CHAPTER XII

Il HEN Vee-Vee heard Jerry
M/I Macklyn's voice she stopped
Wv as suddenly as if she had
been shot, stretched out her arms,
whirled blindly as If searching for
him, then sank, a crumpled heap,
to the tall, lush grass over which
she had been speeding toward free
dom. Jerry had come!
She was murmuring those words,
brokenly, when his arms went
about her, lifted her, held her close
against his breast.
II knew you'd come, oh, knew
you'd come" she told him over and
over, sobbing against his breast like
a child waking from nightmare.
poor Vee-Veep He held her so
close that she could feel the thump-
ing of his heart. But he did not
kiss her, although it required every
ounce Of his strength to keep his
lips from that adorable, quivering
mouth that was so near his own.
He did not want a kiss Of gratitude,
given in moment Of reaction.
Aren't you curious to know how
I found your" he asked gently.
"Not much" she confessed, sigh
ing with profound contentment.
"But-how did you find me? I knew
you would" she added childishly,
as If she could not say the words
often enough.
Your roughneck boss has been
hobnobbing with a princess and an
heireSs worth forty million dollars"
he grinned down at her. "As a
matter of fact, the princess and
are the best of friends. We go
driving together before dawn"
"Jerry!" she cried, lifting her
head from his breast and staring
into his blue eyes incredulously.
Vivian Crandall came with you?
Not her, Jerry!"
IF you're going to use grammar
like that I'll have to fire you and
get a new private secretary" Jerry
laughed boomingly. Eyes, ma'am
Miss vivian Crandall in person, not
a movie.
"She's waiting in my car on the
road below. I told her I'd better
tilt with the prince alone. BY the
way, where is hep"
II locked him in the cabin, after

Judas Priest, child" Jerry scold-
ed her. Don't you ever go to the
movies? Don't you know you spoiled
my big scene? I was all set to tear
you from the villains arms and give
him the beating of his life, and then
you go and rescue yourself! Now
I ask you, is that nice? Is that the
way a helpless heroine behaves
stealing the hero's thunder?"
I'm sorry" She giggled helpless
ly. II stabbed him, too, with a can
opener, and he's probably in a rot
ten temper. Have you got a gun?'
How can you ask?" Jerry chuck
led, shifting her in his arms SC
that he could take a small auto
matte from his coat pocket. Then
his face became suddenly serious
as he demanded: You're sure he
didn't-harm you? I'll kill him i
he did, and leave his blue bloodet
carcass to rot in that shack he fan
cies as a rendezvous
HE didn't have a chance to harm
me-" Vee-Vee told him, color flood

Is thinking only of the money he
thinks you have. 7 have had life
time of what you have gone through
in one week-so far as fortune
hunters are concerned" she went
on.
IT had lost all my faith in men
and love. I had never even had
the great good fortune to be in love.
Every time was in danger of losing
my head and my heart. the man be-
trayed himself and showed that he
was worshiping the golden image
and not the flesh-and- blood girl"
"And yet you are the most low
able woman have ever seem" Wee
Wee interrupted her.
"You are real girl" Vivian
Crandall told her, her hand tight
ening its clasp upon Vee-vee's cold
fingers. "And you will never know
how lucky you are that you are a
penny princess and not a dollar
princess, that you can love and
marry whom you please, sure that
the man loves you for yourself
alone and not for a golden crown"
THAT might have been true-last
week." Vee-Vee confessed \miser-
ably. But now-who will have the
courage to love a girl who has been
so unfortunate and so foolish as to
get herself into the scrape that I
am in?
Tomorrow the whole country
will read my story and laugh at me
and scorn me-the Cinderella who
played princess for a week-and was
caught because she did not leave
when the clock struck twelve"
Jerry Mack)yn and Vivian Gran
dali exchanged a long, significant
smiling look, then the woman who
had been q princess asked a star
Ting question in her cool, sweet
voice:
Would you like to be the Prin-
cess Vivian for a little while longer.
Vee-Vee-for my sake?"

booklets have been distributed in all
parts of the country and in foreign
countries. Requests for the booklets
and other information are coming in
daily. The books have been placed in
Elks homes all over the nation.
All directors present were of the
opinion that the work of the club must
continue during the coming year. The
directors expressed themselves as fa-
foring spending more money in the
work of the club during the second
year.
Records kept by similar climate
clubs in other cities prove that after
the first year of advertising a number
of inquiries are directly traceable in
later years to the advertising done the
first year.

asked for new statement of one

The court declared the jury had
nothing to do with whether Sinclair

counsel or with the question of the

by the oil committee as he had de-

Finally the justice told the jury

fact that Sinclair was a central fig
ure in the oil investigation or that

rany and that gasoline is an ex-

''and that even now an argument can
be made in favor of writing off the
debts incurred after our entry into
the war to the extent that they were
incurred for contributions to a COM

important reservation, there is merit
to such an argument only if the pro-
posed adjustment is to be a mutual

Adverting to the origin of the dobt,
Mellon pointed out that while the

Teapot Dome Lessee
Faces Jail Sentence

Another juryman sent out this
request:
please telephone Mr.. shulz that
I cannot keep that engagement with
him tonight"
These messages led to report
that the jury stood ten to two for
conviction, but of course, this was
without any confirmation.
! After the jury returned to the
court room for another reading of
enc instruction, which was offered
by the defense, the foreman an
nounced that "one juryman" wanted
it restated.
! This instruction was that the jury
was the sole Judge of the facts and
the differences to be drawn from the
evidence ahd also of the question
Of the guilt of the defendant.
Immediately upon reading it JUS
tice Hitz, over objection of defense
counsel Informed the jurors that as
he already had instructed them the
only facts for them to consider were
whether the multimllionaire oil op-
orator was summoned before the
appeared; whether he was sworn !:
whether he was asked the questions
set out in the Indictment and whetn-
er he refused to answer them.
"And if you find that these are
the facts" he added, sit is your duty
to return verdict of guilty
Several of the jurymen held whsp-
cred conference in the box as Justice
Hitz directed them to return to their
room for further deliberation.
The last day of the trial, the first

of organized Jewry to take advantage
of the American farmer is product of

piro was backed by Jewish combina-
tion in his organization work is en-

Judging by the time taken by Mr..
Gallagher, who began his opening plea
yesterday to outline what the plain
tiffs intend to prove, attorneys for
both sides agreed that the trial prob
ably would last 60 days. His declara-
tion contains 141 points on which evil
