 Alfredo paused at their table and Tim assured him that everything was as 1t should be. Toby's heart echoed the words. Oh, yes, indeed Everything was as it should be. Everything in the whole world
 It was not until they were on their way home that anything hap pened to change her mood. Then 1t came very suddenly.
 Tim said, By the way, won't be seeing you for 8 day or so. Friend of mine has asked me to drive down to Maryland with him. He's got a place there he's been wanting me to sec"
 "OhW It was foolish little ex- clamation. Toby went on quickly, hoping Tim had not noticed it. You're going"
 Well, I can't very well get out of 1t. You see, he's asked me a couple of times before. And thought the trip might be good for me. I've been sticking around town pretty close lately"
 "Yes," Toby agreed. "I'm sure 1t will be good for you. What sort of place is 1t, Tim-where you're go- ing?"
 Down on the Eastern Shore. Just an old house that has been in this fellows family for years and years. Near some little town-I forget the name of it. He's got some horses there, too. May get to do some riding"
 That will be fine" Toby said it as much to convince herself as Tim. How long will you be gone"
 "Oh, just a few days" He looked down at her, smiling. Think you'll miss me2"

 It ended with both of them treat ing if as n joke, which made 1t easier for Toby. It was so much better not to be serious, not to show Tow she really felt. At the en- trance of the apartment she asked, When did you say you were leav- ing, Tim?"
 He hadn't said, but now he told her, Early in the morning. l won't call you because you'll be asleep?"
 Then I won't see you again?"
 Not for few days. I'll give you 6 ring as soon as get back"
 She put hand on his arm. "Oh, Tim, I will miss you!"
 And I'll miss you, Gorgeous. But it's only few days. Now I'd better be getting along. Got to get up early, you know"
 "Tim, take care of yourself"
 He laughed. "Of course I will"
 But something might happen" Her face was serious. "YouH be

CHAPTER XIX
 Toby fought back the hateful. the outrageous thought. There was no reason, she told herself, to connect Carol Marsh with Tim's sudden change of mood Why, he scarcely knew Carol. He'd made that plain when Toby had spoken of her long before. Why should she imagine now that 1t was because Tim had seen Carol and her friends that he was in such a hurry to leave the couldn't be true
 She waited silently while I'm got into his coat. Silently she went ahead of him out to the street. It had been raining and there were little puddles on the sidewalk. The cold, damp air struck her cheeks; it was refreshing.
 Listen, Gorgeous" Tim was beside her, smiling down at her How'd you like to go to Alfredo's you know, where we went the first night we had dinner together2 I'd like some place that isn't as big as a circus tent. Where can have you to myself. I don't want every man in sight staring at You--"

 The idea of Tim being drawn into a fight because of her was horrify- ing to Toby, but with 1t came a surge of relief. It hadn't been be- cause of Carol Marsh that Tim wanted to leave the Seville Club! Carol hadn't had anything to do with 1t. It was because of Toby eherself- Tim was SO de- voted to her, wanted her to him belf," he said.
 Ehe raised shining eyes. "I didn't know anyone was staring at me" vshe said, but, oh, Tim, I'm glad we came away"
 Som I. Now, how about AL krcdos?"
 Lets go there. I'd rather go there than any place I know" So they went to Alfredo's, and, sitting at one of the softly lighted tables, dancing to the same music they ha&k danced to before, Toby Melt aAzAst the magic of that earlier e2s Ak.

 Toby said little. It was enough o look up and see Tim beside her, ko catch his smile and smile back It him. She thought he locked e8- jecially handsome tonight. Though, of course, Tim was always hand some. She listened 10 everything he said and made suitable answers, but when he was not speaking she | seemed to be in a world apartc-a

 Listen, Gorgeous, I'm going to be all rightI Now you run along and get your beauty sleep and stop worrying about me. Will you do that?"
 "Yes, If you'll promise"
 "All right. I'll promise you I won't be in any accidents. Does that sat- isfy you2"
 He took her in his arms then and kissed her, and for @ moment she clung to him. Toby said, "Oh, Tim" and then smiled brightly, determinedly. Its all right. I know nothing's going to happen. I know you'll come back-soon."
 That's the girl. Good night, Gorgeous"
 Good night. Tim"
 After all, it was only for a few days. Toby reminded herself of this several times the following day. She told herself she had been going out too much anyhow, and @ rest would be good for her. Besides, there were things that she could do-sewing and mending and the reading she'd been intending to get at and hadn't.
 But when she started task she soon found herself doing something else. She was restless, unable to settle down to anything. It was surely perverse fate that for the first time in weeks she had very little work. She didn't feet like going out and calling at studios where she wasn't known. She had list from the Models League and there were several on 1t that she hadn't visited, but she hated to be away from the apartment. She thought possibly some word might come from Tim.
 He hadn't said anything about calling her over long distance, but still Toby thought he might. Not that there was any reason for it. Just to assure her that he was all right and would be home soon. Har- riet's fiance, Clyde Sabin, often called her when he was out of town.
 Part of the time Toby argued with herself she was sure to hear from Tim. At other times she made excuses for him. Why should he write or call when he was only to be gone a few days? He hadn't been definite about 1t. She didn't know if "a few days" meant two or three or even four. Surely 1t couldn't be more than thatl
 The first day dragged to 8 close and the second went even more slowly. Harriet, coming in late in the afternoon, saw Toby curled up on the davenport, a discarded magazine at her feet.
 Harriet knew that Tim was away, though Toby hadn't told her where he'd gone. She thought Harriet might be inclined to criticize if she knew. Harriet seemed to think Tim should have job.
 "Hcllo," Harriet said, taking off her hat and tossing 1t on 0 chair. "IhL iiC"I
 Nothing"
 Anyone call me while I was away?"
 No"
 Well" said Harriet. i've got news for you. I stopped in at the League office to get that check they've been holding for me"
 Toby wasn't much interested, but she waited fer Harriet to go on. "Well-?"
 Well, I thought you might like to know that you won't have to worry about your friend, Carol Marsh, for while. Betty Turn bull was there, talking to Sally and I heard her say that Carols out of town. She's gone to @ house party in Maryland"

Some time back a gentle
man by the name of Louis B.
Anderson used to be alder
man of the second ward.
Everyone said or thought that
Louis made money in politics.
When your friends see you
making money or think you
are making money there is a
little thing called jealousy
that arises, and along with
t h a t political ambitions of

pot of gold: L. K. Williams,

First of all, Dawson wanted
to be committeeman, and the
rest of the combination
agreed to kick King out.
King went out crying to Ker-

political ride after beating
the combination. To make a
long story short. Dawson was
spanked twice by King for the
committeemanship.

Best Fall Since Crash

Elected in many major lines.
2. STEEL: Steel activity last month
was the highest for any August in
predicted by most BUSINESS obser-
vers failed to materialie. In fact, OPP
erations worked up against the usual
trend during August. Factors in steel
Improvement are the revival in the
heavy industries, boom activity at au
tomobile plants and new demand
from miscellaneous sources. Blowing
in of new steel furnaces at this stage
of the cycle means that all industries
are now actively joining in the re-
covery.
3. BUILDING: Currently, home
building is fifty per cent above a
year ago, while industrial construc-
ton is up 100 per cent. Yet the in
dustry is operating at only 40 per
cent of the 1926-29 average. In good
times over half our present jobless
would normally be employed in the
private building trades. Hence, gains
in building permits mean that we are
attacking our unemployment problem
at the core and are aiding activity in
i
boom in real estate and construction
during the next few years.
A. RAILROADS: Carloadings are
currently running Is to 20 per cent
above a year ago but are still under
the 1881 level. So far the railroads
have been laggards in this recovery
period. The real freight loads, how
ever, come from those heavy indus
tries, such as building and mining,
which are just now beginning to get
in step. Freight gains, in turn, mean
new orders for railway equipment-a
vast industry in itself. Machine tool
orders, which are almost back to the
1929 level, forecast further recovery
in these capital goods lines.
S. RETAIL TRADE: The new re-
covery peak for consumer sales reach
ed during the summer is the most
bullish news of all. Mounting retail
sales are felt through all lines and
in all communities. In relation to the
seasons unusually good demand, the
nations inventories of finished goods
| are at the lowest point in years. This
| means that more raw materials and
more workers will be necessary dur
ing the fall to keep pace with con-
| sumner demand. For instance, re-
enlistment of depleted stocks has al
! ready boosted textile activity to the
highest level since 1890.
Five QuestiOn-Marks.
There are, however, several ques-
| tion-marks in the outlook. First, and
| of most immediate Importance, is the
drought. Some sections have been hit
very hard. Farm experts are not yet
| certain that the gains in farm income
in non-drought areas will offset crop
| failures in burned-out regions. An
other fly in the ointment is our con-
| stantly growing Federal deficit. We
| cannot be out of the woods until our
| government is balancing it's budget.
Third, the campaign may also cause
some unsettlement before the election
| is over, but it will not alter the basic
| upward trend.
| Then there is fear that the strug-
| gle between the Fascists and Com
| munists in Spain may touch off a

the data so far collected, members of
the commission are convinced that
one of the biggest factors in the high
cost of gasoline is the cost of trans
portation and handling, Barker said.
Accordingly, the commission is going
to try to work out a plan that will
bring about lower transportation
rates and fewer handling charges
For the time being we are trying
to learn if the establishment of a
State-owned or controlled bulk ter
minal for the storage of gasoline in
Wilmington, Morehead City or Fay
etteville would help bring about low
er prices or reduced freight rates."
Barker said. 1--WE have not vet finish
ed our study of this question-in fact
we are just starting it. But there are
several things to indicate that the es-
adjustment of such a bulk terminal
might be of real assistance, especially
II we could get a new combination
rail- and water transportation rate es-
tablished by the railroads either thro-
ugh Morehead City or Wilmington.
we are also going to give much
study to the present State laws gov
erning the sale and transportation of
gasoline with view to undermining
them. We already think that the in
spection of gasoline and of filling sta
tions needs to be frightened up, also
the specifications for gasoline and the
testing of it in the State laboratories.
We are also going to make study of
the methods of handling and distri-
buting the 100000 gallons of gas
oline bought and used by the State
each year. Present indications are
that not a close enough check is kept
