MONDAYS Thru FRIDAYS W.N.F.D. 12:15 to 12:30 SYNOPSIS DIAN WESTON, attractive Arden dale girl, is jilted, and her aunt, MISS MARTHA WESTON, tries to persuade her to marry JEROME CARR, a local banker. Dian happens to meet BILL ROLLINS, a New York ar tist, who also has been jilted. * • * YESTERDAY: Paul Peters and Claire Lester, the girl who jilt ed Bill, are eloping to be mar ried by a justice of the peace living near Dian’s farm. CHAPTER SIX “Paul,” said Claire, as the elopement progressed. "Yes, darling!” “Is there really any need of rushing things so?” "Yes—there is—definitely.” "But—why?” “I don’t intend giving you a chance to change your mind again | —nor risk another quarrel that’ll. send me off miles away from you.” “We could have a few days of fun in town—going to parties and things—and then get married.” “Nothing doing: Besides, as I told you, I have only a week’s va cation, and I want to marry you tonight and make that week a honeymoon.” Claire patted Paul’s hand. “You’re sweet, Paul,” she said. And after a moment’s thought she added, “It’s certainly weird th e way things happen. Imagine, me all set to marry Bill Rollins, and go back to New York to live in his penthouse studio—and then your coming home.” “I’m darned glad I arrived when I did,” said Paul. “I’m claiming you for my owm, darling, just as you ARE my own—for always and forever. Right?” “Yes, Paul,” said Claire. “Tel! me about this place in the West Indies where you live—and where you’ll take me?” “It’s sort of wild at the mo ment, Paul replied. “But some nice fellows and their wives are settling there, building little bung alows to live in while the A r m”v bases are being completed. Sort of primitive, in a way—but you’ll learn to like it. Bridge parties out on porches—not much dancing as yet but lots of out-of-doors; and the excitement of seeing buildings and docks spring right up under your very nose.” Claire said nothing for a time. She sat there thinking. . . .A pent house studio in New York, ter races overlooking the East river color, life-and Bill Rollins. That —and a quickly constructed bung alow in a primitive setting, lots of young wives of engineers, and not much dancing—and Paul Peters. Something of a contrast, and yet she had finally chosen the bunga low and not the studio. She hoped she hadn’t made a mistake. She studied Paul’s profile, remember ed his exciting love making, his enthusiasms, his strong, caressing hands. No, she hadn’t made a mis take—not when Paul went with the bungalow. "Oh!” she cried suddenly. "I felt a drop of rain. And just look at that cloud!” "Looks like we’re in for one of Ardendale’s famous cloudbursts.” Paul said. ‘Isn’t this where we turn off?” “Yes,” said Claire. “And do drive carefully. The road’s full of holes and gulleys.” Paul forced the engine to do its utmost and soon it was chug-chug ging along a swamp-like and sel dom-used road, a road that was none too good under the most fa vorable circumstances, and would be almost impassable after a heavy rain. Then the raindrops began to pat ter down, tangible evidence of more to come. “Dam it all!” said Claire. “I told you we oughtn’t to have been in such a hurry, Paul!” “Just keep calm, darling,” said Paul. “I’ll get you safely through it all. In an hour or so the storm will be over, and you’ll be Mrs. Peters. Gosh, just imagine!” Then it happened. There was a sort of thud as the car’s rear wheels dropped into a puddle. Fhere was also the suond of wheels spinning around and around, and getting nowhere. Claire looked at Paul. Paul looked at Claire. “Iam afraid we’re stuck,” Paul said. I “Well, of all things!” Calire gasped. “Just a minute and I’ll have a look.” Paul scrambled out of the car. “You get behind the steering wheel and follow my direction I’ll see if I can find a board to put under the wheels, so the yean : catch.” “You’ll never find a board in this forsaken spot,” wailed Claire. She was right. There was no board. But Paul threw some not too-wet leaves under the wheels, and prayed for results. “Go on, darling, start the car!” he cried. “I’ll push.” Claire did. and Paul pushed. But nothing happened. That is, nothing happened but that t h e spinning wheels splashed Paul with mud from head to foot. n “Well!” Claire called. “What’s happening? Will we make it?” “Practically nothing,” said Paul. “I’m afraid we’re stuck— ! for good.” xou mean we’ve got to sit here all night?” said Claire. “No.” Paul replied. He came around to the car and looked in. It s not far to Dian Weston’s farmhouse, is it?” "Oh, no—only about a mile down this awful road—that’s all!” “Shall we run for it before it rains any harder?” Paul suggest ed. “I’ll wrap the automobile robe around you—and carry you, if you like.” | “Anything’s better than sitting here,” said Claire. “All right, let’s go.” They struck out, Claire running along beside Paul at first, but la ter permitting hinn to carry her The thunder rolled, the lightning increased, the rain grew more menacing, and the justice of the peace seemed a long, long way off, “Now,” said Claire, half sob bing, “maybe you'll agree with me that a church wedding would have been best.” I loathe church weddings,” said Paul. “I like elopements. Church weddings cause such a lot of fuss and mess.” DAILY CROSSWORD 1 Large pulpit 5. Slants 9 Liking 10 Tooth filling 12 Entertain 10. Custom 14. Strong wind 15. Shoshonean Indians 16.

I wouldn’t know who you were if I met you face to face.” ‘Well, mud or no mud,” said Paul, trying to laugh, “it’s st i 11 little me—your future husband.” He stumbled on toward Dian’s farmhouse, the bulk of which the lightning revealed at brief inter vals. 4 (To Be Continued) -V ADMINISTRATION OKEHS PIPELINE Approves Construction Of 220 Mile Tube In Florida WASHINGTON, June 17— UP) — The administration acted today for the second time within a week to alleviate the eastern petroleum shortage by approving a 220-mile pipeline across northern Florida to be built at an estimated minimum cost of $3,500,000. Sponsored by the American Lib erty Pipe Line company of Dal las, Tex., the 8-inch line would be built of salvaged pipe and have an estimated 35,000-barrel daily capacity. Officials estimated that the government - financed project could be completed 120 days after work is started. Just a week ago today the War Production Board approved imme diate construction of a 24-inch steel conduit from Longview, Tex., to Mount Vernon. Ind. The 550 - mile line would deliver 300,000 barrels of oil daily at Mount Vernon, from where much of it would be trans ported by tank cars, barges and Great Lakes carriers to the East ern Seaboard. The Florida line would have its; terminals at Port St. Joe on the Florida Gulf coast and Jackson ville on the East coast. Gasoline,; fuel oil and other petroleum pro- j ducts pumped through the line' would be trans -shipped by barge north and south from Jacksonville, through the Atlantic intracoastal waterway to supply the southeast ern seaboard states of FI o r i d a, North Carolina and South Carolina. Petroleum coordination officials expressed belief that the line would also provide some relief along the seaboard north of Nor folk, Va., by enabling the Planta tion pipe line, stretching from Ba ton Rouge, La., to Greensboro, N. . C., to carry more products farther! north and by releasing some rail tank cars for service there. The petroleum agency emphasiz ed, however, that the Florida line was not expected to result in lifting the gasoline rationing in the south ern area. Because of the use of salvaged pipe to be dug up in Texas, no i priorities would be required. -V LUCIEN BOYER VICHY, June 17—(A*)—L u c i e n Boyer, famous Paris music hall singer, died last night in the oc cupied capital.
