Archer Boyd and his Henderson In

here tomorrow afternoon at league
Park at 4 o’clock to feature the mer
chant’s half holiday from their labors.
Joe Burnett, who was one of Jimmy
Teague’s Gamecocks here in 1928 when
Henderson had organized baseball, an
entry in the Piedmont Le ague, is said
to be one of the hurlers for the visit
ing aggregation. If Burnett does not
see action on the hill that day. Leonard
Cutts, said to be one of tlte best of
semi-pro pitchers in this section, will
do the afternoon’s hurling.
Skipper Boyd is In a bad way for
ball players at present. Two of his
mainstays, Langley and Harris have
gone off on a two-weeks encampment
with.,a military comuanv amt Sunuay
afternoon Buddy Kelly, stellar third
baseman, was pulled from the game in
the sepond inning with Falls of Neuse
with a broken finger on his right hand,
the result of tagging a man sliding
into his bag. With these three va
cancies hard to fill, Boyd is negotiat
ing for some good baseball talent to
fill these holes. He will have them cn
hand by tomorrow’s game, he thinks.
Manager Boyd has chosen himself
as the pitching choice for the locals in

EiiiH uniEß ol", (In. 0./ DAuuT ulSr ArCH, TUESDAY, JULY 10, 1934
Silver SuppEßSvtel
It FAD THIS FIRST:
loan Dudley, vacationing with her
wraltlij / aunt, Adelaide Delafield, is
enoaged to Drew 11 alia m, ivho is
Deice her ape. Al Granitchead,
where they arc stopping with Dr civ's
sister, Nancy, is a bookshop owned
by Giles Arwiper, below which is a
shoemaker ’» shop run by his war
time friend, Stephen Scripps. Drew
prows jealous after Joan meets Giles
and they become interested in each
other. Meantime Drew is paying
considerable attention to Hose Gar
ter, an ola sweetheart. Giles poes
to Portsmouth for some old books
and Joan derides to leave Granite
head after her aunt has reprimanded
her for her interest in Armiper.
W hen Joan ones to Giles' shop to
leave her address, Scripps lies and
tells her Giles is away because his
WIFE is ill, fearing he may lose
Ar wiper’s companionship because of
hu love for Joan. Stunned, Joan
returns to the Maine woods and the
home of a friend, Penelope Sears,
but she is not happy. Her aunt
writes she as sailing for Europe with
Drew and Nancy. Unexpectedly
Drew arrives and Joan feels she is
happy again. He urges Joan to
wfite her aunt for forgiveness for
leaving her and when she refuses he
proposes they be married secretly
the next day.
INOW GO ON WITH THE STORYJ
CHAPTER 26
DREW WENT on to explain eag
erly that what he hoped was that
Adelaide would listen to reason as
time went on . . . “She’ll want you
to come, perhaps before we sail. And
If she doesn’t, I’ll Know you’re mine,
for time and for eternity.”
“But why not tell hep?”
"Because while she’s in this mood,
she’ll never forgive us. We might
spill the beans.”
Joan hated to nave him say it like
that. It destroyed the illusion. Yet
«.s he wove for her the fabric of his
dreams, she wavered.
“My wife! Joan, do you know how
iovely you are? I thought .1 had re
membered, but when I saw you to
•ight . . .”
. She felt as if a silken net were
being drawn about her. Her con
science, her common sense were
against the thing he proposed, but
at iast she promised!
"Yon will never regret it," Drew
told her, triumphantly.
They went upstairs together, and
as she went into her room, Drew’s
whisper rang in her ears like a chime
of bells, “Our wedding day . , . to
morrow.”
She lighted her candles, and moved
about the room, finding the things
she would need in the morning. Her
mind was in a whir). It seemed as
if she were two people; that one side
of her consented to all that Drew mid
proposed, while the other protested,
■ “I will not. I will not.”
She decided that the gray dress
which Drew had praised should be
her wedding gown. And there would
be the ivory beads. And the little
violet hat.
In the room next to Joan’s Pene
lope lay wide awake. She had not
gone to bed until Joan came up. She
had hoped the child might look in
Upon her and say “Good night,” but
the light footsteps had passed her
door. She had heard Joan moving
about, but now there was no sound.
She had a sense of foreboding. If
Joan had been her daughter, she
would have gone to her. But Joan
was not her daughter . . .
At last she could stand It no
longer. She put on a dressing gown
and went along the hall. When she
reached Joan’s room, she found the
door open, and Joan, like a ghost, in
her white negligee, standing in the
middle of the floor. “How strange
you should come, Penelope," she said,
m a breathless voice, “I was coming

went in and closed the
fldor. ’ She sat dqwn in, a chintz
covered chair. Joan sat oh the bed.
Rhe~had lighted a candle and its pale
flame showed the two women in
strange contrast. Joan in white,
with her silky, shining hair, was like
one of Raphael’s angels. Penelope's
hair was in kids, and her dressing
gown was made of a red blanket.
Her shadow on the wall showed little
horns, but there was nothing dia
bolical about Penelope. She was
sane and sensible, and tonight her
heart was troubled , . . Ts Joan were
her daughter . . .!
“And now. my dear, what is It?"

Asheville downed Richmond yester

This was the only contest played

"How strange you should come, Penelope”.
"T couldn’t —sieep . .
“Why not?”
“I had so much to think of.”
“Pleasant things?”
“Worrying things. Penelope, dar
ling, I wish I had a stiff back
bone . . .’’ she tried to laugh.
“Does that mean you are going
to give m to your aunt?”
•"No. But I’ve found out that it
wasn’t Drew’s fault. He came . . .
to teil me . . ."
“So you’ve forgiven him.”
“Oh, yes . , . you see ... I love
him . . .”
Again Penelope had that sense of
something sinister. "My dear." she
said, “I don’t know why you should
wish for a stiff backbone, but let me
say this, that in love as in every
thing else there are just three things
which make for happiness—and they
are faith and honesty and courage.
If you bring these to your lover and
he brings them to you nothing can
prevail against them. If you were
my daughter, Joan, I would wish
only this for you, that the man you
marry should hold you to your best.”
Joan sat very still, a little statue
in the starlight, and at last she said,
with a sigh . . , “We are none of us
perfect . .
"No.”
They talked after .that of other
things and finally Penelope rose and
stood by the bed, “i must say ‘good
night’, my dear.”
“I shan’t sleep," there was a qua
ver in Joan’s voice.
“I wilK sit by you until you shut
your eyes.”
When at last Penelope went back
to her room, it was a long time be
bore she slept, and in the darkness
she drew near to the infinite source
of the strength which was within
her. “Help her to choose the best,
Lord,” prayed the wise old woman.
Joan waked at dawn, and lay
watching the light come into the
room. It was a pleasant room, sim
ply furnished with some of the nice
old things that Penelope had in
herited. Joan’s bed was of the fold
ing type, with a crewel-worked cover
and tester. There was a hooked rut ,
a Jacobean chest, a maple dressing
table with a Queen Anne mirror
aboY.ejit.
Oil the dressing table were laid out
Joah’s toilet’ things—the hrtTSh ifnd
comb and handglass of carved ivory
and silver, the pale flagon of per
fume, the painted porcelain boxes.
These were the only opulent articles
in the room. They belonged to the
old life. *
Joan seemed to see Adelaide sit
ting beside the bed as she had sat
that day In the hotel . . . After all
I’ve done for you . . . I’ve treated
you like a princess . . . those pearls
you have on are worth a fortune . . .
The old voice had had venon in it.

the old eyes had been baleful. Joan
thought of Penelope’s voice and eyea
as last night she had sat beside the
bed . . . faith, and honesty, and cour
age . . .!
And set against these—a clandes
tine marriage!
The sun was up. and as the light
poured in through the window, it
seemed to Joan that a greater light
entered her soul. Honesty and cour
age. and faith? None of these would
belong to her if she ran away with
Drew!
She got up and put on the gray
dress which was to have been her
wedding dress. Then she went down
stairs and followed the path which
led to the bluff. She descended t@
the moor and came finally to th«
sea. She walked up the beach for
miles ... it was a dull morning, and
there were flocks of wild birds flit
ting back and forth across the sands.
Their cries were mournful and were
answered by the mewing of gulls
overhead.
When at iast she turned, Joan had
made her decision. She knew now
that when she faced Drew, he could
not sway her. A battle had been
fought and she had won.
He was waiting for her at the edgß
of the bluff, “I saw you coming . . .
where in the world have you been?"
“For a walk ...”
“Why didn’t you wait for me?"
“I had to think things out . . .**
she lifted her face to his, “Drew,
darling ... I can’t do it.”
“Do what?”
"Marry you today. 1 *
“Why not?”
“Because it . . . isn’t right."
“That’s silly. Why shouldn’t It be
right?”
“Because I can’t —hide things, *
"Don’t you love me?”
“You know I do.”
"Well, then,” he caught up her
hands in his, “show me that you do.”
She shook her head. He dropped
her hands, his forehead frowning.
“You know, of course, that you may
be cutting yourself off from me—-fot'-
ever?”
“Not if you really iove me.”
He saw that she meant it.
stood looking down at her. "You’re,
a strong little thing.” he said, with
a sort of grudging admiration “But
Til feT you this. Some day you are
going to marry me. On my own
terms. And this is the sign arid the
seal of it.” f
He lifted her in his arms and
kissed her again. Then he set her
down and strode away.
Joan stood where he had left her.
And after a long time Penelope came
out. "Breakfast is ready. Where is
Mr. Hallam?”
“He’s gone, Penelope. He, isn’t
—coming back ...”
