Rudolph Flesch seems to have Stirred up quite a rhubarb in Allen county by his articles on Johnny’s ability to read or not to read. He says they use the wrong methods of educating the child and perhaps they do. Whatever the results we predict remedies won’t include the comic picture books for improvement. —o—o — .2..... Experts say that never in American history has there been a fad to compare with the Davy Crockett craze which has hit the nation's youngsters. Sales of Davy Crockett hats, clothes, tents and souvenirs will total more than three hundred million dollars this year. The Mickey Mouse and Hopalong —Cassidy-—crazes—are amatures compared with the current madness, the experts reveal. 0 0 A bill to censure comic book and films and providing severe punishment to violators yesterday passed the Ohio legislative house 124 to 3. It provides fines of (1,000 and six months in jail for violators of the comic book section and fines of (5,000 for violators of the film section. It is expected to pass the senate and have an influeilcje on child delinquency. —e—o — Instead of white side-wall tires, the newest thing is to have tires made in a color to match the body of the car. Started by United States Rubber Co. in April, the fad has stretched across the nation almost as fast-as the Davy Crockett craze. There are indications that before many months, the colored tires will come as standard equipment to match the color of the body of the new auto‘SUß

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO ANOTHER day of rain and Gary Norbeck found himself waiting for Enid to come. She had said she would. He explained his eagerness in anticipating it by the fact that he had something to tell her. That Bressi was sending his canvas back to him and she could have it, if she still wanted it. He was far from discouraged by its return. Bressi had written that it was not up to others of Gary’s he had seen in the past. Gary had read the letter a dozen times since he had got it, the day before. It lay open on his work, table now and he reread some of IL "I have often wondered what had become of you. i mada a fcfllj,mquiries but no one seemed to know. Then 1 came to the conclusion that you had abandoned your painting, which possibility, when I contemplated it, gave me deep regret for I felt you had more promise than most young artists and also the will to work hard, which, put together, should have taken you far. Where is Killbuck and why are you there ? I am hoping that some day you will come to Boston and stop in to see me. 1 would like a good talk with you.” ‘‘The will to work . . That had been before Ae met Ursula. Near noon, Enid appeared in the door, a gray figure in her hood and raincoat And Gary felt the impulse to kiss her as he had before. He checked it, said: “Come in. I was looking for you!” She took off the coat, the hood, slipped out of her boots, came in, barefooted, carrying a box in her hand. "You've had your long walk?” "No, I’ve been cleaning the kitchen. And I made a pie—a lemon pie. ft was quite exciting—l never made one before.' Oh, back in school but with the domestic science teacher telling me every little thing to do. Silly to be proud of a pie, but I am! 1 gave half of it to Cindy and Aunt Jennie, but I brought the rest with me—if you'd dare eat it!”'' “Swell,” declared Gary. “How is the career coming ?" She sat down on the stool. “I am getting somewhere," she said. “By- the process of eliminating what I can’t do. I’m good with figures—my best -grades inschool were in math—l thought 1 might study to be an accountant." Gary sprang to his feet in protest “That’s too .dull!” “Figures are not dull” she countered. “They are real—they never change and you know. tfhat they are—you don’t have to guess! You put them.together—r* Gary said: “I, want something different for you!” Ho stopped abruptly. What did he want for her? Enid said: “But I think I’d like it—and isn’t it best for one to do what one can do and likes to do? You do your paintings ...” “Here — read this letter." He gave her the letter. She read it, then a second time as if she were learning something from it Then she looked up at him. “You will send him more? I mean .—a-.- . .

A. If there is no checkroom, place them on a vacant chair. If the restaurant is crowded, however, and there is a possibility that this chair may be utilized, place the packages under your own chair. Q. Is it proper for a young couple to omit the engagement ring until later daring their marriage, when they can better afford it? A. there is no question of propriety here. This is quite often done. Q. Is there any rule as to who should make the introductions at an informal home gathering—the host or the hostess? A. No. Either may do this.

—like the ones you painted before — the good ones? You’ll really work ?” “Yes, Til work! If it’s in me to do it!" Then a smile broke the soberness of his face. “Do you know, girl, that you’d be good for me? A slave driver—that is what I need!” She over 1 "file “ room. “Maybe you should go away from here—maybe you’re too shut in with yourself here to get ideas qf what you want to paint.” •That’s something to think about,” he answered. Then: “What say we eat?” As they ate, Gary told her more about Bressi. "He’s one of the best critics in the country—has a gallery in Boston. If you have anyUHng you’ve dbrie'lmng tn une nt his exhibits you’re getting places!” He told of Bressi’s kindness to him, when he was beginning to paint, Bressi’s encouragement “Everyone else thought I was a fool to chuck college so as to give all my time to painting, but Bressi didn’t” She asked, “You have a family?” “I did then. Not much of a one —a grandfather and a brother. I’ve only the brother now and he despises me, so I don’t count it a relationship.” M. Enid said: “I’m awfully confused about relationships. Ido think everyone has a right to be free! I’ve talked about it—yes, I told you I had to feel free of my mother. And now, lately, I’m worried about her—she isn’t herself at alt Maybe you can’t get wholly free of others. There are strings "Strings,” Gary repeated. “And maybe we wouldn’t like it, without them.” Enid cut the pie, and as th<jy started to eat it Enid gave a cry of disappointment "It’s awful! I must have forgotten something — put .something wrong in it! And I was so proud of it!” Then with tears in her eyes she began to laugh, and Gary laughed with her.‘‘Oh, not too bad! Let’s finish it!” “No, no! And what’ll Cindy and Aunt Jennie think of me? That I am useless . . .” “What — you a future accountant? Bet neither of them can add up a column of figures!” They washed the dishes. They disposed of the pie. “I’m going to make a good one,” Enid declared. “I found an ancient cookbook on a kitchen shelf—but next time 11l ask Cindy.” “Strings?” said Gary, smiling. “Yes, strings.” Then she put on her boots, her raincoat, her hood. "Next rainy day?” “Yes.” ’ W A letter came the next week to Hester from Anne Babbit It read: •‘Darling: “I was in too horrible a rush to write you before I left Buffalo and ySu will observe that I left before the pageant I simply was not going to stay and see Lydia Holzworth featured in a big way when it should have been you!

in Salem with my cousin Janet Price for two weeks, then going to Bar Harbor. Any chance of your joining me there ? •This Gary Norbeck you wrote to me about—the name of Norbeck was familiar to me because of the Norbeck Mills. But I never knew any at the family...! figured this man who you said had been a man-of-all-work for your uncle might be some distant, poor relation. But, NO. •The second day I was here, Janet took me to a bride luncheon —l2 women. And straight off I was introduced to a Mrs. Alec Norbeck. Incidentally, she is the most stunning gal I’ve ever seen! She sat across from me at the table and I asked her: ‘ls your husband any relation- ©4 Gary Norbeek’slShe laughed and said: “Very much of one — they’re brothers/ But when I asked her there was the queerest hush as if each bne at the table held their breath. Then, quick, one of them started talking madly about something else. I still wasn’t certain this brother and your man were the same, but before we sat down to play she came up to me and asked if were a friend of Gary’s. I said he was a friend of a friend of mine who was spending the summer in Killbuck where he lives. And she said: ’Oh, yes, Killbuck. Gary’s ridiculous, living in a place with such a name.’ So then I knew they were the same. But, Hester, I wish you could have seen her face when she said it—well, probably you’ve seen a cat’s face when it sights its prey and she looked just that way, "The moment we got home I asked Janet to give me the lowdown about it And she had it—she’s older than Mrs. Alec’s set but she gets in with them quite a bit, <■ Seems this Gary Nor beck is the black sheep of the family. Simply no good, Janet has heard some say. He wouldn’t finish college, wouldn’t go into the Mills, just hung around night clubs and cocktail lounges. Pretended to be an artist, but Janet said no one ever saw anything he had painted. He was in the Navy for a part of the war and while he was away Alec married his girt When Gary came back he went on seeing her. It was the big scandal at the time. That was when mother was living in Florida and I wasn't coming back to Salem- so I missed it all. "But there was more, Janet said. His grandfather died very suddenly and after the funeral Gary Norbeck simply disappeared. He had to disappear or else be charged with the murder of his grandfather for he had knocked the old man down! That’s your man, darling. I hope this dope is what you want It’s fantastic to think of a brother-in-law of Mrs. Alec as a farmhand but funny things do happen. If you are having the fellow do any work for you, I’d discharge him. “I ran into Hubert on the street downtown a day or so before I left Buffalo. You don’t have to worry about him—he looked very well. “ ’By now. This is a long letter for me. I’m exhausted. "Love, Anne.” # fro Be Continued; -rg®
