When the half million dollar yatch of the president of the Pepsodent company docked at Chicago the other day, $2,500 of fine liquor was found on board. We would like to hear from Amos 'n' Andy on this matter. i The old world seems to roll right along, a few tragedies, disasters l and lot of disappointments being thrown in with the pleasures and joys coming from the thought that we are all important to the carry-ing-on of the program. Then some day it's over. President Hoover listening to the voice of public criticism, balked 1 plans to bring young Teddy Roose- ' velt home from the Philippines, so Hanford MacNider, minister to Canada and former commander of the American Legion has resigned and 1 wi 1 take the stump. We were hop- ' ing Teddy would come home. That banker out in lowa must have been the fellow with the glass eye and iron hand for he sure dealt with the bandits and would-be kid napers, running them to the woods when they tried to assault him. We would hate to ask him for a loan. The county teachers institute held here yesterday was largely attended, the addresses by Dr. Wig-

gam and Dr. Harper were warmly received. Both great students and lecturers their messages were enjoyed by the teachers and visitors. Superintendent Striker is to be congratulated on his program. A united and well planned program for home and yard beautification next year would be a fine undertaking to get underway this winter. Now is the time to plan and then results will show next spring and summer. There are several uptown sites which could be beautified and you might be surprised how much better it would make you feel if you knew you had a part in the work. Republican leaders. Including President Hoover and Everett Sanders, national chairman are not satisfied with the progress of the campaign in New York state and the oast. Some boners have been pulled and in an attempt to iron out matters before it gets too warm. Sanders has taken a hand and intends to censor most of the speeches made by ambitious candidates. Another thing that worries the campaign managers is the lack of contributions and that seems to be important so tar as keeping those magnificent Waldorf-Astoria headquarters open. Many local taxing units have surpluses, built up over a period of years, which will come in handy this year in reducing budgets. For instance, a taxing unit has $25,000 ind requires SIO,OOO to operate until the end of the year or the next tax distribution in December, at least half of the cash balance could be applied on this year's budget. As a further example it the taxing unit required $20,000 for the entire year only half of the amount would have to be raised through a tax levy. Individuals and business con cerns have used surpluses this year and those who were able to dig into a reserve fund have found it most pleasant to meet an emergency. The tax emergency is the same thing. Mayor Jimmy Walker upset the apple cart and stalled things abuzzing when he resigned as mayor >f New York City, in face of the ouster charges filed against him before Governor Roosevelt. Walkerl may run again on the theory that I he seeks vindication from the people. His resignation terminates the hearing before the New York state executive and leaves much room tor discussion as far as politics go in New York state. It was a dramatic gesture and if he enters the campaign for re-election next fall it more than likely will have some bearing po'itical y. It might have been better strategy for the mayor to have resigned several weeks ago, for he would have retained any popularity that might have been lost as a result of the three week's hearing of the case. Walker has one of the greatest followings of any man in New York city and ifter he takes a rest, he may enjoy the peace and joy resulting from such a homely experience that he may decide not to jump into another hectic campaign. o British Put The Cafeteria on Wheels LONDON (U.R) —Innovations from the United States usually have hard sledding here, but the British have taken at least one such importation and developed it along original lines. They have put the cafeteria on wheels. The London. Midland. Scottish railroad has attached an experimental car of this type to its express service between Manchester and Leeds and if it proves popular will build more. Equipped with the customary “self-service" devices, the car offers the advantages of quick and inexpensive meals. The railroad officials call it a “traveling snack bar." Britsh devotion to tradition long caused abhorrence of the Idea of selecting one's food in herd-formation and being one’s own waiter. Gradually the public became convinced of the economy in time and money, and the cafeteria principle spread. o Miss Zelmu Ervin left today for Sturgeon Bay.

SYNOPSIS Young and pretty Patricia Braithwait becomes engaged to wealthy, middle-aged Harvey Blaine to relieve her father's financial situation. She hopes in vain that handsome Jack Laurence, whom she met onee—and the only man she ever wanted to kisa her—will rescue her from Blaine. In despair, she turns to Jimmie Warren, her Aunt Pamela's husband. They become infatuated. Aunt Pamela blames herself for leading Pat to believe she no longer loved her husband. The fear of losing him makes Pamela realize how much she really care*. Finally. Jack arrives. Pat learns he is the son of wealthy Senator Laurence, who was kidnapped a few years ago when he went to Mexico to investigate his father's property. Pat tells him he is too late as she loves Jimmie but Jack refuses to acknowledge defeat and a bitter rivalry develops between the two men. For days Jimmie avoids Pat. Unable to stand the strain, she determines to have an understanding with him and asks him to dance with her. Overcome with emotion. Pat faints in Jimmie's arms. He is conscious of everyone's stares. When Pat comes to, Jimmie reprimands her for making fools of herself and him. CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX "Please, Jimmie, I’ve got to talk with you.” “No," he said sharply. She lifted her head, blue eyes flashing. “I will, or you’ll carry me out.” “All right,” he said grimly, and began moving toward the door. So absorbed had he been in h ; ■ passion that he had not before realized that he and Pat were objects of gossip and wonder. Those secretively smiling eyes had revealed the truth to him. With a sense of shock it came to him that without doubt the whole eraUny was whispering. And if he left the pavilion with her in the midst of the first dance—it simply wouldn't do. And yet. he had heard the determination in Pat’s voice. He knew she was quite capable of pretending to faint. What was Pam thinking? They had reached the Jr.or. “Pat,” he began, “I simply ean't " “Hello Pat,” Jack’s cheerful voice greeted her. He had come in while they were dancing, and arrested by the sight of their faces, feeling sure they would make a break, hoped to distract attention from their exit by going out with them, if possible. To his surprise Patricia returned his greeting with enthusiasm. “Hello Jaek. I’ve been looking for you. Come on take me out in the air. It’s beastly hot in here. Thanks Jimmie, Jack will take me out.” Warren relinquished her with mingled relief and rage. She gave Mm a look of anger and triumph ns if to say: “Well, there are other t.ien who are glad to take me out.” Warren made his way back to their table to wait for Pam who was still dancing. From beneath lowered lids her somnolent eyes had taken in the scene at the pavilion door and she breathed a prayer of gratitude for the watchful tenderness of Jack Laurence. He was always on hand at the right moment. “What am I to do." she thought. The horrible pounding within her bosom that gave her no rest, and which she sometimes thought must soon wear her heart out by sheer overwork, was pushing at her breath, so that she talked with difficulty. She dreaded the impending scene when she must return to the waiting man at her table. She feared the watching eyes of the pavilion. How can he shame me so!

But years had taught her to smile while the heart broke, to talk of gay, inconsequential things, every nerve in her body pulling to the strain of it. Angry blood darkened Arthur’s , pale face. “My God! Mrs. Warren, , how can you talk like that. Even if you don’t care for him. you’re a , woman. Don’t you care at all? Why don’t you stop it? Everybody’s talking." Oddly, she was not angry at him. , Rather, it relieved the strain she’d i been putting on herself. “What can I do?” she said in a low voice. “Pack Pat off to her father and set the whole colony laughing at me for getting jealous of a flapper? Besides I couldn’t do it. Her father , left her amply provided with money. She has as much right here as I have.” , “No, don’t send her home,*’ he said hastily. “Just tell them both i where they get off. They know that . in the end the whole thing is up to you. He can’t divorce you just because he's lost his head over another woman. All you've got to do is to give him hell and tell both of i ’em where they get off." She laughed without mirth. “Pat’s not used to being told where she gets off. as you put it. She’d simply tell me to go to the devil. And Jimmie can't be handled in that fashion." “1 wish to God we lived in the days when men kidnapped women and married them out of hand," he stormed. That night Pamela wrote Mr. Braithwait that she thought urgently he should come and get Pat She didn’t explain, but made it 1 clear that he was needed at once. i Gn their way back to the hotel Jack suggested a picnic breakfast i on the beach where they had first met. He bought a whole chicken, 1 having the man unjoint it, fruit, ' rolls, a big thermos of coffee and 1 hardboiled eggs. Hungry “as bears” ' by the time they reached their rendezvous, they proceeded at once tc set the table on newspapers also ' bought en route. After breakfast i they took off their shoes and waded i into the ocean to wash their hands “I had a wire from Dadums last night,” Patricia saicFwhen they sat i on the sand to rest. “He’s coming back — any day now He has dei cided to come here for me instead '■ of having me meet him in New ' York.” That change of plan • troubled her. ’ “Will you live in New York?” “I don’t know. Dadums wants tc i take me to Paris to study art.” “You’ll like that, won’t you?” “I don’t know. 1 did want to gc • terribly.” She looked into Jack's eyes, a hard steady light coming into hei i own, and said calmly, “This is the 1 first time in my whole life that 1 ever dreaded to see my Dadums, He’s the kindest, sweetest, dearest ’’ she broke off, her eyes holdi ing him in unblinking regard, i “Then why ”he began. She flung her arm over her face i and dropped into the sand, weeping bitterly. He sat staring down • at her a moment, then reached out and drew her up into his arms. She i did not resist him, but rested het ■ head on his brear*, sobbing and sobbing. He was not surprised by her i break. He had seen how near she , was to it for days. And his heart : throbbed in painful joy that she : had turned to him in her agony oi ; confusion and despair. He held her elose, making no efi fort to soothe her, nor questioning : When she was ready she would have it all out. Now, tears were i best. Just tears. Heavy, bittei i little-girl tears.
