A Woman s Viewpoint BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

THE season for snapping fingers at headliners is at hand. Dr. Townsend. Huey Long. Mussolini and the criminal lawyers may as well not exist, for it’s getting along toward gardening time. Men plow already in the gray fields The upturned soil is fragrant with Its promise of harvest. Although the trees in many places appear dead, we know the sap is stirring within them. Behind the walls of millions of homes, men and women are thinking about their gardens—Just prosaic vegetable gardens It's fine if you can have fiowers —and with a handkerchief of ground any one can—but it's also something in the pot if you can dig up a patch of earth beside the kitchen door and plant some oldfashioned garden, ass.” Counting your onion sprouts is or.* way to forget the world's confusion.

does that matter? W’e have the fun of digging, planting and watching them grow’. The Good Earth is our best friend. WTien each year comes we turn back to her with renewed anticipation, thankfulness and love. That's why I say the politicians may as well pipe down. For when the folks are planting gardens the clamor of dictators and demagogues will be as remote as the roar of wind between the worlds.

When Ej-ad showed interest in having one of the white girls for his harem. Atewy pressed his point. "But you will not get one, for the sheik is going to keep them both. And you know, too. that the sheik’s share of tie diamonds will be a fourth. If there were no sheik, we should divide more!”

Shrewdly Atewy continued: “No, Eyad, we shall not fare very well—unless—" “Unless what?’’ “Unless an accident should befall sheiks even as they befall others,” Eyad announced philosophically. Thus content with the germ of their plot, the conspirators lay down and slept.

Meanwhile, with mind alert, Rhond Terry lay listening to the diminishing sounds of the camp a.,u watching the lone sentry who squatted halfdozing at the fire, his back toward her. She leaned over and whispered to Naomi: “When I get up, follow me. That's all you have to do; but don’t make any noise!”

“What are you going to do? We can t go out there in the forest —with the lions! And if the Arabs catch trying to escape, they'll kill us!” Naomi's voice quavered in rhythm with her trembling body. ‘'Shut up. and do as I tell you!” Rhonda replied sharply under her breath. “Come on! Quick!’’
