At tables encircling the dancing
floor, gay groups dined and made
ready to welcome the New Year, and
danced between course* to the music
of the orchestra.
With a modernistic discord the band
finished an encore fox trot, and Stan

"Well," said Stanley In a business

made out and sworn to."
"Do you think I need to make any
new resolutionsT* This was asked
archly, teasingly.
"I certainly do!" Stanley's reply
was emphatic. "You have one very
bad habit that irritates me beyond
words. Without that, Babs, yon would
be absolutely perfect!"
"Thank you, kind sir, she said,"
Babs mocked. "And may I ask what

the whole countryside?"
"Don't pretend. You know well

"Please verify, then."
"Now look here," Stanley said as
he drew geometric figures with a pen

to a close, I have proposed to you just

"For every refusal, as you call It,**
Barbara reminded him, "there has
been a proposal, which makes your
habit Just as bad as mine. In fact,
worse, because you started yours first,
and mine was a natural consequence."
"You mean unnatural consequence,"
Stanley corrected her.
"Well, anyway," Barbara argued, "If
you will swear oft your bad habit, I
won't have to do anything about
mine."
She glanced at him without raising
her head, and the mischief that looked
up through her long curved lashes
gave Stanley a little start
Suddenly he said, "In the meantime,
I move to lay the question on the
table, to be taken up right after this
dance."
He opened his arms to her as she
arose.
"I second the motion," she said.
"Carried."

Stanley spoke into the little ear so
close to his face. "Now you are Just
where you belong." His arm tightened

CITY EMPLOYES'
BIGDONATION
At the meeting of the city council
last week, the Association of City
Employes, through its president,
Robert Connaughton, acting director
of finance, and its secretary, E. M.
Ladley certified that $38,271.15 had
been donated to the city for general
operations.
This amount represents 20 per cent
of the pay of city employes from July
1 1933, to December 1. And if you
ask us, that's some nice donation to
the "cause."
CARTHAGE FAIR TO
SHOW LATER DATE
Hie annual Carthage Fair will
show at a later date in the future,
according to announcement last week
by the Hamilton County Agricultural
Society. The dates for the 1934 fair
are September 12 to 15. Heretofore
the fair has always been held about
the first week in August.
Two reason, principally, are given
for the change in date. One is that
a better display of farm produce,
grain, fruit, flowers, etc., is possible
in the latter date and, secondly, a
better attendance is possible in Sep
tember because of the large number
of people who go away on vacation
during August and return home by
Labor Day, the first Monday in Sep
tember.

NEWSPAPER GUILD
IS ORGANIZED
Washington.—The "rugged individ
ualism" which has been the charac
teristic of newspaper writers in the
United States has succumbed to the
overwhelming influence of economic
conditions, and the necessity of com
bining and acting collectively for the
common good, long the fundamental
basis of trade union organization, has
made itself felt in newspaper offices
from the editors to the reporters.
At least this is the opinion of Hey
wood Broun, columnist for the Nedw
York World-Telegram, after dele
gates from 30 newspapers from all
the United States formed the Amer
ican Newspaper Guild at a meeting
here.
The guild's sponsors declared that
it was organized to "pfreserve the
vocational interests' of newspaper
editorial and reportorial writers, "and
to improve the conditions under which
they work by collective bargaining."
Under a constitution adopted, the
new organization will absorb the pres
ent newspaper guilds in cities which

will become chapters of the national
body.
Heywood Bruon, president of the
guild, told the delegates that "we are
going to get a five-day week whether
we get it under this code or later."
He said that overtime accumulated
while on a special story could be
taken off when that duty was con
cluded. He added that newspaper men
were not going to propose "tricky
or impossible things" in any code.
