"But you will" Jackie flashed. Now she stepped closer to him, slipping an arm through his, look ing up at him again. You know" she said to Beryl Melrose, Roger and are going to be married just as soon as he comes back from hls flight
 we arel" Roger looked quite astonished at this news, as though it was the first he had heard of 1t as indeed 1t was.
 We decided on that tonight" Jackie said. At least, I did" She flashed Roger another shy, sweet smile. She was not Evelyn La Farge's daughter for nothing, after all! T found out-just tonight that I must have that definitely un- derstood-before Roger goes away, l mean"
 q understand, Beryl Melrose said. Her dark eyes looked into Jackie's a significant moment-as though she did understand, per- haps more than had been said. She said good night once more. Roger said he would see her to her cab.
 When he came back he found Jackie sitting in secluded corner, sheltered by a mass of flowers and shrubs, screened from the dance platform and the gay lights. She locked as though she were waiting for him. Winch was exactly how she had hoped to look.
 "See here" Roger stood over her, did you mean that-what you said to Beryl? Or were you still only pre- tending. :. Don't pretend with me now, Jackie, please!"
 T won't" Jackie answered. She lowered her long curling lashes Maybe because she did not want him to see what her eyes really said. "No-I wasn't pretending I I guess you were right, Roger. About Beryl Melrose, I mean. I could not bear to see you with her-all eve- ming" That was the truth. It had made her so angry that she had seen red.

You mean that!" Roger took a step closer, he caught both of her hands in his. Don't pretend with me now, Jackie-I warn you. This is just between us. Not for the bene- fit of your mother, or anyone else"
 "Yes, it is just between US" Jackie said. Ths was how she would even the score with hm. For get ting her into this crazy idea of his for everything. This was how-in the end-she would show him how she hated him. Nobody else has anything to do with this" Jackie said.
 Certainly nobody else had any, thing to do with what happened next. With one swift motion Roger drew her onto her feet. He caught her to him and held her closer than he ever had held her before. His eyes, that were as blue as the sky, looked down into hers long mo- ment. Then his lips found hers and clung to them.
 Jackie had not known that there could be such a kiss as this, fierce, yet tender, delirous, wet thrilling, a kiss that lifted you out of your self so that reality slipped from your senses, robbing you of reason, stirring your veins into joyous tumult that was fearful, heart-fill- ing. So that for a moment you al- most believed in it yourself!
 Jackie saw now that this idea of hers was almost as dangerous as flight into the stratosphere! But Jackie was not afraid of anything. She would play this through, too until the bitter end.

A TERSE telegram dispatched 1A from Austria to Serbi ia plunged Europe into the World War, July 28, 1914, and few hours later the numbering Austri- an siege guns commenced bom- bardment of Belgrade.
 Specifically, the war was de- clared because Serbians had as- sassinated the archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir to the Austrian throne. The Serbs were inspired by hatred for Austria, which persecuted it's orthodox Serb sub- jects and stood in the way of Serbian national unity. Yet an official report made to the Austri- an government July 13, 1914, by an investigator of the murder, re- iected the idea of any complicity in the crime on the part of the Serbian government. O
 Germany, meanwhile, had ad- vised Austria that it could count on complete support" in the event of war on Serbia. And still later, Russia had drawn up mobilization orders. Germany had supported Austria, of course, in order to frustrate Russia. So in the rapid interplay of these ges- lures, risk turned to will and Eu- rope found itself in a general con- flagration almost before it knew it. Thus the great Austrian guns fired the shots that started the World War. One is shown here on a

Fair Enough
By WESTBROOK PEGLER

So, at last, they totally obliterated
the Jews from the face of the earth
The last few hundred thousand were
taken to sea in old merchant boats,
packed in cages and locked up tight,
and when the rusty fotilla reached
the appointed spot, far down in the
South Atlantic, the crews and sailors
opened the sea cocks, abandoned ship
and made for the vessels of the Inter
national Navy, which took them on
board and opened fire with their guns.
1t was like shooting barnyard ducks.
In less than an hour it was done. The
mopping up was simple but thorough.
Picket boats went out among the
wreckage with sharpshooters in their
bows to pick off the few half-con-
scious foaters who had been blown
free by the explosions and had been
able to grasp fragments of furniture,
doors and booms. There was not one
Jew left on the face of the earth, not
one, and the remaining peoples of the
world sighed with relief and said,
''Now we shall have peace and prog
ress and no more greed, lying, cheat
ing, conspiracy or theft"
The property of the Jews was dis
tributed according to promise, and
there was now no reason why the peo-
pie should fail to prosper and get
along as friends.

Mt. LAKE PARK
A Worthwhile Organization

Old Man Winter with his frosty
beard has been much in evidence since
last Thursday. Here in the Park we all
had our troubles-frozen water pipes
stalled cars, drifted streets. The snow
plow was out as soon as possible, how
ever, and helped considerably.
The squirrels and birds were beg
gars, but not in vain, for food was
provided for them. We know of one
summer resident who always leaves
grain to be fed throughout the win
ter. We refer to Fred. C. Fleming, of
Fairmont. Others in the Park looking
out for wildlife are DR.. w. B. Love,
J. A. Clark, Wiley yelling and many
others.
One group of wildlife need have nc
fear for the winter to come. On the
Ed. O'Donnell property the quail have
found shelter. Last week we spoke OF
this, but could not give you all the
data. This week we can: Each week
on Sunday, to be exact, some of the
members of the family go to the shell
ters and leave food for the week. Many
quail are making this their home for
the winter.
A word as to the members of the
local wildlife organization. There are
to date 33 members in good standing
The officers are: Lloyd Cook, presi-
dent; E. G. Smith, secretary; John
Morgan, treasurer. On Thanksgiving
at the rifle range, their headquarters
shooting match was held and turkeys
won by Harland Bittinger, Ben Shat
fer, Israel Moore and John Dixon.
Members of the organization wish
the public to understand that the or
ganization is for the protection o1
wildlife, and each and every member
is pledged to do this and to obey al
game laws.
