SOVIET WOMEN GET SAME WAGES AS THE ‘MEN D0 Four out of every ten workers in the Soviet Union are women.

women are playing in Soviet in- dustry —even h such usually masculine fields as railway and road construction. It is not unusual to see brawny young women in

Moscow ni-vvying, or driving a lorry. . The Soviet Government pays

women exactly the same wages as men, everything being done to make them economically independ- ent. ,

The rise in women labor- is shown by these figures: In 1926 the ratio of women laibor in the oil industry was 3 per cent; in power stations, 3-6 per cent; in the iron and steel industry; 7.7 per cent. In 193i ' the corresponding figures were; Oil. 11.4 percent power stations, 31 per cent; ion and steel, 22.3 per cent.

More than half a million women are engaged in the building in- dustry, while'64,000 work as engin- eers and technicians.

ART OI‘ VENEER ADAPT! RARE WOODS T0 USE

The axicient art of veneering, as applied to modern furniture, is an interesting highlight of the National furniture exhibition, open to the public, recently in Toronto. Notable is the increased use of Canadian birch in cabinet-mak- ing and Canadian maple in bed- room and dining-room suites and the extensive application c! such other Empire-grown woods as Indian laurel; teak and rosewood, English cherry, and Australian wal- nut maple and oak.

Briefly, the art of veneering con- sists of overlaying a thin sheet of wood on a core of another wood more suitable for construction pur- poses. Many of the rarer woods can- not be obtained in the solid and, if they could, such Empire-grown woods as mentioned above, with r the exception of the Canadian, wouldbesccoetlyaswalmost prohibit their use for furniture.

Another for the use of veneers is that these fine woods have a very complex fibrous struc- ture which is greatly [affected by

msraurnnr a:

When Larry Cutter stopped at Jacqueline’: office door the next af , , it needed but one glance from those dark blue eyes to con- firm his first feared

reported. No telling what kind of story she had concocted. And the worst of it was, he could not utter a word in his own defense. N do but take it. He swallowed an oath and walked into the little room with as genuine a smile as he could muster.

"W Miss Anthony, I'm check- ing out." He felt that the expression was singularly apprcpriatc- "Bag and baggage."

Jacqueline looked at him and said nothing.

"I expect to see your dad to- night." He moved nearer the desk and lowe erdhis voice. "Any word you want to send?"

“N03.

“Jack . . -" he exclaimed im- pulsively, then got himself in hand. "I guess there's nothing to say this time . . . except good-bye." '

"Good-bye, Mr.- Cutter."

Larry hesitated, then turned on his heel and left.

Jacqueline never knew how she managed to get through the bal- anec of the afternoon. There were few customers and her head ached so that she could not read. She had the feeling that some one had tack- ed a vacant smile on her face. There was but one thing she want- ed . . . a chance to go home. To throw herself down on the bed and let the tears come. It seemed to her that she carried teh accumula ed grief of a lifetime in her heart; she could not hold it back much longer.

Added to her trials, just about the time she planned to escape from the oflice. was a call from Lieuten- ant Frank Staples. The detective entered, helped himself to a seat and grinned amiably at his hostess. . "Want to hear a good joke, Miss Anthony?”

“I'd love it." Jacqueline placed her hand to her lips to assure her. self that the smile was still there.

“This one‘s on me- You know that fellow Cutter we were talking about one day?"

"Oh, yes."

"Well, early this afternoon I wan. dered into the bar here. I had an- other guy on my mind, another racket entirely. I was sizing up the mob along the mahogany when somebody taps me on the shoulder. It was young Cutter."

“Was it?"

"No less. He gives me a pleasant smile. ‘Looking for me, were you?’ he asks. I tried to act dumber than usual and tells him he's got the wrong number. I don't know him. ‘$111’! V011.’ he laughs. ‘You been tagging after me pretty steady. Lieutenant. So I thought maybe I could save you some trouble. I'm pulling out today for good. You might pass the word along any- where it‘il do you some good.’ Cool, wasn't he?"

“veryf.

"And all the time, 1 thought I was doin' a nice Job of playin’ shadow. I don't know whether somebody tipped him oil’ or not. Oh whe- ther he's naturally smart."

Jacqueline nodded vacantly. Her heart skipped a beat as Staples pa . His next question might be for her-

"That sure was a good one on me," the detective contineud. “I knew you'd get. a smile out of it. too. Well, I guess he's gone, all right. 80's my weekly retainer. They told me at the garage he'd been in there asking some questions about the roads-to the Windy City. But I'm not interested."

Jacqueline found herself breath- ing again.

After her coveted spell of weep- ing, she forced herself to take stock of the situation. For the once there was no ‘uus decision to make. Larry was gone. Vince was gone. she was back where she had started.

Porhapsjate had played enough with her.

The days dragged along wearily, each one bringing the same rou- tine. There was but one bright spot . . . business seemed to ‘be picking up. If the spurt lasted, there was a hope for Jacqueline that it wolud not be too long before she could square her final account with Lany. Not quite the final one, either.

She dreaded that. Not because of the idea of that last, and legal, separation, but the certainty that it could not be accomplished without the usual legal formalities and pub- licity. The neighbor state might let people into wedlock without any fanfare of trumpets. but it was too much to hope that the dissolving process would be like that. What would it be? charges of desertlon, incompatability . . . Time enough to worry over that. The unknown blonde, perhaps

Vince wrote occasionally from the farm. His letters were like himself, vague and erratic.

Jacqueline was given to under- stand that hc was feeling very well now and was hard at work. His en- thusiasm in the new invention had not lagged, apparently. He said nothing about working for IAHTJIVO that the latter had insisted he learn how to drive the roadster. Vince

smiling at her from the doorway. He looked so much better than when she last saw him. His grimly hair and small moustache were neatly trimmed. He-wore a natty blue suit and, carried a gray hat, obviously new, in his hand. A healthy tan browned his cheeks. “Why, Vince! Come inl" his daughter laughed . . . for the first time in weeks, it seemed to her. "I scarcely knew you. 1 thought you We)?’ one of my millionaire custom-

Vince grinned almost sbeeplshly and helped himself to a chair. .

“I've been fixing up a little," he admitted. "About time."

“But where did you come from I'm so thrilled I hardly know what to say. You're going to stay for a while, aren't you?"

"I came down from the farm," Vince admitted.

"Oh." Jacquelinels smile faded. It brought everything back. .

“Yes, I bad to come down on business for Larry."

“How is . . . Larry?" She had to ask that. -

"I don't know. He's been stickfiig pretty close to the place, but he don't act the way he used to, He's got something on his mind . . a1- ways brooding. lie worries me, I be; he's lost about fifteen pounds. May- be youwe noticed it."

"I haven't seen him, Vince."

"No? I rather figured he'd been down here on some of his trips. Though he didn't say so, and 1 nev. er asked. Did you have a quarrel with him, Skipper?”

“Of course not."

“I didn't know. He's coming down here late tonight sometime. Irm 801118 to meet nim."

"But youremot going right back, are you?"

“Not sure." Vince looked uncom- fortable. He acted as if he had said rather more than he intended.

"Then you'll have dinner with me. We'll eatwiown in the cafeteria so we won't have to waste time ger- tins a meal."

"Why, I guess I can do that."

"Of course you can! Then we'll go home and have a good visit to. Betiier. You know you ve never seen my apartment." _ .

“That's right. Larry told me you had it fixed up pretty nice. All 118M." l-ie got up. “I'VE got some er- rands to do now . . . lli drop back later. What time do you close up?”

“Oh, about five-thirty. But take your time. I'll wait for you."

After he had gone, Jacqueline m. alized for the first time how she hm missed him. It seemed so gcoq to 56¢ 111111 118fl111- And he looked so Well- 11 0111i’ he wouldn't insist upon talking about Larry too much. 1L hurt . . . almost like seeing nim.
