3 CLUBS HEAR ADVANTAGES OF LIFE INSURANCE Fundamentals Explained in Series of Talks to Local Groups. Tha fundamental* life insurance explained to three luncheon clubs this afternoon in observance of Life Insurance Week. rfarry E. McClain, state Insurance '•atnrolk&ioncr, spoke at the Caravan Club on "Interesting features of Life Insurance Contract}’’; Harry V. Wade at the American Business Club, "Security in Liie Insurance Investments,” and Wen fell P. Color, Real Estate Club, "Life Without Life Insurance.” Mr. Wade also is to give his address to the Business and Professional Women’s Club at 7 tonight in the Department Club, 17th and Meridian-sts. "A life insurance policy contract Is a bond that can never be called, and you don’t have to take down and compound the annual interest earnings because they are compounded automatically for you,” Mr. McClain said. “A life insurance policy is z protected savings account. It is the ideal thrift plan. It is semi-com-pulsory as a savings plan, and it is an unselfish savings plan because the first deposit we make buys an estate for our families.” Trusteeship of High Order Mr. Wade said: “With the safety for the funds of policyholders the first consideration of life insurance executives in whose trust insurance funds have been placed, insurance companies safeguard the funds of 63,000,000 policyholders by exercising the highest form of trusteeship through good times and bad. "This accounts for their preference for conservative investments. They have seen depressions com.* and go. They have witnessed the results to those seeking large profits and, in pursuing their course, they have met policy maturities through good times and bad. They have continued to pay dividends, to operate on a small expense margin. "They have done this while making consistently conservative investments because such investments, while returning only modest earnings. have correspondingly few losses,” he pointed out. Conservative Investments "The average man. with a few dollars to invest, is likely to seek quick profits, risking much to gain much and his large gains are all too frequently offset by heavier losses. "During all this troublesome period, the trustees of life insurance funds continue to conduct ‘business as usual’ with a sound foundation of investments that were but little affected so far as ultimate values were concerned. "The essential thing for life insurance companies is to have investments mature to meet known policy maturities, making possible safe, long term investments paying reasonable interest which are far less likely to be affected by sudden shifts in the economic structure than are short term, high profit investments.” HIGH SCHOOL CADETS ARE AWARDED MEDALS Two Pupils Win Prizes by Ability in Manual of Arms.

Peter Gardiner, newspaper reperter, helps her pet a Job writing seeiety news, l.tnda Is in Inee with Dl* Carter, bet he goes abroad to study singing. When Peter asks Linda to marry h‘m she agrees, bnt postpones the wedding. Honey Harmon, film star, comes to Newtown, making a “personal appearance” tour, and hays a scenario written by Unda. Later Linda goes to Hollywood and. by eipreasing ideas that are really Teter’s acquires a reputation for being able to discover new stars. Soon she is a celebrity. Dix Carter comes lo Hollywood to get into films as an actor. Linda trirs to help him. To please Dix, she Invites Basil Thorne, director, to her home though she dislikes and distrusts Thorne. Peter Gardiner writes a scOtfessful play and comes to Hollywood. Linda sees him and they qllarrel. Thorne drives her to a mountain resort where the company Is to begin work next day. Arriving, they find the | place deserted. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER TWENTY IT wasn't only the night that made Linda shiver, though it was bitterly cold, penetrating even the warm softness of her coat. Looking at the dark cabins and the figure of Basil Thorne, bending over his motor, she shivered again. “I’m horribly sorry,” she said, plucking at his sleeve. “I’ve made a dreadful mistake. When I got home late tonight my maid told me there we/e telephone messages but I was ir such ahurry to get out, I didn't look at them. They must have told me there was a change of plans. I can’t tell you how sorry I am about having you drive me so far to no purpose. As you said, they m ist have been unable to get here.” Thorne was tinkering with some mechanical gadget. “I’m sorry, too, Linda. Sorry for you, because it looks as though we aren’t going to be able to get out of here. This feed line is disconnected some way. I don’t know the first thing about engines or their makeup, but it doesn’t look to me as though I could do anything about it.” Linda was getting a little desperate. "Basil, we’ve got to get out. We can’t stay here all night!” a u HE lowered the hood and looked about him. “It might have been worse. At least there are cabins.” He shivered. "Sure is cold in these mountains at night.” “Can’t you do something?” she pleaded. "Can’t you tie something up somewhere, so that we can get back to Hemet?” He turned his coat collar up and shrugged his massive shoulders. His smile was properly rueful. “Not a thing with the car, I’m afraid. We might walk, but it must be nearly 30 miles to the last house, and there are mountain lions in these parts.” He hadn’t the least idea whether there were or not, and Linda didn’t know. The cold was making her bones ache and the morning seemed very far away, indeed. “The company will be out in the morning,” he said. Linda’s quick glance showed him that he hadn't helped much by that remark. 000 HE* drew her toward him in a kind, big brotherly embrace. “What would a little ribbon clerk do it she found herself in a situation like this with a prize fighter?” he asked. Linda permitted herself a very small smile. "I don’t think she’d fight,” she said. "But she might ask him what he thought it best to do.” “Thereby showing a lot ot sense for a ribbon clerk,” he answered. "Now the point is, what would he say?” He looked about him thoughtfully, and Linda felt strangely relieved. She wasn’t afraid of him anymore. "If he were a gentleman he wouldn’t ask her to walk home. He would find shelter for her, and just because I'm a director and not a prize fighter doesn’t mean that I can’t do the same. What about these cabins?” "I'll take the one with the roses climbing over the door,” Linda said with a gaiety she did not feel. 000 WE’RE all out of rases, but would an orchid bush interest you?” he asked, leading her to the nearest of the broken-down cabins. With a flashlight, they studied its exterior. It was not in-
viting. The windows were broken. Through the gapes that had been window's they saw the filth and debris within. Linda shivered and drew into the warm arms about her. "11 sit in the car while you find two habitable cabins," she told him, dreading to be alone even in the car in that overwhelming blackness and freezing outdors. He was gone 10 minutes and it seemed an hour. “There’s only one,” he reported, “with windows, bunks, a fair amount of cleanliness and a hearth. May I share it with you?” 000 SOMEWHERE in the outer darkness a penetrating wail broke the silence while he waited for her answer. Frightened, she drew close to him. “You may,” Lhe said. “Well stay up all night and talk about movies.” ”1 used to be a boy scout,” he said, among other nonsensical things, as he gathered twigs and started a fire. It was cold in the cabin, but gradually it grew warmer and Linda’s eyes grew heavy with want of sleep. They talked and talked. Later Linda couldn’t remember what they talked about. She only knew she talked with a kind of desperation to keep from wondering what would happen next, either with Thorne or with the people who would know that she spent the night with him. In Hollywood, it was no easier to explain such things than in Newtown. They were hungry, too. as the night wore on. The last thing Linda remembered before waking in the cold, dark dawn, was wishing she had some food. 000 SHE stirred in her sleep because she was cold. Her muscles were stiff. Her crepe frock was rumpled and crushed. By the early, wavering light she saw that it was nearly 5 in the morning. She didn’t remember going to sleep, and opened her eyes wider and wider to find herself on a blanket-covered wooden bunk, her own coat thrown over her and Thorne’s coat across her stockinged feet. Across the room in the grey Mght she could make out the lines of Thorne’s sleeping figure. So she had gone to sleep and he had tucked her away! That was thoughtful, but then Linda realized that the new day was on its way. That would mean that her company would soon arrive. And find her there, sharing a cabin with Basil Thorne. She couldn't be found there! Their motor was out of order and Thorne had told her it was 30 miles back to the last house. Linda threw aside the coats and stepped out gingerly on the rough, cold floor. Through the windows she saw the sky getting lighter. Better for her to be lost, not to appear with the company chan to try to explain her appearance under the circumstances. But could she get out alone? The roads, even in daylight, were unfamiliar. 000 SHE slipped into her shoes and approached Thorne. Shaking him, she cried, “Basil, please wake up. It’s nearly 5. We’ve got to get back. We would never be able to explain.” And when he was awake and had shaken the sleep from his eyes, he looked about him. “Don’t be stupid, my dear. Os course, we can explain. That’s the only thing we can do. We can't get out of here without a car. Let’s get a little more sleep and we’ll talk about it later.” H'i closed his eyes and drew the soiled blanket closer to his chin. Silently Linda watched him for a moment, and then, putting on her coat and tucking her hair under her hat, she opened the door softly and made her way out to the road. She thought she might have cried if she hadn’t been angry. Linda may have walked two miles; she thought it must have been 20. The thin soles of her shoes were small protection against the hard road. The early morning air blew in icy swirls against her, and her lips needed the soothing oil of a lipstick. She hadn’t the least idea where she was headed for or what would happen when she made an arrival, and she didn’t care. #§ Expert RADIO Repairing Phone RI-6152 for quick, expert guarat teed service on any make or any model.

AND then she heard the roar of a motor, and Thome’s white car sped down the road toward her. "A stroke of luck,” he said, coming to a stop. "Found a piece of wire and tied her up. Climb aboard, Princess.” Linda was too tired, upset and hungry to answer that or anything else he said to her, but when they were nearing a town she turned to him. "Basil I want to ask you one great favor. Please, will you turn off the main road and please, as long as you live, will you promise me never to tell one living soul about last night?” He laughed. "What a child you are! Cf course you have no need to worry. It was quite innocent. Now, I have a favor to ask of you. Will you marry me?” “Marry you!” Linda looked at him in surprise.. She didn’t like looking at him. His eyes were blurred and bleary. His beard was dark on his red cheeks. She suppressed a faint shudder of disgust. "Thanks awfully for doing the decent thing. I’m afraid I can't," she answered, and didn’t see the swift anger that flooded his cheeks with red. (To Be Continued.)

SECURITY LAW TENDS TO INFLATION, CHARGE Accountant Talks to Marketing Research Club. The Federal Social Security Act is inflationary in tendency and the price level and the balance of price relationships will be seriously threatened by its application, Charlton W. Carter, accountant, told the Marketing Research Club last night. Mr. Carter said the aims of the act could be attained through standard life insurance annuities. A 25-vear-old worker could buy a 35 per cent greater annuity with’ a guaranteed value of three times as much with the contributions he and his employer will make to the government, he said. "As the full cost of the prognm is felt there will be demands foi greater benefits and lower cost to the workers,” he said.
