Camilla was absorbed with her new work. She lived with, by and for It. She sketched and planned at the office •II day. was on the alert for new ideas and characteristics in her pub lic contacts. She visioned her Tiny Tots in their amusing exploits while •hs followed Rose's patient instruc tion* regarding her share of tk e household tasks, went to sleep with them in her thoughts. Os course, she thought about Peter, too- the thoughts squeezed In deli ciously with the crowding, peremp tory ones that demanded most of her attention, much as Peter’s thoughts of Camilla trespassed into his work ing hours. She saw him occasionally, too, but not as often as formerly. It would not always be like that, they told themselves and each other, with blithe w'ords and wistful hearts. Just now, the paramount Issue for each of them was to make a temporary success which would levelop a greater future. Camilla believed that If she made good In the first months of the Wheatheart Cereal campaign, the fu ture would smooth Itself out into days less arduous and anxious, when she might devote much more of her self and her time to Peter. The first terms of their marriage plans had been that nothing should interfere with their Individual ambitions. Those terms were unequivocal and each adhered bravely to them, even though the effort cost them incalcul able hour* of tonetlnesa and longing. But. as every plan has Its salient advantages, it has its weaknesses, also. It never occurred to either of them that the very stimulus of hu man companionship and relaxation of leisure hours which they were de nying themselves In the satisfaction of each other, they were absorbing from others less gratifying. While Camilla thought that she was contributing more inspiration to Peter’s work by leaving him alone; and he believed that because he could not take care of her. be had no right to expect her to share his meager, anxious existence Had they only been as wise as they believed they were, she would have realized that nothing could have contributed so richly to his Inspiration as her self. and he would have known that, loving him as she did. every meager, anxious hour of his life that she did not share was a precious Jewel lost somewhere along the way to regret. The first cloud of discord between them appeared on the horizon when she bad been working at the office for a month and was gaining con fidence In herself rapidly. She had arrived at the studio one Sunday afternoon earlier than Peter had ex pected her. and found him working on a large color advertisement for a transportation company. Her re actions were due not so much to the fact that he was doing the work, but to her surprise that he had said nothing to her about It and seemed reluctant even then to tell her about It. He bad kissed her rather perfunc torily in greeting and hastened to dispose of his work. Usually, he pro ceeded with whatever he was doing when she interrupted him. "Did I disturb you by coming In early?" She was contrite. "I’m sorry. It was such a glorious afternoon and there wasn't another thing to do at the apartment—oh. I am getting to be a very efficient housekeeper—and I Just couldn't wait longer to see you." she confessed Anally. "That’s more !lke It," Peter laughed, clapping her to him sud denly and looking down Into her deep eyea tenderly. "Os course, your coming earlier doesn't disturb my work. It does me. though. You are together, they disbanded to meet again under the oaks at the end of another summer. Middleburg News By MRS. J. R. CARROLL. Mrs. Robert Henderson and little daughter of \Kentucky, Mrs. Frank Davis, Mira Miry Davis and Luther Davis of Macon, were visitors here a few days ago. Mrs. Sallie R. Vaughan of Towns ville, has been visiting her aunt, Mrs. Carroll for several days. Mrs. Carl Watkins, and little sons, Carl. Jr., and Billy have returned from Fayetteville where she visited her mother. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Fleming V Raleigh ere expected to visit E. I* Fleming this week-end. Jamie Carroll, rs Erwin,, end Miss Florence Carroll of Oxford, will spend this week-end here. Alfred Fleming spent the week with fiflfe L. more loveiy every tune i see you. and that isn't often enough, pre cious. 1 was only trying to keep ousy so the time would pass more quickly until you came. How's everything7" ‘•Wonderful. Peter. I'm sure my work is going over big—l just have a bunch it Is. because I'm so happy over it. I guess. 1 am happier every day." Her face glowed wtiii a reflec tion of her felicity. As if a cljlll had suddenly cooled j his ardor, Peter's eyes grew somber and a mask of gravity dropped down over his face. His words seemed to Camilla to come suddenly from far away. "The less you see of me. the happier you are." He laughed a lit tle. but it was a mirthless attempt to conceal the bitterness of the jeal ous male who Is helpless to defend himself. Such Jealousy is always both unreasoning and unreasonable. Peter drew away and began to gather up his working materials from the table with swift movements Camilla wondered frantically if she only imagined the sudden change in his manner. She made a desperate effort to sound casual when she asked, taking oft her hat and jacket. “What’s this you are doing now?" "Oh. nothing much," evasively. "Something new. isn't It?” She ap proached the table and saw that the huge card was * sort-tone photo graph of a bus terminal which Peter had been tinting with water colors. Camilla looked up at him Inquiringly. He flushed slightly and did not meet her eyes. "Oh. you will say It's kindergarten stuff compared with your advertising copy. 1 wasn't go ing to show it to you. I'm only do ing It for the cash. So I can hold out with my work for the rest of the month." "Why, of course why shouldn’t you do It, If you can spare the time? It looks fine—for what it la" “For what It -is,” he agreed tone lessly. "Why, Peter, what's the matter with you?" “Oh.” Impatiently, *t tears me to pieces to have to grub like that for a little money. It isn't that 1 mind the extra work. I’d rather dig sew ers, for that matter. Only I have to save my dignity—ls any—by staying in the art line —if by any contortion of the Jmagi nation anyone ootrid’cal I that art" She knew that his bitter impatience was a culmination of overwork and anxiety. But the effort which she made to soothe his re sentment was like touching a match to a fuse. “Oh. Peter. It’s a rotten shame that you have to humiliate your own pride and sacrifice your precious time for. the sake of a few paltry dollars, while some people have so much wealth they can't even think up ways to us* a fraction of it.” “No use to talk about that. The world's been like that ever since it was started long enough for some to get ahead in the race. Those tn the rear are either poor runners or vic tims of circumstances one way or another. They're carrying too much lead or got a bad break. Some wilt catch up In time, some of the lead ers get behind; but they can't all come In first, or even second or thlrd "l know, but even a thoroughbred needs a fair chance. Too much of the time, the race is ’fixed”’ "Sometimes I feel that way. too. but I’m gping to keep up the pace until I reach the tape and find out." "Os course you will—and you may be the one to break it" She smiled encouragement and stroked hts cheek fondly. He had dropped into a chair and pulled her down beside him as they often sat while they talked. “But there Is so much lack of balance and futlte waste cf real tal ent." she continued. "I waß just thinking of the time Mother Hojrt The rain was welcome and the fall gardens have a chance now. Mrs. Henry White, Mrs. Fannie White and Miss Alin White of Drew ry, were visitors here this week. Mira Mary Rospline Tarry, Miss Fannie Hunt Tarry and Miss Hen rietta Fox had a swimming party at the pool here and a wienie roast af terwards. Rev. J. S. Ker.nlson, preached at Brookston his regular appointment last Sunday night at 8 o’clock. John Turner visited Frank Spain on Tuesday. The Grange met on Wednesday. The program was interesting and at tractive to the crowd. BobbtftNews By RtISS MARION WOODUEF Mrs. P. C. Smith has returned home from Durham where she visited re latives tor ibe past week. Miss Florine Smith was a visitor to last Tuesday. Miss Fannie Mae Johnson and Miss. FSj-dls fit £few Yolk Cit £ were gueels whs ui ncr wits ena to Know wnat to give dad for his birthday. Not that she particularly desired to give him anything, but it was one of her pet customs to remember anniversaries with . impressive and appropriate gifts. He had everything and more than he needed. But she Anally hit upon the Idea of a gold keytainer. “1 went with her to the jewelers' when she bought It. and remember that 1 thought It was silly to pay so much for a thing that looked no bet ter than the average metal keytainer. though 1 was quite young then. It cost a hundred dollars, but that was only the beginning of the idea She had his keys copied in solid gold to go with it and each of them engraved with his monogram. 1 believe th* whole thing cost the trifling sum mt five or six hundred dollars. “Did lie like It?" amused. “He had to seem appreciative. B«t I’ll bet he never used his keys again without thinking how many boxes of Wheatheart Cereal profit they represented.” "Well, you have to consider that from another viewpoint, too." he conceded. "I’ll bet that jeweler and the locksmith who made the keya and the metallurgists and all th* workmen involved on down the line wfre thankful for her extravagant v/.itin. Maybe there was even a j>oor. struggling sculptor somewhere along the line who profited a little by the transaction, indirectly. That's what wealth is for. to keep the ball roll ing . along so everyone can have a grab at it. That's what most of the trouble Is now. Too many people have stopped playing the game and are waiting for the other fellotv to begin while they watch from the sidelines.” "I’m glad you gave me the Idea that the gold Keytainer might have done someone good, after all. I never thought of It that way." "Hure—like the fellow down the street here who runs the little flower shop. He was telling me yesterday that he used to count big on order* for the patients In the hospital across the park, but lots of those orders are killed now because someone got the Idea that flowers were an extrava gant luxury In the depression. They think they are being noble to refuse to accept flpH’eys and have the motley added tb'charity funds. Clubs, socie ties and individuals are taking it up. And where does that get 'em? More charity for the shiftless and less work for people who want to make an honeet living! Funny howr minds follow the leader blindly, like sheep. No matter what kind of a silly Idea jumps over the fence, a whole flock follows." "But don’t you think that’s rather sweet to know that the money which might have bought flowers for you tliat you don't need, is feeding some poor child?" “No. I don’t. Look here, what good does that do if the kid’s father had been driving a truck for a florist and lost his Job because everybody quit buying flowers? Not only the driver is involved, either. There's the flor ist and his employes, the growers and their gardeners, the seedsmen, the flower box manufacturers—it*s endlofia Suppose I worked In a flower shop or a greenhouse to get by while I’m studying. I've done al most everything. It’s all the same principle." Camilla mused. “Why, that's right. 1 never thought of It that way be fore. No wonder the world gets mixed up every *o often. Jt’s an awful tangle. Isn't It?" "It's a million tangles all snarled up" So far. the discussion had been impersonal enough, but It was Camilla's next remark that caused the epark.
