She fsearched the scrap of paper, but fonly the headline was readable. ¢ When Clifford Asher laid a hand on Ler arm she came to herself with a little gasp. "I want an evening paper. Please kgt me an evening paper,” she said In a voiceless whisper. Asher stared at her. “A paper . .. but I can't at this time of night.” Bhe seemed to have grown old all at once, and even her lips were white. “What’s the matter?” he urged again, for she was trying to get out (of the car. “They have one in the shop over there Before he could pre- wvent her, she had darted across the “Can’t yo: drive faster?” Georgic asked. goad, the long skirt of her white dress fluttering round her.

She stood for a moment staring before her, then she turned and went back with him to the car. “I just wanted an evening paper,” #ho said almost stupidly. Clifford laughed rather constrain- edly. “You're a funny kid,” Asher saidy *You gave me quite a shock. Aren’t you well?” Bhe turned tragic eyes to him. “Yes, quite well,” she said with Mps that felt as if they were cut in de. “Movie Star Dies Suddenly.” HE said suddeniy, drive faster?” “Are you so anxious to be rid of me? “I want to get home.” Somewhere in the hotel 'there would surely be a paper. “If you're not well,” Asher began difiidently, but she cut him short. “I'm quite well. I'm just tired.” It seemed an eternity until they Feached the hotel. “When shall I see you again?” Asher asked. “I don’t know; I'll write,” she was put of the car without his assist- #nce, “Thank you for taking me,” she id dully. “Good night,” and she ad gone before he could speak, Georgie fled across the lounge to # porter who was aimlessly staring “Can’t you | seem to be one tonight.” “Oh, please, have you got an eves ning paper?” He turned. “No, Misg; perhaps there’s one in the writing room. She went with him, shaking in v limb. “Funny,” he said, “therp don’t Georgie fled away without an- swering, up the wide stairs to her mother’s sitting room. It was in darkness and she switch- ed on the light with a shaking hand. There must be one somewhere. There simply must. But for once the sitting room was almost painfully tidy. She searched everywhere, and then stood still, her hands clasped together, her lips apart. “Movie Star Dies Suddenly.” HE turned and went slowly to her room, slipping out of her pretty frock and leaving it lying in a dis- regarded heap on the floor. If Nicholas was dead . .. well he was beyond her reach forever. She felt as if someone had struck her a crushing blow. Georgie did not hear the door's quiet opening till someone touched her on the shoulder. “Georgie, what is the matter?® She started up, her face drawn and disfigured, her tragic eyes raised to Bishop’s tired face. He wag wrapped in a dressing gown and his grey hair was all ruffled. “I heard you crying. I heard you from my room,” he said. “What is it? Why do you cry like that?” There was & reluctant kindness in his voice that reached Georgie's heart through all her misery. She said with quivering lips: “Have you got an evening paper?” “A paper . .. there’s one in my room, but why—?" he broke off for a moment, looking at her steadily. Then he said: “I'll fetch it for you.” Georgie sat huddled up, shivering in every limb. She almost cried out to him to come back, not to tell her the thing which she kmew must break her heart, but her lips were too stiff, and she just sat there star- ing at the open door till presently he returned. He laid the paper beside her on the bed, but she did not touch it. “Who is it that's dead?” she asked faintly. “You look and see for me ...someone...a famous film star.” Bishop stooped and took the paper in his hand. “Someone named Pauline Frago-: pard. it was a car accident in Cali- fornia. Did you-know her?” “No» There was a little silence, and Bishop laid the paper down again. Georgie leaned her head in her hands; she felt faint. Then Bishop spoke: “Tell mo about it, Georgie. 1 may be able to help.” She tried to say, “You can't, no-| body cam,” only she could not eon- trol her lips, then suddenly she| knew that he was sitting beside her and that his arm was round her shaking body. “Poor child,” he said. “Perhaps Wwe're both lonely.” Georgie caught ber breath, for a moment her whirling tho steadied. Lonely! This man who seemed to have everything he wanted in the world? She took her hands from be fore her tace and turned to look at him.

GEORGE - WASHINGTON, Aug. 23. — Dr. Arthur E. Morgan, head cof tho‘ Tennessee Valley project, plans to | bring to the workers on that job and to their families, in living and a constru: of their leisure time” as well the needed employment and bare necessities of existance. “The increase of leisure afford-| ed by the national program for| shorter work weeks will not add | anything to our civilization un-| less we develop discrimination in | the utilization of those sparz hours” said the engineer-educator, | who will direct the big power and reclamation enterprise Village Life ‘‘Deadly” “Qur village life has been dead- ly; our recreation has been tragz-| ic,” he said. “One trouble is| that life in this country has heen | too much a matter of production, | generally in its mass forms, with- out sufficient consideration being | given to real living.” | On Dr. Morgan's program for | development of well rounded co! munities in “the American Ruhr’ are individual craftsmanship train- | ing in home management, intel- ligent buying and budgeting of th: family dollar, gardening, commun- ity music, organized amateur sports, adult education, nature stu- | dy and improvement of fishing' and hunting grounds. Training Programp Planned Dr. Morgan says the men to be employed in building Cove Creek dam and other projects in the Tennessee valley will be mostly young men from the mountain re- gions who have returned to their homes after losing jobs in indus- trial centers. “Our plan is to work thess men three or four days a week and then to ask them to put probably 15 hours a week in training,” he| said. “We are building up a staff to conduct this training. “The workers will be trained in hygiene, sanitation and in the art| of taking care of their homes.| They will be given a good work-| ing Knowledge of plumbing, elec-! trical installation and furniture re- pairing. Wives of workers be taught home management and the significance of food values. | “A man with an education in purchasing, which enables him to make his dollar go twice as far is as well off as if he had tw as many dollars,” Dr. Morgan de- clared. “We have stress2d too much the making of money while we have not sufficiently empha- sized the intelligent spending of it. Develop Native Culture “In villages where there has; been virtually no recreation or amusements except the movies and pool halls we plan to bring ath- Jotic games and to revive folk dances which have been dying out because of lack of appreciation.| We hope to enhance the respect of these people for thzir own cul- ture.” Efforts will be made to estab- lish a system of adult education patterned to some extent after the folk schools in Denmark whose zl\:“ | Deer Season Now Open!
