McClure Newspaper Syndicate (WNU Service.) IHE conditions that brought about the engagement of Mary Estes to Benjamin Parke were the normal unexciting ones of ft certain degree of propinquity, similarity of social standing and a general desirability smiled upon" by taittllles of both parties concerned In the thriving Middle West city where Mary Estes had been born and '"'.'-Mured, Benjamin Parke was regarded U one of the roost promising young business men of the community. When Mary Estes was still attending high Misool and taking the commercial course which was ultimately to pre* pare her for her work as secretary to the richest banker of the town, the Estes people were a highly respectable and conservative family in reduced finances, probably a shade or two higher in the social strata than the Parke family, although Benjamin's father was a dentist of solid standing and good practice The two young people of these respective and respectable families, ID qpite of the disparity of ten years in their ages, were thrown socially together by way of church, entertainment and bridge party. Their ultimate engagement was as normal as Sunrise. A little flurry of anticipatory gossip had, of course, preceded it; its announcement was a matter of local applause; Its consummation looked forward to by a group of friends and relatives who moved interestedly around the nucleus of the happy pair. It was fun to be engaged. It was great fun to be the center of interest, the center of pleasant attention and consideration of the group of people that made up Mary's world. The slightly envious attention of her friends who were not yet engaged, the sisterly acceptance of her aa one of themselves by the gifls who were engaged. The tolerant Interest In. her by those of her friends were newly married. And the affectionate, busied attention from the older women--matrons, spinsters and Widows alike. All of Mary's world paid her the charming tribute that Is the lot oif happy young love. And she found this tribute most flattering, most attractive. Two months after the announcement ~~9t the engagement, Mary Estes re» slgnedher pleasant and lucrative position as secretary to the richest man In town and began preparations for a June wedding. Benjamin Parke, by then sole proprietor of a small but flourishing furniture stere pn High street, was known to be in the market .for an attractive building lot on Ka> street, one of the town's pretty bungalow districts. The friends of Mary began to plan linen showers and small festivities that had to do with the approaching marriage. Benjamin Parke took out a tidy life insurance Itolicy and announced that he was bail ding an ell to his furniture store. It wfis an alliance that promised Well. Mary and Benjamin would be a good, substantial addition to the citi-" •enry of the community; were the kind to foster stability, decency and light living. 4 There was nothing in particular about the engagement of this young pair tr differentiate it from alliances that were constantly being made, and yet it is possible that Mary and Ben represented what in the eyes of the community might be regarded as the Ideal marriage. The ideal marriage that would lead *0 years of happiness, of struggle, of accomplishments. Mistakes, of course. But on the whole the usual happy and successful life in which hardships and pleasures are mingled. That was what made the condition 1 SO harrowing, so terrible, so secretly frightening to Mfffy-Kstes when certain menacing facts began to take on a reality she hfed been struggling against ever since the first few weeks following he'r engagement. Everything was right, everything 'was as it should be. A better, steadier, more considerate boy than Benjamin Parke could not be imagined. Her parents were hap|>y, his parents were happy, and, wkfl a bungalow on Kay street, an old dream of her was about to come true. As Mary confided to her best chum, Alice McMahon, a pretty doll with china-blue eyes, it was a Story-book engagement in its total desirability from every angle. All except one--and that one angle Vary did not begin to admit, even to herself, until weeks after the an•{- nouncement of her engagement Mary was not in love with Benjamin Parke. Strange, how clear the matter ultimately became to her. Not until after a long period of self-hypnosis, did Mary come to realize that/ from the very beginning, she had thrown herself consciously Intd a State of mind about Ben. She Mtd talked herself into a condition of seeming to be ia love with him. The Wish father to the thought, she had deliberately tried to force herself into a state of mind. The engagement to Ben had been the result. It had seemed to her, during those months while the facts of her self-hypnosis still lasted that she had accomplished right and righteousness. And then gradually, and a little horribly, It began to dawn upon her during those festive weeks of linen showers, bridge parties, evenings with Ben over blue prints of their new bungalow, that everything she was tasting was dead sea fruit In the dead of night, Mary wool* wake up with a sense of oppression in her breast, with a dread of to- I morrow, with terror of what she was ; doing. , " Mary did not love Ben. She liked him, she respected him. She evln admired him.- The thought of him as her husband filled her with dread. Sometimes it seemed to Mary that to be free once more, to be free to come and go at her secretarial work, to be the girl once more unhampered and unimpeded by the dread of marriage, was the one state of being that mattered over and above anything that had ever happened. She regarded those of her girl friends who were still outside the pale of matrimony and • still unhampered by ties of engagement with an envy that was.as illogical as It was unlike her. Mary had only one desire in life cow--to be free. To be un-engaged. To see her life stretch before her once more filled with the old..ideaV cf some day meeting the .ultimate ..life com-, panion. . V To be un-engaged was opt of the question. Ben took her so for granted. Her piarents were in their seventh heaven of approval. v-Hls parents made no effort to conceal their pride. The community smiled. Mary was committed. Terror, rebellion, agony, panic rose within her, only to be hidden by the jcalm, demure exterior she showed to the world. The day of her wedding approached .and it seemed to Mary that with it there descended upon her a dread of living that must ultimately annihilate her. She knew that she must not go through with this dishonest < thing of marrying Benjamin Parke. And yet, what way out? What way out? The question beat about in Mary's tortured brain lik$ a great, imprisoned moth. What way out? She turned the question over and over in her hot, tired brain;.. What <k>uld she do? How could she find a way out? What did other girls in the same predicament do? For surely other girls had made her mistake; though they could marry a man and then, suddenly, or gradually, realized that lack of love would make arriage Intolerable.. But there was nothing to do. She couldn't do the only thing possible; tell Benjamin that she didn't love him. It would seem such a simple thing, yet it was fraught with all sorts of impossible complications, it, would ^mean bringing hurt unhappiness to her parents and his parents. She herself would feel that she had tailed--to heir family, to his family--to Benjamin and to her own word. There seemed; to Mary, something dishonorable in breaking her engagement So what way out was there for her? The way out oame in tfj'e form of if brief note delivered to her one morning two weeks before her wedding day. .It rea<tf..V > .( "Dear Mary: Since there# without hurting you, the cruel thin which I am about to say, I shall si it in the shortest way possible.

(Signed) STOCKS GUINEA FIG AID TD SCIENTISTS Of Especial Interest to Live Stock Breeders. - Bringing the Medical Profession Up to Date That the amount now paid by the average family for doctors' bills will be substantially decreased when the medical profession drops its old-fashioned ideas about advertising, and learns to adopt modern merchandising m^tfiods, is the theory advanced by 'Erivwit Klmo Calkins, nationally known rnfr^Hzine writer and advertising man, wrwing In Medical Economics, a business magazine for doctors. : In his article "Doctors Advertise? Why not?" Mr. Calkins gays, "If a program of advertising could be InstU tuted, shared in, and supported by every doctor in the country, not only would the incomes of doctors go up, but the coft of medical attention would go dowd. There are hundreds of thousands who should have a doctor's care who are not getting It, thousands who could have escaped elaborate treatment or operation if taken in time. Doctors should be paid less money but by more people. The entire United States should be under the care of competent medical men. The immense store of medical knowledge now available should be utilized by more people. The way to keep weil Is not through ignorance and luck, but by wise advice and knowledge. * "If people understood what It teeant to keep well all good doctors would be >jasy all the time. There is enough knowledge today of medicine and surgery to greatly Improve the national, health, but much of it is unavailable to large numbers of people, through ignorance, prejudice and financial limitations." .

The "policeman" is poison oak, which is unfamiliar to the average easterner visiting the park. .So many have the' cases of complaint been that the poison oak has been entirely eliminated and weed killer used to prevent its return; (JVtWNd by the United State* I>e|*;llllWH of Agriculture.)--WNC Service. It may be possible some day for the five stock producer to breed his animals in such a way as to speed up the growth of their offspring. Scientists of the United States Department of Agriculture have accomplished this with guinea jpigs and believe the same principles may apply to live stock. Dr. Hugh C. McPhee, geneticist of the bureau of animal industry, and his associates observed that inbreeding and cross-breeding of guipea pigs ex? erted a marked influence on tiie rapidity or slowness of th«? offspring's growth; They are starting new researches to test these scientific principles of inheritance on live stock, especially S'^ine, sheep, and cattle;. If the live stock breeder could influence the rate of growth of his young farm animals as has been done with guinea pigs be would have control of an important element in the cost of production. It is generally accepted that rapid growth is economical growth. * The department scientists ^obtained various results by cross breeding the members of unrelated families of guinea pigs, each of which had been thoroughly Inbred. When both parents were members of lightweight families, the offspring grew faster and larger than either parent at the same age. When one parent was a lightweight and the other a heavyweight the offspring grew more nearly like the heavyweight parent gaining especially fast in case the mother was the heavyweight. The Investigators gained no advantage of growth by crossing two heavyweight families, but did improve the fertility of the offspring. The heaviest family *>f inbred guinea pigs outgrew ail others daring their first four months. LIGHTS • •/ NEW YORK Three Cattle Problems on Feeding Discussed ~ Three questions of great importance to cattle feeders are discussed In a new bulletin just issued by the Minnesota agricultural experiment station. These questions ' Involve the grinding of shelled corn, barley and alfalfa hay for fattening cattle, the feeding of cane molasses to fattening cattle, and the value of peatland hay as roughage for cattle. Among the principal conclusions are the following: When fatteplfig cSttle-are being fed a ration^pfshell£d corn and alfalfa >oth feeds of fair quality, and hogs are following the cattle, no worthwhile advantage is to be gained by grinding either the corn or the alfalfa or by grinding both and mixing before feeding. When a suitable ration of palatable feeds is being fed to fattening cattle, under conditions-prevailing in Minnesota, the use of either small or large amounts of molasses in the ration has little effect upon the daily rate of gain and tends to lower the margin of profit over feed cost rather than to raise it. Timothy or timothy and alslke clover mixed hay grown' on properly fertilized peat soil will be palatable to cattle and show a feeding value equal or superior to similar hay grown on normal upland soiL ' Copies of the bulletin may be had free by-writing the Mailing Room, University Farm, St Paul, and requesting Bulletin 274.

When Burns Mantle, dramatic critic, was a reporter,' his apartment was entered and stripped by thieves. Among others, he told an office boy, who lived in a tough East side 'district. of his loss.

Mr. Mantle said he realized the money was gone, but that he would very much like to recover a mesh bag, which Mrs. Mantle valued greatly. The boy said he felt fairly sure he could recover the bag, If the fellow who took it had not given it to his girl, but when he came to make his report he looked a bit disconsolate "Mr. Mantle," he said, "I sure am awful sorry, but my friendr weren't in your apartment They weren't oot last night, at all." • • • In the days when I was a newlyhatched reporter, 1 was assigned the job of following a visiting Chinese prince everywhere he went.

"Washington, Sept., Financing ol a federal government is one of the major problems facing the next session of Congress. The government must decide whether it Will increase federal taxes in an effort to balance the budget or whether It will run along on borrowed money in the hope that business will start uphill and bring more revenue into the coffers of the treasury. There will be a number of members of Congress iTMhe Senate and House who will oppose an increase in taxes, as neither side will want to take the blame for a increase on the eve of election. ' Many Republican leaders, Including Representative Will Wood of Indiana, j chairman of the House appropriations i comniittee, hive declared themselves] against tax increases and in favor of j short-term credits to cover the situation. On the other hand, a number of Progressives among the Republicans 'and Democrats are u/ging tax in-, creases. There is one thing certain, that the party in power in the end will have to bear the burden if taxes are increased and resentment of the taxpayers is aroused. Selection, of « running mate for President Hoover in 1932 is causing a great deal of speculation.

The other side of the story is that if Mr. Morrow relinquished th$ -senatorship to take the "vice presidency the Republicans would not bi able to hold the New Jersey seat.

We heard some good voices and we heard others who were evidently engaged from a utilitarian viewpoint.! I rather envy the managers here in one jparticular, that is that the pubBcj goes to opera performances more to hear the music than to listen to some; great singer. However, there are two ways of looktag.'at It and with our own1 Insistence on great singing and fine artists, I believe we are doing much fit maintain artistic standards even though we. have to pay for so doing. .The Bayreuth season has been very successful. Every seat was sold i* far as I can hear for almost every performance and the Riiihe held good Itt' Munich. One decided change was .ia the lack of foreign visitors. The hotel* are,not full and business-is poojr in all lines. The Germah government recently put Into effect a restriction on Germans leaving their country for hoU-f days with a charge of one hundred marks per-person, for. the privilege passing the frontiers. This is preventing many Germans from going to other\ countries for their vacations but it has proved a doubie-eoped sword in thirtf the German railways hove Jost a great deal on their through travel. Rekrie-f tlons on the amount of money that can be obtained from hanks have prevented foreign visitors from spending in Germany.
