No new concerns can start up. And even the transfer of ownership of any busines at all will he subje* I to government permit The order comes from Canada's wartime price* and trade board. It haa a twofold aim to divert more men. money and materials into war in dustries, and to prevent new or larger competitors from draining the dwindling supplies of small Canadian stores and businesses. This sweeping control restriction hits Canada's manufacturer/ wholesalers and retailers alike It applies to the laundiymau. the dry cleaner, the plumber and the res taurant owner It’s big. broad, and

So that wns it. Chloe was thinking. That was the thing she had sensed about Hester from the start. “Have they children?” “The Dillons?” Enid shook her head. “1 can't imagine Hester with a child.” “Sho has definite Ideas about rearing them,” Chloe said. “You mean, perhaps, about rearing Rann, Jr. Sometimes I think she’s jealous because Kann has him. I like the child. He and I are gnat friends." They talked of other things, and at the last Enid said, “You seem sensible. Miss Cameron. I'd like to ask you something, if I may. I'd like to know your opinion in a matter that puzzles me. Suppose a girl —Suppose she was very much in love, and with a boy who loved her in return. Do you think her parents —her mother, that is—should ask her to be governed by worn-out ideas, by what was right in another day?" “It’s hard to judge," tafd Chloe somewhat guardedly. “I mean, not knowing—” “But you do know.” Enid was too direct a person to try to be myst< rious. "You know us both. M I r is driving me mad. 1 made up my mind to talk to you. You can help us, if you will.” “Os course you are both very young,” said Chloe, striving to sound judicial. "1 think I know the young man in question.” “You mean Cliff Schuyler," Enid answered. “That was over long ago. I’m tired of crew hair-cuts and rahrah and jingle bells. This is some one you know quite well. In fact, you're engaged to him. Miss Cameron. and that's the trouble.” Chloe said after a moment, “Do you mean Hugh?” "Biron," replied Enid. “But I loved him before 1 knew he was Biron Torche . . . Miss Cameron, please . . ." for Chloe had left off eating and was abruptly pensive. “I knew this would be hard for you,” said Enid. “Biron would never have told you himself, and he doesn’t know I’m doing iL He’s told me how you nursed him when he was ill. and about the interest you’ve taken in his work. He’s grateful to you. He has an idea he ought to devote his whole life to you out of gratitude.... He loves you like a— Os course, you aren’t old enough to be his mother, but it’s like that. And he might have been happy with you. if we hadn't met each other, and if I hadn’t made him love me in the real way. For I did make him. though it wasn’t hard. And he does love me. And we’re both miserable, ft isn’t right." Here she and Rann were striving to provide Hugh with counter intereats and he had found one for himself. He had found all things for himself, even a job If he married Enid, the job wasn't far away. Chloe said. "It would be wonderful for you to marry—Biron." it would, all things considered. Real love, and the rest... If i had only guessed, thought Chloe. "And you'll release him?” F id’s question was hanging tn the air. "Why not. since he loves you?” "I mean—" Enid had planned thio interview for days and was finding it so simple that she felt confused. “I mean— you’ll go to him and voluntarily break things off - J

tight. i A high official explains the main I effect of the order is this way. He 1 says if it weren’t in existence,! stores which had lost certain lines of commodities would begin to slock ones. This would cause a wfile spread diversion, ami cut i it supplies to other retailer* who were already using the same commodity. That’s the stort of thing, says the oflh iul. which the order is designed io prevent. ■ -o Prohibition Issue Back In Limelight Flare-Up By Drys Is Sparked By War New York, Nov. 2 il'l’i I’ro-1 hibitlon is back in the political limelight for the first time since repeal. The dry* have su< < ceded in making it an Important sidelight in tomorrow's national election. And if they show any sort of strength, they undoubtedly will force the issue In- * to the l!*ll presidential elections. I The dry flare-up was sparked by the tnoblliziti n of a great citizen army in iraining centers over the nation. And now the prohibit ionisle are the largest third ,»arty in to morrow's elections. There are dry candidates in 2*.' of tile districts electing niembeito the house, and Seven ptohibi tionists are running for senate. In eight state* drys are running I f< r governor. These arc 1 Arizona. California, lowa. Kansas. Mas~>achu j setts. Michigan. Oklahoma and Pennsylvania. None- of these c -indidates seems I likely to l>e elected. But there’s 11 i big interest in the -ize vo'-j they will pdl. Tlie- new impetus toward prohibition was started by the same man who started it last time, the late Senator .Morris Sheppard of T< x ts It intr dined the bill to ban the i sale of liquor in army camps and . to banish liars from the areas *

Otherwise ~. he’ll never do it himself. Ho really—never would!” "I’ll break it myself.” said Chloe. “And you won't betray me?” “No. That would spoil everything.” After the luncheon. Enid unfastened the white orchid from her furs and pinned it on Chloe. A pretty gesture, a “thank y0u."... They went out into the street, and Enid asked, “May I drop yon somewhere?" “I was wondering,” said Chloe, "if Hugh ...’’ “Yes, he’s at home." with a certain eagerness. “He’s writing. I'll drop you at the corner of Lexington,” as they got into the blue coupe. “I’d better not take you to the door." • • * • Chloe went up the steps of the house on Thirty-eighth Street, treading on air. The maid remembered her, and she flew up the stair arriving a bit breathlessly at Hugh's door. She waited a moment. She mustn't appear too rejoic< <1 over her errand. She must save his pride. He had tried to save h< rs. She knocked, having got her breath again. “Who is it?" Hugh’s voice, annoyed, surprised. “It's Chloe, Hugh " After a moment the door opened. “Come in, Chloe.” He had put on his eoat — such formality I—had run a comb through his hair. “Things are upset,” he said. “If you had telephoned—” So he had succumbed to a telephone. It was on his desk, amid heaps of disordered manuscript. The whole place was upset She sat down on the chair he cleared for her. "Hugh,” she said after a moment. “Why didn’t you tell me—about you and Enid?” He looked at her, and was silent. “You don't think I'd want to marry you when you love some ore else, do you?” And as he did not answer, “You hated to hurt me, was that it?” “Something like that." He had risen, and stood, hands in pockets, at the window, looking out “I want you to know,” said Chloe, "that you are as free as if you had never seen me." She did not miss the light on his face. But when he turned to her he said. "What about you?” “It's funny," she replied. “I mean —we're funny. I love some one else, too." He stared. “You love—some one else?" “Rann Sturgis." she said “Why didn't you tell me? Why on earth—Oh. I know. BeeauM I had been ill. You didn’t think I eould take it . . . Sturgis," he repeated. “I knew he was interested in away, but—" “But not serious," supplied Chloe. “I didn't think you cared for him.” he answered. “I wonder if you do. I wonder if you’re telling me this—just to make it easy for ' me.” “No, I’m really in love. We’re going to be married." He said presently. “Sturgis is a fir.e chap. You’ll be happy ” “You, too, Hugh. She's lovely." “Lovely, yes. ... She's everything.” (To be continued) &SHUM » ><•'" S. IWMVa blK.ot. *4 w BUS r<»-.>w loom. IM
