FRED MEDITATES ON MARITAL
 TROJTRIES
BY ZOE BECKLEY

| Following a quarrel over an apartment | he has picked a home
 FIRED, young salesman for the Gypsy Motol l company, rushes forth from a New Yorl | hotel leaving his new bride. | CONNIE, alone. Alarmed at his continued l absence, Connie telephones to the police
 NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
 Fred stalked out of the hotel, his
 heart one raging bruise. ... Stunned and furious. aching and frightened, convinced that the whole
 fair structure of life was topping, il naattered not where he was going
 only to be moving, as an offset t
 the frenzy within.
 He was glad to find himself ulti
 mately on the river front where fev
 were passing, and none intruded ol
 his tumbled thoughts.
 So that was the woman he hac married,
 His future and hers lay with the great city and it's ways and she gross
 y furious that it took her from hel small-town ways and dreams, The apartment he had found he l felt to be ideal-near the Gypsy sales rooms, in the midst of everything, in the same house with at least six pros pective buyers of Gypsys, as Cunning ham, the head salesman, had already told him.
 And Connie, thinking only of her cottage and her curtains, her garden and her flowers, would risk his ann bitions to gratify her snippy little ideal.
 Love-in-a- cottage, forsooth. What he saw for them was love in the vor- tex of life. Love that meant growth. Love with a purpose to climb and to do,
 Selfish, and foolishly selfish, it was. If Connie were the kind of girl who
 lived only for herself, very well. He would suffer the shattering of his dream Of a partner who loved her mate better than herself.
 But Connie loved him. he knew she did. Then why hadn't she sense enough to see his development and success lay among the haunts of men? Did she think he could earn enough to satisfy her needs by sticking in the mud of Bonneville?
 Perhaps selfshness was too harsh a name for it. Foolish, headstrong were more suitable words. Con couldn't be really selfish. But head strong aud tenacious, yes.
 FmotiVhal, too, and imulsive to all most any extreme. Perhaps at that very moment she was contemplating something mad Contemplatine? Con-

 nie never contemplated. She acted.
 Fred glanced at his watch. He had been gone from the hotel two hours. In that time anything could develop in a brainstorm.
 Perhaps if he talked to her quietly, explained how the theatrical and sporting set in Cleopatra Court was just the set that bought Gypsy; how the head salesman himself had rec the apartment house for that very reason; perhaps she would listen.
 And if she didn't? Well-Connie meant more to him than the selling of a few cars He turned back to the hotel, but was soon confused and

But he let Jimmy go on with hi magic trick.
 "There.' Jimmy exclaimed. "Th, handkerchief has now passed througl the air and is now beneath Bill, Woodchuck's hat - Billy. show tn audience the--No! Wait a moment Jimmy cried quickly. Stop, Billy I'll do a much harder trick. IT make the handkerchief pass bacl again to my hat"
 Again he made his magic motions n2umbled his magic words. Ther with grand flourish Jimmy Rabbit lifted his hat off the ground. And behold. there was the handkerchief beneath it.
 Shouts of wonder greeted this feat Paddy Muskrat said he had never seen anything like it. Old MT. Crow looked very wise and remarked tha, he thought he knew how it was done Aunt Polly Woodchuck declared tha, if she hadn't seen it herself she wouldn't have believed it.
 And then all at once came a CT, of Fraud! Fraud." It came from Uncle Jerry Chuck. In a jiffy every body else stopped talking and craned his neck to look at Uncle Jerry and hear what he had to say.
 There's cheating somewhere in this trick" the old fellow piped. T believe that Jimmy Rabbit used two handkerchiefs."
 Did you see them?" Jimmy asked with a smile.
 "No." said Uncle Jerry Not two al the same time. saw a handker- chief p4ss through the air from your hat to Billy Woodchuck's But I didn't see it pass back again. And that's why I think you used two handkerchiefs."
 You're wrong" he told Uncle Jer- ry Chuck And then he said, The shows over"
 Uncle Jerry was very angry. He cried out that the sleight-of hand show was all humbug. Besides" he clamored. we've seen only one trick. Jimmy Rabbit ought to do at least one more"
 Now Jimmy Rabbit wanted to please everybody. So, he said some what anxiously to Uncle Jerry. What sleight-of-hand trick would YOU like to see ?"
 I've always heard-'Uncle Jerry replled-"l'veo always heard that a. hrst class sleight-of-hander can take Rabbit out of a hat. I'd be pleased to see you do that" And he looked around at the company as if to say lhere. l reckon he's stumped."
 But Jimmy Rabbit didn't look the least bit anxious. On the contrary he smiled broadly.
 This Is easy" he said. Now Watch' And taking his hat off his head, he bowed low to Uncle Jerry Chuck. There you are!" he cried ''How's that?"
 "How's what'" snapped Uncle Jer-
 The trick" said Jimmy. Didn't just take Rabbit out of a hatp"
 Well, everybody roared with laugh ter-except Uncle Jerry Chuck. He tried to shout, "Fraud." again Rut the whole company roared so loudly that he couldn't make himself heard And he soon waddled away. mumb- ing to himself

CARP. TO RETIRE
Report Reaches Paris From London and it Fails to Excite Frenchmen- Georges a Fallen Idol

Paris, Aug. 31. - (By Associated Press) - Announcement comes from London that Georges Carpenter European heavyweight champion, will retire definitely from the ring within six or eight months. This has created only mild interest in Paris where Car pentier is not the idol of old among the fight fans who rightly or wrongly charge him with snobbishness and ex- aggerated ego.
 One caustic newspaper critic hints that Georges may be automatically retired before six months, referring to his coming bouts with Battling Ski, and the winner of the Joe Beckett Frank Moran bout
