Only when Daddy said he’d rent the ponies for us, you were doing Jots better than I was in algebra, and I guess he thought we and help each other and all. “I guess Daddy thought we’d each work for the other, like true friends should. I guess he never even dreamed that you’d go and flunk.” “It wasn’t my fault I flunked, was it? We can swim, anyway.” “No, we can’t,” said Ermintrude. “Well, why can’t we?” “Daddy and mother were up there yesterday tending to final arrangements and all, and they watched them empty the pool, and they say there Is a foot, anyway, of stagnant water that won’t empty out. and they won’t let me swim for fear of infection, and they are going to advise against it to everybody, and mother says she won't be responsible for the girls that do, and the tournament is out of the question.” “Well,” accused Mary-Frances, “I must say! That’s nice, isn’t it? If we can’t ride and can’t swim, what can we do?” Nothing. Everything is ruined. Just, ruined. Unless, maybe, you didn't flunk in algebra after all.” Their sighs joined and sank in the sunshine. “I’ll tell you one thing I won’t do,” said Ermintrude. “I won’t sit around and read poetry all the time. I won’t do it, Mary-Frances. And I won't let on to the other girls, like you said, about you and Earl, either. “Suppose I did, and one of the girls—Barbara Flaxton for instance, it would be just exactly like her—should go and tell her mother, and Mrs. Flaxton would tell, Mother, and it would all come back on me?” “Ermintrude,” said Mary-Frances, wisely patient, “is that very sensible? It would come back on me, wouldn’t it? It wouldn’t come back on you, would it?” “Well, I won’t do it, anyway,” declared Ermintrude. “I just have one of those strong psychic hunches of mine that I'd better not. You know how I am when .1 have one of t hose ” Mary-Frances said. “All right, darling.” hurriedly. The Are house was just around the corner. “I always trust your psychic hunches, and you know I do. I expect, maybe, we can coax your mother into letting us swim.” "Nobody,” said Ermintrude, from the depths of sad experience, “can coax either my mother or my daddy into anything.” “They’ll mellow. I expect,” prophesied Mary-Frances. “Grand and Rosalie say that age mellows everybody and everything. They,” boasted Mary-Frances, “can be roaxed into anything. Ann and Cissy aren’t so good. They’re like your mother and daddy—they’ve got to mellow.. I’ll wait right here for you darling.” Ermintrude took the letter, written on Rosalie’s orchid note paper, looked at it for an instant, put it to her nose. But. “I think you’ve got too much perfume on it,” was her only voiced objection. She went. Mary-Frances waited. tt n “pRMINTRUDE! I thought you 11/ were never coming back. Did you find him?” “Course I found him. He was right in his room, and he opened the door when I knocked.’’ “What’d he say when he saw you?*” “He Just said, Hello,’ kind of funny.” “What’d you say?” “I said. Here.' ’

“Did you give him the letter?” “Yes. That's what I did when a said, ‘Here.’” “What'd he say then?” “Nothing. He just looked funny and put it in his pocket.” “Did you tell him that you brought it ’cause there wasn’t time to mail it?” “No, I forgot. He’ll know, anyway, won't he, when he reads the letter?” “What’d you say he said after you said, ‘Here’?” “Nothing. He just looked funny and put it in his pocket.” “Which pocket, Ermintrude?” “His outside coat pocket.” “Did he start, or pale, or tremble, or anything?” “No. He just looked funny.” Conceded, then, that he looked funny. Perhaps he felt funny, for his reply to Mary-Frances’ letter was an amusing, almost humorous affair: “Dear Sweetie—Y’rs rieceved. So how about tomorrow Tues. afternoon at 4 at the chop suey joint upstares over Palmer’s and Cos. I will be waiting there for my sweeties. Y’rs, E. P. S. If you can not make it give me a buzz or drop me a line by male saying when snd where date would be convenient. XXXXX.” The crosses, as any one knows, stood for kisses pledged. Bunt Hung Ch ; n See’s Chop Suey Parlor (Chinese and American Cooking. 35c Merchants’ Lunch. Dinner 50c), at 4 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, was no place for candid, straightforward things like kisses. It was, rather, a place for wit and fancy, finesse and artifice and intrigue. Great colorful fly-specked lanterns were hooked up on the ceiling, and wind bells, though broken. would have tinkled had there been a stirring of air in the deep stillness of the dim soiled room that smelled of old, old chop sueys and dear dead chow meins, with such such sauce, too. The tablecloths were spotted, and the dishes were chipped, and all the glorious Orient would have glowed, more than likely, if the lights had been turned on; and sloe-eyed boy in coat and apron, which had once been white, stole around through all this glamorous glamor and slopped tea and scantily fulfilled their meager wants. tt tt B EARL would have only green tea, and that, not strong. Earl was off his feed: stumeek trouble, he said, which got worse on him if he didn’t watch it. Which, anyway, was almost sure to get worse on him until he could get to Mendel Springs and stay overnight, at least, and drink of its mineral waters. So Mary-Frances, who did not care for tea, ordered nothing but a glass of milk and a slice of custard pie, and she finished them up quickly, and after that she ate nothing except small soup crackers from the smudged bowl on the table. But these she ate with such an l air, picking each one daintily from the dish and poising it near her lips for a moment or two before she popped it in, that it seemed almost as if she were smoking cigarets and not eating anything at all. Conversation had lapsed. Earl reopened it. “Excuse me, Frankie he said, “but you got kind of a mustache of milk on your mouth.” Mary-Frances blushed and ap- ! plied a paper napkin. “You’re pretty,” he said. “Cripes! ! You’re awful pretty. But aren’t you afraid of getting fat, drinking milk and eating such heavy food between meals?” “Fat!” protested Mary-Frances. He qualified, “Well, plump—anyways.” “I certainly am not. I'm away under weight, and my sister Ann and everybody worries about my being so—well, slender. My constant fight—just fight, fight all the time to keep from being right down skinny.” "Sure. I know. Just the same, , you can't always tell. You got a | swell little shape, and if I was you i I wouldn’t take chances with it.” Mary-Frances swallowed a cracker and pouted. ‘ I’d look a lot better if I weighed five or ten pounds more. Everybody says so.” a a tt YOU look good enough for me right now,” Earl redeemed himself. “There ain’t a girl on. big time today as good-looking as you are—and that’s saying a mouthful.
Perfect ideal awn-jew-nay type, like I’ve been telling you all along. Now, listen, hon: the trouble with you is that in a way you're your own worst enemy—see? You don't look into the future—see? “What’s it going to get you, sticking around in this one-horse burg? You don't have any fun—you don’t have anything, sticking around here—’’ “I know I don't,” said MaryFrances. The algebra .examination marks had been given out. that morning. Ermintrude, with a B—had been neither agreeable nor comforting concerning Mary-Fran-ces’ F. Ann and Cecily would about it. It would be just like them to insist on summer tutoring and an examination in the fall. The girls’ camp, by this time, was promising little of real worth. “Just a drab, dreary, misunderstood life,” finished Mary-Frances. “You said it, hon. Now I’m telling you. Look at it from a broader point of view—see? The world’s waiting for us, Frankie. Waiting with open arms—see? “Give the world something it wants, and there ain’t anything the world won’t do for you. I’m not stringing you along. Honest Im not, hon. “We could number our public from coast to coast, and with any kind of break, on over to the European countries and all. “I’m not saying you’d be so hot by yourself—see? Or that you could start out alone, with no ex- : perience nor nobody to protect and . steer you right and make good. i “I’m not saying that—see? I’m | telling you that with the act this ! guy in Denver would fix up for you and I we could knock ’em cold. Cold! “We’d have to start in a small way, maybe. Not the swell drops nor all that we'd get later—but look at the future. I'm telling you, Frankie, there’s no limit to where a couple can go, once they got popularity. “Thousands of dollars in radio ! auditions. Vitaphone acts. Testi- j monials —cigarets, mattresses, pills—everything. Look at Lindbergh and what he turned down. Look at Rudy—” “Ovations?” questioned MaryFrances. “I’ll tell the world.” (To Be Continued) DEMOCRAT SUES PAPER Called Him a Republican, Texan Complains; Asks $15,000.

TARZAN THE TERRIBLE
Only a portion of the grotesque creature’s back was visible to Tarzan. The rest of its body was lost in the dense shadows beneath the tree. On a level with the ape-man’s eyes, the ridge of its backbone loomed twenty feet high. From every spinal vertebra grew a thick, heavy horn. Now arose the sound of giant jaws powerfully crunching flesh and bones, telling Tarzan the strange mammoth was feeding upon the lion's carcass the ape-man had slain the yight before.

As Tarzan’s eyes, straining with curiosity, vainly .sought to get a better view of the creature, he felt a light touch upon his shoulder. Turning, he saw that his companion, the manthing, with his forefinger to his lips was cautioning silence. And at the same time he attempted by pulling on Tarzan’s arm to indicate that they should leave at once. The ape-man did not readily consent to give up this chance to inspect a creature he judged was entirely different from anything in his past experience.
—By Ahem
But he realized he was tn a strange country evidently infested by ugly creatures of titanic size, with habits and powers of which,he was entirely unfamiliar. He also knew there were enough dangers ahead of him without courting this unknown one. So he allowed the manthing to have its way and followed as it descended the tree on the opposite "side of the • nocturnal prowler. The two companions moved silently away through the dim shadows across the plain, r

As the son rose, Tarzan found himself again upon the verge of a great forest. Into this his guide plunged, taking nimbly to the tree branches. Though aided by his prehensile tail, fingers and toes, the man-thing moved through the forest with no greater ease or surety than did the giant ape-man. Both sped along for several miles with the effortless celerity which came from long habit and hereditary instinct, before tte man-thin* dropped to earth upon a grassy ps
