GOALS TO NEWCASTLE
By BETTY CLARKE AP Feature Service Writer

Give the bride a beauty shower.
 Make it possible for her to have, for once, all the accessories she all ways has wanted.
 Among the first things she her self probably will buy for her new home are boudoir table and a good mirror.
 Hint to the Bridegroom
 Probably she also will own a good comb and brush set. If she doesn't that's a hint to the bride groom-or to that relative-in-a quandary who wants to get some thing especially beautiful and last ing.
 Here are the things guests at the shower might consider. The brides favorite perfume Match it with eau de cologne, bath salts and dusting powder.
 A set of two or three atomizers for her dressing table. One for per- fume, another for cologne. a third, perhaps, for whatever she uses on her hair.
 Assemble a complete manicure set.
 Start off with two good pairs of manicure scissors, one small pair for fingernails, a larger pair for toenails. Add a good file. (File and scissors might have handles to match her comb and brush set) Besides those she'll need: A good cuticle clipper, buffer, gen. erous supply of orange sticks and emery boards, an assortment of cu- ticle creams, nail polishes eff she uses them) and cuticle removers. Don't forget small manicure bowl and a tray on which all these ac- cessories may be placed.
 A Beautiful Powder Jar
 Scour the cosmetics counters for a really beautiful powder jar, hair receiver and makeup tray for her dressing table. Buy bottle bag or a small make up case fitted with jars, brushes, comb and so on-for trav- cling.
 Then start collecting attractive bottles and containers for her bathroom shelf Add scented bath soaps. bath and nail brushes Of several sizes = in matching colors or materials-and perhaps even a pair of bathroom scales.

 Return to the Wars is the order of the day in the lGastineau Chan mel baseball league tomorrow. when the Douglas and Elks teams meet in a seven-inning evening clash set for 6:30 o'clock.
 Tn case there be doubt in the minds of the local fans those Is- landers are really planning to way lay the Purples. Two wins and no losses to date give the Elks an al- together too high and mighty look. and the Islanders, smarting under two defeats against a single win, have come to the opinion that the Elks must be dumped now, while they can still be caught.
 With weather giving the Island CTS a rest Tuesday, when they were slated to meet the Moose, the lads from across the Channel now have no pitching worries for tomorrow ;; battle. Claude Erskine has had the benefit of plenty of recupera ton and figures to keep, the Elks in hand.
 Against Erskine, the Elks also have full array of hurlers set to start Of the crew, Ward McAlister, Bud Foster, and Harold Abramson, McAlister has shown himself quite efficient so far and will probably draw the call to keep the Elks out in front of the league.

Polly went upstairs to her room. She tried to eat the excellent break fast that the porters boy brought up, but she could not. She could only look at it, blankly. She noticed with some fragment of her mind, that the boy was poorly dressed, as many London urchins were, but that his face was more open and appealing than most. She smiled at him absently and give him coin out of her knit bag, for which he thanked her eagerly.
 "You can take the tray away now," she told him.
 He carried out the untouched breakfast, and when he was in the hall he sat on the floor with the tray before him and disposed of sausages and coffee and wheat bread and honey, very happily. It was good day for the porter's boy.
 An hour passed. Two hours. Polly paced the floor. She knew when the Dover coach came and went. She said to herself at five minute intervals, T must do some thing!"
 At noon she went down to the public room and called MT. Toby aside. She noticed that he seemed loathe to talk to her, for her per- captions were sharpened by anXi- ety now, and by speculation.
 She said, MT. Toby, is there anything you know about Jerry Whitfield wou've not told me? . Because if there is, you must tell me now. He's more than my cousin. He's my sweetheart and we were on the way to getting married"
 We figured it that way, Miss My wife and me. It's pleasant to see young things in love right un- der your nose. In this tavern, now, a body sees plenty of grabbed couples disagreeing over the food. Plenty of business men from Liv- erpool and Bristol and the like. Plenty of young men coming down from Oxford and Cambridge for a fling of fun. Plenty of spinsters travelling with their nieces or their maids. Plenty of - well, of everything but sincere young sweethearts, Miss. was saying to my wife only yesterday"
 Polly caught the innkeeper's wan dering eye and held it. MT. Toby, you're evading. I asked you if you know anything about Jerry Whit field that ought to know"
 well, there's nothing to amount to, Miss Chelsey. Things come up in a mans life, unexpected like If I was you, now, I'd take off my bonnet and settle down for a couple of days to wait for him He'll be back, like as not, as apologetic as can be for upsetting you"
 I'm more than upset" Polly said. I'm frightened. Some things happened to him. Some thing terrible! Nothing else would make him desert me just when we're getting out of England . You're good man, MT. Toby though you ARE an Englishman and I'm not afraid to trust you We're Americans"
 My wife and me knew that too, though we've not told 1t. Are you bound for France?"
 "Yes. We expected to slir across the Channel in a smuggler's boat. Jerry arranged it. That's why say he'd not have deserted

me unless he'd met foul treat ment."
 NO, Miss" said MT. Toby de- liberately, for he believed he saw his duty now. You can put your mind at rest on that score. It's not that. It's something else There was there was a young lady came into the public room and talked to him last night at the table where he was sitting near the door. I take 1t they were old friends. They had coffee to- gether - they had another man that had on hackney clothes. MT Whitfield asked the barmaid to fetch three cups of strong coffee from the kitchen, and they all drank together. After that they went out together"
 Polly's face was still and white Did she have on sky-blue bon net? And sky-blue dress, cut square in the neck"
 "Yes, Miss Chelsey. That was her. Fair complexioned I'd not be too hard on him, Miss. I've | seen men and women come and go under my roof and l know hu- man nature. It's weak. Human natures weak, Miss Chelsey You wait here till he comes back He'll come. Decent men don desert their own."
 Thank you for your informa- tion, MT. Toby" Polly said in g voice that was much too quiet But never mind the advice. II take the next coach for Dover"

A million rried couples plunged with famed Niagara's Falls View bridge when it crashed to destruction recently.
 Battling 24 hours against the worst ice jam in. Niagara's history, buffeting huge blocks that piled 90 feet high in the wide Niagara gorge, the bridge moved three feet off it's foundation and finally tore from it's moorings on two na- lions. Seconds later it lay a heap of twisted wreckage below the frozen falls.
 Thousands of spectators watched in awe-struck silence from both sides of the gorge as the l260-foot steel arched span, weighing 4,500,- 900 pounds, plunged to it's end, plotting out for a moment even the roar of Niagara itself. And around the world countless thou sands more received the news with the same deep feeling.
 For the bridge, built in 1898. was a honeymoon mecca from the day of its opening. From its tow- ering walks one got the most re- markable view of the Falls. No trip was complete without cross ing it.
 Moreover, it served to link the United States and Canada. When it was built it was the longest sim gle span bridge in the world. It replaced a bridge blown down in a hurricane years earlier, and now it in turn is to be replaced. Variously pictured, it appears on one of the U. s. Pan-American stamps of 1901.

Smith rented an office building to Jones for a year at $350 per month. The lease expressly provided that Jones should not assign his lease to anyone.
 In spite of the clause, month later Jones assigned the whole leasehold interest in the property to Brown. Before this assignment was made Smith was told about it, but he made no objection.
 Thereafter no rent was paid to Smith and he sued both Jones and Brown and sought to recover the full amount of the balance due for rent from both of them.
 Jones defended on the ground that he assigned his interest in the lease to Brown without any ob- lection from Smith.
 Brown defended on the ground that the assignment was improper and invalid because it was con- trary to the terms of the lease, and that he had no contract with Smith; that if he owed anyone 1t was Jones. not Smith.
 WHO IS LIABLE TO SMITH?
