THE VOWS.

CHAPTER II.
Tom was a Yale man, the son
of a one time wealthy Connecticut
manufacturer who had died year
before l met Tom, and whose
money had dwindled so that Tom 5
wealthy bachelor uncle had been
obliged to loan him money to fin
ish his course But he had gradu-
ated near the top of his class, and
had secured position with q
which was an old friend of his
father. He was by this time doins
very well, at least l thought so,
His salary when he asked me to
marry him was, twelve hundred
dollars a year. An unheard of
sum for a young man to earn in
our little town, and so one of enor-
NOUS possibilities to me.
He had told me that he must
| help his mother. that her tiny in
heritanCe was not sufficient for
her needs. l only smiled and an
swcred:
"Of course, DEAR and the next
moment forgot that he had a
mother.
We were married on Christmas
day. The snow was deep, and it
was bitterly cold; but the skies
were blue, and our hearts warm
with the sunshine of love. Two of
my girl friends stood up with me,
and my younger brother was best
man. Tom had no relatives save
his mother and an older sister who
fIt
found out afterward would not
come to his wedding. .~
Till death us do part" / repeat
ed after the old clergyman whom
l had known all my life, and to
me as l said the solemn words 1t
appeared that death was the only
possible thing which could part us
Tom and me.
The Honeymoon.
Then came a wonderful two
weeks. Tom had suggested At
Iantic City for our honeymoon, and
l gladly consented. 1t would have
been glorious anywhere with him,
but Atlantic City! the very name
has a spell for a girl who never
has been there, and you can judge
what it meant to me when / con-
feSs that until | married | never
had been a hundred miles from
my home town.
| had always loved the great out
doors, had spent many hours roam
ing through the woods and lanes
surrounding my home. But from
the first moment that l saw the
sea, turbulent, rolling into the
shore with the roar of the surf
and the play of the white-caps as
they broke and receded. | was
fascinated, almost intoxicated The
board walk to me was also unique.
At one side the ocean, passionate
and wonderful, with its wide space
of winter swept sky; on the other
side the great hotels of which l
Albuquerque morning journal., 1920-12-21
my HUSBAND ND! ANDII ![
Dane Phelps ~

had read, and the tiny fascinating
shops filled with artistic novelties
as we'll as the needful articles with
which to tempt the purse; and be-
tween the two the ever moving
stream of people, walking, or be-
ing pushed along in the delightful
ly comfortable rolling chairs.
How Tom laughed at my enthu-
siasm. Yet I think it pleased him
too. He had been there many
times and so my delight-perhapa
kept him from being bored with
the familiar scenes.
Practically all day we were out
doors. i never tired of walking by
the sea. Never tired Of watching
it's kaleidoscope effects. Tom said
that there were very few people
there, but to me the place seemed
overflowing with life and anima-
tiOn. Then too the life was seem
ingly so vibrant, so Well-dreSsed.
Always after our late dinner we
would walk an hour before we
retired The gay inside life of the
hotels had no attraction for me.
To be alone with Tom, my hand
tucked in his arm, his hand over
mine, walking slowly along the
board walk was far more to my
taste than to mingle with the gaily
dressed crowd who danced until
the wee small hours.
Back to Town.
Not once had / thought of ex-
pense, although | wonder now why
it was so. Our room and bath was
luxurious beyond anything l ever
had known; and the things we ate,
things | never had heard of un-
til now were served in such a
manner as might have awakened
my curiosity. But l was so su-
premely happy, so filled with
thoughts of my love, and joy in his
love for me that material things
seemed not to exist Only once did
| speak of expense. That was
when Tom one day bought me a
scarf for my head. The wind was
blowing very hard, and | was
obliged to hold on to my hat to
keep it from blowing off, He guild
ed me into one of the quaint little
foreign shops and bought me a
soft filmy thing to wrap around
my hat. | was shocked when the
clerk said five dollars and sur
prised at the nonchalant manner
in which Tom paid it. But !
thanked him, and in the happi-
ness felt when he said it was
very becoming forgot to say any
thing about his extravaganza.
The two weeks were all too soon
over, We took our departure for
New York and an apartment. Tom
had rented a small five room flat
up near the Bronx, paying twenty
five dollars for 1t. 1t seemed an
awful rent to me, In my home
town it would have procured the
right to live in a big detached
house with a yard and garden.
But Tom said it was dirt cheap
and that we were lucky to get it!

GOVERNOR MECHEM'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS

Considerable public interest is aroused over the
announcements of Governor Mechem in his forth
coming inaugural address. Governor Mechem has
been entirely silent since his election except for
his Las Vegas declaration that all platform pledges
of the party would be redeemed
1t is assumed that he will in his inaugural ad-
dress outline the policies of his administration dur
ing the next two years. This is what concerns the
public The questions of his appointments to office
is interesting no part of the public except those
aspiring to be the beneficiaries. 1t seems to be
taken for granted that he understands that much of
the success or failure of his administration will at
tend the general character of the appointments he
lCay make How far political eXigencies may be
allowed to affect these appointments instead of the
public service being the deciding factor, Will to a
degree determine the future of the governor.
However what the governor may say if his at
titude on public questions and his plans for the
future is what the public is waiting to hear,
Win it be the stale commonplaces of a political
governor or will it be the challenge of states
who grasps the needs of the state and has the
courage to lead on?
As d judge, Governor Mechem is wei and fa-
Varably known. AS SCOTSMAN he is Without a
record. He write upon the white pages OF the
tGture what he will,
BY his inaugural declaration the public will
largely determine it's estimate of the statesman
like qualities of the By it, too, they will ap-
praise his courage and his independence.
Opportunity knocks at Governor Mechem's door.
He goes into office with the good wishes of every
one. All are hoping that he proves equal to his
opportunity for service.

JUST FOLKS
THE BUSINESS OF LIFE.
Copyright, 1920. by Edgar A. Guest.

The rain comes down and the wind blows cold,
but the men go trudging by
For the work of the world goes right along re-
gardless of sun and sky
And the business of life must be carried on re-
gardless of those who die.
Sit down at the window pane of life when the
storms begin to blow,
And watch the faces of toilers grim as they
hourly come and go,
tasks in spite of the rain or snow.
The captains pilot their ships at sea and the
stokers stoke their fires,
Though the waves roll high and the tempest
sings a dirge through the frozen wires,
And 1 think sometimes that the stormking laughs
in gee at the man who tres
Fit for all weathers a man must be, who shrinks
from the pelting rain
And dreams forever of sunny Skies shall find
he has dreamed in vain,
For all must trudge through the storms of life
to the goals that they would attain.
So stand you staunch at your post of life Keep
faith when your joys have gone,
In spite of the hurt and the waste and gloom
that you wake to look upon,
In spite of all that the fates may send, the living
must carry on '.T'
