Cohyictediof. a. felony by a jury of his peers, Milton H. "Welling, secretary of state, remains in office while the attor-: attor-: neyt general checks the statutes to determine if a conflict in the state laws will make it possible for him to retain his v position until the supreme court can pass on his appeal. . it Governor Henry H. Blood, loath to overstep the bounds - of his authority, declares the status of Welling is a legal . question and not a matter of policy. One section of the tftarr statutes provides that a state office becomes automatically auto-matically vacant whenever an officer is convicted a a felony. ) Another section, added by a later session of the legislature, provides that the judgment of conviction may be stayed pending an appeal to the supreme court. Under this kind of reasoning, he, really isn't convicted until the supreme pcqurt has acted on his appeal, in spite of the fact that he has been found guilty by a jury of the offense charged, that ot presenting to the state board of examiners a false claim by which the state was defrauded of $100. This is no time for Mr. Welling to stand on technicalities. technicali-ties. It would be infinitely better taste for him to gracious-- gracious-- ly step out of .his office, permitting the governor to appoint his successor at once. There is no question about the fairness fair-ness of his trial; he was ably and courageously defended, and every privilege belonging to an accused man was his. " His conviction has rendered him unworthy to remain any longer as the custodian of a public trust. The people have tost confidence in him. He should vacate his office forthwith, instead of trying to stand on flimsy technicalities technicali-ties of law. Early "Fourth" Casualty It isn't often that a big league basball star can offer an object lesson in favor of a safe and sane Fourth of July. But Earl Averill, star outfielder for the Cleveland Indians, seems to have done just that. Averill was setting off big firecrackers for his children ,the other day. One of them failed to go off, and he picked :it up to relight it. Then, with the perversity occasionally pxhibited by fireworks, it exploded and mangled his hand bo badly that it almost ended his baseball career. : It's a timely warning for children. Fireworks are dan- gerous, and a moment's lack of care can bring painful, crippling crip-pling injury. The Fourth will be safe and sane enough if children and adults alikw keep constantly in mind the necessity neces-sity for caution. v.

Swimming Pool Opening Opposed I see where some of our public spirited citizens are going to try to open up the old swimming pool in the high school. The city dads haven't the money to renovate the one at North park and as they intend to make a new one next year and as we have the ' o!e swimmin hole" at the river as well as resorts all around, and only two more months ot swimming weather, and also, we have the Pioneer park ditch for the kiddies, why go to the trouble and expense opening up the high school nool which never should have been put there in the fiwe4: place. It seems to me, if the city has any money or water to spare, we better take the advice of "Bill the Barber" and put it on the streets to keep down the dust. JOSEPH H. TAYLOR.

Stamm of the forest service has come to the aid of the wood workers with a new process for the treatment of wood which makes it shrinkproof. A boon, indeed, to the boat builders and cabinet makers. Wax is the thing, used with such effectiveness. . This idea ' is not new, for wax has been used for years in an effort to preserve wood. However, How-ever, the processes used could not seal all the pores into which water would seep, and consequently, conse-quently, the results were never very satisfactory. Dr. Sutanm has devised a new process by which 4iis "cellosolve." as he calls his compound, is injected in-jected into the wood. Injected even into green wood, it forces 7-2. T. M. RC. U. S. PAT.

Merry-makers at Provo's gigantic gig-antic Fourth' of 'July celebration will have plenty of opportunity to top off July 3 and July 4 with an evening of dancing. Four special American Legion Frolics are prepared especially for the celebration, two on July 3 and two on July 4. The July 3 dances will begin at 9:30; the starting time is 10 on July 4. The dance committee, headed by Dr. Frank T. Reynolds, is sparing no effort to provide the finest dances of the year, with special entertainment provided. Cacuton Kendqaki 1035 NEA tfOVCS.lNa chapter xx:: vhi V"ORMAN said, -Millicent, I love you. That's why It meant so much to me when I found you were safe after knowing you bad been in such danger. 1 didn't want to tell you now because I was afraid you'd think I was Just like Bob Caise, I know the way he must have tried to force himself upon you. But it's different with me. Won't you understand? Can't yon understand?" She tried to find words, but words would not come. He misconstrued her silence. "Oh, please, dearest one," he said, "please on't misunderstand me! I can't bear the thought of living without you. Please dont be prejudiced against me because I was swept off my feet Give me a chance to show you that I really 1o love you.

I'll ask you to marry ma Until then, please hold your mind open. Please don't become prejudiced . . And then she found her voice and heard herself saying, "Silly, can't you see I love you. too?" His arms closed about her. Their lips clung together for a rapturous moment. This time it was Norman who terminated the Caress. Slowly -e released her, looking at her with eyes in which there was no longer hunger, but only a deep tenderness. "Dearest," he said, "we owe It to you to get this thing straightened straight-ened out and. by Heaven, we're going go-ing to straighten it out! We're going go-ing to nod the person who killed Drlmgold and we're going to And Harry Feldings murderer. Just let me sit over here where 1 can watch yon while yon work on those books.

Without a word Norman sat down, took a cigaret from his case, and lit it. "Go abead." be said, "I'll wait. I can wait, now that I know bow you feel. Only work as fast as you can, so that I can get out and do my share toward cleaning this thing up." - She made no attempt at an orderly or-derly audit of the books. Instead she looked for certain tell-tale evidences evi-dences of discrepancies t b i n g s which she had learned during the time she had acted as assistant to a public accountant. Less than two hours had passed when she looked up at Norman Happ who "had kept 'perfectly quiet, watching her. "There's a fund of more than $200,000 that has simply disappeared. disap-peared. she told him. "It's been juggled around through one or two accounts and then completely dropped. I can tell you this about Richard Gentry he's an indifferent indiffer-ent bookkeeper, but he's an embezzler. em-bezzler. His books would never stand up to an audit. They wouldn't even balance. His accounts show discrepancies right on their faces." "Okay," be said, "let's go. How about that shorthand notebook the one in which you took Drlmgold's confession?" She handed ft to him. He opened the book and looked at the series of pothooks. "It might as well be in Egyptian," Egyp-tian," he told her, "as far as I'm concerned." Suddenly his eyes narrowed and he said. "Look here, Milllcent. Suppose Sup-pose we could discover what that crime was Drimgold was going to confess. Don't you think you could have it appear his confession had gone farther than it really did? No one could' check up on you." "Someone who used my system of shorthand could." she told him. "We'll take -a chance on that. Let's see if we can't find out something some-thing about what he was going to confess because it's linked with this whole business In some way. Come on. Let's go see this chap who runs the liquor store and see if he can't give us an additional clew. With that In our hands we will be sitting sit-ting pretty." "How about this suitcase?" she asked. "That," he said, "can be left with the clerk at the desk. Tell him .it, contains valuables and bell put it in a safe place. Come on, let's go." TTE unlocked the door, held it open for her. and together they descended to the lobby. Happ handed the suitcase across the counter to the cleik and said. "That has some valuable documents In It. Give me a receipt and keep It In a safe place. The suitcase Is the property of Miss Milllcent Jones, who is registered with you " The clerk eyed him with cynical appraisal, but what he saw in Norman Nor-man HappB"eyes made him tower his own and nod with unaccustomed unaccus-tomed civility. "Very well, sir," te said, making out a receipt ) Norman folded th5 receipt, handed hand-ed It to Milllcent' aid said.

"but we want to make certain. Will you help us?" "What do- you want me to do? "Go to 3829 Barrone avenue. Go to Miss Phyllis Faulconer's apartment. apart-ment. Tell her that you're selling life insurance or soliciting for a laundry route, or something of that sort.

"There's a man next door who comes In sometimes, but he wants 12 an evening, and he wont . . ." "That's all right," Norman said. "You call him in.

I'll send this man in to keep the store. Do you folkt want to wait in here until I get back?" "Is there a back room some where?" Norman Happ asked. "Sure. Come right in here and sit down." TTE led the way to a back room which contained two chairs, a cot a stove, some cases of bottled goods, and shelves littered with an array of liquors. There waa a glass panel in front of some of the bottles so that It wa possible for a person in the back room to observe ob-serve customers who entered the store without in turn belng, observed. ob-served. A few moments after they bad seated themselves a bald-beaded man with a drooping, lackadaisical manner shuffled Into the room, gave them a half-smile as though it were too much of an effort to raise the corners of his lips. "My name's Johnson." he said. "1 waa sent In here to watch the tlace." He sat down on the edge of the cot, crossed long legs, and said, "Business sure Is rotten." "Is It?" asked Nonaan.

He broke off as an electric bell sounded. "Customers coming In." he explained. ex-plained. He got up from the cot, lazily shuffled to the outer store. "Did you ever see such a. tired man?" Milllcent Inquired. Norman Happ grinned and got up to look through the glass window. "Ill see bow o waits on customers." custom-ers." he remarked. He stood for a moment staring through the glass partition. Suddenly Sud-denly he gave a start of surprise. "Good heavens" he exclaimed. "Look heVe, MlHicent but keep under cover where they cant see you. I'm afraid they're looking for you." She Joined him at the window, looked out Into the interior of the store.
