*, KR GETTNG FAT AWATINGHS EXE Riffian Chief Maintains Old Fatalistic Resignation. Will Glimpse Riviera. By the Associated Press FEZ, Morocco, August 26.—Abd-el- Krim, the fallen Riffian chieftain, will get a short glimpse of southern France when he lands at Marseille, September 1, on his way to exile on Reunion Island. The French govern- ment has chosen that isolated spot in the Indian Ocean as the emir's fu- home Instead of the enchanting viera, which he himself would have picked. ! The emir is scheduled to sail from Marseille accompanied only by his immediate family and by the French officer intrusted with the task of es- corting_him to his_exile. Abd-el-Krim has lived very simply since his arrival here early in June, but the idleness of his days has caused him to take on weight, and now he is really a fat elderly gentle-| man, instead of the lean desert hawk he was when he challenged and fought France and Spain in the deso late wastes of his own country The fallen chieftain appears to have lost spirit and ambition.

Alvin loved his mother. * There was no doubt about that. He treated her with a gallantry that made her the envy of every other mother in town. As a growing,boy he had never for- gotten to take her to basket ball games even if he took another girl with them. And the girls didn’'t seem to mind. Mrs. Rogers was such a sweet, girlish woman who appeared more like her son's sister than his mother. Then the day came when the other mothers, remarked that some day Alvin would be sorry he had spoiled his_mother like this. Ilis attentions to Mary Banks were apparently seri- ous and on occasion he was seen with her*without his mother. This caused no anguish to the other mothers, They rather disiiked the idea that some one else’'s son Wwas more attentive than their own and they professed to think that it was scandalous of a grown woman to be eternajly at her son's heels.

Have you spoken to Al- vin_about it?" “No, but T shall” Mrs. Rogers said nothing to Alvin about not intending to live with him and his bride. The suggestion about living in_his old home pleased him. | It made it possible for him and Mary to be married at once. The wedding took. place, as all wed- dings did in.the little town where they lived, in the church where Alvin and Mary had been christened. And after the wedding Alvin and Mary got into Mrs. Rogers" little sedan and drove away on a honeymoon that {had a secret destination. | The day after the bridal couple left town Mrs. Rogers bought a ticket tfor Chicago, after leaving a note for the couple, who would return before she did. It told them that she had, turned over the house to them and would not be back except for an oc- casional visit. Mrs. Rogers had no close relatives | as Mary would have known had she been thinking of anything but her own- glorious romance. The hotel to| which she went when she arrived in the city offered very little in the way | of home-like comforts. But since | Mre. Rogers was no longer the mis- tress of the rambling old house down in the country to which every mem- {ory would always return she thought she would do well to change her mode | of living in an attempt to shut out heartache. { The theater provided some amuse- ment and she bought a seat for a | musical comedy at the desk of her hotel four days after her arrival. The |seat was in the center of the house and she was late for the opening of the performance. 1t was not until the curtain had gone down on the first act that she saw Alvin and Mary directly in front of her. At first she thought of bend- ing forward and touching Alvin's | hier that a mother should eftace her- | !self during her son’s honeymoon. She | wonld have gone out of the theater | except for the fact they would most | assuredly see her. So she sat very quietly and commented to herself what a handsome young couple they were. 2 Her son's voice caused her to §tif- old her breath. - ing ever so I loved you just as much ibly could all the time, but 1 love you twenty. times ce you told me what you out you and mother.” s.

It was just like I told you, Alvin, I didn't say exactly that sthat was what I wanted, but I know I let her get that impression. And ‘I guess, that was what I did want then. But I don't now. And do you know, honey, I think her willingness to let me have my own way was what made me realize that I could live with her forever and just love it.” Mrs. Rogers saw her son's arm | move slightly and she knew he was taking Mary's hand. She didn't for a moment think it was silly. She re- membered how his father had done exactly the same thing and how happy he had always made her with sudden little demonstrations of tenderness. “And, Alvin,” the bride was con- tinuing, “I'm going to tell her just as soon as we get back.

She just loves that. If we start about 10 o’clock we'll be home by 6.. And I think you are Jjust too sensitive, darling. Mother never let me think you had hurt her feelings. I know you didn't. Gee, Mary, I wouldn't want to think you had, honey.” His voice was sad as he sald it. Somehow Mrs. Rogers understood that her note back home would make a difference in the way Alvin felt toward his bride. She left the theater during the second act. An hour later she was| on a train bound for home and be- tore morning she had destroyed the note she had .left for the bridal couple. And when they arrived the next night Mrs. Rogers had a big dinner ready for them and 12 young people heard Mary say to her mother-in- law that she anfi Alvin had come home hecause they were homesick for | her. 604 9th St.N.W.
