Romance of Circus Still Has Appeal Even Specialized Trend of Modern Day Fails to Work Change. BY HELEN WELSHIMER Sf.A Service Stiff Writer WE are living in an industrialized, individualized, specialized, pecuniary society. The pattern of life has changed greatly during the last few years. Labor, which was once interpreted in the terms of personal service, has become an impersonal affair. Sometimes we think the heart of

the world has grown up. It would seem that this heart is now fashioned of steel. But there is one institution whose continued popularity leads us to believe that there is still a little, a very little humaneness and kindness left in the metal heart. There is one in-

Welshiifier

stitution that does not change. Each year when the green boughs burst Into pink and white riot of flowering blossoms, and country roads grow du.stry under the warming sun, the circus starts across the country with a caravan of dreams enclosed in the folds of the great white tent. Wagons Replaced True, the gypsy wagons seldom go down the rain-faded, wind-hard-ened roads now’. Modern motor cars carry the Romany people and their pots and pans and beads. More and more railroad trains are gliding into subterranean stations, thus depriving us forever of the joy of watching the last car swing around the bend in the road. But every year, when spring blows across the meadows, the circus comes back again. The wanderlust j urge seizes our hearts as this urge! once seized the hearts of Cain and j Abel, Noah and Jacob. There is a desire to seek the adventure that beckons in the big top. There is magic in the odor of roasting peanuts and sawdust rings; in the wet, sweet smell of summer grass when the dew falls thick at night; in the calls of the animals; in the crimson sheen of a dress which shines at the top of the tent w'here a trapeze performer flirts w’ith a gay and lovely death. Makes Men Remember Tittle boys love circuses because circuses are living pages from the adventure books w’hich lie open in the minds of all healthy, normal youngsters. Fathers and uncles love a circus because it makes them remember the small boys they used to be — the bashful, eager youngsters who were going to Africa to shoot lions some day; to Alaska to search for vanished gold; to the western plains to lasso cattle. It is to be hoped devoutly that the circus never will vanish down the trail where so many colorful American institutions have disappeared. After all, the dreams of W’hat w r e are going to do, the gold-touched visions that swing down from the sky when w r e are very young, are among the most beautiful things in life. Without these dreams and visions the supboard might be just as full but our hearts would be strangely bare. We have a right to an heritage of dreams. The circus with its breath of strange adventure, a breath that is tinged w’ith the odor of fresh sawdust and buttered popcorn, revives something lovely in our hearts—something lovely that got lost as we grew’ up.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN KENDALL spoke to the chauffeur, driving the car. ‘‘With so much room in front I don’t know why I must stay back here.” The young man at the wheel drove on stubbornly. There was determination in the set of his shoulders. He made no reply. Carol sat back, smiling. When she reached her destination, a handsome residence, she said carelessly, “Come for me at 1 tonight.” ‘ But I understood—” “You understood that I was staying the night with Virginia Lee. Well, I’m going to her party but I am not spending the night.” “Yes, Miss Kendall. I’ll tell your mother, miss.” "You are not to tell my mother. I’ll tell her myself when I reach home.” “Very w’ell, Miss Kendall.” “You’re not quite human are you?” The blond young chauffeur merely bowed, turned the car and drove away. About 12 o’clock Carol, passing her friend, said carelessly, “Virginia. I don’t think I should stay tonight. Mother hasn’t been W’ell. I’ve phoned to have the car sent for me.” “I’m sorry. But you shouldn’t have phoned for the car. Some of us would have run you out.” “There is no reason to take anyone from the party.” A little later, with her evening wrap drawn about her, Carol was being driven home. Presently she said, “Stop the car.” This time

I neglected to tell you, in my previous article, that Mr. Thompson did not claim to make both of these hands.

South's response of five diamonds was highly ; constructive. After North’s bid of six diamonds. South was certain that North held the ace of hearts and a fit in diamonds.

she added, “Please. We might as well talk this out.” “This is so much better,” she said a moment later, seated beside the young man at the wheel. There was no reply. “You are very uncommunicative,” Carol persisted. “I don’t believe I have ever know ? n anyone more so. Is your name really Lawrence?” “Yes.” “One shouldn’t call a chauffeur Larry?” “Certainly not.” “Then I shall call you Larry.” a a a THEY drove a few minutes in silence and then Carol said slowly, “Os course you know’ I arranged this so I could drive with you. Don’t pretend you don’t. Drive any place you want, Larry, but don’t take me home.” “You are out of your head to do such a thing,” the young man spoke roughly but the car was turning from the familiar route. “I couldn't bear going on like this any longer,” Carol said. “I couldn't bear to see you playing chauffeur and believing you had me fooled. What college did you attend, Larry? And why the masquerade?” “What difference does it make?” “It makes a lot of difference to me,” Carol said. She stumbled on bravely, earnestly, "because, you see, I care.” The car’s speed was checked. It stopped suddenly and Carol was in his arms. “We’re both crazy, Carol. I should have gone away.” “I can’t believe you really love me. Anybody as wonderful as you.” “Wonderful! I disgraced my people in college. I couldn't get a decent job.” His voice was hoarse with misery. “Everything will be different, now,” Carol said. “Oh, Larry, I never dreamed it W’ould be like this!” “I tell you, it’s impossible. My famihr is poor, Carol. I couldn’t marry you.” “I know you’ll take care of me,” Carol said happily, “but if I knew you couldn’t I’d marry you just the same, Larry. I'd scrub or cook or anything to be near you.” There was only one way to answer that.

, 'ITFEST’S opening was the jack I " * of hearts. Os course the de- : clarer couldn’t take the finesse, but had to go up with the ace. He could see that he had two losing tricks, a spade and a club. If the hearts were divided 4-3, and he could drop the king of hearts, two good tricks could be established. So the declarer played a small heart from dummy. East w’ent in w’ith the king and South trumped with the three of diamonds. Now, ! of course, it looked as If the distri- ! bution in hearts was bad. However, a small trump was played and won in dummy with the king and another small heart re- | turned. But East showed out, dis- | carding a spade, and South had to I ruff. Declarer then took tw’o rounds of trump. West had to let go a spade

or club. He elected to drop the eight of clubs, so dummy also discarded a club and then the ace of clubs was led. A small club was won in dummy with the king and now the queen of hearts was cashed, East discarding the ten of clubs and the declarer the three of spades. A small spade was returned and won by declarer with the ace. The declarer now led that ti'iple squeeze card, his last diamond. West had to hold the ten of hearts, or dummy’s eight would be good. He discarded a spade, declarer dropped the eight of hearts from dummy and East was helpless. If he discarded the queen of clubs, declarer's three would be good and if he let go the nine of spades, the last two tricks would be won in dummy with the king and six of spades.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BY MARY RAYMOND a a a (Copyrisht. 193*. NEA Servlet. Inc.)

DON KENDALL drove past the big family car in the shadow of the porte cochere and then stopped his roadster in amazement. Two persons were inside, so engrossed they had not noticed his approach. He leaped out and walked slowly toward the other car. The door opened the the chauffeur stepped out. He opened the door on the other side for Don said angrily, “What in hell does this men?” and advanced threateningly. “Why you insolent—!” “Don,” said Carol in a low’ voice, “you’ll wake mother. I’ll explain later.” “Explain spooning with Lawrence!” “Larry, please go now,” Carol said. “Let me handle this.” She watched the chauffeur disappear in the darkness. “Come inside,” she whispered to her brother. Inside the great hall, they faced each other. “Tomorrow I’ll thrash him within an inch of his life and send him packing,” Don said. “Don’t be absurd,” Carol said. “He played football at college. Oh, Don, are you blind? Didn’t you know he wasn’t a real chauffeur? You’d be surprised if I told you who he is. But I’ll tell you this miich. He was mentioned for All-Ameri-can. Another year he probably would have made it.” “So that's .his story,” sneered Don. His voice rose angrily, “The dirty crook.” "I recognized him,” Carol went on. “I w’ent to school with his sister. He had heard of me, too, which gave him the idea of getting a job. After a while it was a question of taking any job he could get or stop eating. And he wouldn’t go home because his father had been hard with him.” “Lord, you’re gullible.” “Don Carol!” Mrs. Kendall’s fretful voice came from the head of the stairs. “What in the world are you talking about?” “About that damned chauffeur,” Don said angrily. Carol’s frightened eyes met his. “Lawrence!” “He was impudent to me,” Don said slowly. “Sis said I brought it on myself.” “Whether you did or not,” Mrs. Kendall said, angrily, “how dare he be impudent? Imagine you and Carol quarreling over a chauffeur.” Carol and Don went up the stairs. “Please don’t ask me what it was all about, mother. I have a wretched headache. I left Virginia’s because of it.” “Who brought you home?” “I telephoned Lawrence to come for me.” “Oh!” said Mrs. Kendall. a u WHEN Carol came to breakfast next morning Mrs. Kendall greeted her pleasantly. “Well, dear, how's the headache? Better?” “Much better, thank you, mother.” “I’m glad. By the way, dear, you may be inconvenienced a little today. I let Lawrence go for his impudence to Don.” Carol put her cup down and raised her eyes calmly to her mother’s. “He’ll probably find a job soon. He was, an excellent—chauffeur.” “But imagine being impudent to Don! Carol, you look a little pale.” “Too much night life. I’ve been having these headaches for days.” “I think Dr. Rockwood should see you, dear.” “Nonsense. All he’d say would be, ‘Carol, you must retire at 9 for a month. No dancing, a quart of milk taken in between meals, more fresh vegetables and fruit. And maybe a little trip somewhere—somewhere in the South.’ Mother, there’s an idea! Let me join Bess Lattimer for a few weeks in Miami. It would do me a world of good. And I'd like to awfully.” u n n MRS. KENDALL stared in amazement. “Os course you may go if you care to. But I am surprised, Carol. You’ll miss the Rutherford party and Jean’s house party that you were so enthusiastic about.” “Mother, darling, how you do draw on your imagination. Imagine me being enthusiastic about Jean’s house party,” Carol laughed. “I’m sure you shoudn't leave now.” “But I want to. I’m bored and not well. May I wire Bess today?” “I suppose so.” What a queer child Carol was, Mrs. Kendall thought. She hadn't seemed in the least concerned about Lawrence’s dismissal. And it was really because last night she had thought Carol was interested in him that she’d let the young man go. “I'd like to get away tomorrow,” Carol said. "But you couldn’t possibly!” “Why not? I have plenty of clothes. And Miami has shops.” ! “Os course we can do lots if we ! hurry. Do you feel equal to shopi ping?” “I feel fine.” Color had come back to Carol’s cheeks. Her eyes sparkled. Mrs. Kendall sighed. “You fairly take my breath away. I wish you weren’t quite so impulsive.” Only a week before when Bess had written, begging Carol to join her, Carol had laughed at the idea. “Imagine! I know Miami backwards, forwards, vertically and horizontally. I’d be bored to death." And there she was thrilled over going, entering with zest into planning for the trip. Really, Mrs. Kendall thought, Carol was difficult to understand. (To Be Continued)
