lately" He leaned little nearer,
resting his elbows on the narrow table
with it's brightly patterned cloth.
perhaps if 1 had clearer conception
of what your troubles are, I could do
better"
Her glance fell away from his. She
murmured, toying with her salad,
"But I thought everyone knew. I'm
deserted wife-after five weeks of
marriage"
Clay said sharply, "You needn't pre-
tend with me, March. You needn't
be flippant."
"Ah, but must. With you more
than anyone, because you have such
nice broad shoulder to cry on. And
crying isn't going to help. I've done
enough of it this last week to be
very, very sure"
Clay asked simply, "What happen
ed, March? You can tell me-"
what happened? My husband de-
cided to go to Wisconsin and help his
grandmother start a summer resort
And I declined to be-uprooted, so
stayed here"
"But what can he do about a sum-
mer resort now, in the middle Of win
ter? And won't such an undertaking
require money? More money than
he has?"
March shrugged. Ellis grandmoth-
er has some money, as we'll as land
But that was one of the reasons he
had to go at once. In case more cap
ital was needed, there were people
he'd have to see, arrangements to be
made. 1t seems there is more to this
resort business than meets the eye of
people like us, who are only used to
cities" Her tone altered abruptly.
I'm being thoroughly horrid, Clay.
I'm making Brent sound SNUG, arbi-
trary, when he wasn't, really. This
is something he'd always wanted to
do. I just-couldn't dissuade him.
If hadn't made an issue of it, if
hadn't chosen to adopt a position
from which couldn't retreat, without
sacrificing my pride completely
And pride is such cold thing to be
left with, Clay. So cold and hard
and comfortless :"
Her eyes, meeting his at last, were
misty with tears. She said in small,
choked voice, Couldn't we-go now,
if you've finished?"
In his car she whispered, "Take me
home and come in with me, Clay.
I've always told you things I couldn't

tell anyone else-and talking helps
a little ;"
Clay sat ON the blue couch, arms
crossed and with desolation in his
heart, while March talked. She still
loved Brent Randolph. Clay wonder
ed how he could ever have doubted it.
And the hope he had been uncon-
sciously cherishing, that the white
hot flame of their mutual feeling had
burned itself out, was bitter as dust
in his throat. He was nothing more
to March than a pair of ears, SYM
|pathetically attuned, a familiar and
dependable presence. Perhaps he
would never be more to her than that.
And it wasn't enough. He hungered
for her kisses, for the feel of her arms
about him. He was human, flesh and
bone and rushing blood. Didn't she
know that? Couldn't she sense in
him desires and yearnings no less real
for being unexpressed?
Little by little the tumult within
him abated, so that he heard her voice
again, became conscious of her words
Brent did what he had to do.
I see that now. But was SO sure
I was right, so confident" her
voice faltered slightly, "that he
wouldn't go through with it, if held
out. I thought he couldn't. But he's
stronger than I am-and 1 suppose
that's as it should be-"
Clay couldn't just sit there listen
ing to her blame herself for every
thing. He said bluntly. "I'm not so
sure you were wrong, even now. This
project of his isn't accomplished yet.
1t will take some doing. And if he
fails"
IF he falls" March said, with diff
ferent infection, "it still won't prove
he was wrong" She spoke slowly,
as though she were thinking things
out as she went along, things that
were only now becoming clear to her.
Don't you see, Clay, it was some
thing he had to do, something he had
to try. He couldn't help himself.
And if he fails at it, he'll try some
thing else. But he won't be simply
marking time, as he was here. He'll

NEW LIONS CLUB
ORGANIZED IN DEL.

The Dagsboro Lions Club held it's
regular meeting on Thursday at $3.50
P. M. at Rays Restaurant, Selbyville,
with Joe Kollock, vice-president, as
presiding officer. The meeting was
we'll attended with three visitors from
the Laurel Lions Club. They were
served a very nice dinner which was
enjoyed by all. The business meet
ing was taken up mostly with making
plans for their charter night and ar
ranging the program, which is ex-
pected to be very interesting, and
which is to be held Friday, May 8, at
TOO p. M. in the John M. Clayton
School cafeteria. Each member Is
honored by Lions International for
perfect attendance. So all members
are urged to be present at all meet
ings. The next meeting was held on

eyes, upturned to his, with shadows
etched beneath them.
When she said nothing, he inquired
Have you had dinner? It's after
light, you know"
She shook her head. 81 wasn't
hungry. I thought I'd finish these
and get something to eat later"
Clay said firmly, cts late enough
right now and I haven't eaten, either
Well have dinner together. Get your
things"
They drove up Michigan Avenue
and turned on Rush Street. The WIND
howled in from the lake, bearing icy
particles of snow that pricked like
needles. March shivered as they hur.
ried arm in arm across the sidewalk
from Clay's car to the entrance of q
Russian restaurant, where they haC
dined so often before her marriage
The head waiter bowed and smiled
at Clay, leading the way to a table
intimately aloof in an alcove. Clay
had way with head walters. The
warmth and the brightness, the soft,
y minor music, closed in around
March, leaving only the small, cold
ore of desolation that was herself.
Clay ordered for both of them, care
fully and with due consideration for
March's preferences.
"Such filling meal" March sigh
ed, regarding it. "And so many
things I like, too"
II should know what you like by
this time" Clay's grin was boyish
"Do you remember the first time !
took you to dinner?"
March nodded, smiling, too. 81

smile faded, but there was warmth
in the dark gaze she bent upon him.

COLLEGE BUILDING
DROPS FOXWELL NAME

AS a result of an opinion delivered
in Circuit Court by Judge James F.
Evans, the new Washington College
Library will not be known, as origin
ally intended, as the Bunting-F oxwell
Library. By action of the Board of
Visitors and Governors of the College
it is officially renamed "The George
Avery Bunting Library"
Judge Evans decision was render
ed in a case which had been brought
before him by the Executor and Trus-
tee of the Garrett Foxwell estate,
asking for an Interpretation of the
will of Senator Foxwell. The decis-
ion decreed that the Visitors and
Governors of the College, shave COM
piled with all the provisions and re-
quirements of the last will and tesla
ment of Garrett Foxwell'', and that
the Executor and Trustee should pay
the proceeds of the estate to the co..
lege.
Judge Evans declared, however,
that in his opinion the use of the
name of Senator Foxwell in connec-
ton with another name was not in
accord with the strictest interpreted
ton of one provision of the will, and
that the College should use the es-
tate for the erection of structure to
bear the name of Senator Foxwell
solely.
At the regular meeting of the Visi-
tors and Governors on April 10, it was
therefore voted that the Library
building recently erected and dedicat-
ed should be officially designated as
"The George Avery Bunting Library

He said, "This wouldn't be charity.
Don't you see, I'd be letting Gran
down if I didn't go, now that she's
raised the money :"
"And what about me?" March de-
manded, her hands tight clenched to
still their foolish trembling. 81 like

illness, all the things you've told me
about so often, as much as you hate

lenthening silence, Cor am not as
important as your grandmother? Am
not to be considered?"
Brent tried to draw her to him.
but she moved away. And stood
there, coolly aloof, awaiting his an
swer.
Brent's hands dropped to his sides
Helplessly. There was pain in his
eyes, deep lines of restraint at the
corners of his mouth, but in his face
his manner, no slightest faltering OF
that determination March had sensed
before. And seeiZg him thus, fear
rose in her that made her want to
cling to him, agreeing blindly to do
what he wished, to be what he want
ed. But pride, coupled with firm
conviction that she was in the right,
held her back. And the moment of
weakness passed, leaving only anger.
Brent said, "Of course, you're i'm
portant, March. You're my wife, ~
A note of. pleading crept into his
voice. GLOW can you be so sure you'd
hate it? It's like nothing you've ever
known"
cor want to know" March put in,
steeling her heart against his plead
ing. She told him, 81 won't go, Brent.
Do you understand? won't -.
She saw muscle tense in his cheek.
He said slowly, II thought you might
see, as I see, that this is our chance
to make something real and vital of
our life together. Here we have no
roots, no stability. We skim the sur
face of things, we live in the moment.
I can't go on like that-but you must
decide what you'll do. I hope you'll
change your mind, March. I hope
you'll come with me. But if you
won't, then I must go alone ;"
The days passed slowly and with
out meaning. There was a queer,
two-dimensional quality about them,
as of very dull pictures projected on
a screen, lacing even the illusion
of reality. Pictures of a girl you
knew quite well, going through the
futile motion of living, fooling no
one, least of all herself. Waking and
rising. Eating tasteless food. Work.
ing fantastic hours, until Clay OBJ
jected sternly.
Good heavens, March, you'll be
ILL" There was real uneasiness in his
grey eyes. Midnight last night
don't know how late the night before.
And there's no sense in it. These lay
outs can wait"
He touched the spread sheets with
an impatient finger and stood there
beyond her drawing board, a tall,
familiar figure, yet somehow strange,
as everyone seemed strange these
days. The studio was empty but for
them, dim but for the light immed-
lately above March. The cone of
brilliance fell on her hair and threw
her face into sharp relief, so that

by the stark unhappiness in her dark

be working out his own destiny"
There was growing excitement in
her tone, kind of glory in her face
that blinded Clay. "He didn't need
my help. He didn't want it. Going
on the way we were would have de-
stroyed him in the end, destroyed us
both. That's what he was trying to
tell me, but I wouldn't listen"

accounted for the fact that the house

tinue the committee for another

"They (the house, were afraid not
