FALLS CHURCH
SCHOOL CRUX
OF PROTEST

FAIRFAX COURT HOUSE Va,
July IA lively meeting of the
Fairfax County School Board is
expected here today as the ques-
ton of transferring a number of
pupils from the Falls Church
school to other county schools
is weighed by member of the
school board.
A committee representing the
parents of the county children
now attending the Falls Church
school are expected to appear at
the meeting to voice their pro-
tests to any change in the pres
ent arrangement. A petition with
scores of names also protesting
the move is said to be in readi-
ness for presentation to the board
today.
With Falls Church having it's
own school district, a tuition is
charged the pupils from outlying
sections of the county who at
tend this school. In past years
this tuition fee has been paid
by the county board OF super
VisorS.
Pointing out that the number
Of county pupils attending this
school in Falls Church has in
creased to such an extent dur
ing the past two years that it has
crowded the Falls Church school
beyond efficient operation, and
necessitated the county paying
approximately $4,000 per year
for tuition, the county board of
supervisors recently adopted a
resolution that would discontinue
this tuition payment and furnish
transportation for the children
to be carried to one of the coun,
tvs schools in some strategic
point.

FAIRFAX TAX
REVENUES HIT
1929 LEVEL

FAIRFAX COURT HOUSE,
July 7.-Marking the highest per-
centage of collections in the
county since 1929, Fairfax county
ended it's fiscal year here June 80
with 1927 per cent Of its total
county levy collected, it was re-
vealed today by F. w. Huddleson,
county treasurer.
With a total levy of $341, 247.68
to collect, the treasurer said that
at the close of business June 80
that there was a balance OF
$58,934.36 still delinquent.
A 6 per cent interest charge
will be added to all delinquent
taxes after June 80 and continue
until the taxes are paid. This
interest charge is in addition TO
the 5 per cent penalty placed
against uncollected taxes after No
VemDer ~, laSC year.
With the collection for the year
1929 registering SO per cent Of the
total levy of $414,344.70, Treas
urer Huddleson said that the de-
linquencies scared the following
year to reach an all-time record
of 81 per cent uncollected taxes,
as of June, 1880.
Bonus money was attributed as
partially responsible for the good
collections this year, Mr.. Huddle-
son pointed out, adding that in
some cases the soldiers had not
only paid their current taxes but
had paid delinquent taxes which,
in some cases, ran Jack as far as
five years.

saddest part of it all was that she had
found out in spite of herself. Timothy's
face was very troubled, but not
penitent. Timothy wouldn't be re-
pentant, she thought. He always
stuck by what he had done even when
he admitted that he had been wrong
to do it.
"I've only the age-old thing to say
to you, Sheila," he said at last. That
all this hasn't made any difference in
the way l feel about you. 1t hasn't
anything to do with you, even. It's
quite apart - created by an entirely
different set of feelings and circum-
stances. It's taken nothing from what
I've given to you"

went on steadily. And | don't re-

Eyes, l know" said Sheila. What
he was saying had not much meaning
to her, but she was conscious that he
was suffering and that his face was
haggard. Still he persisted, with that
fierce impenitence that was Tim
othy's.
II don't want you to think that it
was mere physical infatuation," he
continued, proudly, not sparing him

that was meant to care for her. I'm
trying to tell you the truth - l don't
know how women feel about these
things -"
Il think we'd rather be lied to, a
little" said Sheila, wearily.
He left her, at last, when she had
gone to bed. She heard him go down
and across the court and knew that he
would spend most of the night walking
off his anxiety. Then the darkness
closed in on her and she was alone
with the old house, the old house that
had promised to help her. Was that
true, or had she dreamt it? She was
very tired: maybe she could rest and
let the house sit up and watch over
her; she drifted off into troubled
slumber.
Then something pulled her sharply
back to waking. Some instinct or
was it the old house calling herr
told her that she must rouse herself.
She sat up in bed, startled. 1t was
dawn, and the room was foggy with
the acrid smoke of burning wood,
though the window was wide open.
She put out her hand mechanically
toturn on the bedside lamp, but to her
surprise it did not light. She could see
fairly clearly. though, and she noticed
that Timothy's bed was still empty.

Sheila jumped out of bed and ran
to the window. She leaned out and
looked down and then up: There was
long, narrow balcony above her;
from the window directly overhead
smoke was pouring out in thin cloud.
Something clutched at her heart -
Nadya's room - and only they two
in all the building; the servants rooms
we're in the other wing.
Sheila caught up her dressing gown
and was running up the stairs even as
these thoughts raced through her
head. She reached the door of Nadya's
apartment and tried it, then shook it
with violence, but the door was I'M
yielding. She pressed the bell and
pounded savagely. No reply, She

She hardly knew what happened
afterwards, there was so much con-
fusion. Someone had thrown blanket
around her and she had been dragged
into the concierge's room. She was
vaguely aware Of number of people,
and somehow she knew that Nadya
had been taken away in an ambulance.
Then Timothy had helped carry

Because if she'd died. l would have
been to blame. The house did it for
me-"
Timothy came and sat beside her.
What do you mean - the house
did it'?" he asked, in the humoring
tone one uses to sick child.
'It's just - something the house
said. 1t doesn't matter" she added
quickly. Her brain was clearing, and
she was suddenly sure that not even
Timothy would understand, so it was
no use explaining.
"Are you sure you're all right?" de-
manded Timothy, anxiously. He
plainly thought her slightly delirious.
II was just wondering how it all
started" said Sheila, evasively.
"A short circuit. Electricity badly
put into the old woodwork"

asked Sheila.
= "The rooms are pretty well chopped
up" replied Timothy, abruptly.
"Uninhabitable?" Sheila couldn't
help asking.
For the present." said Timothy
briefly, and got up to light cigarette.

He came instantly. and knelt down
by her sofa. "Sheila - haven't any
words. To think of your risking your
life ="
She cut him short. 1T wasn't very
dramatic, though, after all, was it?
Hardly any fire - no particular dan
ger - just lot of firemen breaking
up old panelling."
IF she'd been left much longer,
you know, she probably would have

Sheila took the scrawled paper Ian

added with faint smile.
"Sheila" said Timothy, and put his
arms around her.
And suddenly Sheila was comforted
- not so much by Timothy's action,
as by the power of her own words,
for she knew that what she had just
said was true, and that therein lay her
strength and her hope of happiness.

sized the whiteness of her skin, the
smooth black hair; and the darkness
of those long, slightly-tilted eyes.
Sheila felt like a shy young girl
offering an inopportune nosegay.
II thought you might enjoy these
roses" she began, lamely. "A friend
of mine sent me such lot that hope
you will share them with me, and let
me tell you the pleasure I've had from
your singing"
Nadya gathered the roses into her
arms, her eyes on Sheila's face. "You
bring me these - from your own kind
heart?" she said slowly.
Sheila was little embarrassed. 1t
sounded rather dramatic. II thought
you might like them." she repeated.
Come in - please" said Nadya,
opening the door wide.
Sheila had not meant to stop, but it
seemed ungracious to refuse. She
stepped into small panelled room,
sparsely furnished, with long divan
at one end, and some odd, modern
paintings on the walls.

Mind? think it very beautiful"
said Sheila, earnestly. But very

There is a kind of sorrow in all

sonally. perhaps it is that no beauty
is lasting. and we weep for it even
while we see or hear it,"

Sheila. impetuously. Think what has
come down to us through the ages -

music -"
Nadya smiled, and suddenly, as she
smiled, she looked young and gay.
''We are being so serious" she said,
before we have talked two minutes.
1t is the roses. The scent always gives
me the nostalgia. and your kindness in
bringing them has touched me-"
Sheila rose few minutes later.
Good bye, Madame" she said.
"You must come and see me one day"
'You are very good to ask me-"
said Nadya. 81 shall not forget what
you have DONE"
Sheila had curious feeling that she
had no intention of following up the
acquaintance, and felt a little re-
buffed. She came slowly downstairs,
and saw Timothy standing at the foot.
Her heart missed beat as she saw
his face.

particular consciousness of unhappi-
ness; there was only feeling of ex-
treme detachment from everything in
life.

to steady herself, and it closed on the
edge of the firm, cool marble of the
low mantel. That was steady, and
