Whole afternoons slipped by

would read on in her rich, vel

her at midnight to taste the
oyster loaf, all brown and but
terry, that Jim went down to get.
Jim Scrambling eggs and clans
in a big black frying pan on the
kitchen stove, waiting on Millie
as if she were a queen. And
then Jim going away. Going
back to the sea.
After that things weren't so
clear. Val could never recall
it surely. Things happened too
fast, she was too beWildered,
too unhappy because Millie was
sad. Toward the end it was
Just nightmare.
Jim's Faith
Millie cried terribly when Jim
went.
Il can't be brave and send
you away with a smile," she
told him. I'm not that kind.
I'm weak. I can't stand it.
Loneliness-you don't know
what it does to me. 1 go crazy.
Crazy! Do you hear? Oh, Jim,
if you love me, don't leave me.
Let the ship go-oh, my dear,
don't don't leave me alone!"
Val had been afraid. Afraid
of Miles streaked, working
face. Afraid of something wild
and abandoned about the way
she ran after him, crying and
clutching at his blue coat.
The Washington times., 1932-08-23

Millie shouldn't do that. it
wasn't. it wasn't nice.
But Jim wasn't afraid.
you do love me, don't you,
girl?" he cried, coming back
and holding her close to his
heart. And I know you'll be
waiting. I've no fear. Goodbye
and God bless you. Goodbye,
little Valentine, take care OF
my Millie!"
For the second time in ValS
memory, the sea captains blue
eyes were wet.
And then he was gone, and
somehow things went on with
out him. Miles brief domes-
ticity was over. Dust settled on
the black screen with the
golden dragon. The ivory
Buddha and the jade lotus
flower took on the same
grimy hue. Dishes piled up in
the kitchen sink. Millie
yawned through one paper
backed novel after another
and never got up until noon.
Lazy Hours
Val was day scholar at
the sisters school now. Les
sons and mild games with the
other black-frocked little girls.

whom she loved. Order and
peace and quiet.

a little girl like Val to know?
She thought it was perfect,
and years later, when she had
her own apartment, she labor
ed innocently and a little
clumsily to make it like her
memory of Miles.
The big rooms were high cell
inged and sunny. The jade
and ivory and silk, souvenirs
of Jim's seagoing days, lent a
deceptive air of fragrance. Pots
of pansies, five-fingered fern

Millie was spending a lot of
time in the kitchen.

lieve it. Still, there may be
something in it, and you can't
afford to miss a bet when
you're in love-remember that,

rings and heavy watch chains.
The end came so suddenly, so
cruelty. Millie kissing her awake

suddenly land on him in the
dark until the place was in an
uproar.
The confusion was increased
by the efforts of at least five
people to reach the lights in a
hurry. In their haste they bowled
each other over, also the waiter
who had been posted at the
SWitch-and a full two minutes
elapsed before the lights were

spraWled on the floor. She had

over in a heap.

Antrim's guests were all close
friends and they took Mikes
antics goodnaturedly.
Mike, no longer content with
his bouquet, was galloping
around the table, slapping all
the flowers in sight. I gath
cred him up and took him out
to his place in the shed, and
Manila's historic New Year
riot came to an end.
Mike, alas, met a very in
glorious death. The victim of
too much rich food given him
by foolish visitors, he devel-
oped intestinal trouble and died
shortly after I left Manila for
Borneo. I had left him at
the hotel, planning to pick him
up on my way home from
Singapore.
But don't think I no longer
see Mike. He is a nice little
rug in Antrim's quarters at
the hotel and whenever I visit

hello to little Mike on the floor.

Mike to a shed behind the

by people who had heard about
him and again he was enjoying
wide popularity.
The climax of the series of
festivities that week was the

close friends. A big round table
was set for 16 and beautifully
decorated with flowers.

"Let's give him his own pri-
vate bouquet to play with" this
friend of Mixes persisted. We
decided to try the experiment
and, curiously enough, it worked,
Mike was fairly quiet, occasion
ally slapping his bouquet with
needless violence, but staying
where we placed him, which was
all we asked. He got a bit out of
hand when one of the guests
tried to give him a drink of
champagne, sending the glass
skimming across the table with
a slap of the paw, but we soon
quieted him down to studying
and mutilating hi posies.
All went we'll until the LIGHTS
were turned off for minute at
midnight and a terrific din
started. The horns, ratchets and
other noiSe-making devices of
the guests at the table, and the
shouting of crowds in the street,
and the ringing of bells and the
screeching of ships whistles in
the harbor were to much for
Mike. Whereupon he started a
riot. Not one of your puny little
riots. A real one. In record time
he upset glasses and bottles and
sent dishes crashing to the floor.

Gottfried Feder is the official political economist of the Nazis. He is just as modest as the rest of the Hitler leaders. He once publicly declared:
 "All I say or do will be history some day"
 He wrote the economic blanks of the party platform.
 Last of the Hitler inner cabi- net is Dr Franck, always known as Franck Third. This to distin- guish him from other Francks, who also are lawyers.
 He is the head of the Nazi le- gal department and one of the best advocates at the German bar. Elegantly dressed, clean shaven, with monocle pasted in his eye, Franck has successfully pleaded the case of many a Nazi, hauled up before the courts for in- fractions of the law.
