Tung Oil Aids Recovery in South Development of a new industry—the production of tung oil—promises to figure importantly in the economic recovery of the south. Thousands of acres are being planted to tung trees whose blossoms yield the valuable black-brown nuts which produce tung oil. This commodity is used in manufacture of paints and numerous other lines. Until a few j\; s ago China had a monopoly on tung oil since it was *hought that the trees flourished only in the Orient, but recent experimentation proved the suitable conditions of the gulf coast states.

SYNOPSIS Gilbert Windon had been in love with lovely Denise Rendale from the moment he met her but she had eyes for no one except Keith Sheldie, handsome young playboy. However, Keith and Denise break up when the irresponsible Keith does not offer to marry Denise upon learning of her father’s financial ruin. Keith frankly explained that he was solely dependent upon his wealthy father, and to marry meant being disinherited. Despite the fact that she is bored and unhappy, Denise's sister, Felicia, suggests that Denise marry "money” immediately as she herself had done. The latter loved the late Duane Fenton but married the unexciting, though reliable Eustace Gardiner Dayne when Duane failed her. Denise accepts Gilbert on condition that the marriage be a formal one and, if at the end of a year she is not happy, he will free her. Keith does not believe she will go through with it. He resented his father’s stern dominance of his life which prevented him from doing as he pleased. Keith’s mother had run away with her music teacher when Keith was only a year old and had died shortly after. Since then, his father took his hurt out on the boy, bending him to his wilL At first Keith endured hit father’s treatment for loyalty’s sake but later because of the money he would inherit. Denise and Gilbert are to be married the week before Thanksgiving. The days passed quickly, Denise thought, but yet were empty. Five days before her wedding-day she receives a note from Keith asking her to meet him. She does, and now when it Is too late, he proposes. Much as she loves him, Denise rejects Keith, and as he leaves her he says, ‘‘Nothing is forever nowadays. I’ll wait for you.” As Denise dressed for her wedding, those words kept repeating themselves in her mind. CHAPTER XI Felicia looked at her diamond wrist-watch. “Plenty of time, still. 1 told Father to come back at five of, to take you downstairs. Do you mind having such a little wedding? Mine was so huge.” “I shouldn't like a big one.” “Well—” “You’re more nervous than I am, Felicia.” "I noticed.” “Your dress is lovely.” It was apple-green velvet, and did suit Felicia's clear pallor and brilliant hair Buperbly. “No one will notice anyone but you.” Denise didn't answer. “Nothing nowadays is forever,” and “Nothing nowadays Is forever, and “Nothing nowadays is forever,” was beating through her temples as if her heart itself was beating to that one refrain. Felicia said suddenly: "Darling, I do want you to be happy,” as if she l were pleading. , “I’ll be all right, I expect." “Gilbert is truly a first-rate perf son, if I know anything about men; and I do know rather a lot.” “Sounds like a recommendation for a butler—first-rate person.” "Denise, don’t be hard, don’t be mocking, don’t be like me.’’ Her sister’s voice was serious as Denise had never heard it. “Make up your mind to make a tremendous success of this marriage. Oh, I know, I meant to say nothing, to be carefully unintrusive; but it’s too important. Remember how most American novels end with the wedding-day, and most Continental ones begin with it? Well, have the Continental attitude, that the only interesting and significant part of your life begins today, that the rest was just a minor rehearsal.” As if she were speaking from a long •way off, Denise heard her words. She was to remember them. But now. louder, more insistent.

Allhough the Philippine trip has I not advanced to the stage where!

Mr. Roosevelt would travel the 7.164 miles from the west coast | to Manila on a navy battleship, i probably stopping briefly at Hollo- J lulu. The whole trip would cover j slightly more than 20,000 miles. If made, the Philippines would j | be the eleventh foreign country of | distant American possession Mr Roosevelt has visited since becom : 1 ing president. He has been in Canada.

(, And here’s Father, and your bouh quet I’ll arrange your train at the e top of the stair*.” i„ Denise stood up, took her father's d arm, took her bouquet. At the stairn head, Felicia preceded her. The muy sic swelled and rose, clearer and e clearer, an all-pervading grand ■j finally, its cadences blotting out any , other refrain in the mind. y Step by step she went downstairs f and through the hall.

troubling look of radiance, of confidence, upon it Then she was standing beside : him. He was taking her hand. She did not look at his face any more, : but at the familiar countenance of . the minister who had married her father and her mother. » * • • Gilbert Windon sat in the crowded 1 lounge of Grosvenor House, surrounded by high-voiced Britishers drinking tea, on a Sunday afternoon in the spring of 1935. He was waiting for Denise to return from a call on a school acquaintance who hap--1 pened to be in London at another hotel. Something might have been deI duced by an acute observer as to the ‘ relationship between Gilbert Win- : don and his wife by the fact that he was invariably early for their appointments, and she was always conscientiously punctual. He was early now, so that he had unwanted leisure to think of her who still summed up all his dreams, ; though through her he had received the gravest disappointment of his life. Six months of the year of marriage he’d asked for were done. He had had Denise’s invariably amiable companionship through all the countries of the Mediterranean, through

■ a long succession of sunlit days i against some of the most exotic backgrounds on earth. And somei times he thought he’d known her better in the time when he was no , more to her than a casual guest at her father’s or her sister’s house. How much he had hoped for in his marriage he knew by the very bitterness of that hope’s deferring. He remembered that he had laughed with genuine amusement when Denise said, “You mean a formal marriage?" and he had said, “I didn’t, but if you want it that way, so it shall be," or words like that. He had been so confident that with time, new scenes, his presence constant in them, his devotion undisguised, she would turn to him with love. From the Pyramids to Palestine, from Venice to Barcelona, she had turned to him with liking, her blue
eyes sometimes ardent with interest j in something she saw, never ardent toward him. Only, when he made any special gesture of demonstraj tiveness, her eyes, even her voice: grew terrified; and immediately be felt even worse than if she had struck him! So he was left in the undignified and rather ridiculous position of a husband not a husband. There had been days when that position infuriated him, days when he forgot it almost in genuine pleasure m Denise’s companionship, days when he decided he hated her, days when he decided she could not help not loving him, and whatever she did wa3 right, because he loved her so. Generally the situation left him in a state where he thought, resentfully, he had lost all his decisiveness. Yet the only release from that state was of necessity a gesture so ruthless and so violent that he never seriously considered making it. As near as he could come to humor over the situation was to determine that her feelings toward him were ' not quite those of a daughter to an indulgent father, but more those of a favorite niece toward an admiring uncle....
