Patman. in explaining his bill. ; reminded that it already had pass- i ed the house twice, urged the Legion to get behind it, or one ; similar, instead of retarding legis- i lation. He said their course on the Vinson bill was endangering the entire bonus legislation. He denied that his method of payment printing of paper money would cause inflation. It would merely substitute a circulating obligation ob-ligation for a static obligation, he said, without increasing the total of the obligation. Even if there were danger of inflation. in-flation. Patman said, the bill provides pro-vides the secretary of treasury may call in an equal amount of federal currency, by refunding to the banks the bonds on which they issued the currency.

Biglcr suffered a broken brok-en nose, fractured skull and injuries in-juries about the face and knees when his car collided head-on with a machine driven by Dr. Fister of Ogden. south of Brigham City. Dr. Fister tried to get around a bus at top speed when the roads were slippery and met the Bigler car coming m the other direction The cars collided at a speed of 40 miles an hour and were both demolished. f rj 1 set t r CHAPTER XII ANN stared at Peter Kendall and repeated the words. "Marry you?" "Yes," Peter said. "1 couldn'L Are you crazy?" "No. I like you a lot. We're both unhappy and lonely. If you'll marry me we can fro away together. After while If you want to. you can get a divorce. "It's awfully kind and penerous of you." Ann said gently, "but I couldn't because you see there Isn't any chance that I'll get over the way I feel about someone else." When they were almost in front of Sarah's apartment Ann reeop-nicfi reeop-nicfi Tony's roadster. She saw Tony bis hat pulled down low over his eyes--walking toward the car. Ann foucht the Impulse to cry out to him. Oh. she was weak as water where Tony was concerned! "Please drive on." she said breathlessly. "I've chanped my mind. I'll marry you if you want me to." Peter drove rapidly. Behind them Ann heard the familiar sputter of Tony's motor. It grew fainter as they raced on. "We'll pet a license and then find a minister." "The license bureau Is closed," Ann said. "There are ways," Peter told her. There were ways, as Ann learned A eleepy clerk, routed from bed. was anpry at first. Then, throuph some magic of Peter's, he turned Into a smiling, eager-to-please individual. in-dividual. With the license forthcoming, Peter and Ann sought a minister. They stepped out of the parsonage into a world turning whiter under a driving snow. A queer,, remote. ;old world under its blanket of snow. All part of this strange, unbelievable un-believable drama. She was married, but not to Tony. To Peter Kendall whom she had seen only three times in her life. Because Peter was miserable md generous. On an impulse, she stretched out ber hand to him. Peter covered It for a moment with bis strong, big one. "You're running a big risk," she jaid. "For all you know, 1 may be a perfect devil." DETER, guiding the car through the drifts of snow, said, "Yob look more like a little angel." "Do you really want to run away Peter? Because if you don t we'll stay." Bright Moments In Great Lives James M. Kurn, who later arose; to the presidency of the St. Louis & San Fracisco railroad system started to learn the railroad busi- , ness at the bottom of the ladder Born in Mount Clemens. Mich., where his father was in charge of the local railroad station. Kurn started to learn telegraphy. At 14 he could operate like a veteran. vet-eran. One afternoon, while his father fath-er was absent, he calfed the dispatcher dis-patcher over the wire and asked for a job. The dispatcher never thinging to ask his age. gave him a job as station agent, at West Branch. Mich. Some days later the dispatcher came to the station and saw the youngster checking some freight. "Where's the operator0" he asked "I'm the operator." the boy replied. "Now. see here, sonny." said the dispatcher, "you're to young for so responsible a position. I'll ' take care of things here today. You go back to school." ! SCIENCE 1 ' The United States navy will soon be sending her submarines into maneuvers under the power of new Diesel engines.

"No." "How mur-h time rmjld you spare-without spare-without making any real difference differ-ence ?" "Two or three weeks." "Let'e go to Florida for two or three weeks." Ann supcrsted.

But Ann knowing now that he had no bus- ' iness to be running away to the far ends of the world, argued even better. bet-ter. Presently he was telling her about the place he had bought 00 j the Florida coast during the boom days. You drove through a deep wilderness to get there. And came at last to his small place, curiously called "World's End." fie had named it that because the beautiful small lake curved ; about it and some mornings when you woke the mist would be deep 1 over everything and the opposite ! side of the lake hidden.

There were trees, heavy win? gray moss, bordering the narrow , drive. i Peter had noueht the place when everybody was buying. But he had 1 never been sorry. The site was beautiful and picturesque and would always be a fine place to go when he wanted rest and quiet If Ann preferred they could go to Palm Beaf h or Miami instead of the lonely little retreat In the Florida woods. "No." Ann told him. "I said I wanted to go to the end of the world. Peter, and that's where we're going." "It isn't as though we'll he cut off from civilization," Peter said. "We can drive to Orlando and Tampa and St. Petersburg." QARATI opened the door when they arrived at the apartment. "Hello. Ann." She stared in amazement at Peter and acknowledged acknowl-edged the introduction stiffly. "Pleased to know you." Sarah said, realizing how "countrified" the words sounded. It was awful, dropping into small-town ways whenever she was apitated. And caught like this, her face as shiny as a kitehen pan, and wearing an old rag of a house dress. "Corrje in." Sarah said, "only give me a, little time for a running start" A moment later Ann followed Sarah into her room. Sarah had flopped down in a chair. "Ann! Where's Tony? Where did you "pick up Peter Kendall?" "I've just married Peter. Will you help me pack some things? We're going to Florida tonight." Sarah, staring at Ann's white face and shadowed eyes, said quietly, "Are you 111? You'd better WHCte FIRST?

And after a little Sarah was piecing It together, to-gether, wisely fitting In things which Ann was loyally withholding. Ann had married Peter because she had had a terrible quarrel wltt Tony and Valeria had hurt Peter. What a strantre. mad thing to do, "We'll have to hurry." Ann said. ."Peter said he would be back In an hour." They tumbled traveling bags from the closet Sarah wiped them off carefully, keeping up a running conversation, trying to seem cheerful. cheer-ful. She was dazed. Surely, this was a dream. Presently she would open sleepy eyes and say. "Ann. I had the most ridiculous dream last nipht, I thought you walked in and calmly announced you were married to Peter Kendall." "Ann." said Sarah, "do you realize Peter Kendall has been considered con-sidered the most eligible bachelor in town? Think of all the jealous mammas who'll read about this tomorrow to-morrow and wish their little girls were in your shoes. Think of Valeria Va-leria Bennett. It's a good thing you're leaving town for a while " .4 NN wasn't thinking of Valeria. She was thinking of Tony. "I've done it." she told herself dully, an ache in her heart. "I've done It." Ann's things, very simple but dainty, were packed neatly. Sarah, folding the plain little 6ilk garments, gar-ments, said generously. "I have some thinps I want you to have. I'll have plenty of time to get more before Mac and I step off." Ann shook her head. "It's awfully sweet of you, but what I have will do." Sarah stared, perplexed. After a moment Ann said. "I can get some pretty clothes later." "Sure." said Sarah. "You can buy out the shops later. But that won't be now. Look here, Ann. Peter's a darned attractive man. You'll be absolutely crazy if you don't put Tony out of your mind.' Ann did not reply, "th the packing finished, she sat In a big chair, looking very small, very weary and sad. She was wearing a blue suit, a white ruffled blouse and a small blue hat, fitting close to her bronze hair. The telephone rang. Sarah said nervously. "Peter. You'd better go." Ann whispered, "It's Tony. You go." It was Tony. Ann heard Sarah saying "Yes, Ann is here, Tony. No. you can't see her tonight. If you come, you can't get In." There was silence for a moment. Then, "You mustn't come, 1 tell you she can't see you." Sarah hung up the telephone and turned to Ann.
