CHAPTER w

CHAH LEN ~
Villa had promised Carl she
would leave Washington on the
same night he accidently bumped
into her on 7th Ave. in Harlem.
Why did she leave before her time:
See in this thrilling story brought
to you by WHITES SPECIFIC
TOILET co.
Go on with the story
"What on earth are you doing
here so early? thought you would
leave tonight Villa? 2"

the next train after you left. What
are you doing over in this section?"
ooh just scanning with an au-
thor's eye," he answered. "What
are you doing here in this section ?"
he smiled as his retaliational ques-
ton evoked a smile.
"We're going to see Imitation of
Life. It's at Appolo." Turning to
her girl companion she said: miss
Parks, this is Mr.. Smith, the young
man I spoke to you about whom I
met on the train.
Miss Parks is my cousin" she
concluded to Carl as they acknow-
lodged the introduction.
"Won't you have something cold?
Let's go in the delicatessen and
get set up -. on me-"
"No thank you Carl. We don't
want to be late for the next show"
replied Villa obligingly.
Same address you gave me in
Washington" asked Carl.
eyes; but phone me before you
come" she advised, giving him the
number, which he quickly wrote on
his note pad and the girls left for
the theatre.
Weeks passed, and Carls atten-
ton to Villa grew more and more
intense. They seemed to understand
each other because of similar pasts.
An affinity was bred between them.
They went out to parties and thea
tres together; but upon returning,
she always refused to terminate
the evening with a kiss. That act
puzzled Carl and it later became
a cancer on his mind.
Sweetheart" he said one night
after returning from a theatre,
"Why is it you are so loving to
me; yet you always keep me at
elbows length? Do you know you
have never kissed me?" he asked
gazing into her eyes. She moved
uneasily, her color changing, as she
attempted to evade the question
with humor.
"Now, now, naughty boy. Must
MT talk naughty" Then she opened
her door and stepped inside, closing
it except for small crack through
which she could talk. His face
showed dissatisfaction. "Good night
he said as he racily turned to leave
She closed the door slowly anC
went to her room and sat on the
side of the bed, holding her heac
in her hands. She pondered for 8
long time. ooh mel" she finally
sighed, "He is sch a nice boy, anC
has such a bright future, I cam
ruin it! / just can't!" she solilo
quized, bursting into tears.
Two weeks later, Carl received {

Boys Ride TortO.ses

Turtle riding is one of the favor
lite games down at Nassau in the
Bahamas. The native boys at Mas
sau love to play jockey to 7OO-pound
sea turtles. Their method is to
dive for a big salt water tortoise
lying quietly on the bottom in the
transparent water and grab the for
ward end of his shell just back Of
his neck. It's a dangerous way to
mount the animal, because if he
draws in his neck and elects to
stay down, the riders hands may
be caught between the turtles neck
and his shell, and the rider has to
stay down with him. However, the
boys know just how to do it. The
turtle comes to the surface, and
the ride begins. The only trouble
is that there isn't any way Of guild
ing this steed; the boy has to 60
where his mount happens to feel
like swimming.

StilI Resist Innovation

In 1918, seven years after his pat
ent for the vacuum tube was grant,
ed, Lee de Forest was indicted on q
charge of using the mails to de-
fraud. In his attack the district at
torney remarked: de Forest has
said In newspapers and over his own
signature that it would be possible
to transmit the human voice across
the Atlantic before many years.
Based on these absurd and deliber-
ately misleading statements the
misguided public, Your Honor, has
been persuaded to purchase stock
in his company" A. D. McFadyen,
an examiner in the electrical divi-
sion of the Patent Office, told this
to the National Electrical Manufac-
turers association recently just to
show that we are still as resistant
to innovation as were our forebearS,
who thought that iron ships would
sink and that the wheels of locomo-
tives would spin on slippery tracks
without getting trains anywhere.

the return of Bob Brown, husky

an exceptional blocker, should add
greatly to Maryland's running at

strongly in Maryland's dangerous
passing game.
There also will be a duel of music
and vocal chords to enliven the oc-
casion. Florida's 60-piece band and
the famous Gator Pep Club of IS
