i>e are hard to guess but any way it will soon be over. The measure to regulate trucks and buses has caused the special I session some worrit* and will probably be much In evidence the next ■ several years. When a business j reaches the proportions this one has and especially when they use the , public highways, it Is not surpris- • ing there are many differences of j opinion. The law should he care--1 fully worked out, witth fairness to i ! I every one. The American Legion now has 905,155 members which is 96.79 per < ent of the possible quote. That’s a great showing and makes it perhaps the most powerful group in the United States. One fine thing about it is tliat tl.e members are almost to a man, fine upstanding citizens, willing to tight for this nation in peace time as well as war time. They will have much-to do witli the operation of business, politics and every thing else the next couple of decades. The prices for farm products went up last week, the gains being the most satisfactory in a long while. Wheat gained three cents a bushel Saturday and oats and corn followed. It will be glorious' if this can continue for all things from the farm are about half price yet. and there will be no healthy recovery in this great nation until the farmer can earn a profit for his year’s work. The Wall street market on all stocks and bonds also gained last week and that helps. Under the provisions of the new law which diverts half the gas and license money from the State Highway commission to the various counties, the money thus received can be used only for road maintainence and construction. Another act provides that no bonds can be issued for five years. This we take it will mean that the only improvements possible will be made by using the extra funds which come from the state. Certainly we must not let our roads which have cost several million dollars go to pieces and this must be taken care el first. After that if we have some left we can build new roads without issuing bonds. COURTHOUSE In the estate cf the late Rev. A. R. Fltdderjohann, application for letters of administration were filed and the petition granted. A. R. Ashbaucher was appointed and filed bond for S2OO. In the estates of Albert W. Rossman and Sophia Rossman, renoun cement of rights to act as administrator were filed by the children and a request made that the Peoples Trust and Saving company of Fort Wayne be named. Letters were issued to that institution. Mr. and Mis. Rosstnin were killed in an automobile accident two weeks ago. A new case filed here today on change of venue from Allen Superior c urt of Fort Wayne was entitled, In re estate vs. Moses B. Price. The estate, evidently a large one has been in court since October 1926 a controversy having arisen as to the diversion of the estate. The transcript covers 22 typewritten pages. Sheriff Burl Johnson reports the condition cf Mrs. Sylvia Scheele, an insane patient as quite serious. The ipast three nights she has kept every one awake with her screams | and attendants have been busy tryI ing to care for her in the best manI ner possible. 0 Rubber Bayonets For Scene London.— (U.R) -Sixteen hundred rubber bayonets, exact replicas of those used by British troops in a battle with Russian Infantry on the slopes of Inkerman in October, 1854 | are being manufactured by a Briti ish film for use in a Crimean fighting scene which will be part of j The Aidershot Tattoo," to be staged at Rushmore Arena this month. The bayonets are said to' look exactly like the real thing with their silver-grey blades and black handles. o Motorists Get Free Gass Seattle —(UP) — When a Itrge gas line truck overturned in a ditch passing motorists became the recipients of hundreds of gallons of free fuel. The truck had to empty its 3,0060-gallon container before it could be towed out. Scores of motorists stood by to dUp up the gasoline as it formed a tninature j lake. I

SYNOPSIS “Marriage is like reading a novel without suspense. No matter how charmed you may be at first with the words, a sustained effort demands little surprises, little moments of not knowing what's going to happen.” Pamela Warren informed her lovely, young niece, Patricia Braithwait, as they basked in the Palm Beach sunshine. Eight years before the wealthy Pamela had married handsome Jimmie Warren, and. in spite of an overwhelming love, their marriage had palled. Pat is shocked to learn that her father has lost his fortune. Aunt Pam suggests that Pat insure her father’s and her own future by marrying the wealthy, middle-aged Harvey Blaine, warning that the glamour of love wears off. Pat goes to an isolated spot, alone, to solve her problem, where she meets a handsome young man. CHAPTER THREE As he rose it came to her sharply that whatever happened she must not let him go until she discovered his identity. The matter seemed of high importance. “What’s your name, boy?” she demanded looking up at him with a sly smile. He dropped back on the sand, his dark face broken up in delighted twinklings. “Jack. What's yours, girl?” “Patricia. Mostly Pat.” “Mostly Pat is best.” He seemed to turn the name over in a secretive inner joyousness which lay close behind the gravity of his eyes. A submerged excitement swept her. Does he know me? Why didn’t he tell me his full name? She studied him minutely. A sensitive face, strongly markedi A wide beautiful mouth and shining black hair. Grey eyes twinkling at her out of dark face. . . . She felt herself melting toward him, reaching out to the warmth of his bittersweet smile, greeting it as one greets a familiar flower from the garden of childhood. It was as if some essential revelation trembled on the translucent air. They talked of round-robin tennis, of polo, both of which he played; of plays each had seen in New York. He knew so much about opera that she finally asked him if he were a musician. “I’ve studied piano.” Good Heavens! Surely those were not the hands of a musician. And yet, they were, if one didn’t know about those amazing palms. “But I’m not really a musician,” he added, “in the professional sense. I love it and studied for my own pleasure. I’m an architect by profession.” Well, an architect doesn’t labor with his hands, she thought. “Were you in the war?” she asked, searching for a clue to his familiar identity. His merry smile. “Mostly Pat, I’m but twenty-six. I was an infant when the great explosion occurred.” She was disappointed. She had hoped he might have ■ been a war hero. A famous and featured Ace. The thought that he might be a movie actor had already been exploded by some subtile probing which brought out that he had not seen a movie in over two years. Had never cared for them. And an actor would certainly care to see his own pictures. . . . Her mind raced this way and that. It was no use. She gave up to the charm of him. After all, what did it matter who he was? Nothing memorable was said between them, yet all was freighted with a pulsing significance. She told him about her home as happily as if it were still waiting. Indeed she had forgotten for the moment that it wasn’t. He told her of his boyhood on a big cotton plantation in Virginia. “We eall it ‘Eagle's Nest’,” he said, "and some day when I've found ”He broke off, adding

after a slight pause, “when the right girl is ready to go with me, there waits the Eagle’s Nest for us—the top of the world, you know.” A silence fell after that. Something in his eyes sent a throbbing ecstasy along her nerve centers. She was aware of a sense of new life before which all her troublings melted into formlessness, a dream shrouded in mist; trivial and unimportant. A gull flying low over the beach cawed loudly. Noting its shadow she picked up her hat and drew it reluctantly over her hair. “It's way past twelve. Are you staying—in Palm Beach?” she asked, brushing the sand from her skirt. “There's my mansion,” He indicated the tent. They fell into step, her wonder returning. Not only his face, his every gesture and expression, but the very swing of his lean bo<Ty was well known to her. ... If I had known him as a child—but no; it’s as a man that I’ve seen him Surely he won’t let me go without telling me who he is. . . . If he does —and doesn’t ask to see me again —after all that’s happened. I'll never believe it happened. . . . But what had happened? Nothing, really. . . , Only it doesn’t seem as ; if it could end like this. “Please stay for lunch.” He looked very boyish and eager. “It would be fun,” she replied hesitantly. “But my father will ■ wonder where I am.” “Doesn’t anybody know where you are?” “My cousin knows I came for a I drive.” “She’ll tell him. Lady, your ex- ‘ cuses are vain. Sit down while I 1 prepare the feast.” ’ After all, there was nothing to ■ get back for. Nothing in ail the glorious sun-drenched world to worry over. She dropped on the I sand, indolent and content, watching him make a fire of mangrove ‘ roots. He brought some newspapers from the tent. “You spread the table with these table cloths, lady. You must do something for your i dinner.” “I’m a guest,” she protested. “I’m i not supposed to work.” i “You don’t know how.” “I do. I learned everything a lady
