May 10, 1941.
Dear Christine,
German nationals are leaving
this section as rapidly as Japanese
boats have room for them. A Jap
boat going through the locks is
now cause for extremely alert
guards. People look at them as
if they were possessed of life
the boats, of course.
We went to Taboza Island Sun
day on our first real trip in the
Polly G." The water was as
smooth as glass and is so clear
and clean you can see the white
sandy floor. Ideal for bathing. We
went ashore for lunch and spent
the afternoon wandering around
the interesting little village.
When we started home there
was quite a sea. We were going
against the wind and tide-spray
curtained out from each side-we
went up and down huge swells-
and passed a number of sail boats
which were having a hard go OF
it.
By the time we reached the
mooring at the club | was soaked
and Tame was drenched from the
waist up. Tom and Ruth Cathay
and their little three year old
were with us.
Bina (Bicknell) wrote that you
had taken Mrs. Miller back and
that Pajari was to visit you. I'm
betting Pajar1 will get here be-
fore you that's a challenge.
Tame received a nice letter from
Doc (Steward). 1t seems that the
younger generation is still very
plentiful in Coolidge.
Thank you so much, Chris, Tor
the souvenirs of the conference.
That report was a masterpiece OIL
mimicry. Tame got a special boot
out of "Hugh's" report. Those
words!
I'm beginning to lose the tour
lists viewpoint and don't see
things anymore. One thing 1
have not grown accustomed to,
however. is the constant horn
blowing of the Panamanians -
you'd think you were in Chicago,
from all the noise. The ChlWas
even play tunes with theirs
Yankee Doodle, etc.
Say hello to Aileen Hicks, Lola
Dempster and Edna Pearl for me
= and write soon, Chris, to say
that we can still expect you and
Hugh for your vacation.
Best love to you both,
POLLY.

Farmer Needed No Help
In Convincing Himself

Old Farmer Robinson broke his
plow, so he decided to borrow one
from Farmer Brown.
On the way to the Brown farm
he started thinking: ST wonder if
old Brown will let me take his
plow.''
As he got near to the neighbor-
ing farm he thought: ST doubt If
he will lend me that plow."
Then as he knocked at the farm
house door: ''No, I'm certain he
won't lend it to me-"
Farmer Brown came to the
door, smiled and asked, well,
what can I do for your"
ST just came to say" snorted
Robinson, that you can keep your
bloomin' plow!"

dred and twenty pounds, could break
up John Colt.
Suddenly Karen knew the reason.
This man had never made love to
her, not by word, not by so much
as the pressure of hand. But now
nothing could have told Karen
more definitely than this moment
told her that Colt would rather lose
Alakoa than lose her. John Colt
was In love with her, completely
and utterly, without recourse and
without doubt.
What is it" John Colt said, shat
this man has?"
Karen couldn't answer him.
Compromise" John Colt said
queerly. How could there be any
compromise? If you weren't In the
right-if you did not rightfully pos
sess all this island-do you think
would have fooled with your"
what do you want me to do?"
GAS far as have anything to do
with this Colt said, "I'n never
yield any Wayne one cent"
There was fnality in that; but
instinctively Karen knew that it was
not a inality that had anything to
do with money. What had been a
contest for an island had turned into
contest between two men for a
girl. Neither one of them would be
satisfied now with any settlement
that would not be complete shut
out for the other.
When she had comprehended that,
Karen knew that she was in a trap.
Perhaps already an unalterab1e OBJ
legation had committed her to some
thing she had not foreseen.

Cleveland Sells Stocks
To Buy Community Tree

Sale of stock certificates unparal-
leled in history brought Americas
first community Christmas tree to
Cleveland, Ohio, in 1912.
To raise money for a community
tree, preferred stock was sold in
Cleveland, the City of Good Will
(Unlimited), Incorporated" It was
listed at the head of other securities
on the Cleveland Stock exchange.
Although no personal solicitations
were allowed, more than S12, ZOO was
realized from the sale. A communi-
ty celebration was held around the
70-foot, Illuminated tree that was
erected in the public square.
The next Christmas brought YER
table avalanche of community
Christmas trees throughout the
country. The idea has become al
most national custom, with more
than $1,000 American cities and
towns setting up their own commu-
nifty trees during the Christmas sea-
son.

CHAPTER VIII

Until now Karen Waterson had
secretly looked forward to the first
meeting of Tonga Dick Wayne and
John Colt, as an event no sports
lover would wish to miss. Now,
however, her mischievous spectator
interest was superseded by new ell
ements. Not Alakoa, but Karen her
self, had become the focus of dis
turbance; making her hope that she
would be as far away as possible
when the two should collide.
The inevitable meeting took place
late that afternoon.
On the surface nothing could have
seemed smoother or more casual.
There was tea dansant on the
beach terrace of the hotel; Karen
and John Colt sat at a table be-
side the dance floor. Neither of
them saw Tonga Dick Wayne come
strolling between the tables until he
was standing there, beside Karen's
chair.
Dick Wayne was wearing whites,
which emphasized the depth of his
tan; perhaps that was why he man.
aged to look like the only true is
lander there in all that throng. He
grinned down at them amiably from
his considerable height.
Hello, conspirators."
Karen said, Hello, Dick" John
Colt stood up automatically, but said
nothing; there was no least change
in his expression.
A miniature Filipino boy now
came into evidence behind Dick
Wayne; he was carrying a chair
with which he must have followed
Tonga Dick clear across the lanai
through the crowd. Karen supposed
that she would have to make the
best of the thing, such as it was.
Mr.. Wayne, I'm not sure whether
you've met Mr.. Colt?"
mot possibly the famous deep sea
diver?" Dick asked.
Much better known" Colt purred
"as an inventive pastry cook"
MY mistake" Dick said.
Dick Wayne accepted drink the
Filipino boy handed him, and chuck
led as he looked about him. ST see
some Honolulu people here" he re-
marked. Tomorrow it viii be all
over town that the Waynes' black
sheep is very chubby with the enc
my, and has probably sold out"
Very amusing for you, have no
doubt" said John Colt.
Yes" said Dick "You look
kind of sweet, Karen"
Colt made a movement IN his
chair as if he were about to rise.
Don't go away" Dick said, not
bothering to take his eyes from the
dance floor. He slipped his drink re-
fectively, ST have news for you,
Colt"

Over 800 Years Ago

The hymn "Hark! The Herald An
gels Sing" was written in 1739 by
one of the greatest hymn writer's,
Charles Wesley, brother of John, the
founder of Methodism. The music to
the hymn is a chorale from Men
delssohn's beautiful cantata, "Gott
Ist LIGHT"
The hymn 'Adeste Fideles" ooh
Come All Ye Faithfully has been
translated into rs languages. The
words are sometimes ascribed to
st. Bonaventura, bishop of Albanno
IN the Thirteenth century.

for she naturally values it highly.
"Now don't think" the letter con-
cludes, 'that I am criticizing my
wife. But am working hard, pref
ty well burdened, and not satisfied
to face a future which may be an
indefinite repetition of this sort of
thing. Can you make suggestion
that I can pass on to her In the
hope that she will take a different
attitude toward extravaganza and
bills?"
The trouble began many years
ago, Tired Tim, when Bert was a
little girl. Perhaps because she had
no mother she evidently grew up
feeling that she had only to want a
thing to buy it, and that there was
no relation between honest money
and dishonest bills. Thousands of
women much older than Bert have
this failing, and thousands of moth
ers let their daughters go into mar
rage without hint of the serious
ness of this oversight.
The simple truth is, any woman
who lets her husband worry about
finances is poor wife. This seems
like sweeping statement, but it
is true. To be only money spend
er, squandering his hard-won sal
airy cheerfully on beauty parlors,
frock shops, theaters, club lunches,
bridge prizes, is to fail in your job,
and more marriages go on the rocks
because of this inexplicable stupidi-
ty on the part of intelligent women
than because of any other one thing.
It doesn't matter how fresh,
groomed, curled or frocked you are,
or how charming your house is,
with the new hangings, the new
china, the chromium chairs and the
venetian blinds. If your husband is
worrying about money, he hates it
all.
Husbands Like Serenity.
For men, surprisingly, aren't
fussy about furniture. They love
comfortable old chairs, familiar
lamps, Dads old desk" and
MONS old spoons" They even get
to like the dresses of yesterday;
many a wife has been exasperated
to answer, 1--WE had it three years"
when an affectionate husband COM
ments admiringly upon her costume.
What a husband likes is serenity
at home, woman content and busy,
bills paid.
remember one young wife who
'sfen madly in love" with the pic
ture of nude girl by a stream. It
was in the September Morn" era.
The picture cost $500. It was no
prettier than the picture on the gro
GERS calendar that year, but she
wanted it, and she had to have it.
She paid instaIlments on it for more
than year.
Her husband hated it, and friends
made fun of it. She told them she
was just storing it for Emily. Her
husband, run down and anxious,
died of pneumonia that winter, leav-
ing an estate of something less than
$4,000. Almost one-tenth of that had
to go for the picture. I hope she
felt it was worth while.
Nothing is triding that means un-
easiness, sleeplessness, resentment
to the person nearest to YOU Mod
ern husbands fail their wives some
times in various ways. Probably
Bert could tell some of Tired Tins
shortcomings. But just as long as
young wife is running up unnec-
essary bills and refusing her honest
responsibilities in keeping the family
solvent, her husband is quietly run
ming up a bill against her, whether
he realizes it or not, and she may
have to face that bill some day, and
she may have to pay it in heartbreak
and tears.

TOW many young wives
would feel Mortified and

= = shocked if their husbands
could be identified as the Tired
Tim" who writes me this let
ter? If you happen to be a
young wife the letter may help
you to see one of the pitfalls of
modern marriage little more
clearly than you do.
I say modern marriage, be-
cause marriage used to be quite
different thing a hundred
years ago. A girl was so glad to
get husband then that she
practically idolized him. Fami-
lies were large, having from
eight to fifteen members. De-
pendent mothers and unmarried
sisters lived with the young
wife, and all together the women
handled the tremendous burden
of domestic duties.
They hung out long lines of wash;
cleaned windows; fed chickens;
cared for babies; started children
off for school; wrestled with coal
ranges and dirty CRATES; made fruit
cake and bed quilts; took rugs out
to the yard and beat them; put up
fruit; nursed the sick, and in be-
tween other jobs wrote voluminous
letters to dear old school friends.
It was natural in those days for
the older women of the household
to advise the younger, and to re-
ieve the bride of too much house
hold responsibility until she knew
how to handle it.
But it's different today. Each
bride launches out by herself. In
the following letter one young hus-
band explains just where his wife
fails him.
Wife Had No Training.
Bert is the most adorable girl
in the world" writes Tired Tim,
''but she never had any training,
and money simply doesn't mean
anything to her. We talked budget
before we were married, and
worked it out on paper. but she's
never glanced at it nor given it a
thought since.
We've been married two years
and have baby, seven months old.
I wish you could see what Bert got
for the child. Perambulator, high
chair, crib, bathinette, sterilizing
outfit, blankets = it came to $500
more than our budget for him had
allowed. My salary is $85 a week,
but carry insurance and contrib
ute $40 a month as rent for my
mother, who has a pension; also
pay $87 for our house including taxes
and amortization of debt, and about
$40 more monthly for refrigerator,
stove and so on.
These expenses will lessen as
time goes on, but Bert already has
found larger place she likes better,
where we will have a room for a
maid. We now have only dinner
help.
Bert is hospitable, and nothing is
wv gnu LII LICK 441CA10Ss III Pldlt-
ming menus she spares no expense.
Let's have steaks again, and
mousse, and alligator pears she
will say. Our friends are all better
fixed financially than we are, and
my wife likes to keep up with them.
Very Much in Debt.
Last week my Office boss told
me that they had considered me for
a promotion, but the fact that was
about $4,000 in debt to doctor, hos
pital, dentist, florist, and so on,
seemed to them serious thing and
they wanted an explanation. Fool
ishly, / told Bert this, and her an
swer was to appeal to her father for
money, because Tim was being so
mean The old man, very much wor-
ried, gave her diamond ring of
her mothers to pawn, and Bert ever
since has been anxious to redeem it,
