CRACK LINERS OFF TO EUROPE WITH NOTABLES VVinter Rates Effective Today Cause Exodus of Americans. BY SAM LOVE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW Y6RK, Aug I.—Within an hour after winter east-bound passenger rates had gone into effect on the Atlantic today a fleet of six crack liners steamed down the Hudson River and out to sea, bearing to Europe the season’s greatest galaxy of American notables. Bargain counter prices attracted rich and middle-class alike. Multimillionaires whose purses would buy ocean-going vessels for their private use mingled with smallsalaried newlyweds making their first voyages. Steamship men said the exodus Was unprecedented. As early at 7 p. m. Sunday streets leading to the big piers along the Hudson were swarming with passengers and friends wjro had come to wish them bon voyage. Winter rates, which are cheaper than summer tourist rates, went into effect at midnight. Leviathan Leads The first of the ships, the gigantic United States liner Leviathan, nosed down the river shortly after midnight, its lights gleaming across the water and its decks ringing with gaiety. Then followed in quick succession the Cunarder’s Aquitania and Franconia, the Red Star’s Belgenland, the French line’s France, and the White Star’s Olympic. The voyage of the Leviathan, flagship of the United States lines, marked anew development in commercial aviation. Aboard was Clarence D. Chamberlin, trans-Atlantic flier, and a small airplane in which fce flew back to land this morning. Other notables among the Leviathan’s 1,450 passengers were Senator David A. Reed of Pennsylvania and Mrs. Reed; Reginald Denny and Mrs. Denny; Herman Cron, the big game hunter, and Prof. D. C. Jackson of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. A large crowd gathered at Pier 59, where James (Bud) Stillman and his northwoods bride boarded the Olympic shortly before it left for Southampton and Cherbourg. The Olympic’s passenger list already was bristling with notables including Clarence H. Mackay, Ralph Pulitzer, the Count and Countess Scherr-Thoss, Dr. Daniel Fish Jones of Boston, Abe Attel former lightweight boxer, John B. Miller, president of the Southern California Edison Company, Constance Talmadge and her mother, Mrs. James K. Hackett, Henry R. Rea and Henry Oliver Rea of Pittsburgh, Major P. A. Love of Montreal, and Dr. and Mrs. P. H. McNulty of Winnipeg. Journalists TouringLeaders in American journalism Bailed on the Aquitania, including George B. Parker, general editorial executive of the Scripps-Howard newspapers, with Mrs. Parker and two children, and Arthur Brisbane, editor of the New York American, with Mrs. Brisbane and two children. Parker will represent the Bcripps-Howard papers at the international press conference this month at Geneva. Other notables aboard the Aquitania were Russell C. Leffingwell, partner in J. P. & Cos., Herbert L. Pratt, president of the Standard Oil Cos. of New York, A. F. Pillsbury, the big flour merchant, and H. S. Wilcox, President of the {Troy Laundry Machine Cos. On the France were Walter Damrosch, New York symphony orchestra leader, Mrs. Damrosch, the Zitenfield twins, Bernice and Phyllis, 13-year-old swimmers who will attempt to swim the English channel. William J. Fox, president of the Encyclopedia Brittanica, and Raymond Horteig, hotel owner, and Mrs. Orteig.

No Stomach Pains Or Back-Ache Now Eats Heartily, Without Distress, Sleeps Soundly, and Is Full of Pep. Folks who drag themselves around; suffering from backache and stomach distress, will enjoy reading a letter recently written by Mrs. C. Larson, 917 Tenth Ave., Rockford, 111. She says: “For ten long years, I had severe stomach and kidney trouble and chronic constipation, and I suffered agony nearly all that time. After eating, gas formed, my stomach bloated, and I became nauseated. My kidneys pained me dreadfully, and were very irregular. I often had dizzy spells and headaches, and trouble with my eyes. My constipation was very bad for years. I had no appetite at all, and was so weak, nervous, and all worn-out that I really despaired of ever being well again. “But what difference Viuna made in me. I heard people talking about this wonder medicine and finally I decided to try it. Now I can eat a hearty meal and not have any of the old gas, pain or bloating. It helped my kindeys wonderfully, too. fThe backache is all gone and I sleep fine at night. I ar.i rid of the dizziness and headaches, and the constipation is greatly relieved. I feel ■well and strong all over, and it is simply wonderful to be in good health again.” Ylnna act# promptly bn sluggish bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys.

BEGIN HERE TODAY VERA CAMERON, assistant to JERRY MACKLYN, advertising manager for the Peach Blom Cosmetics Cos., falls suddenly in love with a man whom she hears called SCHUYLER. She overhears him say he wil be at Lake Minnetonka in June. Jerry Macklyn has just previously proposed to Vera that he transform her from her old-maidish type into a beauty, with the aid of Peach Bloom cosmetics. Vera has refused. Indignantly, but when she sees Schuyler, her need to be beautiful so she can go to Lake Minnetonka In June surmounts everything else and she agrees to Jerry’s plan. Vera’s emerald-green eyes remind Jerry of an uncaptioned Sunday supplement picture and he asks KITTY PROCTOR, professional beauty specialist, to use that picture as a model. During the transformation, Vera lives with Kitty Proctor and when Vera and Jerry, go to Vera’s apartment which she shares with her aunt, FLORA CARTWRIGHT. Flora Is astonished at Vera’s beauty. Flora agrees to teach Vera, all she knows about charm and appeal. When Vera asks Jerry to teach her how to be “fatal to men,” he demurs with a significant flush. Finally, however, he agrees' to “beau” Vera for three weeks prior to her trip to Minnetonka. They make it a foursome, including Flora and PETER DARROW. Flora Is de'ighted, for she thinks this will throw her In contact with Jerry. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER X mT w-as Saturday, June 18, and half past twelve o’clock. Vera Cameron was regarding with humorous dismay the array of packages which almost covered the flat top of her desk when Rosemary Fitch entered, carrying a large parcel. i

“Hello, Vee-Vee! It won’t be long now! Aren’t you thrilled to tears at the thought of being away from work until after the Fourth? “Here’s a vacation gift from Mr. Canfield, and my dear, it’s the first time, in the memory of the oldest inhabitant, that Stephen M. Canfield ever gave a girl a box of candy on her departure for a vacation. Five pounds! I’m staggering under the load!” “Isn’t he a dear?” Vee-Vee laughed. “Every one has been marvelous to me. Just look! French perfume, a complete kit of Peach Bloom Cosmetics with my initials in gold, from Mr. Benham, you know; five boxes of candy, three boxes of flowers, half a dozen of the new books—oh, I never dreamed people could be so sweet, Rosemary.” “People?” Rosemary laughed, a little maliciously. “You mean men, don’t you? How many of these marvelous presents are from girls? Not one, I’ll bet my week’s salary.” “You win!” Vee-Vee laughed. “I, for one, am glad you’re going away, even if it is only for two weeks,” Rosemary confessed. “And gladder still that the old man is being dragged off to Europe by his daughters. I suppose Jerry Mr. Macklyn—has told you that I’m to be his secretary while you’re away. You can stay as long as you like, Vee-Vee. Don’t hurry back on my account!” Vera was startled by the pang of jealously that contracted her heart. “He’s a decent sort to work for, Rosemary, but I’m afraid you’ll find it’s a pretty heavy hot weather job. I never saw such a fiend for work.” “You seem to have stood up under it pretty well,” Rosemary Fitch retorted. “As I’ve told you a dozen times, I never saw anything like your transformation, Vee-Vee. I’ll

never forget that first day that you came down, with your hair bobbed and in that gorgeous ensemble suit. Not a soul in the organization recognized you. “Remember how Ruth Hall thought you were Mr. Macklyn’s new secretary and told you all about Vera Cameron, the girl who used to work for him? I thought I’d die, it was so funny!” “I remember,” Vee-Vee acknowledged, her mouth tightening “It was—very funny. Will you thank Mr. Canfield for me, Rosemary? I’m afraid I won’t have time to write him a note. I’ve got a thousand things to do before my train leaves tonight,” she hinted, praying that jealous little Rosemary would leave. “Is Jerry—Mr. Macklyn—in?” Rosemary dropped her voice to a whisper as she glanced toward the closed door of Jerry’s private office. “No, he’s at the printer’s. But I’m expecting him back by one o’clock. He wanted to see me before I left,” Vee-Vee answered, busying herself at her dask. “Where are you going on your vacation. Vee-Vee?” Rosemary asked. “That’s a secret,” Vee-Vee smiled. “I’m not telling anyone.” “The girls say you’ve been spending all your noon hours shopping, and that Jerry has given you three half days off, in addition to Saturday afternoons,” Rosemary persisted. “You must be going to Newport or to Hollywood to get into the movies. I wouldn’t blame you a bit. “You’re the most stunning thing I ever saw, with that gorgeous cop-per-colored hair and those green eyes. Listen, Vee-Vee, will you tell me one thing? Are you engaged to Jerry Macklyn? “All of us know he’s wild about you and that he’s been rushing you like mad. I saw you at Smallwood's and at the Manhasset Yacht Club with him—” “I’m not engaged to Mr. Macklyn, Rosemary,” Vee-Vee interrupted her rather sharply. “I have no strings on him at all. You can spend the entire two weeks I’m gone vamping him if you want to. And—good luck to you!” “Oh, thanks, Vee-Vee! I think he’s simply precious. Is he a good dancer?” ’’Divine,” Vee-Vee said curtly. “But he’s a dictator. It’s all I can do to take his letters when he’s working at high tension. And he has a most annoying habit of doing most of his dictating around 4 o’clock, and expecting every letter to be written before his secretary leaves. “I’m just warning you,” she added casually, turning back to her desk so that Rosemary should not have a chance to fathom the expression in her green eyes. “You can’t scare me off,” Rosemary laughed. “Good-by, Vee-Vee, dear. Have a good time—but don’t hurry back.” When Rosemary had gone Vera Cameron began to open and close the drawers of her desk, her mind a chaos of emotions. An hour ago she had been so happy in the realization that the eighteenth of June had finally arrived. The goal for which stye had

ing weeks was just ahead. Her reservation had been made for a room and bath at the expensive, exclusive Minnetonka Hotel. Her railroad and Pullman tickets were snugly secure in her new lizardskin handbag. Two wardrobe trunks were already packed and checked through to Lake Minnetonka. She whispered the name—“ Schuyler!” But for once it failed to evoke his image. She sat, cold with fright at the enormity of the thing she had done. Intoxicated with her new beauty —beauty made possible by Jerry Macklyn—she had recklessly, magnificently, “shot her bank roll” to dress that beauty as it deserved. Well—she drew a deep, quivering breath that portrayed her panic—it was done now, for better or worse. She had just enough money left to pay for two weeks in the Minnetonka Hotel. She had been so frantically busy getting ready for her sortie into the world of idleness and fashion in search of the man she had fallen in love jvith, that she had not time to be frightened before. Now that she was ready to go a black swarm of fears swooped down upon her, squeezing at her heart, sending prickles of goose-flesh all over her body. What if “Schuyler” had changed his mind, was not at the Minnetonka after all? What a tool she would have made of herself! How Jerry Macklyn would laugh at her if she came back, penniless and defeated! And even if “Schuyler” was at the Minnetonka, what right did she have to suppose, for one insane moment, that she could make him desire her above all other women—women of his own set, women of wealth, fashion and charm? And weren’t the chances pretty strong in favor of his already being married? He must be at least 30, and most eligible men are not allowed to reach 30 without being trapped into marriage. What a fool, what a fool she was! She beat her clenched hands against her desk. “Hello, there! All set to go?” Vee-Vee looked up, startled, into Jerry Macklyn’s broadly smiling, ruddy face. “Nearly ready,” she replied, rising. “I’m glad you got back before I left. Rosemary Fitch was in—she brought me a five-pound box of candy from Mr. Canfield—” “Got the old man going too?” Jerry chuckled. “This vamping of yours is assuming the proportions of a scandal. I’ve been to the printer’s—got proofs on those ads and the booklets. It looks great—“ctter even than I’d hoped. “You photograph like a million dollars. Believe me, young woman, you’re going to be famous from Portland to Portland when these ads of ‘The Peach Bloom Girl’ come out. Ziegfeld and the movie producers will be wiring us for your name and to offer you staggering contracts—here, look!” Jerry spread a series of printer’s

proof’s across the top of the desk. Two photographs stared up at her from each of the pages—a picture of a plain, dowdly, freckled girl, her eyes concealed by horn-rimmed spectacles, and, in amazing contrast, a picture of Vera Cameron after the miracle had been wrought —a breath-takingly beautiful girl. Jerry’s cheerful voice boomed on, ignoring her dismayed silence: “And here are proofs on the booklet that will be mailed to every woman in the social register, from New York to San Francisco, and distributed free by every retailer of Peach Bloom cosmetics.

“Wrote it myself, and if I say so as shouldn’t, it’s a wow! ‘The Ugly Duckling: A Modern Fairy Story,’” he quoted with relish. "Tells the whole story of how a homely, unattractive stenographer was turned into the prettiest girl in the United States —the Peach Bloom Girl herself. ‘'That booklet alone will sell millions of dollars worth of Peach Bloom Cosmetics, or I’m a liar, or a fool that doesn’t know the first principles of the advertising game.” Vera clenched her icy hands to keep them from seizing upon the sheets and tearing them to bits. Then, made reckless by desperation, she took a quick step toward Jerry Macklyn, laid her hands oh his shoulders, raised her pale face, with its tear-lumintous green eyes and implored him: “Jerry, don’t humiliate me like this! Please, Jerry, I couldn’t bear it to have my picture broadcast—for people to laugh at and joke about—oh, can’t you see how it would humiliate me? I’d rather die, Jerry—” Jerry Macklyn reached for her hands, held them in a grip that hurt her, but his face was grim and his blue eyes were suddenly like cold steel. "I’ll tear up these ads—on one condition, Vera!” Color flamed in her cheeks. She struggled to release her hands. “And that—is?” “That you give up your trip to Lake Minnetonka!” (To Be Continued) Will Vee-Vee recognlie what I* In Jerry Macklyn’s mind, and give up her trip to Lake Minnetonka?
