Public Health Association at their
annual meeting here Thursday

not only makes it a more desirable
place to live but also brings added
citizens and increased industry to it..
The expenditure of $3.50 per
capita or total of about $780,
100000 every year would be enough
to bring the best public health
practices to the people of the
United States. At present, however,
we are spending less than 81 per

I'VE as a nation are notorious for

a billion and our tobacco bill is
rapidly approaching the two billion

CHAPTER FoRTY-THREE

TOR an hour before Barney came
Il Celia waited impatiently. She
had spent restless night and slept
little, but she was not aware that
she was tired. Reaction from the
excitement of the last twenty-four
hours had not yet set in.
Celia had made discovery. and
everything else in the world paled
into unimportance. She knew she
loved Barney Shields.
Her heart had sung his name all
morning. Barney Shieldsl Barney

pain and hardship! Barney, SO
strong and self-reliant! Barney

Hearing his voice over the tele-
phone that morning had been like
hearing 1t for the first time.
Celia had laughed and promised
eagerly that she would be waiting
for him, but all that she wanted
to tell him remained unsaid. Had
he guessed2 Was 1t possible that
Barney did not know how every
thing in the world had changed
when he himself was the center of
that transformation?
One minute she hoped he under
stood. The next she was in fever
of impotence to tell him her heart
was his completely.
At luncheon Evelyn Parsons noted
the girls heightened color, her pre-
occupied manner. Shrewdly she
made deductions.
Have you had any news from the
young man who was in the fire?"
she asked casually.
Barney? Oh, yes, he telephoned.

in a sling, but he says it isn't a
bad break. He's coming this after

"Oh, I want you tol You'll like
Barney, too. Everybody does. He's
going to be here at g."
AT 8? Well, must certainly
manage to say how do you do at
least"
Mrs. Parsons turned the CONVEX
sation into other channels, but she
continued to watch Celia and take
stock of her observations.
For one thing, the girl was not
eating. Twice she started when
she was spoken to, and then flushed
and stumbled in her apologies. There
was far-away look in Celia's dark
eyes. Oh, yes, the signs were all
thereI
7 Isl had departed Immediately
IL after breakfast. 1t was Mrs.
Parsons custom to spend the hours
after luncheon either shopping or
at bridge. Celia had set O'Clock
as the time for Barney's call, con-
f1dent they would not be inter
rupted.
Are you going out?" she asked
as she and Evelyn left the lunch
con table.
"a little later. There are some
letters I really must attend to
first"
Celia mumbled something about
p manicure and slipped away to her
bedroom. She wanted to be alone.
Instead Of getting out buffer and
file size curled up in the one large
chair the room boosted and tried
10 plan exactly what her first
words to Barney would be.
She would welcome him at the
door herself. 1t would help to
overcome Barney's impression that
she lived surrounded by elegance
and luxury far beyond him.
Guilty. Celia remembered the
afternoon before when he had made
it plain he thought she did not
want to introduce him to her new
friends.
OF course she had tried to avoid
meeting Tod Jordan. At thought
of Jordan the girl realized she
faced another problem. Tod would
have TO be told she had been mis-
taken in saving she cared for him

STOCK PRICES SAG
IN SMALL TRADING
Market Continues DulI-Rail
and Baking Company
Issues Featured.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,
Associated Press Financial Writer,

NEW YORK, May 19.-Stocks were
sluggish and heavy at the beginning Of
the new week today, and the market
was deaf to Secretary Of Commerce
Lamont's prediction that business would
return to normal within three months.
The session was in curious contrast to
the eagerness Of professional traders to
forecasts a few weeks ago.
Business and trade reports coming to
hand over the week end were mostly
colorless and unimpressive, and during
the early hours of trading, the market
was even more torpid than on Saturday,
when trading was the slowest in nearly
two years. Such activity as developed
was largely bearish, and stocks failed
to display the firm undertone noted in
the dull trading late last week. u
A little bullish activity appeared in
the baking stocks, but failed to make
much Roadway. National Biscuit was
firmed reports that earnings were run
ming ahead Of last year, and q little
buying appeared in some of the rails.
Such recent strong spots as the amuse-
ment, farm implement and public util-
tty shares sagged, as traders, seeing no
prospect OF an early revival of the bull
market, took their profits. Steels were
depressed by continued uncertainty over
prices, and electric equipments were
sold In response to reports of slack
buying Of their products, although they
have been favored by the drop In cop
per prices.
One of the fist April railway net In
come reports to appear was that Of
Kansas City Southern, showing o fur
ther decline to $315,197, compared to
$405, 042 the previous month and $472,-
486 In April, 1929. April tobacco pro-
duction figures made their appearance,
and, showing moderate reductions from
April Of last year, were less favorable
than expected, in view of recent unofi-
cial reports of increasing sales.
Bearish operations became more ag-
gressive in the early afternoon. st.
Louis Southwestern, buoyant feature
last week, broke more than points,
and Case and Auburn Auto nearly as

Compared with 224,940,114 for April,
1929, this shows gain Of 9.95 per cent.

auditor testified in court here that not
only does James p. Jones, being tried
for embezzlement while treasurer of the
Virginia Methodist Orphanage, not owe
the orphanage anything, but that the
orphanage owes Jones $24,101.52.
The testimony of the witness, j. M.
Culbreth, followed closely that of F. l..
Worcester, another auditor, that Jones
had failed to account for more than
$37, 900 of orphanage funds. Jones, a
member of the State Legislature, Is
charged with embezzlement and larceny
totaling $37,976.40.

Culbreth's statement was in reply to
a question by M. j. Fulton, defense at
torney, as to the result of Culbreth's
audit of Jones records as treasurer of
the orphanage dating to August 6, 1880.
"At the close of business on August
6, 1880, the trustees of the Virginia
Conference Orphanage of the Methodist
Episcopal Church South owed Mr..
James P. Jones $24,101.52," the witness
replied.
He explained that this amount in
cluded two settlements made by Jones
in which he paid them $14,680.87 and
another on August 6. in which arrange
ments were made for payment to the
trustees of S23,011.78. Worcester had
testified that a shortage of $37,976.4 40
remained in spite of the settlements.
First Defense Witness.
Culbreth. who said he was certified
public accountant registered in Virginia
and North Carolina. was the first de-
Tense witness to testify since Jones

urer of the orphanage, from March IL,
1925, to June II, 1880, he received a
total of $1,126,172.86 in orphanage
funds, Culbreth testified During the
same time; he said, Jones paid out for
the orphanage $1,112,58173, which,
added to the $37,692.65 included in the
two settlements. made $1,150,274.38.

serious disorders
Only six arrests were made through
out the section and these were of young
men whose conduct is alleged to have
become disorderly. In Takoma Park
Sergt. Earl Burdine kept four auto
mobiles cruising through the streets
OF the town until / o'clock this morn
ing. AS result of this precaution he
did not find it necessary to make an
arrest.
