THURSDAY, VWtSUB J THE WAYNES VILLE MOUNTAINEER 1' V i ' t ' 4 IN Hi 'till f j ran rxnpr noonnnrOf, f.vw. MASON CHAPTERV At once cigarettes and cigars were produced and the air became blue, first with cigar smoke and second the things Ian .Gray told Leonard Holt when he took the latter aside and read what he called the Riot Act. YoU triple-dyed ass! You blith ering idiot, what's gotten into yout If you've got to go mooning around the vob Waldeck girl, for Lord sake don't be so infernally brazen and public about it! First thing you know, Ilya's brother will be pulling your nose in public, there'll be a scandal and that, will the end of your career as a diplomat." Leonard Holt's handsome pink features hardened. "Shut up," he snarled. "Not even you can talk to me like that I'm free, white and twenty-one." "You dont act like it," was ths other's bitter retort. "And if you haven't got sense enough to save yourself, I'm going to do what I en. You owe something to Ilya. Have you gone crazy t" For the first time since they had met during the dark days of 1917 the two men stood glaring at each other, faces flushed and hands closed. Then, as usual, the weaker gave in. "Oh, damn it, Ian, don't look at me like that! I can't stand it. I I'm queer these days all upset. I'm sick fed up with the whole business. Truth is love Lolita- worship her adore her! I know , I'm a cad to say this when I'm en gaged to Ilya but damn it I can't help myself she carries one away like a drug almost!" Leonard fell silent, staring mis erably at the tip of his cigarette. Instantly Ian softened. "Look here. You heard what was said at that cocktail hour? This Lolita's lovely and simple appearing. I'll grant, but you've got to get grip on yourself. Don't throw away the love of a really sweet and clever girl like Ilya. I tell you she is one in a thousand and she worships you." "That's the worst of it!" sighed the shorter man. "I feel like a per fect swine. I've told myself so a hundred, times a day for the last two weeks Ilya's so damnably loy al'.' He raised stricken gray eyes. "But I can't help myself there's something about Lolita that just disorients me, she annihilates my sense of values I know it's ruinous to play with her, but I I damn TRUSTEE'S SALE OF REAL ESTATE -' : (By Sustituted Trustee. ) Pursuant to the power and au thority contained in a certain deed of trust dated the 28th day - of December, 1933, executed by Min nie Boyd (unmarried) to Allan L O'Neal, Trustee, which deed of trust is duly registered in the office of the Register of Deeds of Hay wood County, North Carolina, in Book of Deeds of Trust, No. 33, page 287, securing a certain note payable to HOME OWNERS' LOAN CORPORATION, default having been made for a period of more than ninety (90) days in the payment of said note as provided therein and in the performance of certain covenants set out in said deed of trust and demand of fore closure having been made by the holds of said indebtedness, the un dersigned Trustee, having been sub stituted as Trustee, for Allan S. O'Neal, said substitution being duly recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds it, Ian, I am crazy with love for her!" ' : v. : "You're not," snapped the big man in evening clothes, the minia ture decorations sparkling with the vehemence of his negation any thing so fierce and quick as this silly infatuation of yours is bound to burn out even quicker. Then you'll wake up to find your career at an end and the girl you loved hating the thought of you. Think it over, Len, is it worth it?" From the far end of the room sonded the laughter and voices of the other men guests who, in a brilliantly-uniformed throng, had gath ered to listen to Captain d'Armo not's latest story. ..V, , "Tell me, said Ian suddenly, "who's that fellow in the dark green uniform the little fellow with the long nose and the black mous tache?" . . . When Leonard's eyes encountered that faintly menacing figure, he stiffened and bit his lip. "That," said he, is Colonel Sobe loff , A Bulgarian bird of some sort who fell in love with Lolita when she was in Sofia a couple of months ago. She's told him a dozen times to stop following her, but he wont. He's a crazy sort, swears he'll kill her and himself some day if she won't marry him." . "He looks quite capable of it. Re member, Leonard, a Bulgarian isn't troubled half so much about killing a supposed enemy as the next man. Watch out, and for lord's sake get back to earth before it's too late!" The younger man's face lit in a pathetic admiration. "I will and you're a mighty good egg, Soldat!" And Leonard impulsively squeezed his hand, then Btrode off, ever fol lowed by the smoldering regard of the stocky Bulgarian. "Of all the crazy idiots!" growled Ian Gray as he unobstrusively ap proached the group of listeners to the French artillerman's story. His attention, however, was not on d'Armonot's cleverly risque annec dote as he edged around the circle until he found himself directly be hind the dark-browed Colonel Sobe loff. As he had feared, there was indeed a certain omninous bulge un der the Bulgarian's tunic back. "An automatic," he decided. "Probably a .32. Well, well." And forthwith he determined to pay close attention to the movements of the short but powerfully built officer in green and gold. Presently Ian made an opportun ity to again address that madden ingly beautiful enigma who went under the name of Lolita van wai deck. Something like a duelist who approaches the field of honor and studies his opponent, he viewed the white clad girl with a thoroughness and clear headedness that surprise ed him. But the more he scanned her un painted, unlined and placid features, the more utterly at sea he felt, Lolita von Waldeck seemed as utterly fresh and unsoiled as Colebridge's Sea-born Cythera," and her eyes, when they met his, were as clearly blue as the waters of the Mediterranean. Could it be this girl who had led di Valasto to a suicide's grave? Could this laughing and fragile creature really have been responsi ble for that young British diplo mat's disgrace at Bucharest? It seemed utterly impossible, yet here was the morose and dangerous Sobeloff brooding in the back ground and here was Leonard in the act of ruining his career for love of her. Suddenly a thought struck him. All this strange girl's victims, or near-victims were, in some de gree, connected with International affairs. The inference was as ines capable as it was unpleasant. Sud denly he determined to see for him self; so very tell, well groomed and casual he drew near and pres ently managed to shake off her per sistent entourage. "You are to be long in Budapest, Mademoiselle la Countess?" he im quired. She answered with a charming little shrug. "Heaven alone knows, Monsieur Gray. I hope so, tor I think Budapest is the last truly gay city in Europe. London is too full of unemployed, and besides, as some deep thinker once remarked, the British always take their pleasure sadly. Paris has lost her old charm to become a commercial and busi ness center, enfin hopelessly bour geios; Berlin always was cold, bru tal and dismal; but Budapest" Ian's heart lifted a little as a slow smile parted lips that resem bled scarlett ribbons laid across a white marble table. Her eyes were Very direct and somehow determin ing.:;: On reaching a sudden determi- tion he said quite clumsily, "Don't you think it's warm in here. Would you care to go out into the garden?" "Is it not still a little chilly?" "Then does the conservatory ap peal? It seems a pleasant spot. He felt her eyes flicker quite sud denly to his, but was satisfield that he had made the suggestion in an entirely natural way. "Very well," she smiled making skilful play with the fan she had substituted for her evening bag. "I should like it It does look very restful out there. Why do people have to talk so much?" (To be Continued) i i 553 Men Of Two Carolinas Joined Navy In October .' .. v . , ' ' At least one-fourth of the 653 men recruited by the navy in North Carolina durinsr October were in fluenced by the current navy adver tising campaign being conducted in the two states, Lt. Commander Mc Farland W. Wood, officer-in-charge of recruiting in the Carolinas, an nounced in Raleigh this week. Records reveal that at least one fourth of October's total enlist ment the largest number taken in one month since World War I joined the navy as a result of the advertising campaign, while many other recruits reported that the ads had helped them decide to join America's "first line of defense." The campaign was begun Sep tember 22 in newspapers through out North and South Carolina and "is progressing satisfactorily," Commander Wood said. "The series of nine advertisements, drawn up by a New York adver tising agency, is producing defi nite results in the Carolinas by showing young; men the many op portunities offered by the navv." Most of the recruits in October's record-breaking enlistment total who were influenced by the ads came ; from rural homes because the campaign is designed to reach the rural areas of the Carolinas two of the South's greatest agri cultural states. Advertisements were awarded only to newsoapers of the less than 50.000 population and the majority of the ads went to weeklies and semi-weeklies. According to data gathered dur ing October, the average recruit was 19.44 years old, weighed 139.R3 pounds and was 68.36 inches tall. "North and South Carolina are continuing to furnish the navy with healthy, alert young men as it has during the past years and past na tional emergencies," commented Commander Wood. The advertising campaign is stressing the many opportunities offered Americans by the navy, Commader Wood said. "The navy now offers unusual opportunities tn ambitious men between the ages of 17 and 49 inclusive," he may asserted.
