CHAPTER XL IILA breathed easily again. She / and Herbert were happy once more. Uncle Dan, now speeding west, had fulfilled his role of deus ex machina with complete success. Except for Jack she would have been completely happy. Jack had called the day following his hasty dismissal. She had told the butler to say to all callers that Mrs. Ware was out. •It was a prearranged signal, and When Jack received the message he kfiew he could not keep an appointment with Lila. ' ; Lila wanted to hurt and punish Jack. He was too masterful and exacting. She loved those qualities in Herbert, but in a man for whom she had not the slightest sentimental interest, they were wearisome and annoying. She was meeting Dorothy at a picture gallery for an exhibition that afternoon, and she walked down the avenue in the bright warm sun. At Fifty-seventh street, she was forced to w r ait at the curb‘for traffic to pass. A voice spoke her name. “Miss Latham! Lila? Arn’t you going to speak to me?” ; She turned and saw Gilroy Holmes. Her heart dropped to the tips of her smart pumps. “I'm very glad to meet you,” he said soberly taking off his hat. Lila was confused. “Hello#” she said lamely. “You knew about Jack,” she added after a pause. [ “Yes, Jack has some fantastic idea apout our having an affair here in New * 7 ork. He’s all mixed up. Pleas ro what you can to straighten him out.” “I’ll try,” promised Lila. “And it has been good to see you again. I’m sure we’ll meet another timeT She prayed in her heart that they •wouldn’t. They parted, going in opposite directions. Nut atop a passing bus was Jack Farquahar, who had been refused admittance to see Lila. He saw his ope-time friend and his sweetheart talking at the curb. So! Lila had turned him down far Holmes. She had refused to see him and then paraded the avenue with Gill. 'lt never occurred to Jack that the meeting was chance. He saw only an appointed rendezvous. 'Something had to come, and quickly, thought Jack. He made up hi smind. He would go to Mrs. jjerbert Ware, herself, to enlist her aid in making Lila see how reprehensible her conduct was. n tt tt ON the following morning Lila had an appointment with her hairdresser and manicurist. They arrived shortly after the breakfast tray had been cleared, and she gav.herself over to their ministrations. Just as Felix finished Lila’s coiffure, Dorothy arrived looking crisp and fresh in anew summer frock of beige and old blue. She perched on the end of Lila’s chaise longue and watched Felix work. At that moment the butler arrived with a card on a silver salvor. Lila glanced at it and went pale It was from Jack, and on it were written these words: “Will you forgive this unconventional hour and request. I beg to see you on a matter of utmost importance to Miss Latham and myself. Captain Jack Farquahar.” Dorothy’s brows rose. “What to do,” she murmured. “I just can’t see him,” cried Lila. "I won’t see him.” ‘But, Lila, I-—Dorothy began and glanced at Felix. Lila dismissed the hairdresser and closed the door after him. ‘Lila, he wants to see ‘Mrs. Ware’ and not Lila Latham,” Dorothy reminded. There was a queer silence. Then: “Dot.” Dorothy looked at her. “You will have to see him for me. Say you are; Mrs. Ware. He will get suspicious if I keep putting him off. See what he wants.”

From the very way that Tony curled herself upon his lap and cuddled her fresh, camellia-white young cheek against his, Pat Tarver knew that his daughter was going to wheedle something out of him. “Has Tony been a good girl, Pat?” she murmured cajolingly. “Has she? ... I don’t know? How should I know? I’m only her father,” Pat retorted. “She has,” Tony assured him brazenly. “She’s only kissed four men this week. Has Pat been a good boy?—you handsome devil!” “A model husband and father,” Pat groaned comically. “But I’m not making any promises. . Well, what do you want? Come clean!” Tony hedged, or appeared to do .so. “You didn’t really mean it—what you said about not letting me learn to fly, did you, beloved?” “You’re darned right I did!” Pat blustered, making as if to dump her from his lap. “If I catch you in a plane ” “If you do, you’ll have to fly high, wide and handsome,” Tony giggled. “Pat, please don’t have a stroke or swallow that one false back tooth of yours, or anything foolish like tHat, but—l have been up in a plane.” “Your mother was right about Sandy Ross!” Pat exploded, his handsome Black-Irish face darkening with real anger. “He’s a bad influence on you, Tonny ” “Oh, Pat, that’s delicious!” Tony laugher, kissing him. But Pat growled. “Now, listen to me, young lady, you stay on the ground! No more skylarking with Sandy Ross!” “Yes, sir,” Tony agreed, very meekly. “But—l suppose it’s all right for me to —to go up by myself, isn’t it?”

Dorothy rose with a shrug and took her hat off. “All right, I’ll do it for your sake. But I’m not crazy about the role.” Very reluctantly Dorothy went to the door. “I never meant to meet him, Lila, but since it is the only way to save you, I suppose I’ve got to go through with it. In the drawing room Jack paced restlessly while waiting for Mrs. Ware. He felt he must do something to find the truth about the bewildering situation. He paused at a window. The opening of a door brought him up short, and he turned quickly. The room was rather dim after the bright sunlight in the street at which he had been staring. “Mrs. Ware, I .must ask you pardon”—he started. He saw a slim pretty girl, a girl with candid smiling eyes. “Pardon me, I wished to speak with Mrs. Ware.” Dorothy was so unlike the “Mrs. Ware” Lila had described that Farquahar was bewildered. Dorothy put him at his ease and assured him that Lila was only joking when she described her as semiinvalid. Jack bared his heart to “Mrs. Ware” and enlisted her aid. “Do you believe I could succeed

How to Grow Graceful

GIVE FEET A HAND 5jC qf q* Proper Placing Lends Grace

This is the fifth of a series of six articles on “How to Grow Graceful.” written exclusively for NEA Serivce and The Times by Doris Niles, youngest American dancer to head her own ballet organization. BY DORIS NILES For NEA Service THE American girl has beautiful feet, and the surpassing art shown in every variety of American footwear is worthy of her. At no period in the history of dress have girls’ feet been more prominent, and consequently requiring greater skill in management. Therefore, the vexed question of what to do gracefully with the hands has now added to it another and more difficult one, graceful use of the feet. To eliminate any extreme position of the feet in walking, if the habit is abnormal in either toeing in or toeing out, practice the straight foot line. By this I mean to walk along a straight line in the design on a carpet. See that the feet are planted straight and properly on that line and continue so throughout the exercise, made a few minutes at a time. In addition, thought and attention should be given the straight line principle in general walking. The fault will soon vanish. I have had to give exercises in this same direction to many aspirants for my ballet, who came to me from over-technical masters. This usually results from overtraining in the so-called “turn out position,” necessary to a certain degree in toe dancing, but a great fault in interpr ’tative or other forms of dancing. This faultaffects equally the natural beauty of walking or positions of the feet in repose. I have seen people sit in a brilliant ballroom when the feet and hand positions absolutely marred an otherwise beautiful picture they would have made. Relaxed repose and grace were the things needed. But they were leaning with elbows on knees and with their toes turned in, or some equally ugly position. It is a strange truth that emotions which may be concealed in a person’s face find unconsciously telltale expression in the feet. Self - consciousness, nervousness,

Pat collapsed then and Tony fanned him furiously with a scrap of paper. When he was able to storm again, he seized her wrist and took the bit of cardboard from her. “tyhat’s this?” “Just—just my pilot’s license,” Tony admitted, still in her meekest little-girl voice. Then, her voice growing rich with the thrill of it: “Oh, Pat! Just think— I’m a real, honest-to-goodness aviator! I won’t be called an ‘aviatrix.’ The first in this state, Pat—the very first girl aviator! Aren’t you proud of me?” Pat Tarver put his head in his hands and groaned in very genuine misery. Tony wiggled into his lap again and consoled him, as only Tony could. “ There’s really no danger, darling Pat. You know I wouldn’t risk getting all bunged up myself. . . Flying isn’t any more dangerous than driving a car, honestly! Cross my heart! Sh-h-h! . Here comes Peg. Not a word to her, or I’ll be clapped into a nunnery!” She was glad of a chance to escape from the spectacle - of Fat’s misery. “Just look there! A run in them new $5 silk stockings!” Peg Tarver detained her daughter fretfully. “At this rate we’ll be bankrupt in a year.” “Sorry, Peg!” Tony answered, with unusual docileness. “But it won’t matter about the run now. I’m only going to dash over to see Crystal. I’ve just realized that Sunday’s nearly gone and I haven’t seen her all day.” Fajth admitted Tony. “Crystal? Why, she s’aid she was going somewhere with you. She left an hour ago.” And there was sudden acute worry in Faith’s brown eyes. (To Be Continued)

where you have failed?” “Mrs. Ware” asked with a slight smile. “I think you could succeed in anything,” he answered abruptly. He was thinking that she gave him the impression of coolness and strength and dependability beneath her soft, pretty, fashoinable exterior. He felt that here yras one young woman who would never fail a friend or a sweetheart. Herbert Ware was certainly a lucky dog. ‘After that flattery, I should hardly dare fail, Captain Farquaher,” she laughed, rising. “I promise you to do what I can, but you must not be disappointed, if everything doesn’t work out immediately as you wish.” "If only I have succeeded in enlisting your aid, Mrs. Ware, I am quite satisfied.” He took the hand she extended. It was small and cool and firm. He bent over it, murmured his thanks for the interview she had accorded him, and was gone. Dorothy stood in the middle of the floor, as he had left her. There was a curious expression in her pretty eyes. (Copyright. 1928. Metropolitan Newspaper Service, New York) (To Be Continued).

timidity may be revealed in hands and feet by twisting and restless movements, though the countenance is calm. Proper pose of the feet in relaxed graceful position while sitting, and when standing to shift the weight of the body occasionally and easily from one foot to the other, will give a touch of elegance to any figure.

How Bright Is Your Baby?

Does your baby like music? How can you tell whether he enjoys musical sounds? A dog often howls when he hears music. He seems to be afraid. Loud musical tones may frighten baby. Soft musical tones please and soothe him. So we sing lullabies—and .Sometimes he stays awake just to hear the lullaby! Here are some statements about babies and music. If you believe a statement is true, underline True; if you do not believe it, underline False. 1. Baby is soothed by gentle True rhythmical movements. False 2. Babies enjoy noise. True False 3. Month-old babies enjoy True singing and playing. False 4. Baby shows his pleasure in music by accompany- True ing it with movements. False 5 Babies are equally pleased True by all music. False 6. Baby learns to enjoy True sounds that are repeated. False 7. If baby listens silently \ and intently to music, it may be that he has un- True usual talent. False 8. So netimes baby sings a True tare before he can speak. False 9. Bab> sometimes imitates True mother’s lullaby. False 10. When baby is about 2 years old, he enjoys sing- True ing. 5 False 11. All little children can carry a tune equally True well. False 12. Only bright children can True carry a tune. False 13. Children sing only the True tunes they hear. False 14. Baby often hears the melody in ordinary con- True versation. False

Key to Questions

True 1. At the beginning of the third week baby responds to those movements. 2. Unless the noise is loud and sudden or continued too long. 3. True. 4. So do adults, but grown-ups pay attention to what other people will think and so their movements are less obvious. 7,8, 9,10. True. 14. Before baby can talk he imitates the cadences of sentences. False 5. Babies as young as 6 months cry when sad music is played and jump and laugh if lively airs are played. 6. Enjoyment of regularly recurring sounds is instinctive. 11. False. 12. Even feeble-minded children can sing, and some of them very well. 13. Children invent tunes. Next we will have something to say about the “Little Artist.” (Copyright, 1928, Science Service, Inc.)

Realizing that a great number of people are interested in meeting the first lady of the land, Mrs. Coolidge twice a week held receptions in the Blue Room. It was said of Mrs. Coolidge that she made more friends and was better liked than any first lady of recent years. She was kindly, democratic, charming. ”' r7
