made .innumerable jokes and
wisecracks.
Finally there came a fort
night when Brenda and
Katherine did not telephone
to each other.
Finally, one blustery Feb
ruary afternoon, Katherine
came to Brenda's home.
"We haven't had a four
some for a long time she
began.
"No," said Brenda shortly.
"You know I'm awfully
fond of you," she began
again.
"well," " snapped Brenda,
trying to keep what poise
she could, "our little plan
worked, didn't itH"
"No," said Katherine.
"No?" Why did Brenda
suddenly begin to smile
again? why, l thought
you and John " ."
"It's Dick" said Kath-
crime, all in a little rush of
gladness, He's asked me
to marry him. You-you
don't mind, Brenda? Be-
cause I knew you were fond
of him."
"Dick-him!" Brenda's
voice choked sud- denly.
"Well, I'm awfully glad.
And surprised.
"Why, Brendai"
"You see, I thought you
still were in love with
John.
"Oh, no. That was just
a silly notion. ="
'But I am, you see," con-
fessed Brenda.
"Well, he's in love with
you, plain as day.
II didn't know that, 7
said Brenda humby.
The telephone bell rang.
As Brenda crossed the room
to answer it Katherine's
voice went on:
"You act 500 differ
emily than usual. Never a
word, and mum as a mouse.
"Now"-she was uncon-
sciously reversing the role
of mentor which her friend
had so obligingly played a
few months before-"Dick 8
coming over. Now, Brenda,
you invite John, and perk
up a little. Wear your best
dress and don't look SO
downcast. ="
Brenda was answering
the telephone.
"Hello, John-I'd love to,
but I really-well, all right,
but let's go over to Kath-
crimes instead. She and
Dick"
AS she hung up the re-
ceiver unconsciously she had
assumed that role, discarded
for many months-Diana,
1929-discarded because she
herself had been struck by
one Of the arrows of that
little blind god. There is
something about love, true
love, Katherine reflected,
that makes every woman
unwontedly shy. Then, as
she watched her friend
smile at her, Katherine
knew that Brenda would
live up to her motto, "Get

the next three days. Fear
tore at his heart; strobe be-
side him as he paced the
hotel grounds, as he paused
at his desk, unable to con-
centrate on the work before
him. The tempest in his
soul beat time with the
tempest of the elements
which tore at the root of
things.
His fears were justified.
A frenzied message from
Eugene the evening of the
third day startled him.
"My dearl Ny dear!

have had us all worried.

anguished.
"Come-come to me at

ripples of the waves she
cut. They raced to the
point and back, the contest
ending satisfactorily in a tie.
Afterward when they were
winding homeward in the
small hours of the night,
he spoke to her about the
conversation with Nahuli.
Eugene, David Nahuli

Despite the laughter which

mind was in a turmoil.
He knew that he should
warn Eugene that David
had seen them together at
the luau; but tonight was
the first time the old smile
had come to her lips for
weeks past; and he hated to
destroy her happiness.
Happinessl They were
sitting on the edge Of a

kissing, fiery breath to de-

Indignantly and silently

Perhaps on the way home

Brenda. you see, was a
professional party-girl. She
was proud of being the girl
who could be, at a mo-
ment's notice, the life Of a
hopelessly dull party. So
jolly was she that even the
most tongue-tied of her
numerous beaux could be
galvanized into conversation
and enjoy it.
Brenda had never been in
love. Her chum, katherine
Macy, who was in love,
sought her expert counsel.
Its John Ewing,
Katherine told Brenda tear
fully. "He doesn't know
that I'm a-alive. "
"Well, make him !" ad-
vised Brenda.
"But howl" quavered
Katherine. "Please Brenda,
help me. -
Brenda reflected sagely.
"Make him jealous-may-
be. Chat about other men,
and that sort of thing. Look
v here, Dick Thompson is
coming over to my house
this evening. Mothers max
ing us some sandwiches, and
III make some fudge. You
bring your John along, and
well have a foursome."
Katherine accepted CRATE
fully.
"Not many girls like you,
Brenda - popular girls
would take the trouble, "
she ended.
"Oh, poof!' scoffed Bren-
da. "Wear your best look
ing dress. :"
So it came about that four
young folks sat in Mrs.
Yarrow 5 spotless kitchen
watching Brenda make
fudge.
Cleverly aided by Brenda,
Katherine chatted gayly Of
imaginary dances, dinners
and theaters. John Ewing
seemed perplexed and not
wholly pleased. However,
the evening was more of q
success than Brenda had ex-
pected and she became hope
full that her shum' s swain
was intrigued by this new
butterfly Of a Katherine. All
evening she had been silent,
but she reaped her reward
when, flushed and weary,
they declared unanimously it
had been the best evening
they'd had for many moons.
"You must all come over
to my home soon," Katherine
suggested uncertainty, and
was pleased when the two
men chorused, "Whenf"
"N-next week. "
So the foursomes soon be-
came weekly event. Yet,
after several months, there
came a marked depression
in the merriment. Brenda
grew more and more silent.
Katherine did not look for
ward to the parties with
such enjoyment as she had
at first. John Ewing, who
has talked so volubly at
first, became as silent as

Council Decides
 Discontinue Use
 Hi School Shack

By an unanimous vote the town council on Thursday night decided against continuance Of the use of the riekety old shack now used for high school, after the close of the present school term.
 The town clerk was instructed to notify the school board of this action by the council, and request the board to look for quarters else where and make report regarding their findings and recommendations for more satisfactory quarters for high school students at as early date as possible.
 The shack now being used is not only a fire trap, but is In such a state of decay that an attempt at any further repair would be the height of folly. In order to continue its use for another school term the following repairs would be neces- sary: new foundation, new floor, hSW oboAA N1Js hSN ASoAf Ahu hU- merous minor repairs. also new roof on the building to the rear be- ing used as a fuel shed. And after all these expensive repairs had been made the three upstairs rooms m the old shack would still be the same funny little cubby holes, abso- lutely unsuited and unworthy of occupancy for school purposes.
 At the Council meeting no one made any mention or suggestion of dlscontinuing the use of the grade school building. The city fathers seem to realize that until such time as a new building is possible the council has no alternative than to continue to make repairs each year which are necessarily expensive and which can never result in putting the grade school building in a sat- isfactory condition.
 All progressive citizens are anx- .ious to see the town go ahead, but if adequate schools are not provided business cannot be expected to con tinue to increase or hold it's own, for the people who have children to send to school will not be here.

MAY DAY IS OCCASION OF
 RED RIOTS IN MANY CITIES

BERLIN-Many capitals of con tinental Europe were scenes of riot ing and bloodshed as Communists were restrained in their efforts to celebrate May Day. Fifteen persons were killed and sixty-eight others injured, some seriously, in violent outbreaks which followed efforts of Berlin Communists to stage parades in defiance of strict orders of po- lice. Struggles between police and crowds verged on a battle at times, with the police finally gaining the upper hand, dispersing throngs, and arresting 250 leaders of the demon stration. In Paris police arrested more than 5000 persons in their determined efforts to prevent a big demonstration.
 In Vienna. Rome and Budapest extra cordons of police were placed on duty as a precaution. Russia was the scene of customary Soviet jubilation and military exhibition, in which representations of each branch of the service participated. In Mexico a few men and women gathered before the American Con- sulate in Mexico City, shouting Death to Gringoes. Down with the Yankees" They were dispersed without bloodshed by police. In England and the United States May Day was celebrated by the Reds with oratory only.
