'UESDAY, JULY 8,1934 POLICE FLAYED BY BOARD $chool Directors Decide To Have Night Watchman City police department came in for a scorching yesterday afternoon when members of the school board bemoaned the number of times, recently, that local school buildings have been entered by sneak-thieves. One of the school directors told the board at its special session that he re- eently telephoned police headquarters an intruder was seen in LaPayette junior high school, but that no officer appeared on the scene. Director J. K. Spurgeon recited the of thieves entering the Senior nigh school, Berkeley school and the Park building, during the past three days.

At another instance, a robber 'secured band instruments and other articles from Senior high. The board, yesterday, decided to engage a special night watchman to visit all buildings at night. President D. E. Bane of the board could not understand why "police can't go out and investigate reports of the school buildings being entered." Member McClelland Leonard said he jb.ad personally notified the police of case, which was not investigated, he asserted.

Madeline was waiting at the door oJ her dressing Undo? the. eyes black. "Say, the matter with you?" she began. Con caught her wrist, jerked the door open with his other hand and almost flung her Into the room. The two other women who shared the dressing- room stared at him In amazement "Get out," he told them.

Both left quickly, without a word. Occasional Quarrels and even fights were to be expected between married couples and Con was notoriously temperamental. Alone with Madeline, Con became deadly calm. A smile that distorted his features, robbing them ot all attractiveness, spread over his face. "So Donna Is to be married?" he drawled.

Why-- why, yes. I told you that a long time ago." "Yes, you told me! You told me before she had even thought such a thing. Let's cee how many months ago was It? Long before you trapped me "Don't you say I trapped youl" Madeline rasped. "Why not? You knew that if I hadn't thought Donna was going to marry that rube cousin of yours I wouldn't have married So you lied. You told me eshe'd written you that they were engaged-- Tot Just said they're "going to be married," she broke In.

"I don't know what you're talking about! Now you say I lied "I'm talking this." Con extracted the letter from his pocket and flung It at her. "Oh, I read It! If you can convince me that Donna Gabriel ever. wrote you she was going to be married before this letter came yon can convince me the king of England! Good God, you women are more than tlgenl i sup- ahe'a marrying him cause you married TUTADBLINB burst Into hysterical lf laughter. "Of all the conceit! Don't tcU me you etlll bellere Donna would erer hare had 7011! She couldn't eee jrou for dust at any time, and 1 knew It! Yea, I lied when said they were going to be married. Why not? I waa fool enough to think that ff yon knew you could never have her you'd snap out of It and begin to get something out life--" "With you? 0 "Yea, with me.

It's only your darned pride and conceit eating you now. That's all it was between you and Donna--and don't tell me any different Tre lived with you long enough to know you'll never love any one but yourself. The wanted Donna you yoo couldn't have her. I wish to God she'd married you! I don't want yon. Not any more!" She dropped into a chair, laid her head on the shelf before the mirror and burst into angry tears.

Tears were a defense Con could not combat He paced the little room, whistled disconsolately and then swung on his heels and left Because the scene stin rankled and because both were stubborn, the strained situation continued. Con had never known humility. Never in his life had he, admitted himself in the wrong. The overtures toward reconciliation would have to come from Madeline, and Madeline, in the throes of Jealousy, convinced herself that she hated Con and did not If they never spoke again. Consequently tie breach widened.

Con treated Madeline with a supercilious courtesy that Infuriated her and fanned to a higher flame her hatred and jealousy. Probably du? Ing when she completely Ignored him he came nearer to loving her than at any other time. Lucy, the -Bengal, was the. only one of his beasts Con really cared for. Lucy, could not be tamed, AND It was because he'had met match In this Jungle cat that Con loved her.

"Better watch "out," Renfroe warned. don't have to tell you there are some cats you can't train. That beast is a devil. You'll never lick her." "I will If it's the last thing I do! Ill make her crawl on her belly and like It" If Madeline had learned a lesaon from the Bengal tiger she might have won Con's love. If she had continued to be aloof, cold and defiant he would In time have forgiven what she had-done and found himself.

But Madeline was a woman IE love. After- a week's coolness, when she alternated" between hating Con and aching for him, she smothered her pride and begged Ms forgiveness. "It-was because I loved you," she sobbed. "I know it was a rotten thing to do but I was just'crazy and 'I knew Donna would never marry you. Fm telling you the truth, UH God's truth! Donna had crush on Bill Slddal the first tima she went to rlsit my grandfather and I knew If she and Bill thrown together they'd get married, cant go on like this! Just killing me to have yon treat this 1 fuppose It was your Idea to have Donna go to the farm after the accident?" "Well, ft was a lot better than having her etay In a hospital and It saved expense-- "And threw her and your pro- cloua cousin together! Just what does yon? grandfather think of Donna'g sponging on him this "Why, he thinks she Is me-- er-- he loves her because--" "I heard you the first time.

0 "You think she'd tell your know she would." "If she does, for-your own protection, be sure to keep the letter." OntQ this conversation Madeline had given little thought to what her grandfather possessed. Now the farm and livestock and the Siddal rbank account became ol vast Importance as she realized that Con considered her an heiress. After. Madeline had written to Donna, first wishing her happiness, then tactfully Inquiring what the situation would be if Grandfather Siddal should die, she began to wonder If Con were not a better Judge of character than herself.
