CHAPTER XXXIV

Sonia and Don drove to San Fran
cisco over the same desolate, level
road she had once taken with Frank
lin Crane. How long would it take
to erase every memory of these old
days? Perhaps they We're to haunt
her always as he was pursued by
Walter Henderson.
They were rather silent. Their
nerves were ragged from the weeks
of misunderstanding Both felt that
kept her hand tucked beneath his
arm. 1t seemed necessary to touch
him.
After miles of quiet, he asked,
What are you thinking about,
honey?"
Sonia opened her eyes.
me? Oh, I've been wondering how
I'm going to tell YOU"
Tell me what? Have you some
thing to confess, too? What have
you done?"
Nothing I've done exactly"
Don smiled.
81 suppose when you were angry
with me you vamped that nice look
ing young chap 1 saw with YOU"
mo, this has nothing to do with
anyone but you"
"Out with it then"
He had no idea of her meaning I'M
til she had blurted her explanation
like a scared child.
But Sonia, you said . You de-
MED it to Mother and me both"
II didn't know it then. oh, Don,
please don't be angry. don't feel
very we'll"
Angry? My little lover
He stopped the car and took her
in his arms.
She faltered. But I thought you
wanted me to wait until was older. u
For the baby's sake" Don grin
ned. 1.-THE future generation 1 was
thinking of. Sonia, / can't bear
to think what you've been suffering
Why didn't you tell me? When did
you know"
She answered slowly. 1.-THE might
1 called and you told me to run
around the block"
His face was white.
IF it takes the rest of my life,
he vowed, 'I'll make this up to you. u
Suddenly Sonia thought of the
scene two years ago when Vera's
husband had left her to bear hei
trouble alone. When he had rushed
home the next day to beg her par
don, Sonia had resented it. But she
felt no resentment toward Don. She
knew now that marriage was not al
roses. Many thorns it seemed! Only
love enabled men and women to beal
the scratches.
She shuddered to think what mar
riage without love might mean. Yet
she knew there were many of them
Later she thought the joys o.

Homecoming repaid for all her suffer
ing. Before she had been inside the
flat two minutes she had rearranged
the chairs.
1.-THE maid leaves things looking so
stiff" she complained, domestically.
She turned to see Don watching
her with tears in his eyes.
why darling. -
He buried his face in her hair,
muttering, Il can't bear it, Sonia.
What you must have suffered in
that awful apartment. 1 should
think you'd hate me-"
With eyes as darkly sweet as her
sisters, she replied: After all you
have forgiven me, do you think l
have any right to complaint"
Don't mention that
But L WILL" she insisted. BE
cause If it hadn't been for that first
disloyalty nothing would ever have
made you doubt me-"
81 should have trusted you"
az should have been worthy of
trust. My dear, don't be unhappy
over it. Let's just go on, doing the
best we can"
But she was conscious of differ
ence in their relations. She was no
longer quite so humbly inferior. Her
idol had tottered from his pedestal.

weaknesses. None the less dear, but
more man, less god.
She made cocoa and toast, and
while they were eating the telephone
rang.
IT'S Mrs. Wetherby," Don re-
ported. "She saw the light and Won
dered if I'd run over to see Phyllis. I"
So half an hour after her return
Sonia was alone. But it was differ
ent now. She told herself she would
never be reall alone again.
She was so tired from her long ride
as well as the strain and worry, that
she took a hot bath and went to bed.
Signing with pleasure as she crept
between the dainty sheets 1t
occurred to her that she ought to
call jimmy She wondered how she
had weathered her storm. But she
decided she would see her next day
at the real estate office. Sonia
planned to take her final departure.
She would never be working there
again. No matter what future doubts
or MISUNDERSTANDING child
would unite them too closely for sep
aration.
She felt a strange reluctance to
call jimmy. She did not wish to in
trude the sordidness of that other
affair into the peaceful happiness of
her first night at home. Surely she
had a right to be little selfish @.
This once. She was almost asleep
when Don returned.
"Where have you been?'
at decided I'd better. run over TO
the hospital" he admitted, sheep
ishly.
81 suppose" she smiled that now
you'll have to spend an hour or two
with your medical journal. see
there's a new one"
He came to kneel beside the bed.
Sonia, it was such torture not
to love YOU
She rumpled his hair as she had
longed to do for weeks.
Don" she said, 1--WE can put a
little bed in the sun ROOM.

township. If this is true, then the
present population OF the entire
township must be at least $500 to-
day as against the 24G6 of seven
years ago. Ii is mere than prob
able that this is far short of the
figure fer the entire township, as
large increases have been made in
the number of homes in other sec

- Mays Landing covers but
about five per cent of the territory
embraced in Hamilton Township,
the entire township, if only as
thiekly settled as the town, would
support a population of 10000. With
it's constantly increasing mileage
of good roads. Hamilton Township
bids fair TO realize this population
within few years as it occupies
the most desirable location in the
county and will have before long
Aot only the best train service OF
any suburb of Atlantic City, but
much better roads and a greater
network of improved roads.

for the improved roads of Atlantic

Population OF
Mays Landing
Is Over 1000
Count in Belcoville Shows
Nearly 300 People
Residing There

The survey of Mays Landing and
Belcoville made to determine the
population of the two towns and
gather other statistical information
has been completed, but so far only
the totals are available for publ
cation. These show that Mays
Landing has a population of consid
erably more than 1000, and Belco-
Vile has nearly 800.
In making this survey of Mays
Landing it was difficult to draw
definite line as to what might be
called Mays Landing and what
would be merely a part OF Hamii
ton Township. AS the town itself
is under the township government,
there is no distinction officially as
to where one ends and the other
begins. and territory for some dis
lance out from the court house in
either direction is frequently claim
ed as part of Mays Landing.
In fact, many people living in Els
tell Manor, Weymouth Township
and other districts near the borders
| Of Hamilton Township claim Mays
Landing as their residence. Ham
ilton is the largest township in the
State of New jersey and it covers
far too much ground to classify il
or embrace it in one town.
To arrive at definite limit as
to the town, only those homes We're
included in the survey that might
be said to be grouped together with
out a long break Of open ground
between them and the thickly
settled part of Mays Landing. Nat
urally there viii be some who
would disagree with the limit as
drawn, but an effort was made to
include all that could be thought
to be included as properly being
in Mays Landing.
The exact figures on the NUM-
Der of people, the number of homes
and the proportion of males and fe
lmales and other statistics cannot
be given out at this time as The
checl-up is not complete and Will
take some time yet.
That the population Of Mays
Landing has increased greatly since
the last census is shown by the fact
that the whole Of Hamilton Town
ship, territory covering 90 square
miles, had total of but 2406 popu
lation. Mays Landing, itself, has
been credited with having about G.
