MAKE WINTER PAY, PLEA Bu United Press TRAVERSE CITY, Mich., Dec. 23. —Method of capitalizing northern Michigan’s abundant winter snows by the introduction of winter sports on a large scale has met with the approval of the Development League of Western Michigan. Glen B. Porter, Muskegon realtor, appeared before the league with the proposal to follow the lead of Montreal, St. Paul and Minneapolis and other northern cities wwhere winter sporting events attract thousands. “We have been talking about developing our summer resources, but what about our winter resources?’’ Porter asked, “We should be capitalizing this snow'instead of tearing our hair in an attempt to get rid of It. We should study what has been done in Montreal and St. Paul and should attempt a winter development on the same scale.” NEW AIR SERVICE Bu United Press MOSCOW, Dec. 23.—Prospecting for a regular air service to the handful of Russian colonists now holding Wrangel Island, in the .Arctic, a flying ship has left Leningrad for Archangel- It is'planned to maintain a schedule flying service for the tiny outpost.

SONIA Dangerous Love *By Vida Hurst

THE STORY SO FAR SONIA MARSH leaves Stockton and comes to San Francisco to live her life as she pleases. DON STILLWATER, a young doctor, helps her get a job in the real estate oil ice o£ his - ncle, Jed Thomas. Relieving she has captivated FRANKLIN CRANE, petted young salesman, Sonia allows him to make love to her, crediting bis explanation that he cannot marry her because the breaking ot his engagement to Genevieve Erickson, a pretty society girl, might prove fatal to his invalid mother. Sonia calls for Dr. Stillwater to attend her alter an accident. Though she still loves Crane she is disgusted with him and marries Dr. Stillwater. They keep the news from all but their parents. She refuses to accompany her husband to Berlin. Before Sonia tells Crane she is married. he mentioned the breaking of his engagement. She says she will be free after Don returns. Wealthy WALTER HENDERSON whom Sonia retused to marry is found drowned. Crane is suspected, and to save him she lalsely declares she was with him that night in his Marin County shack. She sends newspaper clippings of the story to Don SAM MARSH kills himself because of Sonia’s disgrace. She is surprised to learn from her mother that Jed Thomas is Sonia’s father, but Mrs. Marsh never told her husband the truth. Sonia decides to return to work, but continues to spend the week-ends with Crane. Don wires that he is coming home. Sonia quarrels with Crane and refuses to ride with him because he is intoxicated. \ CHAPTER LXXIL / Franklin remonstrated with her, but in t ain. When he saw that she actually intended to go alone, he asked, “How are you going to get there?” “On the train to Fairfax. Then I can take the incline railroad up Manor Heights. Don’t think I don’t know how to get there. Why should I let you spoil my week-end?” “I’m sorry, Sonia. Don’t you want me to -come, too?” “No,” she replied, cuttingly. "Why should I have you lying around half drunk?” She added, “I was nice about It the first time. I didn’t say a word, did I?” “No, you were a good little l^ort.” “Well, I’m not going to be again. X don’t love you in that condition. If drinking means so much to you, why, stay here and drink.” He swayed against the table. Tears of self-pity rose to his eyes. "You’re cruel, Sonia.” "Maybe I am. There’s no use discussing it. You won’t remember what you've said tomorrow anyway.” He tried to put his arms about her, but the glassy expression of his eyes infuriated her. She pushed him into a chair. "Leave me alone. I don't want your drunken caresses.” “I know girls who aren’t so par-

ticular . . “Go find them, then. Don't waste time on me. And now go, beoause I’m locking up!" He rose, walking not too steadily. “You’ll be sorry for this . . .” “So will you. What a wonderful lover you are!” He jumped into his car and departed, furiously. And Sonia, bitter with resentment, took a street car to the ferry and, much later, arrived at the shack. The key was under the doormat. She entered, sniffing the close air. She threw open the windows and turned on the feeble light, feeling the cool balm of the place steal softly into her soul. • • • Dear little shack filled with memories that would always be sacred! She would come and rest in * her dreams. It would have been sacrilege to bring Franklin with a drunken smirk on lips that had kissed hers so tenderly. She made tea and sandwiches, feeling faint with hunger. Her eyes stared from the cracked mirror like charred holes In her white face. They frightened her, they looked so wild. As she sat by the fire she let herself relax to its friendly crackle. It hurt that Franklin should start drinking again. Why couldn't he be satisfied with their love? But was she satisfied? When had she ever felt such gnawing discomfort as she had known the last few weeks? At last, yawning with weariness, she turned out the light and went to bed. She was wakened by the panting of a car. Leaning on one arm, she looked out to see it stopping before thfe door. Even in the darkness, she was sure it was Franklin. She lay, almost suffocated with fright. Why had he conic? If he had drunk more, he might be dangerous. She knew her departure had angenprd him. What a food she had been to come here alone. It was his shack. Why shouldn’t he follow her? He jumped from the car and came to the door. His face was a white blur in the half-light. He turned the handle of the door softly. She waited until she could endure the silence no longer*. Her voice burst from her throat, “Franklin!” “Open the door, Sonia.” “No, I wont. Go away.” He came to the window and

pressed his face against the screen. Don’t be frightened, darling. I’m all right.” The tenderness In his voice reassured her. Suddenly she felt she must bring him in. She flew to the floor, flinging herself into his arms, sobbing, “I was so frightened!” He was entirely sober now. He soothed her with apologetic little pats. “Don’t cry, sweetheart. It’s no wonder you were so frightened. What a brute I’ve been.” “I hated you!” she cried, arms tight about his neck. “I swore I’d never kiss you again. What’s wrong with us, Franklin? What makes us act this way?” He was kissing her with soft, sighing kisses —kisses like a butterfly’s wing. His voice \was a song of love flooding her aching, disillusioned heart. “I love you, Sonia. I've made up my mind to stop drinking.” Her eyes were wet with tears. She held his face between her hands. “Will you do that for me, Franklin? Can you?” "Os course I can. I don’t really care so much for it, Sonia. I do it to be sociable. I can leave It alone.” She would believe him! Oh, she would! How he loved her, to come after her like this, with promises and kisses, after she had screamed jat him like a etrmagant? She swayed in his arms, feeling the room reel about her. Surely, suri-J*. It would all came right.
