THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1982. [A PATH T ARADISE pawson__| | BYNOPSIS: Clive orders Dicky out of his New York apartment then Dicky asks Clive to per- auade Santa to take him back. Clive has not seen Sauta since before she aued Dicky for divorce én Chicago. But try as he will he cannot deny his love for her, He has even offended his, employer by refusing to go to e on Beoineco nile “Santa's divorce remains unsettled, Santa waite alone, persecuted by Dicky’s peni- tence, in Jhicago. Chapter 16 SANTA GETS HELP ANTA was brushing her hair be, fore the mirror preparatory to climbing into bed, when a peremp- tory knock sounded, Another of Dicky’s persecutions, she conjec tured, in the shape of a pleading letter. How much longer would she be able to hold out against him? The only reason he didn’t intrude in person was that she'd left strict orders at the desk, for weeks she’d been afraid to stir out since she never knew when or where he would waylay her, Throwing a wrap about her shoul- ders, she opened the door a few inches. A bell-boy thrust a tele- gram at her. She slit the envelope with trembling fingers. “No answer.” “But Clive, darling, I've already deserved all I’ve got. I'm no saint.

Ta ; have mucked the life of anyone | whom I'd married.” “That propaganda sounds famil- | jar. Your husband visited me the other evening. Amazing, wasn’t it? I kicked him out aad came to you because I guessed you were weak- ening.” “Old chivalrous!” She smiled tenderly. “If I don’t take him back, what becomes of me?” “You atart afresh.” “Afresh!” She lowered her head, glancing up at him through her lashes. “It’s encouraging of you to say so. What kind of a fresh start is pcssible? If my record were ¢on- densed for reference purposes, it would read something like this: “'The village vamp when she was a flapper. At eighteen she chose the wrong man. At twenty she was divorced.’ “Long ago when I jeered at you for being old-fashioned, 1 talked a lot of rubbish. Among other bosh I insisted that divorce wasn’t a dis: grace. It is, Clive; it matters ter- ribly.” “You're over-sensitive, Santa.” “Um-m!” She cut him short. “T've figured this thing out. When | “Married. aS 1 adore 1 Sate from prying eyes, she re Tead the message: “Arrive Chicago to-morrow. Clive.” Turning out the lights, she nes tled into bed and wept--wept from Joy. She’d been so proud since her disaster, She'd punted her father and mother off into the distance. She'd been positively aggressive in her assertions that her divorce was her own business, She was modern and required neither pity nor help. Heavens, was there any girl at this moment who required help more desperately? She'd reached the limit of her endurance—wasn’t certain of the rightness of any- thing she was doing. But now Clive was coming. Dear Clive who had always told her the truth. She awoke next morning pus sled by her relief from suspense. Then remembered. It would be like casting her burdens on the Lord. When he was shown into her sit- ting-room, s' clasped both his hands, clinging to them as though she were drowning. “O Clive I was so afraid—so driven. How did you guess?” He wasn’t prepared for this emo- ‘tion. “I was told you were funking the “Mummy told you.” He allowed her surmise to pass, She turned her back and strolled to the window. Beyond the panes epring was stirring. “Clive, dear, I love to have you; but you oughtn’t to be here.” “How do you make that out?” “Dicky was always jealous.” ; “What do we care?” “For myself { don’t. I'm finished. Nothing can hurt me. I’m thinking of you.” “Idon't mind for myself, either. Why do you think I made the jour ney? “For me, of course. “Then be sensible. Let's talk about you.” He led her to @ chair and drew another up beside her. “What did you mean by saying you were finished? That's entirely tho wrong attitude.” “But | am, So finished that I'm halfinclined te go back to Dicky.” “If you de, you'll deserve all you THE ARTMAN PRESS I'm divorced—supposing 1 am-— what lies ahead of me? The friends I've made in Chicago are Dicky’s. They'll drop me. The friends I had at home dropped me, as they al- ways do, when . was married. “All right then, I'll have to form @ new circle, How? I’ve no one to make a social background for me. The odd woman, when she's passed the débutante stage, is never welcome. She's a misfit. Hostesses can’t be bothered to pro- vide an escort for her.” “You're determined to be dismal, Santa.” “Then refute me.” He painted the brighter picture, coloring it with the passionate de- sire to convince her. She wae young. She possessed every fascl- mating asset. Added to this, she was financially independent. She looked as much a girl as on the day of her coming-out party. She disputed his assertions. “You think all that because you were once in love with'me.” “You'll marry again,” he as- sured her. “Never.” “Why not?” “It wouldn’t be fair. I wouldn’t | give a second husband a chance. The moment we quarrelled I'd ex- pect him to act the way Dicky’s acted. Besides, the only man who'd | want to marry me would be a di- vorced man or a widower, who'd bring his own sack of disillusion | ments—bricks to throw at me.” She | made sorrowful eyes, back to Dicky.” "T'm going Tears flooded his eyes. The in- | tolerable pathos of her. “Am I decent, Santa? You're etill another man’s wife.

The playing of St. ishowed a decided imprevement fever that shown in the previous | game, and especially was this im- provement noticeable in their line play. Baker and Bethel, of the Junior | Firemen, played outstanding foot- ball for their team, but even though they worked hard for gains } {they could not overcome the bad | breaks and the game ended by the score of 13 to 0. The first touchown was made! by Cates and the second by Alber to Rodriguez. The extra point was’ made on a lateral pass, Cates to} Wickers. | Rev. F. X. Dougherty, S. J., an| jardent football fan, says both teams showed remarkable improve- ment. The players were keyed up to a high pitch of. excitement and played with every ounce of en- lergy and a determination to win. In his opinion it was one of the best games of football he has ever seen played by, young men. ROOSEVELT RETAINS LEAD OVER HOOVER (Continued from Page One) up their tents and steal away to the Roosevelt column. “And then, of course, there’s an other side to the picture. There are some close states in the Roosevelt column, and in these last days of the campaign the Hoover forces are making prodigious efforts to win them over, while the Roose- ivelt forees are making... equally prodigious efforts to hold them, “New York is close, So are Kansas, Colorado, Delaware, The; republicans profess great ¢onfi- dence that they will win some im- portant states by their whirlwind campaign of recent weeks, and they expect especially, they say, | to carry Pennsylvania, in spite of the Digest poll. “However, as this goes to press with the final returns, we know of no reason why the poll should} go very far astray in the figures and percentages from Pennsyl- vania.”” The final returns of the 1928 Literary Digest poll forecast that Hoover would win forty-two states including the demoeratie strong-: holds of Virginia, North Caralina,} Florida and, Texas, In this poll the only states The Literary Digest failed to forecast correctly were Massachusetts and Rhode Island, Jdseph’s \ trary to the poll figures, A comparison of the © official | 1928 yote and the 1928 Literary Digest poll vote showed the maga- zine’s referendum to be over 95 percent correct in its prediction of both the popular vote and the elec-| | toral sollene vote.
