Now he sad, looking up at her
through the smoke of his cigar.
I've sometimes thought perhaps
we hurried you a bit-Paul and
thinking the Festival would be
fitting time for the announce
ment Of your engagement. AS l
said before, too. marriage is not
a matter to be rushed into unless
there is not one iota of doubt,
unless both young people are not
only eager but as sure as sure
can be-
Karen did not say anything to
all this. What could she say, when
the certainty her father spoke Of
was now so uncertain? Now Paul
was not even as eager as he had
been then, which at that time her
father had said had been only
natural for young man. Paul
might deny this, but Karen knew
it was so. ---.,
Il said her father continued,
that there was no one I'd rather
see you married to than Paul.
and l still hold to that. my dear.
Pauls like a son to me. But you
must make very certain that he
is the only man for you, that your
heart knows there could never be
any question as to that, or any
other who could possibly fill that
place in it." =
Karen sill kept silent; she had
sat down on the footstool at her
fathers feet a place she often
took wslen listening TO him. She
could not tell her father that it was
Paul. not sne, who might not now
be certain in her heart that Karen
was the only one.
Il also told you,'' her father
wound up these things he had long
been pioneering and wanting to
say. that l was glad it was Paul
because l knew he would not take
you from me. That was selfish OF
lne. my dear. I know that what
you said was true. that no one
could take you from me, since you
will always be in my heart. I
want you, to know, Karen, that
meant it when l told you that
your happiness must come first
before everything else. :"
Karen reached up to give his
hand a tight squeeze She could
say something to that at last. She
said, I know that, darling, al
though it is dear of you to say it
to me-" 1t gave her freedom to
marry the man she loved, no mat
ter. who he might be-, no matter
how it might hurt her father or
disappoint him, should it not be
Paul. So it was a beautiful gift,
for Karen had long resolved that
she must marry the man of her
fathers choice because of Denis
and the unhappiness her sisters
had brought him.
AS if he read her thoughts, Jim
Bell said now something shS never
had expected to hear from him,
something he had not ever put
into words before. or realized may
be was in that tough old heart of
his. He said, Il believe now 1
was wrong about Denis. l should
not have taken the stand 1 did.
If Raoul is the man she loved
should have accepted him. I
ought not to have held this bitter
ness, this refusal to forgive and
fol get, in myself SO long"

Three Merchants
Fined For
Price Violations

PHOENIX. March 25-Violations
of Office of Price Administration
price control regulations brought
penalties to three Arizona mer-
chants the past week.
In Tucson, Wayne BaSkin, who
brought suit against Paul Leong,
operator of Foodland Market. for
trebel damages, alleging he had
been charged more than the ceiling
price for ham, won a judgment for
$50 in Tucson justice court. Baskin
alleged he was charged 45c for a
half pound of ham when the lawful
ceiling was 29c.
The suit against Leong is the
sixth to be brought in Tucson
courts against merchants unden the
price control act.
In Phoenix, the Phoenix Pie Com
pany ran into legal difficulties
when an injunction was filed in U.
S. District court to permanently re-
strain the firm from selling under
the label Of pineapple pie product
made from cactus. That cactus pie
was sold as pineapple, and at prices
prevailing for pineapple pie, with a
resultant overpricing, under OPA
REGULATIONS. was the basis for the
court action, brought by OPA.
Joe w. Tang, operator of gro
ce $ tucson, was loser in
a treble damage suit brought by
Ethelbert L. Sand, retired winter
visitor. In his complaint Sand list
ed 80 causes of action-sales of meat
and meat products over the price

But electric power isn't auto
matte. The hard-working men
and women of Americas cleo
trio companies are the folks
who have made it dependable.
They've made it plentiful,
too-so that Americas war
plants have far more power
than those of any other nation.
And they've made it cheap -
so that the average American
home enjoys about twice as
much electricity for the same
money it paid Is years ago.

From the hotel prison" Capt.
Cover was transferred with the
others to Stanley where she remain
ed from January until her release
As an exchange prisoner in July.
During that period, one Of her
closest friends was Joseph Alsop,
former Washington newspaperman
whose recent articles in the Satur-
day Evening Post gave a graphic
description of the Stanley camp.
Rice Full of WeeviIs.
Food was constant problem,
she declared. I'VE were rationed
rice-it was incredibly bad-full of
dirt and weevils. Yes, every one
got sick and we would stop eating
for day Or two Then we'd get so
hungry We would have to eat the
rice. Rice rebellion became a COM
mon disease. If it had not been for
extra food we got occasionally
through camp runners I don't think
we could have lived"
Capt. Cover described her daily
program in the Stanley camp where
she occupied a small bedroom in
former BOYS school with three other
women. She told how she helped
cook. clean and attend to daily liv-
ing necessities with the others. One
of the most difficult problems was
finding sufficient room on the COM
munity clothes line to hang out the
daily wash,' she added Although
there were no actual incidents of
brutality the japanese were rude
and harsh to prisoners and on occa-
sion slapped or hit them.
When rumors were circulated they
were to be released. Capt. Cover
said they didn't know whether to
believe it or not.
However, we were convinced
when the Japs started to treat us
better. We had become so listless
from lack of food the thought of
having to prepare to leave became
difficult. 1t was also terribly hard
