening It shall be." Lorls got up. "Shall I telephone her?" "You do It. It would look better. Lorls laughed softly. "You're get ting terribly proper all of e sudden. Never mind, I understand." Tnsnks." said Carey. He walked down the garden path beside Lorls. "And don't think I'D ever forget what you've done for me." he said seriously. "If things should turn out well with bis and me. 111 see that you profit also." "A nice alimony, you meant" said Lorls. "If that' what you want" AT THK house they found mall forwarded from their rooming houses In New York. Lorls eyed a letter bearing the postmark of her old home town. Her former land lady had re-addressed tt to: MU Lorti Raymond, care Cation, Pot tertptace. Pomander Walk. Linden brook. Lima Island." "Hope It contain some good news," said Carey. "It's from an old sweetheart of mine." "Ha-ahl" said Carey. "Two timing behind your husband's back I " "He doesnt know rm married of course." Lorls sat down on the front step, and opened the envelop How odd to see Ralph Burch's handwriting after all this tune. Quietly she read through two pages of single-spaced typing. At last she folded the two sheets, and stared across the gar den, a rather odd expression upon her face. Slowly Lorls went Into the con servatory where Carey was busy with the goldfish and canaries. "You won't have to worry about me, after all." she said. Carey turned. "What do yon mean?" "I mean about my future." "Offer of a good Job?" "No. I've Just bad a proposal of marriage" "But Lorls, you're already mar ried I" "Only temporarily." "You mean the old beau back home proposed In that letter?" Lorts nodded. "The man I left behind me Ralph Burch, say tie till loves me." "What are you going to do about It?" TO keep him dangling until w finish our summer-time Job here at Pottersplace. Then I shall accept Ralph's proposal go back home, and become a plump and contented matron." "Darned If I can picture you m such a role," said Carey. "Perhaps I have versatility!" Lorls retorted. "Pardcci me while I telephone Iris Wrenahaw." rTo be continued (Th charactert In (his teriat are He tit tout 0007ns m. isu. ansdis Boats, r. watomie woman.

T CLUYAS W1UJAM3 FOR PATIENTS IN Santa Claus Visits Wards- Organizations and Indivi duals of Area Help. - Camp White (Spl.) The Christmas parties at the Camp White station hospital which brought gaiety and good cheer to the hundreds of patients on sick list were a tribute to the citizens of surrounding com munities whose friendly remem brances helped make the parties possiDie. On Christmas Eve a genial "Saint Nick" and three assist ants loaded with heaDing bas ket of gift went down the aisles of the recreation hall, their pas sage mara-ea ny eager grin at each patient broke open the col orful wrapping of his present. Other heaping baskets were car ried to the ward and distributed there to the bed patients and those who had been unable to find a seat in the overflowing recreation hall. 1500 CUts More than 1300 gifts were make available through dona tions of mony or gifts to the Camp White Red Cross from in dividuals and organization in Jackson, Josephine and Douglas counties. Members of the Red Cross Motor Corps, the Colony Club and the Apostolic Church spent many hours at the Camp wnite hospital In the days be fore Christmas wrapping the parcels in colorful variety. The recreation hall was beau tifully decorated with trees, fes toons and wreaths furnished and put up by members of the South ern Oregon Garden Clubs, and all wards were similarly decor a ted. To those were added col orful paper decorations made by the Junior Red Cross, under the chairmanship of Miss Vera Humphrey. Misses Betty Frey. Natalie Parker, Marion Knipp Ava Bean, Jeanne Hurley and Dagmar Christensen of the Jun ior Red -Cross filled and distrib uted the 1,300 Christmas stock ings given out In the patients' mess, while other members made paper table decorations and nut cups. Choir Visit Christmas Day started for the patients with carol singing through the wards by the Epis copal choir under the direction of Mrs. Royal Bebb, with accom paniment on the violin by Mrs. C. I. Drummond. . - . Carol singing also marked the close of the variety show held in the recreation hall Christmas Eve, which presented a cross section of the talented enter tainers found among the soldiers of Camp White. The special ar rangements of popular tunes by the Engineers' Band, the accoi- dian playing of Pvt. Sidney Lowe, the singing of Pvt. John Bloem, and the xylophone play ing of Pvt. Mortin Olsen pleased the ear, while the comic dancing of Pvt. Roy Wyant, the tricks of Pvt. Dock Haley, master magi cian, the tap dancing of Pfc. Colle-Brusco and his ballroom number with partner Mary Car roll delighted the eyes of the sudience. Master of Ceremonies HAP HOPPER. Washington Correspondent In the Clear!
