Imperial Valley fishermen are
finding the boats that iaave the
docks at 600 a. m. much more
satisfactory than the earlier two
O'Clock vessels. There are several
reasons for this choice of time.
Sportsmen who are compelled to
drive mora than a hundred miles
find practically no time 70 obtain
needed rest before embarking on
the early boats. Furthermore, the
2 o'clock boats must Of necessity
be the scouts 0. the fishing fleet.
Their shippers are obliged TO cruise
about and find the fish In many
instances, by the time the schools
are located it is time to return
to port, for the earlier boats must
return earlier in the afternoon.
On the other hand the vessels
that leave the dock at o'clock are
able tC take advantage Of the
scouting activities Of the earlier
boats. If the latter have succeed
ed in locating the fish, the former
can heaVe-to and commence haul
ing them in. Then as a climax,
when the fishing gets good in the
afternoon, as il frequently does,
the O'Clock sp0rtsmen dc not have
to leave the fishing grounds just
when the sport is becoming in

She tried to think back as she lay on her
bed. George had given up pleading with
her to let him in, and had gone off down.
stairs. He would probably be fixing himself
a highball, or perhaps thinking about that
toossi0s.
Mary tried to remember when it had begun,
what had begun it, but the first signs, if
they were signs, seemed so inane, 50 trivial.
that it was stupid to allot them significance.
Still, she thought, must. If I'm to retain
my sanity. I've got to get to the bottom
of this.
There was that time about a year ago,
when she asked him one evening how things
had gone at the office and he had brushed
the question aside like an annoying, per-
sistent insect. Lets not talk about the
Office Il want to forget all that when I'm
with you" he had said. And she had thought.
he's right, he must get bored enough with it
during the eight hours every day.
She hadn't asked him about his affairs
again. Now she wondered if she had been
right. Had he merely not wanted to discuss
it with her that one night? Had he thought,
because she followed his suggestion, that
she wasn't interested in what he was doing?
The trouble soon became rooted - there
was no avoiding it in the money situation.

''You make me want to cry when you say
things like that" she answered. I'VE do love
each other, don't we::"
II love you" he whispered as she lay her
head against his shoulder. II know that"
He did, too. There could be no doubt
about it. Marriage was 50 wonderful. George

with such shining eyes that Edith could not
bring herself to utter the ffippancy that
rose to her lips. Instead she gazed a moment
at her own ringless restless fingers. finally
looked up and smiled.
Find me another George" she laughed.
''You keep trying to sell me on marriage,
when all you're doing really is selling me on
George"
And yet. two short years of marriage had
brought them to the scene which left her
crying alone in her room, her door locked
against the person she loved better than her
life George could lock his mind against her -
all she could do was to lock her door and
cry in futile bewilderment. What had hap
pened? How had they arrived at his impasse?
When had it started? What had started it?
Evening star., 1936-11-15

Of all the problems Mary had anticipated in
marriage, that had seemed least likely to
arise. While George was not wealthy. he
earned more than comfortable salary with
we'll established firm. He had lavished so
many gifts on her during the first year of their
marriage, it did not seem possible that the
second should find him giving her scarcely
enough for necessities. Yet that was exactly
what had happened.
At the start they had discussed joint
checking account, but Mary had said: Let's
not begin that. I've worked for lot of men
whose wives drew on their accounts, and
never saw one yet that wasn't off balance the
whole time"
And George had answered, "Just as you
say" Then he grinned. ''Of course. may
get so stingy you'll have to beg me for money"
At first, Mary had felt little strange
about taking money from him for her personal
needs. For seven years she had worked for
every penny she possessed. She laughed once:
"You make me feel immoral. What do do for
you to earn this money!"
He wouldn't joke about that. by help

each week? What was happening to her, to her
happiness? Was this what marriage did to you?
She alternated between moods of acute
depression, in which she tried to turn the
spotlight of reason upon her own emotions,
to active resentment. Mary remembered one
night about four months ago, when George
had come upon her mending one of her slips.
She had repaired her dresses thousand
times before, and she did it 50 well that no
one could ever guess they were not new. but
even when she had been hardest put to clothe
herself her one extravaganza had been pretty,
new lingerie. But that night, when George
saw what she was doing and let it pass with
out comment, she was so furious as he stood
before her waiting for her to put the finishing
touches on his black tie that she turned her
cheek when he stopped to kiss her, as he
always did.
He said, "Is anything wrong?" She stood
and looked him full in the face for a moment,
but she felt her expression betrayed her, and

Catoctin Is picturesque little town.
At first glance it seems to consist
mainly Of tiny log and stone cabins,
every one beautifully whitewashed,
trimmed green around the windows
and surrounded by white picket
fences. A sign tells you that Catoctin
Furnace was important for making
iron during the Revolution. If you
slow down bit you can see the an
cient furnace to your left, on the
other side Of the road from the sign.
WHILE passing Hunting Greek, to
the left of the road, you get a
closeup of the nearby mountains
/ The road henceforth continues along
a narrow ridge. Just before you reach
Emmitsburg you see a group of state
ly gray stone buildings. A sign in
forms you that these are part of
Mount st. Mary's College.
Follow straight through Emmits-
burg. Just outside the town you cross
the Pennsylvania State line. Watch
out for soft road shoulders here. And
slow up. Gettysburg is at hand before
| you're quite ready for it. Glance at
your speedometer and it ought to read
7S miles, or thereabouts. Which comes
as surprise to most Washingtonians
They rather expect the battlefield to
be almost 100 miles away.
Guides are here in abundance. If
you're historically minded. But it's
loads of fun to simply follow the near
est road in the park and let the
| famous monuments, museums, statues,
and graves show up as they may. Get
a guide book by all means. With its
help, ten year old can find his way
about.
But If you're not equipped with In
structional material of any sort, here
are few friendly suggestions: Ride
round and round the park, which has
numerous sharp curves, and stop at
some of the numerous points where
delicious spring water is abundant.
Visit the Soldiers National Cemetery
which covers II acres of ground on
the highest point on Cemetery Hill.
No fairer resting place for the nations
heroes could be conceived. Here lie
the bodies of 1855 slain, of which 97s
are unknown.
Be sure to visit the soldiers monu-

Lincoln made his memorial address
This Is so feet high, the base a mas
sive pedestal with four allegorical fig
ures representing War, History, Peace
and Plenty, and surmounted by a CO.
lossal statue of marble representing
the Genius of Victory.
The best way to get a birds eye
view of the battlefield is to climb ur
Round Tower. Anybody can tell you
how to locate 1t. Once there, you can
feel the spirit Of the poem:
"On flames eternal camping ground
Their silent tombs are spread,
And glory guards with solemn round

and good-sized groves Of oak. Just
beyond Gaithersburg one large estate
is garnished with an old fashioned and
colorful border of sweet williams,
iris and hollyhock, against back
ground of thick green hedge.
Now you start to get the refreshing
slap Of the cool mountain air against
your cheeks and throughout the rest
of your journey as you ride the gently
rolling hills and round the roadway
bends you get an occasional glimpse
straight ahead Of the mountains them
selves.
IRON now on. too, the broad high
way becomes more and more hilly
since you're in the very shadows Of
the mountains. Clarksburg, friendly
looking town, is passed and pretty
soon you're driving through Hyatts-
town, nesting in the foothills.

The mouptain breeze becomes still more
inviting. You cross the Monocacy
River and learn bit more history; a
marker deSignates the site Of the Civil
War battle of Monocacy. On July 9,
1864, Gen. Jubal Early and an army
Of about $4,000 Confederate soldiers
advancing on Washington fought a
Union force of 5000 soldiers under
Gen. Lew Wallace. The battle was
important because it delayed Early's
march so that it had to be changed.
You pass the headquarters of Lee
and jackson on the way to Gettys-
burg. And now you're in Frederick,
county seat of Frederick County.
There's no hurry, so you have time
for half-hour tour of the city. On
West Patrick street Is the famous
Barbara Fritchie house, reconstructed
from the original residence, which
was torn down when the course of
Carroll Greek was shifted. This was
the scene of Whittier's stirring Civil
War poem. The house contains ar
ticles of historic interest, including
the flag which figures in Whittier's
poem.

ashore at the Alameda Airport, where
he got right chummy with the big

attempts were made to take him away
from the big boat, he protested vigor-

him from the China Clipper, the

Clipper made a quick luncheon on

combat with the shop air compressor.
Three mechanics and a helper were

Inspector de Ham inspected Clipper

The three weeks required for repairs
passed quickly and, after test hops
