Lottie, and Steve to spend Sunday at hla uncles palatial country home. They hnage the trip tn Steve s roadster. CHAPTER SEVENTEEN (Continued.) "That may be,” returned Lottie. “I don t know. But Barry Townsend Is in love with you.” She struck her little finger with the forefinger of the other hand meditatively.” He moons around whenever you are near and beside that—he told me bo!” “Told you so?” ‘ Practically.” Lottie opened the door and the faint odor of coffee reached them. They could hear Barry's laugh, Steve's admonition to the dogs. Someone called: 'Breakfast!” but Mona did not stir. ‘ Barry told you he was in love 'with me, Lottie?” she demanded. "You you didn't ask him?” "I should say not! He told me so Without the slightest asistance.” ‘ When?” demanded Mona, incrrduously. Lottie considered. “Let me see. Just one week ago. It was last Monday at 5:30 sharp.” “Where?” , “Over the tea table. At Sherry’s.” CHAPTER EIGHTEEN MONA whirled, powder puff in hand. "At Sherry’s?” she asked. “You went to tea with Barry at Sherry's?” ”Yes.” “But I didn't know—l mean you didn't—!” Lottie nodded shamelessly. “And a very good tea it was, too. Barry wanted to talk to me. silly!” She went on in a different tone. “We couldn't stand very well an ‘the street corner! “Yon see it happened this way. My name is in the telephone book. Barry told me it took him an hour to find my last name and then he had to call the shop. How he remembered even the first Is a mystery to me! He generally calls me ‘Hey, you!’ .Haven't you noticed? Well, he asked me to tea, said he couldn’t make it dinner because of another engagement. ”1 met him at 5:30 and right away Barry wanted to know if he had been horning in between you and Steven. Said Steve would hand you over if the day had been set for the wedding if he thought Barry loved you, because that's the way Steve is. "Anything Barry wants, Steve hands over!” "Barry has done a lot for Steve, too,” Mona said uneasily. “Yes, and he’s dying to do a lot for you. Listen! I told him on my honor that you cared only for Steve in a sisterly way. I said it was the same with Steve. Pals in school days and all that.” Lottie’s eyes grew softly reminiscent of that tea hour when Barry had blurted out his love for Mona. “Well.” she concluded, “I guess I’d better leave some of this for him to tell you first-hand. “It's quite an earful, let me add! Isn’t it time to go downstairs now? I’m starved!” s Arm in arm the two girls went down the broad staircase. Barry met them below. “Thought you had disappeared permanently!" he said. “Let's go! Breafast is waiting.” M M tt HE led the way past the drawing room, past his uncle's library, to the dining room. A fire crackled on the hearth, licking the birch logs with which Mason, now and then, replenished it. Mrs. Faxon was absent, but Barry explained they would see her at dinner. Mason served the delicate

viands cooked by Jean, his wife. There was orange juice, cereal with thick cream, an oyster omlette with delicate curls of bacon, muffins and coffee. Steve ate as though he enjoyed the food and Mona observed how at home he seemed in Barry's environment. Barry frequently tossed tidbits to the dog, his left hand dangling to cares a a velvet ear. “Want to have a look at the grounds?” he asked as they rose. Unathletic save on the dance floor, Lottie vetoed the walk. “You two run along,” she urged with a sly wink at Steve. “I have something I haven't told Steve about.” "Go ahead,” Steve said. “I’ve something I've been wanting to tell Lottie ever since I met her.” But his smile was for Mona. Barry found a beret and huge sweater for Mona and presently they set off. Half a dozen dogs greeted them excitedly as they appeared on the lawn. Mona and Barry stood for a moment, the crisp air filling their lungs. “Great stuff! cried Barry, breathing deeply. “And yet,” Mona pointed out, “you’re leaving it.” ‘Oh, yes! My business, you see, isn’t here.” They set out briskly on the road leading toward the stables. ‘You must rough it at the mines,” Mona said. Barry shook his head. “No, we don’t rough it. I shouldn’t say that.” Mona spread her hands to indicate Twilands at one motion. “This is luxury! Surely—” Barry nodded. “Luxury. And

Senatorial Courtesy! WHAT is that strange thing that makes a dry legislator (drinking wet) behave as if a woman who advocates repeal of the Wright bone dry law Is not entitled to respect? In the many years that women prohibition advocates have lobbied in legislative halls, they have been treated with uniform respect and courtesy by wet representatives and senators. Yet when a proponent of

“IT is fairly clear that the ecoAnomic crisis in the United States . . . still has a long road to go before it turns, and the hope for an early recovery must be postponed indefinitely.” This cheerful little prediction comes from “What’s Wrong With the World?” a spirited essay by Dr. Wilhelm Roepke, German economist. Dr. Roepke probably would say, “Practically everything,” to the question in his book’s title, and he writes several rather gloomy chapters to show how come. Bacikof the world depression, he says, first and last, lies the World war, which not only destroyed a tremendous amount of material wealth, but which also made inevitable the post-war economic boom which exploded with such a loud bang in October, 1929. More directly responsible, however. he says, is the German reparations muddle. He wrote his book before the recent reparations ment was signed: but his firm declaration that the world can not recover until the reparations load is lifted makes one wonder uneasily what will happen if the settlement falls through. Dr. Roepke, incidentally, has a comprehensive answer for those people who insist that the whole trouble lies in the way Germany misused the credit she obtained abroad. All in all, you'll find his book stimulating and enlightening. It is published by Dorrance and costs $1.25.

I've very nearly stopped trying. “Twilands is, In a way, half mine, you see. It's my home. I couldn't pass up Twilands—* He paused uncertainly. “Os course, I have my own income, but it’s tied up so my uncle really can supervise the spending of every dime. At the mines lam someone. The whole place belongs to us. "We have a huge house—you should see those houses in the tropics! Hisph, wide and handsome. Latticed to let the air in and not a pane of glass in the whole build- , ing. We dine on the veranda, watching the fireflies in the dark. “We have books—not too many, because the insects destroy the bindings. They feast on bookbind- . ers’ glue, it seems. We have huge beds like King What’s-his-name died in, with netting draped over the | sides. I shouldn’t say we rough it. "There's a golf club near enough | for convenience. And we have our i island. We go .there occasionally for holidays.” n n a THEY walked a few moments and then Barry continued, “You can buy a linen suit down there for 80 cents ” "Help!” Mona exclaimed, laughing. “I see I was wrong! You don’t rough it at all! Remember, I live on wicked, costly Third avenue!” The dogs came tumbling out to meet them. The valley, smoke-filled, stretched out invitingly. Lacy trees waved their tender branches. Mona and Barry strolled across the golf course toward a clump of ! maples. '

repeal approaches dry legislators, they seem to lay themselves open to advances that can be, at the best, termed “ungentlemanly.” A case in point is this:, The other day a young Indianapolis matron, who is accorded respect by all who know her, was soliciting votes for the Wright law repeal bill in the senate. She was introduced to a dry senator from a neighboring county. u n tt Presenting the arguments of the repealists, she was amazed to hear him say: “I don't want to talk about it here, but if you come up to my hotel room—alone—l will listen to you.” Believing that she had not heard him correctly, she continued, explaining the wet cause, and again she was interrupted. This time with the following invitation: “I am a dry and will vote that way, but if you will come up to my hotel room alone, I will give you a drink of some fine liquor I’ve got and then I will see what I can do for you.” For a moment she gazed at him aghast, and then, turning on her heel, left the senate chamber. Her husband is in doubt whether to horsewhip the senator or Ignore the matter. The horse is a noble animal—a whip used on the horse is too good for the so-called senator. tt M tt This is but one of several incidents reported during the session. There must be something fundamentally wrong with the type of man elected to legislate for fellow citizens, who believes that a woman advocating repeal of the Wrj#ht law is open to advances. It is an insult to the thousands of Hoosier mothers who. after watching the failure of prohibition for more than a decade, are clamoring for a reform that will take liquor drinking out of the high schools and college dances and put it back where it belongs. Some new senators and represenatives in the next session would be a good thing for all.

When Tarzan, under guard, came from the quarries to the earth’s surface, he greeted the sunlight and fresh air with almost a sob of gratitude. Again he viewed the domes of Veltorismakus with amazement. They appeared definitely larger since he was now one-fourth the size he had been.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

“I wint to show you my little camp.” Barry said. “I had it built when I was in college. We dammed the stream and when there was skating I used to have parties there.” A half-mile farther the camp, a small affair at the water’s edge, came into view. There was a wide veranWa piled with chairs tipped against the storms. The door was locked and above It, on a high sill, was a, white chalk line. Barry raised on tiptoe, drew his hand along the line and found the key. “Careful of the rug there,” he called, as he swung the door open. Too late! Mona had not seen the carpet rolled at her feet.

tripped and stumbled. Barry caught her. “Great Scott! You aren't hurt?” He raised her in his arms. $ fragile burden, and swung her into the room. On her fe*t once more, breathless. Mona stood laughing. Barry regarded her seriously. "That’s an old-fashioned custom, isn't it? I’ve heard it somewhere. Swinging ones bride over the sill!’” MUM MONA felt frozen in her tracks. Strangly, Barry avoided her eyes and went to explore the living room of the camp. He knelt at the fireplace and nodded with approval when he saw that a fire had been laid. Without speaking, Mona followed him slowly.

The room was cold and chilly. The rugs had been rolled and were standing about the walls, the chairs dusty and old, but comfortable. There svere camp beds, denim covered and pillowed. Table, a wide buffet at one end and beyond a kitchen, well stocked with staples and canned goods. Barry, busy at the closet now, was taking rapid stock of the supply. “Do you think it would be fun to have supper down here?” he asked. “I’ll get Jimmy to hunt up some steaks and we can bring Jean to fix something to go with it. “I’ll cook the steaks on the grill myself. That’s something I miss at the mine!" *- “I’d love it!” Mona told him, tremulously.

They halted before a guarded doorway and one of the warriors said to the sentinel: ‘'Tell Zoanthrohago we have brought Zuanthrol, The Gfciant, and another slave who can communicate unth him in a strange tongue.” The sentinel struck a heavy gong with his lance.

He had said the word “bride" and then, without warning, he had apparently forgotten her. He deliberately had dropped the subject. Barry closed the kitchen door, kicked at the wood basket, tested the lights, and said finally, “Well, shall we go back? We seem to be more or less deserting our guests, don’t we?” Looking at him, Mona realized that he had not been conscious of the pronoun. They went out on the veranda and Barry locked the door, replacing the key. “You're shivering,” he said abruptly. “We'd better walk rapidly.” (To Be Continued)

MIDDIE CLASSJMALLER Only 325 Scheduled to Enter Annapolis Academy. By 7’imc* Sptrial ANNAPOLIS, Md.. Aug. 9.— The new fourth class at the Nav*l Academy will be the smallest for years. Academy officials state that its final strength will be about 325. For a number of years, new classes have averaged about 600. Drop in membership is due primarily to a change in the law by which members of congress are allowed three appointments each, instead of four. . In many cases, 1 they had exhausted all their appointments and could make no designation for this year's class.

They came into the presence of a gorgeously garbed warrior seated behind a large table, on which were numerous Instruments and cumbersome volumes. He was the mighty walmak, Zoanthrohago, whose uncanny science had reduced the lord of the jungle to his diminutive size.
