Forecasts of a court bill showdown
in 10 days or two weeks came today
from some Senators on both sides.
Opposition leaders, declaring they
had "A certain votes and half dozen

Court justice each year If members

The opposition strategists predicted
approval of motion to send the bill
back to the Judiciary Committee,
which would sidetrack it at least for
the remainder of this session. The mo-
ton probably will be made as soon as
they have finished their case.
Publicly, the lineup still was 40

80 for it. Several of the remaining II,
however, were committed privately one

Must She Wear His
SKIS" Discarded Ring?

y EAR Mrs. Post: l am really
worried about how 1 am going
to handle situation which I feel
coming on. l mean that I am en-
gagged to a man who was married,
and when he became divorced, his
wife gave him back both engage
ment and wedding ring. / believe
from something he has said to me
that he expects to give me this
same engagement ring. / don't be-
lieve it possible that he would con-
slider giving me the wedding ring
although / don't know definitely, but
Wen cross that bridge later. The
complicating point is the fact that
hi first wife used to live here and
went with the same people / do
now, and they would of course rec
ognize either or both of these rings.
1t is beside the question, but 1 want
to make clear that had nothing to
do with the divorce; and marrying
him was far from my mind until
just recently. But how can 1 make
it plain to him that must not be ex-
pected to wear her rings?
Answer: l can't imagine that he
would expect you to wear stone
that was hers without having it re-
set 81 as to be unacceptable. If
you have reason to suspect that he
intends giving you this same ring,
tell him frankly-and now-that il
would make you very unhappy to
wear anything so closely associated
with someone else. AS to the we'd
ding ring, he would certainly buy
you new one.

drove in upon the town like the pelt
of sleet storm. The night was
electric with sparks.
Get to the lake!" shouted Ham,
mond. "The towns done for!"
He was among the last to go. Up
on the hill, the cottage which he
had built for Kay was a mass of
crawling flame. Farther on, Bruce

In was red with destruction.
Thus he watched his past, its
hopes, its dreams, it's agonizing dis
appointments, die to the touch OF an
an-consuming torch. At last, he
turned away, gaunt from physical
and mental pain, and followed the
other refugees down to the lake.
All that night the airplanes roared
above Sapphire lake - the ships
which had left with the beginning
of the fire, to seek pumps and tanks
and dynamite, the ships summoned
by Sergeant Terry, the ships of the
forestry division. They drummed
and zoomed and snarled, like the air
force of some hidden army, working
high in the clouds, where no one
might see.
Smoke had cut off all vision, save
that of nearby objects. The wind
had lessened it's intensity somewhat

The discovery of a dedication tab.

" all proves that this line of ancient
Notifications was built in less than
five years, observes writer in
Pearson's London Weekly. The wall,
running from Wallsend, at the
mouth of the River Tyne, to Brown
ees on the River Solway, was built
by the Romans, under the Emperor
Hadrian, as means of protecting
Roman Britain from invasion by
the barbarian clans of the north.
The work was under the control
of Platorius Nepos, governor of
Britain, and the tablet, dedicated
to him, mentions that he was occu-
pied with the construction from A.
D. 122 to 126. The building plans
were constantly changed while the
work was in progress.

and brought with its abatement only
greater suffering to these refugees,
dependent upon the lake for their
lives.
Deep in the broad waters, the life
RATS, huge affairs each capable
O. bearing hundred persons, float
ed with their clusters of human
freight, lying fiat on the soggy logs
and covered by equally soggy blan-
ketS. There was no air as such,
save the thin layer which lay close
to the water. Otherwise, all was
fetid death; oxygen had been al
most eliminated. Resin and wood
fumes cut the nostrils; heat and
smoke poison loaded the atmosphere
to point of suffocation. The per-
son who would escape death or
smoke sickness must lie with nos
trils only inches from the lake; an
attempt to breathe for long the poi
sonous air above meant fatality.
No one slept. No one even thought
OF it. The threat of death by fame
or suffocation had eradicated even
the need of it; sleep is a necessity
of peace; insomnia a blessing in
time of danger.
Jack Hammond was not on a raft.
He lay on a shallow bar, his eyes
closed, his head barely above wa
ter. All about him were evidences
of life; here a dripping hand
emerged to wipe at a Steaming face,
there a man rolled uncomfortably,
squirting water as he cooled his hot
mouth.
All those who had labored late in
the town were here; groans attested
to the pain of miners who, strug-
Cling too long, had rushed for the
lake with their clothing af1ame
Now, with the touch of water ag-
gravating the torture of their burns,
they had no surcease. They could
only lie and suffer and wait. Here,
too, were the dogs; many, BUSH
wise, waiting philosophically. 9th
ers, impatient, broke at times from
the water, only to return whimper-
ing.
Daylight had come; it meant lit
tie in the way of visibility, save for
a few moments when the wind fresh
ened again, whipping away the
smoke long enough to permit a
feeting view of the surrounding
country. The town was gone, ex-
cept for smoldering log squares
where cabins had been. But over

Yet everything was not gone. The
shadows of the lake were splotched
with possessions, where hurrying
refugees had thrown them, hopeful
for rescue at a later time; tents,
bedding, pieces of homemade furni-
ture, tar-covered hams and bacon,
cans of desiccated food, blankets,
mattresses, even hunks and rustic
bedsteads and chinaware were scat
tered Unfortunately about in the
water to await sorting when danger
was gone. That time was yet dis
