“Thanks, no. Donny, you go and dance. Don’t let me spoil your good time.” “My good time is with you," he said quietly. She limped to the main ballroom with Donny. Everyone was gay, as people usually arc after an excellent supper and plenty of liquid refreshment. Diana felt she was tn a drcam. Had she dreamed Roger’s words of love? Had they existed only in her imagination? She tried to shake her queer mood off, telling herself that she knew Roger had been previously bespoken by Regina for the cotillion. Friends crowded round her as she sat with Donny on a swing couch under a maple tree at one side of the ballroom. She talked with them brightly, laughing off their condolence. “Hear that you slipped on a cake of soap and shot down the stairs, old girl? Iladst been imbibing?” “Sounds like a jolly old bathroom story, or a funny song I used to hear in jolly old Ixuidon when I was a kid,” quoth Clarence. He puckered his lips and sang, off-key. “‘She slipped on a cake of soap, and came down .. . came down ...' ” The orchestra stopped playing. The drummer beat a tattoo on his big drum. “All those not taking part in the cotillion return to tho Ova! restaurant,” called a master-of-cere-monies; “those taking part in the cotillion go -with your partners to the ballroom on the right, please.” Returning whence they had come, Diana and Donny found supper removed, and fresh cloths in red and white checks set out on the tables. The electric lights were turned off. Tall red candles gleamed everywhere among the dowers. Fresh glasses were eet out, and buckets of champagne in ice. and silver dishes of matrons glaces. “Spooky effect! What’s the Hallowe’tnish idea?” whispered Clar ence “Waiter, a glass of bubbly.” He helped himself to the sweet ’ -.neats, adding- “Look at the jolly old blighters in Hindu garb. Gad’ , one of 'cm’s going to give tongue. Hark at him.” An Indian fakir stood on the balcony. Clapping his hands smartly together for silence, he said, in a broken accent: “Ladies and gentlemen, I am velly moch surprised that none of you thanked Mr. Hyde”—he bowed ceremoniously to Benjamin—“for the magnificent presents you have received.” ' An amazed buzz went over the : crowd. A blank and puzzled expression on the faces in tho restaurant. “For instance, you, sir—and you, lady—” The Iljndu stepped down to a table immediately below him, and lifting a small evening bag, opened it and drew from it a tissue-wrapped package He handed it courteously , to the lady, turned to her partner, and deftly drew another little pack- . age from his ”est pocket. Simultaneously, nt other tables ' in the room, his four dark-skinned confreres wera performing similar ' feats. A package would be drawn , from a gentleman’s ear . . . from a lady’s hair . . . from a foid of her gown, famid much laughter and excitement. “Indian fakirs, by all that s > holy!” murmured Clarence, as long brown hands slid into tho back of his collar. “Yours, sir,” said a soft, insinuating voice. “And yours, lady.” From Ditjna s orchids on.hcr shoulder he drew out a package and handed it to her. Benjamin Hyde's “favors” made a great stir. Beautiful old enamel powderboxes for the ladies which, when opened, revealed a handsome diamond clip pin. and, when one lifted ' the clip-pin. a spring at the bottom of the box flew up, revealing a ' twenty dollar gold piece. ’ Leather boxes for the men con- ' taining gold - and - platinum cuff- . links, with a diamond in the center. Set in the satin lining of the lid was la twentv-dnllar gold piece. “What a bally original idea!” Clarence chortled. , “Yes—-and very vulgar!” was the comment of a neighbor. “Trying to hug their way! contributed a dowag.r, sotto voice, down her long nose. Peoplo compared their favors The men's were all alike, and so worn those of the women. Delighted exclamations were beard ot> every side, and a murmur of thanks to the host But there was an undercurrent of ’ sarcasm at many of the tables. “Did he buy them at a fire sale. “Hadn't the old boy more sense than to give us all the same thing? We’ll be spotted at once if we wear them.” This from several of the m “We can’t. We dbe ‘kenspeckled/ as they say in Scotland. We can t use them.” . . Clsi-encc had screwed ms monocle in his right eye and was busily turning his cuff-links hither and yon. “Certainly we can use ’em. compson can use ’em.” (^* n ’P so !’,,'X a ? well-known pawnbroker.) 11} bet Simpson would advance me at leas., twenty quid on this.”

I political activity. He was gradu ■.tied from Cumberland University ‘in 1899 with a law degree, and | was admitted to the bar the same [year. He became prosecuting attorney for Bowling Green county, i judge in Warren county, and president of the Times Journal Publishing Company at Bowling Green, Ky. He was at otic time moderator i for tlie Kentucky synod of the Cumberland Presbyterinn church During the World War. he took part In the St. Mihiel and Argonne j offensives, nud was cited for valor and promoted. He returned to Kentucky to become state commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, and vice commander of the Kentucky district of the American Legion.

Everyone laughed. But Clarence was not to be daunted. His monocle still in his eye, he murmured: "Eighteen carat gold, platinum plated. And Kimberley's best blinkers in the center, egad!” “Sure. In these hard times, Siinpson’U be doing a roaring business over these favors.’’ said a nearby youth, grinning widely. “I think you're all hateful!” Diana exclaimed. No one batted an eye, however, or seemed embarrassed. She thought: “How false they are! They’re probably disappointed that the gold pieces were not fat checks! Money is all they care about!” Roger was different from that. Os course Roger had loads of money himself, and didn’t have to think about it. but there was no pettiness, . no backbiting, about him. She was sick of the New York crowd. Married to Roger ( she would do her best to persuade him to make their home somewhere in the country—perhaps in California, which she heard was so beautiful. A home near Santa Barbara, where he had his oil-wells? Thera would be lots of work for Roger in connection with the oil. He himself had expressed a desire for work, for amounting to something in the world of workers, that Saturday night at the Hyde partyon Long Island. Their presents in their pockets, and suitably refreshed with champagne. most of the five hundred people in the restaurant were returning to the main ballroom for dancing. “Let’s.wander to the other room and take a squint at the cotillion, Diana,” Donny suggested. “Okay.” It would seem odd to keep rcfjuing. Ho helped her up. giving her his arm. There was a crowd about the door of the second ballroom. Being small, at first Diana could not see. Donny on an impulse swung her up on his shoulder. “Put me down!” she gasped, terribly embarrassed. Were Roger to raise his eyes from Regina's face in the elaborate dance, what on earth would he think if he saw her? That she had come here and wa« malting a show of herself, impelled by jealous curiosity! Roger did raise his eyes. He saw Diana. He looked amazed for a second, then he gave a wry smile and averted his glance. Diana, red to the cars, struggled off Donny’s shoulder, and, had he not caught her, she would have fallen. As it was, her weak ankle “gave” with a painful wrench. “Os all the fool thiiifts to do—” she began, limping off tn dudgeon. Dbnny caught up with her. He was full of apologies. She felt she hated Donny at that moment. He had no tavoir faire. She left him for another partner. They went to the bar and settleo themselves in a corner. Not long afterwards, Regina and Roger arrived. Regina steered Roger to the farther end and arranged things so he had his back to Diana. The latter heard Regina order champagne cocktails and a bottle of brandy. “For the love of Mike, you aren t going to mix brandy with your champagne?” she heard Roger protest. “Just a little lacer, Roger?” Regina insisted. , .. , “Nix for me. It’s pure dynamite! After tho dancing and the drinks we’ve already had, my head s spinning.” She took a cigarette from a receptacle and said: “I want a light.” There were no matches on the table. Roger rose hastily, took two steps to the bar, and quick as lightning Regina poured half his champagne into a fern tub, substituting brandv in its place. . When lie .returned with the matches, she removed the cigarette from her lips, tilted up her glass and suggested they make a little tonst .... j “To tho next rotdhon we dance together, Rdger?” “You were a swell partner, Regina,” he said uneasily, avoiding her eyes, and toying with the stem of his glass. “Let’s make that toast together, and drink every drop,” she suggested. “Okay.” Why argue with her? “Here’s to our n-xt cotillion, and good luck to you.” > He drank the powerful notion almost at a gulp. , “Whew! that's strong stuff! Strikes me it had more in it than imio'-uous chain psgne. >ny dear girl!” “Certain!v not,” she fibbed, “it’s Pol Roger that Dad imported from France six years age, that’s all.” A "heat went through his veins.

The tone of ids speech indical 'ed that despite increasing bitterness of < raft leaders, the federation president would seek to prevent expulsion of the CIO unions.

"Storms may come and winds may blow,’’ he said, “but the federation stands like u great oak tree, sinking its roots deeper and deeper into the economic and social life of our nation. So it will be when this storm has passed. The roots will be dug in just a little deeper." In a gesture to the rebels, he said that Lewis’ United Mine Workers, which he described as i "my own organization," loved and ! respected the federation “deep down in their hearts.” • o It took four months of argument for the constitutional convention to agree on the United States constitution.
