"In Poston! We weren't in Bos- ton!" "That s ,where your telegram came from.", "Why, it couldn't have been, Joe! We gave him our names on Satur- day at the studio. and he said he's send the telegrams right away. He thought Peter and I were married, or were going to be, anyway—" "And so you ar're," Mrs. Cars- cadden predicted. ominously. Sheila glanced at her, looked pa- tiently at her brother. "So we had to tell him," she ex- plained, "just hew it had happened —that we had liked each other, and that Peter was going to be married on Tuesday—tomorrow." "She'll never marry hits now!" her sister, Angela, said, shaking her head. "She'll have to. Because it's so ridiculous!" Two stubborn spots of color came into Sheila's cheeks. "But listen, Sheila, let's get this straight. Were you married here in New York " "Married!" Joe, you're crazy, or else I'm going crazy; I don't know which! We never thought of get- ting married!" "I guess you and I don't under- stand each other," Joe said slowly, after a long pause. "I guess we're sort of— in the dark. Who sent that?"

Then she read it again, this time including a glance at the date line. "Boston, March 1.5, 12:13 The message was brief — "Peter McCann and I married by justice of the peace this evening," it said. "Very happy, Ietter soon." It was signed "Sheila." "Is that what he sent?" she . whispered. "That came Sunday morning," Joe answered, watching her. "Well, of course, it's a lie, Joe," she said simply. "We never were in Boston. we never were married. You can go to the library and you vei11 see the marks on the roof where we jumped out, I. suppose. They're probably still there in the snow. "You all believed the worst of me,"' Sheila continued, getting no- ticeably angry. "You 'all thought I'd run off and got married by a justice of the peace! All of you, Angela and Ma and even Joe! ' "All right," she stammered, and trembled getting to her feet. "All right, I will run away! You'll never hear of me again! I won't have the police chasing me up and printing stories that I eloped with another girl's fellow—you've ruined me, be- tween you! You'll never see me again !" "Sheila, for heaven's sake!" Joe protested. "Be your age. Getting a telegram like that, what else could Ma think!" "Ma was just as bad as, the rest of you!" Sheila sobbed wildly. "Don't touch me, Joe, don't hold me!

"What's goin on here?" "What's going on," Sheila answer= ed hotly, with a heaving chest, "i '' that my mother and my brother and sister dun't believe me, and I've had about enough of being treated like a thief and a liar and 'a. street-. walker, and I don't know what else besides!" "Well, here—here, don't be in such a hurry!" Frank said, stopping her with a big, gentle hand. "I've got to go!" Sheila told him, breathlessly. "But wait a minute—" "You wouldn't,' she told him."You would get out if your mother and sister and brother all double-cross- ed you!" "Well, 1 never double-crossed you, did I, Sheila?" "Let me go !" the girl said quite angrily. She looked up, and for the first titue in her life she really saw him, a dark, smiling young man, with Irish blue eyes. "No, you never double-crossed the." "Sit down, then," he said. Sheila did not move her eyes. "Be a good girl," Frank urged. Suddenly she sat down. She still watched his 'face expectantly.

Gives Recipe For 1L vitng 100 Years REGINA— "Hard work, a large family and a contented mind" is the magic formula for those anxious to live a century, said Mrs. Henry G. Ziegler, as she celebrated her 100th anniversary here. Born near Waterloo, Ontario, in 1837, Mrs. Ziegler never went to school, but instead was put to work as a weaver when six years old. Aird it was only two years ago that she first hired a maid to help her with` the house work. She has survived all but five of her four sons and five daughters and although she has lost the sight of one eye she is still able to see well with the other, After rearingher chil- dren she adopted three ore. Her only reported .ailment is a slight touch of rheumatism in her hands and knees, but she is confident that this will be gone in the spring and allow her once more to attend to her well -kept flower garden. arried Women May Be Better Teachers Than Single Ones TITTLE ROCK, Ark.—Mrs. F. D. eevelt, stopping here on her "bcleture_ ,tour, asserted amination against women in siness •as "un -Americana" • t, Ec11usion of women, especially teachers, for jobs by some States during the depression, brought this comment from Mrs. Roosevelt in a recent': interview. "Of course this was an emergency measure which I personally hope will not be permanent. d'• "Married women probably make better teachers than single ones, and I personally think that in ex- cluding them, the schools suffer more than>ethe women. `Tor women to work is an indi- vidtial thing, for each woman to de- cide.`` , Their horses should come first; but there should be no dis- crinl%n'ation against them." Big Earners ,Eggs and chickens bring an in- come' of nearly $30,000,000 a year to 'Kentucky farmers and their wives. The value of the 1935 to- bacco crop including all types was only $34,841,000. A bright statistician at the Uni- verity. of Kentucky College of Agri- culture has figured that, if placed end to end, the :eggs produced in Kentucky in a year would reach around the world, and the o a d t o 11,000,- 000 hens on 24,000 farms would form a single row reaching from New York to Los s Angeles. Probably if the average person were asked what he thought brought more money to the .farmers of the • United States than any other single source of income, he would answer coria, or wheat, or hogs, or cotton. The United States Government's figures, however, show that milk brings more cash than anything else. There are today more than 25,000,000 cows -in the United States producing an average of 46,500,000- 000 quarts of milk a year. Sculptor Objects To Hiding Nudity Objects to Female Nudes Being Draped at Alma Mater NEW YORK—Fig leaves for his males, yes,, but nary a wisp will noted Sculptor George Gray Barn- ard tolerate over the charms of his female nudes.

G. McCullagh, of University Department, Speaks On Matrimony Toronto.—The foundation of a hap- py married lift is built on under- standing co-operation and the shar- ing of confidences, D. G. McCullagh of the department of social science, University of Toronto, told the class at Central Y.M.C.A. taking the course in education for marriage and parenthood. Man should realize when contem- plating marriage, if he is not inde- pendently wealthy, that he will have to give up certain things to some extent and he should ask himself whether he is prepared to give these up for love and affection. "If you don't feel that you can pay the price of marriage don't get married," as- serted. Mr. McCullough. Mr. McCullough suggested the in- terested couple should make a study ot one another's expenditures before entering any contract. Mr. McCullough saw no reasons why a bride should not continue go- ing to business if she so wished. "It grieves nae to learn that nieny men refuse to discuss financial. mat- ters with their wives," said Mr. Mc- Cullough. "Many men after the first week of marriage will give their wives $12 or some each sum a week, but , never a word as to what it is for. If you are not going to treat your wife as an equal it is time to snap out of it. 11 you don't have an understan ding in a year or so your wife wil' just tolerate you and you will be bound together by your children." Ile advised that however humble the home was during the first five- year period it was preferable to shar- ing it with in-laws. "A roan likes to be able to some home and take off his coat and sit down and talk alone with his wife without relatives or someone else being present," he? said.

The nudes were hurriedly cover- ed and a headstone cutter called in to• tailor marble trousers for the males and sandstonep anties for the females, Barnard said. "If this is true, 1 must withdraw my gift," Barnard wired Beaumont. "Coverings male statues with hg leaves the usual museum way I heartily agree to, but the, feinale statues must not be touched." The 73 -year-old winner of many international awards said he "quite understood that, male figures exhi- bited in school rooms should be cov- ered with fig leaves so as not to shock the children."

This fantastic feat has become possible, according to scientific evi- dence, in Russia. Here, instead of using electric drills, pitmen are cutting away coal with high-powered water squirts, and p9 , at the Kizel minds in the Northern Urals one man recently cut eleven tons of coal in eight minutes. Discharged under terrific pressure the jet carves up coal with uncanny ease. Two cubic metres of water suffice to remove a ton. There is not the slightest risk of combustion, and the flood danger is eliminated by suction pumps connected with the sur"ace works.
