riculture. services of D. W. Porter,
low water dam division engineer,
will be available to plan and super-
intend construction of the artificial
lake at the Cuero State Park it

Porter was a visitor in Cuero
Monday morning and surveyed the
park property located at the edge
of the city. He will return to Aus-
tin, draw his plans and return to
CUero to personally superintend
building of the lake which will cover
some five acres. The state depart-
ment will also stock the lake with
fish, Porter announced.
This courtesy on the part of the
State Commissioner of Agriculture
is the second he has shown the peo-
ple of this section during the past
few months. Recently he placed a
$1,000 stallion on the farm of Dr.
Chas. D. Peavy here to improve
the breed of horseflesh in this sec-
tion of Texas.

/SHE'S THE GIRL
WHO HANDLES YOUR
TELEPHONE CALLS
This is the girl who handles vour telephone calls.
Every part of the far-flung Bell .System organiza-
tion exists largely to help her do the best possible
job of connecting you with the people to whom
you want to talk.
Linemen cling to icy poles to keep the voice-paths
open to her touch. Staff experts of American Tele-
phone & Telegraph Company, parent company of
the System, hunt better methods for her to use.
Scientists of Bell Telephone Laboratories seek new
inventions to place at her finger-tips.
And the factories and shops of Western Electric,
Supply unit of the Bell System, are busy making
the insulators, the wires and the equiprnent she
needs to flash your voice around the block, across
the state, or across the nation.
It is largely because this group of specialized or-
ganizations stands behind her...and has done its
job so well for her... thfit she is able to give you
the good, economical telephone service you re-
ceive today. i

Ethiopian City
Bombed After
Natives Revolt
ADDIS. ABABA, Nov. 18.—(INS.)
—The Ethiopian population in the
Enderta region, in which Mal^ale is
located, staged a revolt against the
Italian occupation and in turn were
bomber by Italian war planes, it
was stated in an official Ethiopian
announcement here today.
The Ethiopians revolted because
the Italians carried off grain for
their armies without paying for'it,
the announcement charged.
The population presumably was
suppressed by the bombing attack.

Sunday, November 24. he an- |location for its No. 1 Kastner
nounced today. They are a stud, northeast offset to the Trans-State
Kent ?
“I think it was—my wife—”
"Oh! How perfectly sweet of
. her! You know, Kent, I think sheV
such a pretty woman!”
"Um.” He was busy lighting a
cigarette.
“Yes,” Julie pursued, “she has
the loveliest lines >from here to
here—” Julie illustrated on her-
self the lines from her neck to her
thighs. Kent followed the gesture
with his eyes. Julie perched her-
self on the arm of the low sofa and
drmfr her knees up under her chin
like a little black and gold elf.
“Isn’t it wonderful to have long,
flowing lines like that?”
Kent was not listening. He went
over to her suddenly and scrutinized
her briefly from head to toe. . . .
''Incredible!” he muttered.
“What?” she asked.
“The size of you! Yon’re just a
miniature woman!" And he picked
her np and lagged her over to • big
* chair and damped her in it.
“There. ’ Now I want to tell yon
that I’ve got a swell story lined up
for yon—South Sea
’^Really?” She sat up. “Already?
Aren’t counting your thickens too
soon, or anything like that?” She
cocke,d her head on one side and
looked at him tantalizingly.
• “Julie, yon wouldn’t go back on
me?” he exclaimed in alarm. Bnt
he ’loved the excitement of feeling
that she might.
“I don’t Know. When my con-
, tract’s up, I can do as I please.
Sign again with them — or with
you—or get married.” She looked
, at him through half-closed lashes,
blowing smoke at him.
“Get married?” He hadn’t
thought of that. The excitement of
the chase monnted. “Who’s the
man?”
• • “Oh, I have lots of chances to loll
it my ease in yachts and town
houses, instead of pulling the old
body out of bed at seven A.M. to
make np and be on the set at pine
•very morning!"
He grinned at her. “So you want
tj> loll at ease, eh? Where are these
said yacht-and-town-house own-
ers?”
“I sent ’em off down the beach to
another party when I heard yon
were here.”
. “Really? I get first choice?” He
reached forward to seize her hands
and pull her over into his lap. “So
Aow I know you won’t go back on
mi;
“I’m not promising anything. A
millionaire husband has his advan-
tages.” She climbed off his lap and
went to the mirror to inspect her-
self. “Do you think I’d look good
blonde?" she asked anxiously.
“Listen to me, Julie.” Kent came
up behind her and swung her
* around to face him. “There isn’t
really another man? '
“What do you mean—another?”
she asked quickly.
“I mean—look here, Julie, yon
know how I feel about yon—”
“Yes?” she prompted eagerly,
leaning against him ever so little.
“1 want yon with me. Look what
I’ve done today.” He took a paper
. from his pocket and waved it be-
fore her eyes. “Got your company
to agree to let me buy your contract
for the rest of the year—with yOur
consent, of course.”
“Oh, they were' willing to sell,
then’”
, '“They held me up, of course,”
said grimly. “Now you aren’t goi
back on me, are you, Julie?”
• “Well, I couldn’t—for the rest of
this year. But—” she temporined,
“I- do want to be married, Ken
have a home like other girls—
lips trembled and the ready tears
stood in her eyes. '“I can’t promise
what I’ll do at the end of this con-
tract!”
He walked away from her mood-
ily and*looked out at the ocean, jin-
gling the keys in his pocket. She
came to feini presently and slid un-
der his arm, smiliiwrup at him with
dewy eyes.
“Not mad at me, Kent?”
“No, but I do believe I'm furious-
ly jealous!"

delightedly
She laughed delightedly and
pulled down hi3 tyoad k1S3 bim.
Then she danced awjay to the door.
‘Come on, darling, fejt’s swim. There
are men’s suits down in the dress-
ing room. I’ll show you.” He hesi-
tated, glancing at his watch.
“Afraid your wife will see you
with me again?” she teased slyly.
“No,” he said shoHIy. “She's at
home going over accounts with her
lawyer. Besides, she wouldn’t care
if she did see me with you.”
Julie shook her head wonder-
ingly. “Gosh, what little sense that
woman has!” she commented with
complacence.
Kent’s face hardened. “AH right,
let’s swim!”

In Beverly Hills that OTSfrh after-
noon, a disagreeable new word was
being dinned into Sharlene’s ears:
Retrench. It seemed that the fac-
tory was on half production, and
the oil wells throttled down to prac-
tically nothing. Certain stocks were
perilously low and others worth-
less. She was advimd to look ahead
and watch her ejBnditnres, for
heaven only knew how long this de-
pression would last.
“Your ^charities,” scolded Mr.
Folsom, “are on an absurdly lavish
pre-depression scale. I suggest you
cut down on them—”
“No, we won’t change those plans
till we have to,” Sharlene decided.
“There must be other ways to re-
trench.”
After Mr. Folsom had gone
Sharlene sat there in a maze of
papers covered with figures, really
thinking about'money, for the first
time in her life. There Leigh Dam-
erell found her when he tame
storming in from the office they had
established in Hollywood.
“D’you know what he’s done
now?” he expired without any pre-
liminaries.
“Kent?” She dragged her mind
away from the frightening figures
and .smiled uA at the frowning
young man. “No. What’s he done?”
“He couldn't wait for De Vore to
finish her contract. Oh, no! He
had to go and buy it from the com-
pany, so he could have her the rest
of this year!”
“Leigh! Why, that must have
cost—” ’
“Too much! It isn’t as if we
couldn't get actresses a3 good—or
better—for less money. The town’s
full of 'em.1*
Leigh walked about restlessly as
he talked aid helped himself to ice
water from Sharlene’s carafe. “I
don’t think the company thought
she was so hot—or they wouldn't
have sold at any price. Kent makes
me sick!”
“Why,” Sharlene-’s voice was a
bit odd, “why was he so deter-
mined, Leigh?’*
“Because he thought he couldh’t
have her. You know how Kent is:
Just let him think be can’t have a
thing—and he moves heaven and
earth till he gets it.”
“I wondeij" said Sharlene
thoughtfully, *nf he’s always satis-
fied then."
“Never! Once he’s won his way,
he’s through, he’s not interested
any more. Of course, this will be
different, I hope. After alj, De
Vore’s not a game, she’s an invest-
ment. But I think the initial out-
lay is too much.”
“At a time like this, yes,” agreed
Sharlene, stirring the papers on her
desk with a slim finger. “Did you
try to argue him out of it?”
“Argue? Say, I’ve done nothing
else but. I should'have known bet-
ter. When he was a kid, father and
mother knew that the way to get
him to do anything was to argue on
the other side. Obstacles only whet
that boy’s appetite to win. Take
Cora, for; instance.” . . .
Shariepe glanced up quickly,
holding her breath.- Leigh, floun-
dering up and down the room, kick-
ing a Cushion, did not notice. He
went off: *
“Cora seemed nn&ttainable. He
couldn’t rest until he’d made her
love him. Then he didn’t care any
more—he'd won!”
“But, he married her—” Shar-
lene began.
He owed her that; he should
have done it years ago.”
But,* Leigh, don’t you see how
sporting it was for him to marry
heri—when he did?” •
“Sporting!” Lqigh snorted. “He
didn’t’ think he was taking any
chance.' The doctor told him khe
was going to die. That’s why I
couldn’t get him to phone you about
it—before he did it. He thought his
usujal.good luck would hold and no-
body would ever know it. Even
when she got better, he thought it
would come out all right. Then you
did the unexpected, running off and
getting married. He’d counted on
your sticking through anything.”
“And I failed,” Sharlene said un-
Tl* never forgiven my-
as*
“Don’t he iffly! Yon gave him a
new hurdle, dont yon see? You
were going to be hard to get. That
was what he wm looking forward
to—”
“While he wn being so good to
Oora?” •
“Good? Well, if yon like to put
it that way. He dragged her around
with him to save talk. There’d
been enough of that. He saw her as
little as possible. In the Islands he
devoted himself to sports. He had
a grand time; he always has a
grand time. That boy has a great
zest for living—M long as there’s
something he can’t have, just
ahead.” . . .
There was a long silence. Shar-
lene lay back in her chair looking
father pale. “Leigh,” she said at
last, “you’ve just shattered a cher-
ished illusion.”
“What do you mean?” ne halted
to look at her in trepidation. “Have
I been talking oat of turn—about
Cora?”
“No. It’s just^I’d always pic-
tured Rent as being—oh, very ten-
der and wonderful to Cora—”
“Huh? But you know Kent’s not
like that. Now, is he?”
“Well, really—it’s hard for me to
separate my conception of Kent
from Kent as he js,* I guess—”
“Sure. You thought of him as
doing What you’d do under the cir-
cumstances—but Kent’s a he-man,
Sharlene. He’s got a lot of grand
points, but being tender isn’t on&of
them. And get the idea out of ymjr
head that you’ve got to make up to
him for anything you did. I can’t
go that. Makes me think too much
of Cora—poor thing!” \
Sharlene had been sacking the
papers on her desk. They fell over
and scattered again all over the
place. -Leigh helped to pick them
up.
“Like the well-known house bf
cards, Leigh,” she was trying to
smile, “collapsing all about me.”
He looked up at her sharply
from where he was kneeling on the
floor. “I haven’t worried you, have
I Sharlene? You must know Kent
as well as I do, by now. Unless you
prefer to pretend.”
“Yes, I know him pretty well,”
she said slowly, unwillingly.
“Don’t ever think that jrtmr place
m his wife can be assailed, my dear.
You’re secure. You’re this family—
like me or his mother. But what I
mean is you’ve got to face the idea
of his chasing off after some new
game any minute. And wasting
money on it, too, jike this De Vore
deal. Just one of the things we’ve
got to reckon with.”
“I see.” Sharlene got np slowly
and smiled dimly at him. “There
comes a time, I suppose, in every
wife’s life when she no longer looks
on her husband aa a hero. Well—
I’d better dress for dinner. Kent
will soon be home.”
Leigh watched her drift away to
her bedroom and bit his lip sav-
agely. Maybe he’d said too much.
But . . . he had not told her that
one of the bills he had fonnd that
day down at the office was for a
five-thousand-dollar diamond brace-
let engraved “Julie.” , The flimsy
excuse of preparing Miss De Vore
to accept a contract with the Dem-
erell Production Company was
wearing pretty thin.
