One, announced as being made In behalf of the burgomaster of Amsterdam, said that everything had been prepared for the "smooth” entry of German troops. "The population will keep quiet,” said the announcer. It was added that the burgomaster had forbidden townspeople to take food from the city. A German voice said to have Veen that of Lieut. Gen. R.

it would be Peter, but it was Dorothy. "We’re leaving the first of the week for Bermuda, Gaby. Tony and I. .Mother's giving a luncheon and shower for you and me at the club tomorrow afternoon. I've been trying to get you ail day!” Gabrielleexplainedexcitedly what she was doing, although ahe experienced a small feeling of envy over Dorothy’s trip. Dorothy giggled: "I don’t know where we’re going to live, but the fireworks are over anyway, thank goodness! My hat. Gaby, I don’t know where we got the nerve to do what we did!"

I ’ “I'm no happy. Dot!” |i ' "Happy! I'm delirioue—l’m an , • Idiot!” announced Dorothy in her i • always flat sounding voice "Well, I ’ about the luncheon. Your mother ' ia expected, of course. I hope we ret lota <>f swell things, Gaby!" ! While Gabrielle waa in her room . getting a few of the clot hex out of • the dothea preaa. ahe heard the i phone nnit again, and her mother i answer it. She wouldn't have paid • any attention except that Helen • dropped her voice very low. The • conversation lasted only a minute, and then Helen called up aaym< she t waa ready to go. I "Who waa on the phone. Moth er?” ahe inquired, coming down the j stain with two hat boxes and hang . era loaded with dresses. "Your father, dear, but what he . aaid is a secret,' answered Helen "I’D take you to the apartment, then I simply must hurry and get him " • When they reached the apnrtr ment they were met by Violet, and p her eyes were whining brightly in ‘ Iter blaek, mirror like face. • "Go look in dat bit of a kitchen, c Mias Gabrielle, honey.” she cried. '• Hurrying into the kitchenette. r Gabrielle found a large porcelain - J rtfrireritor nf riprn-ive make Blanding in the place of th*’ <*W. j >• golden oak ice box. She turned, s back to her mother, after reading I the attached card: L "Mother- «h. Ido thank you and t Daddy se much’ This will help r lumps. I hated that old ice box—it > dribbled on the floor all the time!" » Her mother and Violet left, and I aha sat down on the divan amidst I the pillows and viewed her sur- ■ roundings with satisfaction Why in 1 the world, she wondered to herself, • did people make such a 'o-do over 1 being poor’ 1 Taking up a magstinc. she turned • on a reflector lamp near the divan I and began reading.

"Today, May 14. I received the Dutch General' K'-hurman. who declared' " 'I have to make the statement to your excellency that the Dutch defense fortes, with the exception of those in Zeeland, have laid down ' their arms before the advant Ing German troops.' "I accepted that declaration. 1 Thereupon the Dutch high commond requested Berlin by the air attache, Lieut. Gen. Wenninger, to send plenipotentiaries of the German troops to headquarters at The Hague for discussions regarding steps to be taken to maintain ord-1 er and calm." It was announced that Holland's I air defense corps had been demobilised and that volunteers should go home. Tin- blackout of cities was cancelled. The Amsterdam radio had an- 1 nounced at X o’clock last night that I Gen Winkelman. Dutch commander in chief, had ordered all troops to stop fighting. Afterward the Amsterdam radio read a dispatch In the German language asking the Gorman com mander in chief to atop the Gar-1 man airplane bombardment of the Holder, Holland's big naval base , at the tip of North Holland prov-

work overtime l«csuse ot being off the day before. But at II o'clock he would Im- able to come to her. Odd came up to the divan and whined, gazing up at her queationingly. His eyes looked more sorrowful than usual. “Come on up. Odd,” urged Gabrielle. “So, you don’t like this place, is that it? Well, it’s your home for the time being, old boy!” She rubbed Odd’s glossy brindlc back, scratched around his upstanding ears, and finally he curled up beside her, giving a deep sigh of | resignation. Gabrielle l» gan reading again. Much later, when Gabrielle could

scarcely keep her eyes open, Peter came, lie opened the unlocked door quietly, as though fearing to wake her, and when he saw ahe was still up he came into the room, grinning . happily. "I’ve a letter from my cousin in New York, Gaby!" he exclaimed. Then -he stopped A queer expression came over his face ax he looked around the newly fumishmi apartment. Gabrielle thought, with a somehow guilty feeling, that he looked bewildered and hurt. "Don’t you like it, Peter?” she asked, trying to smile. He stood gazing at the rug, his face a study. Suddenly he 1 aired his eyes to hers and there waa cold fury in them. "I suppose your mother did this?” His tone was low and he seemed to be breathing with difficulty ‘Of course, Peter — she and Daddy!” Gabrielle had gotten up. "Surely you like it much better than the hornd old stuff the* was here?” His eyes were glued to hers and he sat down in a thair, still gazing at her. The chair was the only remaining piece of furniture, she thought half angrily, which had be. longed in the apartment. His mouth was a flrm line, his bla-k brows drawn 'ogrther, his eyes question--1 ng. "Oh. for heaven's sake, Peter!” she cried irritatedly. "Don't h«- so silly! Surely you don't mind the folks helping us a little." "But you know I do mind,” Peter said. His happy expression was definitely gone and in its place was a discouraged look. "I explained to you how much you could expect of me before I married you." "Well—it’s you that's complaining—not I." <To be continued) Csvinaai to lauis Ms-u isms, CisvmuM to las rwwMs sssSmw. las

Ince. | This was followed by the readlug of a message from the German minister at The Hague to the commander in chief of German forces iu Holland: "Although at 9 p. tn. all Dut< h I troops laid down their arms except in Zeeland. German planes are bombarding the Holder." Shortly before midnight an an- ' nouncer said to be Gen. Windeli man took the microphone and told the Dutch people: "I esteem It a favor to give you personally an explanation of the very grave decision I had to take today. We bad to lay down our ' arms because there was no other way out. Under other clrcumatani ces we should have fought to the end. "If we had fought on. not only our army but also civilians, (Including) women and children, would have been destroyed because In such a populated country It is difficult to avoid killing civilians J when bombing Is aimed at military objectives." The Netherlands legation here announced today that the surrend er order did uot affect the Dutch 1 fleet. As goon as the capitulation order had been received here, the Netherlands minister. Mlchlels Van Verduynen. went to Buckingham palace and notified Queen Wilhelmina. Reports rm-elv d here said that , German parachutists and "floating Trojan horses" had captured the , vital Moerdljk bridges in the tinal i phase of lighting, and caused the ; surrender order. It was asserted , that parachutists, wearing Dutch I army uniforms, had approached Hie • bridges, chatted with the guards , and then suddenly produced weap- ' ops and ordered the guards to stir < render Other parachutists at the l same time, according to reports, flung hand grenades Into guard I houses The explosions.
