CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN There was an instant of silence. Patricia's eyes blazed in the pallor of her face. One hand was pressed against her heart. "You won’t,” she whispered. “I’m sorry, Patricia, but I most certainly will.” "No, Julian, no, yon couldn't be so rotten.” He winced. Incredibly, she guessed that underneath it all he wa s as wretched as herself. He had laid down an ultimatum. Still, she had never seen him less the old, triumphant Julian Havcrholt, striking his own hard bargain, exulting in his strength and in his power. This man was not exultant. He was unhappy too. “But why?” she asked him pitifully. “Why, Julian, should you try to spoil my life?” “I'm not trying to spoil your life. I’m trying to save it for you.” “You're doing no such thing,” she cried, overwrought and frantic. “You don’t like Clark. You’re jealous. You’re thinking of yourself.” His look frightened her. He was so strange and white. As he stood up she pressed back and back. The man advanced. He made no effort to touch her; he merely stopped before her and looked straight into her fearful eyes. “Os course, I’m jealous,” he said deliberately. “Why should I trouble to hide the fact? I love you, Patricia.” "I know all about your kind of love,” she told him, attempting to seem scornful and remote, but only sounding frightened. “Y o u know nothing about my kind of love. I’ve never loved a woman before as I love you. Don’t you understand, Patricia? I’m offering marriage. I want to marry you.” In other moods she might have smiled at the phrasing of this odd proposal. It was so typical of Julian. King Cophetua might so have addressed his beggar maid. Still, Patricia did not smile. Julian loved her. A strange and twisted love perhaps, but the only kind he knew. From the hall outside she heard the slow, inexorable ticking of the clock. She must say something. Her glance was stricken. She could not speak. Julian caught her hands and raised them to his lips. “I’m mad about you, darling.” “You make it hard for me,” she faltered. “It will be hard for both of us,” he admitted, scowling, jerked back to reality. Still, it had not occurred to him that Patricia might refuse. He said, “There will be a scandal naturally. But, you won’t mind that, will you, dear?” “I would mind,” said Patricia, “but I’m not accepting you.” “You’re not!” His astonisment was ludicrous. “Why not?” “Chiefly, because I don’t love you.” “You’re going to love me!” “No, Julian, you’re quite wrong.” She looked at him clearly and dispassionately. “You and I speak different languages. We think thoughts entirely different. We could never understand one another. I could no more love you than I could love an— Eskimo.” “You’re making phrases.” ‘Tm telling you the truth.”» "But, not all the truth.” His face was dark with jealousy. “Yon have got your mind on Clark, haven’t you?” “Ke'--' Clark out of this, please,” the requested, controlling her rising anger. “If I can’t have you,” he declared,

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT SATURDAY. JANUARY (>, 1931.

I 2—Anne Romey Arthur Garwlg 3—Fern E. Bierly Arthur Garwlg The essay committee made the following announcement: “The elementary schools, both public and parochial of this county submitted 132 essays for the Sugar Essay contest, while the high schools, public and parochial submilled 27. “All papers were sent to county superintendent’s office. The names of the contestants did not appear on the essay, but was written on a separate sheet of paper attached to the essay. Each essay was given a certain distinguishing mark and the sheet of paper bearing the name of the contestant was given

his expression baffled yet undefeated, “if I can’t have you, neither can Clark Tracy.” “Clark has nothing to do with you and me.” Haverholt was convinced. He walked once the length of the room. He came back and stood before her. Something in his face frightened her. “I meant what I said about Clark,”’ the man announced in lowunemotional tones. “I warn you, I meant every word that I said.” “You can’t hurt me with Clark,’’ she informed him steadily. “I’m going to tell him the truth myself—tomorrow. All that you’ve done is to force the issue. I hope,” she ended bitterly, “I hope you’re satisfied.” “It’s too late for that now, Patricia,” he remarked with a peculiar glance. He said, “I gave you a promise long ago. I take that promise baek.” “What promise?” “I told you once that I'd stand back of you. I won’t now not with Clark. I won’t lose you Patricia. I won’t lose you. I tell you I won’t.” His voice was loud. It rang in the quiet room. He whirled on her. He said all at once, “If you go to Clark with your story, I’ll go to him with mine. I can assure you that our stories won’t jibe. Mine will be a good deal less innocent than yours. We’ll let young Galahad take his choice!” “You won’t, you can’t!” Even as she spoke a sense of the futility of her own words overcame the girl. She looked at Julian with loathing and contempt and knew that nothing she could do would stay his hand. No protest, no plea, no argument could swerve him from this set intention. He was as implacable, as immovable, as relentless, as some force in nature. She was caught, trapped in he r own indecision. If she had told Clark long ago. . . . But, she had not. “That’s blackmail,” she whispered. “Call it what you like. It’s what I’m going to do. Patricia, I don’t enjoy this. I’m suffering too.” “I hope you are,” she said vic-

j a corresponding mark. "The essays were then sent out 3 to the various high school English teachers of the county for grading. ! No teacher knew whose papers he . or she was grading. Teachers who . graded the papers were asked to i rank the papers first, second and . third, etc. —first, second and third to he the prize winners. r "When the graded palters were i returned, the author of each essay ' was easily determined by finding i the corresponding code number i given the essay and the separate i sheet bearing thp author's name. I "The committee has done everyi thing: (a Rs power to conduct the i contest In a fair manner.”

iously. "I hope it kills you. I hate you. You’ve made me hate you. That’s what you’ve done!” She rose then, rose stiffly from her chair, and somehow got upstairs. Nor, did the man attempt to stop her. He had bent her to his will. He had wan his point. The girt would break with Clark; he himself had closed tocher any other course. Julian stood in the empty room, alone and frowning. Suddenly, he gave a brief and mirthless laugh He disliked his means of victory, but he had no regrets. Time cured all things, it was his cynical belief. Time and absence would make Patricia forget her infatuation for Clark. Once that was accomplished he, Julian Haverholt, would have his chance. It did not occur to him that he might have overshot his mark; that he might defeat Clark and still lose the girl. Upstairs Patricia sat down on her bed, her cold hands clasped, her eyes fixed on space. She did not cry. She was beyond tears now. She heard Haverholt come upstairs; but he stalked down the hall without pausing. How long she sat there Patricia never knew; the passage of time was nothing. Life itself seemed nothing. She felt cold and weak and ill. After a while she rose and went to her closet. She knelt, pulled out her smart pig-skin bag and started to pack her clothes. She gave that up and left the bag half-packed in the middle of the floor. Flight would not help; to leave this house would not change her situation. Once it might have. Not now. Julian would only hunt her down, chide her for her foolishness, and bring her back. She was too spent, too weary, to face a future Strug, gle. Let him win. Let him realize the emptiness of h i s victory. He might ruin her with Clark. In the end he must see that in so doing he had ruined himself -with her. It sickened her to think of that encounter in the card-room. She could think of nothing else. She undressed, got into bed, and still could think of nothing else.

If you are an average salaried employe and a small property owner, the above is a fair example of what your annual gross income tax return blank will look like when you fill it out in January to accompany your payment to the state gross income tax division at Indianapolis. Every body and every business with receipts in excess of $666.67 during the eight months from May 1, 1933, to December 31, 1933, must file a return and pay a tax before January 30, 1934. To help the small taxpayer make out his return and figure his tax. the gross income tax division has made out a sample return as shown above* for an imaginary John J. Doe who works for an imaginary concern in Indianapolis. Mr. Doe gets a salary of $150.00 a month. So on line 2 of the return he multiplies this salary by eight and inserts the total of $1,200 During the eight months, Mr. Doe traded in an old automobile on a new one and received an allowance of $75.00 on the old machine. This $75.00 was received not in cash but in value on the new car. Nevertheless it is taxable so Mr. Doe puts down $75.00 on line 4. Now Mr. Doe also owns a house which he has the good fortune to have rented to a regularly paying tenant at $40.00 a month. His income from the house is $40.00 multiplied by eight or s3Mvo which he places on line 5. That concludes Mr. Doe's list of receipts. That is all the money or the equivalent that he took in during the eight months. So his total taxable receipts, as shown on line 7, were $1,595. Under Line 8 Mr. Doe would have deducted such receipts as pensions from the United State govennnent, if he had included them in th® first line of the return. He did not need to report them at all and Line 8 could be used only if he had reported receipts that were not taxable and later wished to deduct them. However, Mr. Doe, having no

such receipts or not reporting such receipts, comes to line 9 with the total of $1,595 just like it was. He now takes his exemption of $1,090 a year but since the first annual report is only for eight months, no taxpayer can take more than twothirds of the annual exemption or $666.67. Subtracting the $666.67, Mr. Doe finds that he owes tax at one per cent on $928.33 which is in terms of tax $9.28. Now if Mr. Doe had nqt made previous tax payments to the state, he would make out a check or buy a money order for $9.28 and send it with the return to the gross income division, keeping the duplicate return which is just like the one shown above. But in the case we are considering Mr. Doe 1 paid the state $2.13 in July and $3.20 in October. So He makes these deduction, amounting to $5 - ' 33 and finds tljat he owes $3.95 in > tax. i The last step is to have the re-
