A United Press survey revealed that the disabled veterans are getting a lot of help from their employers and they also are helping themselves. One southern soldier who helped himself was an engineering student in IPt I. He became a flight gunner. The hand he bad used to hold hi* drafting instrument* was shot off and one of his eardrums was perforated. “I could be bitter, but I'm not," he said. "I learned a lot In the war."

The work aggravated his disability. "It was a disappointment." he said, "but I finally got this Job. and I'm very happy.” A Salt Lake city roofing company gave a former marine corps private his big chance. The veteran had worked as a day laborer for the company before ke lost > a leg. Now he is studying to be an engineer for the company. "I might never have got the opportunity if I hadn't been wounded." he said. “But the best part is that I'll ■ get a big raise In pay."

CHAPTER SEVEN I DIDN'T dare glance at Margot Ingalls, suddenly left alone with me and a few unimportant women, for fear of what 1 would as* in her face. And when at last 1 did pick jp the courage to do so my worst rears were surpassed. She had drawn herself uo stiffly and was staring straight ahead, bar face .frozen into a mask. But a mask might explode any moment. And I was cudgeling my brain for means to prevent th* explosion when Deane approached, smiling, with outstretched hand. “How d you du. Mrs. Ingalls,” h* greeted her gayly. “You remember me from Hollywood, don't you?" And then I had tba shock of my I Uf*. Margot Ingall* drew herself up even straighter and said icily, “I hav* never seen you before and have no desir* to know you.” It was incredible. Deane gasped: "But—but—I did some work on one of your stories!’’ And then glanced around helplessly —to meet the eyes of Hunt Berwick, who apparently had just come from the dining room with Dick. It was Mke a mute appeal for help, and Hunt took it as such. He grinned fleetly at Deane and then reminded Mrs. Ingalls amiably, ”1 hops your memory to better in my case. We met on the Queen Mary on the return trip from k’rance. shortly before the war.” *Tomrtbiy. But 1 don’t remember you,** she told him a shade teas offensively, and then turned—to go to her room.

MamHBmdtoMISMWkMmaSWMMfIMHMMBMmBMHBBBMmmmMMMBmmMM "Won’t you please Introduce me, Mias Applebeel 1 promise I shall not claim old acquaintance.” I was wondering how Margot would take the barely concealed sarcasm of th* request. But she acknowledged the introduction calmly enough, and when just then the publisher with whom wo were going to dine approached, I grasped the opportunity and escaped to the other end of the room. Dick and Hunt followed me— Dick to say goodby, Hunt to stay beside me. “Your famous authoress must have been hungry to bit* your friend's head off that way," he commented after a while of companionable silence. “And talking of hunger, will you have dinner with me Friday, Jane?" I nodded assent almost mechanically, and then gasped: "Heavens, I can't! I have to go to Polly’s fashion show,” and explained the circumstance* regretfully. “Think he’d object to my coming along?” Hunt asked when I had finished. "On the contrary. Pm sure he’d be delighted," 1 OExured him, "Swell. Then, how about you and your charming house guest having dinner with me, first?” It sounded tempting. “All right. I’ll ask her," 1 agreed. But Hunt shook his head. “Oh, no. You ask your Polly. I’ll ask the lady," he corrected. And walked off to follow the words with the deed. Deane had joined me, to complain about Margot Ingalls, when Hunt ■ returned from his errand. “All arranged. The lady said •yes',” he reported with a grin. And ' then consoled Deane, after listening to hto grousing tor • little: “I wouldn’t take the great Ingalls so seriously, Kennard. Fm pretty sure she didn’t mean to insult you. It was just—the beautiful Miss Tarrant had Btoien her thunder and—well—she vented her resentment on the first person who gave her tbe chance. Which happened to be you.” The Idea seemed to cheer Dean* At any rate, it made him drop the subject and talk of other things. Mainly himself—and Neal. His deeislon to dramatise his latest book for Neal. Neal’s encouragement and her kindness—that included the gift of special eigarets. 1 saw him offer one to Hunt as I moved away to avoid a renewed dispute about the mentioned dramatization, and got a great kick out of the expression with which Hunt regarded the gaudy thing—aa though he were afraid it might go “pop” in his face. 1 thought, “Good for Hunt!" as I walked back to Margot, and—- " What a reception!" When we got home from our evening on the town with Margot Ingalls' pubitoher, 1 was utterly played out. And a* she also showed signs of wearinssa. after being sparkling and witty all through dinner, a show, and two night dubs, 1 triad to cut short our good nights after dutifully escorting her to her room, had ao idea as lletting me go m a hurry.
