CAMP AICN OF
AIR DEFENSE
Systematic Drilling Of

Going Forward

BERLIN, Aug. 7-UP).--
Germany is combining her de-
mands for an effective defensive
air force with a systematic cam
paign for civilian protection in
case of bomb, or gas attack from
the air.
Sensational reports printed re-
Gently that strange foreign planes
had appeared over Berlin and
dropped anti-Nazi propaganda lit
erature have added impetus to the
movement.
Recently in Berlin authorities
inangurated a course of instruc-
ton in civilian defense. At the
same time in Silesia extensive
tests were being conducted in
practical measures against attack
Breslau, chief city of the section,
is only 10 minutes from the Dor
der, and would be particularly
vulnerable to an enemy air force.
The tests. which lasted a week,
included all conceivable emer-
gency measures. Ii is planned to
continue them in other parts of
the Reich in an effort not only to
develop the best means of defense
hut to impress the civilian popula-
ton with the Importance of pro.
lection from air attack.
Meanwhile. however. the gov
eminent will continue to campaign
for a defensive air force strong
and fast enough to combat enemy
planes.

Thank goodness none OF the girls

Special Session
of Solons Would
Prove Unpopular
Wisdom of Extra Sitting
for Sales Tax Relief
Is Doubted
The Times-News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH. Aug. Comments
on the organization of a North
Carolina Just Tax association
agree almost universally with the
predicate of unpOpularity, and
they concur in the opinion that
Governor Ehringhaus will find it
hard to ascend to other great PC
sitions if he decides TO go out for
them.
But there is a lot Of other con-
versatiOn to the effect that over
agitation may result in 4 deal Of
foreign business, that in order
properly to present the Odium of
the sales tax there may be adj
vanced u new reason Cor going
outside the state to trade.
Another view as to Paul Leon
ards proposed campaign is eX-
pressed. Mr.. Leonard thinks suf-
iicient campaigning may force the
calling of special session of the
general assembly, but that would
of itself publish calamity. Nobody
wishes any more legislatures un-
til one is compelled by eonstitu-
tion to convene here. And any
campaign manager who published
fOretime his purpose to assem-
BILE the legislature in extraordi-
nary session brings extraordinary
resentment down upon his head.
Nor would the average states
man undertake now to offer the
substitute revenue measure. The
revival in business may settle that
question. In the celebrated 1881
session, Frank l.. Dunlap, leading
the opposition to the sales tax
agreed to impose one if the advo.

worry about on that score.
Suddenly Eve was conscious OF
that cheap. nondescript frame
that held her mothers picture.
Always she had planned to buy
better one, but always there had
been something she had wanted
for herself. Now she was ashamed
that Dick should see ker mothers
picture in this frame. 1t almost
seemed to her that he wouli
know about the various things
she had bought for herself with
money that might have bought a
frame. She would buy a new one
in New York-a lovely. silver one.
As she packed fer the trip Eve
remembered regI etfully that
she really had very little beside
her clothes to take 10 ner new
home. She had never, as do so
many girls, bought pretty things
to adorn her future home. Esther.
her sister, had dozens of lovely
gifts to take with her when she
married. Eul Esther bad had q
Icing engagement to a hometown
boy, showers. engagement parties,
and O wedding to which a wide
circle Of relatives and friends
we're invited. Those things
meant so much to Esther. With
Eve marriage was important. but
so was her career.
Eve recalled how she had
started at Bixby's. Determined
to get a foothold as a copy-writer,
she had made the rounds OF all
the agencies and all the stores
in Lake City before she reached
Bixby's. The fact that no one
needed a beginner and frankly
told her so, had not discouraged
her but merely put her on her
mettle. Then she did what she
considered a daring, preposterous
thing. She went to Bi2by's. most
exclusive store Of all, and begged

.anted to be Dicks wife with 81
little loss OF time as possible.
And now. even while she "ds
being married TO Dick, there aus
the menaelng ghost OF the MN
ng lowering between her and her
happiness.
To Eve her wedding was like a
disturbing dream. Would she get
back 10 the store before Mr..
Barnes sent for her? Would Dick
be angry and storm when she told
him what had happened that
morning2 Or would he be hurt
and sflenty Well. she wouldn't
tell him until she had learned for
sure-this evening after dinner.
No use 10 spoil the afternoon for
him She tried to focus her at
tenti0n on the words thar were
binding her 70 Dick. but there
were so m09y thoughts that kept
interfering.
Now the earnest young rector
was giving them his blessing.
Dicks ring was on her finger.
Dicks arms were around her.
Dicks lips. possessiye yet very
tender, pressed to hers Ewes
heart melted. In that moment
she was almost ready TO give up
everything. for Dick. Her work,
the coveted goal almost within
reach. the career she had dreamed
OF through her girlhood-these
she was moved TO heap on loves
altar as a sacrifice.
II was Dick who broke the
spell. Abruptly his arms re-
leased her. II was he who sug-
gested. almost brusquely, that
they'd have to hurry or they
would be late to work
DUT by the time his roadster
~ had nossd it's way through
the MONDAY traffic to the side en-
trance OF Bixhy's department
store. where Eve was employed as
q. COPY writer in the advertising
Office. Dicks mood had changed
again. His hand closed over hers.
Eve, sweetheart. don't go back!
I don't want my wife out earning
her living. Let me take care Of
you, darling. You know-the
kind OF marriage We talked about
last ntght-that's what I want.

I don't know. Something came
up In the Office this morning
something unexpected and ter
ribly important. I'll tell you
about It this evening. Bye,

AR. BlXBY frowned slightly
t'A "Yes. you are TO start to-

know, Miss Marshall leaves Sat

lowing Monday.

an exultant yet frightened Eve.
Eve knew that this trip to New
York meant that the management
at Bixby's had almost certainly
decided upon her as the successor
to Alice Marshall. When she az
cepted the expense money for Inc
Trim. she felt she had sealed her
fate. 1t was the thing she had
wontnd. of course. She had slaved
10 get where she was. Ewes
work always had come before her
Measures and ever since she be-
gan working she had bent all her
energy toward one goal-to be-
come manager Of an advertising
office. This promotion was long
and important step toward that
ambition. ...s.
The expense money exchanged
for Travellers checks and tucked
safely into the chamois bag with
her precious wedding ring. Eve
went to the Y. w. c. A. where
she had roomed ever since com
ing to Lake City. and packed a
bag for the New York trip.
The small, shabby, room at the
Y that she had occupied these
last busy, happy months of her
girlhood already seemed a little
strange. a little deserted. Eve
had stayed on here even after she
could have afforded more attrac-
tive and comfortable quarters.
This decision was prompted en-
tirely by economy. The building
was conveniently near her work,
and provided room and board at
very reasonable rate. Eve pre-
ferred to economic thus and put
the money saved into pretty
clothes I'd educati' al advance
ment. Eve was careful; thrifty.
She did nothing without a def
mite purpose.
From the little table that
served as writing desk the pic
tured face of Ewes mother smiled
at her from its cheap frame
the warm, steady mother-smlle |
that had been unfailing all
through Ewes life. Now she
paused contritely before that pic
ture of Kate Bayless. 1t was
wrong, of course, not to have
written to her mother that she
was marrying Dick today. II was
the first time she had ever shut
her mother out from any impor-
tant event of her life. True. she
and Dick had decided hastily.
And Of course her mother was
certain to approve of Dick. Eve
reflected proudly. Her father.
