 hand. "Gary, you got to help me. This is a big thing. It's almost Mary choked. "It's almost the same as Rosemary's life"
 Before Mary went to bed she paused beside Rosemary's crib. Such tiny mite. And she was theirs, hers and Gary's. She bent and pressed her lips gently against the pinched cheek, so waxen. go soft. Mary's arms ached to catch her baby and hold her close.
 If anything happened to Rose mary-the awful fear was agony. 1t couldn't. God couldn't be so plenty of fresh milk. Old Cy had never had any children. He couldn't understand that you might even steal cow--do anything. Cy could not understand that. God could.
 She prayed the next morning and the next night. Friday came At noon Gary didn't even notice the hot biscuits. Slowly, methodic-' ally chewing each mouthful, hl4 eyes clung to his plate.
 "Cy was over this morning. Said he's going to get the COW tonight. His voice was tight. If we only owed him 50 cents he ain't the kind that'd forget it."
 Twenty-Five dollars, Mary thought. It might as well be a million. A lump rose in her throat. She caught herself up abruptly. A great one she was, giving up the first thing. Of course God Mesnt going to let her down. God daer't let down people who trusted Him, who depended on Him. A swift sense of well-being swept through her and she felt better. She felt treasured without knowing why.
 At 7:30 o'clock Gary came in with two pails of foaming milk. "Our last milking" he told Mary bitterly, "Old Cy's coming up tho road now"
 She caught Rosemary up from her buggy. She felt tiny baby fin-| gers clutchina at her throat, gur-' gling softly, and held her closer aA though fearful old Cy's greedy hands might snatch her away.
 She prayed silently: Dear God, I am counting on You"
 She sank to a chair to wait. Si-' lently she watched Cy come unin-s vited into the kitchen. He bit off a chew of tobacco and rolled it around in his mouth. Holding Rosemary in the crook of her arm she folded her hands together to! still their shaking.
 Wal" Cy spat juicily across the door sill. My old woman says she ain't goin' to have that baby over here without milk. She says the cows hers and you can have tt whether you pay for it or not.

Mary was in the garden helping Gary when old Cy Griff1th came up the lane. Before he could spit out his cud of tobacco she begged, Let us keep the COW three more days and I promise you we'll have the $25."
 He couldn't take the COW. Not now, with Rosemary, day after day, lying so pale and listless. Thin, unGernourished." the doc- tor had said. "Give her milk plenty of fresh milk. That's what she needs"
 Old Cy shook off her hand. He spat at stone in the path. You've had the COW a week and ain't paid me. If you sold everything you got, you couldn't raise $25. I ought a knowed that when let you have the cow"
 Mary saw the dull red flush that spread up into Gary's face, deep ening the tan, Listen, Cy, you can say anything you want to me-" he halted, his hand gripped the hoe handle convulsively, until His knuckles stood out, bony white, but you cant talk to her that way"
 Mary flashed him tremulous smile. Dear Gary. Aged beyond his years by the struggle that had been theirs for the last eighteen months to keep everything they possessed from being auctioned at sheriff's sale. Up at dawn, still working long after sundown, never word of complaint.
 "Gary, let me handle this, please. she begged him.
 Mary took a deep breath and faced old Cy. Did you ever hear of faith moving a mountain?" never seen 1t and neither has no- body else. And listen"
 Mary didn't listen. She told him: Faith is going to produce $25 for us."
 Faith" old Cy spat again con- temptuously. This ain't a Sunday school lesson. We're talkin' about a COW and want my $25 CT else the COW. And I aint got all day to talk about it, either. Faith ain't never paid any mans bills yet as how I know"
 "Cy Griffith. you ought to be ashamed of yourself" Mary stood with her head held high, straight and slim in her faded blue ging- ham, her cheeks flushed, her blue eyes gleaming a challenge, and be- hind the challenge something soft CT and deeper.

FOUR HORSES
DIE IN BLAZE
Fire Destroys Playground
Barn; City Man in
Hospital.

One man was in city hospital, an
other was nursing slight burns and
a large barn on the Indiana state
Playground was a smoldering ruin
today as the result of a fire which
blazed spectacularly late last night
to bring death to four harness
horses valued at approximately
$500 and destruction to several
hundred dollars worth of equip
ment and feed.
The horses were in the stable OF
Septer F. tSepD Palm, $3.50 Wash
ington boulevard, noted trainer OF
PAGERS and trotters. Fourteen 9TH
er harness horses were led to safety
Some of these were the property OF
E. J. Baker, st. Charles, Ill.
The man in city hospital, Charles
Campbell, SO, was hero of the fire
Sleeping in the stable, he was awak-
ened by a companion, Andrew
Smiley, who had been aroused by
the smoke. The two Stablenlen then
led the terrorized horses through
the flames, which had gained con-
siderable Roadway.
Campbell continued his work until
he was overcome by smoke. Mr.
Smiley, who had aided him in
bandaging the horses eyes and lead
ing them through the fire, was
burned slightly.
AS Campbell and Smiley led the
horses from the barn, they handed
the horses brides to persons at
tracted to the scene by the flames
and noise. One such Standerby, il
his anxiety to get closer to the fire
dropped the bride Of horse he wa
holding and the panic-Stricken ami

element that prevailed, before hC

had pounded desperately back anc
forth in two or three-block shuttle
along Thirty eighth street like some
riderless charger in a polo game.
The first alarm was turned in al
1925 and the second fifteen min
utes later. The origin of the blaze
could not be determined, but there
were no hints of incendiarism. L
was under control an hour after
fremen first reached the barn, ar
old structure in the northeastern
part of the Playground.

New Obstacle Is Added to
Couples Plans; Wedding

Bvt aifed Prcss

BIZ iHffrd Prfss
HOLLYWOOD. Oct. 25. - Threat
OF disinheritance was added today
as a new obstacle TO the romance
Of Ellen Wilson McAdoo and Rafael
Lopez De Onate. dark-haired mo-
ton picture actor.
Her father, United States Sena-
tor William Gibbs McAdoo, will cut
her of without the proverbial penny
If she pursues her intention of
marrying the 38-year-old actor,
Colonel William G. Neblett, the
senator's law partner, declared.
Colonel Neblett has been Senator
McAdoo's unofficial agent in the
affair. challenging De Onate to
prove he is not of Filipino blood.
Ellen has no money of her own, .
Mr.. Neblett asserted. All she has IS
a monthly allowance given her by
her father. This, and all future
financial aid, will be denied her if
she goes ahead with her wild plan
TO marry a man whom her father
has never seen and of whom he
knows nothing"
Faced by so many difficulties,
l9-year-old Ellen and her fiancee
announced all plans were off for an
immediate marriage. Nevertheless,
to Illustrate any chance of elope-
ment, Colonel Neblett notified coun-
ty clerks in Nevada and Arizona to
demand proof of De Onate's claims
Of Spanish lineage should they ap-
ply for a license to marry. The
lawyer said he was confident they
would attempt an elopement.
Tomorrow, the couple is legally
free to apply for a license at River
side. Cal. Their notice of intention
to marry expires then, but it was
questionable that they would return
even though the actor insists he
has documentary proof he was born
of Spanish parents in Manila. Cali
fOrnia law and also that of Nevada
and Arizona, prohibits CaucaSians
and MalayanS from intermarrying.
That the granddaughter OF the
late President Woodrow Wilson is
determined to marry Onate APP
peared certain. Both claimed to
have the support of Miss McAdoo's
mother, Mrs. Eleanor Wilson Nc
Adoo. the senator's divorced wife.
Mrs. McAdoo declined to discuss
the romance beyond stating the
marriage was indefinitely post
poned."
