PAGE EIGHT "MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1943 UI SUMMER 1 WiM BEAU tfT-Jy MARGARETTA BRUCKER CHAPTER XXXVI QTHEN Nan ana Tony had "taken Deborah home, the doctor came, bound up the burns on her arms and gave her a sedative. Then, he and Tony left. Deborah lay In her bed, watching Ran movlns about the room. Bhe must know the truth would not be shielded any longer. "Please. Nan tell me about Geoff." Nan came and sat down bealde the bed. "Tony, and then the doe tor. Insisted fou shouldn't be told tonight shouldn't be worried. But I know you 11 worry ten times more If you're kept in suspense than If you're told. Geoff was Injured by a falling timber that knocked him off the Are escape. At first, they thought he was rather badly In jured but, when they got him to the hospital, they found it wasn't to serious, after all "Ob. Nan, you should have told me before! I thought, from the way you acted, that he might have been been killed." "Darling, I'm sorry. And now. If you'll behave yourself and go to sleep, you probably will be allowed to go over to the hospital to see him tomorrow." The next morning. Nan phoned the hospital and learned from Geoff's doctor that he was much better. Yes, it would be all right for Deborah to come to see him for a little while that afternoon. After Nan had gone off to work, Deborah got up and dressed. Nan had advised her to spend the morn ing In bed. but she felt too restless to lie still. AT NOON, Nan returned home. Tony brought her In his sta tion wagon and came Into the bouse with her. "Hello.- he greeted Deborah. "How are the bums?" ' "Not too bad." "You and Oeoff had a narrow es cape. My stepmother feels terribly responsible because she sent Oeoff to rescue Rosetta. Was that a laugh) Bhe feels like a fool now." "Why?" asked Deborah. "How eould she know that Rosetta wasn't In her room?" Tony stared. "Hasn't Nan told you about " Nan broke m. "Tony, yon talk too much, Deborah Is going to see Oeoff this afternoon, and he can tell her as much or as little as he wishes." Deborah looked bewildered, what on earth are you talking about?" "Never mind youU find out soon enough." Then, swiftly. Ran changed the subject. Slipping her arm through Tony's, she said lightly, "Like my future husband. Deb?" Tony's face reddened. "Oosh, Nan what a way to tell her that we're engaged!" Deborah's eyes widened. "But but I thought" Nan laughed. "I know I told yon rd turned him down. Well the fire did plenty of damage to my morale. I went cry-baby after the fireworks and let Tony know Just how much I cared for htm. Oh, we are not definitely engaged Just tentatively. Yes, Tony, we're going to leave It like that. While you're away. rJUll meet lots of girls " "None like you. If I have my way, youll wear my wings before I leave to bomb the Jerries, and if any fellow tries to nrab my girl" Tony started to put his arm around Nan, but she playfully tus sled with him for a minute, then ran shrieking from the room, with Tony at her heels. The kitchen door baiurad behind them. Laugh ter and further shrieks. Then, a Ion silence. When they returned to the living room, they were quiet, but Nan's eyes were shining. "And now," she said briskly, "how about lunch?" AFTER lunch, Tony drove the two girls to the hospital, but Nan remained outside In the ear. CIVILIAN DEFENSE SHOULD CARRY ON San Francisco, Sept. 20 (U.R) Lt. Gen. Dclos C. Emmons, commanding general of the western defense command, as serted today that all civilian de fense volunteers should carry on at their posts until military au thorities Indicate the termina tion of need for their efforts. In a letter to George L, Levin son, acting regional director of the office of civilian defense, Emmons expressed consterna tion that some trained civilian personnel In the coastal area had resigned in recent weeks. Vera Vague In Starting Sunday at the Rlalto. I a wacky, daffy comedy of war- time Washington "Get Going 'J r" -"- i r n Deborah went in, took the ele vator to an upper floor, and was escorted to Geoff's door by his nurse. "Don't stay too long. Miss Par rlsh." the nurse cautioned. Then. Deborah was Inside the room. Oeoff lay swathed In ban dages, but his dark eyes were alight with the happiness of seeing her. "Oh. Oeoff Oeoff " Bhe was beside the bed now. He smiled ruefully. "Here I am. with my arms tied down. Just when I want to use them most!" "I can use mine." Deborah's own bandaged arms went around him and her cheek was pressed against his. Then, she drew back and wiped the tears from her eyes. "Darling" he said. "Has Nan told you about about Rosetta?" "No she said you would tell me." Geoff's face darkened. "I heard about It myself only this morning. What a fool I've been! Deborah, when we were In Rosette's room last night, did you notice anything odd?" "No. What?" "Her crutches wsrs leaning against the wall in a comer. At the time, I simply thought that some one must have carried her from the room. I was stunned when I learned the truth. Deborah, she hasn't been a cripple for years has been deceiving me so that I would feel obligated to continue sending her lares sums of money." "Oh. Oeoff. how awful!" . "Moreover." he went on grimly, "during the past year she has been lavishing my money on another man a man with whom she's in love. She had the brazen audacity to refuse my reouest for a divorce when she wasn't even faithful to me! Bhe and this man planned to go on living on my money Indef initely. "Last night, she seized the op portunity of the style show to steal away and meet the fellow. Bhe left her room bv going down a Are escape outside her bathroom win dow. Incidentally, It's too bad we didn't know It was thre. Anvwey. when she came back, the hotel was In ruins. There she was without her crutches her deception ex posed. She went over to the Marvin house and. In the end, confessed everything to Margot." "Who Is the man?" asked De borah. Oeoff hesitated, then told her. "Craig Benedict." rEBORAH caught her breath. U Cralel Then, suddenly, a num ber of things became clear. The girl whom Fred had seen with Crate one nliht on the shore road must have been Rosetta. not Marianne Marvin. They were both blonde and could be mistaken for each other at a distance. And Crete's new affluence was explained. The monev had come from Rostta. not from his noHry. Yes and the an nnlntment he had at the Chelsea 8hop on the evening she had met him there must hve been with Rosetta. not with Margot Marvin, as h had said. "Well, anvway. darling." Oeoff went on. "this changes everything fnr von and me. so let's think only of that side of It. I certainly have ample grounds fnr divorce. How ever. I may not have to brine the whole uily picture Into the open m a divorce case. I msv be able sim ply to get an annulment of the marriage." Just then, the nurse opened the done and looked In. Tm sorry. Miss Parrtsh. but I think vou'd better m now." Oeoff pleaded, "Have a heart, nurse." "Well Just a few minutes more." 8h hacked ont. "Kiss me. darling," said Oeoff. "Then nt let yon go." As Deborah slloped her arms around h'm. her heart was over flowing. They must part now. nut soon they would be together for always. , . . (THE ENT (The choroc'er n this ertal ore fictitious) low.

S. Cummins, president of Copco. "Business will meet its greatest test in the conversion from war to peace economy, and lt faces a deflnlt threat those whose philosophy is op- pusea io iree enterprise," he said. He gave full assurance that the former tnha nf ,a,..U. men in the Copco organization awaii xnem alter the war, and mat xne company faces the post war era flnaneinllv anH cally strong and with a pro gressive outlook. Must Make Jobs "Businessmen must tnran. ciency in order that there will be jobs for all after the war rather than some type of public dole,'' William A. Gates told the Rotar ians.

Arthur Cannon. iMrA n..nk.- of the post-war panel, urged the raising of the standard of liv ing through increased produc tion, and expressed the opinion that business men must realize that profits will have to give way to higher wages than pre war levels and to lower prices to m consuming puDlic.

New Equipment Need Mr. Chrysler predicted that much of the equipment of his company would necessarily be improved or replaced after war time priorities and limited man ufacturing schedules are listed. Archie Pierce, head of the freight lines which bear his name, spoke optimistically of post-war business because ot prospects in the new untouched field of helicopter service for passengers and freight New de velopments in helicopters were briefly outlined and the plan ot the Pierce Auto Freight Lines to provide such services as trans portation of freight to remote mills and mines and passenger service to recreational spots was discussed.
