LOWERING REVIEWS s.
NORTHERN HURRICANE

Continued from Page One)
Red Cross, and restocking of the
farms has been general. In barns
alone, 1859 were absolutely de-
stroyed, and this does not include
the great number of tobacco
drying barns or sheds along the
lower Connecticut valley. In most
cases these were sucked to pieces
by the hurricane and leveled if
not scattered for miles about the
countryside.
In Massachusetts alone more
than one hundred million dollars
has bene spent to rehabilitate
property damaged, and the job is
yet far from done. The state has
expended $15,000,000; cities and
towns ten millions; the public
utilities, exclusive of the rail-
roads, fifteen millions, this latter
to put back power and telephone
and telegraph lines. Including
logs delivered to the mills under
the guidance of the northeastern
timber salvage administration,
for which $6,782,O00 has been
spent, the administration has
laid out another $4,968,000 for
salvage work, such as topping
out, clearing, etc., making a total
of $11,750,000 expended by the
Federal Government in this line
alone.
Private utilities exclusive of
railroads have spent nearly ten
million dollars for rehabilitation,
and farmers and owners of resi-
Dental properties about seven
and one-half million dollars in
putting their holdings back in
shape.
There remain 1OO,O00,OO0 board
feet of timber to be salvaged,
and many hundreds of thousands
of dollars must yet be laid out
to restore bridges and highways.
This is going to require possibly
years of labor at an unestimated
cost.
The telephone company alone
is likely to be handling repairs
for yet another year, maybe
longer; while railroads, particu-
larly those along the coast, have
much yet to do. The recovery
has been phenomenal. Much of
it never can be restored. More
than 100000 telephones were put
out of business and the cost has
been $15,0O0,00O to date, while
the railroads have spent a rising
1886, 900, according to the re-
ports and roadbeds representing
hundreds of miles.
Massachusetts, has put out for
bridges alone five and half
million dollars, and 800 of the
bridge work is yet to be done.
$l.000.000 To Clear Streams
Up to now a million dollars
has been put into the single OBJ
jective of clearing streams and
waterways of debris, and 75% OF
the stream beds must yet be
cleared. =
Private industry has done
nobly-how much has been ex-
pended it is practically impos-
sible to estimate. Through the
efforts of public and semi-public
agencies more than 20 important
industries have been persuaded

OF THE WAR

pointed directly at the United
States.
The announcer proclaimed that
Germany had nothing but respect
for the land, sea and air forces
of England, but that disgust and
contempt was felt for that "un-
derhand" part of the British war
machine, .;misnamed- the Ministry
of information.
The broadcaster revealed that
the British had claimed that the
German submarine which sunk
the English aircraft-carrier "Cou-
rageous" had been destroyed on
the spot. The submarine was
now in German port and its
crew is very much alive, the
announcer revealed and added
that the officers and men aboard
that U-boat were receiving the
congratulations of the German
STD COItlItldIlQ6E.
The announcer said England
charged Germany with assassin
ating the Roumanian premier,
but declared that Germany had
nothing to gain and everything to
lose by so doing. He said the
premier was pro-Nazi in policy
and that the Roumanian official
was a great obstacle" to the
English, who the Germans brand
as causing the assassination.
Hitler has proclaimed the Ber-
lin broadcaster WENT on, that
maritime warfare will be carried
out according to international
law.
To American listeners, the Ber-
lin announcer told them not to
believe everything they read.
England is striving ito drag" the
United States into the war to
help the Allies, he stated, and
added that the British would
"stoop to any method" to do so.

In Love With A Shadow

WHY couldn't it be? What right
w had you to assume that things
were going to be the way you
wanted them just because you
wanted them to be? Did the man
pursue you or did you pursue him?
Oh, Cecily Stuart, bolD your
proud head, and remember hotD
deliberately you set about to bring
Locke back into your life. Renem-
Der hotD you planned party hop
ing he'd come. Remember hot1
shameless you t1eTe about inUiting
him to supper. Remember that it
tcGs GltCGyS he tDho left you.
Cecily, in an agony of embar-
rasSment and no little shame, dug
her toes into the hooked rug, but
she couldn't stop the flow of her
thoughts, or change their brutal
honesty.
You practically forced him into
tnuittng you to that first picnic.
Yes, but l didn't force him into
taking me to the circus. didn't
night and talk and talk.
Didn't you? Isn't it an imitation
to haze little SupperS ready for
him, to ShotD him hotU glad you
are TO haze him? Isn't that an in
Uitdtion for the neat time?
You can't get quay from the fact
that he doesn't act enamored of
you.
Yes, I can. I can remember
things that can't be put into words.
You can't describe the t1ay that
q man looks at you and makes you
feel as though he thought you tDere
something precious and rare.
Locke has made me feel that
way.
Locke? What's the rest of his
name? Why doesn't he tell you?
Why does he turn off your queS-
tons t1ith TIOnSenSicdI GnSlUerS?
Haze you asked him that one? He
might haze good reason for not
tcGnting you to lcnol1 lDho he is.
He might haze q lUife.

right now" Cecily said aloud. In
the most matter-of-fact way, as
though she hadn't suddenly gone
completely fiat inside, she hung I'D
the yellow dress, unpacked her
brown satin slippers from the
drawer in her trunk, rummaged
around for a piece of brown velvet
ribbon.
She did all of these things as
though she were really looking
forward to the Brewster dinner
party. as though instead of being
bright and gay and to be antici-
pated, tomorrow was now to be
different from the enchanted NOR
rows she had known since Locke
had first walked into her shop.
This Locke business had gone far
enough. 1t was like being in love
with a shadow on silver screen,
like trying to make an impression
on piece of India rubber. It was,
in word. unsatisfactory.

Outside in the Park the tennis

whole is conferred on entertain

Sarasota, st. Petersburg and other

entertainment with this sort of

tourists to a large extent take
advantage of these facilities.

No future. Just content to sell
mushrooms, make a bookshelf,
sell a mess of fish, a bucket of ber-

He was right. How could people
live in a shack and subsiSt on the
proceeds from the sale of fish, or
shelves or mushrooms?

with cold condemnation but the

beauty. What kind of a life with

If they were together on an Eng
