Are you really as happy as you

She peeked at herself in the mirror

shining, that looked back at her.

Antoine, lived the year round in his
tiny log chapel. and be married to her
hard and fast. Life to follow was too
sweet in prospect to be fully thought
of.
The stars wheeled, and he could
feel Smoke Eyes moving restlessly at
his feet. He reached out a hand and
rubbed her ears and she licked the
hand gently.
Mon -" he started to say, then
changed his words. Good GIRL" he
said, good girl" He could no longer
say my heart"
At the cabin he told the girl about
his plans and she wept, coming Of her
own will to lay her face against his
breast. and in two days they were
away again for the Sakwasew. 1t was
strange, sweet wedding in the dusk of
the cold chapel, and the girls face was
heavenly fair to Thebau.
Smoke Eyes sat gravely on the great
bush of her tail between the benches
and watched with intelligent blue eyes.
and there was something in her wolf
face that would have hurt Thebau
had he had eyes for anything but the
girl kneeling beside him on the rough
floor. 1t was beWilderment and sort
of savage torture, pinched-in hold
ing of all her quivering muscles.
The next day they all went back to
the cabin on the trap line and Thebau
was the happiest man in the world.
The white-skinned girl looked at him
with such wonder and dawning wor-
ship that he could not believe the
fortune which had befallen him. Only
Smoke Eyes did not share in the gen.
eral Joy that permeated the cabin.
She lay in a corner with her muzzle
on her paws and watched with look
in her eyes that was slowly turning
them from dogs to VOLTS - cold.
cruel and suspicious. She saw Thebau
stand beside this strange creature with
his great hands on its shoulders, saw
him lay his face against its pale gold
head, saw him kiss. with reverence
and tenderness, its upheld lips.
Once, not being able to bear these
things, she rose swiftly and thrust her
huge body between them, fawnlng
against her masters thigh, but The
bau pushed her aside. Gently to be
sure, but definitely: The dog went
back to her corner, but after that her
eyes were cold pin-points fixed on the
woman.
For three days Thebau stayed at
the cabin, lost in the wonder of his
love. Then he must 60 out along his
lines, for man must work to eat, and
amarried man must work much harder.
So he kissed his wife, fervently and
long and made ready to depart. sack

Marry the Girl" a rollicking
farce-comedy into which Warner
Bros. have put wealth Of funny
players, is the current attraction
at the Metropolitan Theater.
Rarely does any movie have a
cast including such top-rankers as
Frank McHugh. Hugh Herbert,
Mary Boland, MiScha Auer, Alan
Mowbray, Allen Jenkins, Carol
Hughes, DIN Rowland, Teddy
Hart, Hugh O'Connell, Charles
Judeis and Louise Stanley.
These, plus a director who
specializes in comedy-William
Mccain, whose most recent work
was "Penrod and Sam"-made the
most of the opportunities afforded
by a very witty screen play
adapted by Sig Herzig, Pat c.
Flick and Tom Reed from a novel
by Edward Hope.
The tale begins In the offices
of a big newspaper syndicate "a
setting brand new to the screen) ,
progresses by q balmy pSychiatriSt
and includes more or less "teched
in the haid" writer's, cartooniSts,
editors, authors and the like, to
say nothing Of a couple Of gang
sters. The possibilities are obvious.

APPLE FETE
BY CARROLL PEEKE

WINCHESTER, Va, May 7.
Thousands of persons packed this
historic city in Shenandoah Valley
today for the opening Of the 14th
annual apple blossom festival.
There we're clearing skies today
after heavy rain yesterday, and
a promise Of perfect weather for
the events On the two days pro-

Blossoms on the IL million apple
trees in the Valley were at their
fullest bloom, and escaped damage
in yesterdays storm. Thousands
of early arrivals took motor tours
through the orchards perfumed
with the sweet aroma of the
blooms and a gorgeous spectacle
with the blending of the pink and
white blossoms against the spring
green.
City in Gala Mood
The city itself is in gala mood,
expecting one of the biggest
crowds in the history of the fes-
tival. There will be at least 49,
900 persons packed in the Handley
High School Stadium this after
noon when Queen Shenandoah
XIV receives her crown and scep-
ter, and perhaps twice that num-
Der tomorrow when the colorful
parade, 1.-THE Trail of the Pink
Petals" is held, eliminating the
event.
The festival opened this morning
with band concerts in the square
in front of the court house, erected
in 1910, and thousands of persons
gathered to hear the music. Over
head, planes from the Winchester
airport went through maneuvers
in rehearsal for the aerial circus to
be held later in the day.
Along the streets, which are gay
with pink, green and white decor
atoms and hundreds of colored
electric lights, scores of conces-
Sions have been set up, and the air
was filled with the voices Of ven
