Her heart that had stood still
beat heavily now. And there was
a taste Of bitterness in her throat,
of utter defeat.
She couldn't stop staring at the
ring, nor. apparently, could Kelvin.
But his eyes lifted first. There was
I a chill blue flame in them.
"A wedding ring" he said,
his voice ominously quiet.
Val wet her lips, still staring at
the ring in Kevins palm, unable
to lift her eyes to his face.
Yours" he said. through tight
lips. It was a statement, not a
question.
If Val thought she could have
got away with a denial, she would
have lied even then. But her mind
was a whirling confusion. her
hands began to shake. Finally, as
Kelvin strobe toward her, she
forced her glance upward to his
face. The white, set fury of it
shocked her. Still she couldn't
speak.

But your husband?" Kelvin
prodded, still standing there be-

fury, with deep hurt. "Or-were

Val had gone too far along the
patch of truth to turn aside on this
unexpected detour. She said, "My

he's much older than l."
"And wealthy?" Kelvin tainted.
I'D be willing to wager he's

"But that wasn't why l married

"Why not? Pity isn't in you, so

a sudden memory. "And even to-

FACT FIGHTING COMMITTEE?
Citizens Rally To
Charters Aid;
Rap Opponents

The statements Of a Fact Find
ing" committee, which is vigorously
opposing the proposed charter
amendment that will be voted on
by the citizens Of St. Paul on Tues
day, Feb. II, were blasted in sew
eral meetings held in St. Paul since
last Sunday. Rev. Clarence Mel
son, pastor Of the Camphor Me-
mortal Methodist church, in a state
ment to his congregation last Sun
day declared that his wife had
really put the finger on the group
that is opposed to the amendment,
when she exclaimed, while reading
some Of the propaganda that is
being sent out Wholesale by "a So
called Fact Finding Committee"
"this is no fact finding committee;
it is a FACT FIGHTING COMMIT
TEE" The Camphor pastor as
serted that "this group is distort-
ing the truth by evasive and mis-
leading propaganda designed to
confuse the people and thereby de-
feat the amendment"
