Gyneth and Garnet Lowe, 17-year-old tromboning twins of lola. Kas., found their twin romances too much for Cupid. They had been dating Howarth and Howard Low. 22-year-old twin grocers in their home town. "They 're just as identical as we are." the Lowe twina explain, "and it finally got to the point where none of us could tell who was who on dates. We like to be sure we’re dating the fellow we think were dating, you see!"

Not all justices of the supreme court are equally willing to have their pictures taken as these photographs testify. When a photographer attempted to snap Justice Van Devanter as he was leaving his Washington apartment, left, the elderly jurist hid behind his hat and then rushed over to the cameraman, grabbed him by the arm, demanded to know why he hadn’t asked permission to photograph him, and ordered him from the building. Just prior to the incident Justice Cardozo, who lives in the same apartment building, had posed for hi* photo, right.

——i— SYNOPSIS Gilbert Windon had been In love with lovely Denise Rendale from the moment he met her but she had 1 eyes for no one except Keith Sheldie, handsome young playboy. However, Keith and Denise break ■ up when the irresponsible Keith does not offer to marry Denise upon learning of her father’s financial ruin. Keith frankly explained that he was solely dependent upon his wealthy father, and to marry meant being disinherited. Despite | the fact that she is bored and unhappy, Denise’s sister, Felicia, suggests that Denise marry “money” immediately as she herself had done. The latter loved the late Duane Fenton but married the unexciting, though reliable Eustace Gardiner Dayne when Duane failed j her. Denise accepts Gilbert on condition that the marriage be a formal I one and, if at the end of a year she ; is not happy, he will free her. Keith does not believe she will go through with it. He resented his father’s stern dominance which -prevented him from doing as he pleased. Keith’s mother had run away with her music teacher when Keith was only a year old and had i died shortly after. Since then, his I father took his hurt out on the boy, bending him to his will. At first Keith endured his father’s treatment for loyalty's sake but later because of the money he would inherit. Denise and Gilbert are to be married the week before Thanks- ] giving. The days passed quickly, ‘ Denise thought, but yet were empty. ' Five days before her wedding-day she receives a note from Keith ask- , ing her to meet him. CHAPTER X At half-past three she dressed. Too carefully, she told herself, too . elaborately. But if this was the last time she was to see him, she . wanted him to remember her as , pretty! . She repeated to herself, “The last time!’’and suddenly she did not be- , lieve it at all, suddenly the whole month was unreal, and the only clear reality was that she would see Keith, and all their misunderstand- j ings would vanish forthwith. j She inspected herself very carefully, and knew she had never looked better in her life! In a street-length silver metal dress, a , velvet hat and (with complete un- j scrupulousness) the silver fox cape that was Gilbert’s most recent gift. | The strangest mood was upon her, , a feeling that Gilbert and everyone else were against her, but she would , get her own way in spite of them all! She ran downstairs and took < a cab with a feeling that she had no time to waste. ] But, strive as she might, she could I not make that defiant mood last. It I departed before she had completed the long journey across town, and with its departure she felt some- 1 how guilty, as if she were doing something furtive and a little dis- 1 graceful. . . . When she saw Keith’s face, < though, hesitancy left her. Why, < she had to see him, to say good-by 1 at least. “How much time have you, De- i nise?” “About an hour ’ “Do you want tea, or would you father drive around the park. I I have my car here.” “I’d much rather drive.” She ' walked around the corner beside 1 him. There was his black roadster in which he and she had been on so many short drives that seemed in retrospect invariably gay.

His shoulder touched hers, accidentally, crossing Central Park South. She moved away from that contact, and he said stiffly: “Sorry." They made one circuit of the park in complete silence then. She stole a glance at his profile. Why, he looked older! That was probably not remarkable; she felt so much older herself in those five weeks. They turned northward again. When a traffic-light stopped them, he turned and smiled at her. How charming his smile was! She had forgotten just a little. “Rather inane, this, Denise, isn’t it? The trouble is, I know quite well what I want to say, only not how to begin it.” "No hurry. It’s nice, driving around with you.” “I think so myself. Let’s do it often.” "Probably my husband will object.” “Shouldn’t wonder.” But his voice was cheerful. She could tell he was so pleased to see her- -as she to see him—that nothing else mattered for a little while. “Move your shoulder back against mine, Denise.” “It's not respectable under the circumstances.” “You don’t know the circumstances yet.” Her heart said: “For this hour it doesn’t matter. I’ll behave ever after. It isn’t much, to take one hour off from good behavior.” And she put her head against his shoulder. “Tell me the circumstances, Keith.” “In a minute.” “I can hear your heart beat, even though my head’s on the other side.” “Darling, do you know I love you terribly?” “Don’t think you ever mentioned it, Keith.” But her own heart was beating so fast, she was sure he must hear. “So you’re marrying money, Wednesday next, Denise?” he said abruptly. She sighed. “I can't keep this up, my dear—being gay, I mean. Yes, I am marrying money, Wednesday next.” She lifted her head. “Weren’t you comfortable?" "Too comfortable.” It was grown quite dark. She was glad that he could not see her face clearly. “I was pretending, Keith, that there were no minutes beyond these minutes.” “Go on pretending, dearest. Why not?” “Because and because and because." “All right. We’ll be serious, then. First, forgive me for all the stupid things I said, that last time I telephoned you.” “I forgave you weeks ago.” "Then let’s drive over the State line and be married tonight.” She said, “Oh, oh!” sharply, as if he had hurt her. He hurried his words, to stop the echo of that sharp sound. “We’ll come back, and face Father. Maybe he'll come through with the traditional parental blessing. He’s been strangely mild, lately. Ten to one, he won’t, and we’ll be driven out into the night as in the melodramas. But I don t really care any more, do you?” She could not answer; and seeing that she could not, he put his right hand over her hand, and drove on slowly, steering with his left, not talking any more. Suddenly she said: "I love you; I'll always love yon.” As en that

- other day with the October leaves c bright about them. t "Well then, Denise—” She was silent again, and he guessed at her thoughts. “If you . love me, isn't that the most impor- > tant thing? I decided that loving , you was the most important, for r ' And she would never guess the hardness of the struggle toward that decision, all the lonely weeks. “Keith, my dear, I want to say ' something that sounds terrible, only ' I sha’n’t mean it the way it sounds." 1 “Say ahead.” But she hesitated, thinking: “If : only I could stop thinking, could ' drift, could do what he wants, and ■ not consider what happens after!” Then she said: “I love you—and • I don’t trust you at all.” "That’s horrible enough.” His , voice was unsteady. “All I mean is this, Keith; that I don’t trust you not to be sorry after, if we were poor, and you couldn’t play around with painting, and life was very dull.” He thought: ‘"Play around with painting!’ Yet she doesn’t mean to be cruel at all. That's just what she : believes I feel about it, and she’s fairly nearly right.” “That’s not all, Keith.” Something in the sound of tho“» four words made him turn to look at her. She was weeping. “Denise, you mustn’t cry. There’s nothing to cry about, surely." "Mother and Father would be so wounded, so hurt.” “Are you weeping for them? Surely they would want you to be happy?” “I wonder. Or whether they would not prefer me to be honest, to keep my promises.” To that, he found no answer. And she said, in a small, hoarse voice: “Take me home, my dear. I want to be yours; you want me. But things aren’t simple like that. I'm crying because I know that here and now is going past something I sha’n’t ever have again, not ever. Please, please, Keith, take me home.” Instead, he turned the car off the main drive, stopped it, took her in his arms. For a moment while his heart stood still, she answered his kisses. Then she turned her face away from them, and he knew that there was no use. But stubbornly, outside her father’s house, he said: “Nothing is forever nowadays. I’ll wait for you.” She said only, “Good-by, my dear,” and went on up the stairs, steadily.... But on the morning of her wedding day those words of his repeated themselves in her mind, over and over, while her mother moved about smiling gently, while the hairdresser arranged her veil, while Felicia smoked cigarette after cigarette in the strangest silence. “Nothing is forever nowadays. Nothing is forever nowadays.” The ceremony was to be at noon. She and Gilbert were sailing at five o’clock. Eleven o’clock came and went past. Her mother left her to go and receive the few guests. Her father came in to see her in her wed-ding-dress, kissed her and went away. She was left alone with Felicia, . who was to be her only attendant, at , last. Still, Felicia had nothing to say, except: “Put on just a oit of • rouge. Denise. Brides are always too white. It’s all the satin and lace, t of course, but it makes them look panicky.” She put on rouge, delicately. (To be continued) Copyrtghi by Lr«ula Pin-ott D!«trtbut»d by King Feature* Syndicate, Ina.
