Diners will be taken and remain with the special train constantly. There will be entertainment of various sorts on the train. A band will accompany the party. Stops will be made at Taft, Bakersfield, Tulare, Hanford, Visalia, Porterville, Lindsay, Exeter, Dinuba, Reedley, Sanger and Fresno. The Southern Pacific Railroad officials have promised the chamber one of the best equipped special trains that ever left Los Angeles.

It will be appropriately decorated and souvenirs various commercial houses represented will be taken for distribution throughout the valley towns. WELL KNOWN RAILWAY MAN ANSWERS DEATH William A.

LOVE BY KATHERINE MOORE Chapter 24 A LETTER FROM LEONARD When I left Thierry Brunswick I went to my room and did some thinking. I tried to analyze what had happened. I had been indulging in emotions -emotions which I believed only Leonard could arouse. Granted, my feelings had not been very wild or deep, but the fact remained that I had been stirred. Had I been very blind, ignorant of human nature? Could I blame another for what I had done myselfeven if the other was my own husband? I thought of Thierry.

Then thought of Mrs. Darwood. So unlike in motive and personality--yet they were both bold and daring with their overtures. The boy I could not blame, but the -woman? Yes, the blame belonged there. She was a vampire.

Leonard! Leonard! If only could see him now and talk with him. I flung -myself on the bed, and buried my face in the pillows. Life had unfolded another of its many sides to me. Would I come out of it bigger and fairer minded? clenched my hands, but tears did not come to my eyes. After a while I got up and prepared myself for bed.

I looked at myself in the mirror. The lines had deepened about my eyes and mouth. looked older. I felt older. But in the morning I felt better.

had passed another milestone in my moral existence. Perhaps I felt a trifle more worldly. I laughed outright at the thought. Sunshine and blue sky bring a decidedly more rational viewpoint. I did not see Thierry at breakfast.

Nor did I see him again for two days. I was relieved. I liked the boy, but his boyishness was not what my mood called for. The mail brought me another letter from Leonard. I rushed to my room and consumed it with pleasurable satisfaction.

-could you he wrote, "what recipe you use for pan cakes? Emma's are rotten; I don't like to tell her so;" he you could send her your recipe. Pretend you forgot to leave It. with her in your hurry to get off." I read on, with warm tears of joy welding up in my eyes. -the house is like a cave. I keep away from it as much as possible.

Will take the 5:27 train next Friday, night and get there in time for late dinner with you. Planning things so I can surely get away." Not quite a week more! Yet when I measured in feelings the four days just passed, the sparse week to come seemed an eternity. I sat right down and answered Leonard's with a long love letterpast events and his letter quickening the love in my herat and the spontaniety of my pen. Even a paper talk with him calmed and steadied me. I wrote out my, pan-cake recipe on a separate piece of paper and enclosed it for Emma.

Leonard was such a kid about pan-cakes. I hoped they had not forgotten to water the Boston fern. I made a remark about the ferns in the hotel not being any finer than mine to jog his memory. did not like to speak of it directly. Perhaps he had not forgotten it at all and I would hurt his feelings.

He did take an interest in things. Most men were regular Indians around the house, but Leonard had such a fine sense of appreciation. Grace Robinson's husband had actually burned a hole in the top of their lovely mahogany library table with his cigar. And Grace said he never noticed the little things she fixed around the house. She had made a perfectly wonderful parlor curtains with lace insertion that it had taken her just ages to do, and they were up a month before he noticed them.

Dear Leonard -how I ached -for the comfort of his strong arms! (To be Continued) A PROTEST Dudley, April 17, 1921, I wish to protest against the 1150 of my son's name in the Elder-Battenfeld trial. There was no Ed Orchard in the case and no one nows it better than Wesley Battenfeld. I give thanks to God that my boys are not that kind. Avis idolized Wes and his was her law. If Avis made statement in regard to "Ed word Orchard" the "red-headed boy" and the "someone else." sworn to by Wes Battenfeld, at whost instigation was it made? (612) MRS.
