WEBSTER Author. of “Joretta", “Lipstick Girl” Etc. SYNOPSIS. Camilla, ‘Hoyt and Peter Anson, young and in love, marry secretly, deciding to live their own lives apart until Peter is able to provide for her. Peter is a young, struggling sculptor trying to win a competition for a scholarship abroad. and.Camilla is the adopted daughter of a wealthy. fam- ily. . She is not inherit “money when she comes of age and so is studying commercial art in the hope of landing an agency job. Others in the story -are Avis Werth, another Wealthy girl who 1s trying to win Peter. Sylvia Todd, Peter's model, and Gus Matson, his former room- rate with whom he has quarrelled. After a party at an exclusive club, when the rest of the members of the party go a a cabaret to continue the Ralety, Peter and Camilla slip off to the beach ‘by themselves and fall asleep on the sand. When they awake it is early morning and’ Avis and another boy are standing near them. This. makes {t necessary for Camilla to announce before the partv that she and Peter are married. Camilla urges Peter to accept some of her earrings to help rim along, but Peter refuses and they ovarrel. After Camilla has-gone frem the studio, ‘Avia Werth calls on4 persuades Pete= to accept 'a loan of $1,000. Peter fin- ishes his exhibit ,and'asks Avis and Camilla for suggestions as to a name for Camilla suggests “Eager Youth,” and Avis. “Inspiration”, Peter adopts the latter title and Camilla, heartsick goes to Peter's studio for quiet and to think. Peter and Avis follow later, and as’ the | didn’t know. And wondered if, tov-| Not if he had filrted with a dozen! girls and broken her heart, could she have done so terrible a thing for re- venge. No, never. She loved Peter 80 much that she would do anytitnz in the world for him. Then why should she be so revengeful just oe. cause*he had hurt her with his si attentions to Avis, to whom he falt obligated for some reason? He prob- ably exaggerated that duty~ in his own mind because he always was doing kind things for other people. Avis had managed somehow to make him believe he owed her his .srati- tude, : Camilla had known all the time) that Avis’ sole purpose in taking that ‘studio across the hall had been to Influence Peter in her favor. Why | any woman should so exert herssl? to| take another woman's husband, she| ing Peter as she did, he belonged to| another, she would still make such an effort to win him. She did not know. She was fair enough to admit that.one never knew what one would do in another's circumstances. No use to analyze al! that now. Peter's lossc_was irrevocable. She would have to comfort him as he| would permit her, and help him to! revive his hopes and dreams. Shc! would gently lead him back to the beginning again, like those brave figures.-he had portrayed in the sculpture he had made for her, Gaz- ing.at it again, its beauty and signifi- cance struck her so forcibly that she sat up quickly with a little gasp, Peter, whose eyes had been closed but not. sleeping, looked at ‘her quickly. “Peter, I have an {dea!”, she ex- claimed, and her face brightened rapidly, an “Well?” he prompted Ustlessly. ‘You must enter your immigrant group in the exhibit.

' awe Long silences and hollow, brief re- marks, like those which fill a house where death has passed, prolonged that seemingly endless night for Camilla and Peter. Neither of them slept. There was lttle to be said. Only their separate thoughts labored in a ceaseless turmoil and gained them nothing. et If it had been a problem to solve, @ difficult decision to be made, it would have been different. But thousand sleepless nights and all the thoughts of their lifetime could not efface this tragic thing that had come between them. Camilla's tired eyes watched the windows being transformed into Squares of gray patches with the ap- Proach of dawn, and the familiar objects in the room emerge from dark blots into definite shapes. The empty turn-stand mocked’ her de- risively and. deepened her pain. For contrast, the modeled group in the window stood out sharply and proud- ly against the background of~day- light. z If something had to hsppen to Peters’ work, why couldn't it have been that piece which had been broken? It would have grieved her to lose it, but not like this! Over and over, she had wondered how the thing could have happened. It lldn't seem possible that it could have been | an accident from some natural cause. | NO, it appeared to be a deliberate | act.. But who could have hated Peter like that? It was almost funny that anyone could believe she had done it —least of. all Peter. cream. paper. scald. pee te | 1° painful smarting stops“ | !

With the revival of his hopes, Avis glimpsed a faint possibility for her own, and Immediately, sponsored the neW idea. She insisted upon serving him a hearty breakfast and then driving him to the muscum with the plece of sculpture. “Do you think I would take a chance on your tripping with your last and only hope, and. breaking that?” she attempted to jest. But his mood was not responsive. He was doing this thing more for Camilla’s sake than anything. Just why, he did not know. Perhaps in memory of those first hours they had had together when life and love had lavishly promised them so much, and there had been no thought of doubts and misunderstanding. As Peter had predicted, there were more entrants than usual. Improv- erlshed students competed for that privilege which would solve so many present difficulties for them, as well as others who sought the distinction and various advantages .which the winning of such a prize would tender them. And, as ‘he had expected, nude figures in innumerable symbolic poses predominated. In fact, there were few who had ventured anything. else. There were a number of weird con- tortions after the modern vogue, a few busts’of prominent or. historic characters, some animal: and bird presentations, Fountains and gar- den pieces ‘constituted the urtistic majority, and Peter wished mightily that his youthful figure was added to their number. He might have had a chance, then, It had been gond-— better than many of them, and he believed it might have compared with the best of them. He obstinately declined to. accept Avis’ suggestion’ that they pass the afternoon at a matinee or do some- thing to take his mind from his work, and. wandered about aimlessly for awhile before he returned to the studio and the suspense of awaiting the outcome. That suspense did rot concern him so. much now, but he from most exhibit entries. Won't you please try it?” she pleaded. He moved his head to one side, negatively. “It's no use. Forget it. Perhaps next year—” * * “Peter, you have to do it,” she in- sisted gently. “You‘might even. pre- tend that you planned to. use. that one all the time and were only Joing the other figure for. sale.” “To protect you?” he mumbled. “Oh!” she cried, wounded deeply. “Then you do—believe what Avis said!” “It isn't what I think. It's what all the others think who were here, and what they will say.” “Oh, no, Peter. I am sorry if any of them believe that I-could’ be so cruel—but it's what you think—” woefully. “How can you?” “I-didn't say I did,” he denied bluntly. “I only said that what you suggested would protect you against what the rest might think. That would be the only reason I might enter the thing, fora blind.” He believed that she had done this cruel thing to him, and still wanted to protect her from the opinions: of others. What conundrums men were, to be sure, Well, if he wanted to Lo so noble, let him, She was positiva that his entering the group would he to his honor and credit. Which was what he agreed to do in the end. When Camilla left him to go to the office, he had promised to carve the words, “Land of Hope,” on the plinth beneath the little group, and enter it in the National exhibit as if that had been his first intention. Others might believe that, but not Avis. When he explained his inten- tion to her, he added casually, “As a| matter of fact, I didn’t ‘mow which piece I would enter.’ Now, it's all settled.

(To Be Continued) Have Seadog For Pet. Boys In St, John, N.B., Planning To Teach Him Tricks % ‘Two boys who caught a-seadog on the Bay of Fundy shore at West Saint John, New Brunswick, are wondering if it is realy a white ele- phant. ‘The young amphibian knows when to expect food, and three times a day, just before meal hour, he startles the neighbourhood - with strange barking. Then the boys have to.go fishing to satisfy their captive's appetite. They also feed him’ milk through a nipple on a baby’s bottle. After keeping the seadog in a garage for one day the boys return- ed it to the water and watched “it swim away. Early the next morn- ing, however, it was waiting for them on the beach below their house and followed them home like an affec- tlonate, although awkward dog. Sometimes it: goes swimming follow- ing the family rowboat, but never deserts its new pals. ‘The friendly ocean canine, which enjoys frequent baths in’a tub near the garage, is about three feet long and has a head resembling the ordinary dog. Dragging the hind flippers, it can walk almost as fast as its human companions. Since the pet refuses to go away, the boys are planning to teach him tricks, A preacher in New Jersey, as he looked over his large congregation on Easter Sunday morning, sald: “I realize that there are many here who will not be with us again until next Easter time.

PINKHAM’S VEGETABLE COMPOUND SS SS A Marvel Of Architecture Palace Of Arts In Mexico City Cost Ten Million Dollars Many people look upon Mexicans as a somewhat barbaric people. Like Soviet Russia it is a country of periodical disturbances, but, like the Russians, they are intensely devoted to art, music and the theatre, and in the cities there is a far higher level of culture than in almost any Eng- lsh-speaking community, After 30 years, the Palace of Arts in Mexico City has just’ been com- pleted. The building was begun in 1904 during the regime of Porfirio Diaz, and despite frequent: political changes each succeeding government has.continued the work. There was never any difference of opinion about that. The Palace of Arts is a stu- Ppendous structure, housing art gal- lerles, a national museum, a gigantic theatre which is a work of art in it- self and the auditorium of which has the most wonderful lighting system ever conceived, an auditorium for concerts, rooms for exhibits, lectures and various other purposes. The building is a marvel of architecture inside-~and out, covers two. city blocks, and cost about $10,000,000. Neither Great Britain, Canada nor the United States could or would duplicate such a monument to the arts.—St. Thomas Times-Journal. Women Detectives Fail To Be Disbanded In London After Six’ Months’ ‘Trial Women detectives are a failure. Given a six months! trial in detec- tive work, women members‘ of the London police, force have brought little beyond their inborn intuitive Instinct to their work. According to. the Policewoman's Review they have been found want- ing in sundry other capacities necd- ed in this type of police work, and are to be disbanded. < In an outspoken editorial on their failure, the Review states: “Many womén who wish to qualify as detectives are always quite cer- tain of their personal capacity “and are often unwilling to admit the. ab- solute necessity of training to aid their instinct. “The average woman is by nature entirely opposed to detective work and we see in this choice a safe- guard to herself and a guarantee that her contribution to police work must be along different lines to those of men. “We find ourselves unable to con- sider thé disbanding of the women detectives as disastrous.” THE RHYMING OPTIMIST By Aline Michaelis —! NEW POETS We know the songs old poets all have made, How they have painted life's divinest in; In words so splendid, now words are as shade ‘To sun, as feet to soaring wings. We know how futile any phrase must be Which follows after perfect speech is sald; Our poems are as moths tossed out te by While theirs are strong gulls wheeling overhead. In spite of this, who can from song refrain When it is passion of his every hour? When through his veins is poured the lyric strain Who can keep silence and renounce h r? We know old pocts sung sublimely well Yet each new heart has its own tale to tell! More British Films English Film Industry Has Greatly Increased Output The English film industry has quadrupled its production in the past few years, it was revealed recently, and the report pointed out that the quality of the films has led England's movie houses to show twice as many British films as the law requires. The “boom” in English films has led to a production of an average of 10 films per week, or some 200 for 1934, if the present pace is main- tained, as against the former annual averages of 50 to 60. In Canada the distillery industry provides the largest industrial out- let for surplus rye. Small amounts are used for human food products while a considerable proportion is fed or otherwise consumed on farms.

MADE IN CANADA Does Not Harm the Heart Prairie Fruit Orchards Scientific Fruit Breeding Of Great Assistance To West The scientist is coming to the aid of the prairie. settler in enlarging the variety and increasing the volume of home-grown fruits for his table. The work of the scientist in other fields of agricultural production is, of course, already widely «recognized. Marquis. wheat, originated by Dr. Saunders at the Canadian Govern- ment Experimental Farm at Ottawa, which ‘combined adaptation “to a short season with high milling quali- ties, has. literally rolled the map of agricultural areas northward. More recent scientific achievements seem likely to master the wheat scourge known. as rust. While these and similar developments have occupied Public attention, persistent “and suc- cessful work has been carried on in adapting or creating varieties of fruit suitable to the prairie soil and climate. It is now predicted that if scientific fruit breeding continues at the present rate of progress, within the next twenty years the Western prairies will-have a range of fruits approximately equal in quality to those now grown in. the principal fruit-growing areas of Canada. in In their natural condition the Cana- dian prairies produce wild fruits in| te considerable variety. The delicious strawberry is native to very large areas. Raspberries, gooseberrles, cur-| Je rants, cranberries, saskatoons and plums grow wild in many localities, Apples were introduced many years ago and varieties have been develop- ed which do well under prairie con- ditions.
