TROLLERS WILL
 ASK O'MALLEY
 FOR EXTENSION
(Ketchikan Chronicle)

A public meeting in Ketchikan, at which Alaska trollers will ap- peal to Henry OMalley, Commis- sioner of Fisheries, to extend the salmon trolling season after Au- gust 24, appeared in prospect to- day. At the regular weekly meet ing of the Commercial Club at the Blue Fox Cafe, the Alaska Trol- lers Association asked the club to support them in their request to MT. O'Malley for extension of the season.
 Club members discussed the prob lem from all angles and when it became known that MT. OMalley is expected to be in Ketchikan at the end of this month, a motion was passed endorsing the idea of a public meeting at which represeh- tatives of the club and the trollers' organization will be present.

suit, breathing heavily after
her swim from shore, con-
fronted them. Chester sprang
to his feet.
"Phyllis!" he erie d.
"What are you doing here
why"
81 came because | wanted
to warn you," said Phyllis
desperately. "She's deceiv-
ing you, Chester. She-has

Sibyl jumped to her feet.
"This girl is mad-mad

"Don't listen to her, Ches-
ter"
Phyllis turned on her rival
like a tigresS. Will you
deny" she asked in tense
measured tone, that You
are the wife Of Mark Lin
den?"
Sibyl was staggered. How
did this girl learn the secret?
For a long moment Sibyl
was silent. Then, with a
sneer. she turned on Phyllis.

to crashing parties to which
you are not invited, you
play the eavesdropper!"
"I did not!" declared
Phyllis Indignantly. "You

before I knew it and I
couldn't help overhearing. :"
Sibyl laughed malieiously.
Then she turned to Chester.
The dramatic developments
had stricken him momen-
tarily dumb. But now ne
looked at Sibyl frowning.
"Oh, very well," said the
girl, as though this was the
answer. 81 suppose there's
nothing to do but bid you
good highland ood-by-
Chester. I'll have the men
take you ashore in the
boat. F" Then. turning saw
agely upon Phyllis, 2" But,
I've half a mind to have
this meddling girl thrown
overboard-and make her

Chester drew himself up

clared, "there'l III be no need

AS Sibyl shrugged con-
temptuously and went for

from me, you sinful boy!-
Aren't you ashamed to mug
like this before Ann
Marie I"
"Sorry if / shocked you,
Sister Ann," Brooke grinned
up at Ann Marie and
winked one eye. He did
not move even a fraction
of an inch away from his
Jeanie.
"You don't shock me, "
Ann Marie answered evenly
as she brushed past them
on her way to the Back
Parlor.
And this was the truth.
She had seen far two much
love-making, or "mugging, "
as Jeanie called it, going on
in the house during the past
year or two to be at all en-
barrassed by the pair on the
piano bench.
For there was nothing
straightlaced about either
Jeanie or Alice. Almost any
good looking man who
wanted to kiss them could
and most of them did, so far
as Ann Marie could make
out.
"And why mott" Alice
had asked one night when
the three sisters were hav-
ing a hot and heavy argu-
ment over the question OF
love-making before an en-
gagement. eff You never
let a man kiss you before
you re engaged to him how
are you going to know that
you want to marry him and
let him kiss you all the rest
Of your natural life I"
That was her way Of
looking at it-and Jeanie s
way, too.
They had their own way
Of looking at a lot of things.
"The kind Of girl who
lands the men is the kind
who is just a beautiful little
fool, +" was one Of Jeanie s
favorite remarks. "A man

TOdGy's True
Story

nH I ILLS wandered
through the pine grove
back of the inn at
Graypoint in a desperate
frame Of mind for a girl
on a joyous summer vaca-
tiOn. She had hoped that
this fortnight at the sea-
side, with Chester and his
mother, would bring her
heart s desire. Often she
had pictured the scene to
herself. She and Chester
would be. strolling through
the dim and shady walks.
Chester would suddenly put
his arm around her and ask
the question And she,
long hungry for his love,
would say yes. " Then
this would be Eden. But
That was only dream
such a dream as never
comes true. For Sibyl Cor
don had also arrived at
GraypOint. She had come
laden with a dozen trunks,
ferried in from her yacht
that lay anchored half a
mile out. Her chauffeur,
too, had motored in with
her foreign car, now in the
Ritz garage, where Sibyl,
with her three servants had
taken the best suite. Yes,.
Sibyl had arrived with all
the fanfare of a movie star.
And Phyllis, with a woman's
intuition, had long realized
that Sibyl wanted Chester.
And, of course, Chester
was impressed. Not only by
Sibyl's queenly encourage,
but by her dark beauty
much more snowy than
Phyllis golden, apple BIOS
som type.
Phyllis at once had
noticed the change in Ches-
ter, his lack of enthusiasm
when with her, his periods
of preoccupation. She had
also noticed with bleeding
heart, that instead of 60
ing into the ocean with her
yesterday, Chester had
chosen to ride beside Sibyl
as she drove off in her
snappy foreign machine.
All these thoughts crowd
ed in upon Phyllis as she
wandered among the pines,
and finally, like a weary
little girl, sank down at the
foot of a great tree.
Something kept her glued
The Washington times., 1929-08-28
of your life for taking John
Lawler away from you "

of your life for taking John
Lawler away from you! :"
She burst into sudden loud
sobs and went flying up the
stairs.
Ann Marie watched her
go. But she did not make a
single move to follow her.
SIZE knew that nothing
would keep Alice away from
the party-and that the
tears she was shedding now
were only crocodile tears"
and meant nothing. Alice
had always been able to
turn on her tears when she
wanted her own way about
something.
" And she has it now -
Ann Marie said to herself,
opening the door of the
Front Parlor-the Living

ing everything to make
Chester forget any other al
legiance he might have-tO
carry him off his feet with
a display of her wealth and
beauty.
Darkness fell, with a
clouded moon. The lights
came out on the yacht.
Phyllis alone on the shore,
could see the moving fig
ures on the decks, could
hear faint strains of music
coming over the water.
For an hour Phyllis sat
alone in the gloom, on the
sand, chin in hand.
Then the thought came
nppermost-she must save
Chester from this deceitful
girl, even if she lost him
herself. Sibyl had no right
to make love to him-she a
secretly married woman.
Phyllis at length arose
with resolution: She hur-
ried toward the bathing
houses and was swallowed
up in the shadows.
On the after deck of the
yacht, lolling on a gaily
cushioned seat, sat Sibyl,
brilliant in color and plum
age, while Chester, seated
on a deck chair facing her,
looked into her eyes fasci-
mated. He sighed and turned
away for a moment.
"Why the blues, Ches-
teri" asked Sibyl gently.
"Aren't you enjoying your
self here with me? l must
confess that it's like heaven
to me-Out here on the quiet
water, away from the noisy
crowd-what is the trouble,
DEAR"
Chester turned again and
looked at her as Caesar
might have gazed at the al
Turing Cleopatra. He knotted
his hands together.
"Oh, it's fine of you to
ask me here-I'm having a
ripping good time, " he
faltered. "Just thinking
that 3 all"
"Thinkingf" asked Sibyl
tenderly, "thinking-of what
of whom? Look into my
eyes, Chester - and con-
fess-"
Chester leaned farther
toward her. And as he did
so, a dripping form clam
bered over the rail TO the
deck. A girl in a bathing
The Washington times., 1929-08-28

to her seat on the ground,
motionless as a squirrel.
Then she suddenly recog-
nized the voice of the girl.
1t was that of Sibyl.
"What is it you have to
say to me?" Sibyl asked
petulantly. "And why
didn't you say it without
bringing me into these de-
testable woods7"
"You know very well, P"
replied the man tensely, II
brought you here for strict
privacy. The inn is full of
listeners and 500. And [
brought you here to ask
you when you re going, to
end this masquerade-when
you are coming to me as my
wife-to live as Mrs. Mary
Linden?"
Sibyl laughed ironically.
"YOu must be crazy" was
her answer.
"When We were married
in the West last summer, ;"
the man went on. But he
got no farther. Married Z"
sneered Sibyi. Don't be
a clown! That dramatic
stunt we went through after
the wild party at the ranch
was no marriage. Be rea-
sonable. "
"That was no mock mar
riage, - continued Mark
earnestly. "It was as gen
uine as any ever performed.
| went through it because
I loved you, Sibyl. I'll al
ways love you"
Sibyl shrank away from
him as he tried to take hold
of her. Then she turned and
ran as fast as she could be-
tween the trees, the man
following and begging her
to stop, calling her name as
she went.
That night Sibyl Gordon
entertained aboard her
yacht. But it was not an
elaborate party. Chester
was the guest of honor and
the only others were an en-
gagged couple asked for the
sake of propriety.
Phyllis, wan and almost
hopeless, saw from the dock
the party of four embark in
the power craft for the
yacht. Her heart sank. It
seemed that ultimate disss-
ter had come. For again
she saw that Sibyl was do.
