BY BRUCE CATTON === | Sentimentalists have been Qquietly weeping into beer over the passing of the sailing ship for ; a weary year. But William McKee, veteran mermer and author, rises in current issue of “To- Gay” to remark that the sailing ship is still going 4o be sure, the old-time square rigger has just gbout vamished. But the schooner, the barkentine, and lesser varieties of the fore-and-aft rigged ves el are still doing a good business; indeed, says Mr. McFee, there ave probaply more ships of 40 or 50 ons under gail today than there were in the days of ‘rancis Drake. : b But the old square-rigger, of course, is a rare glght on modern scas; and Mr. McFee suspects that jt was the very hardships of the life she offered to her people that make men lament her passing. Should world suddenly run out of fuel, he remarks, so ““t“ its ocean commerce would have to depend again on the out-moded full-rigged ship, we would see & reat dutpouring of young men eager to sign on as hese men, he says, would come from everywhere— | J gas stationg and banks, from college lecturel pooms and schoolteachers’ desks, from chain stores and stockbrokers' offices; all that would be needed ' would be to pass the word “that men were wanted to man ships, not floating hotelg or steam-driven | k houses, and the men would come in a hwry."‘ .

While we are celebrating the ‘incoming of the new year, let us not for get the benefits and blessings we received daring the passing year of 1935. While business conditions were not as prosper ous as they were prior to 1929, yet the improvement was notably stable and on the upward trend to normalcy. The new year promises increased im provements in all lines of business. Con fidence is being restored; industries in all lines are resuming operation and the un empioyed situation is showing large de creases in all sections of the nation. It is a time for encouragement and rejoicing over a condition that is bound to bring better times and prosperity to the people in all walks of life. The Banner-Herald is appreciative of the patronage it has received from foreign and local advertisers and its subscribers, which has made it possible for this news paper to render a service to the commun itfir which it hopes has been beneficial to all, For the new year, we extend greetings to our friends and patrons, wishing for them happiness and prosperity. AN EXCELLENT RECORD After a service of a decade to the peo ple of Athens, Mayor A. G. Dudley will retire from office Wednesday noon. Ten years ago Mr. Dudley assumed the duties of the office of mayor of this muni cipality. He found the city heavily in volved financially, owing the banks of the city $116,000.00 in addition to current ac counts of a considerable sum. He adopted a policy of retrenchment, reorganizing the financial system that had been employed in the past, and commenced a new and more constructive and business form of government. Under his administration, the city has prospered; permanent im provements have been carried on by pav ing more streets, building concrete brid ges and replacing wocden bridges with cubstantial material. He has kept the af fairs of the city up to a high standard of excellency, and when he retives from of fice Wednesday, will turn over to his suc cessor a clean and balanced sheet with #0 obligations, except the bonded indebted ness of the city which is provided for an nually by allocation to the bond commis sion by the mayor and council. The Banner-Herald, on behalf of the people of Athens, express appreciation ‘and commendation for the splendid serv .ces rendered by Mayor Dudley, and ex tends to the new mayor, Hon, T. S. Mell, every good wish for a successful admin 'istration. APPRECIATION OF FINLAND It has been suggested that some consid eration should be shown the little country of Finland for its prompt payment of the loan made to it by the United States dur ing the days of the World War. Since that time, the officials of that country have not failed to meet their cbligations promptly. -No other foreign country has kept faith with the United States, out they have purposely avoided even the payment of interest. Such action on the part of the rich nations is inexcusable and without foundation or justification. In Washington, officials have suggested that a por.ion of the payments being made by Finland be set aside for scholarship funds for the education of Finnish young men and women in the universities of this country. The suggestion i~ not only wise, pul 1¢ 18 one deserving action on the part 'lof the officials, who have the power ana authority to so direct such funds for this lspecmc purpose. MULTIPLICIITY OF LAWS - One of the greatest services congress and state legislatures could render to the ‘people would be the repeal of the multi plicity of laws that have beer enacted in |recent yvears. The codes of the various 'states are loaded down with conflicting laws, so that it is practically impossible to |convict criminals. There is a law for the opening of an avenue through which | criminals, after conviction, can secure a new trial, and often are released on some imsound technicality. An article appearing in a recent issue of Liberty Magazine, contains enlighten ing information, sane and sound. It reads: “If we were to go back to the Ten Com mandments and to the general principles of law as expounded by Blackstone, and if we were to burn every law book that records the thousands of legal restrictions that were enacted after our country was definitely organized, many complications that bar the way to justice would be re moved.” The foregoing .is filled with food for thought. If our representatives in the leg islatures and in congress would consider and act accordingly as suggested, the states and nation would be much better !off.

Before her marriage, she had broken with wealthy Ronald Moore. Dana’s half-sister, Nancy, is in love with Ronald but hides it behind an antag onistic attitude. Both Mrs. Cameron and Paula Long, who has loved Scott for years, hope the mar riage will go on the rocks, Paula, a patient of Scott’s, . is always ca'ling him, and managing to see him at par ties. Dana has become aware of Paula’s infatuation. Scott, deeply in love with his wife, is uncomfortable over the situa tion. ¢ One stormy night Paula’s housekeeper calls Scott and tells him Paula is ill. He goes to see her and Paula con fesses her love for him. When Scott's indifference and ‘con tempt reveal to Paula the hoplessness of her love, she pretends good sportsmanship and asks him to have a drink with her. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXXII. * Scott lifted his glass from the tray. Paula was showing herself to be game, all right. She hadn't vhimpered or made a plea for sympathy. when "he told her he tnew the truth. - Then, like a flash, came the oremonition, Was she, though? Jould you trust an emotional voman in a state like this? It may have been Paula's ex oression that warned him. There was a glow of triumph and trag »dy in her eyes. Scott dashed hir zlass and its contents to the door. As quickly, Paula put her (dps to her own glass, but Scott’'s nand shot out, knocking it aside. Paula crumpled, sobbing. They were jerking sobs that sounded horrible and pitiful. Scott lifted her and called to Charlotte loudly. Together they worked swiftly. He was fairly certain that Paula had not swal lowed any of the poisoned drink, but he could not take chances. They worked over her exactly as though she had taken a fatal quantity. = An hour later Scott talked frankly with Charlotte. 'There had been no need for explana tions. Charlotte’s horrified glance at the broken glasses and trail of liquor on the floor and told her the story. It was Charlotte who located the poison tablets and dropped them into. the fire, while Scott watched gravely. Quited -by a sleeping powder, Paula at last dropped into sleep. Her face was pale on the pillow. A thin hand gripped the dainty lace coverlet convulsively. Scott stayed, quietly watching as she slept, waiting for any un natural reaction. Across from him sat Charlotte, her e€yes scarcely moving from Paula's face. ~ Scott said in a low tone, “I can trust you, Charlotte. No one ‘must know of this—or the other. Soon we'll get Miss Paula away where she can be treated and cured.” : “You can trust me, Doctor Scott,” the housekeeper said. “She’s like my own. You know I've been with her since she was 12 years cld.” ¢ § Scott remembered. He was thinking that Paula had never known ‘real home lite. Charlotte had been the maid of Paula’s assumed full charge when the roung mother died. Paula's father was somewhere, but he had been divorced by Paula’s mother and re-married before her death. Paula’'s money had been inherited from her mother. Poor Paula, Scott thought, com passionately, stretching out for happiness with her eager, rest less hands. When it eluded her, she had tried to smash things for both of them. + He was as certain as though he ad analyzed the drink Paula had anded him that it also had con tained poison. But he felt only pity for the distraught -creature lying motionless on -the bed, as though she were in that deep sleep of complete forgetfulness for which she had longed. i At dawn a nurse arrived to take 4 rge. She, of course, must know of her patient’s attempt at suicide to be on guard. She would know the rest, with out being told as soon as she had been on the case a few hours. But Miss Maddox was trust-wor thy, one of that gallant army in whom s£oo many tragic truths are safely buried. Scott let himself into the apart ment and looked around. The place had a solemn air. Must be his own state of mind, he toldl himself. It was natural to feel that way after such an ordeal as he had been through. He switched on a light in the bed room and the tumbled, empty bed met his eyes. There was note pinned to the pillow, with Dana’s name affixed in a shaky scrawl. Scott read the note, smilingl grimly over its childish sound: “‘l'm going to Grandmother’s 10' stay, Scott. I'm going while I can leave with some dignity. Please don’t ask me to come back. 1 don’'t want to—ever. Dana.” His first wild impulse was to get Dana on the telephone to tell’ her what a darn little fool <she was. And then get a cab and fetch her home immediately. But it was 5 o’clock now.l There’d probably be a commotion. Dana’s grandmother was a Tar tar, if he had ever seen one. No it would be best to wait until Dana had calmed down. After some sleep, she would be sorry and probably call to apologize. She owed him an apology for her lack of faith and her a.ttitude,f which was certainly poor sports mapship. ‘ She coudn’'tt have known where he had gone. Even if she had suspected, she might have given him the benefit of doubt and waited for his story. ‘Gradualy Scott worked himself l into a rage. Dana had been fear fully unjust, she had been a poorl sport, but he loved her. He loved her terribly. -And he'd forgive her—omorrow. She would be awfully sorry that| she had failed him when she thought things over. Dglshing] back to her grandmother's the| first time she got really angry with him. In spite of these thoughts Scott was wretchedly unhappy. It was not until the light was streaming broadly into the room through] the windows that he fell into a deep sleep of exhaustion. Dana’s grandmother had ans- | wered the doorbell. In the_ early morning shadows a - taxi bulked.} A taxi driver stood holding a Ssuit cause. Dana’'s stricken eyes we‘re’ lifted to Mrs. Cameron’s. “Here, T'll take that suitcase,” Mrs. Cameron said, assuming charge. “Have you taxi money child?” i “Yes, of course,” , Dana said. | She paid the driver and he was off in the gloom. e mother,” Dana said simply. “Yes, I knew that.” She scru tinized Dana. keenly, noting her eyes, shadowed from fatigue and reddened from weeping. “Don’t ask me why,” Dana said, “because I won’t tell you. It was unbearale antl so here I am!” There was a light of satisfaction in! Mrs. Cameron’s eyes. “I sus pected you’d come to it, child. And I'm happy you had the gump tion to realize it before you lost yvour beauty slaving in a kitch en.” - “I didn't slave!” Dana eried fmpetuously. £lt Avasn’t bedpuse Scott is poor that I ran away!” “Whatever the . reason, <you've made the break. You must never g 0 back to him.” 8 “No,” Dana said. ' Her heart was like lead. And yet it felt bursting with emotion. “I couldn’t go back, Grandmecther. I'd never have come. if I hadn't realized 1 couldn’t go on.” : Their voices brought Miss Catrewe and Nancy. Aunt Ellen patted Dana awkwardly. Dana knew she was sorry for her and she suspected that Aunt Ellen was sorry for Scott, too. It was ‘hard to know how Nancy felt. Her dark- eyes looked wisely w 0 Dana's. Her voice was cool and calm. “So you've left Scott! That's that. Now we've got to make the best of it. I don’t be lieve Scott would want you back, anyway, after humiliating him.” No, Dana thought, miserably. “He wouldn't want me back.” Be cause she had humiliated him by leaving him. And because, most of all, he was infatuated with Paula. But tkis was a secret that would die with her. She'd nevar, if she lived to be a hundred, ad mit that she hadn’'t been able to hold her husband. It was dreadful thinking about living to be a hundred. All those vears without Scoit. Dana looked so crushed, such a wotbegone lit tle figure that Aunt Ellen could scarcely bear to look at her. Tears stung her eyelids. She wondered if the poor child knew what she — Hail the New Year!

It was a serious thing, leaving a husband. Giving up a sweetheart. Aunt Ellen Knew. Septt's grapdfather had beep proud and had never asked her to reconsider, though he had lover her deeply. Nancy had decided: “Dana’s weak. She couldn't stand being poor, so she pulled out.” Mrs. Cameron was first to break the circle. She got up. pulling her robe about her. “V/e'll all take cold sitting here” ‘she said firmly. “Dana looks dead o 1 her feet. She must get some {- . 1 ‘7' Secretly she was girding her re sources for battle. She said -to herself, “The silly child is still in love with him. It's writetn all over her face. If he triés he might be able to persuade her to go back to him. But she'll stay here if I can keep her!” After breakfast Dana sat in the vicinity ‘of the telephone, fully expecting it to ring. But the morning hours wore away and there was no call from Scott. He was showing more judg ment, Mrs. Cameron thought, than she hada expected. Maybe he. too, had decided it was impossible for them to make a success of their marriage. If that were so, the plan she had in mind, could ©be speedily carried out. ; (To Be Continued) MOO!
