Scott overtakes her and carries her to his home, nearby. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER ELEVEN DANA repeated Scott's words, her eyes widening. “This is where you live—? But how—?” “I was looking out the window,’’ j he told her, “and cursing my luck to have a storm like this come up while my car’s in the shop. And then I saw you. There wasn't anything to do but go after you.’’ Dana was looking about the room. It was wide and cozy, with easy chairs, a fireplace and bookshelves filled with books. An old room, Dana saw, but it had escaped shabbiness. It even had distinction of a sort., with its mellow wood paneling. The rugs were old, but they had once been good. A lamp glowed cheerfully on the table where books and magazines were scattered. She nodded appreciatively. “It’s a nice room.” Scott said, “I wanted you to like it. And now we ll have to find you something dry and get you out ol those wet things. I’ll build a fire to dry your dress and shoes. Then I’ll call a taxi.” “Oh, no,” Dana protested. “If you have a coat you can lend me I'll just slip it over my dress." “Listen,” Scott said firmly, “I’m a doctor, but I don’t want you as a pneumonia patient.” He flung open the door of the adjoining room. “You'll find a dressing robe in the closet.” Dana found herself obeying. She stepped into the next room, caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror. Her wet hair straggling across her white cheeks, and her beret was a sodden ball atop her head. Her dress clung to her body. Water was oozing from her soaked white sandals. Scott was probably right; she might be ill if she didn’t change. And besides it was mighty uncomfortable being wringing wet. a tt a DANA emerged a few minutes later in a gayly striped dressing robe, wrapped about her slim body and securely tied. On her feet were Scott’s bedroom slippers. “I thought,” she explained, “that as long as I was ordered to change I might as well put on these, too.” A grin spread over Scott’s face. Dana said, a little ruefully, ”1 know I’m funny-looking.” “Yes, you are.” Scott agreed, “But even in that outfit you're quite ador- j able. I'm going now to change my j suit. Lucky I have another onei“j While Scott was dressing Dan:, j spread her wet dress on the brass j fender and placed her shoes near j the fire. Scott returned quickly, having j contrived, somehow, to look immaculate without appearing stiffly groomed. He went to the telephone and called a number. Dana heard his voice protesting, “But this is an emergency. I’ve got to have a taxi. Get one out here and I’ll make it worth your while.” He hung up and called another number, with no greater success. Then he came to the door, and stood there, frowning a little. Dana sat on a footstool near the fire, the light bringing out the bronze gleams in her hair. She 1 looked very slight and boyish with the man's robe belted about her, her feet lost in Scott's leather bedroom slippers. “All the taxi places say they have a waiting list a mile long. It means an hour's wait, at least.” Dana said cheerfully. “Well, that’s all right—now that I’m good and dry.” “I was all kinds of an idiot to bring you here,” Scott said slowly. “Regardless of the fact that you are an ornament to m.v hearthstone I’m going to have to get you home in a hurry. While we’re waiting for your dress to dry and the cab list to shrink I’ll stir up some eggs and make coffee. Sorry there’s not much else to offer. The only meal I have here is breakfast, and I didn’t foresee that my car would be in the shop at the same time the elements would choose to play the devil.” a a a THE elements still were playing the devil, Dana thought. Rain was pouring against the windowpanes as though a giant hand were dashing buckets of water from above. Now and then there was a roar of thunder, followed by vivid streaks of lightning. But there was a feeling of security in the cozy, unpretentious room with the firelight playing softly on the satiny surface of old wood and bringing out the warm tones of the rug. “Let me help.” Dana offered. “Can you cook?” “Try me,” Dana boasted. “Nobody can make a better omelet. It’s one of my specialties. “Just for that bragging I’m going ! to turn the kitchen over to you,” Scott said. “All right. But first I’ll callGrandmother and tell her not to worry.” She got Aunt Ellen on the phone. The receiver against her ear crackled alarmingly, followed by an ominous roar of thunder. Dana said quickly. “I’m having dinner with a friend, Aunt Ellen. I’ll be home later.” It wasn’t possible to go into details with a storm roaring about your ears. Besides it would require a lot oi explaining to tell the whole story. No use worrying them all for nothing. When they heard just how it had all happened they couldn’t blame her. Newspapers next day were to record that the storm was one of the worst that had struck the town in years, to describe the uprooting of trees and how tops were lifted from frail houses and lines of communication blown down. Floods of water had poured tempestuously over the city. Scott and Dana gayly prepared

‘Smoothies’ the Word for Those Alluring, Formals

BY GERTRUDE BAILEY WANTED by every daughter home from school for the holiday; A “smoothie" evening dress and a floor-length evening wrap. A frantic note to mother insists that some part of the week-end be reserved for shopping to this end, and “please make an appointment for a permanent wave. . . . I’ve got a date to go dancing Saturday night, and I mu t look glamorous!” New York stores translate the college vernacular, “smoothie,” into alluring chiffon formals. They show them in such lovely colons that mother will have little or no resistance. Daughters will be the first to recognize their charm for dance dresses because of their pleatings, shirrings, or softly flowing and sweeping Inies. a a a a a a RHINESTONES, paillettes or bugle beads in allover treatments for those who really go In for sparkle, and in jewelry trimmings for those who like a dash or glitter, are especially in keeping with the holiday spirit in fashion. ./>? Shops that cater to debutante attitudes have stepped up the sophistication of rY their evening clothes this season. It is apperent in the new and scintillating cniffon formal sketched today, comes in white, flam*, blue or black. That yen’ long pleated chiffon scarf is attached to a half-necklace ot rhinestones, matched by the important buckle at the front of the waist. Radiating pleats give front fullness to the skirt that retains a slim body line at the sides that young figures deserve. j The decolletage is low both front and back, but the scarf barely sug- ' gests a high neckline in front. jP / tt a a a a a Jft NO daughter wants to wear her old short evening wrap over such a if |u\/ beguiling evening gown as this. Not when the smartest wraps are t floor length and come in luxury / 1 j ||K J fabrics. / t \:

The formal coat sketched has great sophistication in silver lame, and is nothing less than divine in oyster white upholstery damask (the answer for a white chiffon formal). it is interlined for warmth besides being satin lined for greater elegance. Girls will adore the tiny standup collar, the nipped-in waistline, the leg o’ mutton sleeves, and the skirt that Lares out at the bottom.

June Willeutts Names Sisters as Attendants Misses Helen Jean ana Hope Willcutts are making arrangements to be bridesmaids in the w’cdding of their sister, l\tiss June Willeutts, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Willeutts, Haverstick-pk. Marriage of Miss Willeutts and Lawrence M. Janeway is to take place New Year's day at the Willcutts' home. Harold Darnell is to be best man. Mrs. Jess Pritchett Jr. and her mother, Mrs. J. Duane Dungan. are to entertain with a personal shower Saturday afternoon at Mrs. Dungan’s home for the bride-to-be. Miss Ruth Repschlager is to give a party on Dec. 23 for the bride-to-be. Miss Willeutts is a Butler University graduate and member of Pi Beta Phi Sorority. Mr. Janeway attended Indiana and Butler Universities. } their “breakfast dinner.” Scott dis- j covered some strawberry jam in the icebox to add to the meal of eggs, coffee, bacon and thin golden toast. A terrific crash of thunder, following a vivid streak of lightning, sent Dana running to Scott. For a moment her head was hidden against his shoulder. “Steady, there!” came Scott’s reassuring voice, his arm tightening about her. Dana lifted a white face. “And I’ve always said I liked mother nature in any old mood,” she said. "Mother nature’s got a job on; tonight,” Scott said thoughtfully, j He still had his arm around her, I but dropped it abruptly. “The old i girl’s drunk with power. It has 1 just occurred to me that I didn't 1 put my house number on that mile- j long list—though I doubt if taxis will be navigated in a storm like this.” a a a TTE was gune quite a while. When he returned his expression was sober. “The phone’s out,” he said. “Dana, I’m afraid this is serious. If the storm doesn’t let up—” "Don't worry,” Dana said, trying not to reveal her own concern. “It can't be very late. It can’t keep up much longer.” “You'd think it would have blown itself out long ago with such violence. But you never can tell—” There wasn’t a doubt that Scott was worried, Dana thought, And it was all her fault. Aunt Ellen had warned her there was likely to be a storm but she had ignored the warning. Scott said dryly, “Storm or no storm, folks aren’t very charitable.” “Gossip, you mean?” “Gossip, scandal—whatever you want to call it. That wouldn't be so very nice for you. Dana.” “Or for you.” Dana said gravely. “After all. you’re starting a career and people might be prejudiced against a doctor mixed up in a scandal.” Scott shook his head. “That’s all right—but the worst of it would fall on you.” He considered her, frowning. Dana’s natural optimism came to her rescue. “Let’s not get upset before we’ve eaten dinner. Anyway, it just isn't possible for such a torrent to last much longer.” They drew the table before the fire which was still burning brightly, the wood crackling merrily as though in defiance of the gloomy elements. Later they washed the dishes, dried them, and then came back to j the living room. Scott tried the telephone again and reported failure. Meanwhile Dana had put on her dress and sandals, which she declared were ! perfectly dry. Once Scott opened the front door but met such a wild reception fr~\i the black furies outside that he ! closed it quickly. He came over to the fire and sat down near Dana. She looked sweet and courageous, he thought, seemingly unconscious | of her rumpled frock, her lovely eyes meeting his calmly. Any other girl Ihe knew, in a similar situation, : would be having hysterics. Scott said slowly, -I'm afraid a taxi couldn't get here even if we could call one. The worst of it is, this hurricane may blow all night.” (To Be Continued)

Radiators Can Be Changed to Improve Home Many a housekeeper thinks with joy of the day when houses did not have central heating, as she glares at that necessary evil, the radiator. Even when the wind whistles about the house and she is grateful for its warmth, the woman who takes pride in the beauty of her home resents the pipes in the corner which stand out like a sore thumb amid the room’s beauty. But this need no longer be tolerated. There are many ways of disguising the heating system. With funds obtained from any private financial institution insured by the Federal Housing Administration, the home owner can have the comfort of proper heating without the oldfashioned radiator as an ever present reminder. However, if you plan to utilize funds obtained under the Modernization Credit Plan for other purposes and do not intend to inclose the radiators, they may be made as unobtrusive as possible by painting them the same color as the wall.

A Day’s Menu Breakfast — Halves of grapefruit, cereal, cream, crisp waffles with creamed codfish, milk, coffee. Luncheon — Cheese fondue, creamed cabbage, apple tapioca pudding, milk, tea. Dinner — Fried rabbit, gravy, mashed potatoes, baked squash, molded vegetable salad, lattice top cranberry pie, milk, coffee.

Don’t Count on Material Reward for Generosity, Goodness, Jordan Advises Giving Is Not Personal Investment for the Future, Jane Says to Woman Whose Relatives Will Not Offer Her Assistance. Everybody in trouble knows the help that comes from the statement ot the ease to a sympathetic person. Put your problems in a letter to Jane Jordan todav! • Dear Jane Jordan—You say one gets out of life just what one puts into it. That is far from the truth in my case and other cases I know. For years I was the attentive sister m oui household. Wnen sister, niece or nephew needed new clothes. I bought them from my own money, earned by hard work with the sick, by sleepless nights and nerve wracking cases. For years I tenderly tied numerous Christmas gifts for various relatives. I really never expected a gift in return. But years have passed and I am quite ill. I have married and have three little children.

My husband lost his work and we are in poverty. Did these that should care come to my aid or even offer a helping hand? No! Far from it. They all proved failweather relatives. I am 36 years old and never have receved a Christmas gift or one kindness in return for all my help to others. This does not hurt me any more as I have learned to believe “there is none good, no not one.” I have learned that even a life of prayer and service availeth nothing here on earth. I hope to grow strong again and live to teach my children to live by the golden rule but not to expect a reward on earth. We don’t always reap what we sow. But ofttimes our heartaches make us stronger. We can be ready for a better world. Maybe it is not in vain that we suffer. I WAS A FRIEND IN NEED. Answer—The trouble with you is that you did not reckon with things as they are, but with things as they

ought to be. You thought that generosity and goodness brought a material reward, but now you know you can’t count on it. The only reward you actually can count on from giving is the superior feeling it gives von at the moment. It simply is not a personal investment for the future! When you give things to people who can not or will not make an effort at return, it puts them in an inferior position and they feel it, consciously or unconsciously. They accept your gifts because of their need cr because of their acquisitive natures, but they resent your occupancy of the superior position. The most convenient mechanism for alleviating the discomfort of receiving more than one deserves is to forget all about it. It is only the unusual human being who does not forget his obligations but pays them in full when he has the opportunitv to do so. I still say you got out of life what you put into it. Voluntarily you put yourself in the sacrificial position and in the sacrificial position you remain. You did not expect an equal relationship with your family and you did not get it. All that you cling to now is the hope of reward in a future life which none of us know anything about. Wouldn’t it be better to teach your children a more practical philosophy which would net them some returns here on earth when they need it the most? Life is an experiment in co-operation and those who do not co-operate are not entitled to receive from those who do. The only way to help others is to encourage them to use their own powers in useful occupations and pay for what they get. If they do not do so they must go down in defeat. If you are too kind-hearted to exclude unco-operative individuals, give to them if you must, but exnect nothing in return. It is possible to make too few’ demands on others as well as too many. You have made too few- demands on your relatives and their behavior is .just what you should have expected.

Fresh Beauty Will Brighten Yule Parties BY ALICIA HART Girls who want to look fresh and lovely during the holiday sea.v. n ought to begin right now to give their figures, hair and faces a little extra attention. Christmas and New Year's parties will be twice as much fun if you look slim in your e- mir.g gowns and if your skin is fresh and clear. First of all, plan to concentrate on your figure. Decide how many pounds you want to lose and where you want to lose them. Then get busy with correct exercises and cut down on fattening foods. Take a brisk 30-minute walk each day. If you suspect that you will need anew permanent just before Christmas, start now with reconditioning treatments of hot oil, massage and brushing. If you get your scalp and hair in healthy condition, the wave will be infinitely prettier and w r ill stay in a good deal longer. If your face looks dingy, better indulge in a weekly facial for the next month or two. If you can't get them from a professional, learn how to give them to yourself. You can use a prepared mask concoction or. if you like, any one of the excellent home-made preparations like egg and oatmeal. You ought to start concentrating on enough sleep, too. Proper rest and exercise in the fresh air are two things that will help to make your hair shiny, skin clear and eyes bright and sparkling for holiday celebrations.
