eeives n letter from Aunt Virginia. Aunt Virginia told her of the bitter quarrel she had had with her grand father because of Nirginia's running nway. Virginia receives a long, newsy letter from her childhood lover, Eddie Montforth. He pleads with her to wait for him till he finishes Harvard. Her thoughts of the old home arc interrupted by the young bride an- nouncfng she had secured the part in the film that Gloria had given up to help Herb Richardson. Tommy Warner came with the news that Gloria and Herb Richardson were to be married that night. Gloria was then to 20 out of town to take care of Kitty Dalton. Virginia was sur prised to learn from character side lights developed in conversation that Ruth Drayton was almost unscrupu- 1ous in her determination to get on in the movies. Virginia was learning fast. Gloria, Virginia and Tommy Warner got into his car to go to Riverside for the wedding. Gloria and Herb were married by Rev. John storm. After the ceremony Mir. storm talked at length with Virginia, in- curing whether she was related to Robert Winston. She explained that SAAt Nfu hot AhOW hcI

 Gloria looked blank for moment and then, with a laugh, took John storms arm and walked toward the dining room.
 Tommy. Herb and I followed.
 The supper was a rather quiet af- fair. Gloria and Herb were en- grossed in themselves, while I could not help wondering whether the man John storm had known was really my father. MT. storm had not men tioned that the man was an actor, ana l dismissed the matter. I was glad to think of something else as my mind filled with imagining that other hurried marriage between my father and mother and its sad end. I hoped nothing like that awaited Herb and Gloria. l wondered whether on my mothers face was the look of sacred beauty as she lifted 1t to receive my fathers kiss. that glorified Gloria as Herb bent over her and in solemn adoration pressed her lips.
 For the first time in my life I had witnessed woman's complete self renunciation when she gave herself to the man she loved. About 1t was a spark of the divine, something so beautiful that 1t seemed a sacrilexe for anyone to have observed. I hoped that Herbert appreciated it.

DENIES DISCRIMINATION
AGAINST NON-UNION MEN

II has been published in the Den
yer papers that merchants in Salida
were discriminating against the non
union men by posting notices In
their stores that their trade was not
solicited or desired.
This is unfair to the business men
and to the union men who are sup
posed to be responsible for the post
ing Of the notices. There has been
no demonstration of any kind by the
union men who are on strike and
they have conducted themselves as
good citizens and gentlemen should.
They realize that nothing can be
gained by violence or underhanded
methods even II they felt inclined to
use them. which they do not
