BEGIN HERE TODAY

Martha Britain and Betty
Haynes begin 4 trip up the west
coast to demonstrate the new Arr
speed trailer. They pick up Gerry
Neal, handsome young hiteh-h'k,
err. Neal tells them he is to meet
friend, Jack Speddon, at the
Long Beach auto camp. Bot at
Long Beach, Neal disappears from
the trailer and Spcddon drives
away with Betty, failing to re-
turn.
Frantic, Martha calls police
Then she gets a wire, hours later
signed Betty" and advising that
Betty will meet her in San Fran
cisco at a designated hotel. Few
erishly, Martha starts out. trying
to trace Betty en- route. Return
ing to her trailer the second day'
she is startled to meet Neal. he
tells her that this thing may be
bigger" than she imagines.
She agrees 10 accompany Neal
Betty. Martha is troubled be-
cause she does not know whether
to trust Neal. Yet she likes him
more than she cares to admit.
They wire San Francisco and ind
that neither Betty nor Speddon
is registered at the designated ho-
tel. Neal persrades Martha to
spend the day in Del Monte. They
drive along the coast, then stop
to swim at n secluded part Of the
beach. Martha dives deep into
the breakers and in that moment
she knows that she is caught, fac.
irg death against the jagged
rocks of the cove.
NOW co ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER Y
She seemed to be plungmg III Il
sweeping arc-thcn suddenly she
felt something clutching her arm.
Her head broke the surface, sank
again, with that frm hand still
gripping her. Enthusiastically she
wondered If this could be the last
mad dclusion Of the drowning.
And then, miraculously, she felt
the sand beneath her feet.
STEADY hold steady -
II vas Meals voice. 1t was
Neal who grippcd her iierceIy
with one hand. his other Tending
them off from the wall of rock.
With all her remaining strength
Martha dug her bare feet into
the sand as wave rcccded. she
tried her best to make that last
struggle which would bring her
to a safe depth. Then everything
went black.
When she opened her eyes she
saw Gerry Meals anxious face be-
tween her and the bright blue
bowl of sky. Under her body the
sand felt deliciously warm ana
soft. ,
you're all right now Neal
was saying. "You tainted Just rs
we were getting in"
She started to raise her head,
but he demonstrated. Not yet.
Take it easy. I'm frightfuliy
sorry, Martha"

land girl should know better than
to go plunging into 4 surf IKE

"Ordinarily it would have been

happened in the last two days, so
much that was frightening and in
cxplicablc, that she owned the
feeling Of having lived years since
she and Betty had started so
blithely from San Diego.
And nOw--Shc knew il almost
beyond doubt-Shc was falling
in love with Gerry Neal. Failing
i'm love with a man she hardl"
knew, man she should be re-
garding with suspicion rather
than tenderness.
But there it was. Since first
she had been able to reason. Mar
tina had never lodged the truth
about herself. And the truth was
certainly this: either she was in
love with Neal, or she was pre-
cariously close to it. As she
danced in Gerry Meals arms she
remembered, curiously, something
she had said to Betty Hayes
not long before. They had been
reading in the newspaper Of 4
wife testifying for her husband
accused of murder and racketeer-
ing. 81 didn't know what he did
the wife had said. He'd never
tell me. But | loved him and
that was all that mattercd.' That
was the woman's testimony, and
Martha remembered saying, 1T
doesn't sound right to me. ! cant
imagine loving Il man You didn I
know any more about than that"
Well, it could happen. 1t was
happening now in hundreds OF
places all over the world. AT this
moment hundreds Of women were
realizing it could happen, just as
she was now. 1t gave her a queer,
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1937-04-03

fatalistic feeling to think that she
was one Of them.
Coming back from the beach
that afternoon she began to real.
izc il. Gerry Meals kiss was still
on her lips. and she had sat there,
remembering it. She had hurried
to the trailer to change for dim
ner. happy to be getting into her
blue gown and slippers, wanting
her hair to be right.
And now she and this man were
dancing together, without words,
content to let the music speak for
them, not caring that they were
Strangers in this gay ballroom and
could dance with no one else.
But ! mustn't let him see it,
Martha warned herself. "Ive got
to find Betty-l've got to know
what Gerry Neal it." There was
another warning which slipped
unwantcd into her brain. A warn
ing not to let herself in for any
thing. not to be- hurt. \ warning
so many women nave refused, ana
SO few have needed when the
time came.
Suddenly Neal looked down ut
her. you're very quiet, Martha
. / can call you Martha"
you've already done it once
before" she told him. "On the
beach this afternoon, after you
yankcd me ashore"
Neal laughed. 81 guess / was
too excited TO notice. Anyhow,
that proves il comes natural-and
not for effect He looked 1T her
oddly. But you remembered"

Loses Pants, But Captures
 Problem Bear

HELENA, Mont, July 24.-Brow- nie, the State Game Departments problem bear" has the peace of his kennel again, but Patrolman Larry Kane is without his pants.
 Three months old and with a longing to return to Yellowstone National Park, Brownie escaped from a pen in which he had been temporarily housed by the depart ment in Helena.
 Patrolman Kane, shaving in his home, looked out the window to see the north side of Brownie going south across his yard.
 He ran out, latner flying from his face, and made the mistake of grabbing the bear by the nape of his neck. The bear promptly turn ed in his loose skin and with his hind feet began clawing off the po- liceman's pants.
 Mrs. Kane finally arrived with a chain and collar and Brownie be- came docile, permitting Kane to harness him.
 The Game Department wasn't very glad to have Brownie return ed, Kane reported

KU KLUx KHAN
 TO BE REVIVED

ATLANTA, Ga, July 24-Impor- ial Wizard Hiram w. Evans, of the Ku Klux Klan, asserted the Com mittee for Industrial Organization is infested with Communists and the Klan will ride to wipe out Con- munism.
 Referring to the labor strike that has gripped the nation the past several months, Evans declared this industrial war differs from others in that it is being led by aliens who believe in organized might rather than organized laws"
 The Klan will not sit idly by and allow the C. I. O. to destroy our social order, nor shall c. I. O. flout law and promote social dis order without swift punishment.
 The Klan also views with alarm the American Federation of Labor's efforts to copy unwholesome and un-American c. I. O. activities" he said.

For treatment of an. army injury which has bothered her for more than a year, Miss Minnie Fields. who operates the Minnie Fields Home for Children out the highway, sailed for Seattle yesterday aboard the Baranof where she will enter the Marine Hospital.
 A large circle of friends were at the boat to see Miss Fields, who is a pioneer of this region, off for the south, among them being women who will take an active interest in handling the affairs of the Home while the founder is away. Mrs. May Jernberg will be in direct charge at the home as Matron for the present.
 Miss Fields is widely known here and for IT years was matron at the Federal jail While working there, she established the Home herself, supporting it largely out of her own earnings. Herself an orphan, Miss Fields has devoted much of her life to helping orphan children.
 Over the years she has had more than 20 children in the Home at a time but at the present the enroll ment is nine.
 The well known woman has been treatment for some time and it was finally decided that she should go Outside for further at tention.

CHARITY GIFTS
 THING OF PAST

NEW YORK, July 24.-Huge in- dowments for religious institutions, such as the three hundred fifty mil lion dollars distributed by Andrew Carnegie and the five hundred mil lion dollars given by the Rockefel- lers, are things of the past.
 This belief was expressed by of ficers of the Presbytery of New York at it's annual meeting.
 Seeking means of replenishing funds that have shrunken in the de- precision, the Presbytery announced it would welcome endowments of less than $1O,O00.
 Such comparatively small en- dowments were not encouraged be- fore 1929.
 The Rev. Guy L. Merrill of the Board of Pensions of the PreSby- terian Church said:
 We need not expect large en- dowments because the wealth of the country is being distributed over wide area and some of us believe in more just way. If man car give only $l0 to his church he should be encouraged to do that.
 We have been brought up to be- lieve that unless we give large sums we are not going to be permitted to participate in the kingdom oi God"

 It helps to hold the weight nor mal and the figure to the slim lines which are essential to chic these days It firms the muscles of the abdomen-one Of the first spots to betray figure age" It stimulates the circulation, aiding general health and contributing much to skin tone and beauty Left without it the most beautiful fi- gure loses its grace, elasticity and youth.
