He found that Carriers face, with
it's handsome WEAKNESS kept COM

he feared Carter. Feared him and
hated him.
Joyce and Carter were talking
easily. He had instructed his
chauffeur to drive about for a little
before taking Joyce home.

my roommate is leaving for New
York to stay Sunday and I don't
know whether l will like it alone or
not"
"That worries me-" said Carter
lightly. I'm afraid you'll get so
lonesome that you'll up and get
married some day when I'm not
around"
"And if you were around" Joyce
challenged.
"Ill keep you from getting lone

hers for a moment. "Are you COM

week."

Joyce. This is my week to work

I'm sorry, for I had counted on

you can arrange it, will you let me
know? I'm not going to engage my

CHAPTER xxx
Joyce Makes an Enemy

Joyce found note from Miss
Scanlon on her headpiece when she
reported for work the following
Monday at three.
"Joyce-Come in to see me few
minutes around noon tomorrow,
will you please-Scanny."
Joyce wondered about it, search
ing her conscience for any mistakes
or neglect of her work in the past
few weeks. She could fine none,
but could not escape an uneasy
feeling as she began to plug in calls
and send them out.
Worried" Marian asked her,
noting her abstraction.
"A little Joyce admitted. "Scan-
ny wants me to come in to see her
tomorrow at noon. Wonder what
about?"
"Oh, they're going to make some
changes in hours" said Marian.
'She probably wants you for one
Of those relief jobs"
The girls kept busily at their
work of bringing the world to the
&Statler and sending the Statler out
to the world until the after dinner
lull. Joyce left the board and went
out into the lobby to meet Gladys.
did you tell her?" she asked.
yep. She wants me to wait an
other week but I told her I couldn't,
She was awfully nice about it
though. So I'm leaving Sunday"
Gladys answered.
II don't want to go, but I've got
to do something desperate to make
Hop notice me-" She glanced over
to a palm tree behind which lounged
the hotel detective watching the
theater crowds.
Joyce wondered as she went back
to the board what in the world
Gladys saw in the no longer young
heavy set Jim Hopkins. Half of
it because he's a detective" she
decided, the other half because he
was kind to her when she first came
here to work and doesn't pay any
attention to her any more"
At ten o'clock she tidied herself
in the mirror of the rest room and
walked with Marian into the lobby.
She heard her name called and
turned to see Carter Deland, impec-
cable in evening dress, coming
out of the dining room. He was
alone Since the night they had
dined at the Cleveland Joyce had
not seen him, save to nod to.
Now he came toward her with
outstretched hand. Miss Daring,
JOY, how wonderful to find you like
this just as you are going home.
May I drive you out that way?
I'm due at a dance some time be-
fore midnight, but that is two hours
yet"
THANK YOU" said JOY. Eyes, 1t
is cold and I'll be glad to ride"
They passed from the lobby to
the revolving door. Lounging just
outside, his hands in his pockets,
his coat collar turned up, stood
Davey. He had not seen Joyce for
q week and had come down tonight
to drive her home in the new Ford
coupe.
Catching a glimpse Of her compan.
ion, he stepped back a little and
burrowed deeper into his coat col
lar. He saw the Statler doorman
step forward and open the door of
a silent powerful limousine that
rolled up at his signal.
"And I came here after her in a
Ford" he thought bitterly, looking
down at his last v<stlter's overcoat,
and staring at his roughened hands.
He started back to the boarding
house, debating all the way the ad.

MORE ON FORESTS

 primarily to supply an important local demand which, however, may be insufficient to provide year long operations and to justify efficient milling methods and equipment, will be encouraged in any efforts toward plant improvement, lengthening the operating season and placing the ex cess lumber cut on the general mar kets of the United States and foreign countries. Also, the establishment of minor wood-using industries, es- pecially those using western red and Alaska cedar will be encouraged.
 8. Sales of pulpwood or spruce saw logs will not be made when the export of the wood or saw logs to a. foreign country is anticipated, ex- cept in an emergency to salvage de- terierating timber, or except for local use in nearby portions of Cana da if it is impracticable for the local users of that country to obtain the needed forest products in their own country. No sales of National Forest timber, except for purely local use and on a small scale, will be made to aliens or alien corporations.
 g. : Other things being equal, pre- ference will be given to such indus tries and applicants as contemplate the most complete manufacture in Alaska.
 10. : Initial sales within a working circle will ordinarily include the more accessible timber within reasonable distance of tidewater. leaving the more inaccessible parts of the timbered area within the working circle for later exploitation.
 II. : Small sales will be encouraged in so far as consistent with the in- vestment required and the demands of the industries. Every encourage ment will be given to the establish ment of competitive log market.
 12. The following policy will govern the initial sales of pulpwood to supply plants to be established in Alaska:
 a. Firm contracts are offered for an initial sale within the pulptimber allotment, covering sufficient timber to supply proposed paper mill for as long as a period as 50 years. Ad- ditional timber, to provide for reason able expansions to the initial plant within the first ten years, may be included in this contract.
 b. The contract will provide for the readjustment of the original stumpage rates at the end of ten years after cutting operations are started, and at five-year intervals thereafter to make them conform with the then current rates being re- ceived for stumpage of correspond ing quality and accessibility in South eastern Alaska.

MORO PRINCESS HOLDS
 ENTIRE ARMY AT BAY
Philippine Constabulary "at Ease" Fearing to Fire and Injure
 Woman

Manila, Jan. 26 tP-The Philip pine constabulary. an organization of fighting men which has faced every variety of combat, stood at parade rest" today and perused its book of etiquette in search of rules for fight ing a woman.
 The woman is one of royal blood Princess Tarhata Karam-attrac- tive niece of the Sultan of Sulu-who is reported to be holding an entire constabulary regiment at bay on Kolo island. where her husband Datu Tahil, high Moro dignitary. is entrenched with 200 armed fol- lowers.
 The Moro rebels are defying the entire Philippine government, and the constabulary has hcsitated to at tack Tahil's forces for fear of kill ing or iniuring the princess. Such an eventuality would enrage the sul- tan and bring down the wrath of the entire Moro population on the gov crnment.
 Prevented from using methods with which they are most familiar in combating the rebellicus Moros, the constabulary forces are trying to entice the princess away from the scene of conflict.
 Princess Tarhata is peculiar mix ture of east and west. She was edu- cated at the University of Illinois. Recently she entered the harem of Datu Tahil as his fourth wife, giving up bobbed hair and short skirts in response to the call of tradition.
 Tahil rebelled in 1913 when his harem favorite at that time joined him in battle. He fled at night. leav- ing his wife behind, and she was killed. Tahil later was pardoned for ta-'''~ p-rt in the uprisings.

CHAPLlNS WIFE
 AGAIN IS BEATEN
Fails in Latest Attempt to
 Collect From Funds

To, Angeles Jan. 26 P1Beaten again in their effort to collect $l4,- 900 temporary alimony and attor- pev's fees. the legal forces Of Llta Grey Chaplin today were forced to take another tack in their assault mon the millions of Charles Spencer Chaplin. screen comedian.
 Lawyers retained by the motion nicture star to combat Mrs. Chap lin's suit for divorce and snare ol his fortune yesterday obtaineo all annellate court order enjoining re- ceiyers of Chaplin's property rom having the alimony award pending hearing of the receivership case Tn q higher court.
 It was surprise more on the mart of Chaplin's attorneys and It left Mrs. Chaplin's superior court ;llimony order temporarily worthless' Tn obtaining the restraining writ the screen stars attorneys set forth that the superior court, which had grant, ed the alimony order, had been without jurisdiction because legal notice of the action had not been served on Chaplin.
 The appellate court set next Tuesday morning for the hearing of argument on a motion to make the nrohibitive writ permanent and pre- vent the payment of additional all mony installments of $4,000 month' awarded the actors wife by the lower court.
 Mrs. Chaplin's attorneys pointed out that the appellate courts action simply leaves the alimony phase Of the case in status quo as the re- ccivers already were prevented from paving the awards because of the governments income tax liens against the actors assets.
 While Chaplin's attorneys in Washington were arranging with the internal revenue department for the lifting of the governments liens against s600,000 of the actors funds in New York banks. federal officials here announced they had been au- ,horized to divide the income tax liens filed against the comedians propcrtics. This was done to diff ferentiate between his personal hold ings and those of his corporations. It leaves Chaplin in control Of certain bank deposits in New York.
 Internal revenue officers here said per cent penalty on all income taxes alleged by the government to be due from Chaplin would go into effect today unless he posts a bond 100000 which have been filed against him here.
