'Oh ~ ak said. Noh- she duueu-
Her tone betrayed nothing, but she
was thoroughly at sea. did ask
Cherry to say good-by to any oneE'
she asked herself, going back to the
beginning of the long day. Instinct
warned her that nothing would be
gained by sharing her perple1ity with
Martin. II give you my word that she
hasn't been five minutes alone with any
one but Peter and me" she said,
frankly, looking into Martins eyes.
Now, are you satisfied?'
"Sure, I'm satisfied !" he answered
I'll take your say-so for It." He
yawned. Trouble with Cherry is, she
hasn't enough to dol" he finished sapi-
emily.
I'm a poor person with whom to
discuss Cherry" Ali1 hinted, with an
unsm!ling nod for goodnight.
And she looked at Cherry's corn
colored head, ten minutes later, with
a thrill of maternal protectiveness.
Cherry was evidently asleep. buried
deep under the blue army blankets.
But Alix did not get to sleep that
night.
She did not even undress. For 1t
was while sitting on the side OF her
bed. ready TO begin the process, that
through her excited and indignant and
whirling thoughts the first suspicion
shot like a touch of flame.
I'll tell Peter all this when Martin
has gone" Alix decided. He'll be
furious-he adores Cherry-hell be
furious-he thinks that there is no one
like Cherry"
The words she had said came back
to her and she said them again, half
aloud. with look of pain and almost
of fear suddenly coming into her
eyes.
Peter adores Cherry"
And then she knew. Even while
the sick suspicion formed itself.
vague and menacing and horrible, in
her heart, she knew the truth Of 1t.
And though for hours she was to
weigh It and measure 1t, to remember
and question and compare all the
days and hours that she and Peter and
Cherry had been together; from the
moment the thought was born she
knew that 1t was to be with her an
accepted fact for all time 10 come.
For a few seconds Allx felt Ill,
dazed, and shocked almost beyond en-
during. She sat immovable, her eyes
fixed, her body held rigid, as body
might be in the second before it fell
after bullet had cleanly pierced the
heart.
Then she put her hand to her throat,
and looked with sort of terror at
the silent figure Of Cherry. Nobody
must know-that was Alix's first clear
thought. She was breathing hard, her
breast rising and falling painfully.
and the blood In her temples began to
pound; her mouth was dry.
With blind instinct for solitude
she went quickly and silently from the
sleeping porch, and into the warm sit
ting room. For a few minutes Alix
stood, with one foot on the chain that
linked the old brass fire dogs, her ell
bow on the mantel, and her cheek
resting against her arm.
NO" she whispered, almost audi
bly,, mot can't be that! 1t can't be

heart. She was still sitting on the
log, dreamily watching the expanding
beauty Of the new day. when there
was crashing In the underbrush be-
hind her, and wild with Joy, and with
twigs and dried brown grasses on his
wet coat, Buck came bounding out of
the forest, and leaped upon her.

beside her, his quick tongue flashing
ecstatically, close to her face. every
splendid muscle Of his body wriggling
with eager affection. ibid you miss
me, old fellowf Did you come to find

She had not cried during the long
vigil Of the night, when a storm had
ragged In her heart, and had left ber
weak and sick with dread. But there
was peace now, and Alix locked her
arms about the dogs shoulders, and
laid her face against his satiny head
and cried

That depends on the farmer,
replied one of the 5000 farm
women who took part. in a
national contest conducted by
The Farmers Wife. The woman
who made that reply was Mrs.

won third prize. This is what

Country life needs the assist
ance of far-seeing men and
women. Each community must
have percentage of unselfish,
helpful farmers and their wives
who are willing to build up the
weak places in their community
at personal sacrifice.
Farm life has its disadvanta-
ges; so has the city life. Because
the rural school needs atten-
ton, the country church needs
aid, and the spirit Of neighborli-
ness and cooperation is weak in
many communities, the country
offers a wide field for tireless,
tactful service, which will result
in a corresponding development
of the individuals engaged there
| in.
Farm and home bureaus,
backed by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, are
doing a wonderful work but
they will reach their limit un-
less the farmers and their wives
grasp the opportunities they
offer and fit them to their
needs.
Ones words go far in a rural
community and ones influence
counts. There are dangers
threatening the very founda-
tions Of American farm life and
in order to decrease them. farm
ers must put forth sound, sane
and well-balanced efforts. They
must read, think and act.

narrow but it never has to be.

ests is never narrow and the

that the soul-satisfying life is
the one whose days are filed
with well-directed efforts.
IF she can marry farmer
with whom she can join heart
and effort to make her corner
of the community an uplifting
example of the bedrock of
American yeomanry. if she and
her husband can be relied upon
to push forward every measure
that will help to break the
plaster cast in which the back
bone of the nation is at present
largely incased, then both her

THE GOLF COURSE

Hood River citizens seem inoculated
with golfing enthusiasm to the extent
that a course is assured here. With
the healthy nucleus of players already
at hand. Hood River golfng is assured.
Indeed, with Portland folk taking an
intense interest in local golf affairs,
opportunities for the development of
the local course are unlimited.
Golfng, from a general observation
of the game, is something like the to-
baeco habit. Youths start to smoking.
not because they have any keen relish
for a first indulgence in the solaee Of
"Milady Nicotine" but heeause they
see others WELDING pipe, cigarette or
cigar. IL seems a custom that marks
adult manhood. A few tastes Of the
weed bring about a desire 10 smoke.
and thus the custom gains recruits
rapidly. Golfng seems a tame game
to the uninitiated. But men see others
enjoying it with keenest relish, and
the first impulse TO WELD a golf club
comes from this observation Of the en-
thusIasm Of others Il is not long.
however, until the veriest tyro be-
comes an adept, OF thinks he is, and a
new bug on golf is recorded. There is
this difference in the slave Of the to-
bacco habit and the golf bug. Some
times a mans physician, TO salvage his
health, requires that be lay aside the
pipe or forego his daily cigars and Gig
arettes. We have never heard Of 3
doctor ordering q man 70 quit golf.
Not long ago some Of tie one Of the
coast resorts, with great sounding Of
self praises announced the opening.of
q giant swimming pool We have for
gotten what town it was. Indeed, II
we remembered, we wouldn't say, for
it might be embarrassing. Anyhow, Il
was q comment on the swimming pool
BY a Willamette valley paper that ere
ated our real interest This comment
was 70 the effect that the coast resort
might better have served itself and
made itself more attractive to metro
politsn tourists If it had laid out q
good golf course.
Hood River is fast becoming the
tourist center Of the mid-Columbis dis
trict. About 10 years ago the Glacier
The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1922-04-27

began referring to this valley as the
hub of mid Columbia scenic activity.
The completion of the Columbia River
Highway and the work now under way
on the Loop road is an evidence that
the district is, indeed, such a hub.
Hundreds, of course, would come to
Hood River if there were no golf
course. They would come once for the
scenery and to do the roads and the
trails that will be developed, but the
proposed golf course will attract a
more permanent lot of tourists. The
scenery may prove the initial attrac-
tion, but the golf course will cause the
tourists to play returns. The golf
course, as was indicated by John G.
Ainsworth, Portland banker, here Sun
day. will be a magnet for Portland
families, who have a week or a week
end of leisure. Indeed. the golf course
is going to be decided new asset to
the Hood River valley.

LOWER APPLE COSTS

What is the greatest need today .oi
the apple industry? Ask any north
western grower and his immediate re
ply will be: 1--WE must get larger
return for our product. How il
thissreturn going to be increased? One
way that is possible is through the
reduction of costs of growing and mar.
keting the fruit. Apples may retail al
fabulous sums, but such a system, il
the grower produces them at loss, OF
only has negligible margin Of profit
left, is not conducive to any enthusi-
asm IN the producing end of the in
dustry. The time has arrived when
cooperative organizations of growers
must not merely look for a wider dis
tribEtion but they must conduct con-
stant investigation toward the reduc-
tion Of cost of preparing fruit for mar
ket. The northwestern apple grower,
in order to maintain his reputation in
the big markets for product Of the
first quality, must necessarily place
his product in as attractive a package
as possible. But close observation of
marketing customs leads US to the con-
clusion that perhaps this expense in
getting ready the package has been
applied little too lavishly. We Won
der if printed apple wrappers are
worth the extra expense.
Numerous Hood River growers the
past winter have observed the retail
apple markets of southern California.
So far none of them have reported
ever having seen printed apple wrap
per on display. 1t is likely that the
same experience would follow an in
vestigation of eastern markets. The
printed wrapper seems to have no sig
nificance to the retail trade, and insO-
far as the latter is concerned it appar-
emily is a superiuous expenditure. 1t
may be that the printed wrap has
value in getting the apples before the
jobber. Market men. however. will be
found who contend that the jobber
pays more attention to the label on the
outside Of the box than to anything
that may be printed on the wrapper.
In comparison with the cost OF ap-
Piles to the final consumer, the grower
is getting far too small portion Of
this cost. Too many interests are
tacking on profits as the fruit makes
its way from shipping point to fruit
stand or grocery store. The grower
has reached the point of wondering if
a radical departure from the old estab-
lished trade customs should not be re-
sorted to, in order that he may have a
fairer share of the proceeds from the
apple business. An inter-district coop
Grafton of northwestern fruit interests
was launched not 80 very long ago in
Portland. 1t has justified its birth to
date by taking up in virile fashion
some Of the evils that have beset the
industry. 1t may later find that 1t
comes within the scope Of its activities
to take up this question Of marketing.
Sincere determination Of such an or
ganization TO eliminate some of the
mistletoe Intermediates in the fruit
and produce business may result in
more money in the pockets Of growers
and cheaper apples for the consumers.
