By ZOE BECKLEY -Takine advar.taxs of ler parents' absence at a dance and witi her blood stirred bj June madness. PJitiGY DEAN, typical New York flapper, shocks her sta.d cousin, WINNIE, by phoning to bho v a.N'hiiiu OUL and asking him to call for her at 11:30.

Bobby vanderpool relieved the situation with a laugh. “Righto, Pegs, my go-cart's outside.

Winnie, with a glance at Harker, followed. the silent athlete trailing along good-naturedly. ' The palm-filled, lantern-spangled Pompeiian Everglades, with its imi- j tation moonlight and jungle ringed about a dance space, was filled with a clientele too sophisticated to be good for high school girls. The head waiter, bored and unsurprlsable, led them to a ringside table and waited for the order. “Ginger ale all around, I guess,” ventured Bobby. Winnie, nervous hut determined, guessed at the reason for the ginger ale In a place like this—and had the eourage to order ice cream. Resisting public opinion and showing himself the good sport he was. Harker followed her lead without question. “Ginger pop for Bobby and me," anThe Dictionary of the Flapper CRASH IX —To go to a party un-1 inv’ted.

nounced Peggy defiantly, whereupon Bobby and the waiter held a whispered conversation. “Sorry, sir,” murmured the latter, “but there’s two prohibition men here tonight and the boss says the lid’s on —absolutely. Sorry.” Bobby, crestfallen, announced in a low tone the terrible news. Winnie looked relieved. Peggy
“MAYBE Tins WILL GO WITH THE GINGER POP, MR. VANDERPOOL?" **- frowned, and reached for Bobby’s cigaret case, took one out and lighted it. “Dam nuisance.” she grumbled through a cloud of smoke. At the next table, close to them, a man and woman so good looking and pretentiously dressed that one spotted them immediately for professionals of the stage, exchanged looks. Then quickly the man reached behind him, wrapped something in a napkin and passed it to his neighbors. "Maybe this will go with the ginger pop, Mr. Vanderpool,” said he with an amiable wing. And Bob turned round, surprised. (To Be Continued) (Copyright. 1922, XKA Service) GETS VALUABLE LOOT Daylight Burglar Ransacks Washington St. Apartment.
