WELFARE FUND DRIVE IS BEGUN BY CITY JEWS

This Year’s Quota Stepped Up 40 Per Cent Due to Greater Need. Two hundred workers are schcd':!sd t>egin solicitation today for the Jewish community’s share in the maintenance of more than 70 institutions locally, nationally and abroad. Clarence W. Efro.vmson, chairman of the Jewish Welfare Fund, announced last night at the opening of the campaign in the Kirshbaum Community Center that the increase of about 40 per cent in the 1936 goal would go largely to the relief of Jews in Germany and other European countries, and to the Jewish settlement work in Palestine. The fund goal this year is more than $68,000; in 1935 it was $50,000. Many of the workers who are to start, today heard the address of Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver, Cleveland, which formally opened the campaign, last night at the Center. Last Chapter Not Written "The oppression of the German Jews by Adolf Hitler has created the greatest crisis in Jewish history since the Crusades,” Rabbi Silver said. ‘‘A helpless community of 600,000 German Jews is being strangled to death by a medieval government. Deprived of every right of citizenship, they are likewise drinking the dregs of physical privation." Rabbi Silver urged the rallying of Jewish people all over the worlo to aid the German Jews with financial and moral support. "Hitler has not written the last chapter in the history of the Jews in Germany," he declared. “We who have studied ihe history of Judaism know that. ,The Nazi government is three years old; the Jewish race Is 4000 years old."

"Yon could marry me.” NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER THREE LINDA wasn't quite sure she had heard the words correctly. Pete himself almost doubted t,)iat he had said them—“ You could marry me.” He didn „ want, a wife. He wasn’t in love with Linda Bourne. He hadn't given any romantic thought to her. He wouldn't know what to do with a wife and if he were going to marry any girl, he would have too much self-respect to marry a girl who was accustomed to luxuries he couldn't give her. Then hp remembered that Linda was no longer an heiress to anything except trouble. Nevertheless, his overwhelming feeling was surprise that he had spoken so impetuously. Whatever Linda’s reactions were, she did not betray them. She knew why he had asked her to marry him, and she knew, too, how to reply. “That was exactly the right thing to .say to a lady in distress,” she told him, "but I am not to be outdone in gallantry. I thank you for your kind invitation and regret that I can not accept.” Then she laughed gaily. So she had thought it was only a gallant speech! Peter stifled the smallest sigh of relief. It was fdsier after that for Linda to talk to him. She had established a lighter note and the tense strain of the hour they had spent dispelled itself. She told him that she was planning to sell the house, but until it was sold she would stay on there with the housekeeper who. in time, would retire and live with a married daughter. n n u “TN the meantime.” she said, “I've 1 been thinking of things I could do. It can’t be so terribly hard to be a secretary. I've had lots of experience at the League and I thought perhaps I could get through a quick course at a business college." Peter had heard a goud many stories from girls who had lost and were unable to find secretarial jobs, but he hadn’t the heart to discourage her when he had nothing else to offer. “Or. perhaps,” Linda chattered on, “I might try to get a job coaching dramatic courses. You know— Little Theater things.” Pete was glad the subject had changed to something about which he could talk. ‘‘You’re interested in the theater, aren’t you?" “Crazy about it,” she told him, and added hastily, "Not acting, you know. I couldn’t do that. I'm not pretty.” Pete thought she was more than pretty when her face lit up with enthusiasm and that her delicate, expressive hands spoke as eloquently as her voice. f But dramatic expression, plot development—those are the things I love. I haven’t had any experience except with school clubs and things.” "And you wrote a play lor the bazaar,” he reminded her. “Oh, that!” She dismissed that. She didn’t want to think of it. It was too closely associated with the dreadful week before. nun "r\ID YOU ever do anything else J-> like that?” Pete asked her. She didn't answer him immediately. She crossed the room, unlocked the desk, and drew a sheaf of papers from it. Then she shyly resumed her seat beside him. Pete had never seen a girl who was shy, and it suddenh occurred to him that he had ne.er enjoyed himself before as much as this evening. “Yes, I have,” she answered his question finally. “I've written a movie scenario, but I’m not going to ask you to read it. I know it isn't, any good,”—and, as he reached for it, "No, please.” "Then, tell me about it,” he urged. "You’ll think it's all pretty silly, Sre N,’w 1936 Cabinet Model fF 1 " !*■; Speed Queen jQA 1 Electric Washer with IBpißHn Safety-Roll Wringer fJ'niijfßTl an exclusive feature l V onnegut's 'rj|rf 1-A E Washington. fV Imu)

but it has been fun and it's kept me from thinking . . . thinking things I didn’t want to. One day at the hair-dresser's I picked up a movie magazine. Hair-dressers have the very latest movie magazines," she answered him gravely and he said he'd have to speak to his barber that; he was getting tired of the Barber’s Manual. “You ought to. because your Big Chance may come that way! Well, I read in this magazine that there was a contest with a big prize and a job in Hollywood waiting for the winner who submits the best scenario. So I’ve been plaving with the idea.” “Finished it?” "Yes,” she said. ‘lt's finished, but I wouldn't dream of sending it.” n m u you let me read it?” Pete said winningly, and Pete could be extremely winning. "If you’d like to, but take it with you. It would embarrass me to have you read it here.” “And may I bring it back?” Pete wanted an invitation, and he didn’t know how to ask for it. “I hoped you would. I'm here now all the time.” “The country's pretty fine now. I Like to walk on Sunday?” “I'd like very much to walk on Sunday.” It was a date and, thinking of it, Pete pushed his hat a little more to the side as he walked through the quiet town, whistling on his way home. He didn’t go directly home; he stopped at a newsstand and bought all the Hollywood magazines. Linda wanted to think of him after he left. She wanted to go back, step by step, over all that had been said between them before he had surprised her by his half-seri-ous proposal, but she fell asleep thinking about Dix and wondering how much time would elapse before she heard from him. The next day she wrote to Dix on her new, black-bordered stationery. It was a little note thanking 1

I him for his expression of sympathy, and adding that, since she could not go out, she would like to have him for tea on Sunday. Linda forgot her date. mm m SHE dropped the note in the box and then went home to plan for Sunday. She must not be too sombre; she would wear a smart little black velvet frock and she would fill the house with flowers. She knew that her mourning would have a deep influence on Dix, and the enchantment of their companionship had been paced by gaiety. There were four more days until Sunday. Every time the telephone rang, Linda’s heart jumped to her throat as she took the receiver from the hook. She sorted the mail with trembling fingers and tried to put time from her mind. Dix was busy. He might not have received her note. He might be out of town. He might be ill. He wouldn’t write. He would telephone. He couldn’t disregard her note. He wouldn’t want to, she kept assuring herself with faltering belief. She dared not leave the house for fear of missing his call. The housekeeper was too old to be relied upon; that was the excuse she gave to herself. Deep in her heart, she knew her real reason was that if Dix called and said he couldn’t come on Sunday, she hoped she could make him suggest another time. On Saturday, Wilda Jennings came to see her. Wilda had been Linda’s right hand in those days that seemed so long ago. "Honey,” Wilda assured her, "none of us are having a good time, thinking about you having to stay here and all this terrible trouble. We don’t talk about anything else, and the parties don’t seem to be any fun at all without you. Don’t you miss them?” \ M M M “VTO, I don’t, but it’s sweet of In you to think about me. Now tell me all the news,” Linda answered, wondering how she could

ever have been like the other girls with nothing but parties to think about. “There really isn’t any news. Tommy is coming down from Cambridge next week-end, thank good- ; ness. And Jane Wyatt s giving a ! cocktail party. She’s always giving ! them. One tomorrow for Gracie. Oh, yes, there is news! Jane was at the movies last night with Dix Carter and he’s taking her to Glee Club concert tonight.” After that, Linda couldn’t remember anything else Wilda had told her. Dix was taking Jane Wyatt to the Glee Club concert! She shouldn’t speak quite clearly for the flood of relief that poured into her heart when Dix called her a few minutes after Wilda left. “I’ll come by for a little while around 4, Linda,” he said, and Linda placed the receiver on the hook tenderly because she loved it. The nice, kind, friendly telephone that had brought Djx back to her as she knew he would come. Pete Gardiner called her at 10 on Sunday morning. "I’ve got some wonderful news for you,” he said. "But I'll keep it until I see you* How about starting around 2 and having supper at my house? My mother asked me to invite you.” (To Be Continued) NARCISSUS FEATURES VIRGINIA GARDEN SHOW Fifteenth Annual Event Finds Many Exhibits Displayed. By United Press ALEXANDRIA, Va„ April 24.
