SYNOPSIS: Marriage for mcnoy means freedom, is the decision of Sam Sherrill, who lives in picturesque stable with her alf-brother and aris- tccratic step-father. She longs fer new clothes and travel, in stead of housekeeping and her work on newspaper. But when Peak Abbott, the young owner of the Express, asks her to marry him, she finds her wish to do so terrible" because she does not love him. Freddy Munson,- a reporter, asks her net to marry Abbott and sug- gests that she take an apart ment in town and live her own life. Sam, however is bound by the request of her dead mother to take care of Fourth Alder sea, her stepfather, and her half-brcther, Nelson. Peak Ab- bctt finally tells Sam, I'm gO- ing to ask you to marry me, even though you don't care for me the way you might"

quiet. Sam found Freddy Munson.
 T want to thank you for my Christmas present" she said.
 You're welcome Freddy said. T wonder why sent it. I must like you. That's it. l do like you. In my opinion you're nice girl. !"
 Sam laughed. Freddy, you're be- coming sentimental
 He grinned. That's right. If I don't look out I'll become slushy.' He was reaching for his coat, when a voice shouted his name.
 When he came back he was scowling. Sorry, but I have to go out on an assignment. You can go to my place, or trail along with me"
 Could I go with you?" Sam was pleased. Come on, let's go."
 That evening, Sam saw places she had never before seen, and she saw a new side of Freddy
 Freddy at his work was intent and efficient. AS the story devel- oped, Sam found herself regarding her tall companion with an in- creasing respect.
 Will you take me on another story soon?" Sam asked.
 of course I'll take you"
 Freddy was as good as his word and during the course of that week Sam became familiar with police stations, hospitals, and the long corridors of City Hall. What do you think of the newspaper gamer" Freddy asked one day

own sullen. If you marry Peak | Abbott" he said with distinctness you ought to be thorough y ashamed of yourself"
 Sam stared. Don't you think that you'd better apologize?"
 His smile was not pleasant T see no reason for an apology"
 Very we'll" Sam was furious, but she kept her voice calm. T think I'd better be going now"
 While Sam was waiting for Fred dy to get his hat and coat, she saw her half-brother Nelson. He was dancing with a girl who seemed vaguely familiar. Sam watched with interest and saw that the girl in Nelson's arms was Martha Givens, the maid of all work.
 Freddy found Sam half way down the stairs. In silence they walked to Sam's little car.
 Good night, Miss SherrllI, lred- dy said mockingly. T trust that you may have delightful time with MT. Abbott at the Cricket Club"
 Thanks" said Sam. "Ill try"
 The Cricket Club was hot and crowded. The orchestra had been placed in a narrow hallway between the two table-lined rooms, which should have been a strategic point. At the far end of either room, how ever, it's melodies were almost en- tirely drowned out by the babble of voices with the result that the dancing couples were packed near the doorways in a struggling mass
 Sam tried to think about the beautiful spray of orchids on her shoulder She wanted to forget Nelson and Martha Givens, and the necessity of speaking to him about her She wanted to forget Freddy Munson. She wanted to forget Peak Abbott and the problem he pre- sented. Able to forget nothing, she was forced to surrender herself, smiling, from one pair of male arms to another.
 Finally the lights were turned out, as she sat at the table, and

Annual Affair Will Be Held in Parish Hall in
 November

The Church of the Nativity will hold the annual bazaar on Novem- Der 12, 13, and IA in Parish Hall Due to keen interest and able handling on the part of directors and to the generous spirit of the contributors, great success is anti cipated. This success will be two- fold, social as well as financial. h. deed the splendid entertainment prepared fully warrants attendance on the three days
 One feature of especial interest and attraction will be the award ing of three valuable and useful articles. These comprise a modern and convenient electric refrigera- tor, a moderate sized roll mangle, and a portable Underwood type writer.
 Due to the courtesy of the Alas ka Electric Light and Power Com pany and to George Simpkins, these articles are on exhibition. MT Simpkins has kindly offered to dis play the type writer in his store window while the electric refriger- ator and mangle may be viewed at the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company's show room.

tion,' Peak said. T want to marry you for two reasons. The first is Sam; that I love you rather ter ribly Second, I'm conceited enough, to hope that your feeling might change. Is that a foolish hope?'
 No Sam said. Tt very possibly might come true"
 Then that settles my side of the question Why should you marry me? Well, I'm not such bad young man. My gentle nature is a by-word in the community. In ad- dition to that, I'm rich. I could give you"
 "Don't!" Sam pleaded desperate ly. Please don't
 All right. I wish you'd think it over"
 T will"
 "Fair enough" He got to his feet. What about New Years Eve?"
 She smiled up at him faintly. T suppose I'll go."
 Swell" He grinned at her, and strode away down the corridor.
 As Sam passed through the city room she met Freddy.
 I'm thinking of giving party at my place the night after Christ mas" he said. Could you come? Good Meet me here about nine"

 He drowned. Would it?"

 Finally he said abruptly: What shall we do on New Years Eve?" She shook her head. I'm sorry, I'm going to the Cricket Club"
 oh" He scowled With Peak Abbott"
 Yes" Sam realized, with almost a sense of shock, how little she had thought of Peak during the past week. The week had been vivid interlude-an interlude for which Freddy was entirely respon- sible.
 Freddy said causally: I'm get ting restless. I think I'll throw my job and move on. St. Louis or Kansas City" He was elaborately careless. I'm tired of this town"
 "Oh!" Sam sat perfectly still for a moment. Then she said quietly I'll miss you, Freddy"
 He looked her in the eyes, his

Sam knew that the New Year had arrived. Someone touched her arm
 Miss Sherrill?" The uniformed attendant looked harried. You're wanted on the telephone. I've been trying to find you for ten minutes, but"
 Sam, vaguely alarmed, pushed her way through the crowd. Who would telephone her at this hour? Had Sonny been hurt in an auto mobile accident? Was Fourth i'll?
