There is no need for a special oocaion to justify a bouquet of flowers in the living room. Green-1 bouse flowers are so inexpensive ’ nowadays and with proper care will last so long, their decorative touch need never be missing in the well-managed home. Especially in the spring and early cummer, when flowers are so welcome after the dreariness of winter, a well arranged bouquet, of colors that harmoniie I ■with the room decorations, will

lift the spirit a.nd please the eye of family and visitors. The ar- : rangement illustrated is an example of what can be done with a few spring flowers. The large blossoms numbered 5 in the diagram are tulips, with their petals turned back, to display the lovely coloring of the inner petals, which tulips seldom display in the garden. When treated in this manner they seem different, and magnificent, flowers. Tulips do not open so wide in the
garden until they are ajrout to fade, but to turn the petals ba it for a bouquet doos not affect their keeping quality. As a rule flower containers should be of solid and inconspicuous coloring, preferably of a grayed or neutral tone. The shape should be pleasing, :und of a size which balances well the size of the bouquet. White vases are most popular now and they look well with flowers of any colors. The flowers used in the arrangement pictured were: 3 pink snap-dragons; 6 jonquils or daffodils; 1 purple Dutch iris; 3 white candytuft; 3 red and white Darwin tulips. If you purchase more flowers, do not use more in this arrangement, but use them in other bouquets. An excellent idea I is to make two identical bouquets which can be displayed as a balanced pair, on either side of the mantel | Test Your Knowledge | Can you answer seven of these | ten questions?

“Sweepstakes on Love" l_ Vx 1 by May Christie
CHAPTER XIV The news photographers had surrounded the young man with the unruly blond hair and mustard jacket. He was trying to dodge them, but finally he good naturedly agreed to be taken. Genevieve saw this, amazed. Diana was too disconcerted over Roger’s non-arrival to pay attention to that. Roger must indeed be indisposed when he had failed to meet her on her arrival, to welcome her to Hollywood. Perhaps he might be at the studio? Perhaps the press agent was mistaken in the message? He took them to the Diplomat for luncheon. Smartly dressed men and women filled the place, but movie people were noticeably absent. Diana ate little. She made an excuse to slip out for a minute and call up Hempstead 0027. After an interminable wait she got the number. A woman’s voice asked her whom she wanted? Then came another long wait. ‘‘Mr. Dexter's room does not answer.” Click! The communication was cut off. So he was not sick enough to remain at home? Or had she been calling some kind of a hospital? She knew that Roger lived on Sunset Boulevard. The press agent was going to take them to the studio directly after they had finished luncheon. Roger might have recovers d and gone there? If not, maybe, she could induce Bernie Gutman (the aforementioned publicity man) to drive them to Roger's address later? She glanced at Genevieve and thought how beautiful her mother looked, with color in her cheeks and that eager air of interest in eyes that had looked tired and sunken on the train. The luxurious surroundings of the restaurant were her metier. She expanded here. She talked gayly with Mr. Gutman, asking that he point out celebrities to her. He told her there were very few stars here in the middle of the day, for most of them were working. “But Tuesday and Friday nights they come here to dine and dance. I’ll be very happy to escort you and Miss Darlington,” he suggested. They passed the beautiful outdoor swimming pool, known as the Lido, on the way back to his car. In the bright sunshine of early December, people were lunching under gayly striped parasols, al fresco. “And freezing in New York!” commented Diana with a gay little laugh. She felt better now that they were on the move. Excitement ran along her nerves. They were on their way to the studio that not only offered her the chance of a career, but included Roge- on its staff. In the bright, busy streets, she was amazed at the presence of so many automobiles. Two out of every three families in the State of California owns a car. and though the roads are wonderful, cities and towns are congested with motor traffic. ‘ Everyone belonging to the studios has some sort of a car," said Mr. Gutman. He smiled at Diana’s bright face. “You’ll have to get one.” They were zooming along Wiltshire Boulevard which was a mass of cars at that hour of the day. They turned right into a beautiful, tree-flanked street of charming little homes in Spanish. English Manorial, and Cape Cod style with a dash of architecture from other countries. Each house had its tidy green lawn and innumerable flowers of bright color. “Genevieve, do see the huge red and yellow roses as big as young cauliflowers!” Diana exclaimed. Even the trees flowered here. “One hears of the heartbreaks of Hollywood, but disappointment must be so much easier to bear in the sunshine!”'

The court found for the plaintiff there is due from the fie-1 tendant the lumi of SB7 as principal and the further sum of $29 as attorney fees together with CMtel.

Bernie Gutman, a tired-looking i man in the early forties, smiled at her enthusiasm. Everything charmed Diana, t Everything was novel. The towering vista of mountains I they were gradually approaching i formed a drop scene to an incredibly bright stage, so that everything i had an air of unreality. 1 "Hollywoodßoulevard!”breathed t Diana, drawing a long breath. How 1 low the buildings were that flanked it! It did not occur to her that this i economy of height might owe any- 1 thing to the danger of earth- 1 quakes. ... f “Almost like Main Sfreet in any 1 country town!” sniffed Genevieve, s who, after the excitement of the luncheon in the smart rendezvous, 1 was beginning to be tired. She was 1 exasperated that Diana should dis- 1 play such a country-cousinish won- I der at what seemed to her to have i a good deal of fakery about it. t “Drive-In” restaurants where one < ate in one’s automobile, and which : were shaped like enormous sows, indeed! And those theatrical-look- i ing mountains with homes nestling < in curves and perched on preci- I pices! It was all too fantastic to a 1 blue-blooded Darlington, the hub of 1 whose universe was New York’s . Park Avenue. They turned right at Cahuenga Boulevard and shot up, up through Cahuenga Pass. • 1 It grew wilder here, and prettier, < thought Genevieve. Certainly, one had to admit that Hollywood had I an extraordinary picturesqueness. She craned her neck up at the mountains, at the Spanish honjes ' set in their green gardens on dizzy pinnacles. The red-tiled roofs flamed in the sun of early after- ' noon, and the white walls stood out sharply against the saffron hills. 1 “Such a shame to have signs offering rabbits for 20 cents apiece and broilers at 17 cents! It kills the effect of the scenery!” she criticized. “It’s adorable! So new! So different!” Diana declared stoutly. ' Everything about this new life she would like. Wasn’t everything she wanted in the world right here? Roger. Her mother. An interesting job at the studios. How wonderful to live with Roger in one of those adorable mountaintop homes, far from New York, from everything that made lite uncertain and difficult! They switched off the highway, turning to the right. Presently pale yellow buildings came in view, and the glimpse of a cupola or tower, and big green gates. The gateman let them through. He saluted the press agent. Up a long curving driveway bordered by shrubs and flowers, and before them an ornamental door. Beyond it, in the magic, unknown territory of the studio, Diana’s fate awaited her. The information man at the , front desk had a perfectly blank • expression on his face. The comi ings and goings of stars, near- ! stars, the great and the near-great, I were something to which he had . long been inured. His own position was paramount in importance, he considered. For I was he not the one who decided who , should go in and who be debarred? He nodded nonchalantly to the press agent. The ladies, the nod meant, could go through. He . pressed a button under the information desk. There was a buzzing sound. The door at the other end of ’ the small waiting-room or office automatically opened. , A couple of men tried to slide in r behind Diana, Genevieve and the f press agent. Imperiously, and suddenly come to life, the man behind the desk ordered them back. They j came reluctantly. , A few steps down the corridor and Diana’s party emerged on a well-kept path that wound under f shady trees across a trim lawn, t “Rather like the*garden of the 1 convent!” she thought. She had had a period of schooling in a convent
and Mary E. Oliver for the sum of ■ $3,159 was reported and approved. Sale Approved A verified motion to sell personal property consisting of six shares of capital stock in the Bank of Berne was filed in the estate of Nicholas Jenney. The property was ordered sold at private sale without notice. The report of the sale was filed, examined and approved. Divorce Granted The court awarded a divorce to ; the iplaintlff Mary E. May in the suit brought against Wilbur May. The persona' property waa divided according to the ownership. The court found that neither of the parents was the party to have the care and custody of the two children which was given to Alice Evans. The former court order for support money was ordered to continue until further u-tice. The final report was filed in the estate of Sylvester Hille. Notice was ordered returnable, June 13-
up the Hudson. This was like it There was a hush about the place. As if, behind the walls of the innumerable bungalows and low-storied wooden and stucco buildings, quite a number of people were working and studying. Which was quite true. The Burrows studio of the International Film Company was a hive of industry. But scarcely nun-like in its habits. Diana's first thought on entering it was Roger. Not realizing in the least its far-flung lots and departments, its acres and acres of grounds, its ramifications, she looked eagerly about on a chance of sighting Roger. "We'll go in and see Finch first. Finch is your producer. His bungalow is down this lane.” They followed the long, loping stride of the press sgent down interminable paths and alleys until at the end of a row they reached a white painted bungalow with a picket fence about it. Rural it might seem outside, but inside was a most modern suite of offices. A small, sharp-faced secretary with an Oriental look sat at a large desk. She was talking on the telephone. She had three telephones. As she was talking, the other two rang Icudly. The pres- agent made the ladies sit down on a leather sofa, and disappeared through one of three doors on the far side of the room. lie reappeared presently, waited till the secretary had spoken on her telephones and then said briefly: “Mr. Finch is out. Where can I locate him?” “He’s on set B.” “May I use your telephone a second? I’ll try to get Falconer.” “He's on set D. Or he was, fifteen minutes ago when I stopped by.” Back across the green lawns and down a long alley and between what looked like enormous wooden barns. Then through a big door into what appeared to be a three-ring circus. It literally was a circus “shot.” There were elephants, giraffes and a couple of camels. Tight-rope walkers, trapeze artists, and clowns, and bareback riders. • Mr. Falconer was directing, and much too busy to talk to anyone. They watched for a little while. Then the press agent suggested they caii on the studio general manager. They were kept waiting fifteen minutes in an outer office before a haughty secretary with pince-nez ushered them into the great presence. Big in importance in the movie world, Mr. Goldman was small in physique. The press agent explained to him about Diana. He shook hands with her absent-mindedly, said he hoped she would be happy among them, and rose in dismissal. Diana did not know whether to feel snubbed or amused by the curtness of the officials, but decided it was all part of Big Business. Who was she but a very small tadpole in a very large puddle? The press agent then took them to Mr. Goldman’s second assistant. He told her to report next morning at eight o’clock in the make-up department, and ask for Mr. Kayser. “Perhaps you would like to make a tour of some of the sets now?” suggested the press agent. Diana said quickly; “It would be interesting to visit the Art Department,” then blushed, and hated herself for blushing. ( They paid their visit, but the place was so vast that it waa uncertain whether they would see Roger Dexter. Mr. Gutman, however, had acumen. Refreshing his memory from the telephonic memoranda in his pocket, he made inquiry after the new scene-designer? To learn that he had not been in that day, nor did they expect him till tomorrow morning. (To Be Continued) IMS. King ZMlur-a S s r9 •• *-•
