The Congressional Race Is On
At midnight tonight we will know, provided we stay
up that late and just have to know, who is who and why
in the race to succeed John Name (larner as congress
man from the 15th district.
When the stroke ol 12 is sounded tonight, the time
for filing of candidates will have passed, and tomonow
the press will relate just who of all the rumored candi
dates finally got on the dotted line and planked his mone\
down.
For the next two weeks we may expect a lrenzied
appeal for votes from those who did file, and the pity of
it all is that more interest has been aroused in the man
ner in which we were to elect the successor to the vice
president elect than in the candidates themselves.
First we are not going to have a primary, then we
were going to have a primary on the 6th ot February and
then finally the legislature solved it by saying that we
would have two primaries, the one on February 25 and
the run-off on March 15, to be followed by a general elec
tion on April 22.
Few of the candidates and none ot the newspapers
in the 15th district are going to be pleased \\ith the ar
rangement that was finally worked out.
Due to the arehaice election laws of Texas, it is go
ing to be up to the newspapers of the district to tell you
who won in the respective primaries and who won the
general election.
It is no exaggeration to say that a few newspapers in
to say that a few newspapers in this district will be for
ced to spend a total of more than $2,000 to give their read
ers the results of the three elections.
But then newspapers of Texas have been spending
thousands of dollars every other year for many, many
years to get election results to their readers, results which
%
in most states are tabulated and returned by election of
ficials.
At any rate, some time after the 25th day of Feb
ruary we will know the two candidates out of the many
who will fight it out in the run-off primary of March 15
for the honor of opposing Carlos Watson of Brownsville,
lone republican entry, in the general election on the 22nd
of April.
The Lame Duck's Passing
Now that the Lame Duck amendment has been rati
fied, the average citizen probably is inclined to wonder
why on earth we waited so many generations before put
ting this greatly-needed reform into effect. The condi
tions of travel and communication which made the origi
nal arrangement necessary had vanished years ago;
but it is only now that we have bothered to sot things
right.
The answer, perhaps, is chiefly the fact that our nat
ional history has run along so smoothly. We have had
few crises; we have been able to put up with a recurring
gap in our system of government because our govern
ment has had so few shocks. We have been, in short, ex
tremely fortunate. Tim. and again we have had five
month periods ^41 which a discredited and almost impo
tent government sat in Washington; but only in 1861 and
in 1 IKiU has this brought really serious results.

STUDY OF A GROUND-HOG
Your correspondent had consid
erable trouble getting the Ground
Hog to live up to his best tradi
tions tin* year. He didn't want to
come out at all.
••Come out!” urged the Candle
mas Reception Committee.
"What ior?" asked the Ground
Hog.
, "It's in your contract,” argued
the spokesman.
■ The signature's a fake," insisted
the G-H.
"But what's your objection to
coming out? You always have."
"Anybody who would come out ol
a hole to look around at the coun
try this year is nutty,” declared the
G-H.
**Aw come on out,” begged the i
comma tee spokesman, peering into '
tlie hole and showing an adminis
.tion promise that there would be
no suffering from cold this winter.
•■Go away,” barked the Ground
Hog .,
• Think of your public.” beseeeclv*d
the spokesman.
•Scram!" insisted the Gro'ind
Hog.
"Do you realize what it would
mean to America if you let Candle
mas Day pass without emerging m
accordance with the best native
custom and tradition?” demanded
the spokesman, offering it a lolli
pop.
•Distaster,” replied the spokes
man dramatically. "In the present
mood of the American public your
refusal to obey the time-honored
custom would be the last blow to
| its morale. Mr. Roosevelt could stop
mentioning the Forgotten Man.
* business could refuse to turn the
corner, Roger Babson could with

Congr ss couid refuse to come ou*

rumble, but for the Ground-Hog

"Would what?” demanded the
f G-H.
i "I hesitate to picture the devast
ating eficcts on the newspaper
photgraphers, city editors, cub re
porters and rotogravure specialists (
alone.” assured the spokesman.
• Oh. all right.” said the G-H .
‘•but belore I come out I want to
ask three questions.”
I ‘Shoot!"
"Ls Huey Long around? I don't
annd my shadow but I'd hate to see
Huey's"
"No."
“Is Borah where I can hear him?*’
•No."
"Are there any technocrats
around this vicinity?"
‘•Not one."
"Okay.” surrendered the Ground
Hog reluctantly, coming out cau
| tiously. taking a momentary glance
around and scampering back at
once. It was very clear that he was
' taking no chances.

In an acute attack ol coronary
thrombosis there is pain—sudden,
severe and persisting. There is al:;o
a feeling of impending death, so
that the person becomes pale and 'S
in a cold sweat.
Mast often the pain, which is de
scribed as deep-seated, cutting or
tearing, is referred to the heart. It
may persist for minutes or even
hours. As the pain lessens into a
dull ache, there is still a feeling of
apprehension.
A physician .is able to make ex
aminations which will verify the j
diagnosis. This he does by studyui,: |
the pulse, the blood pressure, tnc
breathing, and sometimes by using
an electrocardiographic device,
which gives him an indication of
the action of the heart.
There are. however, some cases in
which even such methods fail to
show definitely the nature of :he
change. An experienced physician,
particularly someone who has stud
ied heart disease, is able to make
the diagnosis by the use of obser
vation. by listening to the heart, and
by the type of study called physi
cal as contrasted with laboratory
diagnosis
• • •
No doubt, the majority of patient*
die almost with the onset of the at
tack However, cases are known In
which patients recover and remai.1
free from attacks for several years,
or even longer
In a recent review of the subject.
Dr. Paul D. White records several
instances in which patients have
survived seven or eight years or
more.
One man had his first attack at
the age of 63. passed a life insur
ance examination two year* la?tr.
and was in such perfect health at
the age of 72 that he climbed moun
tains at a high rate of speed with
out symptoms. He finally died at the
age of 80 of brain hemorrhage, with
out any sign of heart disease.
The postmortem examination
showed definitely the scar associat
ed with the attack of coronary
thrombosis seventeen years prev
iously.

Nf.W YORK Charity's kindest

Even in happier days actors had
made the acquaintance of empty

“fronts.”

Keep I p the front
There was almost as much truth
as caricature to those vintage car
toons of barnstorming players: the |
ham heavy, with lus moth-oa. n
fur-collar; the frizi-haired ingenue
with "her airs'* and all the rest
Anyone who frequented the ide
walks of the Palace in the old days i
knew that the gent with the yel
low stick; the meticulously droop
ed gray gloves and the spats prob
ably had no soles to his shoes. Ar.d
patches on pants carefully cover’d
bv a longish coat. But they put on
"the front.”
Managers knew them: producers
knew them; agents knew them:
their fellow players knew them
yet the individual ixsychology would
have collapsed but for the buoying
illusion of dazzle Delusions of swank
and class kept scores of them going

CHAPTER XXXIII
IERRY and Sheila entered the
'* side door of the Grand more Ho
tel. The corridor extending to that
door led pad cigar and news stands
to the lobby. But near the entrance
there was a email parlor, usually
vacant, known as the Rose Room.
With swiftly beating heart.
Sheila preceded Jerry inlo this
parlor. The mezzanine lounge was
much too public for their talk.
There was no one else there
Sheila sat down on the brocade
covered divan and Jerry dropped
beside her. "Terribly sorry I can’t
ask you to dinner tonight, Sheila,”
no said. “How about tea?" He
smiled. “I don’t often indulge In
that sort of thing but maybe it’s
one of your habits. Ik) they serve
it here or must we go to the dining
room ?"
She knew aud Jerry knew per
fectly well that they did not serve
tea in the Rose Room. They did
not, as a matter of fact, serve it
anywhere. When tea was served in
Spencer it was served at someone's
home.
"You mean that you have an en
gagement?” Sheila asked. Then,
brightening, she added. “Why not
drop around after the show to
night? We arc leaving at midnight
out 1 can have my things packed
and ready. Maybe” (her voice
shook a little) "you could take me
for a little drive?”
The rising tnllcetion as she fin
ished the sentence softened the fact
that she was making the advances.
She watched the young man at her
side. Jerry was leaning back
aganat the divan, one leg eroded
over the other, swinging easily. His
diver cigaret case was open in las
□and.
• • •
CUDDENLY he snapped the case
^ shut. And in that lustaut the
situation became clear to Sheila.
Jerry had made love to her He nad
almost asked her to marry him
He bad said that be loved her.
promised to follow her to New
York. Well—he bad done that He
□ad gone to New York but not to
*ee her. Sheila doubted that her
oeing there bad nad anything to
do with that journey. Jerry proba
bly made frequent trips to New
York. The Jerry she had met wear
ing overalls, carrying bis lunch in
a paper bag, had completely
fooled her. The scion of a wealthy
family working up from the ranks!
Oh. but she had made herself ridicu
lous. An impulse to laugh swept
over her. She knew before he
spoke what Jerry would say.
“I’m tied up at home tonight.
Sorry." That and a charming smile.
And her guess was correct. He said
it almost in those very words.
“When are you returning to New
York?” he asked after a moment.
Jerry sat up straight, reached for
his hat and made as if to rise. He
was going now. Site would not seo
him again.
"New York?” Sheila repeated.
“Oh. wo have 40 weeks’ booking.
We’ve hardly been out a mouth.”
"Long season, isn't it?”
“A long season. Yes.”
He rose, twirling his hat in his
bands, facing her.
“Sheila, don’t look that way,
dear,” lie began, his expression sud
uenly tender.
So sho was making It as plaiu
as that that she was miserable. Her
lips trembled. Was she going to
cry?
“Sheila* "
The corridor outside was empty.
There was no one to see. Jerry's
arms, outstretched, enclosed her.
“How could you hurt me so?" she
asked later, reproachfully.
“But darling—”
“You'll have dinner with me?”
her voice was pleading. “Oh, Jerry,
say you will! Telephone home. Tell
them you’ll he there by eight
o'clock. That's early! The whole
evening will belong to them. Do
stay. Jerry!”
“Well, maybe—*
1) UT later, in her dressing room
^ at the theater, Sheila reviewed
the scene uncomfortably. How she
had begged him! Her fare grew
crimson at the thought How she
had pleaded with him to dine with
her! She. Sheila Sbayue, who had
been so proud of her independence!
Leaving Jerry in the lobby, she
had hurried to her room, dressed
carefully and called Henri, the
head waiter, on the telephone. She
had given the dinner order. The
party was to be at her expense.
“Melon. Henri, and fillet of sole.
Your best salad. An lea And demi
tasse.”
“In your room. Miss Shayne?”
the waiter asked.
“No. I want dinner for two. And
tbo corner table if it isn't taken "
The corner table was cleverly
concealed behind palms. Henri him
self would serve the dinner. He
would see that the food was excel
lent Saturday night was a night
of festivity at the Grandmore.
There was always dancing there on
Saturdays and music through tbo
dinner hour.
Seated in the dining room.
Sheila discounted her earlier fears.
Sbe looked across at Jerry and was
sure he did love her. “Maybe." she
thought, “he'll come to sec me off
when the train leaves, after alL"
But Jerry did not suggest It
When the dinner was over he m
corted her to the stage door. Sheila
clung to him.
“Goodby. dear.” he said softly.
“Then you can’t—?“ Her voice
broke.
Jerry shook his bead. “Don't see
how I could make It” He kissed
her gently. "Where do you play
next?”
"Burton."
"Ah!” Jerry's tone was brighter.
He released her arm as a chorus
man. whistling, turned inlo the al
leyway leading to the stage door.
“Burton! That's only four hours
away. Suppose 1 sec you—say,
Wednesday evening—for dinner?"
Wednesday they would play s
matinee in Burton. It meant a
hard day.
"You stay at the Mausion House,
of course?” Jerry went on.
Sheila nodded.
“Then suppose wo make It
Wednesday. It will lie a rial cele
bration. I’ll call you after the show
Tuesday night Just to remind you."
As if ah* needed r. minding! 1
“That will lie line." Sheila agreed.^
“Look here. If there's any party
on or anything don’t wait for my
j call Go ahead and enjoy yourself.
If I don’t get you I'll write or come
anyhow. Keep Wednesday open."
“But call me. Jerry!”
• • •
LWCING departure, his words
had sounded comforting. A
date with Jerry who would travel
four hours to meet her. Jerry who
had not moved a little linger to
sec her while she had been in
I Spencer!
But she would not sec him on
Wednesday. Sheila danced exyuis
ilely that night. Everyone said so.
She reappeared for encore after eo
core.
Listen, baby, let those folks go
home! We don’t want to miss our
train,” t lie comedian vrged as
panting and spent, Sheila l*>aned
against a painted tree in the
wrings.
Had her audience been able to
see her then, it might have shown
inert y. The applause became deaf
ening. The stage manager nodded
and the orchestra again began
playing Sheilas number. With a
sigh hardly audible, she overca/Ei
her weariness. She fluttered to the
entrance to the stage, smiling, elec
trifled.
She had to go through the cn
‘11 ' , ' 4 1 ; 1
lie jusl a few steps and a kiss of
her baud. After six Intricate
dances that 6bould have sufficed.
But it did not suffice. Tripping
whirling, weaving, fluttering. b<^
I head thrown back, her eyes stajf^
I Sheila went through the complete
routine. Watching her, as be hac
watched her a hundred times, thi
comedian marveled. Was this a!r>
hgure the weary, drooping girl wh<
hardly five minutes earlier hac
stood near him in the wings?
All at ouce it wus over. Once
more Sheila stood beside him. Her
breast rose and fell in long, deep
: breaths.
I “All lur
She nodded and sank into a
; chair without speaking.
"It s a tough life.” ue remarked,
sympathetically.
She smiled back at him. "Yea"
But life would be easier. It was
easier for those girls sbe bad seen
sitting out In front, watching her.
It would be easier—some day—for
her. Sheila was not deceiving her
self, however. How c_ aid life be
happier with Jerry Wyman »*•
changeable and insincere?
