only asked because I was inter
ested."
"Well, it's nothing to be inter.
ested in anyway" Janet had never
heard Joels voice when it was
surly.
"Will you start right to work
I mean tomorrow"
Huh? :. oh, yes"
Janet picked UP her newspaper
to hide her hurt.
"Are my white f1annels clean
I'll have to wear them and my
blue coat"
She put down her paper. GLOW
do you know what you'll have to
wear, darling?"
"Is there anything else you'd
like to know" he inquired cOldly
mo, Joel, not thing" she an
swered slowly.
But there were many things she
wanted to ask him during the next
four weeks.
She wanted to ask him why he
wouldn't talk to her about his new
job? She wanted to know why,
the few times she had asked tenta-
tive questions, he had grown
sulky and silent. She had been
afraid then, afraid that the silence
between them would naa.Ae q rift
that they could not bridge. But
she kept silent.
She wanted to know what kind
of moving picture he was MAX
ing since he wore the same clothes
every day-either his white fan
nels with a blue coat, or on alter
nate days, his fresh white linens
and what kind of a picture COM
pany was it that required his serv-
ices at such odd hours. Joel left
the apartment every afternoon at
half past 3 and didn't return until
$50. He was punctual in his de-
partures and arrivals.
But now they had money. Some
weeks it was $50. Other weeks it
was $50 and over. Not much COM
pared to what they had had but it
was a lot when. you had pinched
pennies trying to feed two people
on so cents a day.
And now they had good times
again. They went for little boat
trips. On Sundays they were up
by 6 and, while Joel dressed, Janet
packed a lunch of sandwiches and
fruit and they were off to the
beach before the crowds had be-
gun to pack the trains. On hot
evenings, when Joel looked so
physically tired, Janet took him
off TO the green shadows of the

| park or lured him onto the top of
a bus for a ride up Riverside drive.
If Janet was mystified by the UNI
answered questions in her mind,
she was not unhappy. Joel was
more like his old self, proudly
bringing a new bathing suit home
to her, a little bottle of her ia
vorlte perfume, a huge box of
flowers that wilted over night.
There was nothing to disturb her
quiet happiness until
One night she said to joel,
Darling, a lady who wouldn't
leave her name called you today.
She started to say, Ask him to-
telephone Mrs and then she in
terrupted herself and asked who II
was. I told her was your wife
and she said, never mind, and
hung up"
"she probably had the wrong
number"
Janet let it pass. They had had
their own telephone installed.

There were three after that. Each
time it was woman's voice. The
last time Janet said, "This is Mr..
Paynter's apartment" She didn't
say she was Mrs. Paynter. /:
Tell Mr.. Paynter that Mrs.
Berwind telephoned. He'll know
my: NAME" the voice said. !
JOer had d flush on his high
cheekbones when Janet told him
about it but he volunteered no ex-
PLANTATION and Janet controlled her
features so that no expression of
what she was feeling showed on
her face.
Joel is attractive and I am not,
she thought reasonably. I've got to
learn to expect that women will
run after him. He loves only me.
She buoyed herself up with that
knowledge.
Nevertheless, when a few days
later she found herself face to face
with Harry Devanter, an old beau,
and Harry took her firmly by the
arm, saying, Janet, you're sight
for sore eyes. Come and have a
cocktail with me-" she accepted,
feeling the need of being important
if only for little while.
eff you still dance as beautifully
as you used to, were going to the
Jungle Bar and have a whirl."
"On to the Jungle Bar, what
ever that is, and let what will,
happen" she said gaily.
"The Jungle Bar, since you
don't seem to know, is the place
that boasts the most attractive
gigolos in New York but, mind
you, you're not fat and 40 and I'm
beauing you" He gave directions
to the taxi driver.

of them the call was for.

to stop work. she has had to econo-

IIdlelSn, JAM N.-SO badly mas the
work" program of the House slipped
that Speaker Gregg Cherry publicly
called attention of committees to the
fact that more than SO bills had been
introduced and were resting peace
fully in the office of the principal
clerk with no action by the commit
tees supposed to study them.
Committee chairmen just get them
out Of the clerks office, at least
Then if they don't do anything about
the bills they won't be cluttering up
the office, at any rate said the
speaker in effect.
North Carolina diverts 6.82 per cent
of it's highway funds to other pur-
/ poses, according to "The Motorists
Girds for War;" an article in Serb
ner's Magazine for December. This
against a diversion percentage of
1854 for the entire United States the
article claims.
A table accompanying the article
gives North Cardinals total diversion
as 81, 757 1862 out of total motor We
hicle receipts of 5,761, 227
These figures however are disputed
by a great many Of the legislators
here in Raleigh who claim that there
is no diversion of highway funds in
this State.

For instance, when John L. Skin

studying proposed levies on intan-

collection machinery is perfect or that
there isn't plenty. of !skullduggery by
county officials in the matter of the
Is cent levy for general purposes.
Of tax listers Mr.. Skinner said:
"Of course they're not perfect.
They're appointed to pay political
debts-you all know that. But on the
whole they're good men trying to do
the best they cam
And of the counties and the Is cent
lew he remarked:
MANY of the counties are using all
kinds of devices to get around the Is
cent limitation. Some day some big
corporation is going to fight it's taxes
on the grounds THAT the county is
exceeding the Is cents, and shudder
to think what's going to happen when
that day comes"

Another thought is that forecast of showers followed

How will not recall the danger of losing ones position

The result may be that the selling will be mostly by traders
