TIME KINDS of LOVE ® BY KAY CLEAVERI STRAHAN &Stl

BEGIN lIF.RF. TODAT ANNE CECILY and MARY-FRANCES FENWICK live with their grandparents, once wealthy, now go Imooverlshed that /r>ne a and Cecilv's earnings support the household. The sisters hare been orphaned since childhood. The grandparents are known respectively aa ROSALIE" and "ORAND" and thev Inon keeping ud pretenses ol their former wealth _ Anne. 28. and Cecllv. 22. do secretarial work and Marv-Prance*. 15. Is Mill/ in school. When the storv opens Anne has been engaged to PHILIP ECR.OYD. voung lawver, lor eight years. Cecily brings BARRY McKEEL home to dinner. It Is evident that she Is Jailing In love with him. Marv-Frances has a teleohonr call from her friend. ERMINTRUDE. who Is excited about the arrival of an actor known as EARL DE ARMOUNT. The two girls make plans to meet him. „ NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER SIX **T’M going over to stay all night A with Ermintrude,” Mary-Fran-ecs announced. ‘ Who said that you might?" “Rosalie.” “After Cecily had said you might hot, I suppose?" “I asked Rosalie first.” “Did Cecily say you might take her overnight bag with you?" "Pooh!” said Mary-Frances. "What makes you so quarrelsome here lately, Ann? cissy practically gave me this old thing the first time I asked her to borrow it.” "It isn’t an old thing at all,” said Ann. “It is a very handsome piece of luggage, and it was a gift to Cecily. If you use it, you must take tare of it.” “Quarrelsomeness,” said MaryFrances, “is just awful. I've noticed it a lot in you lately, and I'll bet ’ v “Mary-Frances, you must stop saving ‘l’ll bet’ all the time. I won't have it." “Quarreling again,” deprecated Mary-Frances, and opened the front door. “Wait,"said Ann. “It is nearly 9 o'clock. You can’t go running around alone after dark, and you know it. Phil will be here any minute now, and we’ll take you over in the car.” “ ’Sonly five blocks,” said MaryFrances, and edged through the door. "Mary-Frances. come back in here and. wait for Phil. You are not to go alone." "Stop pinching my arm. Ann Fenwick. Rosalie said I could go. I’m not going to stick around here all night waiting for your old Phil, and like as not he won’t be here for hours, and Ermintrude and I have to get our studying done, don’t we, and ” Ann heard a step outside. Phil was coming. She always told him that she never quarreled with her sisters. "Mary-Frances, honey, here’s Phil now. What makes you act like this to me when you know I had a big company dinner to get and that I’m tired?” "Angel Ann,” Mary-Frances, as susceptible as a puppy, snuggled close to her, and so Philip saw them, through the open door, in loving sisterly embrace; but his, "Hello, there,” suggested no particular enthusiasm for the tableau. He did not kiss Ann (she had derided that it was wiser for them not to kiss in front of Mary-Fran-ces), but he took her hand and squeezed it before he turned to the hall rack. # n n ANN said, “Phil, Mary-Frances is going to spend the night with her little friend. I thought we might take her over there in your car.” “Sorry,” he hung up his hat and took off his raincoat. "It’s in the garage again. I'm convinced that the piston rods are clogged.” “Oh, my word! Again?” Ann frowned and shook her head. “Should I have said ‘yet’? ” Phil often was clever; but when he couldn’t be clever he tried to be, anyway. That was a silly old joke. He kicked over his overshoes. He stood there, slicking his hair back when it didn’t need slicking, and when he should have been interested in how Mary-Frances was going to get to Ermintrude’s house. “Well,” Ann decreed, “we’ll have to walk over with her, then. It is just across to the new addition. She can’t go alone after dark. You’ll not mind walking a few blocks with Mary-Frances and me, will you?” “Not at, all,” said Phil, and began to put on his overshoes. "Delighted, of course.” He stamped his feet into them. (Oh, well, if he wanted to be silly and stiff and for-

: mal like that, let him!) Better j take your umbrella, f didn’t bring | mine. I wore my raincoat.” The rain had stopped, so Phil \ carried the umbrella under his arm, and they had gone a block before he said, "I walked over here j this evening." 1 “Walked!” Ann protested. “All j the way across the river? It's miles : from your place. What possessed | you?” “I felt like a walk. Needed the j exercise.” “But, Phil—l shouldn’t have i dreamed of dragging you right out j again, if I’d known. You must be i very tired. Why didn’t you tell J me?” Ann in the darkness, could not see him shrug: but she could hear ;it plainly in his voice as he ani swered, “Oh, well, what’s the differ- | ence? We had to bring her, didn’t I wc?” n an MARY-FRANCES, delivered safely into the Hills’ bright front hall, Ann said again, “But, dear, I wouldn’t have asked you to come over here, not for anything, if I’d known you’d walked so far.” “Not even to escort Maryi Frances?” “Phil,” she questioned, “what is the matter with you lately?" “Nothing whatever. But what is ! the matter with you, Ann?” I don’t know.” You admit that something is?” ! Well," she hesitated, it is only. 11 think, that you have been acting so sort of funny lately.” I haven’t felt sorta funny,” he said. She would not answer. She had not said sorta" like that. He was always criticising her lately. He said that she was stubborn. She was not; but since he thought so she’d give him a reason for thinking it. She would not speak again until he spoke. He was the stubborn one, said that she was stubborn. She love a man like Phil—stalking along beside her in that stupid silence, when he knew he had hurt her feelings? How could she? Perhaps she didn’t. It would be easy for her to say, “Isn’t it pleasant after the rain?” No, she would not. She might say, "Have you heard from four mother lately?” No. she would not. “Mary-Frances,” he said, "spends ever so many nights with that girl friend of hers, dosn’t she?” “Yes,” Ann admitted reluctantly. "She does go rather often. But why?” "It seems most unwise to me. Mother never allowed Elise to spend a night away from home until she went to Eugene to the university, i During the romancing, daydreaming age it is better for them to do it alone, if they have to, than it is for them to have someone to talk it all over with—makes it more real, you know.” “But Mary-Frances is only 15 years old.” "My point, exactly. It is a dangerous age. Not a woman—not a little girl. Also, unless I’m mistaken, she is badly boy-struck and at the silliest stage of it.” n a PHIL said, “Don’t misunderstand me, dear. I do like Mary-Fran-ces a lot. That is why—” “No," she interrupted, "you don’t like Mary-Frances, and you don’t like Cecily. You don’t like either one of my sisters. You never have. You don’t like them a bit. You don’t like any of us. You don’t like me—” He patted her on the shoulder. "Behave,” he said. “You Beautiful.” It was one of the old love names. He had not called her “You Beautiful” for months, and she thought that he had forgotten it. "Sweetheart?” she said. He put his arms around her and kissed her. The trees there in the yard were still shaking the gathered rain from their leaves, and drops fell like big cold tears on Ann's upturned face, but she did not notice them. “Dear, dear,” she said. “I love you so. I love you so.” He kissed her again. He had not said that he loved her, and she wished to hear it, so she said for him, “And you love me. I don’t

, see how we can quarrel when we , love each other so much. Do you?” His answer was the old complaint and apology of lowers: "Our quari rels are never with each other, dearest. They are always with exI temalß. j “If we could be away alone together, all alone, you and I, we’d have such a paradise that we’d fori get, even, that other people ever quarreled.” "Only,” said Ann, “people so seldom are—all alone, away from everything, I mean. * He brought a handkerchief from his pocket and dried the back of his neck where the raindrops had fall- ; en, and said as he put his arm around her and began to walk with her the house, “I didn't mean c. ; of this world. I meant that we could be happy here, anywhere, if we were ever allowed to make our own world alone together.” “But,” Ann questioned, “are people ever allowed to make their own worlds anywhere, Phil dear?” “We aren’t,” he answered, and stopped on the porch, Ann hoped that he would kiss her again, but he did not. He repeated, “We certainly aren’t," and opened the front door.

Dear Mr. Fixit—We need cinders for Lindwood avenue, north of East Twenty-first street to Newcastle tracks. I have tried in different ways to get co-operation in fixing this’ section. We are in the city limits, paying taxes, but don’t seem to get any city conveniences. C. G. F. Your petition for cinders has been given to Street Commissioner W. H. ship who promises to take care of it at once. Dear Mr. Fixit—Lawrence avenue between Madison avenue and Otterbein avenue Is in a very bad condition. If it is not repiared soon, it probably will be impassable this winter. This street could be put in condition by grading the loose gravel and cinders from the sides, then giving a top coating of cinders or fine gravel. Will you kindly see what can be done? B. L. P. The city street commissioners’ department has announced it will send a truck and men to University Heights this week to repair streets in that district. Mr. Fixit—A place in the 2100 block, Green Brier avenue, almost is impassable. It is the only way that people on Jefferson street have of getting into their coal sheds. Please see what can be done about it. E. J. S. This will be attended to in a few days, Street Commissioner Winship said. Dance to Follow Show By Times Special CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind., Dec. 15—Scarlet Masque, Wabash college dramatic society, will present “Adam’s Apple,” its first play of the season tonight. A dance will follow the show.

Thoar and Jason had run but a few yards when a dozen men sprang upon them and bore them to the ground. In an instant their wrists were bound behind them. Then they were jerked roughly to their feet and the Americans eyes went wide as he first saw his captors. “For the love of Mike,” he exclaimed, reverting to his native tongue, “am I dreaming? I certainly never expected to see a bunch of Spanish pirates inside the earth.”

And indeed that is what the Kosars of Pellucidar most resembled. Jason had spoken aloud and one of his captors demanded: “What language is that?” “Good old American. U. S. A.” said Gridley. Then he turned to Thoar, asking: “Surely these fellows are not the Phelians?” “No,” answered Thoar, “they are strange men such as I have never seen before.” “Back to the ship with them,” commanded he with the bushiest whiskers. “This is the man the Captain wants.”

After a short march the prisoners were hurled into a curiously shaped long boat, moored to a staunch, gnarled tree At once the weird crew shoved off and for a long time the craft floated through a swampy forest. Often it crossed wide lagoons which teemed with queer water monsters that filled Gridley with amazement. Every one but the prisoners ate and slept many times and still the river wound through the endless swamp.

Gridley wondered to what unknown destination he was going. At length the rive widened and although the landscape leaked less gloomy, he noiced the Korsars now appeared nervous and evidently on the watch fer some hidden danger. All hands that could be spared were put to the oars. Even the two prisoners were unbound and made to row. Jasoi* wondered what it was these fierce men so feared. All too soon he was to discover!
