THE INDIANAPOLIS TTMES

BEGIN HERE TODAY Ann Hollister, pretty and 20, finds work in a library. She falls in love,with Tony Mickle, though warned against him by her room-mate. Saram Kent. Later Ann meets Peter Kendall, wealthy and prominent and engaged to Valeria Bennett, society girl. without Peter's knowledge Valeria goes about with a gay set. One night she attends a party at which a man is shot. Peter, learning how Valeria has deceived him, tells her their engagement is at an end. The same day Ann breaks her engagement to Tony. She and Petter meet in a restaurant and discuss their mutual unhappiness. When he asks her to marry him sne agrees. They are married that night and set out for Florida. Peter's mother is horrified by news of his marriage. His sister, Carol, who is much attracted by the chauffeur who drives her mother's car, receives the news calmly. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER FOURTEEN FAST driving brought Peter and Ann to the vicinity of the little Florida home on the afternoon of the third day. Tall pines, palms, huge water oaks. Flaming hibiscus and the more delicately hued oleander breaking the deep green with color. As 1 the shadows lengthened the gray moss, swaying in the wind, was like ghostly white arms reaching out toward them. Ann moved closer to Peter. “Weird, isn’t it?” “Frightened?” He laughed and reached over to give her hand a reassuring pat. No, she couldn’t be frightened with Peter. Peter’s strong, splendidly muscled shoulders, his fighter’s chin meant adequate protection “It’s just around the bend of this lake.” Peter said. And then, “Here we are.” On the top of the slope, almost hidden by orange trees-, was a small bungalow, Spanish . type. A little path bordered by fiowers ran from the steps to the edge of the lake. “Peter!” “Like it?” “I’m afraid I shall love it and you’ll never get me away.” Peter got out. opened the side gate and the big car climbed the slope, crushing thick grass under the wheels. "A garage and everything!” marveled Ann. Peter smiled. “People lived here once, you kriow.” The garage was clean and free froc cobwebs. Ann wondered. And then, as they came outside, Peter sprang his surprise. “See that house. You can just see the red chimney through the trees. A family lives there.” “I thought we were alone in the world.” “Thought I’d make you cook on your—your—” He stopped, embarrassed. “On my honeymoon,” Ann supplied. Well, it was a queer kind of wedding trip. “I expected you to help,” she cunimuej. “Sarah could tell you I’m not much good in a kitchen. But I’m learning. What about the family?” “After I bought the place I realized it would be a white elephant on my hands. But I hung on to it for some reason, and finally I got this family to stay here. I give them the proceeds from the oranges and a small monthly wage to keep things up.” He had opened a door and now’ turned on the light. Ann stood, lost in admiration. The living room was typically Spanish, with its tapesi'ies, it balustrades, dark, ornate furniture supplemented by big wing chairs covered with bright cretonne. “Oh, what a darling place!” breathed Ann. “The bedrooms and bath are upstairs,” Peter said. ‘Let’s have a look at the kitchen.” a a a THE kitchen floor was covered with linoleum in large gray and black blocks, copying an old flagged stone flooring. The room had rough plaster walls and dainty ruffled swiss curtains at the windows. Upstairs the survey led from

Ann’s bedroom to Peter’s. The furniture in her room was painted cream and decorated in roses. Soft silk shades covered the lights. There were gay pillows on the window seat, a gay chintz-covered chair under the reading lamp. Peter’s room was furnished in walnut and there was a practical, green-shaded light near his bed for reading. Ann peeped in at the blue and white tiled batlr A tub and shower. Electric light. '“Such luxury! I thought what you said we’d be camping.” “I’ve run down a few times, so I furnished the place. But there are defects, as you will find out. Sometimes the water runs low. If it does, we’ll do lots of our bathing in the lake.” “In January!” “Lots of mild days. I’ll -walk over and tell Sam and his wife we’re here. “I’m going with you,” Ann said. Not for worlds would she have been left behind in this quaint little house. They started out through the grove. The path was rough and the grove was dark, with black shadows along the path. Ann slipped her arm through Peter’s and trudged along by his side •while he pushed aside branches and guided her through the trees. A light streaming from the open door of the frame cottage made the path clear and she slipped her arm from his. “Hello, Sam!” Peter called. The family trooped to the porch. There were Sam and his wife, a younger woman and her husband, a little girl about 3, and a boy. Ann judged that the boy, who had bright dark eyes, was around 10. “Howdy, Mr. Kendall,” Sam said. “We tried - to fix everything right, sir.” “Everything's fine,” Peter said. “The house looks nice. Mrs. Kendall likes the flowers.” “We have a garden,” Sam’s wife told Ann. “A little patch at the back. We’re going to have lots of vegetables. While Ann was chatting with her Peter was talking with Sam, manfashion, about blights and sprays and smudge pots. Presently Ann and Peter were on their way back to the bungalow, the lighted windows of the house gleaming cheerfully in the darkness. Lena, Sam's wife, had volunteered to do the cooking for the young couple. Sum had stocked the pantry with provisions and would go to market every other day for vegetables. “And so, Mrs. Kendall,” Peter said, “we begin housekeeping.” After she had gone to her ibom Ann heard Peter in his room, softly whistling. Peter whistling The whistling stopped abruptly, as though he had realized how lighthearted he sounded. Ann. lying in her small bed, called to him. “Peter, I feel much safor with these burglar bars.” Peter’s deep laugh. “Ann, you idiot. Haven’t you any imagination? You're a pretty senorita looking through a grill.’' a a a LYING awake. Ann looked through the grill. Watched a silvery moon moving across the sky, touching the leaves with strange enchantment. She thought of Tony. She tried to think of Peter. Visualizing his tanned face, his brown hair, his gray eyes his strong resolute chin. Peter had been wonderful. She could never, never be grateful enough. But she was lonely. lonely! A sob was in her throat. In his room. Peter was probably thinking of Valeria Bennett, just as she was thinking of Tony. Ann wondered, vaguely troubled by the thought, if Valeria and her aunt had been guests here in Peter's Florida home. Finally she dropped off to sleep,

The sun was shining through the window near her bed, making bright patches on the spread, when Ann opened her eyes. She remembered Peter’s lake, which would be sparkling now under the sun, rippling up against the white, sandy beach. It was a temptation too great to resists. Ann remembered Sarah had tucked her bathing suit into one of the traveling cases. She had remonstrated, but Sarah had said that no one ever went to Florida without a bathing suit. The house was very still as Ann. dressed in the white bathing suit, her bronze hair under a white cap, slipped out the front door and down the long flower-bordered path that ran gavly, like a bright ribbon, to the water. ! iXo Be Continued) *

E. M KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League MY friend, Louis H. Watson of New York, came out with a new book recently, entitled "The Outline of Contract Bridge.” It’s the most enjoyable bridge book placed on my desk in many a day. because it contains instructions on the play as well as the bidding. In the past, most bridge books have told you how to bid the hand, but it wasn’t very nice to have some expert tell you how to arrive at six spades and then leave you to flounder around in the dark as to how A J 10 9 V K 10 7 6 3 497 4 2 A 5 AKQS 2 iA 7o 4 Vs4 w c V 9 4AK J 6 w c 4QIO £ .

Another reason I like this book of Mr. Watson’s is that it sells at a price within the reach of every one. Mr. Watson has made a very enviable record for himself in championship play in the last few years and I like his style of writing. For example, here is a hand I have selected from his book, which shows how simply and thoroughly he covers the subject of an elimination and end play. u n DESCRIBING the hand, in his own words, West cashes the ace and king of diamonds; East echoes, so West continues with a small diamond, which South ruffs. You immediately lay down the ace and another club, ruffing in dummy. Next come back to your hand with a trump and ruff the third club. This eliminates the club suit, so you proceed to eliminate the diamond suit by leading the last diamond out of dummy and ruffing in your own hand. There sail is one trump out, so you lead low over to dummy and take with the king. At this point dummy has left one trump and the jack, 10, nine of spades. Declarer holds one trump and the ace and two small spades. You lead the jack of spades out of dummy and play low from your own hand. West wins with the queen. You do this, knowing that West must either lead a spade back into your tenace, or else lead some suit which will permit you to trump in dummy and discard a losing spade from your own hand. The end play can not fail, but if ypu took the two spade finesses, in the hope that the honors were divided, you would lose your contract. (Copyright. 1934. NEA Service. Inc.)

Clinic Will Be Held for Canary Birds jrant Store to Present Representative of Hartz Firm. BY HELEN LINDSAY INDIANAPOLIS canaries will add to the pleasure of Christmas with their sweet songs, if their sweet songs, if their owners take advantage of the canary clinic to be held at the W. T. Grant Company department stdre next we- k. Dr. Richard Hall, a representative

of the Hartz Mountain Company, well known to Indianapolis bird lovers, will arrive in Indianapolis Monday to conduct the clinic through Saturday in the pet department of the store. Dr. Hall will be prepared to minister to ailing birds, clip nails, and explain to their own-

...

Mrs. Lindsay

ers how to encourage them to sing. In addition he will bring with him his own collection of Hartz Mountain birds, to give demonstrations of their singing. Hartz Mountain birds are neither rollers nor choppers, their song including both of these types of singing. While Dr. Hall is here he will explain the uses of the various bird remedies and accessories sold by the company which he represents. ’ ‘Bird Charms’ Offered He will explain that birds, like humans, must have exercise and entertainment. For this, there are tiny “bird charms” which are balls of hard seeds, held together with glucose and honey, and suspended from which are tiny bells. The birds use these as an athlete might use an exercise ball, pecking at the seeds to make the charm swing in the cage, and the bell ring. The hard seeds sharpen their bills, and keep them in good condition. In addition to these there are tonics, foods combined with cod liver oil and other medicines which aid the birds to regain their strength after moulting. Moulting, which lasts from three to six weeks, usually begins in September. Birds seldom sing, Dr. Hall will explain, during the moulting season. Like small children, birds often develop bad habits, from which they must be broxen. If canaries pick at their feathers and eat them, this is evidence that there is something lacking in their diet. For this there are small jars of salve to be placed in the cage, which the bird will eat, and then rub on his feathers. Many canaries prefer to bathe in their drinking water, and keep their cages wet and untidy. To I break them of this habit, and to keep the cages dry and clean, there are modern bath houses, to be fastened to the outside of the cage, just outside the open door. The bath house has a pan-like bottom, which is filled with water, and is enclosed at sides and top with celluloid. The sides are transparent, and the birds can take his bath in this modern convenience without necessitating the removal of the cage from the stand. Energy Means Song Birds sing from excess energy. Because of this, foods intended to encourage their singing are mixed of licorice, flax seed and other seeds which provide energy without excess fat. Among the new gadgets to be purchased for the canary or other bird pet for Christmas, is anew cage shown at Grant’s, which has a wide bulging top. It is designed to give the bird more freedom in flying about the cage. Flying and swaying on swinging perches are about the only exercise caged birds get. The new bulging top cages come in four color combinations, red and chrome, green and chrome, black and chrome and ivory and chrome. At the holiday season many canaries are sold in Grant’s for old persons or shut-ins. Recently an Indianapolis newsboy came into the store, to purchase an inexpensive canary. He selected his bird with care, and paid for it painstakingly with pennies, nickels and dimes. The interested salesgirl watched him take the small cage and prepa e to leave. ‘ls that a birthday present for your mother?” she asked. “No ma’m.” was the answer. “This bird is a present for myself. I saved the money myself to buy him.’’

WOMEN’S GROUP TO HOLD HOLIDAY FETE Holiday season appointments will center luncheon tables Tuesday at a meeting of the Women's Organization of the National Association of Retail Druggists at the chapter room in the College of Pharmacy. Gift exchange will be held and members will bring articles for Christmas baskets for the needy. Mrs. E. H. Enners, luncheon chairman, has as assistants, Mesdames Charles Watkins, B. M. Ralston, F. R.
