Aside from Taft, the leading Republicans favor the United States plan of bringing the European countries together In a pact opposed to the spread of Communist aggression. -o It appears that Republican leaders now want to get on the band wagon of popularity In recording their vote for the federal housing bill.

It has just created the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, devoted to investigation and costing *2,400.000. The remarkable fact is that this sum came not from the state appropriations, or gifts from phllanthropical and industrial founds tions, but was contributed entirely by individuals, in amounts ranging from *26,000 to 30 cents. The new foundation has no special plans, but is free tq take almost any path in medical investigation. o o Noise: A campaign to reduce unnecessary noise is being carried on In some of our large cities and in many industrial organizations. Doctors who have made a study of the effects of noise on the nervous system claim that it can work much harm Tenseness and weariness afflict the worker whose ears are continually batter*d by racket, and his efficiency Is reduced by as much as 12 per cent. Errors are more common under noisy conditions. Moving a working group from a location next to a boiler room Increased production from 80 to Un units, and errors dropped from 60 to 7 Quieting fans and other moving mechanisms resulted in marked improvement in the work of shipping clerks and of flee workers. Street noises and those due to construction activity as well as horns, whistles, radios, barking dogs and loud noises are objects of attack by noise abatment organizations in many cities.

CHARTER NINETEEN I THOUGHT wc had gotten out of Boston, thought Marvell wearily, and now thia creature reeking with the accent, the command, the snobbery, walks in on us. He followed Miss Searle back into the hall. Just above her head, between the spokca of the stair railing, were Kit's muddy-toed shoes. She could have listened from this passageway above quite concealed had she remembered to withdraw her feet. “Come down, child," called Miss Searle peremptorily. There was no answer, then Marvell addressed the shoes, “Kit. have wc anything to offer Miss Searles?" “No," said Kit flatly, and then added, “Milk." "I should like a glass.” said Miss Searle, in some perversity for she knew Kit did not want to be out of earshot for a moment. “You have come to a lonely place. Mr. Coomes. Practically no neighbora" “I count you as one." "Oh. 1 am solitary. There is Mr. Furse, or was.” “Fursc?” The name was faintly familiar. “That gray clapboard saltbox the other side of me." “Did he come alone, too?" “Mined. He told me his father bought the place for its silver mine—run out. of course, if there ever was one. 1 warned him against such folly but he is young and impatient. 1 dare say the war will be good for him. But he was a nice lad. 1 rode with him occasionally. You will like him, If he comes back fmm the war." “What I am most Interested In.” said Marvell, “is someone with a family. My daughter will need companionship." “You have come too far out of town for that" "1 c*»n go in." “Tne natives are unfriendly. To me, at any rate. I don't like them, so why shouldn't they be? 1 don't appreciate their sneaking children, they don't care for my horses. They could be Improved, of course, but 1 have no talent for that" ' Surely she came out of some buckram-bour.d, time spotted novel, her haughtiness and Illtemper revealed in fine, straining print “I am a native." he said. "You? Have you come back?" "No. in Maine. But I am reverting to type." Faster than you know, he thought \ Kit came in and handed Miss Searle a cool, slippery glass of milk. Miss Searle sipped it slowly. "Come to tea with me," she ordered. "Tomorrow." Kit looked at her measuredly. Then she spoke, “I'd like to learn to ride." “You can. You walk well, that means something to start with. I shall come over in the morning Put her in bloomers. Mr. Coomes There's no reason for learning side saddle. My father taught me —he insisted on the habit." She smiled faintly. She finished the milk, handed the glass back to Kit. and with a brief farewell strode out of the bouse and onto her horse. "Unhappy as the devil." murmured Marvell watching ner ride off. Kit was sweeping an imaginary long riding skirt around her legs "Did you like her?" “AH right.- Kit had not felt much at home with her. “Are we going to picnic now?" Marvell remembered suddenly that Kit's manners had not been i al. they should. “Walt a moment," I he said. "We owe Mim Searle for i the damage you did." i "I dida t know they were hem" i "It wasn’t gracious to throw < them at her." j , “She was cross; so were you." .

lon directly from the cup if it It served in a two-handled cup? A. Yes; but when it is served in a one-handled cup, or in a cup without handles, it should be taken with a spoon.

Til*' “So were you. You can afford to be gracious, Kit." "How ?" "Kindness, acted out That's your great feminine advantage, to act" She sighed, but she could afford kindness now, she was going to learn to ride tomorrow. “I will,” not entirely sure of what she was promising. • • • The next morning Kit was Impatiently waiting in the swing that hung between the two maples in front of the house. Her serge bloomers scratched unmercifully, and swinging kept her mind off her discomfort Promptly at ten. Mins Searle rode down the lane, leading a small gray mare. "Good morning!" she called, dismounting. "All ready, I see. Where's your father?" She had rather expected to show off her horsemanship In front of a fussy, apprehensive guardian. "He's walked down to the village." "Walked? Perhaps he should be learning to ride. I think we'll go up to the big meadow. It will be quite like a ring. You lead Ncru. She won't hurt you." Kit's stomach fluttered. She had never realized before that a horse was so big. But when she was astride, the marc's size seemed part of her own and the first lesson—to bump bareback around the field after Miss Searle, learning to grip with her knees—was a success. At the end of an hour. Miss Searle called a halt. Kit was tired and sweaty and rather mad that Marvell had not come back in time to see her in action. TU rest with you for a moment before I ride home. Is there anyone about at all, child? Arc you all alone?" "Mrs* Crane's inside. She’s getting lunch. She comes every day." "Mercy, she's a good soul but such a poor cook. 1 suppose Brewster sent her. Your father should get someone from town, a good Swedish woman. He should think of your diet. If not his own." They sat down in the swing. By keeping it in motion with her foot. Kit was able to give herself a scratch every now and then. "Does your father ride, Miss Searle?” asked KiL "My father passed on some time ago," said Miss Searle, removing her haL There was a faint red mark on her forehead where the hat had pressed too tightly. Kit thought that her light brown hair, drawn so tightly back from her ears, must hurt her, too. “But be did ride to perfection. He was an extraordinary man, my father. ' such a devoted husband and tender friend." Bhe dosed her eyes. , Kit watched her anxiously. , ' Would you like a glass at milk?" i "No, thank you." She looked down at Kit with large, light eye*. “In spite of all the demands on his i time—he was a lawyer with a , large practice, a civic leader. He -levoted himself to three children and tlie social life mv dear mother ( loved—" the tinge ot bitterness la ( the last phrase escaped Kit—"he always hsd an especial care for | me.

Is it correct for a guest to apologize if he is late for dinner. A Yes; he should apologize to his hostess. Tardiness for a dinner engagement is one of the most serious offenses. 0 ■ — —( Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE 0 — — Shoes Shoes will wear longer if several coats of copal varnish are applied to the soles and the vamps.

you?" ' ' '"“ L ' "My brother Amory Is abroad. My sister is married and lives in Boston. My mother has a very full life of her own." “1 haven’t any brothers or sisters or mother," said Kit, trying to copy Miss Searle's wistful tone. “But you have your father." Miss Searle smiled at her and put her hand on Kit’s forehead. Their eyes met and Kit forgot her itching, her nervous apprehension at the thought of mounting that huge, slippery back again tomorrow, her restless desire that Marvell would come home, as she was overborne with flattery at the earnest plead- , Ing in Miss Searle's large gray eyes. It was almost as if she were begging Kit to remember something, and Kit wanted to give her what she was asking for. Only she didn't know what It was. With a little thrill running down her spine she felt that she and Miss Searle were one person, one age, with one ' secret. Then, Just as Miss Searle opened her lips to speak, a tinny black new car flashed into the driveway, i Marvell jumped out and waved to the two under the trees Miss Searle and Kit watched him silently. Then Miss Searle got up , and taking Kit's hand, slowly * strolled across the grana "What a 1 lovely place this is," she murmured. "It never used to look like this when the Houghtons were here. It must be ycur living in it." She felt, rather than saw, the new 1 green everywhere, the pearly sun- | shine, the soft weather-beaten I house against the blue hills She ' pressed Kit’s hand a little tighter. "I waited for you," she said as 1 Marvell came up to them, "to band your daughter back all tn one piece. She is a good pupiL" "Did she ride that blueberry nag hethered up there?" “Neru is a fine jumper." “That's great, but are you?" and he winked at Kit who wished uneasily that he wouldn't make fun. "Stay and have something to eat. Miss Searle," She did not take her eyes off him. His hair was marked by a broad gray streak that glistened in the sun. She said abruptly, 'That is just what I was going to suggest May Kit lunch with me? The child may be overtired and a light lunch and a cool nap . . .* He looked thoughtful. Well, it was a friend for Kit and that pleased him, oddly enough, for be imagined Miss Searle didn't get on very well with moot people. “Sure, Kit may go." Kit danced up and down, partly • in pleasure, partly in defense against the scratchy serge. They walked toward the homes "I daresay Mrs Crane's all very well," Mias Searle began, “but everything is one the heavy side in the country. It might be possible, you know, to fret a good couple, Mr. Coomes. Dutch, preferably—the men are well trained farmers and the women's cooking simple, but . . Marvell Interrupted her. That’s a grand idea. Let me see you mount up, Kit." Miss Searle gave her an expert hand. Then she turned back to him. Tomorrow morning at ten well have another lesson, Mr. Coomes She mustn't miss a day if she is to progress. I'll drive her beck this afternoon." Marvell waved them off. He’d been all set to pack up a picnic and take them out in the new car. Kit hadn't even noticed it But a hone must be pretty exciting to her. He turned his back on the house and faced the barn and the newly ploughed field beyond. He was so angry that he shook a tittle. Then he laughed. ' B> God." he said aloud. “1 not only have to beat the Bartow*, but the Dutch."

Williams Simpler Cooking Fewer utensils and simpler cooking have become possible as gas and electric ranges have baen improved to give a greater selection of heats. The new ranges not onlygive faster high heat; they also offer a wider choice of low even heats —from simmering down to warming temperature. Thus, a saucepan often can be used where a double boiler once was a necessity, and protective device like asbestos mats are rarely needed. On older stoves which could not be turned low or gave uncertain heat, a double boiler was recommended for all milk and eg; mixtures. The water underneath was a necessary protection against too much heat and uneven hex’ But the newer ranges allow soft custard. white sauces or cocoa. for example to be cooked directly on simmering heat.

CHAPTER TWENTY THROUGHOUT that summer when Marvell's hands were tied to poison sprays, cultivators, unmanageable lengths of rubber hose and all the paraphernalia of smallscale farming that he began to detect more and more, he realized that Kit was drawing more close ' to Miss Searle than to him. It discouraged him when he thought of the twenty odd years difference in age, to say nothing of the sharp gap between the palliatives offered by Miss Searle and the natural, simple living he himself had planned for Kit. At night, be found himself almost too Bred to read aloud to her—but that, and the use ot his first name, seemed to be their only bond. And at times Kit, too, seemed drowsy, heavy with dreams of a world of her own that she left unwillingly each evening when she left Miss Scarla “What do you do?" be asked, hoping to draw her out more fully. "We ride, then I have a sponge bath with cologne In it. and then we have our lunch in the big living room on trays, and sometimes 1 take a nap or she tells ms stories . . ." “About what?" "Her papa,” she pronounced It the Victorian way and Marvell winced, "and where they used to go together. When she has a headache, I rub her head with cologne . . This is awful, thought Marvell. Here it is the longest, brightest time of the year and instead of running wild, barefoot, blueberrying or swimming in the pond with other kids, she pays for that one hour of riding with enervating afternoons spent in a musty house, listening to God knew what nonsense of old dreams and halftruth*. stuffed with Melba toast and I!-"* mange. “Rainy days, 1 dress up," Kit went on, her face glowing at the thought They're old dresses with little waists and valuable lacs and she's going to give them to a museum when she dies." "Why not now? She's dead from the neck up!" Kit looked shocked and he was immediately apologetic. "WTut to she doing up here all alone?" “Hqr papa died in the spring of 1913,” with so spt a mannerism that M'.rveU could almost count the number of times she had heard this sentence repeated. Thea she told him how a few years before Miss Searle and her father had opened the bouse together because Miss Searle couldn't stand parties or artificial life. Nor any kind ot competition la general, thought Marvell. Her brother, sister and mother all bad full, rich Uvea of their own. Kit went on seriously. . . .

Electric ranges manufactured in the last few years have surface units offering five or more heats in contrast to the three standard heats of many prewar ranges Many of the newer gas ranges have simmer settings of the valve handles In some the outer otecie of the burner may be cut off to leave only the center burning and this may Im? turn'd as low as desired.

Summertime Eating How much energy you expend, rather than the hot weather, determines whether you need more or less food In summertime. The widely-held view that the body needs less food during warm, summer weather applies if the perron slows down or Is less active. But summertime brings increased activity for many who go in for sports, gardening and other outdoor work. For these, more instead of fewer calories may be required Balanced meals which inclu le milk, fruit, and green vegetables each day. are just as important in hot weather as any other time of year Fruits and vegetables are especially appealing in hot weather. And their high water content helps replace water, lost in perspiration. Cold drinks — such as iced tea. and coffee, and fruit beverages — are all to the good in summt.*. as long as they do not replace mi k in the diet.

another world that he hoped would be closer to hers—" When I was a little boy . . ." He had just finished one talehow he had been late coming home from Sunday school one day and had taken a short cut by walking under the river, breathing by means ot a hollow pipe that rode to the surface, and how he’d tried to dry his best suit in tbs boiler room of a mill and watched with horror his suit shrink up his arms and legs, the buttons popping like steam gauges—when be saw the uneasy look on her face. "Don’t you believe any of this?" She nodded, only remembering her mother's favorite phrase. "Your father has too big an imagination, dear." which covered up many a discrepancy, and brought to mind what his mother must have said. "Didn't your mother get mad?" “No, ehe never got mad. Bhe got sad, which is worse. To pay for that suit ..." It had shrunk, that much was true—he bad fallen into the Penobscot—"ahe went out and sold a liniment. Dr. Oliver’s Oil. from door to door." There was a great deal he wanted to tell her about his mother, but she interrupted: ••Were you her only trouble?" He raised an eyebrow. This was the family tone, the condescending tons, which she must have picked up from Edith Searle. “I had a brother. He wanted to become a minister, but he died la the Spanish-American War." “Is everyone dead?” she asked with renewed interest. “We re all that's left" She thought a moment "Well, on my side there’s only Uncle Proctor, so we’re even.” Back where 1 started, he thought grimly. But Proctor’s out and I'm Wessod it I’m not a match for one old maid, • 1 • At the end of the summer when there was a kind of false armistice between the last plantings and the final harvest Marvell decided it was time to call a halt to ths irritating relationship between the woman and the child. In a few more weeks, thank God, Kit would be going off to achooi. and there would be no time for sentimental t*ily*ff*ffgfng. He thought be had chosen a subtle method of telling her off when he sent her over a box of Early Macs to repay her, be wroth, for Kit'S destruction of thoae first biousoma, to aay nothing, he added, for her own time and trouble in making his daughter at home tn Colcord, a job, he assured her. which he would now take on full time. Miss Searle was bewildered by this gesture. and took it for another proof of Mr. Coometf lack of finesse. When she reread the asta. she wondered if they were going back to their home in Boatoo for the winter.
