family and she'd have all her own
money for clothes.
This certainly would be better
than marrying Derry Meade and be-
coming a social outcast in Oakdale.
No matter what status she might
occupy there as the divorced wife of
Gaylord Prentiss, she would not be
accepted by the towns elite as Mrs.
Derry Meade. Derry could marry
into the social set and be regarded
favorably, but If he married outside
Of it he would be lost, along with
his wife.
IIOW could she ever have thought
IL i of marrying Derry? Irene was
impatient with herself and her i'm
patience put an end to her reverie.
She put on her most becoming
morning frock, changed it after
lunch to her most fashionable after
noon dress and then, just before
dinner, donned her loveliest infor-
NAL evening gown.
Tommy arrived shortly before s.
He had hurried to get into clean
clothes and come directly to the
Everett home.
Beryl, an intensely miserable
spectator, watched the couple drive
away in Tommys new car. Shed
just reached home in time to
change her knitted dress for silk
one, grab a bite Of dinner, and then
rush back to the store to make
sandwiches for a boys club.
Her heart was heavier than ever.
Tommy had handed Irene into that
car with the gestures of noble
man assisting his lady fair into his
chariot.
Irene praised the car and Tommy
thought it was generous OF her not
to compare it with the motors the
Premises owned.
Before they returned home from
the short drive Irene had decided
definitely that she would break with
Derry Meade She felt she had
gained considerable ground with
Tommy.
When he said goodnight to me, u
she congratulated herself, I'm sure
he wanted to kiss me-"
But the break with Derry did
not come about as Irene had an
ticipated Next morning she re-
Trained from destroying Derry's let
ter unread and was glad she had.
For the young man threatened to
come to see her, thus breaking his
promise to Gaylord. He declared
he couldn't stand it any longer
without at least a brief visit with
her.
Irene was tempted to write him
a long, sisterly letter. but caution
interviewed. Derry was sure to
come bounding on like a rubber ball
at the end of string.
Then Tommy would know about
him. Tommy wouldn't forgive her
for this latest affair.
She had played with fire and now
she must put out the embers, Irene
told herself, at the same time max
ing plans to accomplish this pur-
pose.

INSURGENTS Baked
Threatened Cabinet Crisis
Averted in Germany.

BIZ United Press
BERLIN, June ia threat to
dissolve the reichstag and call new
elections was believed today to have
averted cabinet crisis.
Chancellor Heinrich Bruening
was given semi dictatorial powers
by President Paul Won Hindenburg
after a conference at the presi-
dents vacation quarters.
There had been r7rsistent rumors
of possible resignation of the
Bruening ministry in the face OF
attacks on the recent decree en-
forcing new economies, and on the
withdrawal of foreign credits from
Germany.
A government spokesman said
that it was believed the linden

sufficient to bring the insurgent
political factions into line and
avert cabinet crisis.

CHAPTER FORTY

4 4
MRS. EVERETT was looking
WI serious as she handed the let
ter TO Irene. The girl took it and
put it on the stand by her bed
without a second glance, waiting to
be left alone to read it.
Her mother assumed a firm pose
and said heavily, "You won't like
1t, but I've made up my mind to
ask who writes those letters to
you"
irene was surprised, and showed
1t. "What?" she said, sitting up in
bed and looking as though she
couldn't quite believe what she had
heard. Imagine her mother coming
at her like that!
It's a man, and I know 1t IS"
ner mother went on, with the blunt
ness OF the timid suddenly becom-
ing assertive. you may think YOU
are able to take care of yourself, but
I'm your mother, and l want to
know what's going on"
We'll, of all things!" Irene
breathed half-amused, half-angered
I'm willing to believe that Cav
lord is all to blame for your trouble
with him." Mrs. Everett continued,
but know you're going to be
talked about if you start running
around with Tommy Wilson in that
car OF his and you've no right to ac-
eept attentions from him while you
are married to Gaylord. To saw
nothing Of this other mani"
She pointed finger to the lette,
on the stand, and Irene laughed. 2
bit nervously.
"Oh-"Derry!" she said CASUALLY
Why, he's only a kid, and / guess
you know how kids are. They get
foolish ideas and imagine they're
going to feel the same for the rest
OF their lives, and all that, but il
doesn't amount to anything"
1T could amount to something
TO girl whose husband is gettine
divorce from her." Mrs. Everett
said ominously. 1.-THE boy lives ir
Oakdale, doesn't he?"
Irene lifted her eyebrows. "The
postmark?" she said with an infiec-
ton that brought a flush to hel
mothers face.
What if I did look at it?" she
challenged. Many mother would
have opened these letters and read
them!"
"Yes?" Irene returned. IF II
comes that I'll leave"
Mrs. Everett was about to retort
In kind when her husbands voice
arose from below, calling for his
breakfast. The interruption pre-
vented what might have been a Sc
rious quarrel between mother and
daughter.
XXTHEN she was gone Irene seized
w the letter and tore it into
bits without reading it. Why
couldn't Derry have some sense!
She'd asked him time and again not
to write to her every day.
For half cent she'd not answer
one Of his letters again. But then
she told herself, "the young idiot
would hotfoot it from Oakdale and
spoil everything"
Everything" was Tommy. Just
the other evening before he'd start
ed for school, Tommy'd said that
flirts ought to be shot"
OF course she hadn't meant to
encourage Deery, but Oakdale hadn't
been very entertaining. There were

NATURAL Gas
MILNE ron
TAX BURDE 5

Natural gas may be next
to fan under the burden OF
state taxes. according to the
Roundup Record I'm the
heart Of 8Eontana's coal min
ing area, where spreading
use Of the vapOr fuel has
been keenIy felt. The
article follows:
a tax on natural gas viii be
proposed in this session Of the
legislature. II plans now being
made are carried out. Those
sponsoring the bill say the tax
will be slight and VIII be design
ed especially to get some revenue
for the state from gas that Is be-
ing exported from Montana. Such
tax has been suggested before,
but until recent years the idea
OF placing a tax on this product
has been more OF less visionary,
for the reason that until recently
the use Of natural gas in the
state has not been general.
Now. however this fuel is
coming into wider use in Mon
tana. Billings. Havre and shelby
have been employing natural gas
for some time. In 1928 Great
Falls was added to the list OF
consumers. And now there is
talk Of piping the fuel to such
cities as Helena, Anaconda. Butte
and Livingston and Bozeman.
Also there is a project reported
to pipe the gas to Spokane.
1T Is commended BY several
state legislators that If the prin-
cipIe Of taxing metal mines is cor
rect, the principle OF taxing
natural gas is correct. for It is a
detriment of the coal mining
wealth or the state, a resource
that primarily belongs to all the
people.
1T is also pointed out that gas
is coming in competition with
coal, produced within the state,
which besides the regular net
proceeds tar also pays a produc-
ton tax Of five cents per ton.
In view OF this It is only fair
that natural gas should be taxed
on a par with that now paid by
coal. If natural gas is to remain
virtually tax free It would enjoy
a distinct advantage to the great
detriment OF the soal mining
industry OF the state
