CHAPTER XIV

In the cell that was their quar-
tiers at Carmelo, Fray Mariana
Rubi and Fray Bartolome Gill were
indulging themselves in a little rec
reation. 1t was only a tiny adobe
cubicle, but the two friars were
able, through their peculiar talents,
to amuse themselves wherever they
CHANGED to be. No spot was too
small or too grand, too low or too
lofty.
Fray Mariana sprawled on the
boards of his celibate cot. Fray Bar

half-finished letter that lay before
him on the wine-stained table.

did you get this letter from his Sane
timonious Reverence"
'Ha! What a glorious strategist

Listen well. 1t was this way. Fray
Junipero had called me to his room.

TIPS to
Miscellaneous TIPS

4 EFORE planting, work soil
- deeply, making the top three
or four inches as fine and loose as
possible.
For better termination, pour
water into the drill or furrow just
before sowing. Use enough wa
ter to moisten the soil, but not
enough to cause caking.
If you have had little experience
and wish to try the vegetables
easiest to grow, select radishes,
carrots, beets, Swiss chard, and
turnips. With a good-sized garden
you might add spinach, peas,
beans and corn.
If your garden is small and you
wish to increase the total yield,
try the following quick-growing
vegetables:
Radish, leaf lettuce, beets, car
rots, peas and beans. You can
replant most of these after space
has been made for them by early
harvest.
Do not plant seeds deeper than
directed. After planting cover
seeds Immediately, pressing the
soil down firmly.

Marriage With Divorce
in Vie,o Is Scorned by

loves me and has given up everyone
else in the world for me. feel that
it is my duty to marry her and in
tend to do so. But want you to tell
me if I am doing the right thing.

alone but none of my friends like
her-and she does not fit in well
with the people I've always gone
with. She and I have agreed to get
married and then If things do not
work out well, to separate after
years time. 1 think this is the only
fair thing to d0.-P. M. d.
ANSWER-The lady must be all
fired anxious for matrimony if she's
willing to make an agreement of
this sort. For even the most in
fatuated sweetheart would be loath
to undertake marriage on such a
cold-bloodedly pesimistic basis.
1t seems to me you're asking for
trouble in planning a date on which
you will separate by mutual con-
sent if things don't work out well.
Under the circumstances they're
bound to work out badly. With both
OF you watching the calendar and
reminding yourselves that every
day brings you nearer the possible
moment of separation, you will
hardly have time to get used to
each other-or to learn how to COM
promise.

girl you loue-or t0ith the friends whose

thing else. You hare no cause to t1orry
about them.
Neither should you worry about
the crowd you know whose stand
ards demand a different sort Of
sweetheart for you. Their praise or
blame cannot affect you-except SUI
perficially. There is no case on rec
ord of a mans giving up his true
love in order to please the opinion
of some superior group-and find

CatapuIting AirpIanes

There are two methods of cata-
putting airplanes off ships-the
gunpowder catapult and the COM
pressed air catapult.
These devices work in much the
same way as does a sling shot.
The plane is placed on a car
which is on a track on the deck of
a ship. The releasing of COM
pressed air or of gunpowder at
the back of the plane assists it to
pick up the necessary flying speed.

nEAR DORIS DENE: have
quarreled with my husband and
left him because he prefers his
mother to me. We lived with his
mother up till last week and then
1 left. My husband is still with her.
His mother can't stand me and
made my life torment. I love my
husband and want him to be with
me always. But apparently he
doesn't care enough for me to give
up his mother.-S. T.
ANSWER-Just a minute-just
minute! You're jumping to conclu-
sions so fast you haven't time to see
where you're going. Because your
husband doesn't desert his mother
in order to follow you is no indica-
ton that he doesn't love you. There
may be any number of reasons for
his behavior and you ought to con-
slider some of them before forming
such an unfavorable opinion of your
spouse's brand of devotion.
In the first place, he may feel
quite rightly, that you should have
talked over the situation with him
reasonably, before fiouncing out of
the house in temper. Your sud-
den exit may have hurt him so that
his pride prevents his following you.
Did you honestly give him a
chance to understand how strongly
you felt on the subject?
Now the man of the house may
argue that you knew before you
married that you were scheduled to
live with Mother-in-law-and that
since you married on that under
standing, you're not playing fair
now in walking out on the job. Isn't
it true that you knew what you
were in for, when you married a
man who perhaps had to support
his mother?
And il your husband is his mothers
only standby, he can hardly be blamed
for refusing to desert his big responsible.

after you, regardless of her feelings? II
you'd been tOise you tUouldn't hare ere.
ated situation in tUhich your husband
,oas left in such an a,UktOard position tUith
both contestants.
The romantic lover of fiction
might have dropped everything, and
torn after his departing wife, plead
ing with her to return. But the
sensible everyday man who feels
his duty toward his mother keenly,
who believes in fair play and rea-
sonable treatment-is slow to for
give the tempestuous darling who
has thrown his life into chaos with
her abrupt departure. He may love
her deeply and tenderly yet feel
that her own action has made it
impossible for him to help her
Immediately.
If you honestly feel, S. g., that
the right is on your side, and that
your leave taking was warranted
from every point of view, have no
fear-since in that case your hus-
band will assuredly come after you
to make peace. Life alone with
mother will not prove a satisfac-
tory substitute for the devotion of
a loving wife. And the man left to
endure such dismal substitute will
have a chance to figure out the
rights and wrongs of the case.

CABB|ESVOTINC
ON RATE BOOST

Sentiment to make North Cap
itol Street the eastern boundary
of the first taxicab rate zone, and
to increase the fare in that zone
to Is cents was reported among
taxicab drivers today by Jack
Dolton, who is conducting a poll.
Dolton, president of the Blue
Light Cab Company and of the
recently-organized Amalgamated
Casualty Insurance Company, said
cards on which cab drivers ex.
pressed their opinions were com
ing in at the rate of about 400 q
day. A total of 5000 of the cards
he said, have been distributed to
taxicab operators.
Although unable to give figures
at this time, he said it appeared
that about so per cent of those
voting favored the changes in the
boundary and rate in the first
zone.
The boundary location would
eliminate Capitol Hill and the
Union Station from the first zone.
AS examples, Dolton pointed out
that the change would boost the
rate from the Mayflower Hotel
to either the Union Station or
the Capitol to 80 cents.
Dolton said he expected to turn
over the results of the balloting
within the next few days to the
Public Utilities Commission.
