down, but thousands of England's houses
- have. They're buildings, most of them
very old as many things in England are, that
housed hundreds of thousands of nobility and
working folk
It's preposterous any more to believe that
raiding Nazis are dropping bombs at strictly
military objects. Any building has become just
that; in total war public shaken by bombing
poisons the morale of the army and the army
collapses of its rottenness.
So bombs continue to fall and blow apart
and fire houses that often represent the entire
fortunes of those who own them.
These people become the homeless, but
Brtain's government quickly assumes the re-
sponsibility of housing them, providing food.
Some day the war will be over. At that
time will come the reckoning. Right now his
.majestys government intends to see that every
bomb-destroyed building is replaced, that no
individual will suffer loss. Thus every house is
fully insured in that the tax moneys of all will
make up the loss of the few.

ARTIST TOPIC
FOR STUDENTS

Miss Barbara Hall. Pontiac,
speaking before her fellow-students
of the Westminster League Sunday
evening at the Presbyterian Church,
emphasized the extreme versatility
of Leonardo da Vinci. She told the
group that he was not only an artist.
but knew many skills, few OF them
being engineering. architecture,
mechanics, music, chemistry. math-
ematics. anatomy, and poetry.
She related an incident in his life
which points 20 his great ability as
a painter. His father had a shield
on which he asked Leonardo to
paint The latter used as models live
lizards and other like reptiles. IL is
said that when his father first saw
the finished product, he was great
ly scared because the painting was
so realistic.
Miss Hall said da Vinci liked to
attend public executions in order
hat he might study the facial ex'
pressions of the condemned man
He also noted the actions and ex'
pressions of many of the townspeo-
pie so that he might better be able
to record life in painting.
She told the group that II Is be

discovered, the head Is rested on

saying, "Reprove friend in secret

Babson Park. Mass. Nov. 10 -
With all the activity and confidence
existing abroad. We see lethargy
and fear In Wall Street. Where the
Dow Jones Average was lSS at the
outbreak OF the war, and later
reached the high OF 1857. 1t is now at
1872. Let ME give you the reputed
reasons for this situation and my
comment thereupon.
Defense a New Industry
l. Although the present indus
trial recovery is now soc above the
level at the outbreak OF the war,
practically all of this increase has
been on war business" Ny Com
ment: What OF It? our industrial
increase has always been due TO
something. the automobile indus
try. the radio craze buying on IN
stallments, or a political victory
The defense industry is a legiti.
mate and permanent industry
?. Although gross profits are
very high, yet taxes are terrific. In
many cases the gross profits have
increased 1000 while the net prof
its. after the payment of taxes,
show an increase of only 1890. My
Comment. II these companies had
had an increase of only 1890 in net
profits and no increases in taxes,
investors would be very happy
Yet what is the diference, espe-
..sa. ata.s 90 "a - la
collected except upon dividends
paid. \ comparison of today's divi'
bends with the prices at which thu
stocks are selling makes them look
ridiculously cheap.
Taxes Can be Passed On
8. Notwithstanding. the huge
taxes that are now being paid by
our corporations. Secretary Nor
genthau talks about an all out
tax program which will take al
profits above Sc" My Comment
Employers have always feared IN
creased taxes. Turn to the history
of any nation and you will see a
continual wall over taxes. OF
course, taxes at times have been
almost coniiscatory to investors
who live idly on inherited wealth
Those in active business, however
have always found that they could
pass on the taxes to the ultimate
consumer.
4. Although there have beer
no panics In the stock market since
World war IL started in September
1899, yet there has not been any
definite trend one way or the other
People like market which is NOV
ing" My Comment: The fact that
the average Spectator does not
like today's market Is one of the
reasons for my liking IT, AS 8
rule. most spectators are wrong
They are enthusiastic about the
market when they should stay cut
OF it; and they are Discourage
with the market when they should

Commodities Are Low
5. Most commodity prices
have gone up so much recently
many chart readers have become
boarish. 1t is an old saying II
Wall Street that high commodity
prices precede lower stock prices.

nationality. I've about decided he
is the lucky man. Alkire is creak-
ing with age and II Hamilton had
a chance, he'd have got you long
ago-no, it must be the Creek

With a calm manner that
pierced his inebriated brain she
said, TONY is Carlyle's protector.
And my baby needs a protector,
because she is the heiress to twelve
and a half millions from her ia
theirs mother"
His white fabbergasted face
amused her. Beyond, she saw the
crowd pouring from the doors of
the theater. II must ask you either
to get control of your manners, or
leave before Carlyle gets here"
Tate remained where he was,
tense-faced, waiting, until Tony
swung the laxative child into the
vacant seat. Tony crowded into the
small one at the back.
Ylena said, Carlyle. this is

quiet, in contrast to her usual eff
fusive manner.
The two men shook hands. No

After a while, uneasy beneath
Tate's dark, brooding eyes, the
blond girl said, 1--WE must go"
Tate snatched her hand and kissed
it, then dropped it and wheeled
away.

"why, no, Carlyle. He had blond
hair"
Not that one, Tony. The bad one

In the rear vision mirror Ylena
looked at Tony. They had trouble
in controlling their features.
At home, in Ylena's bedroom, her
small daughter asked in a per-
turbed voice, why did that man
kiss your hand"
He used to be In love with me-"
Carlyle leaned against the wall
beside her mothers dressing table.
Solemnly she said, "Mamacita,
think that man still loves you. He
acted just like they do in the
movies when they love someone. "
She waited for an answer, realized
there was none coming. and began
to restate her opinion.

C1ApTER FORTY-FOUR


FRANCIE did not come to work
on Monday morning. At about noon
she drove up before the shop in
Tate's maroon coupe, Davy seated
beside her. All expressions of graft
tude that would otherwise have
been uttered were submerged in the
meeting between Carlyle and Davy.
They simply walked right up to
each other and stared. silently, as
children do when forming an opin-
ion. Then they smiled and ex-
changed "Hellos."
Lets go into the patio" Car
lyle invited Immediately, land play
with Coco and Tommy Tucker"
Away they raced, their friend
ship cemented.
Then Ylena said to Francis,
Feel better?"
The dark girl nodded. I'm living
at the Cromwell house" And that
was all in the way of explanation
or thanks.
TO Ylena, time was no longer
time. Such a thing did not exist
because each day now was heaven.
True. she had charlottesville En-
senada hotel and Tish's house, 9TH
err work also had crowded in, but
the dependable Barker saw to 1t
that she had many extra hours
with Carlyle.
They made trips to SCOTS Cop
per Creek ranch, where the little
girl lived a rapturous life. She had
her pony. She learned to twirl a
lariat. She became acquainted
with the call of coyote, with jack
rabbits, with road runners and
horned toads. and less pleasantly,
with rattlesnake. While Scott
beat the writing menace to a
dusty pulp, Carlyle helped by jump
ing up and down and screeching.
Afterward Scott presented her
with the rattlers. seven buttons, a
frightful affair which Carlyle cher
ished and put on her dressing Ia
BILE Beside it. she placed placard,
studded with gold paper stars.
"Scotty is the bravest in the
world" she printed, then, remem-
bering her young Italian protector,
she added with tact, you too,

Occasionally Ylena thought Of
Tate. What was he doing? Was he
we'll? She wanted to know, yet
dared not ask anyone. How, she
wondered. was 1t possible not to
catch even slight glimpse OF him,
In comparatively small town.
And then that very evening she
saw him while she sat in her car.
waiting for Carlyle and Tony to
come out of the theater.
While the warm spurts Of blood
hammered in her temples, Tate
stepped off the curb.
He leaned on the car door. as
this what / was supposed to do,
Ylena?" Incapable Of speech. she
merely nodded. Her eyes fitted
over his face. absorbing every fea-
ture. How I've missed himl How
I've missed him. Those words Of
loneliness fitted through her head,
over and over.
He spoke then, and the girl real
lied he was drunk. Scowling and
wretched in his helpless alteration,
he was at the same time jealous
and insane with the desire to
wound her.
I've been wondering, Ylena,
which one Of my rivals you'll final
ly marry. Alkire. Scott Hamilton
or the Greek god ?"
"If by Greek you mean Tony,
you're mistaken IN nationality.
