"You must understand that 1 think of you constantly," Jimmy was saying, and his voice had a desperate tone. "Lorry, you and why, good grief, Lorry girl, we're like that!" He held two fingers up, side by side. Loraine said nothing. Food on the table went untouched, but she opened her bag for a cigaret.

Jim Carr, who didn't smoke but who usually held a match for her, apparently didn't see the cigaret at all now. He was that intent. "Little girl, I'm as serious about this as possible. I won't have you or anybody else imply that I two- time you! I'm not that kind of a heel. Don't you understand?" Lorry squirted smoke out the side.

The motion screwed up her pretty lips unprettily, and her eyes were narrowed, watching his. "You believe me, don't you, Lorry girl?" Jim begged, low tone. we had everything understood. Didn't we? Didn't we? She finally deigned to speak. "What about this Friday person?" Jimmy was struggling harder than ever.

"I won't belittle Pat. Not in the slightest. Matter of fact, she's swell, but well, look, Lorry, "Then you still want to marry me." "Lorryl Of course!" "All right. Will you? And If so when?" "Why why well, loolc look, you say it!" Jimmy swallowed, and his eyes were wide now. "You name the date yourself! You're the one, not me! Whenever and wherever you say!" He was like a soldier going to do a duty 11 it killed him, and shrewd Loraine Stuart did not miss that fact.

She tamped her cigaret out and said, "Tomorrow at noon. Right here." She nodded. cute outdoor chapel right here at Phoenix Sky Harbor. Where a great many movie start are married after flying over from wood. A Spanish arch, under palm trees and a climbing rose.

Okay, Jimmee?" This had become business-like now. A strictly business contract, arranged by the party of the first part while the second party was willing. "Absolutely!" said Jimmy. "Ab. solutely, Loraine!" PATS breakdown of sobbing passed in a very few minutes.

She wiped her eyes on a huge kerchief, gave it back to Its owner and stammered, "T-thanks, Ed. You are so kind." "Do you good, crying a little," said he. "All right now?" "All right. Only I'm ashamed." "Forget that part. Nobody saw you.

Not even me." "Thanks, Ed." "You wanta eat anything else? Or you wanta go back to that office? You better eat! You got to fly in a sky train at 4 o'clock. That ain't but a few hours." "I'll get a malted milk later. And a sandwich. Everything is so horrible now He turned to follow her gaze. Jimmy and Loraine were coming out on the terrace, toward them.

"It's all right," Ed comforted. "Just don't try to talk for a little while." Loraine, surprisingly to Ed, had all her old verve and sparkle back. She strode toward the canvas swing like a conqueror, like an imperious dress model on a stage, like a woman of absolute purpose and poise. Jim Carr's face was set. "Well," Ed Bryan began, rising, "Well, not 1 o'clock yet, but maybe "Sit down! Do eit down!" Loraine directed them, brightly.

"There may be something you two people want to know!" "Yea'm," Ed agreed, nervously. Neither Jimmy nor Pat spoke. But Loraine now said, "You're both going to be a little surprised, I'm sure. But the truth is, the romantic old southwest has gotten into our bones, in a measure. Jimfny's and mine." "Ma'am?" Ed looked at her.

"Capt. James Carr, S. Army, and Miss Loraine Stuart of New York City and Elmira, wish to announce plans for their wedding, to be held tomorrow at high noon!" IVTOBODY else spoke. Ed and 1 Pat both looked frozen. "We really can't stop and visit just now, children," Loraine went on, triumphantly.

"So much to do, you know. both be there? Tomorrow at noon, right here at Sky Harbor, at that darling little marriage shrine! We'll want Mr. Bryan and Miss Friday by all means, won't we, Jimmy dear?" "Yep," said Jimmy, lips still tight. "Sure." Ed tried to catch his eye, but Jimmy looked past him. Then Loraine led her man away.

They really made a fine-looking couple going down the terrace here; the distinguished young Army aviator and soaring expert, nnd the statuesque, blond girl. When they were out of sight, Ed exhaled again. He turned to Pat Friday. better get back to work," she said, nervously. He took her to Major Halc's office without another word.

People were waiting to see her. Ed went on away, a whipped, angry man. Pat did not go at once to the desk she had borrowed. Rather hastily she went on through to a small anteroom. She just had to have a moment alone! She didn't cry any more.

Not now. Control had to be forced at any cost, because of the afternoon's task before her. But for an ageless minute or so she did think. The old hope within her of course lay completely dead. She had tried everything.

Everything! Kindly Ed Bryan had sought to help her; it just simply hadn't worked. She had tried slaving lor Jimmy. She had tried being honest, sweet, girlish. She had back in sophisticated, and that had been terrible. Today, she had tried a cooing, purring technique which Loraine herself used so effectively on Jimmy Carr.

Nothing had worked. Pat whispered a quick little prayer. "Please take care of Jimmy! Please take care of him, God. Always!" Then she hastened back to her assigned job.

When Cain bid a spade, Sobel decided to have a little fun and made a psychic bid of two hearts, which North promptly doubled.

Cain Jumped to three no trump, which Sobel doubled, and Cain doubled. Now, to complete the story, I should be able to say that Sobel took fie first seven tricks, but that "ain't the way I heerd it." Upon completion of the bidding, East led out of turn! Thus Cain was able to call for a heart lead and cashed the first eleven tricks, making three no trump doubled and redoubled, with two overtricks.

They yield large quantities Of food for the ground sptce they occupy, and surpluses from late crops can to stored for next winter's meala. For Instance, a foot or fOW Will produce three or four number in the average bunch bought at the market.

A 60-foot row of beets, preferably of tht Crosby or Detroit Dark Red varieties, is recommended for small tory gardens. Eight or ten seeds to a foot or row is sufficient, and when the plants are around four Inchei high, thin them to about thret Inches apart. The thinned plants, by the way. will make good greens for table use. A late crop of may be planted about the end of August.

Those left In the garden when the season is over may stored for winter care. Carrots After A single packet of carrot seed will produce enough carrots to go a long way toward providing tha servings of yellow vegetables that every diet should include. Chan- tenay or Nantes are good varieties. Plant the carrot seed a little mora thickly than the or 20 seeds to a foot or row. If you'd like an early dish of carrots from your own garden, maka only a partial thinning as soon as the plants are big enough to handle.

Then make a second thinning when the young carrots are about half an inch in diameter. Prepared as creamed baby carrots, thin- nings will make a succulent dish. Carrots planted late can stay in tha ground until after the first frosts. Then dig and top them for storing. Parsnips occupy no more space than beets Vid carrots.

However, for good development they need soil that is deeply prepared and very rich. Parsnips are a source of thiamine, one of the Important vitamins, and also vitamin Hallow Crown and Guernsey are excellent varieties. In the north, where parsnips arc used mainly as a winter vegetable, they are planted early and given the entire season to develop. In the south, however, two plantings can be made, one in early spring for immediate use and another In August or September when the late summer rains occur. Parsnips are one of the few garden vegetables that can be left in the ground during the winter.

In sections wn re the ground freezes hard, it may be a good plan to dig at least part of them for storage. Salsify Is Hardy Crop Salsify, or "vegetable oyster," as some people know it, Is grown In about the same way as parsnips. Sandwich Island is the leading variety. Salsify can be left in the ground all winter, also. Southern gardeners usually plant turnips Just as soon as they can work the ground, and use the crop before hot summer weather arrives.

Then they plant a late crop in August or September. The young tender tops of this fall crop make just as good greens as the spring crop produced. But with northern gardeners, turnips are a late crop. The seeds usually are sown In July, from the tenth on until the end of the month. The Shogoln or Purple- Top Strap Leaved varieties are popular.

In small gardens, the seed are best planted thinly In drills, with the rows 12 to 18 Inches apart, and covered lightly. Turnips should not be allowed to freeze in the ground or in storage. To store successfully, vegetables should reach full maturity and be free of cuts, bruises, and injuries from insects or diseases. Storage places should be cool and moist, but arranged so there is no danger from freezing, German Valley Club Members Entertained German Valley. 111., March Members of the Birthday club were entertained Wednesday evening at a 8 o'clock dinner at the home of Mrs.
