Wife's Faith Remains Despite
 Latest Crime Of Roy Gardner

begged forgiveness She grew si- lent for a few moments, thinking of that meeting. It was the first time she had seen him since she had told him good bye in Sacramento, last June, when he was on his way to McNeil Island.
 He didn't look much like the Roy 1 knew" she said presently. I must get him some clean clothes and see about a haircut for him, tomorrow"
 Here was the chance to advance that old theory about ''out of sight, out of mind" But it didn't appeal to her, though she weighed it re- flectively.
 NO, I simply couldn't forget Roy" was the way she finally expressed herself. You see, I've got a picture in my own mind of Roy coming free from prison, and what our life to-
 sether would mean when he could go
 ssraight And I feel sure that if he had the chance to do it he would-- I don't care if the whole world thinks otherwise. So, no matter what he has done or may do. can't get his picture out of my mind. l think It is what live for, because whenever I think Of never having Roy with me again" She stopped and drank lTOlfl lAlC 6ldSo dl AiSi SiDo"s AAS Al just my Roy" she finally added. Of her own life she speaks briefly. Eight hours a day are spent in a San Francisco department store. It was quite feat to get the money to come down and see Roy, but she had to come.
 If only he hadn't run away from | McNeil," she cried. He'd probably have been paroled in another year If only he hadn't tried this hold-up- but what's the use? It is done, and now we've got to face. the future Asked what she would suggest her l husbands doing, she said, most en- phatically:
 'Take his punishment, by all means. This talk about his escaping again-you don't know how thai makes me feel. When he was ir prison, at least knew where he was and could hear from him regularly Then came his escape, and all the worry, and the notoriety. How hate it! I want it to end this time | I want to know where I stand. ane
 what I've got to work for. and ex- pect."
 If Roy Gardner could have beer l there at that time, and have beer
 capable of putting aside .iis owr l egotism and self -adulation, it il possible that he might have become l a fraction of the man which thl' little woman sees and loves in him.

By Cleo Braddock

She sat at the table, toying with the 1000 she could not relish-a slim oehcate woman, whose childish face IS still strangely free from all lines or suffering. 'Dolr' is Roy Gardners S pet name for this wife of his. and oolf she Is in type-but that is all one look into those straight glancing eyes, which are grey as the sea on a cloudy day, and you know that a woman Is there, and a woman who has suffered.
 When Mrs. Roy Gardner spoke of her husband. 1t was not to her. life with him that the interviewer lis- tened, for that has been told and re- told many times. But it was her lovely belief in her own faith in the captured bandit which made itself so apparent that nothing else count ed. Roy Gardner has broken the law, and is going to pay the penalty for his crime. which is right and just. But his wife is going to pay it with him.
 She probably doesn't know much about psychology. and why people under certain conditions do certain things, even in spite of themselves. She only knows that she loves this erring man, and that she must stand by him.
 Many people have asked me why don't divorce Roy, and start life over again. and I can't say that l haven't given it some thought You see, I'm only twenty four. But how could I leave him? What would he do if he didn't have me? Why, I've just got to stand by him, no matter what happens"
 And this without excusing any thing he has done. 1t was all wrong, and a dreadful muddle to her from start to finish. She has puzzled over the why and wherefore of it all until her head ached, and gotten nowhere But always she came back to her starting point-that she must stand by. She admits that her greatest suffering has come through her hus- band.
 But no one will ever know how happy we were, before this trouble started she hastens to add. Roy has made me unhappy-yeS-bu never enough so to make me forget how happy we were together. And when I saw him standing there be- hind the bars today, I can't tell you the feeling that came over me. Al the resentment I had had-and 1t is foolish to say that a woman never feels that-faded. He looked so help less; just like big over-grown boy who knew he had done wrong and

It is related that the famous Sheri- dan went to a hair dresser's on one occasion to order a wig. The barber was a liberal soul and on the orator being measured a bottle of port was produced and so much hospitality was shown that Sheridan's heart was touched
 When they arose from the table and were about to separate, Sheri- dan looking the barber full in the face. said: "On reflecting, I don't intend that you shall make my wig
 Astonished and with a blank vis- age, the barbef exclaimed: '-But, Mir. Sheridan, how can I have displeased your"
 Why. look you" said Sheridan, you are an honest fellow, and I re- peat it, you shan't make my wig. for I never intended to pay for it. I'll go to mother less worthy son of the craft."-Edinburgh Scotsman.
