CHAPTER XII
CISSY FLARES UP AT ME.

DICK and Cissy were not par
ticularly good friends after that

ties which make STAR" Motherdear
said one day. Gle seizes any little
excuse for slumping. They say that
Dicks success has quite upset Cissy.
They say he's taken to gambling
again. l hope not.
This news distressed me. | didn't
want to marry Cissy but l did want
to remain an influence for good in
his life. | had prided myself upon
reforming the boy-and | was failing.
But l was not sure that jealousy
of Dicks acting had made Cissy
slump. Could it be jealousy of
Dicks courage?
Dick had dared to carry me off
+ from the fire set while Clssy had
stood as if paralyzed. Dick was sta
toned at an angle from which ne
could see that my negligee had
caught fire. Cissy had supposed my
terror was excellent acting, he had
not perceived my danger but after
ward he felt that he ought to have
done so.
At any rate, Cissy and Dick ceased
| to be friends from that moment. And
| it was most unfortunate because the
company was about to go Oh. loca-
! ton.
The director had decided ID work
cxteriors for couple Of months.
The company would spend week at
The famous falls, then two weeks in
town, and after that would take a
long trip to mountain wilderness.
On location at the falls, Cissy and
! had love scene to do in the moon
I light, a scene of which the public
never tires. 1t was to be shot by
daylight. Moonlight on the screen
is suggested by film tinted blue.
j The final love scene consider the
hero's responsibility. Obviously the
business of wooing is not for girl
to invent.
If she is a perfectly nice young
| girl, she is obliged to leave 1t to the
man, off set or on.
The evening we arrived at the falls
Cissy took me to the spot where we
were to be shot next day. He in
vented some good business which he
decided to suggest to the director

Owe CAR FOR TEN PEOPLE.

CEVEN years ago there were but
1,6O0,000 automobiles in the
United States BY New Years Day
there will he 10,487, 200 of them reg
istered, one for every 0 men, women
and children in the land. And these
figures do not include motorcycles
or tractors.
On Dec. 81, 1920, the registered
automobiles in the country number,
Fed 9,315,519. This indicates, gain
for the present year of IL liz per
cent. The gain over 1919, outward.
| ly the most prosperous year in cur
national history, is 81 1-5 per cent,
Iowa leads all other states in the
use of automobiles. Everyone in
that state could go riding at once
flor there is car for every 5.17
persons in california, Washington,
Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Arizona and Ne,
vada there is car for every 6.2 per.
sons. Throughout the Middle West
I
there is one for every TT persons.
In the East, despite highways which
are the envy of other sections, the
automobile seems less popular perhaps
because of the development of steam
and electric interurban systems. New
England has but one car to every
11.8 persons, New York to every 1922
and Pennsylvania to every 1928 per-
sons. The South averages lower
still, with but single automobile to
every 1873, but the South has been
buying lavishly for the past five
years.
Under the circumstances, the Won
| der is that the good roads movement
has not gained more rapidly. These
figures indicate that highway travel
and traffic mean much more than
any kind to at least 15 per cent of
our population.

MORE ABOUT THE GRAND JURY

THE drawing of three ministers
on the Sumter county grand
jury has caught the editorial eye
in other places besides Townsville.
The Columbus Enquqirer-Sun COM
ments upon the fact in this wise:
There are many matters going
before grand juries that should not
go there at all, but it is next to i'm
possible to keep them out of the
grand jury room. The grand jury
has very grave responsibility rest
ing upon it. 1t must thresh out the
things that go before it and ascer-
tain whether or not there is probable
guilt; if they find that there is it
is the duty of the jury to return in
dictments; if not, then the matter
is dismissed. Men who make up a
grand, jury should, therefore, be of
good judgment and conversatism,.
They should be able to arrive at
reasonable conclusions for two spe-
cial reasons, one Of which is that in
the event a person is not guilty he
should not be subjected to the hu.
initiation of atrial or if one is be.
lieved to be guilty he should not es
cape; and another is that, IL one is

MOORISH WOMEN EAT -FOUR MEALS
DAILY AS ONLY CONSOLATION

Their only consolation Is in eating.
They consume four meals daily, at
which they drink great quantities OF
weak tea, and before they retire Tor
the night devour large quantities of
alcuzcuz-balls composed OF flour,
water and honey.
They are very careful with the cat

Among the chief festivities are
those connected with births and the
giving of names. which occurs eight
days after birth. when the father
sacrifices a sheep, and, sprinkling the
blood, pronounces the names to be
given to the child in the name OF
Allah.
At twenty. years Of age 1t Is Gus
tomary to marry. A young man then
| announces to his father his desire to
, wed a certain young woman. The
father communicates with the father
of the chosen bride, and sends his
brothers to sacrifice a sheep in front
Of his tent. at the same time appeal
ing to the father to give his daughter
in marriage to their nephew.
II the father consents. the price OF
the young woman and the dowery she
is to bring with her is agreed upon.
The day of the ceremony is settled,
the bride knowing nothing about 1t.

When the wedding day arrives the
parents of the bridegroom go in pro-
cession to the tent of the brides
father. to whom they bring half of
the price to be paid for the bride,
receiving in return therefor half of
the brides dowery. The men fire three
rifle shots and the women shout with
joy.
The couple. although the ceremony
is yet incomplete, go to their future
tent together. The real Wedding en-
sues the following day, when the
bride is taken in procession on the
