THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1930 P" ~E NINE LOVE SHY - Li:stallment Thirty-tiwree RENUNCIATION An Entry from James Warren's Diary, Auguet 28 It wo weeks now since 1 saw Jane, and Pm pretty much discour- aged. I saw her the evening after agreed to let me 'tell her I bad a new jo¥ and a raise in salary, but it didn't help any. She wasn't at all impressed with my $45 a week. Not that I blame her, it isn't very much, but lots of girls marry oh that amount and get aleng all right. It seems now that she got some kind of promotion herself; she told Mildred tbout it, and that might have had something to do with her refusal, I fon't know, though. 1 guess she really doesn't love me, Gosh, but 1 hate to write that. I've been looking: back over this book to- aight. 1 began to keep it when I first took the job in the filling sta- tion. Father wanted me to keep a diary because he thought it woul be an interesting record of my exper- iences and he might get some help out of it for the business. But it's all "Janet." "Janet this" and "Janet that," and how she looked and what she said and what she wore. I'll aever dare let father sec it. Nor any me else, for that matter. Let's see. It been two weeks since I wrote in here. I camé home from seeing Janet that night so miserable that I just scrawled a big "damn" over the page for that ' date and haven't touched the old book since. I went to see Mildred the next night and she told me she guessed she had been wrong. Janet probably didn't love me after all or she'd never be able to hold out s» long. That made me mad and tried tqgcall Janet up, but her mother answéred the phone snd. said she was ont. . Trying to Run Away Mildred wanted me to ask father to let me tell her the truth, but the more 1 thought of it the more 1 de- cided that if she didn't love me for myself 1 didn't want her. I have some pride, too, and as long as I've posed this far as a poor young working man I'll keep it up to end of the chapter. I talked with Westlake a couple of nights later and he doesn't agree with Mildred. He thinks Janet is in lave with me. 1 suppose he thinks she'd never have turned him down. if she hadn't been in love with me. That's a dirty thing for me to write about him, for he's really a ince, and Mildred's a lucky girl never did like Duncan. I've tried to get hold of Janet at least thirty times but she keeps slip- ping away from me. 1 planned once to meet her when she got off the sub- way, but. she just stopped and. shook hands with me like I was an old ac- quaintance and hurried on without waiting to: talk. I was dumfounded. She acted like she was (Tying ta run away from me. I thought that might be a good sign, so, 1 asked Mildred + 'about it, SEI i But Mildred's so absorbed in her . own, plans she hasn't much time for me. /Westlake's business took longer "thin he ht and they're not goifig to be married until the 1sf of October. Mildred's closing the apartment becdiisc they are going to stay abroad a year. Lucky devils. I think now Jl wait until after their wedding then I'll just disappear from: this world I've been living in withdut telling any one who I really am. but I'd rather not. I'think I'll just go dbroad * for the . winter, maybe » meet Mildred and John on the Riviera and laze around until I get out of my present habit of jumping up at 6:30 in the morning. I suppose some day J'll be able to think of Janet without that queer sinking feeling in my heart. Mildred gave me the portrait of her and 1 took it to show Father. He looked at it a long time and he said, "Splen- did girl, Jimmy, She'll come around. He seemed to think she really © would and while I was with him I + shared his hope, but after I. got away . I called myself a damn fool. Any way, 1 have the picture and I'll al- ways have my memories of this time, the strangest time in my life. Janet came to Mildred's party the night before Westlake went away and she . was the sweetest thing in that Qua- . ker dress of Mother's that I've ever {. seén. © guess she knew I did, because she wouldn't keep it on, Said she, was afraid of spilling something on it.

Not that it would have dotie me any good, 1 suppose. him. Mildred wants me to tell Janet; Just be patient.' I wanted to eat her up. IT By Barvara Webb Well, it's been an interesting sum- mer, Jf only I didn't have this heartache. 1 can understand why men take to dtink after a disappoint- ment of this kind. It's something you can't escape from, Mildred says I'll forget it when I go abroad and have a change of scenery, but 1 don't think so. Somehow I feel that Janet is the only girl I'll ever really love. She's so sweet, so dainty, so lovely. 1 love thé way she walks the way she talks and the way she car- 'ries her head and the cldthes she wears, I love everything about her. She's the only girl in the world for me--there I go raving again, But she's all of those things and more, And she can't sce me at all, Pm be- ginning to believe that it wouldn't make any difference to much money I had. She just doesn't love me, that's all. But oh! Lord, if I ever hear of her marrying any one else<l'd go crazy, 1 think, Soll, there's no use in my eating my heart out for something 1 can't have and I'm preity well con vinced now that she won't marry me, doesn't love me, and never has. I'll tell her d-bye in a couple of weeks, tell her I'm going to some other State to work and just go out of her life completely no exchanging of ,addresses or writing. letters or anything like that. If I can't have all of her I don't want her for my friend, I want her for my wife-- "I'll Have to Go Away" Better get off that subject. It hurts too much. Let's se¢, what else is the-: to write? Haven't seen any- thing of Adelaide for a long time. Her parents moved away very sud- denly and when 1 asked Janet about them that time 1 met her on the street slic was very vague. My guess is that Adelaide will drift into the underworld. Heaven knows she'll have plenty of chances with all of Butch's friends to show her the way. Queer how I always liked that chap, something real about him and he got his woman after all, which is more than I'm able to do, There I go, no matter what I write about I come back to Janet. All roads lead to Rome. No, I can't stand it. I'll have to go abvay. When 1 think that by just stepping out of my room 1 can tell her on the tele- phone and hear her say in a frosty little voice: "Not tonight, Jimmy, I'm too tired," or something like that, I just go crazy. 1 guess I won't write any more in this diary, I'll put it away and when I'm an old man I'll take it out and live these summer days over again. They've been the most beautiful days of my life, because I knew Janet in them, They've been the saddest be- cause I lost her in them, I'll just write once more that I am going away. I love Janet--I could write that forever. I love her and I'm going to go away. So the last words I'll write in here will be these, "Good-by, Janet, my darling, I love you.

The food riots in Madrid followed yesterday's demonstrations of the jobless who marched to the royal palace demanding work. The riots were in the outskirts of the city, where the demonstrators broke into grocery stores and smashed shop windows to obtain food. A number of heads were bruised before the demonstrations were broken up. Well-informed circles believe the Government will soon become much more severe or will plan to return Spain to another dictatorship. These sources say that General Berenguer, who first planned' to conduct elec tions and restore Parliament, is dis- appointed by the disturbances. They say they would not be surprised if soon Berenguer himself, with the approval of the King, would decide that Spain needed another dictator- ship and would proceed by pre-ar- rangement to have another strong general repeat Primo's coup and be- come dictator, RADIO GUIDES PLANES WITH NEW Canada Leads World in De- velopment of Radio Di- rection Finder (By Canadi Press Lesscd Wire) Circles in London are keenly specu- lating a8 to who wiil succeed Hon, P.O.

The Post adds, "At one time it was considered in Canada that Mr, Larkin's successor would almost centainly be Sir Campbell Stuart, Canada's representative on the Im- rial Cable Conference, The late gh comm: er We une /derstand, favored 'this 'sppoint- | ment." 52 King St. E. 71.921 nm ood a ik a Ottawa, Ont, Feb. 17.--Canada's mail pilots will. be guided on thei routes by a visual indicator on the instrument board.

It 1s particularly noticeable that freight automobiles far out-wgigh in number the passenger cars imported from the Qld Country.

Orie of the most interesting state- nients-made by Captain Duckett was that under certain conditions the use of the War Department rear sus- pension has now been extended to include manufacturers in Canada, and other parts of the Empire. This is key to the successful performance of the six-wheeler through Canadian mud, sand and clay and also in snow drifts. It is the feature which has 'sold' the British vehicle in various its use rapidly t throughout India, Egypt, South frica and Persia, tlot will be relieved of tively few, and also in Europe and to stra of listening constantly to| America where roads signals which is particularly fatigu- | most part géod. | as is the case during bad weather | British Heed ac and magnetic interference. | The mere throwing of a switch at | ae beacon transmitting station wil! countries where 'foads are compara- are for the The speaker emphasized that the ar Department wished to create a motor transport vehicle which would combine speed with cross-country performance. In the vight six-wheeler these objectives were 'attained--speed, equal to the four-wheeled usual type and cross- country performatice equal, if not superior, to many of the semi-track or caterpillar types of vehicles which are at present performing Canada's difficult transportation jobs in min- ing, water power development and forestry operations. _Six-wheelers are as yet a rare sight in Canada. Then opportunity for manufacturing and placing in service this type of vehicle would ap- pear to be a valuable one for Cane adian automobile manufacturers. Captain Duckett stated that the Bri. tish manufacturer failed to realize the great initial advantage he held in Canada and that, if he were alive to the potentialities, this market could be loited with considerabl success, - In various other countries the British war Department's ap- proved type of six-wheeler is being put to commercial use in connection with railr and road construction as feeders to railways in districts where roads do not exist, for logging in virgin country and for general casts, Further refinements in the farm worl 1 rnership projects handled under for the |the Emblem For Alberta New Brunswick Power Com-; Edmonton.--If proposals cone nThen ntaking over of {tained in a bil lintroduced by Hon. | Perren Baker are agreed to be the Provincial Legislature the wild rose ssionn.n > plant by the city is a step to- | ward the extension of electric CUM | will henceforth be the Provincial rent generated under the Power |fioral emblem of the Province of " 1 ' mmission to the Fredericton dis-| Alberta.
