The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

v Chapter 90. A CONFESSION. . So Ruth twlated and turned in the bed. trying to get to sleep, but somehow so nervously upset by the evening that sleep was not possible. , She heard the clock that she could see in the Tower at Madison Square strike the third hour before she fell asleep. And next day she was heavy headed. There were letters from the Committee with new instructions and there were appointments she had to keep. She went through her work mechanically; then, knowing she must call upon Mrs. Cooper, she drove up there around tea time and spent a restful hour talking with that lady who, for a wonder, was alone for the afternoon. That evening she went to the theatre with the young architect and his fiancee, and came home ill. Marie kept her in bed the following morning. Sunday afternoon Myra came down. In fact, she came for lunch, and Ruth' had a dainty meal served in her living room. "It's my day off," Myra explained. "Tim stays home to look after the baby Sunday afternoons, and Saturday evening is his night out. I think that's such a broad-minded arrangement; don't you? Then we each have some time during the week when we are quite free of each other. Don't you think it's a fine idea?" Ruth didn't, but she did not say so. All she answered was: "If marriage binds, it's a failure. think both people should feel free to come and go as they choose. , I think if I ' had only one day a week when I dared o. free, I'd want to go all the other days and stay home that one! Myra laughed, her little placid, shallow, sweet laugh. - "You're so different, Ruth! Don't get contrary and hard because you are . being a successful business woman." She finished her dessert, and took her coffee curled up in a corner of the big sofa. "This reminds me of Emily's," she said. "We always ate from the tea table by the sofa, and I sat on my feet as I do now. Ruth, I want to talk to you." "Yes?" The girl quivered inwardly, half guessing what was coming. "Ruth, we've always been good friends, ever since we were kids. I had the money then, you hadn't. Do you remember when we were ready to graduate, we talked about coming to the city together, and that your only chance to be anything was to get here and learn to work?!' Ruth nodded. "I just wanted to come as a matter of fact, I never wanted to be anything but a wife. "I wanted to marry. I think I wanted to marry Tim. I have,

too." . She put down her coffee cup with an air of the greatest satisfaction a3 though, alone and single-handed, she had conquered the world. Ruth stared. - "But you weren't in love with Tim . not in those days. You were crazy about Carlton edge and about James Monroe, and half a dozen others; you used to tell me." Myra did not answer at first. Then ' she said: "Well, we always go through that thinking we're in love." She : sighed a little romantically. "But Tim was my real love. The others didn't count." "You said you would be willing to lose your right arm to have Carlton in love with you," Ruth answered with cruel memory. Myra flushed and looked annoyed. Then she evaded. "You yourself were crazy about Tim in those old days. You never said much about it, because you always were a quiet sort of person, but I could tell."

Then and there Ruth decided that perfect frankness between women was impossible. She evaded, too "I was 17, and Tim was the most attractive boy around town but really only just liked him. We were Heart Problems Dear Mrs. Thompson: How can one overcome bashfulness? I am terribly afflicted with it. H. S. Bashfulness is the result of selfconsciousness. When you are able to forget yourself in your interest for other people you will no longer suffer. Do not stay at home because of your failing. Go places and keep your miua

active observing others. By observa-!fare

tion you will be able to follow what other people are doing and after1 a .while vou will feel perfectly at ease in the society or otners. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been married 14 years. We have two girls, one nine years old and one 12. They are bright little girls and the idol of bt heart. There has been a strange coldness creeping into my life for the past two years between my wife and me. She is very thoughtless and indifferent about the happiness of the home. She is cross with me and cold and never affectionate in any way. She also likes to tell me that she does not love me. She has never been contented and has alwavs complained about being j sick, but she can go out to a show or j dance and have a lovely time. But the j minute she gets home she starts to . complain. She was cautioned by me not to be j indiscrete in various ways and she I grew angry and said I accused her of immoral conduct, which I never did. Her temper is something awful. I simply live in hell to have my little girls with me. Would you advise a separation in this case, or do you think my love for her may win her over, for I do love her. PERPLEXED. In your case I would not advise separation. You are paying dearly for lack of wisdom in your choice of a wife, but after all the woman is the mother of your children and you should sacrifice yourself to help make the home a fit place for the children. Indifference on your part might do a great deal to change your wife's attitude toward you. She Is too sure of your love. I would advise you to stay away from home more. Explana tions will not be necessary. Tell your wife the truth about where you go, but do not go into particulars. It will do her good to be curious about you. As the years pass, your wife will probably soften and become less Ir ritable. She will also outgrow her desire for dances and othtr youthful pleasures "I believe that if you face, jour trouble and do your best, happiness and contentment will come. J

good friends, and we used to read together a lot. He liked books and so did I." "I used to think he was in love with you," Myra said, looking closely at the shiny nails of her pink, plump hands. "I felt badly about it. But he wasn't. He was In love with me all along." With beautiful serenity she looked up and regarded a picture on the opposite wall. "He never loved any woman but me." Ruth then decided' that frankness between man and woman was sometimes an impossibility. She remembered the evenings by the fire in her living room at home, when Tim was there every evening. She remembered the things he said that she was the only one he ever cared for or ever would. She remembered his impetuous caresses, and how she was carried away by his love. She remembered how he had gone to the city to make money to marry

her, how they were really engaged though not "officially" as she called it. She remembered the gradually changing tone of his letters, the sudden note from Myra telling of the engagement, and the bitterness that followed when she first tried to build up her life again out of nothing with nothing but her determination. "I've always sort of thought the reason we havent been such friends," Myra went on, "was because you were still in love with Tim, and that that's why you wouldn't write." "I'm not," Ruth answered, her lips tight. But when Myra had gone, she found herself shaking all over from sheer nervousness, and without knowing why. -she threw herself down on the couch and buried her head in the pillows to cover the sound of her sobs. .

"The Lutheran church believes that the separation of church and state as provided for by our national constituI'tion is a correct principle that must not be infringed upon either by the state or the church," the memorial reads. "But it also realizes that there are certain fundamental moral questions over which the state has control and in the settlement of which the conviction of the church should be considered. "One such question is that of marriage and divorce. As the church has accepted the commission of the state to perform the marriage ceremony and as the question of uniform marriage and divorce laws , is a moral issue with vital effects upon the welof our People and the influence of "e cnurcn, i oeg isave to can to your attention to the following resolution aaopiea 31 a meeting or ine anonai .

The solution is Robert Hosea, a singing instructor, who by simple method and throat treatment has produced wonders. . An example of his work can be seen in Marilyn Miller, who last year could scarcely sing above a whisper, but this year is proving herself a singer of real ability. Mrs. J. William Souther, known around Broadway and Palm Beach as Georjrette Cohan, is another of Hosea's students. She is shown here receiving one of her lessons at the Hosea studio.

to the new Mexican export tax onjers' association over the respective

crude oil. The message, signed by! the Gulf Coast Oil Producers' Assoc!-; ation of Louisiana, the North Texas Oil and Gas Producers' association, the Oil Men's Protection Association of Oklahoma, and the Kansas Oil and Gas association, said: "We wish to call your attention to the fact that 80 per cent of this Mexican oil is coming into the United Slates duty free, and that these same interests which -are lodging the protest against Mexico's system of taxation are vigorously opposing the tax on this oil by the congress of the United States. The oil industry in th. United States Is 60 per cent shut down and hu?.dreds of thousands of men are out of work. Protest Interference "These selfish interests absorb the markets of our country with cheaply produced and cheaply transported products from Mexico, upon which they pay no taxes to this country, and ask the government of the United States to aid them in avoiamg taxation in Mexico. We must vigorously protest against the government of the United States interfering with the system of taxation on oil promulgated by the republic of Mexico or any other country, so long as that system of taxation is levied equally against all foreigners." .

Meeting Feel Project Might Not Have United Support if Located at Richmond lu J" "

CENTERMLLE, Ind., June 11. A Jon and warmly debated contest end;r ;" ,y.rf in the town hall of Centerville at the meeting of the Wayne County Breedmerits , of sites for the proposed Wayne county stock show The choice of sites lay between two. one near Richmond and one near Centerville, and propositions were presented from the . two cities stating what each would be willing to do in even of either sit being chosen. At the opening of the meeting the plans of the proposed buildings which would house the show were explained, and then reports on the sites were called for. The site near Richmond was described by Walter Fulghum, secretary of the association, and Centerville's proposition was given by Joseph Blose, Centerville banker and chairman of a committee for this purpose, the other members being Ora Dunbar and Walter Matthews. Discuss Location All of the speeches made during the evening emphasized the necessity of so locating the show grounds that the best interests of the show would be served, some, however, favoring a site near Richmond for the possible easier financing, while others argued for Centerville on the grounds of being in the center of the county geographically and more acceptable to farmers and other cities of the county than a' site near Richmond would be. j A strong speech, favorably received by the members, was made by Porter Pike, asking for the location of the show so as to interest the whole county and with consideration of the best ultimate advantages of the show, even though it might be necessary to start small and depend upon - association members for all financing. He emphasized the point that the how would be agricultural and must retain its agricultural features and farmer support, even at the expense of, some trouble in financing. Mention Cambridge. Cambridge City was once more men tioned for the show, when Bent Wilson of Jackson township said, "We are too late now to erect buildings for the show this year, and if the show must be held in buildings, Cambridge City is the only city that has them all ready for you. Otherwise the show this vear will have tai he hpld nnripr canvas. Since there would be a year! before building, I think that financing could be managed, easily, and believe that the show should be located inde-

pendent of financial arguments eonsidering the sites only from the stand points of their , location fpr.'Tahow purposes." - .r.A somewhat unexpected support for the-Richmond site developed - toward the end of the meeting, wtien the president called upon individual members and visiting stock breeders for an expression of opinion. , Favors Richmond. ' Paul Caldwell, of Connersville, particularly favored. Richmond on the grounds of financial support, citing the Connersville-free fair as an example. Andrew Kerber pointed out the neces sity of liberal financing, and expressed doubts that, farmers couW'carry the proposition -themselves. B. Caldwell on the other hand stated that breeders of his locality, (Washington township). ,. favored - ihe - Centerville location. . Frank Williams, of Williamsburg, stated that the show to be a success must have the united support of the whole county and. should be put on without any jealousy or ill feeling, saying that on financial considerations a location near, Richmond would be desirable, but that if monev could be provided for, independent, of any one city, the show should Jbe- located regardless of the financial, support. To Decide Later. The final decision of the meeting was to leave the choice to a later meeting, to be called by "the president upon request of the site committee, after further inspection and investigation of the propositions. The motion . to this effect was made by Bent-Wilson and carried unanimously; ' The site committee includes Clarence Palmer as chairman, Clyde Leverton, Charles Gifford and Lew Kinsey.
