p. p. is CHAPTER XII Molly's jouncing gait had an al most hypnotic effect It was hard to keep the eye from resting on some shining buckle or patent- leather trimming of the harness which rose and fell with her pace. Parris began to feel sleepy. After a while he began to see behind his half-closed lids something like a luminous thread stretching on and on ahead of them.

It moved and whined faintly, and little figures ran and danced along the silvery transparent line. They were like the people he knew: Drake, himself, Louise Gordon, Cassandra, and over and over again tiny images of Renee, like a long screen of linked paper dolls. The figures fell about and postured and grimaced. They seemed not to like him. He wanted to call out to them, but they seemed very far away.

'Hey, tit up." Drake pushed him with his elbow. "Darned if you didn't go to sleep." "11 guess I did. I was even dreaming." I guess you and me had better stick together a little bit, Parris. Good gosh, you got to have somebody." "We will; you bet." "1 want to get married and all that kind of thing some day, but I want to have all the good time I can first But well, you get kind of tired even having a good time." 'I expect so." Parris slipped back intonn awkward feeling of childish inexperience again. He didn't know what to say exactly.

'Madison Geer and all that crowd, Jesse Alexander and Babe Fuller and the rest of 'em, get drunk a lot "Gee, you know I never did have a drink." "Well, no use taking one either. kid. I expect to stay off drinking, Don't do you any good." Parris nodded and tried to look judicious. "Um, yes, I expect so." Drake chuckled. "You sounded just like a doctor then.

You know, I expect you 11 be a good doctor, Wouldn't surprise me at all." "Well, darn your old skin. I expect to be." Drake looked very serious. "You know, Parris, I wouldn't tell this to another soul on earth, 'cause I know everybody thinks I'm kind of wild and that I am around an awful lot, and that I ain't steady. But I'm going to surprise some people around this old town. I'm going to settle down- hard when I do settle, and," he cut a quick sidewise look at Parris, "I'm going to make Louise proud of me." Is she in love with you, too? Now.

I mean. "I don't know. can't tell anything about Louise." "Well, of course she is. If she wasn't I expect you'd know that a hurry." Drake blinked at this unex pected perspicacity. "Say, I guess that's right never thought about that.

Gee get up there, Molly. We don't want to spend our lives out here no, sir, I never thought of that! How d'you happen to think about it?" Parris waved his hand with wise little Eesture of deprecation. It implied a wide knowledge of the ways of women of which this was the merest sample. "Parris, vou know Preston Hill out there west of town?" "Yes. of course.

Why?" "I want to buv it" "Good eracious. Drake! What for? It's just a hUL" "Kings Rov has got to grow, hasn't it? Thats the best direc tion for it to go. Wouldn't that be a good place to build houses you know, looking down across the creek there, and away out over the country?" Parris was mightily impressed. "Why, that's wonderful! You'd make a lot of money, wouldn't vou. and be rich?" His voice sounded a little wistful.

"Well, doctors make a pile of money. Wouldn't it be the darnd-est thing if we, you and me, could build houses for ourselves out there, right next to each other?" "Listen, Drake" Parris wriggled about and pulled one foot under him. He rested one arm along the back of the buggy seat and gesticulated in his old foreign fashion with the other. The talk ran on into details. It seemed to them at that moment that life was clear and straight ahead of them and pleasant They would do this, or that, thus or so.

They wondered once or twice why older people always spoke of the difficulties of life. But, of course, in olden times everything- was different. There really wasn't much use in paying attention to old people. They didn't understand that the world had changed now, and that things vrere easier and simpler. All of the' next day, and the next, Parris went about in a pleasantly unthinking haze of mind.

That one afternoon with Drake had relieved the whole feeling of loneliness which had weighed on him for weeks. But he did not want to see him not just now. He could talk to Drake about his work, his hopes and plans, and about a good many of his everyday troubles. But at this moment he longed for someone who spoke the language of another side of his personality. MEDICATED FOR tin III mv t.

I I fr liPJIii had said last week about intuition. Place strong reliance on it if you have a mind that works clearly and well on the now what was it he said? oh, yes the normal planes of consciousness. People thought Drake was wild. As happened so often, Parris' in tuition said no to everything peo ple thought It had been that way with Tom Carr and crazy Lucy. He wondered if his intuition was reliable Just because people were on different roads, couldn't they still understand each other? After supper he remembered his notebooks.

He had left them in Dr. Tower's study the afternoon he began his unorthodox holiday. He would have to walk into town for them. It was quite dark when heJ reached Cherry Street As he was about to step onto the low porch floor, he saw to his surprise that it was Cassandra and not Dr. Tower who sat tn the deep chair under the green-shaded light Hello, Cassandra.

It me Parris. Didn't want to scare you." "Why, hello." She arose and dropped her book face down in the chair. "Come in?" The words were distinctly question, and not invita-tion. "Well, I I just came after my notebooks. I left them here Tuesday." Parris dropped his cap and coat on a chair.

Ive been playing hookey." "From father?" "No. He put me up to it Said I needed to rest." "He's in St. Louis." "Sure enough? When did he go?" "He said tell you when you came back he'd be ready to see you on Wednesday." "Wednesday. Oh. All right." Parris felt himself grow a little ill at ease under her steady scrutiny.

He really hadn't had a good look at her for a long time, and he had forgotten how lovely she was. He felt his heart beat a little faster and his breath come quick and short. "Well, I guess I'll hurry on." "Why?" Her long green eyes were steady now. They looked straight at him. He replaced the notebooks and looked at her in some surprise.

"Sit down. No, over here on the couch. It's comfortable." She sat down and pulled a pillow behind her head. She seemed perfectly at ease now. "I why, do you know, Cassie, I haven't seen you to talk to you, really, in a long, long time?" She cut in suddenly.

"It will probably be the only time." He flushed. "Well why, Cassie?" "I can't see anyone. You don't have to ask questions to understand that, do you?" "Well my goodness, Cassie, I don't know. I guess maybe I want to ask you why, but if you don't want to tell me, or don't want to see me any more "I said I couldn't see anyone, He faced her squarely. "Your father won't let you?" "I told you you didn't have to ask questions.

"Oh. All right" "Don't get your feelings hurt, Let's just talk." "All right. What about?" She laughed simply and nat urally. Some severe disappeared with it. "Oh, anything.

Tell me what you do all the time." They talked a little feverishly, and a little jerkily. One moment she seemed to be as he always remembered her, the next she seemed strange and different She seemed then to look at him from a distance exactly the way older people sometimes did. A flick of lightning threw her face into high relief and intensified the lambent green of her eyes. My goodness, but you are pretty, Cassandra!" She smiled a thin little smile. "Honest you are you're prettier than you ever have been, and you ah'iys were the prettiest girl in this town." She leaned forward and gave his wrist a quick squeeze, "Thank you.

Mr. Mitchell." Her hand lin gered for a moment on his, and he leaned over and kissed it. "Silly!" her voice trailed over the word ever so slightly. Again a painful excitement clutched at his throat Outside a few large drops of rain spattered against the porch floor. "I I guess I'd better go." "Oh, I'm sorry." She stood up, so close that he felt a little wave of warmth from her.

Without hes itation he put his arms around her and kissed her. He felt her lips part slowly under his own as she crushed herself against him. There was another flash of lightning and an instant roll of heavy thunder. She twisted herself free and sat down abruptly, "I've wanted you to do that," she said huskily. "And I've wanted to." Tt gets lonely seeing no one "Oh, Cassie!" He wanted to ask her why her father permitted her no friendV why he couldn't be with her often.

She shook her head, anticipating his question. "No, Parris. But I want to be with you whenever I may. Just to talk. Will you stay and talk now?"

Don you think that under these circumstances, since we love each other so deeply, that we should be justified in marrying with, or without, their consent? Young Man. ANSWER: I 'do. I don't think that the happiness of two worthy young people should be sacrificed to the selfishness of a possessive mother. I have known of more than one case in which a mother, who could not bear to be parted from her darling, forced her daughter by Iter tears and entreaties and even her threats of suicide to give. up the fine young man to whom she was engaged, although the mother knew that she was breaking the girl's heart and dooming her to old maiden hood and a We of poverty and fhard work.

I believe in children showing their parents every duty and consideration, but there is neither sense nor merit in children sacrificing themselves to parents who show themselves nothing but selfish tryrants.

Price Administrator Leon Hender-son tonight named as defense ren tal areas 20 communities in 13 States in which rents must be lowered to "proper levels within 60 days or the government will move in to do the job." The listed areas take in 8.000,-000 persons, including Detroit and Cleveland, the largest cities named. Henderson "recommended" that rents be cut back to the levels of April 1, 1941, in some of the cities, but named January or July, 1941, in others. More than 100 areas in addition to those named are in line for similar rent regulation, the price administrator disclosed. In a statement condemning "rent-gouging" and "profiteering," Henderson said he would strike hard and rapidly "to correct the rent situation" in these additional areas soon. Under the price control act the OPA administrator is required to give State and local authorities 60 days to bring rents into line.
