Outside the sun poured down his heat

white road wound away like some
White-hot band
Within the bungalow, with the
shades drawn and sense of GOODNESS
pervading the place, Helen Martin
was softly playing arias from "Eula.

music world agog the previous win.

She smilingly stepped to the hall
rack for veil to tie down her thick

They sped down the road. Jimmy
Smith ran a car at all kinds OF speed
They had just entered shady stretch
of woods, when he slowed down the
car and turned to her abruptly.

She did not Immediately reply.

Cummins and that one of the nation

in the state last month, had said there
would be progressive candidates for
every Office in the state.
Judge Stephens was right Chair

And there probably will be a pro-

the only reason that he does not come
out and take his stand with us as a

days session was devoted to these
arguments When Morgan was called
to the stand he declined to answer
questions, saying If he should testify
regarding visits to the Jonquil. he
would degrade himself and might be
liable to prosecution Judge Bledsoe
accepted this plea and Morgan left
