THURSDAY, MARCH 19, 1931 Helen Heather was young and ittractive--and in love. As she 'oame down the steps of the bank ih the little Pennaylvania town of Kingsway, all the world was rosy 18 her eyes. Helen was not only a tynist in the bank, but \-as social secre Aary to her corr , Nina Higgine- #0... She lived with Nina, in one the oldest, finest houses in ngsway.

He was chief o.mera- man for the young people of the town. Helen waited for him at Ni-~'s, but instead of Tommy, Btls Kingsway appeared-- one of the ""ingsways for Thom the town was named. Ethan had been jilted by Nina for the rich Mr. Higginson, but le still called at Nina's home. This time it was to tell her that he must decline a @' er Anvitation as he' was going to Europe. . Helen took the message, but not until she had done her best to shock the handsome cavalier- like Ethan, leaves, and frankly says he hates Ethan, Does Tommy eense a possible rival in the descend. ant of the cavallers? Nina tells Helen that Ronny, Nina's stepson, is making a bad £0 at college, Tommy arrives to take Helen to an amateur production which he is filming, Doris Milliken, during the film production, tells Helen that she and Ronny are engaged. Just before Helen retires, late at night, Ronny comes home. INSTALLMENT IV. She ran forward and kissed him, sisterly fashion. She had known him and been sorry for him since he was a boy of fourteen, reluct- antly brought down by Nina along with ner husband to visit the Heathers in Baltimore. He was hollow-eyed, and grimy above his thin-cheeked pallor, "I hopped a freight," said Ronny {a explanation. "You would!" said Helen. She #2ve him a little affectionate shake. "What was the matter, sent all your allowance to Soviet Russia?" "Well," said Ronny, sitting down ning to expound,, "this is what hap- pened : "Ronny, you haven't had a bite to eat, I know by the way you look, Come Inside and wash your face and tell me." : She slipped in her latchkey, pull- ed on the light and they went to ihe kitchen. Ronny splashed at the sink gratefully, while Helen, on her knees by the refrigerator, pulled out eggs and butter and fruit ana cold vegetables, He buried his face in Tacy's immaculate roller-tcwe!l and watched Helen hungry-eyed, as she heated peas and cauliflower in two small saucepans, set eggs in a | third pan to scramble, and got ont Bo china and silver and rolls and bunt- | ter. He dropped down at the en- ameled white kitchen table waiting till she should have everything ready. She poured out two lasses of milk and sat down across from him with her own. He dived into his/food with a hungry boys avidity, Finally he look up, having eaten every scrap of food on the table, "I am in trouble, Helen," he ad- mitted, "You're being awfully de- eent.'" "Well, dear, T can't register snr- hour of the night. Something hinted as much to me. "Well, you knew I was condi- foto making it at summer school." "You had to make it up." "Nina could perfectly well have up * thing to keep me off the ganss." "But anyway she didn't. And you way, Ronny, last time you had a tutor here you would not----" "He was an ass," said Ronny. 'hundred years old." "Ronny, I don't know about you, but my system requires sleep at ; t. Do hurry up and tell me." Ronny pushed back his kitchen chair, rose and began to patrol the "Do you know what education is today? A system of cliches, taught 'of narrow, stpid yes-men." "But you have to graduate," sald Belen, being of the frankly ex- fent sex. "Wouldn't you study at summer school. "Certainly--some of the subjects. there was one professor-----" 'The old story.

"But why haven't you any mon ey?" A | Von, 1 spent it," said Ronny, largely. 'As a matter of fact, I was "A radical one, of course." "Naturally." Helen said no more. He had been supporting his little magazine in- stead of buying himself clothes-- or, by the look of him, sufficient food. "The thing I feel the worst a- bout is that Flame is discontinued," said Ronny sadly, "It was a wond- erful magazine." "Oh, never mind that-----can yo go back to college?" : "No, I can't and what's more I won't," said Ronny. 'Nina ought to give me enough money to ve on till I'm twenty-five and it comes to me." Helen knew it would only start a long argument to eay anything a- bout the fact that this was capital- ism, She wondered {2 he really was a good poet. If he was, of course, all this sort of thing was probably worth the bother. She also wond- ered if she had better speak or Doris. And oh, how fundamentally she wanted to get to bed!! She rose, yawning. He was so hard te help. And yet he had some- thing very sweet and innocent about him. "Well, I think I'l go to bed now, Ronny. T suppose I'll be up before you are (Ronny was a late sleeper) | and if you like I'll speak to Nina! about your being here." As she passed him, where he stood, drawn to his full height, with his hair tossed and a pride in the rights of man written all over him, some- thing fn her aspect struck through even his young self-absorption, Her brown-gold eyes were shadowed, and her shoulders dropped a little as she smiled at him, tiredly. Her bright coloring was dimmed by fa- tigue. Even her dress was crumpl- ed where she had knelt and stoop- od, preparing him his midnight meal, He threw a brotherly arm a- round her. "Helen, you're a brick, he said, and kisses her, She kissed him back. She felt a thousand years his senior. "That's all right," she sald, They started apart, staring, at the sound of clicking heels Nina, ifn the doorway, a tall orange candlestick in her hand, a yellow chiffon wrap caught around her, was staring at them. \ "Well, said Nina. "A little on the flirtatious side, my dear!" Nina was not shocked. She was indeed, laughing. Then as Helen moved aside, she saw who it was, her ex- pression changed to the one of weary annoyance that Ronny at nis worst caused her. "Did you have to do all this just to come home and make love " she demanded 1npa- "I wasn't making love to Hel- en," he answered her with the sul- lenness he always evoked, "I don't mind if Helen doesn't ~and Tommy doesn't.

"How olse do you suppose they knew that you had spent all you had and pawned your things?" her calm was In her struggles with "Oh, Ronny!" "I did," said Ronny still smart ing from his disillusion. "I'm proud of it." f "You're hopeless. You'd better go to bed. But I'll tell you now, so as to prevent you from worrying me to-morrow, when I have a very full day and need all my strength, that from now on until you tell Dr. John- son everything he wants to know, and apologize to him, I shall not give you your allowance."

Britain Has More Millionaires Than America, Statistics Show London.--There are a greaterers., Solly owns a well known race number of individual fortunes, and some of these are greater in extent, in Great Britain than in America. Official figures for the year ending March 29, 1929, showed that there were between 500 and 600 people in Great Brit- ain who ranked as millionaires and that means "pounds," not '"dol- lars." They include the Duke of Westminster, who probably ranks in the $100,000,000 class. His wealth dates back to the days of Queen Bess. Sir John Ellerman, shipowner and self-made man, is in the same clags. The Joel brothers come in the next class, of $75,000,000 own- ing stable, a mansion, a swime ming pool and numerous works of art, Lord Derby, owner of $25, 000,000 is well known in racing circles all over the world, The popularity of porter has been largely responsible for the $100, 000,000 of Lord Iveagh. Lord Vestey is another multi-million- aire of note, his money made in cold storage and shipping, Lord Bearsted inherited over $20,000, 000 and has greatly increased it. Two of the most noted million aires, Lord Melchett and Lord Dewar died during the year, ESTABLISHED 1859 Butter A Silverbrook Creamery BETTER SORT Find No Profit In War (Stratford Beacon-Herald) On February 28 veterans of the world war in United States began to line up for the cashing of their war certificates. Congress had passed the bill; so had the Sen- ate, and the President vetoed it. Then it was again passed and he- came law, and by its terms the vet- erans could draw up to 50 per cent. of the face value of their war certificates. Looking over reports from var- fous places in United States we find that the 'line-up started in the early hours of the morning. Figures show veterans in line oun the first day as follows: New York Chicago St. Louis 7,000 Detroit 8,000 Apart from an occasional cone vention, where delegates go to rep- resent groups of war veterans, this was one of the first mass meetings of soldiers. It gave an opportun- ity to see how they had been been getting along, and perhaps an ink- Growing Deaf With Head Noises?

In the New York Journal we read that "these men were a tat- tered, needy lot; their clothes were bursting at the seams, their | hats were dirty and ripped; thelr trousers bagged at the knees, and their shoes bore the marks of many a day tramping for work whieh was not to be had." In Philadelphia it is recorded by a writer that 'some who left legs In ¥rance came on crutches. Others hobbled up in old clothes, vietims of unemployment, One or two drove up in expensive cars." In Baltimore the line-up began before dawn, and a reporter who was assigned to the line, write that "Many of them talked about what hey inended o doeaoinshrdlucmfwy they intended to do with the money, Some of them indicated that they would buy clothes; oth- ers sald that stocking up the pan- try would be their first considera tion." A newspaper reported fn St. Louis says he talked to a score of men as they stood in line, and on- ly one of them had a job; he was a salesman working on a commis- sion. He found that the men there were going to buy something to eat and try to pay off their debts. In all, it does not appear that the soldiers have done well at all since they enlisted for service. All the enthusiasm that was present when they enlisted for service failed to turn into cold fact when they came home. The billions of dollars which United States is ecol- lecting in war debts have meant little or nothing at all to them; they have had to shift for them- selves and they have had to shift for themselves and they bave found the going rather hard. United States soldiers have pro- bably learned that cheers and pro- mises during the days of enmlist- ment when war fever has gripped the popular imagination, mean nothing at all, MANY SECTIONS OF OSHAWA NOT SERVED WITH GAS (Continued from page 1) not served, although many houses have been erected on it.
