would find that out. very painfully,
If you married Christian. I'm SO
glad, Gay dear, you had the cour-
age to break off that affair. We
all felt it would be a frightful mis-
take for, you." She patted the
girls hand, which lay listlessly
along the chairarm.
It was the first time the subject
of Gays broken engagement had
come up between the two women.
Perhaps it never would have, but
for the intimacy of being alone to-
gether for the night, and the cozy
cheer OF the room curtained against
the stormy world outside.
But Gay had OWNED the strong,
though unexpressed appreciation of
the Wilson's and the Vances when
she had returned Christians ring
and other gifts, and quietly re-
sumed her place at the club, as
check girl.
You're not sorry?" Marian ex-
tended a slender foot in a golden
mule, toward the fire.
Gay shook her head.
Then, my dear, you're giving a
brilliant imitation of a broken
hearted young person" Marian
laughed a little, but Gay caught
the undertone, of seriousness, and
lifting her eyes, saw that her, hos
tess was looking at her intently.
Gay shrugged. II haven't given
Christian thought-Yes, I have"
she corrected herself with char
acteriStic honesty. Hes really a
splendid man, and hope he'll be
happy, and maybe meet his fate
on that trip around the world

truly deserves to be loved. Chris

Hell meet Grace Larrimore, in

wouldn't be the least bit surprised
if I heard that Japanese wedding
bells will ring for them-or what
ever they do over there to cele-
brate a marriage. I believe they'd
make a go Of marriage. They're
perfectly suited to each other in
ever so many ways: wealth, family,

Gay nodded absently, her eyes

short pause. Charlotte and

Marian's sympathy and sweet
ness brought unexpected tears 10
the dark-circled blue eyes.
It's just that I'm perfect fool

CHAPTER 81
THEY COULDN'T be married
for while, Wayne said. He was
practically penniless. Gay was
making a wild mistake to pick on
him for husband-but if she in
sisted!
They would have to wait for six
months, anyway perhaps year,
until something lnaterialized. He'd
been working night and day, and
things were Strengthening around.
The failure of the motor at a low
altitude had given him a clue to
what was wrong, and he was con-
WINGED that he was on the right
track at last.

enough to kiss her again. my

Gay cried, elatedly, "Wayne, dar-

good as fixed. Why, can make

"Wait minute" Wayne's face
was puzzled. What on earth are

take my motor? Have you so lit

use your influence ?"
"Oh no, Wayne dearest! Please
listen"
But he went on, his hard voice
beating down her Interruptions.
Didn't I tell you, only a moment
ago, that I won't have any woman
running things for me? Wasn't it
enough to have Grace forcing her
self into my business affairs, till
she drove me crazy? Must you do

the stupid error she'd made, offer

She felt half sick with fright,
now staring helples sly into
Wayne's taut face. his narrowed
eyes. "Oh, darling! Don't look at
me like that! + love you so-and
I only wanted to help!"
He stormed, Il don't want, or
need, any help from women!"
Gay understood all too clearly
his hurt pride, his fury at her in
reference. The failure and crash
of the motor, the newspaper pub
licity and criticism, had made him
raw and sensitive. He'd needed
utter faith, utter belief, and she'd
failed him! She could only look
at him mutely, the picture of guilt,
with her flushed cheeks and ouiv-
ering lips.
A new expression came over
Wayne's face.
"You can make Tim finance me"
he repeated slowly. "How come ?"
His eyes, even as Gay watched
in nightmare of fear, filled with
a dawning horror of ugly suspicion
why, in heavens name, should
Tim Keenan, be willing to do such
a thing for you? Did he promise
to pay you off. when he got mar
ried?"
In her fright, Gay couldn't find
words to explain clearly. She cried,
1T was before he went abroad!
We weren't serious-we started out
to make Eleanor jealous. It
didn't mean anything to me,
swear, Wayne! But just-he's fond
of me, you know. And grateful

"Stop talking a minute. Tell me

That's enough explaining! Don't

He had grabbed up his hat and

Gays frantically OBTAINING fingers
from his arm. He said, "Go0d

Through for good this time!"
AS the door crashed shut behind
him, Gay knew that curtain had
dropped down, very definitely, be-
tween her and Wayne. That chap
ter of her life was closed forever.
Marian Wilson and Gay, in pa
jamas, sat gazing into the glow

sitting room. The doctor had been
called to Chicago in consultation,
and Gay was staying overnight.

Palestine Appeal
 Assists Many Jews
Report Shows Hebrews of All Lands Aided By Immi-
 gratiOn-POIand Contributes Largest Ratio

offering a haven to Jews in all lands of oppression, Palestine is easing the strain in those countries from which Jews are enabled to emigrate. That represents a permanent and con- structive solution of the Jewish problem and relief in the deepest sense of the word. Fundamentally, that is the purpose served by the United Palestine Appeal, which is asking American Jewry for $3,500,- 900 during 1886 so that additional tens of thousands of Jews, whether from Germany or Poland, may be permanently relieved of distress and despair. By helping Palestine we are, in turn, helping Jews in all lands"
 Of the 6l ,541 Jews who came into Palestine in 1885, the report shows, the largest number were from Po- land, which sent 27,29l Jews, 7,747 came from Germany. The latter figure does not include two other groups of German Jews; several thousand who came in as tourists but whose permanent stay will be legalized, and Jews who lied from Germany but came to Palestine from other European countries.
 Jewish immigration from Ru- mania was 3,596. Other countries and their total of Jewish emigrants to Palestine are: Greece, 2,l22: Lithuania, 1867: United States, l. 638; Yemen (Arabia) 1,425; Czecho- slovakia, 1897; Latvia, 1,042; France, 1921; Austria, 961; Turkey, 764. The balance was from other countries.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-04-24

D. ing 1895, the Jews of almost two score countries were able to find homes in Palestine, thus re- lieving the pressure of the Jewish problem in those lands and simul- taneausly enabling 6l,54l homeless Jews to find permanent homes, &C., cording to a statistical report issued by the United Palestine Appeal, which seeks $3,500,000 during 1936 for the settlement in Palestine of a maximum number of the Jews of Germany, Poland and other lands.
 A statement attached to the re- port by the officers of the United Palestine Appeal says:
 During 1936 61,541 Jews were ab- sorbed in Palestine. That immigra- ton was composed of Jews from vir- tually all lands. It is sometimes er- roneously believed that the funds raised by the United Palestine Ap- peal have their effect only in Pales- tine, where immigrants are colonized and given land and every other form of help. The truth is that by

TOWN COMMITTEE
 HONORS KILDUFF
Associates Hold Banquet for Newly Appointed
 Sheriff

City Sheriff John J. Kilduh, who was recently appointed to his pres- ent post by Mayor Frank Hayes, was rendered testimonial banquet last night at the Court hotel on Leavenworth street by members of the democratic town committee. He was presented with travelling bag as a token of the esteem in which he is held.
 Corporation Counsel Charles g.. O'Connor and Claims Attorney Ed- ward J. McDonald divided the du- ties of toastmaster between them during the evening. Town Chair man John H. Crary, Mayor Hayes and other leaders of the party wished City Sheriff Kilduff the best of success in his new post.
 The banquet was a surprise affair on Sheriff Kilduh who did not know the purpose of the gathering until 1t got underway. Remarks of At-- torneys O'Connor and Mcdonald kept the gathering in good humor during the evening but the high spot was reached when surprise package was presented to Chair man Crary. It contained a piece of limburger cheese and 8. card stat- ing that the gift was the compli- ments of the new g.o.p. town chair man, Attorney J. Warren Upson. Attorney Upson disclaimed any re- sponsibility for the gift and Chair man Crary said that he was pretty sure of the identity of the jokester within the town committee he showed his feelings 50 strongly by giving such 8 token.
