CHAPTER NINETEEN

MYTH the shutting of the bed

away from her all sense of worry
and tension. She threw herself
into the part she must play so
thoroughly that thereafter she
would forget it only in the few
stolen moments alone with her
husband.
And it was as well that she was
ready for, as she ran lightly down
the last few steps into the central

There will be a long dry spell
for the opponents as North, the de-

The ace of spades is played, East
discards the deuce of clubs, dunn
my the four of hearts and West
the three of diamonds. Three
more rounds of spades are led by
North, the declarer. East discards

For Its Trouble

Los ANGELES. March .. W.P)-
State regulation or control to aid

again was before its leaders today
following "A stockholders speech OF
p. L. ST. Clair, president OF the
Union oil Company OF California.
Lack of cooperation among oil
companies was given by St. Clair
as a sufficient reason FOR assump-
tion of control by the government.
The oil industry OF California
should have been making money
Tor the last few years instead OF
losing it. the Union Oil company
head declared.
We may have lost our export
business but our domestic business
has not declined TO any great eX-
tent II the sO-Called big men OF
the industry would cooperate a
little more. use intelligence. cease
destroying values and giving the
refined product away. the OIL busi-
ness would be something % be

He held little hope that the
Sharkey bill. nov awaiting cOnfir-
nation by the voters at a state

conditions. ST. Clair explained that
the DILL possibly would be success
full If business men were appointed
to the board the bill provides for.

too much
