and greeted Mrs. Nordfeldt with an extra dose
of his most ingratiating charm.
He took their bags and was chatting amia-

the station crowd, when Mrs. Nordfeldt sud-
denly asked, Are you expecting someone else,
Mr.. Capper?"
Charlie looked cautiously at her. mo.

Il don't know" Mrs. Nordfeldt laughed.

''Confidentially," he murrnured to her, I'm
still looking for Mrs. Nordfeldt. I'm sure you're
Miss Nordfeldt, aren't you Mr.. Nordfeldts

Mrs. Nordfeldt spread her feathers and
laughed with pleasure, and Charlie saw she'd
be cinch. If only - but there was no use
thinking about that.
At the house, Louise was waiting and while
she looked little haggard to anyone who knew
her, a stranger couldn't detect any nerve ends
sticking out. =
His expression convinced her that the three
little blood brothers were out of the way,
and from then on it was distinct rally.
Charlie waltzed with Mrs. Nordfeldt till one
that night, and he had her in his pocket. Mex
morning he muffed seven-inch putt on the
eighteenth to lose the match to Nordfeldt, and
he felt sure that his bitter language over the
loss of the match sounded convincing. Miss
Peel's specifications were waiting at the house

business, His offic1 had done a lot of work, and
Nordfeldt was appreciative, but that was as far
as it went A hard headed stubbornness rode

cuffs down and said grimly, mo Indian is

going to get them out!'

stalked through the dining room door, Louise
looked at Lily, and Lily looked at Louise. In
three minutes Charlie came back, looking dazed
and haggard and helpless.
Il shook hands with them," he said slowly
unbelievingly. They shook bands with me-
and then they sat down again"
Louise laughed little historically. Charlie
couldn't see anything funny. He stood in the
middle of the kitchen, undecided. Then he
walked into the pantry, where he had left his
hat and coat, and came out wearing them.

EPISCOPAL GROUP
CALLS FOR UNITY
Committee Reports At Annual
Meeting OF Diocese
In Charlotte

CHARLOTTE, May 8.-lR-The
committee of faith and order of
the Episcopal diocese Of North
{ rolina reported today that there
was a need Of unity for Profess
tant christendom.
It said that the %concordant
agreed upon by the joint commit
tees Of the Protestant Episcopal
and Presbyterian church in the
United States Of America, usually
known as the Northern Presbyte-
rian, was an acceptable plan. The
report added that no definite
agreement could be reached by the
Episcopal church until after the
next general conference, which
meets in Kansas City, Mo-, Oct.
9. and until after the Lambeth
conference in England, which is
the union of all Episcopal churches.
The latter conference has been de-
layed by the European war.
The committee should be con-
tinued, the report went on, de-
claring that the convention should
approve its reaffirmation of chris
tianity and adopt the language of
Bishop Edwin Penick in which he
urged that 1--WE give our best and
all support of the only insti-
tuition empowered and command
ed to give eternal life to man."
The matter was discussed by the
diocese and it finally decided to
be noncommittal until the larger
conventions had spoken.
The convention accepted the invi'
tation of the Church of the Holy
Comforter, Burlington, to hold the
1941 meeting there. Memorials
were adopted for the Rev. F. H. T,
| Horsfield of Oxford, H. M. London
Of Raleigh and J. Renwick Wilkes
Of Charlotte.
The Rev. Roma c. Fortune OF
Durham reported on his work among
1900 deaf persons in the state.

three ~treasurers, consolidated these
offices and appointed the Security

Make Them Tell

ASHEVILLE, May S.-P-
Tom Cooper of Wilmington urged
mountain democrats to demand
that other candidates for the
democratic gubernatorial nomi-
nation tell "who is putting up
this 81, 00O, 1000" to finance their
campaigns.
TN this race I, and I alone,
am a free man-free Of obliga-
lions to powerful interests, free
of obligations to organized poll
ticians," said Cooper. "And if
elected, I and I alone, will be
free to serve all the people Of
u state rather than to serve
those who through big campaign
contributions and the devious
manipulations of professional po.
lltlclanS seek to elect any OIL
those who oppose me-"
Cooper quoted a veteran news
paper writer as the authority for
the statement $1,000, 900 would
be spent in the campaign.
1.-The next governor should and
must represent the great masses
Of the people of our state" said
Cooper but do you think that
any man whose hands are tied
by shackles which r placed on
him by powerful interests before
those interests contribute thou
sands Of dollars to his campaign
fund can ever be free to serve
