REG|STRAT|ONFO FOR
ELECTION IS HEAVY
Rain on Saturday Fails To
Stop Signing of Vot-
ers in County

A fairly heavy registration has been
had over the county up to now for
the Democratic primary election of
June 4, according to information
available today. One registrar report
ed adding 35 names to his records last
Saturday.
The books opened a week ago last
Saturday and will close on Saturday
of this week. The usual transfer of
citizens from one locality to another,
and the signing of new voters account
for the changes that are being made.
There have been considerable in both
quarters, it is understood.
Although last Saturday was a day
of inclement weather, with rain much
of the time, registrars experienced a
rather busy day of it, and put many
new names on their books
Voters who have not as yet quail
fled. have only this week to comply
with the law. Those who have trans
ferred from one precinct to another
are now required to bring with them
a dismissal certificate from the pre-
cinct they are moving from, a pro-
cedure which has not been so rigidly
required heretofore.

was because the first of the ski party had
into view.
The wedding was to be on Christmas

and Quen would never climb together. Had
Randy made plans for things that he and
Suzanne would never do together?
For feeting instant she had feeling that
Randy's smiling good humor took stronger
sort of courage than even skiing demanded.
Then she forgot Randy in watching how, be-
yond the ridge, the smoke of Suzanne's lodge
fire spiraled lazily up into the deepening she'll

He nodded, looking down at her in her baggy
trousers her high-collared redcoat.
Il wish could be as casual as you, Randy.
wish could say I never stood a chance with
Quen, and let it go at that. But keep asking
myself over and over: is it because work in an
office and she can afford to play seven days
week? Is it because Suzanne has more nerve
and is better skier? Is it because he is rich, and
money just naturally seeks out money? Some
way, never cared whether he had any or not.

in bright drops in the depths of her casually

were level fringed by dark lashes in the softness
of her oval face

of the goblet with an intoxicating witchery."
Martha managed smile. Il see."
"Andafter champagne bender, " said Randy,

Il never thought much of bread myself,

Funny coincidence, isn't it, that Suzanne
should have picked you for maid of-honor, and

"You don't really think it was accidental"
No. unused Randy. 1T was Suzanne's un-
erring sense of drama Come along ppsqueak." k"
He grinned at her and pushed off along the easy
slope of the valley wall, muddling through and
managing to hold his balance by sheer grit.
Following, Martha eyes lighted with alonely
gleam of humor. At least, after the wedding,
she and Randy would be spared the ordeal OF
skiing with Quen and Suzanne. Never would
either of them have to battle up hill on skis
because it was not cricket" to take off the
awkward boards and climb on foot. Never
would they have to feel the breath pushed back
into their pounding lungs and their eyes blinded
with tears in the roller coaster horror of
straight downfill ski-run.
Ever since he had discovered skiing and
talked Randy and Martha and the rest of the
crowd into the sport, Quen had skied with an
air; his every crouch and turn was precise, his
ski tracks, parallel lines as clipped and exact
as his beautiful features, struck out over the
steep runs and beeathless jumps. Randy S

Over the ridge of their little valley the other
skiers appeared. trailing delicate lengths of
azure shadow. Martha drew quick, painful
breath as she saw Suzanne, tall, her hair gold
halo in the sunset light, and Quen half-a-head
taller gliding beside her protectively, exquisitely
poised as sea gull in fight. Then Quen swung
his skis ever so slightly and came straight to-
ward Martha.
Quen had little jump he wanted to show

She found herself riding beside him, skis
parallel with his. She knew vaguely that Randy

knew that she and Quen we're not skiing the
slopes of heaven; but those shadowy facts could
not dim the shining certainty that she was again
side by side with Quen, his hand holding hers.

They shot into space together and Marthas

her. Touching snow she fought for balance and
wound up, face flaming with humiliation, in
snowdrift.

demanded Quen. His dark eyes. wide set in the
smooth gold of his face. laughed down into hers
until an ache in her breast expanded into sitting
physical pain. He reached hand to help her up
and she shut her eyes for moment, loving the
feel of his hard, firm hand under her arm.
Then with shouting of tumpets in her
heart she felt his arm tighten around her and
against her cheek was pressed, as it had been
pressed so many times; the roughness of his

Abner Doubleday, OF Cooperstown,

years of age. While crude form
of the game had been played for
some years, Doubleday introduced
