THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, AUGUST 5, 1932 PAGEEIGHT ISH EYES | __by KATHLEEN NORRIS 1 thelr sudden appearance had made it necessary to hold them temporarily. On the third day. and Peter were driven to within ing distance of a railroad station. When Sheila reached home her mother coldly asked her where her husband was. A telegram had been received by Mrs, Carscadden, signed with Shella's name and dated Boston, which stated she and Peter had been At noon that day Joe, and Frank McCann, Peter's older brother, had told the news papers that Peter and Shella had elop- od and were married. Shella, angry when her family would not believe her story, declared she was going to leave home forever just as Frank McCann appeared. INSTALMENT NO, 17 "Well, here--here don't be in such s hurry!" Frank said, stopping her with a big, gentle hand. "I've got to ig Sheila told him, breathlessly. "But wait a minute--" "You wouldn't," she told him. You'd get out if your mother and sister and brother all double-cross- od you!" \ Gentle and dark and good-nat- ured, he smiled down at her, not freeing her arm from the grip of his fingers, "Well, I never double-croesed you, did I, Sheila?" "Let me go!" the girl said angrily. Bhe looked up, and for the first time in her life she really saw him, a dark, smiling young man, with Irish blue eyes. "I never double-crossed you, did I?" Frank said. 'The girl spoke dazedly, as if out of a dream. "No, you never double-crossed "8it down, then," he said. Eheila did not move her eyes, "Be a good girl," Frank urged. Suddenly she sat down. She still . watched his face expectantly. "My father is very anxious to see Bheila and you, Mrs, Carscadden, Prank said. "So that we can begin to get all this straightened out. Un- fortunately--unfortunately Joe and I here, gave the thing to the papers at moon today," he added with a rueful laugh. "There was no marriage, it seems now," Joe said. i" "No, but the evening papers nave Joe clicked teeth and tongue. Mrs. Carscadden began a wali, put her fingers over her mouth again. "What alse could we do?" )rank argued. He had put out a big hand and gripped Sheila's fingers as they lay on the table, but he was not looking at her. "We had given the disappearance story to the police Saturday night," he sald. "Then the telegrams came. The quickest way to hush the whole thing up was to tell them that you and Pete had decided to give your families a sur- prise and get married. We made it as--as signified as we could, didn™ we, Joe? We said that this follow ed up 8 friendship begun at Til- ler's Beach last summer--that kind thrilling adventure of her own. The shabby kitchen, the familiar pots and pans, the oilclothcovered table WIth the sticky sugar bowl and the dingy spoons slipped, handle up, in- to a red glass tumbler--all these were before her eyes, but she did :| not see them. She did not see her mother's square, anxious face, un- der her thin, well-brushed gray hair nw Joe's dark features, nor Angela's pale skin and shadowed eyes and aurecle of gold. + But now and then she looke thoughtfully at Frank McCann study ing his face with childlike, vague, serious eyes. He was as dark as Pet- er, with Peter's blue eyes. But his shoulders were squarer and there was something definite, poised about him, He made Peter seem like a little boy. Just the twist of his square mouth, not quite smiling, all sympathetic as he occasionally glanced at her was enough to set her pulses moving to a slow, rhyth- mic beat that seemed to be rock- ing the whole world as well as the heart of Sheila Carscadden. He was so wise, Look at the way Mamma and Joe listened to him and hung on his words! And yet, the quietness of him, the simple, gentle way he suggested things, as if he had no power at all! He didn't have to make any noise to get his way. "Be a good "girl" he had said to her. And had called her "Sheila." After she had run away from all the hatefulness, from this new, ac- cusing, suspicious Angela, and this reproachful Joe, and this totally un- known Ma, then she knew that she would take these magic phrases out cf the very inner chamber of her soul and taste them over and oves 2gain on her tongue. "Now, tomorrow being St. Pat- rick's Day, it's a holiday," Frank was saying. "And rry mother won- dered if you and Joe and Sheila would come down to our house in the morning, Mrs. Carscadden, and then we can talk the whole thing over. There'll probably be a report from the police department by inen and we can give out a statement to the press.and straighten everythine out. And by this time next week," Frank said cheerfully, rising, "every- one will have forgetten all about it. You'll be down?" Ma glanced at Joe, and Joe nodd- ed. "IT will!" Ma then said solemnlv. Frank stood looking at them all. "My mother wants you to know that whatever you think is right, my brother'll do," he said. Mrs. Carscadden Sheila, "It wonldn't be fair to your bro- ther, an' him in love wit' another young lady," she sald. Sheila's bewildered eves went from Prank's serious, handsome face to her mother's face: returned to Frank's again. Color began to stain her cheeks. \ "What are you talking about?" she demawnvied flatly. "Niver you mind, miss!" her moth- er answered. "We feel as if you got the--the rotten end of this, Sheila," Frank explained, with a half-smile. "It might be that you and your moth- er--that all of us--it might be that we felt--" He floundered; his kindly smile finished the sentence. "There's ger'rls that feel they have reputations to lose!" Mrs. Carscadden contributed stingingly. "My father--my brother--we all want to--well, to do whatever we can--" Frank began again. Sheila, disdaining words, laughed scornfully. "Come," Frank said, '"yéu like Pete, you know jou do." glanced at of thing. : "What complicates it." he said, directly to Joe, "is that when sheila | and Pete got to town tonight they, went straight to a police station | and turned in the story. The boot- legger story, I mean. So that what- ever we do now, its--well, itll cause some little confusion," Frank | concluded, with his grave half- smile for the distressed and atten- tive circle. "711 tell the world!" Joe said. "Pana telephoned the police sta- tion," Frank resumed, "and they had already sent a man up to the Broad- way place. We'll get the dope on that, and then well know how to %0 on. Probably the police will take it up at this point." All the time his hand rested lirmlv, encourazingly, on Sheila's and it was as if his snirit had laid quieting hands upon her spirit .as well; she continued to sit docilely peside him, her bright eyes moving shout the circle. She did not, as a matter of fact, pear anything that they were say- ng. She was absorbed in a strange, "Sheila," Angela breathed, "vou love him! You've always loved him. Whv--don't you--" Sheila touched her sister's hand. "Shut-up," she said mildly. An- obey him. She leaned sgainst the dirty wall of the odorous narrow hallway and Frank adressed a few" urgent sentences to her. "Sheila, I know how .you feel, It's been terribly rough on you," Frank began. "But you mustn't blame your folks, What else could they think when those wires came, but that you and Pete had run off to- gether? . "This Ken, whoever he is, must be a smart devil, "Frank went on, as Sheila merely raised her solemn eyes to his without speaking, 'He's probably the brains of the whole outfit. He saw that an elopement would shut us all up, d'you see, and give them time, It's too bad, it's all as rotten as it can be, but it's no- body's fault. You just have to keep your nerve for a few days....... » "Will the morning papers have the story thal we were married?" th girl asked, somberly. "Well, they may. But what do you care, if--"Frank changed the form of his words--" since it's not true?" he asked. "I do care," she said, stubbornly. "Can't you look at the whole thing as a sort of adventure, something that might happen in a movie, say? You and Pete will think this is a great joke, some day." "There's only one thing," Shella began suddenly, after a trouoled study of his handsome, dark face. "I won't marry Peter Mcann, Not if the Church ijtself--" "Listen, listen," he said soothing- ly ,his hand on her arm," you don't ha to get so excited tbout it. You don't have to. You don't have to mary anyone, if you don't want " "I'll become a nun, first!" Sheila whispered, fiercely. She saw Frank's characteristic half-smile brighten his face, "You won't have to go that far." "But if his mother and father ex- pect me to--" Sheila began, anxi- ously. Frank reflected a moment. "They don't," he told her brief- "You're sure they don't?" The man spoke more slowly: "Why they wouldn't want you to do anything you didn't want to do. They might think you wanted to." "Well," she said ,n instant re- lief, "I don't want to." "You know, Sheila," Frank be- gan, and looked away, hesitating "You know, my mother thought," he began again, "that since you and Peter had been shut up in that place for two nights--" He hesitated, and Sheila took I! up defiantly: "Yes, I know. And what's more Peter was in my room that first night, what there was left of it that is. But I don't care! It doesn't make the slightest difference." "It was only a question of justice to you, Sheila." "Well, you can tell your mother that I'm perefctly satisfied!" "Miss Kennedy--my young lady --" Prank prrsisted, "agreed with my mother," "Well, then she doesn't under- stand the way I feel!" Sheila sald hotly. Frank was smiling, as at an an- gry child. "She's a pretty wise young lady Bernadette," he said, as if he were merely thinking aloud. Sheila stood locking at him, panting. "You don't think I ought to marry Peter!" she challenged him "I theought--" Her earnestness affected him in spite of himself, and he looked at her with his kind- est expression. Sheila seemed small and pale, in her scant old cotton gown, with her tumbled cop- pery bang falling con her broad forehead. She had backed against the wall, she was fighting for her life. "I thought you'd want to, Sheila,' Frank said, sympathetically. "Frank!" Suddenly she was cling- ing to him, jumbled against him soft and warm and sweet. "Dont let them make me!" If he said anvthing to her she did not hear it. His arm was about her for a minute, his face against her hair. Then they had drawn apart, and gela was still, "Perhaps, "Sheila suggested, "perhaps you'll let me de- side whether I want to marry any- one or not." : There was a dead silence. Frank broke it suddenly. "Well, we'll get the police onto these gangsters," he summarized it, | standing now, with his brown gloves and his hat in his hand, "and we'll 'deny that there was a marriage, or we'll--we'll settle that some way, and that's all there'll be to it." "you've certainly been awfully kind about the whole thing," Joe muttered, gratefully. "Sheila, step out here ints the hall a minute," Prank said, "I want to speak to you." ' Still disheveled, and pale and with delicate umber circles about her dark blue eyes, Sheila obeyed. It was a marvelous how she liked to News of Nearby Places Raglan (Miss Allie Avery, dent) RAGLAN, Aug. 2.--The annual Luke family picnic was held at Lakeview Park, Oshawa, July 30. About 100/sat down to a bounti- ful lunch but a heavy shower came just as everyone wag seated and spoiled much bf the lunch, also caused much excitement in getting to shelter. In a short time the sun was again shining and a beautiful rainbow appeared. Af- ter all had partaken of the lunch the gports were held which con- sisted of baseball and races for all ages both boys and girls. Pretty prizes were presented to the win- ners.

Newell, B.A., B.D., of Blackstock, had charge of the service and chiose for hig theme "The Chal- lenge of the Lord."

On Monday afternoon, Aug. 1, both girls' and boys' softball games were played messed them. Lunch was served cafeteria style at a very moder- ate price. Shortly after eight o'clock the program which was held in the hall commenced. A drama was presented by the Elite Dramatic Society, of Albert St. United Church, Oshawa, entitled, "Jim- mie, Be Careful." Each was well chosen for his or her part and was well rendered. The cast of characters were as follows: Tillie (The Blakes' maid) --Rita Blake Pleto (her admirer) Norman Williams Emilie Blake (The youmger daughter) ..

This has to be. Without being able to trust in constant, unguided co-operation, no one man could guide a present-day feature pic- ture through all its phases to its com- pleted form. The specialized talents of 1000 per- sons are required to make the average feature picture, At the Fox studio 93 distinct departments contribute some part to each production. Most of these departments are unknown to picture pa- trons. Their work is unseen when the picture is flashed on the screen. They begin alphabetically with "Arsenal" where a collection of weapons from all countries and times is kept, and ends with "Wardrobe, Women's," where Miss Nixon was outfitted for her part in "Rebecca." So while Santell sat at his desk inter- viewing prospective players, while Mar- ian Nixon po Wl § her wardrobe and perfected her hair dress and make-up, while Ralph Bellamy attended to all the details of his preparation, the property, location, mechanical 'and auditing de- sartments all were functioning. Location scouts had been dispatched 0 all parts of the country, after W. F. Fitzgerald, head of the location depart- nent, had instructed them to find the xact spot where Sunnybrook Farm could se re-created in all its rustic simplicity ind outdoor splendor. The men returned, carrying photo jraphs, literature and exhortations from various Chambers of Commerce, each of which maintained that their particu- lar spot in the sun was the most desir- able setting for "Rebecca." From the lot, Santa Cruz, California, was tentatively chosen as the most | likely. Yet even then the final de-| cision could not be made. Test shots | had to be filmed, to discover how this | particular locale, chosen for its resem- | blance to a New England countryside, would look on the screen? Late one Saturday afternoon a big car| left the gates of Movietone City, in Hollywood, headed for Santa Cruz. In it were Santell, the director; cameramen | Glenn MacWilliams and Joe McDon- | ald, and Martin Santell, Alfred's brother who acted as first assistant director on the picture. | All the next day was spent filming test shots and likely locations. Martin | found plenty to do in a preliminary iurvey of available cows, horses, chick-| sns--all the farm animals to be used. | He contracted for the use of a hay field, | ought and found an ancient buggy such | is a rural mail-man used in Massachu- | etts during Rebecca's girlhood. | The director's decision was speedily | nade. All exterior scenes of "Rebecca f Sunnybrook Farm" would be filmed | ear Santa Cruz. Then began the hasty dispatch of all issembled properties, to be used in such icenes, to the northern city. A crew ol ikilled studio workmen, was sent ahead 0 prepare the way for the arrival of the company. For ten days they lab- yred, building tracks for the camera to! ravel on, and altering buildings, sheds| ad fences, | | | Copyright, 1932 Fos Film Corporation | to go on location are eager to leave Abe Steinberg, chief pro man, and Joe Delfino, his wy had fa more than the usual quota of problems that confront them when a feature pic- is getting under way, wi required to find a Pier ed of pi era 1910; to unearth an antiquated three legged milking stool.

Various other farm utensils seen in the picture were picked up, after a search that covered the great. er part of the state of California.

Dusing one sequence of the film they decorated the house for an old-fashioned Christmas, with strands of roped pop- corn, tinsel stars and gaily wrapped presents, For this sequence of the picture, which depicts a New England winter and in. cludes a blizzard, a family sleigh such as was used by the richest Down East families had to be located, With the preliminaries all camplete, the day of actual shooting nears. On that date, studio records will note that the Santell company is officially work- ing. For approximately six weeks it will be so scheduled, although months have been spent beforehand and more weeks of cutting, editing and music recording will follow, before the public is to get its first view of "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm." Everything is in readiness. All those of the company who have been chosen on the special train that is to carry them. And just as jubilant, though noi so much in the foreground, are those technicians, who have not left for the spot in advance. Twelve hours earlier, trucks, and pas senger cars, had left for location wis the highway. Among these were th sound trucks in charge of Kennett Strickfadden. Under him were H.

The huge electrical equipment trucks carrying the "iron" and the lights were capably manned by "Cy" Adams able "grip," and his assistants Tom Oulette and Carl Cabibi; the enormous generator for lighting manned by Hert Smith, and the sound generator con trolled by Sherry Smith. As the "location special" left the Glendale station, Alfred Santell prepared {lt spend the next six hours going over | last minute plans, gathering up every loose end of the previous fevered days of complex planning, safe in the knowl. edge that his fortieth feature picture would be launched on the morrowa (To be continued' turn to their duties when Sunday school re-opens.

Britain's trade favors in the Can- adian market are to be assured by means of generous extemsions of Canada's free list and increase in the differential already accord- ed to the United Kingdom in competition with foreign goods. "'('ordially RecCeived" Canada's specific list of propo- sals. was laid before the United Kingdom delegates yesterday morning--prompt answer to Lon- don, England, newspaper com- ments upon the Dominion's al- leged unreadiness--and the au- thoritative information is that the Dominion proposition was "cordially received" by the Brit- ishers.

Lumber Agreement Ottawa, Aug. 5.--Camnadian and signed after a sitting which last- ed until a late hour, is in two parts, it wag definitely learned last night. The Dominion and British im- porters known as the trade agree on: 1. An embargo by the United Kingdom against sawn imports from Soviet Russia. 2. An increase in duty against all foreign countries on sawn lumber from 1 to 25 per cent. with Empire lumber continuing on the free list. m © The second part of the report is signed by the group .of British iporters said to control the im- portation of lumber into the United Kingdom. Members of {his group agree on the proposed increase in préference from 10 to 25 per cent., but on the question of control of imports from the So- viet Union they suggest a control of the amount of Russian imports by the British lumber importers themselves. The object of the discussions which have taken place is to give Canada one-third of the annual $140,000,000 potential sawn lum- ber market in the United King- dom, If achieved, this would mean that the Dominion would ship in sawn lumber 1,300,000, 000 feet board measure approxi- mately--these are official figures Zmsach year to the Mother Coun- ry.
